Chapter 298 Farce

 Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the National Government.

Today, many Chinese and foreign reporters gathered here, all of whom came to inquire about the progress of the Miyamoto incident and the possibility of a war between China and Japan.

In addition to reporters, Shen Jinding, Director of the Asian Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, Gu Jichang, Commander of the Garrison Command, and Bai Wenzhi, Director of the Jinling Police Department, were also present.

These three people accompanied Bai Longdu, the British Minister to China, and Yakichiro Suma, the Japanese Consul General in Jinling, to discuss the issue of extending the deadline.

After a conversation, Sumaya Yoshiro said proudly: "If it weren't for Minister Bai Longdu today, our Empire of Japan would definitely start the war on time.

Then it will be delayed for another day, but there will be no more delay. Once the time limit for finding Miyamoto is up, our warships parked on the Yangtze River will launch a bombardment of Jinling. "

Bairondo nodded, thinking about how many stocks Vicente had collected in Shanghai. He wondered whether the masked man's information was accurate, and whether the National Government could really find Miyamoto Hideaki.

 God bless and hope the plan goes well.

 “Thank you, Minister Bai Longdu.”

Shen Jinding, Director of the Asia Department, first expressed his gratitude to Bai Longdu, wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and said to Sumomijiro: "Consul Sumomi, we will definitely find your vice consul as soon as possible."

Yoshiro Suma sneered: "It would be better if we really find him. According to our investigation, the disappearance of Miyamoto may be related to the Jinling Police Department and the City Defense Command of your country. It is a fully planned behavior.

From the consulate to Miyamoto's home, there is a very remote section, with wilderness on one side and mulberry gardens on the other. We infer that Miyamoto may have been attacked by a giant man in Chinese tunic while passing through this area.

This giant man followed Miyamoto himself within a week. He gave him a sudden blow and knocked him unconscious to the ground. Then he kidnapped Vice Consul Miyamoto or cleverly annihilated all traces of him. "

He was so serious that he fabricated the process of Miyamoto's disappearance as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes, but did not provide any evidence. He relied entirely on conjecture and inference, and in the end he directly drew a conclusion.

“This place is often guarded by guards from the City Defense Command of your country, and the police are also often patrolling. The guards and police are not aware of the fact that something like this happens, so it can be seen that there must be an instigator behind it.

 Gu Jichang and Bai Wenzhi were so angry when they heard his **** rants that they wanted to give him a slap in the face. Miyamoto was not a little bitch. They kidnapped people for no purpose. It was pure nonsense.

Tani Kichang said in a deep voice: "Consul Yoshiro Suma, this matter is related to the dispute between the two countries. Please don't talk nonsense. If there is evidence, everyone in our city defense headquarters is willing to be dealt with according to the national law."

Bai Wenzhi stood up directly: "If it is really my job at the Jinling Police Department, you can take my head off. If not, please ask Consul Yakichiro Suma to apologize to my Jinling Police Department."

It's not that these two people have hard bones, it's just that the scapegoat is big and black. If this word gets out and Miyamoto is not found, it will definitely be Commander Gu and Bai Wenzhi who take the blame.

 So they must stand up and cannot let Sumaya Yoshiro throw dirty water. If the occasion had not been inappropriate, these two people would have sworn that the **** Japanese are really bastards.

Sumaya Yoshiro glanced at the two of them with disdain, and felt proud in his heart. In the past battle of Shenyang, the empire lost one village and gained four provinces. Now that it has lost one representative of the empire, what will be the gain?

As long as Miyamoto's body is found at the agreed place, the gunboats gathered in Jinling can fire their cannons, and the navy can land and move freely, occupy the Yangtze River fortress, secure an alliance under the city, and annex East China!

Is that guy Miyamoto dead?

Since no body was found in Yanziji, it must have been unsuitable for action there at that time. Gong should have gone to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum as planned. He could send someone to have a look tomorrow. What expression should he put on then?

Thinking of this, Suma Yajiro smiled on his face. After this incident, he should be able to return to Tokyo. It is said that the post of Minister of Intelligence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is vacant, and his qualifications are completely sufficient.

Those present didn’t know why he was laughing, and they didn’t have the intention to guess what this little Japanese was thinking. They looked at each other and sighed. It’s true that a weak country has no justice, and a weak country has no diplomacy.

Bai Longdu was a little embarrassed in his heart. The Japanese seemed confident. Could it be that the masked man was lying to him again? But what's the use of fighting for one more day? It's just a few hundred pounds of stock.

             What name should be used to deduct it from the embassy's office expenses? Diplomatic gifts are a good excuse. He looked at the people present, trying to find a suitable scapegoat to cooperate with.

While everyone was having different thoughts, a staff member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came in and whispered a few words to the Asia Director Shen Jinding. Shen Jinding nodded.

Then, he said to everyone present: "Everyone, the reception is about to begin. Please ask Consul Sumomi and Consul Bai Longdu to announce the results of the negotiations just now to calm the hearts of the people in Jinling."

Hakuryudu raised his head slightly, but Sumakichiro said nothing.

Shen Jinding shook his head secretly and led the way. A group of officials from the Republic of China and two consuls followed behind him and walked into the conference room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The place was already full of people and packed with people.

As soon as the reporters saw them coming in, they immediately rushed over and shouted all kinds of questions. The noise made everyone dizzy, but Sumaya Yoshiro was the only one who enjoyed it.

 A Japanese male reporter loudly asked in Japanese: "Consul Suma, today is the final deadline. Will the Empire choose to go to war with the Nationalist Government?"

Yoshiro Suma paused slightly and replied with a smile: "After the mediation of the British Minister Mr. Bailondu, the Empire will give the National Government one more day."

After hearing this, the reporters gathered around the gentle Bailondu and asked: "Mr. Minister, why did you intervene in the Sino-Japanese conflict? Is this London's opinion?" "Don't be anxious, everyone." Bailondu pressed down his hands: "London Although it deeply regrets the misunderstanding between China and Japan, it is not prepared to intervene in the dispute.

 This mediation is on my behalf only. I do not want to see a war between the two countries and cause large-scale casualties to the civilians of Jinling, because I love this country. "

 He made a high-profile statement, and the Chinese people around him looked excited after hearing it. The Japanese should have restrained themselves from the public statement of the first-class minister of a powerful country.

Sumaya Yoshiro also smiled, glanced at the British minister who had cheated the empire, and secretly admired the other party's professionalism and thick-skinnedness.

 Next, representatives from all parties answered some questions, of which everyone was most concerned about the whereabouts of Hideaki Miyamoto. This is the key to the problem.

 Bai Wenzhi was pushed up by Gu Jichang, and he said a lot of nonsense in vague words. In short, he had no clues. The Chinese reporters present looked gloomy and were a little pessimistic about finding Miyamoto.

 In fact, who doesn’t know that this is a trick of the Japanese? Maybe Miyamoto has already boarded the ship back to Japan at this time. No matter how hard the Jinling Police Department tries to search, they will never be able to find him.

Suma Yakichiro was chatting with several white reporters at this time. He told the so-called truth just now. The white reporters exclaimed that the soldiers and policemen of the Republic of China actually participated in the kidnapping.

This is really big news. As for whether it is true or not, I'm sorry, but readers have to judge for themselves. Their job is just to deliver the news to all parts of the world as quickly as possible.

The scene became solemn because of his words. Officials such as Bai Wenzhi refuted his ridiculous statement. The two sides exchanged words in the conference room. This excited the reporters so much that they quickly took pictures.

Although Suma Yayoshiro was arrogant, he was at a loss for words in the face of well-founded rebuttals from Chinese personnel. When he was asked to provide evidence, he had no evidence, and in the end he could only become angry and angry.

“Baga, your country must admit that your civil servants participated in the kidnapping of Consul Hideaki Miyamoto, otherwise our naval guns will hit the urban area of ​​Jinling at any time.”

The diplomatic agreement just reached was thrown aside by him like a piece of paper. Even a shameless person like Bai Longdu looked at him in disbelief, and then became furious.

This person dares not to give face to the British Empire and himself. Bai Longdu decided to pull his **** with a small knife. He must open the eyes of Suma Yajiro and let him know what the strength of the old empire is, bastard.

“Consul Suma, haven’t you pulled your brain out of your **** **** yet? You must abide by the agreement reached, otherwise I will consider this a provocation by Japan against the British Empire.”

"I'm sorry, you are just a minister. I will report your behavior to London. As the Japanese Empire is a traditional ally of the British Empire, Bailongdu, you should stand on our side."

  “Fake squid”

"idiot."

The two of them cursed louder and louder. Bai Longdu, who was about 1.8 meters tall, stood in front of Suma Yakichiro, who was about 1.5 meters tall. He looked like he was about to take action. The reporters were all smiles, even the Japanese reporters were no exception.

 Big news, the famous diplomatic scene during the war finally reappeared.

 “Stop scolding, stop scolding.”

Shen Jinding was so anxious that he jumped to his feet. This was a serious diplomatic accident. If investigated, he, the highest official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs present, could not absolve himself of the blame. No wonder several vice ministers were unwilling to come over.

While the scene was in chaos, a voice suddenly sounded from the loudspeaker of the venue, which shocked Shen Jinding and Suma Yajiro at the same time.

“I am a staff member of the Secret Service of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, Mr. Hideaki Miyamoto. Did you voluntarily and truthfully describe the following conversation freely and freely? Please answer.”

"Yes."

"Well, then please explain why you disappeared on the way to see the envoy Ji Ming, what was your purpose, was there anyone else behind the scenes, and what specifically did he say to you."

“Hai, it was the Consul of the Japanese Consulate in Jinling, Suma Yakichiro, who ordered me to find an opportunity to leave secretly during the farewell and commit suicide at Yanziji or Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum to blame the National Government.

The purpose is to provoke a dispute between the two countries, so that the empire can use this as an excuse to attack your country. He used my relatives to threaten me. I’m sorry, I really don’t want to hurt anyone, wuwuwu~”

 “Boom!”

The people present were in an uproar. What did they hear? Why did Miyamoto Hideaki's voice appear on the loudspeaker, and he seemed to have exposed a huge conspiracy. Where was Sumaya Yoshiro?

Shen Jinding and Miyamoto Hideaki were old acquaintances, so he naturally recognized that the speaker was Miyamoto. When he heard this conversation, he was first surprised, then happy, and then furious.

He looked at the pale Suma Yoshiro and said: "Consul Suma, whether what Hideaki Miyamoto said is true, your government must explain it!"

Suma Yajiro's mind was buzzing. When he heard Shen Jinding's words, he was like a cat whose tail was stepped on and screamed: "This is a lie. Miyamoto was kidnapped by you. This is the evidence!"

   If you come across any blocked words, please tell me and I will try my best to replace them.
