Chapter 40 "Thieves" are for hitting (Part 1) Flying Warehouse Web

  Back at the consulate, Inui Ichiro brought in Yamaguchi Tamotsu and Nanbu Yoshinosuke into his office. Before they could even sit down or have a sip of water, Nanbu started yelling: "Baka yarou! You damn Chinese! You shouldn't have stopped me earlier, I should've killed him!"

  Yamaguchi Tamataro glanced at Nanbu Kiyoshirou with a look of disdain and said, "Nanbu, how many times have I told you? You can't be so impulsive when doing things. You need to think more. In that situation just now, even if you hadn't acted, you would probably have been killed by someone else's bullet."

  "Yamaguchi-kun, what do you mean by this?!" Minami Yoshirō's eyebrows furrowed tightly.

  Yamaguchi Tamataro put down the teacup in his hand with a smile and explained, "Haven't you noticed that there has been a pair of eyes staring at us from behind the screen all along?!"

  Minami Yoshirō calmed down and thought carefully, unknowingly feeling a chill on his back, and a cold sweat flowed down his spine. After a moment of silence, Minami Yoshirō asked, "Yamaguchi-kun, what should we do next?! Are we just going to compromise with them like this?!"

  "Impossible! How can we let them off so easily, Nanbu?! But before we act, we need to figure out who this Chinese guy is that's meeting with us today."

  "Yamaguchi-san, it's not that troublesome!" Imai Ichirō chimed in: "Yamaguchi-san, if you just kill everyone in that villa, wouldn't that be enough?!"

  Yamaguchi Tamotsu and Minami Yoshinori exchanged a glance, then Yamaguchi burst out laughing, giving Imai Ichiro a thumbs up. "Vice Consul, from the moment we met until now, this is the most correct thing you've said. This is what descendants of the great Yamato people should say."

  "Mr. Yamaguchi, you're too kind!" Imai Ichiro's facial muscles twitched slightly, took a deep breath to suppress the discontent in his heart, and asked: "Mr. Yamaguchi, do you need anything else? Just let me know, and I'll do my best to help you with whatever I can."

  Yamaguchi Tamotsu said, "We are now short of nothing but weapons. The ones we carry are the Imperial standard issue and if used would easily expose us. I want some other country's weapons."

  Imai Ichiro thought for a moment and said: "This is no problem. Within three days, I will hand over the weapons to you!"

  Before he knew it, the day had slipped away. Lin Ao Feng, who was idle and had nothing to do, changed into a new set of clothes and came before Cheng Zhi Hao, smiling as he said: "Young uncle, I want to go out for a stroll, is that okay?"

  Cheng Zhihao put down his book and said: "Aren't you afraid that the little devils will launch a surprise attack on this place?!"

  Lin Aofeng smiled and said, "The little devils won't take action here so quickly. Today, they came to probe us; secondly, they wanted to get a clear understanding of the defensive situation here, in preparation for their next move."

  "You little guy seems to know a lot about Japan, huh?!" Cheng Zhihao said with a smile, narrowing his eyes in jest.

  "It's nothing much!" Lin Ao Feng said with a smile: "Young uncle, have you forgotten who my teacher is? He's extremely familiar with Japan!"

  "Ah! How could I have forgotten this?!" Cheng Zhihao muttered to himself, then came back to his senses and said: "Alright! You can go out, but don't play too late. Also, bring your gun with you, I don't want to see anything happen to you."

  "Thanks Little Brother-in-law! I know now!" Lin Ao Feng smiled and ran out of Cheng Zhi Hao's study.

  Berlin is a city full of artistic atmosphere, walking on the street, you can see beautiful sculptures everywhere. After leaving his residence and strolling for over an hour, Lin Ao Feng walked into a Chinese restaurant.

  The girl who was busy attending to the guests quickly walked up to Lin Ao Feng's front and smiled, saying: "Sir, please come in!"

  Lin Aofeng nodded slightly and walked over to the empty seat in the corner. The girl handed Lin Aofeng a menu after he sat down. Lin Aofeng took the menu and placed it in front of him, asking in Chinese, "What's your specialty dish here?"

  The girl was taken aback at first, then excitedly asked: "Are you also Chinese?!"

  Lin Ao Feng nodded and asked: "How is it? Are there very few Chinese people coming here?"

  "Exactly!" The girl said with a bright smile: "Most Chinese people in Germany are busy making a living and don't have the spare money to come here and eat."

  "Since we are all Chinese, you can bring out your specialties. Six dishes and a soup, plus a bottle of wine. But don't try to fool me with the kind of dishes you usually serve to foreigners." Lin Ao Feng said with a smile.

  "Alright! No problem! Don't worry!" The girl took back the menu and left with a happy smile.

  It wasn't long before all the dishes were served. Just as Lin Aofeng was about to start eating, three people who walked in from outside caught his attention. At this moment, the waitress walked past Lin Aofeng's side. Lin Aofeng grabbed the girl's hand and said softly: "They are Japanese, you go and change someone to entertain them."

  The girl's lively eyes stared at Lin Ao Feng for a while, nodded thoughtfully, and turned to walk towards the kitchen behind her.

  "Nanbu, what's wrong?!" An hour later, when Lin Ao Feng walked out of the restaurant after settling the bill, he was stared at by Nanbu Kiyoshiro, who was drinking and chatting with two friends. Hearing his companion's call, Nanbu Kiyoshiro came to his senses and said: "The Chink who just left is the bastard who insulted me and Yamaguchi this morning."

  "What the...?!" Nanbu Kiyoshiro grabbed his companions who were about to chase after Lin Ao Feng, saying: "Let me take care of the revenge myself, you two just wait and watch for now!" After that, Nanbu Kiyoshiro took out some money, paid the bill, and brought his two companions along, chasing after Lin Ao Feng's trail as they left the restaurant.

  It was probably getting late, or perhaps it was because of the rain that had just fallen. The streets were almost empty of people. Nanbu Kijirō and his two companions chased after Lin Ao Feng for four blocks before suddenly losing sight of him.

  "Damn it! Let him go!" Southern Ji Zhi Lang cursed and stopped in his tracks.

  "Nanbu Jun, I think he intentionally exposed himself at the restaurant!"

  "What the...?!" Upon hearing his companion's words, Minami Kishirou carefully recalled and roared in anger: "Hakka Yuurou! You damned bastard, I'll tear you to shreds!"

  "Idiot! Are you looking for me?!" Just then, Lin Ao Feng appeared behind the three of Nan Bu Xi Zhi Lang, leaning against the wall, playing with a lighter in his hand.

  Nanbu Kiichirō turned around sharply, looking in the direction of the sound. His heart suddenly filled with joy, and a faint smile appeared on his face as he said, "You're someone who doesn't take the road to heaven when it's available, but instead chooses to barge into the gates of hell. Don't blame me for not being polite then."

  Lin Ao Feng chuckled and put away the lighter, saying: "Today I'm in a good mood, so I'll give you special treatment. Each of you three can choose your own way to die!"

  Minamoto no Yoshitsune and the other two exchanged a glance, and simultaneously burst out laughing. Minamoto no Yoshitsune sneered: "This is the most ridiculous joke I've ever heard in my life. A Chinese pig actually dares to resist our Great Japanese Empire."

  "Since you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame me for being impolite. Go report to your Tianzhao Aunt now!" As the last word left Lin Ao Feng's mouth, he shot out like an arrow off a bowstring and charged into the midst of the three men from Nanbu Xi, his hands formed into claws. With a speed that didn't give them time to cover their ears, he twisted and broke the necks of two of Nanbu Xi's companions, while simultaneously kicking Nanbu Xi himself to the ground.

  After years of patrolling the south, Xi Zhi Lang instinctively rolled over as he fell to the ground and quickly got up from the ground, pulled out his gun and pointed at Lin Ao Feng, saying: "I'd like to see if your moves are faster or my gun is faster!"

  By the moonlight, Lin Ao Feng glanced at the gun in Nanbu Jiro's hand and joked: "I thought you were using a German Luger pistol, but it turned out to be a Nambu Type 14 pistol. By the way, how do you usually maintain this gun? If you haven't maintained it, I advise you not to use it! The firing pin of this gun is too hard and brittle, and the firing force is weak. Even if it's a thick wooden board, it can't be penetrated. Moreover, it's easy to jam, even if you want to commit suicide with it, it's not guaranteed to succeed."

  "Ah!" The enraged Nanbu Kijirō let out a loud roar, raised his gun and pulled the trigger. But at this moment, the gun in Nanbu Kijirō's hand jammed embarrassingly. Nanbu Kijirō stared at the handgun in his hand in astonishment, slowly lifted his head to look at Lin Aofeng who was approaching him step by step, and without thinking further, he discarded the gun in his hand and pounced on Lin Aofeng.

  "Bang!" However, just as Nanbu Kijirō approached Lin Ao Feng to throw a punch, the gunshot rang out. Nanbu Kijirō, who had been shot in the back of the head, looked at the Nanbu handgun lying on the ground with some disbelief before falling face down. It turned out that Nanbu Kijirō had casually tossed the gun with a live round in the chamber, which hit the wall and dislodged the bullet. The weakened firing pin was then triggered again by the shock of the impact, causing the Nanbu handgun to fire wildly, resulting in the previous scene.

  Lin Ao Feng crouched down, stretched out two fingers to touch Nanbu Kijo's neck, and after confirming that Nanbu Kijo was dead, he stood up and muttered: "The things of you little devils are unreliable. When they should ring, they don't ring; when they shouldn't ring, they start ringing instead. You died by your own hand, so don't blame me! I hope that even if you become a beast in the next life, you won't be Japanese again!"

  "Ding ding ding, ding ding ding" Just as Inoue Ichiro was about to leave the office after finishing his work, the external phone on his desk rang. Inoue Ichiro frowned and picked up the external phone, saying: "I'm Vice Consul Inoue Ichiro, who is this?!"

  "Vice-Consul, good day! I am Director Baer of the Berlin Police Department's Criminal Division. An hour ago, we found three corpses near Bodhi Tree Street and after confirmation, all three are Japanese nationals. So I would like to request that your consulate send someone over to assist with the investigation."

  Imai Ichirō slightly furrowed his brow and replied, "I understand! I'll go there myself right away."
