Two field agents from the Special Operations Division came to Chiba Prefecture, Japan, and found the location stated on the adoption paperwork.
This is a very quiet street, with neat Japanese-style courtyards with black roofs and white walls standing on both sides of the straight asphalt road.
There are cherry blossom trees planted on the roadside. The leaves have fallen off, leaving only bare branches.
They first went to the "Kasahara family" mentioned in the adoption documents.
But when I found the house number, the sign on the door of that house was not "Kasahara Family", but "Hitada Family".
An old man with snow-white hair opened the paper door and looked at them with a smile: "Who are you looking for?"
Of course he spoke in Japanese.
These two field officers of the Special Operations Department have been stationed in Japan for a long time, but today they are here to inquire about information as staff of the Chinese Imperial Court.
"Excuse me, wasn't this place called the 'Kasahara Family' before?"
"The Kasahara family? Oh, they sold the house to us."
"Ah? Moved? Do you know where they moved?"
"...You have something to do with the Kasahara family? No one has asked them for many years..."
"That's right, we have something to ask the Kasahara family to see if they still remember that there was a woman named Kasahara Shizuko in their family..."
"Jingzi? You mean the little girl from the Kasahara family? Many years ago, she came to my house for dinner when she was a child...and then? Didn't she die later?"
Two field staff: "..."
"There is no one left in the Kasahara family. Their family has done evil! They deserve it. So as a human being, you should not do bad things!"
"That was her grandfather's fault. What does it have to do with her? You, Obasan, are also talking nonsense!" A middle-aged man next to the old man was very dissatisfied with the old man's nonsense and interjected.
"That's why I say you shouldn't do bad things as a person." The old man insisted on his point of view and said to the two field staff: "I remember Shizuko from the Kasahara family. I'm afraid I'm the only one who remembers the whole street. After so many years, go and die. After her death, my old lady is the only one who still remembers her... "
The two field staff perked up and hurriedly took out their court IDs, "... We are here to collect evidence for a lawsuit. I heard that Kasahara Shizuko is dead... "
"He is dead. He has been dead for more than ten years." The old man muttered without looking at the IDs of the two field staff. "Jingzi was adopted as a child and left us. We all said that she went to enjoy her happiness. But after that After more than ten years, she came back again, with a big belly and a man who looked like a gangster."
"You said Kasahara Shizuko has come back?!"
"Yes, I came back. She has a little daughter named... Ranzi, who takes her surname because the man is a bastard and refuses to marry her. She works three jobs by herself, which is not enough for the man to gamble."
The old man sighed, "Later, she got sick, and I didn't know what the disease was. I heard the doctor said that it couldn't be cured. The man ran away because he was afraid of the infection. Jingzi said that she could not let her daughter become an orphan and had to take care of her. Let her ask someone to adopt her."
After saying this, the old man was silent for a long time.
The two field staff did not dare to express their anger for fear of disturbing the old man's memories.
This is very rare first-hand information.
In order to prevent the other party from committing fraud, they also carefully recorded and recorded the video with a pinhole camera, and then simultaneously transmitted it back to the headquarters of the China Special Operations Department.
In the central control room at the headquarters of the Special Operations Division, Huo Shaoheng, Zhao Liangze, and Yin Shixiong watched the work of the two field personnel almost simultaneously.
"...What happened next? Didn't she find a way to cure the disease?"
"It can't be cured. I don't know what the disease is, but the doctor said it can't be cured. She left for half a year, and then came back." The old man stood up tremblingly and pointed to a small room in the corner of the courtyard, " This is where she died."
The two field staff then stood up, walked half a circle around the small room, and asked tentatively: "Can we go in and take a look?"
"Go ahead, there's nothing inside." The old man waved his hand, "It's rare that anyone remembers her. No one else has come to see her except her daughter."
The two field staff stopped and looked at each other, "Her daughter has been here too?"
"Of course. I remember she came here to pay homage six or seven years ago. I took her to see her mother's coffin (urn)." The old man stood at the door of the paper door with his hands on his sleeves, looking at the ashes with empty eyes. Misty sky.
Not far away is the blue Tokyo Bay.
The wind blows from the sea, bringing with it the fishy heat of the sea breeze, so it's not very cold here.
Immediately afterwards, the old man took two field staff to see Gu Jing, that is, the spiritual place of Kasahara Shizuko.
On the rectangular altar table, there is a spiritual tablet placed on it.
It looks like an antique small house. There is an incense burner in front of the memorial tablet and a large black and white photo behind the memorial tablet.
It should be Kasahara Shizuko, also known as Gu Jing, because this woman looks very similar to Gu Yanran.
"Is this really the ashes of Kasahara Shizuko?" The two field staff were very surprised at how smoothly things happened, as if the other party was not prepared at all and someone would find out here, "Is it really Kasahara Shizuko?"
"Yes, if you don't believe it, just open it and take a look." The old man didn't understand why he couldn't believe it. "When she was cremated, all the neighbors came. Oh, by the way, when she died, our family helped organize her funeral. .Because she had been dependent on her grandfather since she was a child. When her grandfather passed away, she became an orphan and was later adopted."
"Kasahara Shizuko's grandfather?"
"Yes, her grandfather's name was Kasahara Shiro. When he brought Jingzi back here, Jingzi was still a little baby. His son died, leaving only this daughter. Later he died of illness, and Jingzi was adopted. Then Kasahara Shizuko is also dead, and the Kasahara family is completely dead. There is no one left. What a sin!"
At this point, the old man felt a little uneasy and secretly glanced at the two field staff.
When they looked over, she quickly looked away.
The two field staff looked as normal and expressed great regret, saying, "I thought we could find clues. Because Miss Jingzi's daughter is in a lawsuit, we need some information about Miss Jingzi. But she only has ashes, and we can't test DNA. It’s hard to confirm her identity.”
"Oh, how can I test DNA?" The old man asked curiously, "Is it the thing that can prove identity?"
"... Well, for example, blood, hair, bone marrow, body fluids, etc." The two field staff looked at the tomb and smiled bitterly. Of course, the ashes cannot be tested for DNA.
"That's it..." The old man thought for a while, as if he had made up his mind, "I have here a lock of hair that Miss Jingzi cut off when she was dying and left it as a souvenir for me. You guys..."
The two field staff were simply ecstatic, "If it's convenient, just give us a hair."
"No problem. I'll give you ten hairs." The old man smiled and went into the house to find the things left by Shizuko Kasahara.
Not long after, the old man came out with a small purse and said, "Here are ten hairs of Jingzi, take them."
The two field staff hurriedly took it over. Seeing that this old man was a rare old man who was familiar with Kasahara Shizuko, they asked again: "Then do you remember that Miss Shizuko once asked to change her name?"
"Change your name? I can't help you with that. You can go to the county office and ask. They have all the information."
The old man showed them the way enthusiastically and walked them to the door personally.
The two field staff thanked her, and the old man suddenly bowed to them ninety degrees and said, "I'm really sorry. It's really unforgivable to do that to your country."
The two field staff's hearts skipped a beat, thinking that someone had discovered a flaw, and their brains shut down for almost an instant.
But after the old man finished speaking, he closed the paper door and never came out again.
The two looked at each other at the door. This inexplicable state of surprise was in line with their identities, so it did not arouse the old man's suspicion.
Leaving the old home of the "Kasahara family", the two went to the county office in Chiba Prefecture and asked to check the adoption records of that year.
As expected, the person adopted here was "Kasahara Shizuko" at first, but after three or four years, someone asked them to change the adoption record to "Kasahara Tenko". The reason was that Miss Shizuko had changed her name...
The original adoption record from that year was buried in a pile of old papers, with traces of smearing still remaining on it.
…
The simultaneous video recording of the two field officers has ended.
In the central control room at the headquarters of the Special Operations Division, Huo Shaoheng, Yin Shixiong, and Zhao Liangze were all frowning in thought.
During this trip to Chiba Prefecture, Japan, the field staff received a lot of news and a lot of news.
At least, they brought back ten hairs of Gu Jing's hair, and they can do a DNA test comparison with Gu Yanran's immediately.
This can further confirm Gu Yanran's identity.
But they still don't seem to understand why Kasahara Shizuko was adopted.
Huo Shaoheng sat in front of the computer and pondered, opened the search engine, and entered the names "Chiba Prefecture, Japan", "Kasahara Shiro", and "Kasahara Shizuo".
Not long after, the information and photos popped up in the search engine, making Huo Shaoheng's eyebrows jump twice.
"What's wrong? Mr. Huo?" Yin Shixiong noticed that Huo Shaoheng had a different expression and hurriedly came over to take a look.
After just one glance, I couldn't help but gasp.
"Is this Kasahara Shiro?! Kasahara Shizuo's grandfather?! That's Gu Yanran's maternal great-grandfather?!"
"Really the same person?!"
"...I seem to have discovered something extraordinary." Yin Shixiong was startled behind Huo Shaoheng.
Zhao Liangze came over and took a look, almost holding his breath.
"...Does the Gu family know that the Kasahara Shizuo they adopted is the granddaughter of Kasahara Shiro?"
"It's hard to tell." Huo Shaoheng calmly closed the page. "This matter is not that simple. The Chiba County Government of Japan was at least involved in forging the identity of Shizuko Kasahara."
Because the name "Kasahara Shiro" does not appear in Kasahara Shizuo's adoption documents from beginning to end.
When the name Kasahara Shiro appeared on his search page, it was associated with the number of a notorious biochemical unit in Japanese history.
Kasahara Shiro is the scientist of this biochemical force and the military doctor of the virus squad.
"But why does the other party seem to be unprepared? Did he reveal the news like this? Is it really not a trap?" Zhao Liangze was a little doubtful.
Huo Shaoheng was also trying to figure it out. He always felt that the other party seemed a little confident in caring about Nianzhi.
In fact, the opponent's plan was indeed seamless, if Gu Nianzhi had not been rescued by Huo Shaoheng seven years ago.
So what the other party missed was that Gu Nianzhi was not dead.
