Chapter 127 Toddman's Diary
But we must find a way to control Angelina as soon as possible.
The fact that she was able to obtain this kind of strategic-level intelligence shows that the network behind her is still functioning and has not been destroyed by a series of actions by the Japanese in East Asia.
This is very valuable.
Moreover, Angelina seems to be very keen on collecting personal information of important people in Peking City. If Lin Ze can get hold of this information, not only will he be promoted and make money, but it can also provide unimaginable help to his espionage work.
In particular, Lin Ze does not intend to work for Boss Dai forever.
Since you already have your own system, why not build your own intelligence network?
Even going overseas and establishing new territories in the future is something you can consider!
Thinking of this, Lin Ze put the cup back on the coffee table.
He smiled contemptuously and said, "Mrs. Angelina, this information is worth $10,000 if sold to the headquarters, but not even $1,000 if sold to the Military Police Headquarters. I suggest that you send someone to Tokyo."
After that, Lin Ze stood up and said, "However, I will still report truthfully to Mr. Kitahara Ransuke. I hope we can meet again soon, ma'am."
Angelina clapped her hands again, and the maids came in one after another. Angelina took a card from one of the maids.
"Mr. Lin, I founded a very private club. I admire you very much. Not only do I admire your huge potential and good development momentum, but I mean, as a man, you are very different from those people. You are welcome to come and play with me."
Then, Angelina came over like a fairy again, "I will leave Elena to you. She has never been touched by anyone. Don't worry, I will help you educate her in advance."
Lin Ze felt that he couldn't afford to offend him, so he took the card and left in a hurry.
On the way back to the gendarmerie headquarters, Lin Ze began to check the system reward.
Fragments of Todman's diary.
Who is Todman?
Several pieces of paper appeared in Lin Ze's mind.
The first piece of paper had the date written on it: December 1937, 12.
Ok?
It turned out to be ten days later.
The contents of the diary have been translated into Chinese.
"Mr. Newright asked me to continue working with Japan, but I know in my heart that the cabinet's opinions are no longer important. The will of that group of young officers can influence Japan's choice. Originally, Hirota Koki had accepted our suggestion and no longer forced Nanjing to recognize Manchukuo, but focused the negotiations on North China's autonomy and the establishment of a demilitarized zone. I went to Nanjing in person to meet with Baldy. Although Baldy's attitude seemed very firm and he demanded that the situation be restored to the situation before the incident, I could see that he was shaken in his heart when facing the conditions proposed by the Japanese..."
[Ding! The fragments of Toddman's diary have been distributed in the form of photos of Toddman's handwritten letters to the embassy, which have been stored in the system warehouse.]
Wow, Brother Tongzi is becoming more and more considerate. He even knows to get himself a real thing.
Otherwise, it would be useless to know this information. I still remember the information about Guang'anmen rewarded by the system. If Boss Dai didn't need such information at that time, otherwise, Lin Ze's empty words would most likely not be adopted.
This diary contains a lot of information.
This man named Trautmann appears to be a diplomat from Germany, and his mission is to mediate the expanding Sino-Japanese war.
At this time, the Guo family was arguing over whether to defend Nanjing to the death. Some people believed that since Songhu had fallen, Nanjing could no longer be defended.
Some people also believe that if Nanjing, as the capital of a country, were to be handed over without resistance, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the morale of the army and the people.
The bald man's indecisive character continued to play a negative role at critical moments, and he even held on to the hope of having the great powers intervene and mediate.
He attached great importance to Germany's mediation in particular. He believed that Germany had a great influence on Japan and its words should carry weight.
Because of this constant secret contact and negotiation, precious time was wasted. Sometimes they said they would defend Nanjing to the death, and sometimes they said they could evacuate if they were no longer able to do so.
However, there was no complete and detailed plan for either defending or withdrawing, and the final result was a tragedy that will be remembered for all time.
Lin Ze was a little unsure.
I had just finished scolding Angelina for the information that seemed to be of great significance but actually had no practical value, and in the blink of an eye the system gave me a similar piece of useless information.
He knew that Toddman would continue to contact the Japanese privately for mediation, and he also knew that the Japanese would change their minds repeatedly, which led to the bald man's dream of international intervention and mediation being shattered and eventually the fall of Nanjing.
But how do I deal with these messages?
Not to mention that he cannot provide the source of intelligence to the headquarters, even if he can provide the source of intelligence, would Boss Dai dare to show such intelligence to the old man?
Doesn’t the old man know himself that the Japanese cannot be trusted and that the hope of German mediation is slim?
Thinking this in my mind, I arrived at the gendarmerie headquarters.
As soon as he entered Kitahara Ransuke's office, Lin Ze was a little surprised.
Beiyuan no longer looked listless. He was now upright again and spoke with vigor.
You know what, this grandson has a strong ability to resolve problems on his own.
"Kitahara-kun, I went to see Angelina. This woman is really asking for too much. She asked for $10,000!"
Kitahara Ransuke was also surprised.
"Ten thousand dollars? What information can she provide?"
"It's about Red Russia providing the Guo government with low-interest loans and building an aviation supply station."
Kitahara Ransuke lit a cigarette and pondered for a while.
"Ten thousand dollars is too expensive. We don't have any use for this kind of supplies. Where did she get this information?"
Lin Ze whispered, "I asked her, but she refused to tell me. However, I guess that this person has been entrenched in the Six Nations Hotel for so long, and she is from a White Russian aristocratic family. Maybe she has contacts in both Bingcheng and Shanghai, and has many channels of information! She also said that if we have intelligence of the same importance, we can exchange it with her."
Kitahara Ransuke nodded in agreement, then started to think. Spending money was out of the question. Did he have any information of equal value to exchange with her?
Lin Ze's mind moved, and he suggested: "Mr. Beiyuan, I think we can cooperate with her in another way. If she just provides me with some intelligence at random, we may not be able to use this information. Why don't we give her a consultant status and ask her to collect intelligence according to our requirements? In this way, even if she offers a high price, at least we can use this information!"
Kitahara Ransuke's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Lin, this is a good idea. I will report to Colonel Matsuzaki as soon as possible, including the information that Angelina offered $10,000 this time. Maybe the headquarters will need such strategic intelligence. Whether to buy it or not is up to Colonel Matsuzaki to decide. You have worked hard. Go back and rest first. I will inform you if there is any new arrangement."
Lin Ze stood at attention and saluted, "Ha!"
Kitahara Ransuke nodded with satisfaction and let Lin Ze go out.
Lin Ze thought to himself that he had to find an opportunity to swipe some loyalty cards from his subordinates. If his suggestion was really adopted, he would most likely be the one to contact Angelina himself.
I don’t know if this counts as Angelina’s superior.
No matter what, it's better to be prepared.
After leaving the gendarmerie headquarters, Lin Ze found a deserted place to put on makeup, planning to meet Lao Ma.
