Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, he hurriedly nodded and accepted the order, saying, "Yes, sir! I will report to the general immediately and make arrangements as soon as possible to transfer it to Shanghai!"
After putting down the gifts he brought, Ning Zhiheng left the ward and inspected the condition of the other poisoned people. He also paid special attention to Ueno Keisuke. Everything was just as Dr. Shimada had said. The last group of people to wake up generally had aftereffects.
After the inspection concluded and the specific situation was clarified, Ning Zhiheng and his entourage left the hospital. Ning Zhiheng instructed Imai Yuji, "Go and make arrangements as soon as possible. Notify me as soon as possible if anything happens, especially regarding Nojima-kun's situation. Come to me if you need anything."
"Yes! I'll make all the arrangements and take good care of Nojima-kun, so please don't worry!"
Yuji Imai secretly envied Ichiro Nojima's good luck. This injury had actually brought him into contact with Mr. Fujiwara, a fellow townsman. Perhaps he would even turn misfortune into good fortune and have other opportunities!
Leaving Imai Yuji behind, Ning Zhiheng got into his car and returned to his residence. He immediately ordered Yi Hua'an, "I need to see Xuezhi and Zhihong tonight. I have important plans!"
Yi Hua'an was taken aback, then nodded in agreement and turned to leave.
Ning Zhiheng paced back and forth in the room several times, secretly plotting and carefully planning the details of his next move.
Nojima Ichiro's crimes are heinous, and Ueno Keisuke poses a serious threat. Both of them are on the purge list. Ning Zhiheng went to the hospital to check on the situation and prepare to take action at any time.
After seeing the current state of Nojima Ichiro and Ueno Keisuke, he secretly resolved that this time he could not let these two menaces escape again, and he had to take this opportunity to end their lives.
However, he certainly wouldn't take the actual action himself, given his current status and position; he would never risk his life unless absolutely necessary.
This means that the assassination operation must be carried out by their own personnel, but it would be difficult for them to get close to the targets.
Choosing to strike at a hospital would be extremely difficult. Tongren Hospital was a hospital exclusively for the Japanese army, with numerous guards inside, including personnel from the Special Higher Police. Furthermore, it was located in central Nanjing, surrounded by Japanese government offices and departments. If they went in headfirst and made a mistake that alerted the Japanese, the consequences would be beyond their control.
The biggest flaw of the intelligence department is that the personnel know each other well, and no one can afford to make a mistake during an operation. Once someone falls into enemy hands, it will be a huge threat. Therefore, Ning Zhiheng always puts safety first when designing an operation and dares not take any risks. Especially after observing the defense of Tongren Hospital, Ning Zhiheng immediately rejected the operation plan. In his experience, it is absolutely not feasible to take action in a hospital.
But when he learned that the hospital intended to send Nojima Ichiro and the others back to Shanghai, he immediately had an idea. Nanjing was not his territory after all, and it was full of Japanese and puppet forces, so taking action would be too risky.
Since it's difficult to make a move in Nanjing, he'll try on the way to Shanghai. Even if he fails halfway there, there's still Shanghai. After all, Shanghai is his territory. So as long as they're not sent back to Japan, Ning Zhiheng is certain that these two guys won't escape his grasp.
So he instructed Yuji Imai to report the matter as soon as possible to facilitate the transfer to Shanghai, which in turn created an opportunity for the assassination.
At 3 PM, Yuji Imai called to report to Zhiheng Ning.
"Sir, I have reported this to General Uehara. The general takes it very seriously and has agreed to transfer these patients to Shanghai for treatment. He has arranged a special military train to transport them, which will depart tomorrow morning!"
Hearing that the matter had been resolved, Ning Zhiheng felt relieved and asked, "A military special train? That's wonderful! I want to personally see Nojima off tomorrow. What time does it depart?"
Upon hearing this, Yuji Imai quickly replied, "The original plan was to depart at nine o'clock in the morning. Do you think we need to change it?"
"No, no need to change it, nine o'clock it is! I have time right now!" Ning Zhiheng said.
“Alright, I’ll escort Nojima-kun to the train station tomorrow. See you there!” Imai Yuji said respectfully.
