Chapter 440 Everyone is dead, right?
In the following time, old man Takazaki explained some things to the patriarchs of the major families, and then asked Takumi Takazaki to go back and prepare.
Before leaving, Takumi Takazaki looked back at the quiet manor behind him. He knew in his heart that the old family heads inside were really preparing to transfer most of the power of the Japanese aristocracy overseas this time. He couldn't help feeling a little lost and regretful.
What was lost was the Japanese aristocracy that had been passed down to this day. When faced with a newly emerging force like the military, they could have easily suppressed it by joining forces with the emperor, but they still chose to retreat overseas.
Secretly, he let the military take the lead in fighting against China for the country's destiny, while he himself showed weakness and followed behind to reap the benefits. He could also withdraw at any time when there was no benefit to be gained. This approach of Takazaki Takumi cannot be said to be wrong.
But emotionally, this act of abandoning one's own country is still somewhat shameful.
As for his regret, it was the upcoming battle of national destiny. As the first heir to the Takazaki family, he had to hide overseas with the heirs of other families and watch the changes in the situation. He could not participate in it personally like his younger brother Takuto Takazaki.
For a man like him who is in his thirties and still full of vigor and vitality, the only way to express his feelings is regret.
However, despite Takumi Takazaki's complicated thoughts, he still had to obey his family's arrangements.
Just then, a car drove over in a hurry.
An official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs hurriedly got out of the car and handed over a folder with both hands.
"Master, there is an urgent telegram for you."
"Where was it sent from?" Takumi Takazaki asked as he reached out to take it.
"Huaxia, the Japanese Consul General in Tianjin, Horiuchi Gancheng, has just sent an urgent telegram." The official who came bowed and reported.
"Oh! It's that old man Hori, haha, it must be about my brother again. Let me see what's the matter that you are sending me the message so urgently." Takumi Takazaki narrowed his narrow eyes and opened the folder in his hand.
"Master Takumi, has your brother caused trouble again?" The bald young man walked up and asked with a smile.
Takazaki Takumi ignored him. After reading the telegram in his hand in detail, he suddenly closed the folder and asked the official who was still bending over in front of him, "Has anyone else seen this telegram?"
"Report to the master, no, I received it personally and sent it to you as soon as possible."
"Yoshi, you are also an elder of the family. Go back and pack up. I'm going abroad to serve as an ambassador. You just stay with me." Takumi Takazaki said with a faint smile.
"Hi! It's my honor to follow the young master."
Smiling and waving his hand to let the official go back, Takazaki Takumi called the people behind him and said: "Okay, we have something to do again, let's add fuel to the chaos in this country!"
"Um, Master Tokai, didn't the head of the Yingqi family just tell us to be quiet and wait to leave Japan?"
"We're leaving soon, so how can we not leave a deep impression on everyone? We don't know when we'll be back next time, so don't let others forget about us by then." Takumi Takazaki answered with a smile, but that smile was a little creepy.
The people behind him looked at each other, and one of them whispered, "We have connected so many people to organize a big parade, isn't that impressive enough?"
Takasaki Takumi just laughed happily, took two steps forward, approached the person asking the question, put his hand on the other person's shoulder and said: "Of course it's not enough. We organized this parade. Now we are leaving, so of course we have to be responsible for cleaning it up."
Seeing Takumi Takazaki's somewhat morbid smile, everyone else swallowed their saliva.
The young man, whose shoulders were pressed by Takumi Takasaki, asked again in a low voice: "What do you want to do?"
Takasaki Takumi raised the folder in his hand and uttered two words: "Catch him."
"Catch someone?" everyone asked in unison.
"Notify the Metropolitan Police Departments in all places to start arresting those participating in the large-scale demonstrations. We need to arrest as many people as possible before the cabinet reacts. It would be best if some conflicts were created!" Takumi Takazaki said dimly.
"But this will make it difficult for us to report to the authorities!"
"Don't be afraid! Can the family still deprive us of our status as heirs? We are all leaving, so what is there to worry about?
The military is now trying to advance the plan and must be making final preparations. Let's add fuel to the fire and make them more anxious.
It would be more interesting if everyone was in a panic! Let’s get in touch! I hope that tomorrow morning, all cities will start to suppress the marchers and stir up public resentment! "
When several people heard Takumi Takazaki's somewhat crazy words, they felt their scalps tingling, but no one said anything against it.
"Okay, everyone, let's get moving. This is our last operation in Japan, and then we will start to evacuate." Takumi Takazaki clapped his hands and walked forward to pat everyone on the arm.
"Hi Yi!"
"I will go back and tell my wife that I am leaving Japan. I will leave the matter of catching the person to you." Takumi Takazaki said with a smile and bowed slightly to them at the end.
Soon, several of Takumi Takazaki's "friends" left, leaving only Takumi Takazaki and a personal bodyguard at the gate of the manor.
"Master, you..."
"Are you thinking that I'm letting them down by doing this?" Takumi Takazaki said with a smile.
"My subordinates dare not."
"Don't doubt it, I just want to trick them,"
"Ah, why?"
“Being with me doesn’t only have benefits, but sometimes you have to pay a price.
I want to see if they will choose to disobey my orders when faced with issues that affect their own interests. The people I take overseas must be the most trustworthy.
I give them a chance to choose.”
After answering, Takumi Takazaki turned around and walked into the manor. He had no intention of going to the main hall to chat with the old guys inside, but went straight to his own yard.
The personal bodyguard who stayed behind felt a chill in his heart after hearing Takumi Takazaki's last cold words, and then quickly followed.

In Tianjin, Zhou Zhengqing, who knew nothing about what was happening in the country, was in his office looking at Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken who were standing respectfully behind their desks.
"So, everyone is dead, right?" Zhou Zhengqing leaned back, put his boots on the office, looking lazy.
"General, there is still one person alive, but he has already spoken and told everything he knows, and even identified the others.
Moreover, he confessed without being tortured, so I didn’t bring him out.” Itai Yudai bowed.
"Who were the people on the list that the teacher mentioned at the end? Did he say it?" Zhou Zhengqing continued to ask.
“No, that teacher, you didn’t tell me about the list, and I didn’t ask.
General, do you want to know what that list is about?
I just sent a contact code through the contact information left by Shao Laoshuan. We can meet tonight. Maybe I can get the list from him." Banjing Yudai replied.
