Chapter 228: Busy supporting the family in the foreign land
Sakura Kobayashi looked at Ichiro Hirata who was rushing towards her. Not only did she not scream, but there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.
There was a very wide bed in the luxurious train compartment. Kobayashi Sakura curled up and sat down on the bed.
"Your name is, Sakura Kobayashi?"
Ichiro Hirata was satisfied that his prey made no sound to annoy him, but simply shrank in fear of himself.
I saw that although Kobayashi Sakura was scared, she still nodded obediently.
A hint of nostalgia appeared on his flushed face.
"Since I left my homeland, I have never seen cherry blossoms in full bloom again..."
He looked straight at Kobayashi Sakura, his face revealing a man's desire for a woman.
"Yakurako, can you fulfill the wish of an Imperial soldier far from home today?"
He finished speaking, nodding politely, ignoring the clothes he took off, as if he was really and seriously asking others to fulfill his wish.
Xiaolin Ying's eyes seemed to relax, and with a hint of admiration, she said simply:
"General, what do I need you to do?"
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Ichiro Hirata's eyes, and he pounced on the innocent little prey on the bed...
Five minutes later, Hirata Ichiro's close subordinate Sakai Jiro knocked on the door as usual, but was met with the general's furious voice.
"Get lost! Don't bother me until we get to the station!"
Jiro Sakai was shocked when he heard this. His general was notoriously cruel both on the battlefield and in private. He would shoot and kill people if he disagreed with someone.
Thinking of his predecessor's fate, he nodded politely outside the carriage and answered loudly with a "Yes!"
Hirata Ichiro, who was very angry, yelled again:
"Everyone stay away, don't come near without my order."
When Jiro Sakai was leaving, he heard the general singing the song about his hometown from the box.
"Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms, in the clear March sky, there are cherry blossoms as far as the eye can see."
He listened to the familiar melody and hummed along softly.
As he walked, he waved to the soldiers around him to stay away from the general's box.
Then he felt his stomach rumbling. He cried out inwardly, "Oh no!" and holding his stomach, he quickly ran to the toilet at the end of the carriage.
Maybe it was because he left Kanto, he had been feeling very uncomfortable in his stomach since he got on the train.
Jiro Sakai had only run halfway when the entire carriage was filled with a foul odor.
Now, everyone's gaze turned towards the officer who was standing there awkwardly.
Naturally, no one noticed that a young soldier knocked on Ichiro Hirata's box.
The door was quickly opened. Xiaolin Ying followed the young soldier, straightened her dress, walked towards the source of the stench, and asked softly:
"what happened?"
"Baga! Get out!"
Jiro Sakai is on the verge of being exposed.
Just at this moment, a roar came from Ichiro Hirata's box.
"Quiet!!!"
Now everyone even breathed carefully, and the entire carriage became eerily quiet due to the stench.

Wei Miao had something on his mind. When he woke up from lying on the big yellow croaker, it was only afternoon.
She glanced at the empty bed, stretched, and walked out of the room refreshed.
I saw Lu Pingsheng and Zeng Baoshu playing chess.
She had read about Go in a book and had a basic understanding of it, but she had not studied it in depth.
She took a closer look, but was somewhat confused.
"What's the method?" Wei Miao picked up the snack beside him and put it in his mouth, asking vaguely.
Lu Pingsheng was deep in thought and didn't want to pay attention to her.
Instead, Uncle Zeng Bao laughed and said, "This is your brother Lu's new invention, five in a row."
After listening to Uncle Zeng Bao's explanation of the rules, Wei Miao glanced at the half-sized flag on the chessboard and said:
"Then there's no need to play this game. Even if it's full, there's no winning or losing."
Lu Pingsheng turned his head and said, "You know it after just one look?"
Wei Miao said seriously: "With the meticulous mindset of the two of you, who are chasing and blocking each other without leaving any loopholes for either side, such a small chessboard cannot hold so many chess pieces."
Uncle Zeng Bao thought that Wei Miao had seen through the blank space what their next move would be, but he didn't expect that he could actually see through the chess pieces to see the two men's competitive intent.
Lu Pingsheng placed the chess piece on the chessboard with a "pop", glanced at Uncle Zeng Bao, and then gave Wei Miao a smug smile.
"Chess pieces are dead, but the person playing them is alive, and living people can make mistakes..."
Seeing the flaws he deliberately revealed, Uncle Zeng Bao cooperated very well and placed the chess pieces on them, forming a "three-three" formation.
Wei Miao ignored Brother Lu's childish behavior, touched his belly and said:
"very hungry."
Uncle Zeng Bao chuckled as he picked up the chess pieces.
It was really cunning. Xiao Qian always said that Lu Pingsheng had taken control of Wei Miao. In his opinion, these two people were willing to fight and be beaten, and their relationship was even better than that of brothers.
Lu Pingsheng realized that he was being plotted against, but he was too lazy to get angry.
"Eat something first, and then we can discuss the matter entrusted by the old monk."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Wei Miao felt that hunger was not unbearable.
"Shall we just rob the train?" Wei Miao said.
Lu Pingsheng raised his hands to hit her, but thinking that there were outsiders around, he finally pressed down his itchy hands.
Uncle Zeng Bao clenched his fist, put it to his mouth, coughed twice and said:
"I'm afraid it's too late. According to the time, Ichiro Hirata's train should have arrived by now."
Wei Miao pursed his lips.
It’s all that bastard Feng Chuanfeng’s fault. He wasted her time for nothing.
Her thoughts were very simple at the time. She put the old monk's Buddhist scriptures and Buddha head aside and sucked up all the gold on the train.
Then the Japanese will investigate, which takes time, and with time they can make plans.
Now, sir, she was arrested and sent to jail, and then that bastard Hirata arrived a day earlier than expected.
"Will the goods still be shipped directly to the port after arriving at the station?" Lu Pingsheng asked.
Uncle Zeng Bao played with the chess piece in his hand, which was as smooth as white jade, and nodded slightly.
This was not a secret message. With such a big commotion, this was the information he received.
"In fact, just transport it back. They can take it away anyway. We can take it back when we have the ability."
Lu Pingsheng was already accustomed to her remarks like this, but it was Uncle Zeng Bao who deliberately glanced at Wei Miao.
"Now we can only tamper with the transport trucks or cargo ships."
Uncle Zeng Bao shook his head. "All the vehicles are military trucks of the garrison, and the military police personally escorted them..."
Lu Pingsheng asked: "How could the people in the International Settlement agree so readily?"
You should know that the current railway station belongs to the International Settlement. Ever since the Japanese forcefully tore the Suzhou River and Hebei River from the International Settlement as their Japanese Concession a few years ago, the relationship between all parties has become somewhat delicate.
Shen City is close to Japan and has a natural geographical advantage over them. Anyway, it is not their own country that is in trouble. As long as it fundamentally affects their interests, no country is willing to tear its face off for a small piece of fat.
This has led to the situation in recent years where the Japanese, apart from taking the French seriously, have always been somewhat arrogant towards other countries.
Wei Miao ate all the cakes on the table in the blink of an eye.
"The security at the dock is also very tight. Considering the importance the Japanese attach to these things, there are probably guards along the way," said Lu Pingsheng.
Zeng Baoyi dipped his hand in water, drew a few strokes on the chessboard without chess pieces, and then circled one place.
"The Japanese and the Gauls have a general relationship. This section of the journey takes about fifteen minutes. It is narrow and remote, and it is the only way to the dock. As long as there are no Japanese soldiers stationed there, we can create some simple accidents..."
The three fell into silence.
Zeng Baoshu drove out, Wei Miao took a rickshaw to go back to Guihua Lane, and Lu Pingsheng had already stood up and returned to the study. . .
Time has never been so precious.
