Chapter 523 Cabaret Restaurant

 Koike finally understood what Kentaro Uzaki was worried about:

Araki Harima is currently a second lieutenant. This person is an extremely fanatic. All he thinks about is meritorious service and promotion to lieutenant as soon as possible.

"If that's the case, Miyazaki-kun doesn't have to worry." Koike breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

 “Oh?” Cheng Qianfan looked surprised.

"Don't worry, Miyazaki-kun. After Araki-kun finishes his work, even General Nishida will reward him and even promote him personally." Xiaochi said quickly, fearing that Cheng Qianfan wouldn't believe him.

"In that case, I'm relieved." Cheng Qianfan smiled and nodded. He didn't ask any more questions. Although Xiaochi was just a driver, he was the driver of the extra-high-level class and Sanbonjiro. Ask Xiaochi again. You'll be suspicious.

“Then, the share that was originally expected to be left to Mr. Araki will be shared with Mr. Koike.” He smiled slightly and said.

 Xiaochi was overjoyed when he heard this.

 …

The atmosphere suddenly became joyful. The two discussed the specific details and agreed on the time and place for their next meeting.

Xiaochi happily drove Cheng Qianfan out of Hongkou District.

Upstairs, Sanbonjiro stood at the window and saw Cheng Qianfan leaving in the car. He put down the curtains in his hands.

Sanbonjiro knew very well that regardless of what Miyazaki said, the most fundamental thing in his mind was to make money.

Of course, even if Sanbonjiro looks at it with a harsh eye, Miyazaki Kentaro's previous words and performance are excellent.

Sometimes, Sanbonjiro also feels that it is very strange. As long as money is involved, Miyazaki's mind is very smart. No, to be precise, he is a smart guy, but he focuses more on money. Fucked a woman.

 Sanbonjiro snorted coldly.

 He also likes money.

However, the difference between him and subordinates like Kentaro Miyazaki is that although he loves money, the first thing in his heart is still the conquest of the Japanese Empire!

For the same thing, Miyazaki Kentaro would only think about racking his brains to persuade him to take out weapons and ammunition from the imperial arms warehouse and sell them to Li Laosan with nothing.

Sanbonjiro saw a deeper level. Li Lao San's subordinates spent all their money to buy weapons and ammunition. This was just right. Kentaro Miyazaki's greed was bound to cause Li Lao San to bleed. Without the backing of thick money, It will be easier for Sanbenjiro to control Li Laosan's headquarters.

In addition, there is another point. He agreed to Kentaro Miyazaki to do this business instead of recruiting Li Laosan's subordinates first. This was also based on the actual situation:

 The Chinese people's attitude towards the Empire is still very hostile. Some Chinese people may do all kinds of evil and don't mind being a bandit who kills people and sells goods, but they may not be willing to surrender to the Empire.

 First recruit troops through the hands of Li Laosan, and then Li Laosan will lead his troops to defect to the empire. By then, a powerful bandit armed force will be in the hands of the Special High School.

 Mihonjiro had already made up his mind. He just pretended that he was persuaded by Kentaro Miyazaki with benefits and racking his brains.

 After all, privately buying and selling arms requires a reason.

 Besides, "Miyazaki, this guy must be very proud of being able to convince himself now," Mimotojiro said with a look of complacency on his lips.

 …

 Cheng Qianfan's mood was anxious and heavy.

 He can now make a judgment:

Araki Harima has led a team of special agents and is conducting an extremely covert arrest operation.

According to Koike's words, after the success of Operation Araki, Masao Nishida will personally reward him.

In this way, the target level of this operation will not be low, no, to be precise, the level should be extremely high.

 The problem now is that he has no way of knowing which side the super high school is targeting:

　　Red Party?

 Lixingshe Secret Service Shanghai Station?

The Party Affairs Investigation Office has not been single-handedly affected, but there is actually a "big fish that slipped through the net"?

  Or is it his Shanghai special team?

 …

 Father King Road.

 A cabaret restaurant.

 Western-style ‘Cabaret’ is an imported product from the West.

I don’t know since when, many cabaret restaurants suddenly appeared in Shanghai.

These restaurants not only provide food, or the focus is not on eating, but also provide a variety of lively performances, or provide backup dancers, the kind that can be taken out without force after negotiation.

 It’s also Cabaret, but broken down into three types: the first is relatively elegant, the second is kitsch, and the third is extremely liberal.

 There will often be a high-end hotel near the relatively elegant Cabaret restaurant.

 There are short-term rental apartments and ordinary hotels around the relatively kitsch Cabaret restaurant.

 As for the extremely liberal category, most of them are nail sheds.

 There is a current description saying, "Those who are inferior to prostitutes among the flowers and smoke are also called smoke prostitutes. The prostitutes who are in the nail shed are even lower than the prostitutes among the flowers and smoke."

As for how the word "nail shed" came from, there is a saying that a foreign drunkard sailor complained about the poor environment of the nail shed and said: A transaction of thirty cents is as fast as hammering a nail.

 …

 This cabaret restaurant on Father King Road is a relatively elegant one.

Araki Harima came to the door of the restaurant in a suit and a top hat.

He pretended to smoke and observed the surroundings vigilantly. His agents made a gesture to him, which meant that the control had been completed.

Araki Harima nodded.

 He threw the cigarette on the ground, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, held it in his mouth, flipped the lighter, and pushed the door open to enter.

 Three men who followed him entered one after another and then dispersed.

 Melodious music hits the ears.

 The lights in the restaurant are not very bright.

 The decoration style is also dark.

 All kinds of men and women come and go.

On the stage in the middle of the bar, a female singer wearing a cheongsam and a snow-white fox fur draped over her shoulders was singing softly.

 In the dining room below, guests clapped and applauded from time to time, and flower baskets were brought to them one after another.

 …

Araki Harima glanced at the crowd and walked straight towards a booth.

A man wearing a green cotton robe sat there, holding his chin with one hand, staring at the charming female singer on the stage, with an inexplicable light shining in his eyes.

Araki Harima frowned slightly and coughed lightly.

“Mr. Huang, you are here.” Cao Yu turned around and saw Araki Harima. He was startled and stood up quickly.

Araki Harima patted Cao Yu's shoulder and pressed down hard, "Idiot, relax, don't be so reserved."

"Mr. Huang is late, and he will be fined for drinking." Cao Yu quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile.

 Speaking, he snapped his fingers and ordered two bottles of beer.

 …

 The two clinked glasses.

“Is she this woman?” Araki glanced at the female singer and asked casually.

"Yes, Lou Lianxiang." Cao Yu nodded, "This woman is the mainstay of this cabaret. She has good looks, and most importantly, her voice is extremely sweet and seductive. Many people want to get her into bed. go."

 “Tell me the important point.” Araki Harima’s face darkened and he said.

"Previously, it was said that Xia Wenqiao from the Qing Gang wanted to take Lou Lianxiang as his concubine. Naturally, the Cabaret restaurant was unwilling to let go of the pillars. Xia Wenqiao's people came to the restaurant to vandalize and harass customers. This incident caused a big fuss. .”

 “The patrol didn’t pay attention?” Araki Harima asked.

"Father Jin Road is Cheng Qianfan's property. Xia Wenqiao and Cheng Qianfan are doing business together. It is rumored that Cheng Qianfan made the announcement, and it is useless to call the police at the Cabaret restaurant." Cao Yu lowered his voice and said, "It is said that he really likes the upstairs. The person who has Lianxiang is Inspector Cheng Xiao, and Xia Wenqiao wants to give Lou Lianxiang as a gift to Cheng Qianfan."

Araki Harima looked surprised.

 “What happened next?” he asked.

"Although the restaurant has a backstage, it still can't defeat the ruthless Inspector Xiao Cheng and the equally extraordinary Xia Wenqiao, and it can't protect Lou Lianxiang." Cao Yu clicked his tongue, "But just when everyone thought that Lou Lianxiang is going to be eaten whole, guess what?"
