"Commander Chang, these people are mostly people who sneaked over from the nearby provinces, and some were even trafficked. So the higher-ups want to temporarily arrange a place here in Zhougang to receive them."
Our division commander should have already coordinated with the South Island side. If you have any problems, you can call back to find out.
Chang Yin nodded. Since they had said that, it meant Commander Kang had already agreed. He agreed as well. There were already enough spies on the South Island. In the month or so that Tang Yue had been gone, several more spy strongholds on the South Island had been destroyed. However, there were still quite a few hidden enemies.
These people are not suitable to be taken to the South Island, and they cannot return home alone until it is confirmed that they are indeed free of problems.
Tang Dong learned from these Chinese people how Tang Yue had saved them. Hearing that Tang Dong was their benefactor's brother, they were all extremely grateful to him and treated him with great hospitality.
Tang Dong felt both proud of what his sister had done and deeply sympathetic towards these Chinese people. He realized that evil in the world comes in many forms, and their family's experience was merely a tiny, insignificant part of it.
The hatred and resentment in Tang Dong's heart slowly dissipated, and in an instant, everyone felt as if a tornado had swept across the ship. Chang Yin and Tang Shengkai exchanged a glance, and then saw Tang Dong stagger out of the ship. Tang Shengkai immediately went over, picked him up, and rushed to the back deck.
No one knew what had happened, and they all wanted to go and see, but Chang Yin stopped them, saying, "It's nothing, everyone just go about your business."
Tang Shengkai placed the person on the deck and said, "Sit down and begin circulating your cultivation technique."
Tang Shengkai's expression was somewhat grave. He had never encountered such a situation before, nor had he experienced anything like Tang Dong's when he advanced. He didn't know what was going on. When Chang Yin arrived, he saw Tang Shengkai looking anxious.
"Don't worry, it's possible, it could be a good thing."
Tang Shengkai looked up at him, waiting for him to continue. Chang Yin couldn't quite put his finger on it either, but because of his cultivation, he recalled many stories he had heard. Those who could attract spiritual energy to form a vortex must have encountered some kind of fortuitous opportunity.
The spiritual energy concentration here is good, and Chang Yin has already arranged for the ship to stop. They can't leave yet; they need to see how Tang Dong is doing. Even if they reach the port, there will still be spiritual energy, but the concentration will be very low, and Chang Yin is worried that it won't be enough to supply Tang Dong's needs.
Tang Yue was having breakfast in the hotel restaurant when a man in a black suit walked in. In a corner of the restaurant, a man in a well-tailored kimono was having an elegant meal. Tang Yue raised an eyebrow.
"Ichiro Hatoyama! Heh, what a coincidence, this is the second time she's encountered him. This nephew isn't very filial," the man in black said to Ichiro Hatoyama.
"Young Master, we've found out that Mr. Takahashi was on the germ-infested ship that happened at Duanqi Port a month ago. He should be gone now."
Hatoyama Ichiro looked up. "Are you sure?" He then slowly stirred a cup of coffee on the table with a small spoon.
"Yes. It should be confirmed. In the past month or so, no force has contacted Mr. Takahashi. The Emperor has not summoned him either."
Hatoyama Ichiro's fingers, gripping the spoon, turned slightly white. This was certainly not good news. He had just struck up a conversation with Mr. Takahashi, and then the man died. Why had everything been so unlucky lately?
"What about Guan Qi? Has the matter been investigated and resolved?"
The man in black paused for a moment. "No. All the various factions have gone to Guanqi, but no one knows exactly what happened there. It's all just speculation at the moment."
Hatoyama Ichiro lowered his eyes in thought. Starting with the short-lived incident, it seemed as if Japan was cursed by the gods, with one mishap after another occurring, and no clues could be found. Each incident was a cold case. Neither the police nor the administrative agencies had been able to find any useful information.
The major clans hadn't received any useful information either, which was extremely strange. "Is Miyazaki Rin definitely dead?"
The man in black answered truthfully, "I heard he was taken away by a mysterious person. It's been several days, and we haven't received any news from him yet. I guess he's already dead."
Hatoyama Ichiro sighed. He had come here hoping to get a share of the profits from the collaboration between the Hatoyama and Miyazaki families, or even to participate directly in it. However, he hadn't gained any advantage at all.
It wasn't that Ichiro Hatoyama was incompetent; it was that he simply wasn't given a chance to prove himself.
"Secretly investigate where Takahashi Shota's germ laboratory is located."
The man in black looked up, somewhat puzzled. This was already Japan's top secret; it certainly wouldn't be easy to investigate.
Ichiro Hatoyama didn't look up. "If Shota Takahashi really dies, the Emperor won't just leave this place unattended. There will definitely be new experts to take over. Investigate the recent personnel changes in Xi'an and within Japan, and see if any of the powerful families have made any moves."
Fine beads of sweat rolled down the foreheads of the men in black. They were practically running themselves ragged just because the young master said one thing. Besides, wasn't the young master overestimating them? None of the things the young master mentioned were easy to investigate.
"Hai! Young Master, we'll do our best!"
Hatoyama Ichiro glanced up at him, and the man in black felt a chill run down his spine, but he braced himself and waited for his young master's next instructions. After a while without hearing his young master's voice, the man in black backed away.
Tang Yue was in a good mood. It seemed the events in those counties had alarmed the entire country of Japan, which was good. Was the Japanese Emperor going to send more people to conduct germ experiments?
Heh, that depends on whether Tang Yue gives them a chance. She still has a use for this Hatoyama Ichiro. After all, if Tang Yue wants to cause some trouble in the Hatoyama family, she might need Hatoyama Ichiro's help.
