After returning to the hotel, Xiao Lei and I first sent the three Japanese women into the room, then immediately returned to the room, told the cousin what had happened, and asked him what to do next.

After pondering for a while, my cousin decided: Since we have reached this point, we might as well make it clear to the Japanese directly without any more secretiveness.

Going straight in and making a surprise attack may have unexpected results. Xiaolei and I also think that this method can really be tried. Apart from that, we really can't think of any better way.

So, together with Hongmei and Sister Li, we first went to the room of these three Japanese women, and then told the female translator all the ins and outs of the matter. We also found out how we discovered their abnormal behavior when they were under the cliff. After that, how we observed them at night, and everything they did under the cliff, we could see clearly; then, how we came to this hotel, how we found out that person was visiting during the day, and tonight, we From the time they left home, how they were followed, etc., they were all told without any secret.

When the female translator heard what we said, she looked shocked at first, and then lowered her head, as if she was thinking nervously about something.

In addition, Gao Xiazi's life experience and the life-and-death struggle between us and Gao Xiazi were also introduced to the female translator one by one.

The two Japanese women next to us couldn't understand Chinese, so they could only look at us blankly, and occasionally asked the female translator a few words in Japanese. It seemed that they also wanted to know the content of our conversation, but the female translator was patronizing. After hearing what we said, I didn't care about their questions and didn't have the heart to answer them.

Finally, after speaking for about two hours, we were almost finished.

It wasn't until after she finished speaking that the female translator raised her head and told us that what happened today was too sudden and completely beyond their expectation, so she didn't know what to do or what to say to us. , because it involved many secrets, she had to consult the three Japanese scholars and Tanaka before she could make a decision.

We felt that what the female translator said was reasonable and frank, so we didn’t press her any further and asked her to report to the four old men first. The other two Japanese women also followed us. There are only five of us left.

We all felt a little uneasy, not knowing what would happen next.

After a full hour and a half, the female translator came back and said that the four old Japanese men wanted to invite us to their room. They might have something important to discuss with us.

Seeing their reaction, I felt something in my heart. Since these old Japanese men said they had important matters to discuss with us, it seems that our trick really worked.

Those four old men, including of course Tanaka in a wheelchair, lived in the best room in the hotel, which was considered a presidential suite level. It was spacious, bright and luxuriously decorated, and these expenses were entirely borne by them. It seems like you are being generous enough to pay for it yourself.

As soon as the three Japanese historians saw us coming in, they immediately stood up and bowed, with humility and politeness on their faces. Only Tanaka, who was sitting in a wheelchair in his pajamas, remained expressionless.

After sitting down, the three Japanese historians looked at each other, and then one of them cleared his throat and chattered in Japanese for a while. Only after a Japanese female translator did we know what he meant.

The Japanese historian said that they did have a secret mission this time, but due to various reasons, it was not convenient to disclose it to us at the beginning. He hoped that we could understand and forgive them. They were very grateful to us for coming to our rescue tonight. , and was also moved by our candor.

They were very shocked and admired the process of our struggle with Blind Man Gao. Since many of their actions during their trip to China may involve Blind Man Gao, these Japanese hope to cooperate with us and hope that we will also We can help them and deal with the blind man together. Of course, in exchange, they are willing to tell us some of their secrets.

After hearing this, my cousin agreed with a smile.

After saying this, the Japanese historian nodded to the female translator, indicating that the female translator could tell them their secret plan.

It is through this female translator’s narration that we understand the shocking secret.

This secret plan is indeed related to Inoue's book, but many of the details still shock us.

It turned out that Tanaka, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was actually one of Inoue's assistants back then, and he was also the most important assistant.

Tanaka participated in almost the entire process of Inoue dissecting living people and studying meridians, and Tanaka also read a lot of the draft of Inoue's book. At that time, Inoue even said to Tanaka with emotion that based on Tanaka's understanding of meridians, Enough to become one of the top acupuncture masters in Japan.

Why does Inoue trust Tanaka?

The very important reason is that they are from the same hometown, both from Kyushu Island, and their villages are also very close to each other.

Kyushu Island is the poorest region in Japan, and among the Japanese army, most of the most powerful and most desperate troops are from Kyushu Island.

Many of the soldiers from the Tokyo area are businessmen or from well-off families. Relatively speaking, they are more slippery and care more about their own lives when fighting. They are far less desperate than the soldiers from Kyushu Island.

Therefore, even though Japan is small, it still has a strong sense of regionalism. Therefore, since they are from the same hometown, Inoue felt a natural closeness to Tanaka from the beginning. In addition, Tanaka is smart and has a temper similar to Inoue's. The relationship between the two quickly became close, and Inoue naturally took special care of this young man from his hometown.

Inoue even kept some secrets that he would never tell others from Tanaka. For example, Inoue opened up Crazy Six's Heavenly Eye Vein due to his own operating error, which led to Crazy Six's escape. He didn't hide it from Tanaka either.

But Tanaka was also very confident. He had never told anyone else the secrets Inoue told him, which also increased Inoue's trust in him.

Inoue also told him that although Crazy Six's Heavenly Eye Vein has been opened, this method of using external force to open the Heavenly Eye Channel is the lowest level method. Therefore, even if this method is used to open the Heavenly Eye Channel, at most It can only clearly see the movement of the meridians of the human body; other abilities are very limited.

The Heaven's Eye Meridian opened through cultivation methods is the highest level. After opening the Heaven's Eye Meridian through internal cultivation, you can not only see the meridians of the human body clearly, but also know the past and future, gain insight into changes in world affairs, and predict the future.

After Inoue dissected so many living people, he had already concluded how to use internal cultivation to open the Heavenly Eye Meridian, and he wanted to write this discovery at the end of the book.

At that time, perhaps because Tanaka was too young, and the war situation was turbulent, everyone faced the threat of death almost all the time. At that time, Inoue's biggest concern was not Inoue's research, but whether he could Can survive.

Therefore, Tanaka was not very interested in Inoue's amazing discovery at the time. He only felt that Inoue was a research maniac who spent all day studying things that ordinary people could not understand, sometimes to the point of madness. For example, in When dissecting a living person, Tanaka found the process too scary at first. He even had nightmares all night long and was so frightened that he became incontinent on several occasions. Later, he gradually got used to it.

But when Inoue was dissecting a living person, his face was surprisingly calm, sometimes with a strange smile and intoxication, which made Tanaka shudder.

But what shocked Tanaka the most was something Inoue told him. This matter was simply too mysterious for Tanaka.

This is what happened.

One day, Inoue took several Japanese guards to collect herbs in the mountains in this area, because Inoue also discovered at that time that the herbs on this mountain were very unique. Most of the medicinal effects of the herbs here can penetrate directly into the human body. In the meridians, and compared with herbal medicines from other places, its medicinal effects are more flexible and precise, and its function of clearing the meridians and relaxing the meridians is excellent, which is unmatched by herbal medicines from other places.

But because it was during the war, there were likely to be guerrillas in the mountains and they could be attacked at any time. Therefore, every time Inoue went up the mountain, he only took a few Japanese soldiers with him and left all his assistants at the station. He did not want his young assistants to They risked their lives with him. Inoue felt that these assistants of his would be medical elites in the future, so how could they be sacrificed so easily.

Every time they went to the mountains to collect herbs, Inoue and several Japanese soldiers would put on the clothes of local people and pretend to be hunters who went into the mountains to hunt. They would never wear Japanese military uniforms.

Perhaps Inoue was lucky. He went into the mountains many times to collect herbs, but he never encountered guerrillas, and he rarely encountered even drug farmers.

The more Inoshang collected herbs, the more he realized how precious these herbs were. Finally, he was no longer satisfied with collecting herbs in the nearby mountains, so he gradually went deeper into the mountains, sometimes staying there for several days.

Once, Inoue and several Japanese soldiers disguised themselves and went deep into the mountains. However, because the weather was bad at that time, it had been raining for days, and the terrain in the mountains was extremely steep. It was not only difficult to walk, but also very easy to get lost. Therefore, a Japanese soldier was assigned , holding a compass, walking in front of them as a guide.

This Japanese soldier who serves as a guide is a specially trained special scout who is good at survival in the wild. Although the supply of soldiers was tight during the war, especially such well-trained scouts, in order to support Inoue's research, the Japanese army where he worked The headquarters still assigned such a scout specifically to Inoue.

But it was unfortunate enough, because the food and water they brought were about to be used up, and they had to rush back as soon as possible, so they had to march hard in the drizzle.

I don't know what happened, but the scout, probably because it had been raining for days and the ground was slippery, accidentally slipped when he was leading the way and fell into the valley and died.

As soon as the scout fell to his death, Inoue and the remaining four or five Japanese soldiers panicked. Without a compass, in such rainy weather, the mountains were shrouded in mist, and they were completely lost.
