How about I kill you here, and then find an excuse for you to be killed halfway? ”

This is what Meng Shaoyuan said to Qin Fuyu.

Then, he deliberately added: "You are sure that I am not a journalist, but I am not sent by Hoyce, oh, I am a military commander, do you know the military commander?" Do you know spies? ”

Of course Qin Fuyu knew, and he was still a smart person.

He barely hesitated at all: "Sir, I don't want to die, I still have an old lady and a younger brother at home, and I have sold my life to help foreigners, that is, I want to earn more money to support my family." So if you ask anything, you will leave me alive. ”

Meng Shaoyuan was very satisfied with his attitude: "Say it, say what you think you should say." As you walk, don't try to run away, this is a state-controlled area, and you have nowhere to run. ”

"Yes, sir, I promise not to run away." Qin Fuyu was very humble: "I helped Mr. Rick and them do things, I worked very hard, and Mr. Rick and Ms. Kayla also gave me a lot of money. As you probably know, medicine is scarce, and Mr. Rick once muttered to himself that whoever could get the medicine could give him the leather shoes he wore on his feet, and would rather return home barefoot in the future.

As soon as I heard it, I was intrigued. I know that before the war, there was a pharmacy in Sanhe Bridge, I helped there, and the shopkeeper bought a lot of Western medicines, and then there was a war, and the shopkeeper hid all the medicines in the cellar, and I helped him hide them together, and the shopkeeper gave me a sum of money and asked me to keep it secret for him, so I wondered if I could get this batch of medicines out.

Sanhe Bridge was occupied by the Japanese, and when I heard that there were military control areas everywhere, and the common people couldn't pass through them at all, I thought of an idea, stole a set of military uniforms for wounded soldiers, pretended to be the national army, and wanted to mix in the control area. When I get to Sanhe Bridge soon, I will change into my military uniform, and with my familiarity with the place, it should be fine.

I spoke to Ms. Kayla as we left, and told her not to tell Mr. Rick, and Ms. Kayla wished me good luck. But I was not lucky, as soon as I arrived in the state-controlled area, I happened to encounter a group of national troops, and the commander did not say anything about it, and I was horrified by the fact that I was sent to his team, but I did not dare to tell the truth.

The position was quickly destroyed by the Japanese, and I and the survivors were all taken prisoner. I thought that this time I would fall into the hands of the Japanese and die, but you appeared, sir, and you saved me. ”

In the distance, a black sedan was parked.

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan appear, the agent who was driving immediately rushed over: "The car is ready." ”

Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "Get in the car." ”

Qin Fuyu honestly followed behind Meng Shaoyuan.

This person who saved himself must be very capable.

You see, his men have always had their cars ready.

Meng Shaoyuan let Qin Fuyu sit in the co-pilot's seat and started the car: "What's going on between you and Hawes?" ”

"Mr. Huo?" Qin Fuyu immediately replied, "He came to Shanghai earlier than Mr. Rick and Ms. Kayla, and I only met him later. I know a little English, which I learned when I used to do things for people. After I met Mr. Huo, I quickly won Mr. Huo's favor by virtue of his cleverness and ability to read words and feelings.

I'm not bragging, really, sir, Mr. Huo admired me very much, and once gave me a foreign watch. This man didn't have many friends in Shanghai, and even Mr. Rick and Ms. Kayla had a work relationship. He doesn't speak Chinese and is not familiar with Shanghai, so some things are entrusted to me.

I helped him get things from the docks a few times, most of them medicines, and each time I got them, I hid them somewhere and waited a few days, when Mr. Hawes needed them, and I went and got them for him. ”

"Wait." Meng Shaoyuan interrupted him: "Why don't you send it to Hoyce's hands immediately, but hide it first?" ”

Qin Fuyu hesitated for a moment: "I don't know very well, but Mr. Huo often disappears for a few days. ”

"Missing?"

"No, no, it's not accurate to say missing." Qin Fuyu thought for a while and said: "He is also strange, he does not live in a bungalow, but lives in a gauze factory, the owner of the gauze factory went bankrupt, Mr. Huo bought it, and often stays there for a few days, in these days, even if there is a big matter, you can't go to him." ”

I see.

It is not known what Hawes is doing in that bungalow, but it is certain that he needs a reliable errand runner.

And Qin Fuyu obviously meets this requirement.

Even, Meng Shaoyuan could be sure that when Qin Fuyu went to pick up the goods for the first time and the second time, Hoyce must have followed him, and after making sure that there was no problem with this person, he completely trusted the other party.

But this time something happened.

"Qin Fuyu, this time, where did Hoyce hide the things you took?"

Qin Fuyu obviously hesitated.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Look, you have already said so much, what else can you hide?" I know, you're doing your best to help Hawes, but don't you think this guy is weird? I need to know what those things are, and if you work with me, I guarantee that your family is peaceful, you know what I mean? ”

Qin Fuyu shuddered.

"If you cooperate with me, I guarantee that your family will be peaceful", the phrase is understood in reverse, meaning that if you do not cooperate with me, then your mother and brother are in danger.

In Greater Shanghai, the two missing people are nothing at all.

"Sir, I work with you, I work with you." Qin Fuyu made up his mind: "This time, what I went to get was a suitcase, which I got from the first mate of the American cargo ship 'Brave Fighter', a large suitcase with a lock on it. As soon as I got it, I took it home and hid it in my own home, which was very safe. ”

"You're not afraid that your mother and brother will see suspicion?"

"Don't be afraid, my mother is blind, my younger brother has to go out to work during the day to make money, and no one knows that I brought a suitcase home."

Meng Shaoyuan sped up the car: "Take me to your house." ”

Mr. Hawes's stuff looks like it's not going to be saved.

I'm afraid that my job will be gone.

But what can be done?

The person sitting next to him is a spy.

Qin Fuyu froze: "Sir, you will protect me, right?" ”

"Yes." A smile appeared at the corner of Meng Shaoyuan's mouth: "Follow me, you are absolutely safe." If you want, I can send you to Chongqing, so you don't have to worry about Hawes coming to you. ”

"Okay, sir, Chengdu Road, my family lives there."

Qin Fuyu's home also belongs to the slum area of the Shanghai Public Concession.

By the way, Ji Yunqing also lives on Chengdu Road.

Speaking of which, I haven't seen this big hooligan in a while.

When it's free, look for trouble with him.

Qin Fuyu pushed open the door: "Mom, Mom." ”

"The boss is back."

An old lady, sitting there, groped her way to her feet.

"Mom, I brought a friend to sit at home."

"Ouch, a good one, Mr. Nong is good, the family is messy, don't dislike it, sir." The old lady was still very polite.

"Mother of the Qin family, don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious." Meng Shaoyuan looked at the old lady, leaned closer, and stared at her eyes carefully: "Old lady, you can't see how long it takes to see her eyes." ”

"It's been more than ten years, and I used to see things vaguely, but then it became less and less."

"Mother Qin, I'll help Nong take a look." Meng Shaoyuan checked for a while: "Qin Fuyu, your mother's eyes may be saved." ”

"Huh? It's true? Are you saved if you are blind? ”

"It's not blind, it's cataracts, it's not to maturity, it's hard to say, if it's really mature, then it can't be cured. But if it doesn't come, it can be improved by taking medication. ”

Meng Shaoyuan is not particularly sure whether cataracts can be treated in this era.

Qin Fuyu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir, although I don't understand what you said, at least I can find a doctor to try." ”

The old lady didn't seem particularly concerned.

I'm this age, if I'm blind, I'm blind, don't let my son spend that unjust money. How good is it to save this money and marry a daughter-in-law?

Two sons, none of them are married, what should I do with this big problem of the old Qin family's inheritance?

"Follow me, sir."

Qin Fuyu took Meng Shaoyuan into the room.

There are two beds in the room, and the one on the left is Qin Fuyu's.

He crouched down, lifted the sheets that had been dragged to the floor, and dragged a large suitcase out of it.

Thief?

What thief would come to a place like this without opening his eyes?

"Sir, this is the box."

There was a lock hanging on the box, Qin Fuyu was still relatively clever, and immediately found a hammer.

Meng Shaoyuan smashed it hard a few times and smashed the lock.

He carefully opened the box.

Pharmaceuticals? Weapons?

But when he opened the box, it was completely different from what he had imagined.

It's not medicine, it's not a weapon.

Rather, it's half a box of stacks of paper.

On top of the paper, there are more than a dozen bottles, which seem to be of all kinds?

Pigment?

Meng Shaoyuan picked up a bottle, looked at it, opened the cap again, leaned under his nose and sniffed it.

It's not like a pigment, it's more like a special dye.

What is this?

Hoyce traveled thousands of miles to get it, and in order to get it, he did not hesitate to pay a large sum of dollars to save Qin Fuyu from the Japanese, just to get back this box of things that at least looked worthless?

Paper...... Dye......

Meng Shaoyuan suddenly asked, "Qin Fuyu, where do you say Hoyce lives?" ”

"In the past, it was a gauze factory, and it was opened by a Changshu boss, but then there were too many foreign goods, and the Changshu boss couldn't do it, and went bankrupt, and Mr. Hoyce bought it and has been living there, and I heard that he is going to put this gauze factory back into operation, and there have been several times that foreign technicians have come in to see it."

Meng Shaoyuan frowned and was silent. After a long, long time, he suddenly let out a soft sigh:

"I think I know what Hawes is doing there!"
