Chapter 327 Diary and Treasure
Du Fei was also a little anxious.
While listening to Lao Yang, he picked up the top diary.
When I opened the cover, there were two messages written in Japanese on the title page, and Hiroshi Nohara's signature was on the bottom.
The handwriting of the signature is exactly the same as the diary in Du Fei's hand.
Turn the page.
The date of the first diary is December [-], [-], Thursday, the weather is snowy...
Although the entire diary is written in Japanese, "Taiyuan" is mentioned several times in it, indicating that Nohara Hiroshi should still be in Shanxi at this time.
Du Fei just glanced roughly.
He was not interested in what Hiroshi Nohara, a Japanese devil, did every day.
Turn directly to the torn pages that Lao Yang said.
These torn diaries are incoherent, and the earliest one is dated June [-], [-].
What's more, to Du Fei's surprise, all these torn diaries have been translated!
However, it is not the kind of translation of the whole text, but only some words in Japanese hiragana and katakana are translated, and they are directly marked on it with Chinese characters.
Although such a translation is not fluent, it can roughly understand the meaning.
Du Fei reckoned that it was Fan Ming who tried to find someone to translate.
He was afraid of revealing the secret of the treasure, so he only intercepted the words and showed it to others.
It's a pity that his behavior can only be a cover-up.
At this time, anyone who can translate Japanese is not a genius, and I am afraid that it will not take a few times to guess what he is going to do.
But Du Fei didn't bother to guess what happened at that time.
Simply take these diaries and read them carefully.
In June [-], there were only two months left before Japan surrendered.
At this time, Germany has surrendered unconditionally in Europe.
As a senior Japanese military officer stationed in China, Sumida Saishiro has realized that failure is inevitable.
Started to transfer the wealth collected over the years to the country.
Hiroshi Nohara, as his confidant and a descendant of his family's best friend, also participated in it.
According to the records in Hiroshi Nohara’s diary, this batch of treasures belonging to Sumita Raishiro was loaded into three trucks and divided into three batches.
The convoy plans to start from Taiyuan, pass through the capital, go to Tianjin Port, transship and ship, and finally transport it to the hometown of Sumita Rishiro - Ehime County on Shikoku Island...
Du Fei quickly read these diaries of Hiroshi Nohara.
Finally, I have a clearer understanding of the ins and outs of this batch of treasures.
Although it was said that North China was still a Japanese war zone at that time, after Germany surrendered, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Japanese devils were grasshoppers after autumn, and they would not be able to reach for a few days.
Those puppet soldiers and traitors who had kept their own law and order also changed their minds one after another, and no longer obeyed the Japanese.
Plus money is touching.
It was really not that easy for Sumita Laishiro to transport these seven truckloads of gold and silver from Shanxi to Japan.
To be on the safe side, the entire convoy was divided into three batches.
Two in the front, two in the middle, and three in the last batch.
Set off two days apart, even if something happens to one of the batches, the whole army will not be wiped out
Based on Hiroshi Nohara's diary.
On July 7, 21, the first batch of two trucks set off from Taiyuan and mixed with a convoy of the chamber of commerce.
The road went very smoothly, passing through Beijing and Tianjin, and directly transferred to the ship.
And twelve days later, they arrived at Matsuyama Port, Ehime Prefecture.
But in the next two batches of convoys starting on the 23rd and 25th, they were not so lucky.
The general situation is similar to what Du Fei had grasped before.
The second batch of two trucks got stuck in Tianjin.
The third batch of three trucks was trapped in a warehouse near the Lumi warehouse in the capital, and all the treasures disappeared in the end.
Including Gu Bingzhong, Lou Hongyi, and Fan Ming, the treasure they were looking for was the belongings of these three trucks.
It is a pity that although Nohara Hiroshi participated in the concentration from the beginning to the end, he was also among the third batch of evacuated convoys at the end.
But after the convoy was trapped in the capital, he decisively chose to escape alone.
At this point, his diary came to an abrupt end.
I don't know if it's because I lost my luggage, changed to another diary, or simply died.
However, after reading these diaries, Du Fei finally understood why Fan Ming searched so hard and found nothing in the end.
Because in these diaries, there is actually no real key information recorded.
The real reason why the three truckloads of treasures of Old Devil Chengtian have not been found until now is not because the Japanese hid them somewhere.
In fact, as early as Japan's unconditional surrender, someone found the cargo boxes pulled by the three trucks in the warehouse near the Lumi warehouse.
What is really amazing is that when people hurriedly opened these cargo boxes, they found that the inside was actually empty!
Therefore, Fan Ming thought that with these few diaries, he could find the so-called treasures, which was simply a matter of hope.
But this diary is not worthless to Du Fei.
At least this is first-hand information, and it can be determined that the so-called 'treasure' is not groundless.
Another point is that it is certain that at least before Nohara Hiroshi escaped, the three truckloads of treasures were still there.
Because he wrote in his diary that he had secretly pried open one of the wooden cargo boxes and stole ten large yellow croakers from it.
And described the process in detail in the diary.
He judged what was inside by moving the weight of the cargo box.
The lighter ones must be antique calligraphy and paintings.
Although these things were valuable, they were useless at the time.
If Nohara Hiroshi wants to run away, gold bars are the most reliable.
So he only looked for those particularly heavy wooden boxes, and when he opened one of them, it was full of gold bars!
This diary is from August [-]nd.
It was the sixth day that the convoy was trapped in the capital.
There is still half a month before the Emperor of Japan announced his unconditional surrender on August 15.
Compared with what Gu Bingzhong said when he invited him to dinner last time, on August 8, 21, the capital was restored.
In late September, at the BJ Station of the Military Command at that time, those boxes hidden in the warehouse were found.
But after opening it, it was empty, and found that some of the boxes had been eaten by rats...
In other words, during the two months between Hiroshi Nohara's departure on August [-] and the end of September, these treasures suddenly disappeared!
Du Fei's brain was spinning rapidly, sorting out the currently known intelligence information.
Although the puzzle of the whole thing has gradually become clear.
But as the ultimate goal, the whereabouts of those treasures is still a mystery.
What happened in those two months 20 years ago?In whose hands did those treasures fall?
Du Fei still had no idea.
Fortunately, he didn't expect too much from the beginning, and he couldn't say how disappointed he was.
Du Fei had a good time and expressed his thanks to Lao Yang.
