Chapter 1024 If I'm destined to die, can you spare my family?
This shout caused Zhou Weiguo and Asaka Xiuling to exchange a puzzled look.
This person must be an idiot.
Kamii Jiro realized that they came from Yamashiro; they were Yamashiro people.
As an imperial soldier, he was focused on capturing these two men, forgetting about his own family.
As he ran to the door, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Turning my head, I saw that the two people were still sitting there calmly, as if my shouts had no effect on them.
idiot.
Cursing under his breath, Uei Jiro immediately realized that these two had come prepared. If anything happened to them today, his family would be finished. Perhaps they were even monitoring his house now, ready to pounce at the slightest sign of trouble...
The people of Yamashiro are ruthless. They sold Tani Hisao's niece into a brothel, and Prince Asaka's daughter was burned black, leaving only a charred remains.
"Lord Shangjing, what's wrong with you?" A voice asked from outside the door.
Cold sweat broke out on Kamii Jiro's forehead. He turned his head and glanced at them. Good, the two of them still didn't make a sound. One was twirling the dagger, and the other was drinking tea. It seemed that what he had done had no effect on them at all.
"It's nothing. I was just startled by a mouse and lost my composure. You can all go back now." After coughing twice, Uei Jiro dismissed the people outside. As their footsteps faded into the distance, he breathed a sigh of relief and obediently returned to the sofa.
He had no choice. On one hand, he had to catch these two insignificant people, and on the other hand, he had to choose his family.
With no family left, what use are so many honors to me? They're just food to be eaten.
"Tell me, what is the purpose of your visit?" asked Kawai Jiro.
"Calm down." Zhou Weiguo pointed outside; "Why don't you go out and shout again?"
"I wouldn't dare," Kamii Jiro said through gritted teeth. If he had a choice, he would definitely go out and make a scene, but now, he had no choice at all.
The cold, impersonal manner of the conversation was neither Zhou Weiguo's nor Asaka Xiuling's style. Once she was certain that things had calmed down, Asaka Xiuling stood up and said, "I'll go out and buy some food."
She turned and left. Zhou Weiguo watched her retreating figure before throwing the dagger on the table and saying to Shangjing Jiro, "You can attack me at any time. After all, I respect everyone's choice."
You idiot!
Kamii Jiro assured him that he might be finished the moment he got his hands on the dagger.
It didn't matter if he was finished, but his family would be finished too, so he remained unmoved.
Just now, he discovered that the guns he had placed under the sofa were gone.
They already cleared this place out, so why should he, in a weaker position, fight against these two fierce people?
“My family is innocent,” said Kawai Jiro. “Don’t you say that one shouldn’t punish one’s family?”
Zhou Weiguo took out a cigarette; it was from Chaoxiang, a military supply, and couldn't be bought anywhere else.
He tossed the cigarette on the ground, glanced at it, and stood up again.
These cigarettes are not something ordinary people can afford; only high-ranking officials of the empire can afford them.
"You...how could you..."
Zhou Weiguo lit a cigarette and took a puff; "You're quite surprised, aren't you? You've tried to catch me so many times but haven't succeeded. You don't think I was completely unprepared, do you?"
The empire has traitors, traitors of even higher rank than himself, and he also understands the identity of the person standing before him.
"Are you Zhou Weiguo?" asked Shangjing Jiro.
Nodding made Ueji realize that he shouldn't ask questions about the injustice done to family members.
This guy is an immoral person. You can talk to other people about this, but it's useless to talk to this person.
He also understood why the other party had come to him.
“Each serves their own master, and I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong.” Kamii Jiro leaned back on the sofa.
"Perhaps it is for this side, but for us it is a big problem. You should know that after your plan was proposed and implemented, we were almost caught off guard."
Zhou Weiguo calmly flicked away the ash from his cigarette and said, "If the 14th Division hadn't gone mad, we probably wouldn't have been able to solve this problem and would have had to send troops to South Asia. Tell me, do you think you deserve to die?"
Maybe I should die.
Kawai Jiro stared at the ceiling without saying a word. Just then, Asaka Shurei came in carrying several bags.
There are places to buy food downstairs in this apartment building.
He only bought some beef and a few side dishes, plus two bottles of wine.
"Let's eat and talk," Asaka Shurei called to the two who had been silent, after setting the food out.
After the two sat down, she asked Zhou Weiguo, who was sitting next to her, "Where were we?"
After taking a bite of food, Zhou Weiguo picked up his chopsticks and pointed at Uei Jiro; "He realized he had done something wrong and wanted to die."
Bullshit! He never wanted to die; he just wanted to figure out how to convince the person in front of him not to harm him.
If someone is really going to harm him, then he hopes that this person will spare his family.
Don't doubt Zhou Weiguo. On the front lines, he's just an insignificant independent brigade commander. To some generals and soldiers, he's just a soldier. But within the imperial high command, he's viewed with a degree of apprehension. He'll stop at nothing to exact revenge.
He can do whatever he wants; killing innocent people is something he feels no guilt whatsoever.
According to the investigation, several explosions in the Empire were related to this person.
The problem is that the empire has no way to deal with him.
The Empire did send people to attack the Independent Brigade's command, but they were discovered as soon as they entered the second line of defense. Moreover, the Special Higher Police discovered a very serious problem.
Their command post is never fully staffed; there are always some people absent for various reasons.
These people are all Zhou Weiguo's core personnel, so the Special Higher Police recommended ending this operation, which could easily backfire.
"If I have to die, I hope you can spare my family. They did nothing wrong. It was all my decision." Kawai Jiro felt that nothing he said could change anything, so he might as well persist and hope these two would spare his family. As for anything else, he didn't ask for anything more.
I just hope that when these two people do something to me, they'll be quick and decisive, and don't cause me too much torment.
He... he is someone who is very afraid of pain.
