Chapter 259: Escape from the Devil's Cave
Chapter 259: Escape from the Devil's Cave
Thinking of this, Jiang Shiyuan forced himself to cheer up and began to search the villa carefully.
She must find some useful clues as soon as possible to answer the doubts in her mind.
Jiang Shiyuan first came to Ito Takuma's study, where Ito Takuma usually handles confidential documents, and perhaps he could find some valuable information there.
The study is simply furnished with a large desk, a huge iron bookshelf, and some dark oil paintings for decoration.
Jiang Shiyuan carefully checked every drawer of the desk and looked through every document, but found no useful information.
She went to the bookshelf again and flipped through the thick books one by one.
Most of these books are about politics, economics and military affairs, and some are about the history and culture of Japan.
Jiang Shiyuan read through it patiently, hoping to find some clues.
Time passed by minute by minute, she had turned the study upside down, but still found nothing.
Just when Jiang Shiyuan was feeling a little frustrated, she suddenly noticed a photo album on the top shelf.
The album cover is black leather and looks very ordinary.
Jiang Shiyuan's heart moved. She moved a chair, stepped on it, and carefully took down the photo album.
The photo album is very heavy and feels heavy in my hand.
Jiang Shiyuan gently opened the photo album, which contained black and white photos.
Most of the people in the photos are group photos of Ito Takuma and some Japanese military and political leaders.
Jiang Shiyuan carefully identified the people in the photos, hoping to find some familiar faces.
Suddenly, a different photo caught Jiang Shiyuan's attention.
In the photo, Takuma Ito is standing next to a young woman.
Both of them were wearing Japanese military uniforms, behaving intimately, holding hands and smiling brightly.
Jiang Shiyuan knew that young woman, she was none other than Nanzō Yunko who had been assassinated by him not long ago!
Jiang Shiyuan's heart skipped a beat. It turned out that she and Ito Takuma had such a close relationship.
This discovery shocked her.
Could it be that Takuma Ito discovered the truth about Minamizō Yunko's death and came to avenge her?
But after he saw me, his various morbid and crazy behaviors did not seem like he was seeking revenge for his beloved woman.
He also never mentioned any information about Minamizō Yunko to me during the whole process.
This is so weird!
Then she discovered a layer behind the album, which contained several yellowed letters.
Jiang Shiyuan quickly opened one of the letters and found it was a love letter written by Ito Takuma to Minamizō Yunko!
But what was strange was that although the characters on the paper were written in Japanese, Jiang Shiyuan, who had studied handwriting identification, could tell at a glance that the handwriting was wrong.
The handwriting in the love letter was reserved, but the handwriting on the invitation note that Jiang Shiyuan received was unrestrained and bold.
They have the same face, but the handwriting and the personality it reflects are completely different.
If it's not twins, then it's split personality.
Or we might as well make a bolder guess, if Ito Takuma has changed his "core" just like himself.
He is also a time traveler and is likely to be familiar with the plot of "The Lantern Bearer".
But he accidentally discovered that the current plot is far from the original plot and real history.
The Inoue Mansion established by the Black Dragon Society was completely wiped out, and penicillin was introduced in China ahead of schedule.
The "Eight Hundred Warriors" from the Sihang Warehouse were secretly rescued, and the Nanjing Massacre did not occur.
Minamizō Yoshiko, who was supposed to be in charge of the Special High Section in Shanghai and do great things for the empire, is nowhere to be found.
And this insignificant and vicious female supporting role has not been eliminated by the Red Party until now.
So he keenly suspected Jiang Shiyuan, and took advantage of this welcome dinner to get close to her, test her, and even want to possess her.
If that's the case, then it all makes sense!
Fortunately, she decisively eliminated Ito Takuma tonight, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Jiang Shiyuan breathed a sigh of relief and put the photo album back to its place.
A search was conducted elsewhere in the villa, but nothing was found.
The sky gradually brightened and the sound of birds singing could be heard outside the window.
Ito Takuma's assistant should be here soon, and she must be ready to escape at any time.
Jiang Shiyuan came to the door of the utility room, listened carefully to the movements inside, and confirmed that there was nothing abnormal with Ito Takuma's body.
Then she checked her watch again to make sure the poison needles and mechanisms inside were intact.
Everything was ready, Jiang Shiyuan was waiting quietly in the shadow beside the villa gate.
What follows will be a race between life and death, and she must seize the opportunity to escape.
At this moment, the sound of a car engine suddenly came from outside the villa gate.
Jiang Shiyuan's heart tightened, she knew that it was Ito Takuma's assistant who came!
Then she heard the sound of an iron chain falling outside the gate.
With a creaky sound, the door opened and Ito Takuma's assistant walked in.
At this moment, Jiang Shiyuan rushed out from behind the door, pointing his watch at the assistant's back.
"Swoosh!" A fatal poison needle shot out like lightning and hit the assistant's back accurately.
He was unaware and was about to go upstairs to look for Ito Takuma.
But as soon as he reached the stairs to the second floor, he began to convulse all over and foam at the mouth.
Then he fell headfirst to the ground, rolled down the stairs, and was completely dead.
Jiang Shiyuan didn't hesitate at all and quickly went forward to check if the assistant was dead.
Then they found car keys and some cash on the assistant.
After doing all this, Jiang Shiyuan rushed out and completely locked the door of the villa from the outside.
The early morning sun shone on Jiang Shiyuan's face. She squinted her eyes, feeling the long-lost freedom.
She finally escaped from the devil's cave, but new challenges were still waiting for her.
Jiang Shiyuan got into Ito Takuma's car and started the engine.
I stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and the car rushed out like an arrow.
The car was speeding on the road, but Jiang Shiyuan was unusually calm.
She knew she had an important mission and had to remain vigilant at all times.
At this moment, Jiang Shiyuan caught a glimpse of a black car in the rearview mirror.
The car followed closely behind her, as if it was stalking her.
Jiang Shiyuan's heart trembled, and then he suddenly turned the steering wheel and the car turned into an alley.
She twisted and turned in the alley, trying to shake off the pursuer.
But the black car was like a ghost, always keeping a close eye on and being very difficult to deal with.
Jiang Shiyuan's heart instantly rose to his throat.
She knew she had to find a way to get out of the predicament as soon as possible, otherwise if she was caught up, it would be difficult for her to explain to the other party the origin of the car.
At this moment, Jiang Shiyuan suddenly saw a crossroads not far ahead.
Her heart moved, and a bold plan quickly formed in her mind...
