Chapter 29: Rumors

  Chapter 29: Rumors

  Jin Xue'er quickly led the three hundred beautiful girls out of the Grand Hotel, Wang Changhu looked at the three hundred slender and beautiful young girls, his heart was filled with emotion: "It's said that being an emperor is good, it seems it's not false, these beauties are pleasing to the eye, putting them in the brothel would be a waste!"

  Everyone was gathered together. Long Mei'er glanced at Wang Changhu, who smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've got all these beauties covered."

  Wang Tingyu hummed, and Wang Changhu awkwardly scratched the back of his head, adding: "What I mean is that I'll take care of all your food and lodging."

  Seeing Wang Changhu's awkward appearance, Huang Yue'er burst out laughing and led the way, while other nearby women also laughed "heh heh" and everyone seemed to be closer.

  Wang Changhu decided to split up and walk, with everyone forming groups of twenty people. They would first leave the Japanese concession area and then figure out what to do next. The girls quickly divided into fifteen groups, each spaced ten to twenty meters apart, walking in two lines on either side of the road.

  As he watched the group of beauties disappear into the distance, the Japanese soldier angrily asked the man in the suit: "Consul, why did you let them go? What's wrong with letting them serve the men of the Empire?"

  The consul shook his head and said, "Huatang Jun (Huagutang Zheng - 918 Shenyang Japanese spy intelligence agency deputy officer, now a certain infantry brigade chief of staff), do you know who that person was just now?"

  Hanagawa shook his head; the consul produced a sealed package from his pocket and said: "Do you know this?"

  "The wrapping cloth of a Chinese woman."

  The consul weighed the cloth wrapping his feet and said, "Right, this cloth wrapping is the weapon owned by that person's subordinates. That person is Wang Changtiger, the commander of the newly established Northeast Army Special Operations Brigade. In last night's tragic event, those animals' threat to the Imperial Army was not worth mentioning, but at a critical moment, a brick wrapped in cloth fell down, do you know how many people we lost?"

  Hanaguya said with a serious expression: "The small team at the entrance was completely annihilated."

  The consul waved his hand and said, "You're wrong. This piece of cloth was indeed the main reason why the gate was breached, but when we were trying to rescue the wounded, it was because of this cloth that you hesitated at the entrance, resulting in over a thousand soldiers being slaughtered by animals. This is the shame of your military. A small piece of cloth defeated our great imperial soldiers. You are not worthy of being soldiers, nor are you worthy of being imperial soldiers."

  The consul continued: "To say that yesterday's affair has nothing to do with Wang Changhu, I wouldn't believe it even if I were dead."

  At this time, Huagou Zheng's face was burning like a monkey's buttocks, and his head had already lowered deeply.

  The consul sighed and said, "Let those women leave. If Snow Miss investigates him and we have solid evidence that he was responsible for yesterday's incident, then we can use this as a pretext to occupy Manchuria. Yesterday's tragic event has already occurred, and I know you've all done your best; of course, it's not entirely your fault either. I didn't expect the old Chinese lady's foot to produce such a formidable weapon. Here, take this cloth as a warning: whenever you see it, think of the honor of the Imperial Army, and you will charge forward without any difficulties."

  The consul carefully handed the cloth to Hanaoka Sei, who received it with trembling hands, holding it against his chest and muttering to himself: "Don't break, don't break."

  The consul saw him shivering all over, thinking it was caused by excitement, and obviously his words had taken effect. He said with satisfaction: "You come with me, we'll book a room at the Daiwa Hotel, I still have something to say to you."

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and led Hanaoka Masahiro into the Yamato Inn.

  The lobby of the Yamato Hotel is very large, and the architect has inherited the characteristics of Western architecture, which are high, large, and spacious, making people feel comfortable in their hearts. On the left side of the lobby, several pots of plants were placed, growing luxuriantly, a boy holding a small knife was idly whittling a branch of a cherry blossom tree, with cut branches and leaves scattered on the ground, no one dared to stop him. The consul walked over and said: "Heng Er, what are you doing?"

  Heng'er lifted his head and said: "Xue'er sister has left, and there's no one to play with me anymore."

  He suddenly saw Hana Valley carefully holding something and said, "Uncle Hana Valley, what are you holding? Is it a sacred object bestowed by the Emperor? Let me see!" After speaking, he reached out and snatched it away. With one glance, he cut open the sealed package with his dagger, and a foul smell filled the entire hall. The two of them, including Hana Valley, fainted on the spot.

  The next day, Japan's Asahi Shimbun reported a statement:

  "The Dainihon Hotel in Fongtian, China was attacked with unknown poisonous gas. 132 people jumped from the building and over 300 were unconscious. Due to the extreme stench, the Imperial Foreign Ministry decided to seal off the hotel. For Japanese citizens arriving in China on official business, please temporarily stay at the Imperial Consulate. This is a special announcement."

  Wang Changhu is unaware of these things, he is now worried about the behavior of this group of national disasters and people's calamities; although they have been separated, but these little girls who were detained for a few days are excited to be released, chattering non-stop, the commotion caused by the 300 beauties is unbearable, from time to time some men bump into trees or walls; some even trip over their own feet.

  Maggie seemed to have vented all her anger on the passersby. A Japanese man was hanging a banner on a ladder, Maggie gave him a glance and this Japanese fellow fell off the ladder with a fracture.

  Wang Changhu smiled bitterly, unsure whether it was right or wrong to bring these women to Beidaying.

  After a while, they left the Japanese concession. Wang Changhu ordered Xu Yingfa to find a phone and call several cars from Beidaying, and have Huang brothers escort the girls back; two sedans, one carrying the wives first went back, he led Hu Jingzhong and Xu Yingfa to go to the constabulary to take a look.

  After a while, the car arrived and the girls all got on; Wang Changhu pulled over Huang Yifei and said: "This group of girls is just a bunch of demons. After you and Liu Fang settle them down, immediately dispatch uniforms, and in the afternoon, there will be formation training. The instructors will be selected from the original group of military criminals. During training, I'll let Tingyu preside, anyone who doesn't behave will be hanged and given twenty lashes, including the instructors. Do you understand?

  Huang Yifei said: "Understood."

  Wang Changhu walked to the side of several madams and said: "This afternoon, I plan to organize a team training for them. Tingyu will be on the reviewing platform, you four will divide the troops into four teams, each with one team, and strictly manage them, do you understand?"

  Several girls nodded; Long Mei'er said: "What about those few sisters of mine?"

  Wang Changhu said expressionlessly: "Train together." Wang Changhu turned and left.

  The car carrying Wang Changhu drove towards the constabulary, and as they approached, Wang Changhu asked the driver to slow down, opened the window, and wanted to hear what people on the street were discussing. As soon as the window was opened, the outside air floated in, mixed with a faint smell of stinky feet. Several people exchanged glances, tacitly understanding each other.

  At this time, Wang Changhu heard someone say: "Last night, did you see that animal coming to Lao Bi Zui? There were flying ones, crawling ones; and there were also those who came through tunnels. I heard that more than a thousand devils died yesterday!"

  Another person said: "Needless to say, early this morning, the enemy's hearse came in so many cars, one after another, and they didn't know who they had offended. Even Grandma's foot wrappings were thrown inside. It was said that the enemy's reinforcements stood outside for over an hour, but didn't dare go in. Later, a group of chemical defense soldiers arrived, but it was too late, everyone was dead."

  Another one said: "Look at that corpse! Why do animals always bite Japanese people's crotch?"

  Another one said: "How would I know? They've gone too far with their evil deeds, even animals won't let them have offspring."

  The person who spoke nodded, and Wang Changhu's car had already passed by.

  The further in he walked, the thicker the stench grew. Wang Changhu opened the window halfway and continued to listen to the rumors outside.

  Arriving at a crossroads, they saw a small tavern gathered with people talking about last night's events. Wang Changhu and others got off the car, walked in, sat down at an empty table in the corner and shouted: "Waiter, a plate of peanuts, a plate of braised beef, a bottle of white wine, hurry up!"

  Before long, the wine and dishes were served, and several people drank while listening.

  Someone on that side started talking.

  "It all started with those prostitutes..." Wang Changhu and the others furrowed their brows.

  The person next to him said: "Don't talk nonsense, stop cheating us out of our drinks!"

  He said that person was unhappy, are you listening or not? If you're not listening, I won't tell the story. After finishing speaking, he stood up and wanted to leave.

  Several people beside him hastily pulled him back and pressed him into the chair; their mouths persuading: "Speak, speak, we're all listening!"

  The man who was speaking took a sip of wine and said: "Do you still remember the haunted house at Xiaoxi West Gate a few years ago?"

  Several others nodded and said, "Of course we remember, how could we not? The nine major gates were not closed, weren't they? But what does this have to do with last night's matter?"

  The narrator pulled out a Joy Gate coupon from his pocket and slapped it on the table, everyone stood up to take a look: "Ah" and sat down in their chairs one after another.
