Chapter 238 Tanaka Yoshiko's Surrender
When Yoshiko Tanaka heard this, her eyes moved slightly. She looked at Liu Zhiye in disbelief and asked anxiously: "Everything you said is true. You didn't say it on purpose to please me?" Her tone was full of excitement and expectation.

Liu Zhiye nodded and said sincerely: "The policy of preferential treatment for prisoners of war by our party and army was fully demonstrated during the War of Resistance.

Many Japanese who were initially skeptical of the Communist Party chose to join us after truly understanding us and fight against the fascist invaders together with us.

You may have heard of these people. Ida Sukeno: A Japanese soldier who brought 10 bullets to our army and helped our army turn defeat into victory! Yamada Ichiro: A Japanese military doctor who saved the dying and the wounded after joining our army and treated countless wounded soldiers! Miyagawa Hideo: A Japanese soldier who bravely fought against the Japanese after surrendering and was retaliated by the Japanese army and offered a bounty on his head! Japanese Sunahara Megumi: Joined the People's Liberation Army, concealed his identity to fight against the US and aid Korea, and insisted that he was a Chinese.

There are also countless Japanese people such as Mitsushige Maeda, Hirosumi Kobayashi, Kyoko Nakamura, Masao Kogawa, Kaku Matsuno, Sanzo Nosaka, Masaru Hinata, etc. who chose to turn from darkness to light.

Why would they choose to do this?
Because, after they truly understand us, they see the just cause we are doing and the true hope for human civilization.”

Upon hearing this, Yoshiko Tanaka gave a bitter laugh, "Hahaha..." Then she said sadly, "But I'm different from them. I used to be a spy stained with blood debts in China, and I used all means to achieve my goals. I don't think you will let me off easily."

Liu Zhiye looked at him seriously: "The key to all this does not lie with us, but with your own attitude. As long as you honestly explain all the problems, help us find your superiors, and actively make contributions, then I believe that the day when you return home will come soon."

He stared at Yoshiko Tanaka and could feel that she was going through a fierce struggle in her heart. Her demeanor seemed to be somewhat relaxed, as if she was making a difficult decision.

So he decided to add another fuel to the fire, and sang a Japanese song in Japanese: "The people in the middle of the night are quiet, the moon is bright, the cold light shines slantingly, the windows are shining, the windows are entering, and the distance is foreign. The husband is looking forward to it, the wife and the son are going to be delivered, the wife is very sad, the silence is sad, the evening is sad..."

The lyrics translate to: "In the dead of night, the moon is brighter, and the cold light shines through the window. My husband is waiting for me in a distant foreign country! My wife and children are very lonely and sad..."

Sure enough, when Yoshiko Tanaka heard the sad and familiar hometown song, she couldn't help but burst into tears. This song was like a sharp sword, piercing through the defense line deep in her heart, causing the fortress in her heart to collapse instantly.

She burst into tears and yelled: "歌をやめて,歌をstop めてくださいfather, mother, Nanako private はbendang にお二人をforget れません"

Liu Zhiye watched her cry patiently. When her crying gradually subsided, he took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her face.

Seeing that Yoshiko Tanaka's psychological defenses were finally broken, Liu Zhiye decided to use both soft and hard tactics on her.

So he said sincerely: "Don't cry anymore, you will definitely have the opportunity to return to your hometown and reunite with your parents and sister." His words were simple and sincere, like a warm current flowing through her heart.

Feeling his warmth and care, Yoshiko Tanaka slowly stopped crying. She raised her head, looked at him gratefully, and nodded gently.

Then, she bowed sincerely to Liu Zhiye and said in a serious tone: "Arigato! I will definitely cooperate with you. I hope you will do what you say, otherwise I will not let you go even if I become a ghost." Finally, she swore fiercely.

Liu Zhiye said seriously, "I guarantee with my party spirit that as long as you sincerely surrender and strive to make meritorious contributions to atone for your sins, I will definitely let you go back to Japan when the time is right. We can discuss the specific details later."

Yoshiko Tanaka was a smart person, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to be a spy for the Special High Technology Bureau; and she wouldn't have been recruited by the Military Control Commission, because the Military Control Commission didn't accept just any fool.

So she had a certain ability to judge and could see that what Liu Zhiye said was true.

Tanaka Yoshiko nodded. She had found her goal to survive, and her desire to survive was ignited in her heart. She was now thinking about how to perform meritorious deeds and strive to return home as soon as possible.

"I believe you. You look like a relatively upright person. You are completely different from the Kuomintang officials. They are indifferent to me and only care about greed and cold-blooded orders. You Communists are also different from them. You are a group of people with real ideals."

"I am willing to assist you and provide all clues to help you track down my superior organization in order to obtain leniency. Please rest assured that I will fully cooperate..."

Liu Zhiye was overjoyed after hearing this, but he remained calm on the surface. He greeted a comrade from the special department present and said softly: "The next thing is left to you. You must take it seriously and provide Ms. Tanaka Yoshiko with a good environment for detention." Tanaka Yoshiko expressed her gratitude again, bowed deeply to Liu Zhiye and said: "Ali Gadu! Ali Gadu!" Liu Zhiye responded with a smile, indicating that she could go with him without worry.

The comrade from the special department deeply admired Liu Zhi. He did not expect that such a stubborn enemy spy could be easily conquered by Liu Zhi in just a few words. It was really an eye-opener!

So, he secretly gave Liu Zhiye a thumbs-up, then stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Yes! Director Liu! I promise to complete the task!" Then he was about to lead his men away.

After walking a few steps, Yoshiko Tanaka turned back and asked, "Will we have a chance to meet again?" Liu Zhiye nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, you should try to get leniency. When you return to China, I will see you off."

Upon hearing this, Yoshiko Tanaka smiled sweetly. This time her smile seemed particularly friendly, less charming and more innocent.

Perhaps she was once an innocent and romantic girl in her teenage years, but now she has become a female spy who will do anything to achieve her goals.

This is all the fault of the hateful Japanese "militarists", who turned the Japanese people, who once still had conscience, into beasts and cold weapons of war.

Not only did they bring endless suffering to the people of the invaded countries, they also pushed the innocent Japanese people into the abyss of war, turning them into cruel killing machines.

After cruel and ruthless training and brainwashing, they are only serving the war of aggression, losing their basic humanity and becoming cold-blooded machines.

Yoshiko Tanaka looked up at the sky and saw the blue sky and white clouds, which was refreshing. She raised her lips slightly, nodded to Liu Zhiye, and left with the escort.

"Papa!..." Suddenly, a burst of clapping woke Liu Zhiye from his deep thoughts. Liu Zhiye turned around and saw that it was Chen Wusheng, who was standing there with a smile.

When Chen Wusheng saw Liu Zhiye looking back at him, he said with emotion: "Not bad, I didn't expect you to have this skill, it really opened my eyes!" The methods Liu Zhiye used in interrogating Tanaka Yoshiko just now were beyond his expectations, and this excellent performance also made Chen Wusheng sigh.

Now he looked at Liu Zhiye with eyes as if he had found a rare jade. Liu Zhiye's hair stood on end at the strange look, "Hey! This old glass!"

Liu Zhiye smiled awkwardly, wanting to slip away, but he blurted out: "Well! This is luck, luck!" As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Wusheng beside him said: "How can we not have such luck? Don't leave in a hurry, come... let's chat for a while!"

Liu Zhiye looked at his wrinkled face from laughing, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "How old are you? Don't you have any sense? Who are you brothers with?"

"Well! Director Chen, look, the enemy spies have been arrested and confessed their crimes. We, the security department, can't do anything about it. Why don't we go back first? If we go back early, we can still catch up for lunch!"

Chen Wusheng didn't buy his tricks. He smiled like a weasel greeting a chicken. He pointed at Liu Zhiye and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to eat? You are so young. Can you starve to death if you eat early or late? Besides, I, an old man, don't even feel hungry. How dare you say that!"

"Come on, let's talk about this case... When we're done, how about I pay for you all to have hot pot?"

Liu Zhiye's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said, "Man is iron, and food is steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Since you are treating us to hot pot at noon today, how about we eat mutton?"

Chen Wusheng said with a pained look on his face, "Eating mutton, you are so smart. So many people are going to eat mutton, do you want my whole family to starve for a month? You treat me like you are so arrogant."

Seeing how stingy he was, Liu Zhiye teased him, "Not really, right? You are treated as a deputy director-level official, and a meal of mutton hotpot can make you broke. Who would believe this if you told others?"

"Are you going to invite me or not? If not, I'm really leaving!" Liu Zhiye pretended to be a little impatient and then really pretended to run away.
