After seeing off Shizuka Fujimoto, Lu Xiyan fell into deep thought. What Shizuka Fujimoto said today is very informative and needs to be sorted out.

First, the US military's bombing on Japan's mainland caused great losses to Japan. Although there are many blockade news from Japan, it can be seen from the aviation photos and intelligence taken by the US.

This has reached the point where the mountains and rivers are over.

Secondly, Japan has become aware, or is prepared to make some preparations for those who have lost the war, such as industrial transfer or other extreme measures.

Lu Xiyan even heard some rumors that Japan would give up its local ideas.

But he himself thought that this was not realistic, at least they didn't have time to do it.

And Shizuka Fujimoto has such great energy to relocate a Japanese local pharmaceutical factory directly to Shanghai, which doesn't sound so real.

Although there are many Japanese factories in Shanghai, most of them are low-end manufacturing, such as textile light industry, and pharmaceutical production and R&D are high-tech industries. They will move to Shanghai at this time unless they have plans to stick to Shanghai?

Otherwise, Fujimoto Shizuka's move would be really intriguing.

"Lao Ma, let's make an appointment with Lao Hu and meet at Guangyuan Teahouse tonight. I have something important to discuss with him." Lu Xiyan picked up the phone and called Lao Ma at home. He needed to discuss it with someone. Only Hu Yunzhi was the most suitable person.

"Okay, sir."

...

Kadori Building, the location of the Japanese army's Shanghai organs, Fujimoto Shizuka went here after she came out of Meng'an Building. She made an appointment with Hattori Chiyoko to meet here.

"How is it, how about it?"

"He agreed, it's very satisfying." Fujimoto Shizuka was also a little disbelief. There seemed to be some problems here, but she couldn't say them.

"We have doubted Dr. Lu in the past, but in the past two years, he has been one of the Chinese who cooperated with the empire most. Although he sometimes has some temper, this is understandable." Hattori Chiyoko smiled and handed Fujimoto Shizuka a glass of red wine.

"Is this your final judgment on him by the Special High School class?" Fujimoto Shizuka asked in surprise.

"That's right, anyway, in the past two years, the TGC has been secretly investigating and paying attention to his words and actions, and found that he had no exception to being not enthusiastic about politics." Chiyoko Hattori explained.

“Where is the No. 76?”

"How dare you touch him on the 76th? Apart from his relationship with Zhou, it is his social status and power in Shanghai. When Lin Shiqun was alive, he had to give him three points of face, not to mention that the current No. 76th is no longer as good as before." Hattori Chiyoko sneered.

"Are you not afraid of being discovered by him if you investigate him secretly?"

"So what if I find it out? Will he dare to touch me?" Hattori Chiyoko smiled coldly.

"Did you really not find anything?" Fujimoto Shizuka was still a little unwilling to give up. She had had a secret fight with Lu Xiyan and was almost caught. This person's wisdom is quite terrible.

"Yes, you Sato Pharmaceuticals secretly smuggled banned drugs, and there are still a lot of them, all flowing into our enemies." Chiyoko Hattori glanced at Shizuka Fujimoto, "For a little money, but the interests of the empire, what do you think should be done?"

"Ahem, did you deal with it?"

"Of course, this kind of behavior of the enemy must be severely punished."

"There is nothing else, like the people around him?"

"What you want to ask is whether the people he relies on are suspected in Chongqing or other aspects?" Hattori Chiyoko said.

“Yes, this is important to my plan below.”

"I can only tell you that there is no abnormal discovery at the moment. Moreover, it is impossible for us to focus on Lu Xiyan alone in the special high school class. Therefore, if there is any omission, it is inevitable that we have not listed him as an important object of doubt. Naturally, it is impossible to spend both manpower and material resources on an empire-friendly person, otherwise we will not do anything." Hattori Chiyoko said.

Whether it is political needs or whitewashing peace, they set a benchmark like Lu Xiyan, whether it is the Wang Puppet or the Japanese side, even if they don’t like Lu Xiyan in their hearts, they cannot easily break the benchmark they set. Those politicians are shameless.

You can't praise them in the newspaper today, and arrest someone for being unfounded tomorrow and throw them into prison. This is not a business that can be done with just one vote.

"What's your next plan?" asked Chiyoko Hattori.

“I want to buy the East Asian Botanical Research Institute.”

...

"Old Cai, make two side dishes, you must have peanuts, and then boil a pot of wine for me to serve." Lu Xiyan walked into Guangyuan Teahouse. The teahouse was closed at night, but Lu Xiyan was the boss, and it was normal for the boss to come to meet a guest and have a meal.

Of course, people outside don’t know that they all think that Lao Cai is the boss of this Guangyuan Teahouse.

"Dongdong..."

Hu Yunzhi came, wrapped himself tightly with a scarf and hat. When Lao Cai heard the sound, he hurried over and took off the door panel, revealing a space where only one person could enter and exit.

"Here, sir, wait for you upstairs." Old Cai also knew Hu Yunzhi, and he was still a brother who had eaten in the pot in the past.

"Yeah, thank you."

"Old Hu, sit down, take a few sips first to warm up your body." When Hu Yunzhi pushed the door in, he couldn't help rubbing his hands. It was already colder in Shanghai in October.

"I'm so anxious to call me here, what's the matter?" Hu Yunzhi was not polite, sat down, picked up the wine glass, and drank it in one go.

"Old Ma told you, Shizuka Fujimoto wants to invest in Meng An?" Lu Xiyan picked up the copper wine pot and poured it over for him.

"Um."

"I asked her to talk to you today and agreed to let her invest in it." Lu Xiyan said.

"Did you agree?"

"I already know the trump card in her hand. Even if I don't agree, it will be difficult for her to invest in Meng'an." Lu Xiyan said slowly.

"Why?"

"She has already obtained shares of Monte, another shareholder of mine, and she is also the plenipotent representative of Sato Pharmaceutical. You also know that Sato Pharmaceutical and I jointly build a factory and indirectly hold shares of Meng'an Company. Although the combined shares of these two are not more than half, this is enough to make her the second largest shareholder of Meng'an Company." Lu Xiyan said.

"Then do you agree to her investing?"

"She acquired Monte's shares and did not directly hold them. She should have asked someone to hold them on her behalf. She did not show this trump card directly, and I have already known this. So, even if she invested in, on the surface, she was only the second shareholder." Lu Xiyan said, "I am still ranked first, although not absolutely holding."

"What you mean is that if you don't agree to her to invest, you may lose the power to control Meng'an Company?" Hu Yunzhi said, "Then can you refuse?"

"Lao Hu, why do you think she is so interested in Meng'an Company and insists on investing in my company?" Lu Xiyan asked back.

"She has other plans?"

"What do you think?" Lu Xiyan said, "Outsiders believe that Meng'an Company's core assets should be Anping Pharmaceutical Factory now, but I tell you that the core assets of our Meng'an Company are Meng'an Research Institute. Even if the pharmaceutical factory is gone, the research institute cannot be lost."

"You mean, Shizuka Fujimoto came for the Meng'an Institute?"

"I always suspected that she had some connection with the sudden outbreak of the epidemic. Later, she joined our company and presided over the copying of sulfonamide. However, she was very interested in the research of our new antibacterial drugs. She always wanted to join, but I was blocked by various reasons. Do you still remember that the letter my student Wu Jinyun wrote to me from the United States was secretly unpacked?" Lu Xiyan said.

"Is it her?"

"There is no evidence to prove that it was her, but I secretly conducted an investigation and it was the one who was the one who was in charge of Inoue." Lu Xiyan said.

"Inoue Department?"

"Yes, you may not know. I remember it very clearly. The first time Fujimoto Shizuka came to Shanghai, there was a person around her who had been with her. His name was Taro Inoue, and this Taro Inoue's uncle is Yuichi Inoue, the head of the Inoue agency."

"I really don't know this." Hu Yunzhi nodded. He probably hadn't come to Shanghai yet.

"After the letter Jinyun wrote to me was opened, Shizuka Fujimoto asked me for leave, saying that she wanted to return to China for research. It took about half a year. I agreed and retained her position in the company and promised that she could come back at any time." Lu Xiyan said, "Then, the Pacific War broke out and I got the news that Jinyun was kidnapped by Japanese gangs in the United States and almost died."

"Do you suspect that Wu Jinyun's kidnapping in the United States is related to Shizuka Fujimoto?"

"Jinyun participated in the 'penicillin' study at the University of Wisconry in the United States. It was only the clinical trial stage at that time, and all research results were not fully disclosed to the public. Lao Hu and penicillin are now worth the market price?" Lu Xiyan said, "If it were you, would you be moved by knowing that there is such a magical antibacterial drug?"

Hu Yunzhi nodded. Although Lu Xiyan's suspicion was a bit far-fetched, there was indeed a connection between them, so he had to doubt it.

What's more, Shizuka Fujimoto still has many doubts.

Now he even took the initiative to say that she had another name, Aeko Sato. Thinking about why Sato Pharmaceuticals took the initiative to come to seek cooperation, and the suggestion of the "joint venture" was proposed by Shizuka Fujimoto, and even sent a message to the Japanese side through the "Wang Puppet" side, he was able to control the pharmaceutical factory, and there was a figure behind her.

Even if this Fujimoto Shizuka is not an agent of the Japanese intelligence department, she must have a very close relationship with the intelligence department, and there is no doubt about this.

Also, no one knows what she was doing in the two and a half years of disappearance.

"So, she came to the door to seek investment. I decided to use the trick to see what conspiracy she had." Lu Xiyan said.

"Will she not doubt you agreed so well?" Hu Yunzhi asked back.
