Chapter 2 Chapter 1 Leaving the Team

In a mountain villa at the junction of the Doshi River that flows into Lake Tsukui and Yamanashi Prefecture, Takeda Shin spread out the copied materials on the table, flipped through them from time to time, and wrote on the manuscript paper with a Monbula pen. This mountain villa is a hunter's lodge.The structure is poor, not even 15 ping.There are still six kilometers to the nearest village. Takeda, who is frowning and writing quickly, is thirty-five years old.There is no excess flesh on the pointed face.In the stove behind, firewood was burning, filling the room with warmth. He was wearing a U.S. Army olive green coverall that doubled as a silver-hunting suit.The shoulders are strong and strong, but they always give people a sense of indifference.

Through the blinds in front of the desk, you can see the peaks of Danze across the miscellaneous forest.On the left side of the table stood a huge safe; on the right wall hung a MI rifle converted for hunting and a light Flack automatic shotgun capable of firing five rounds in a row.Bullet belts were also hung on the wall. By the stream in the distance, suddenly there was the whine of a dog.Wu You could not help but stop the pen in his hand. It was the bark of John the Broughton Hart, his boar-hunting dog.Why did it whine suddenly?It's not the season for pit vipers, and even if it was injured in a fight with a wild boar, Takeda should have heard it cry when it was chasing a wild boar.

So, did it fall into a trap set by poachers?John is with his wife Ayuko and daughter Trout, who went fishing for Jiayu. Will anything happen to them? Takeda dropped his pen and stood up.He took off the canvas bullet belt on the wall, quickly wrapped it around his waist, then grabbed the MI rifle, walked to the door, but turned back and fell back to the table. He turned the dial lock on the safety switch.This type of safe has two dial locks, so no secondary lock is required.As soon as the heavy iron door on the safe was opened, I saw that it was full of written manuscript bundles and materials.Takeda also put the materials spread out on the table and the unfinished manuscript into the safe.

These materials are all copies of the instruction letter issued to its Japanese branch by Kullinger Motor Company, one of the three major automobile manufacturers in Reuter, Dayton, USA.This company is doing everything possible to merge Numazu Towa Automobile Industry Co., Ltd., which has successfully applied the engine engine to the automobile manufacturing industry. There are also some carbon copies of the report sent to the head office by the branch company that has achieved seven percent of the expected results. . Those manuscripts were written by Takeda under the entrustment of the "Future Study" of a desaka company in Tokyo, which exposed Dayton Reuter's bad behavior of wanting to transfer the Japanese automobile industry to his own contract factory.

Takeda was originally the third section chief of the planning and investigation department of Shinnichi Motors, a joint venture of the Japanese branch of Kullinger Motors.To put it plainly, he was a covert staff member of the Merger Committee of Kullington and the Motor Corporation... . Closing the safe and locking the dial lock, Takeda stepped out with the gun in his hand.It is cold outside.Under the eaves of the hut, in addition to more than a dozen mountain birds and wild rabbits, there is also a wild boar of about 200 catties that has been disemboweled, and it is hard from the cold.The gravy dripping from its open belly has congealed, like blood-red icicles.

As early as in East Shonan Middle School, Takeda won the AR, the champion of the Middle School Shooting League Airsoft Shooting Competition; when he was in K University, he won the SB, the champion of the Asian Small-caliber Rifle Shooting Competition.He still didn't put down his gun after he stepped into the society.He often finds relief from boredom by grabbing a gun and going to the shooting range or hunting in the fields. In the open space in front of the hut, a high-performance passenger car of the Juyue Te 1600 was parked.This race car comes with a pair of solid wheels.Takeda burrowed into the miscellaneous woods and ran towards the stream.Long hunting leather shoes stomped heavily on the frozen ground.

There is a road five hundred meters away from the creek.Takeda bypassed a bamboo forest on the way, and ran forward in a detour.At this time, a group of bamboo chickens suddenly scratched the fallen leaves with their hind paws, screaming like frightened domestic chickens, leaving behind a burst of violent wings beating that did not match their thin bodies, like red rubber balls. Jumped into the dark fir forest on the left.These bamboo chickens that have been taken away from their nests have also fled to the deep mountains where this kind of mountain bird lives... It is really like my fate being tracked by Kulinger... Takeda couldn't help but feel pain, but for his wife and daughter The thought of him made him extremely uneasy.

Could it be that the executioners of Culin have finally discovered my villa? ……This is impossible……!This villa was bought in cash from a hunter I met at the Yamanashi shooting range, and there was no formality for the transfer of ownership. It is impossible for these guys to know in name.The publishing house will not know about this hunter's hideout. However, the ominous throbbing still hit him, Takeda slightly opened the bolt, checked the chamber full of ammunition, then pulled the bolt tightly, and then pressed the gun grip with his left hand, and stretched out his right index finger. Insert the trigger, place the back of your index finger against the safety on the front of the trigger, in a position ready to release the safety for firing.

Through the observation sighting hole with a diameter of up to 4 mm that is practical for hunting, as long as the range is fixed at 200 meters, large animals such as deer or wild boars within a range of 50 meters to 300 meters can be shot even if they are not used. As for the aiming device, Takeda can also accurately drive the 30-06 caliber, 180 Klein Hiruby Sip bullets into those animals.If it was within fifty meters, even if he put the gun against his waist, Takeda was confident that he could hit the target. Takeda looked around with sharp eyes and continued walking forward.When he reached the edge of the bamboo forest, the sound of the gurgling of the stream reached his ears.

Just then, Takeda discovers the dead body of Broton Hart's dog John. There was a big gash in John's throat.This was not bitten by the teeth of a wild boar, but stabbed by a sharp knife.It fell down after running for more than 20 meters with blood dripping, and the blood stains can prove this. Like a wounded lion, Takeda sprinted towards the nearby stream with his body bumping against the branches.His face instantly turned livid. There is thin ice on the banks of the stream, which is about ten meters wide.There is no sign of the mother and daughter Ayuko. Takeda mustered his strength and called out the names of his wife and daughter loudly.

No reply. Takeda's eyes fell to his feet.Takeda, who has a lot of experience in hunting, found the tiny footprints left by the boots of his wife Ayuko and seven-year-old trout on the frozen hard ground. The footprints are going upstream. Takeda quickly looked back at the heel behind him, and followed the footprints to chase forward.The back of his index finger had unlocked the safety on the gun. The stream was winding, and there were lush evergreen shrubs growing on the bank, so it was difficult to see the scenery ahead. Takeda was silent now.He tiptoed, moving forward cautiously.The heart was beating violently, as if there was a child fighting in the chest. When Takeda found that the footprints of the mother and daughter Ayuko had reached the edge of the stream, he had already walked about 150 meters. On the sandy beach covered with rocks and gravel, mixed with the footprints of Ayuko and the others, there were several rows of footprints of men's hiking boots.Besides, there are traces of fighting... Takeda's heart convulsed as if being grabbed by a giant hand.With his left hand, he pressed the tree post exposed on the slope, and jumped down to the sandy beach.In order to prevent the gun from accidentally firing, he turned off the safety device on the gun. There was no trace of blood on the ground.The fishing tackle was not around either, so Takeda lay on the slope, intently searching for the moving footprints of the mother and daughter Ayuko. The footprints of the catfish mother and daughter have disappeared, replaced by the messy footprints of the men.Takeda followed. Five years ago, a talent scout from Adasong Hochido, an advertising agency of the American capital system based in Japan, who was engaged in market research, paid a special visit to Takeda.At that time, Takeda had just graduated from the Faculty of Law of the university and was working as a social and economic reporter for the "Shonan Daily". The president of "Shonan Daily" is Kawano, the former Minister of State and Minister of Construction.As the leader of the party faction, Kawano, who has his eyes fixed on the position of president of the Conservative Party, made the "Shonan Daily" the same as the Shonan TV Station and Shonan Radio Station he owns by publishing editorials. tool of pressure on the partisans and their opponents. As the "Shonan Daily", which ranks first or second in Kanagawa's circulation, its influence is huge.Major companies not only scrambled to pay advertising fees, but also provided Kawano with political funds. In the two or three years after joining the newspaper, Takeda was extremely enthusiastic about his work.Sometimes the reports he wrote with painstaking efforts, as long as they are not good for Kawano, will be returned indifferently by the editor-in-chief or the interview team leader.Takeda has encountered this kind of encounter several times.So, he started to start a side job——that is, to make gag money.He tried every means to obtain insider materials of large enterprises that were closely related to the bureaucracy of the Conservative Party and developed under its cover, and then wrote them into reports, and used the name of "Shonan Daily" to forward them to those who were hostile to it. company. It was so easy to earn money that was ten times more than the monthly salary.Not only got the money, but also let the person in charge of the hostile company tear up the manuscript paper in person, without leaving any clues, so I felt at ease.No one tipped off to the head of the newspaper.Every large enterprise, in order to avoid the fate of being slighted by participating in the general meeting of shareholders, and even more to prevent the threat of the same industry newspapers specializing in intimidation, has a huge confidentiality fee prepared. Takeda’s father, who died while studying at K University, left him a 200-pound piece of land in Komyoji Temple in Yokohama.When Takeda built his wife a new house there, he completely indifferent to the newspaper work.Every day is spent in hunting, drinking and boring dealings with women. When his mother was picked up by his elder brother who inherited his late father's trading company, Takeda was even more unconcerned and felt lighter. Takeda, who is in the limelight at night in Ginza, is pestered by Junko, a waitress at the "Nonghuile" nightclub, to buy an apartment.In order to plan the money, he used intelligence to extort a considerable amount of money from a pharmaceutical company.But this matter was known by Kawano. It turned out that the company maintained relations with both the bureaucratic faction and the partisan faction. So Takeda was reprimanded by his superiors.But he turned his face and refused to buy it, and said with a sneer: "I will neither pay back the money nor apply for resignation. If you want to punish me and dismiss me, then try it! If you dare to do this, I will punish Kawano for what he did. To reveal the true intentions of Shonan Daily!" That night, in the shadows of the bar street in Isezakicho, Yokohama, Takeda was surrounded by eight young men from the Ginjokai, a violent group ordered by Kawano. Kawano aimed at the bureaucrats to enact favorable laws and decrees for large enterprises and made a lot of money. He also controlled the Minister of Construction, the Minister of Transport and other lucrative departments through his party members, and accumulated astronomical amounts of money.He took part of it and used it to buy off violent groups across the country, bring them under his control, and turn them into death squads for putting pressure on the bureaucracy.Therefore, almost half of the violent gang organizations in the country acted according to Kawano's orders. Takeda and the Assassins fought like a beast.Although he led a life of idleness and debauchery, the body that the hunt had trained him was as strong as ever. Ten minutes later, the fight was over.Takeda's side was cut by a short knife, and his left leg was also stabbed, but the eight opponents, some had their wrists and back bones broken, some had their stomachs and testicles injured, and all lost their fighting spirit. Takeda took a taxi and returned to the Shonan Ilbo office on Kaihe Street.The night duty officer of the social department looked at the bloody Takeda in astonishment.Takeda stared at him sideways, kicked open the locked door of the infirmary, walked in, took off only a pair of shorts, and began to bandage his own wound.After a while, Takeda, who was almost naked, walked into the office of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and stood silently in front of the interview team leader Maeda who hadn't come home after work.Maeda seemed to see a ghost, his face was pale, and his whole body trembled unceasingly. Since then, Kawano did not send any more assassins until Takeda healed his wounds.Perhaps he was really afraid that this matter would be known by the anti-Sichuan faction among the police and other news organizations?However, if Takeda continues to sell information and extort money from big companies, it is unknown what blow Kawano will give him.Surely he'd have some of the police's snatchers arrest him, or make a fugitive charge of resisting arrest and shoot him. When Takeda was in a stalemate with Kawano and his gang, a talent scout from Andasatsu Hochido made a special trip to visit him. The talent scout was Shiraishi, a senior in the shooting department at Takeda K. "There's no need to waste your time. I just want to know your current situation. If you continue this way, you will be killed. How about it? I'll pay twice the salary, so let's change the unit." He said straight to the point. "How do you know my current situation?" Takeda asked indifferently.He thought, maybe this is a set of circles. "Let me tell you something - Andasong Hochido provides part of the activity funds for the CIA, the Japanese branch of the US Central Intelligence Agency. As long as you sign a contract with Andasong Hochido, the state and the public can no longer It will kill you! Please think about it. And give you twice the monthly salary, even if you don’t have extra income, it’s not too low! Moreover, according to each person’s ability, you can also get a generous sum Bonus. After one year, sign the contract again, and you will be able to get several times higher than the current salary." Bai Shiyou said. Takeda then applied for resignation to the "Shonan Daily News". Andasong Hochido is a joint venture between I·G Andasong, one of the few American advertising agencies in the world, and Hochido, a Japanese advertising agency. I.G. Anderson, headquartered in Chicago, has a survey network in 50 countries around the world, with an annual cost of up to 500 million U.S. dollars.Although Andasong Baozhitang is a joint venture, its daily affairs are all based on Andasong's will. Takeda's initial work department was Adachi Hochido Market Research Department.After receiving three months of professional training there, for about half a year, he was assigned to do some basic work, such as using an instant response tester numbered into an electronic computer to investigate consumers' preference for margarine. But it didn't take long for Takeda to feel the boredom of his work.He wanted to tear up the contract and transfer to the trading company run by his brother, but when he thought that Kawano would not let him go, he hesitated again. For months, Takeda revisited his long-lost family life.He no longer interacts with girlfriends, and after finishing the monotonous investigation work every day, he basically spends the night at home.Takeda still wanted a boy after Trout was born, probably because of the looseness of his life, Ayoko was angry and didn't want to have another child. The margarines that Takeda used to survey consumers' reactions were all products of Neo Nachi, a global company in the oil and fat industry.The company, factories and research institutes are located in Canada, but the business headquarters is located in New York.In Japan, it also has a joint venture with a gold refinery.The investment ratio is 55% for the Golden Oil Factory and 45% for Nai'Nazhi. The purpose of the establishment of this gold-Nazzi joint venture company is to give a major blow to the Japanese butter industry centered on the Snow Printing Oil Factory, and take advantage of the situation to squeeze it out.The Gold Oil Factory, which was suffering from a cash flow crisis, was lured by Nao Nazhi and joined forces with him. The butter that Takeda conducts public opinion polls, after careful public opinion polls, is sold outside with a cute and easy-to-remember trademark "Lisa"-this is the result of a research institute in Canada observing Japanese consumption In order to conform to the habits of the Japanese, it was manufactured after dozens of improvements.Of course, while conducting product polls and brand naming, what kind of packaging can win the love of Japanese people, which feature of the product can be told to consumers, and the impression of butter, a cheap product, can be blown into their hearts, etc. The investigation of the incident was also carried out repeatedly by investigators other than Takeda. The new factory building of Gold Natsu is located on the bank of Lake Hamana.Nio Nazhi plans to use the new factory only for the production of experimental products, and the products will not be put on the market unless it is absolutely necessary. For the test products produced by the Hamanako factory, several consumer polls were also conducted, and the test results were sent to the research institute in Canada, and then the production manual of the new product was obtained from the research institute, and the production was carried out—Jinjin Nazhi Joint Venture That's how production goes back and forth. But the gold oil factory is still trapped in the predicament of unable to turn over funds.The president exchanged his own house for money to make it barely maintain.At this time, Takeda was summoned by John Hamaguchi, the manager and international lawyer of the Far East Branch of Neo Nazhi Company, and through the conversation with Harold Funada, a CIA intelligence officer, Takeda knew about Hotomo Adachi Don's real intention in hiring him.... Andasong Baozhitang, through the research and analysis of Takeda's experience and personality, determined that he was the most suitable candidate for sabotage work.Takeda will have to choose between two things: take part in the demolition of the gold refinery's oil storage for a $10,000 prize, under the watchful eye of pistol-wielding Harold Funada, or be quietly He was tortured to death in the basement of the Yincheng Association office. Takeda chose the path of letting himself live. Even now, Takeda often thinks of the bombing of the Hamamatsu Gold Oil Factory oil storage depot, where explosions sounded one after another, huge pillars of fire shot into the night sky, and the blazing flames burned for two full days and nights.... Although he is tired of the daily boring work, in this bombing incident directed by Harold Funada, Takeda displayed a talent beyond his own imagination, which made Harold fall in love with him. . The gold refinery was dealt a fatal blow and almost went bankrupt.Therefore, after five months, the investment ratio of the Gold-Natze joint venture has reversed; Nao-Natz accounted for 75 percent, while the Gold Oil Factory accounted for only 25 percent. The candidates for directors were basically replaced by people from Nao Nazhi's side. In this way, the gold Nazhi joint venture company fell into the hands of the American capital Nieou Company.John Hamaguchi, an international lawyer, and the CIA carried out a lot of activities to get the Japanese government, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry to accept this fact.He also made a lot of advertisements for the "Lisa" brand margarine produced by the New Gold Natsch Company, using such attractive words as "the flavor of northern Canada", thus creating a brand name for the New Gold Natch Company. High profits…. Since then, Takeda has been employed by Foster Motors, the second largest of the three major automakers in Dayton Reuter, and the contract stipulates an annual salary of $50,000. The work of Takeda Economic Management is to thoroughly investigate the parts manufacturing costs of various parts manufacturers in Japan, as well as the infringement of Foster's patents by Japanese parts manufacturers and automobile manufacturers.He also served as Purchasing Manager for Foster Parts Manufacturing Japan.There are about thirty people under him. A month ago, with the poisoning of Kawanopo's bureaucrats, the pressure from Kawano that had been on Takeda's heart for a long time disappeared.But the CIA came instead and entangled Takeda. As a procurement manager, Takeda sent letters to about 300 core factories among the more than 7,000 parts sales factories in Japan to inquire about prices. Among them, 95% of the manufacturers, although they asked Takeda to have a direct relationship with themselves The automaker kept it secret, but negotiated the price on the one hand. Every country is the same, and Japan is no exception.Almost every day, the Automobile Manufacturing Plant issues the highest instructions to its subordinate parts manufacturing plants to reduce production costs.So, running a parts manufacturing plant is not easy.It is even more natural to calculate in terms of supply and output. Therefore, Takeda started price reduction negotiations with those parts manufacturers who quoted prices to him. During this period, he thoroughly checked the production costs of each part, and even made a decision on whether each part should be slightly reduced or greatly reduced. Meticulous investigation. In addition, each parts manufacturer was determined to let Foster buy their products, so even the metal composition of each product, manufacturing process, and even improvement ideas were told to Takeda.Therefore, not only can it be clearly known from the aspect of performance, even the details that the parts manufacturer accidentally missed, Takeda can also judge the importance of each part from a large number of data at a glance, including the conveyor belt, engine repair and other internal organs. Does the part contradict Foster's interests, and does the Japanese car equipped with such parts violate Foster's interests? The purpose of investigating the cost of parts is that Volkswagen is trying to develop on-site assembly in Japan with the expansion of its own engine input range, and then wait for the complete liberalization of automobile capital to prepare for its own free manufacturing of automobiles in Japan.Of course, the biggest purpose is to create conditions for itself to seize the existing manufacturing plants in Japan.Because of the use of Japanese parts manufacturing plants, it can also provide parts for its processing plants in Korea.The investigation into whether Japanese cars have infringed on Foster's interests is to put pressure on the large number of Japanese cars that have flooded into the US market recently, and it is even more likely that Foster can use it to achieve the goal of getting close to Japanese car manufacturers. The event of applying for a license to establish a joint venture automatic transmission manufacturing joint venture, Aisha Vanner, which was widely discussed in the press, is a typical example. The Japanese side always regards the flaws in the car decoration as the temporary negligence of the manufacturer and denies the matter.Even if someone exposes the flaws in its closed radiators, power steering wheels, and sand-cast molds for engine cylinder prefabricated panels, the automaker can rely on the government's overprotection to make huge profits as it pleases. Compensate some money and finish the job. Compared with Unipisa Modas, which ranks first among the three major automobile manufacturing companies, these automobile factories are of course very different.Modas's annual sales are as high as 7 trillion yuan, which is more than the Japanese national budget, and its net profit is as much as 600 billion yuan.But even so, auto manufacturers such as Nagoya and Nissin still have an annual profit of 20 billion yuan, and small manufacturers also have sufficient funds. Therefore, even if automobile capital is liberalized, it is not easy to merge. At this time, it was revealed that Takeda had forced Aisha Seiki, a subsidiary of Nagoya Automobile Works, to manufacture "Nagoya Kurett" brand automatic conveyor belts exclusively for Nagoya Automobile Works, and Foster, Unipisa Modas—UM— — and Kullinger signed a mutual license agreement, which violated the interests of Bob Warner Company.Takeda was disturbed by his dream. Bob Warner (BW) is an authoritative manufacturer of automatic transmissions.Except for Auda Motor Company, it absolutely does not allow other car factories to buy automatic conveyor belts. As a result, UM, Foster, and Kullinger were all accused of infringement of interests from BW.After a long period of quarreling and agreement, the final result is: UM, Foster and Kullinger all signed a mutual purchase license agreement with BW, and stipulated in the agreement: When BW forms any subsidiary company, it shall have an More than half of the total shares of the subsidiary. BW, which received Foster's notice, immediately stopped the supply of automatic conveyor belts to the Nagoya Automobile Works. Once it is accused of infringement of interests, Nagoya Automobile Works will no longer be able to export cars to the United States.Now in the United States, cars equipped with manual conveyor belts are almost extinct, but Nagoya cars equipped with automatic conveyor belts are loved by most American women.Because they can't drive other cars.Therefore, this accident caused the Nagoya Automobile Factory to fall into a panic. In the end, Nagoya Automobile Works finally decided to compensate BW for all damages and ordered Aisha Seiki to accept BW's technical assistance. However, BW, which received special permission from UM, Foster and Kullinger in the agreement, rejected Nagoya Automobile Works' request for technology support and notified it that if it is not established, BW will account for 51% of the total funds joint venture, it will never compromise. In terms of automobile manufacturing, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry absolutely cannot allow joint ventures in which foreign capital exceeds national capital. This is its consistent policy.However, in this incident, due to the difficulties of the Nagoya Automobile Plant, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry had to make an exception to allow the establishment of Aisa Vana. However, if BW Company resells all the shares it owns in Aisha Vanner to Foster, it will provide a breakthrough for Foster to seize Nagoya Motor Company.Of course, if this is not the case, Foster, who has long been coveted by Nagoya Motor Company, will also approach Nagoya Motor Company through its subsidiary Sarupi Amariga, which specializes in racing cars. Takeda was growing dissatisfied with his unscrupulous role as the spearhead of the Big Three's attempt to conquer Japan.He felt like a traitor to himself.If Japan's automobile industry is seized by the United States, it will be completely different from the United States' seizure of the Japanese market for margarine and instant coffee. Due to the depression of the aircraft manufacturing industry brought about by the defeat, Japan's aviation technology fell far behind the world's advanced level at that time-if the technicians in the automobile manufacturing industry who lead the Japanese industry now, they would be like the assemblers hired by the garrison , can only work according to the instructions sent by Dayton Reuter, then Japan will be completely reduced to a colony and will become the second Hong Kong. When Takeda was soon hired by Kullinger, he was in deep distress.Kullinger's method is worse than that of UM and Foster.Of course, the life of capitalism lies in the endless pursuit of interests. For them, what they do is justified... . If Kullinger's funds are converted into Japanese currency, there are 600 billion yuan, and the profit is nearly 700 billion yuan.It ranks last among the three largest automobile manufacturing companies in the United States.The capital strength is less than one-fifth of UM, which ranks first, and one-third of Foster, who ranks second.Still, it's the fifth-largest business in the nation.In the domestic market, the market share of cars produced by Kullinger has reached 18%. However, there is still a huge gap between it and Modus and Foster.So it had no choice but to find a way out in trade with foreign countries, and it reached out to Japan. The target targeted by Kullinger was Donghe Automobile Industry Company.The company has long wanted to export passenger cars and racing cars equipped with rotary engines to the United States, but suffers from the lack of a sales network in the United States.It ranks third in the Japanese automobile manufacturing industry. If it is said that the conditions offered by Kullinger—an annual salary of 16 million yen, and after the Donghe Motor Company is captured, he will be supported with an annual salary of 15 million yuan until his death—there is nothing for Takeda. Attractive, it's unrealistic. High salaries are attractive to Takeda. However, generally speaking, the promise of high salaries made by companies in the foreign-funded system is only for officials when they first take office.When the heads of these foreign companies no longer show interest in those officials, they will be cut shortly. It is difficult for the heads of foreign companies sent from the headquarters to grasp all the conditions in Japan within three years, so during this period, local staff are mainly used to carry out the work.However, because the headquarters only feel at ease with their own people holding important positions, many foreign officials hired in Japan were fired within a year, and the Japanese employees working in those foreign companies were often killed by innocent people. fired. So the promise of guaranteed lifetime employment was still an appeal to Takeda.Takeda thought about it, and finally fell into the arms of Dayton Reuter and signed a contract with Kullinger. Even if he doesn't do this job, there will definitely be someone else to take his place and act as the vanguard to take over the company.Moreover, he would like to be in the history of the Japanese auto industry being destroyed and plotted by others, to speak big words and act as a witness of history.Anyway, Japan's auto industry cannot escape the fate of being ravaged by others. . . . Sometimes he could only use this thought to justify himself as a traitor. The CIA will not intervene in the open and covert struggles among American capital colleagues, because not only UM and Foster, but Kullinger also provides it with funds for activities.Moreover, the invasion of the Japanese auto industry by the three major companies is strongly supported by the US government. Now, Takeda is almost back to his own hunter's den.The footprints in the woods are already difficult to identify, and the footprints of the mother and daughter have long since disappeared, replaced by the footprints of four or five men.Unknowingly, Takeda followed him to his hut again. From the fact that the footprints of Ayuko and Trout disappeared, Takeda speculated that they were probably caught and carried on their shoulders like cargo.His mouth was extremely bitter, but there seemed to be gusts of cold wind passing through his chest. Takeda stopped fifty meters away from the hunter's hut.He peered at the cabin through gaps in the leafless trees. The first thing he noticed was the car parked in front of the cabin with a punctured tire.Takeda's face was sticky with sweat, steaming in the cold air. It was very quiet in the cabin.However, from the fact that the shutters had been drawn, it was known that there was an intruder hiding in the cabin. Takeda thought of reporting the incident to the police.However, even if he managed to sneak into the car cautiously, the tires were punctured and it was impossible to drive it.It will take a lot of time to climb over the top of the mountain, run to Linluo six kilometers away, bring the police, or call the county police station, and wait until the county police mobile team arrives in large numbers. As a result, the lives of the mother and daughter Aizi, who are hostages, are in danger. Takeda lingered under the oak tree.The tightly biting lips seemed to ooze blood.He thought he should get a little closer anyway and observe. When Takeda turned around and was only about twenty meters away from the hut, the door of the hut opened, and a stout man came out with a trout in his left hand.Takeda hurriedly crouched under the shade of a tree. Trout, whose hair was tied with a ribbon, had a thick cloth stuffed in his mouth.Her limbs were bound with rope, and her eyes were wide open, full of terror.The person holding the trout was Yamamoto of the Japanese branch of Kullinger, who had been a subordinate of Takeda.Thirty years old, good at doing violent incidents. In Yamamoto's thick right hand he held a Luka Blanchack 357 large repeating pistol with the nose open, the muzzle pressed against Trout's face. "Get out! Traitor—" Yamamoto yelled angrily, tilting his flat face. "Takeda, come out! We know you're hiding here. Have you seen your daughter? If you want her to live, come out obediently with your hands up!" "..." Takeda was shaking with anger, but he didn't move. At this distance, trout aside, shooting Yamamoto to death was a matter of little effort.But before Yamamoto died, just lightly clasped his index finger, and the 357 large bullet would be shot into Trout's head, shattering her head. "Hey, hurry up... I'm a quick-tempered person. If you come out obediently, you might save your life. We even took your wife hostage. It's useless to struggle!" Yamamoto mocked said. "What do you want?" Takeda finally called out. "Haha, it's really hiding! Do you want something? Don't pretend to be garlic! My class leader. Open the safe and take out the materials!" Yamamoto replied fiercely. "Taking hostages is really cowardly." "What nonsense are you talking about! In the world I live with you, there is no cowardice! This is a world where courage wins!" "So, are you still a Japanese?" Takeda asked thoughtfully. "Don't be kidding! Haven't you been caught by Kulinger's money and done all kinds of bad things?! Now you're a clean Bodhisattva, no way! We live in an equally dirty world!" "..." "If you don't come out, I will kill your wife and daughter. We have the support of the CIA. Besides, in this kind of place, even if you shoot a gun blatantly, no one will hear it. Even if you hear it, people will just think it is a shotgun. Voice." "You can't open the safe without me," Takeda called. "Compared with the life of your wife and children, don't you cherish the information more?...Besides, we have oxygen acetylene around us. As long as we spend a little time, even if you are not around, we can still open the safe." Yamamoto tilted his head Zuiqin said. "I know. But I hope you don't make things difficult for my wife and daughter." Panting heavily, Takeda dropped the gun into a crevice in the rock.Then he undid the bullet belt with the hunting knife stuck in it from his waist and put it next to the gun. When Takeda stood up from hiding, Yamamoto grinned menacingly and whistled. The blinds were pulled up, and three men appeared from the cabin. All three are Americans.其中两个是库林格日本分部人员，另一个则是CIA的间谍曼高乐。 曼高乐把武田的佛来克自动霰枪弹插在自己腰上。库林格公司日本分部的杰克逊和奥尼则手握着S·W九毫米口径的达布·爱克逊自动手枪。三个人都以冷眼望着武田。武田双手举得齐肩高，向他们走去。心中因为恐怖和绝望，直想呕吐。 以区区一人之力反抗庞大的库林格公司，确实过于草率。但这处连出版社都没通知过的猎人小屋，却是怎么被他们发现的呢？ 武田走到了小屋前的空地上。这时，CIA的曼高乐命令他道： "stop!" 鳟子正挣扎着想从山本的手臂中逃出来。武田狠狠地瞪着山本，嘴唇都颤抖起来了。 “把手放到背后去。而且，脸朝背面，给我坐下来。” 曼高乐命令武田道。 “你们怎么知道我的这个住处的？”武田用英语问道。 “我们调查了你的所有的猎友。快，照教所说的坐好！”曼高乐冷冰冰地回答道。 “我老婆没事吧？” “呣。有船田先生在小屋里看护着呐。快一点，照我说的那样坐好！” “老婆和女儿，跟我们的争斗没有关系。请放了她们！” “等一会再说。快，快一点！”曼高乐说完，就拿起自动霰弹枪，朝着武田的头顶，胡乱地放了几枪。 受到了子弹冲击波的武田，不由自主地踉跄了几步。几颗五号霰弹打入了武田的脑袋。幸好只有那么一点距离，霰弹群还没有完全扩散开来。 倘若被霰弹群中的中心子弹射中，那武田的脑袋也早被打飞了。打入武田脑袋的，只是霰弹群外围的流弹，来势较弱，射中了也不碍事。 武田只觉得脑袋象被烧得通红的火筷子烫了一下似地炙痛。从头上流下来的血，弥满了他的脸。 那血流入眼眶，使武田的视线带上了红色，在瞳孔中，他看到了仰面躲在山本臂中的不省人事的鳟子。 武田慢慢撩起工作服的袖口，擦掉了那些流入眼眶的血。他背对着他们坐到了地上，两手围在膀子后面。他的身体已停止了颤抖。 曼高乐朝他走近过来。 武田真想返身回击，但一想起鲇子和鳟子，他又迟疑了。曼高乐给他的两只围在颈后的手戴上了手铐。那金属制物，冰冷冰冷的，似乎能冻伤人。 “好了。站起来吧，把手放到身前来也可以。”曼高乐说道。 武田站起身来，把戴了手铐的手举过头顶，放到胸前，然后，转过身，又对着曼高乐站着。 “鬣狗，给我到小屋里去！”曼高乐骂骂冽冽地转到武田背后，用佛来克十二型手枪枪口抵住了武田的后背。 小屋里，鲇子和鳟子一样，双手也被反绑着，嘴上塞着一团厚布，躺在地上。而且似乎早巳失去了知觉。 她的身边，五短身材的CIA间谍，被人称为哈维二世的哈罗特船田，正象个虐待狂似地狞笑着，站在那儿。 “不自量力的幻想家。给我打开保险箱！”说完，一巴掌打到了武田脸上。 武田的嘴唇被划破了。 曼高乐这时轻巧地抱起失去了知觉的鲇子，向小屋外走去。武田跪倒在大型保险柜前面。哈罗特船田、杰克逊及奥尼都虎视眈眈地注视着他。 武田无可奈何地拿出钥匙，从拨号锁上端插入，开始开锁。但由于紧张，他失败了。再说戴着手铐，双手又不能随意转动。 “混蛋！你还想拖延时间吗？”哈罗特用枪抦在武田的耳畔砸了一下。 这一下砸得很重，武田不由自主地低声哀叫了一声，扑倒在地上。 “你给我老实地说出正确的号码。否则，我把你的手指一个个打飞！”船田冷酷地狞笑着。 武田呻吟着直起上半身，他非常吃力地说出了正确的号码： “首先，左七……然后右五十九……然后左……” 船田运用这一号码开始拔号。随着一声轻脆的响声，上方的锁头打开了，下边的紧接着也开了。 船田扑到保险柜上，用力把铁门拉开了。奥尼这时用枪柄往武田头上砸了一下。 武田疼得全身都痉挛起来了，一会儿就不省人事了。奥尼和杰克逊开始把放在保险柜里的库林格的指令书和报告书的复印资枓往外拿，每拿出一份翻阅一遍。 “这种东西一旦发表了，将会给库林格一个沉重的打击。”船田对另外两个美国人说道。 “全亏了你，才使这些丑闻不致流于世间。”奥尼向船田低了一下头表示谢意。 “这是CIA的功劳。……唉，这里面是什么？”船田拿S·W九毫米口径手枪抵住保险柜最下层的抽屉的锁口，连发了五枪。 一片微紫色的火花消失后，锁头被打得粉碎。船田拉开抽屉，把里面成捆的、约有三百万元的饯塞进了自己的腰包，随后，拿起一纸文书，“是武田跟库林格公司订的合同。我们可不要这种东西，它会给库林格制造麻烦。” “说得对。……那就把它跟资枓和稿纸一起烧了吧。” 杰克逊陪笑着说道。 从保险柜里拿出来的东西，都用床单包成了一团。船田这时往武田的后背踢了一脚。武田从昏迷中醒了过来，被押到了小屋外面。 小屋前的空地上，山本和曼高乐看守着鲇子母女俩。她们躺在武田的车子旁边的地上。 武田被推到了她们的对面，坐了下来。船田用枪抵着他的脑袋。 奥尼和杰克逊把床单包放到空地正中央，曼高乐从小屋背后提来一罐汽油。从床单包中拿出来的大叠资料以及稿纸和合同书上面，顷刻间都被湿漉漉地浇上了汽油。 船田贴着武田的耳朵，高声地狂笑道： “好好看着吧！你豁出了不值钱的命写成的东西顷刻就要变成灰啦。” 曼高乐往床单上扔进去一根点着了的火柴。吸足了汽油的纸张，顿时冒着暗红色的烟，熊熊地燃烧起来了。武田两眼发呆地看着上窜的火焰。 被热气一熏，鲇子恢复了知觉。她把脸扭向武田那边，想说什么，但口中的那团厚布使她发不出声来。她想站起身来，却被山本一脚踩住了。 “畜生……”武田直想站起身来。但船田把他的肩膀按住了。 “别急嘛，离死还早着呐。” 三十分钟后，曼高乐把烧成了灰的物证睬得粉碎，然后，又回到鲇子母女俩身旁。 “那么下面——”爱尔兰血统的红脸的奥尼这时拉开嗓门叫了起来。 “下面，我们将对库林格公司的叛徒执行死刑。但单纯的执行死刑不够刺激，所以首先斩叛徒的家族，为我们祭刀。” “住手！”武田咬牙切齿地喊道。 “住手！我老婆女儿有什么错？！” “可你是叛徒。我们要让你眼睁睁地看着老婆和女儿死去，让你尝够痛苦的滋味。这是公司的命令。”奥尼冷笑道。 “鲇子……鳟子……”武田叫喊着妻女的名字站起身来。 “别动。”船田慌忙探身扑了过来。他举起手枪，朝武田的脖子猛砸过来。 武田急忙蹲下身子，用一只手支撑着地面，躲过了这一击。船田的S·W九毫米口径手枪“呼”地一声掠过了武田的头顶，打了个空。船田却由于用力过猛，顺着枪势往前倒去，他的背正好对着武田。 武田乘机突然起脚，用力往船田屁股上踢去。被踢碎了尾骶骨的船田，哀叫着摔倒在地上，手枪也跌出老远。 武田戴着手铐，朝掉在地上的手枪扑去。他俯卧着身体，用双手抓住了手枪，然后马上用左手的大拇指，扣开了装在枪柄左侧的保险阀。与此同时，奥尼他们的手枪都开火了。 但是，子弹并不是往武田身上飞来。在一旁的鲇子和鳟子，却饮弹倒到了地上。原来，看到武田得了手枪而惊慌失措的奥尼一伙，生怕跟武田接上火后，没空理会鲇子母女俩，所以才急急忙忙地朝她们开了枪。武田发了狂似地大叫了一声。
