Lost and Spy

Chapter 163 Windfall
It is easy to have acquaintances.

With Chen Rongyang's help, he found Huo Peng's concubine in Shanghai without much effort.

The woman is Sun Yonglan, 29 years old.

When she heard that Huo Peng had been killed, she burst into tears. After crying for a while, seeing Meng Shaoyuan didn't try to persuade her, she wiped her eyes and said, "Did he leave anything for me?"

"No, most of the family property was seized, and the rest was given to his wife."

"Damn it, it's not a thing." Sun Yonglan was furious when she heard it: "He has played with my old lady for so many years, this damn thing is not a good thing..."

She is also really angry.

He was almost 30 years old, and he looked like he was going to be old. Originally, he wanted to rely on Huo Peng to make a fortune from him, and then find a good man to marry.

But who would have thought that Huo Peng was actually dead.

Don't I have to find another one in the future?

It's just that women in their late thirties are really hard to find.

There are a lot of young and beautiful women in Shanghai.

The more Sun Yonglan thought about it, the more sad she became, and the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became.

Meng Shaoyuan was afraid that she would cry again: "I am the official who supervised the Huo Peng case. I came to Shanghai this time to ask you for some information."

He took out the photo and put it in front of Sun Yonglan: "Do you know the person in the photo?"

"Old Qi, Qi Honghai."

Unexpectedly, Sun Yonglan recognized it immediately.

Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly asked: "When did you meet? Tell me about the whole process."

"I've met this man twice. Huo Peng called him Boss Qi, and said he was doing business in Nanjing." Sun Yonglan recalled there: "One time, Qi Honghai brought a Japanese called, called... What's going on with Qiu...Qiu?"

"Akihara Yoshie?"

"Yes, yes, that's the name. Huo Peng took out a sum of money that day, and I asked the restaurant to deliver the food, and I ate here."

Is it Akihara Yoshie again?

So, this Japanese was actually introduced to Huo Peng by Qi Honghai?

Interesting.

"What did they talk about?" Meng Shaoyuan asked.

"Just talk about some business matters."

Sun Yonglan tried hard to recall: "But, I know that Qi Honghai is definitely not in business, he is a spy."

Meng Shaoyuan was surprised: "How do you know?"

No matter how confused Qi Honghai is, he wouldn't tell his true identity in front of a woman, right?
"Why don't I know?" Sun Yonglan snorted: "They had a great time drinking that day. When the wine was finished, Huo Peng ran out to buy it again. Qi Honghai talked with Akihara Yoshie in Japanese, and Qi Honghai bragged about himself. How important is the status in the Lixing Society, and I don't know what the Lixing Society is, and when I inquired about it, it turned out to be a spy."

"Wait, you know Japanese?" Meng Shaoyuan didn't expect this.

"That's so strange." Sun Yonglan didn't seem to care at all: "When I first debuted, I stayed with a Japanese for a year and almost married him, but unfortunately he went back to Japan... I just learned Japanese during that time, I can’t speak it, but I can barely understand it, that is, if I speak too quickly, I won’t be able to speak well.”

God will.

Qi Honghai and Akihara Xijiang never thought that Sun Yonglan could understand Japanese.

Fatty Tao said Qianye Co., Ltd. should be doing serious business, but Meng Shaoyuan felt that things were not that simple at the time.

How many of those Japanese trading companies in Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan are not tasked with spying on Chinese intelligence?
Why did Qi Honghai brag about his status in Lixingshe in Qiuyuan Xijiang?

What is the real identity of Yoshie Akihara, who is currently back in Japan?
Meng Shaoyuan came this time to search for evidence against Qi Honghai, but he never expected such a harvest.

"Are you able to testify about these?" Meng Shaoyuan was most concerned about this.

"How much will you give me?" Sun Yonglan asked a question she cared about.

Huo Peng died, she had to find some money for herself to take care of her.

Meng Shaoyuan likes to deal with such women, straight to the point, not hiding or concealing: "I will give you two thousand dollars."

Sun Yonglan's eyes lit up.

Then she was a bit sly: "Little brother, I think you are also a spy?"

"So what?"

"Who are you? It has nothing to do with me." Sun Yonglan said with a smile: "Sister, I debuted at the age of 16 and met many men. Huo Peng died inexplicably. If you come to Shanghai to ask me these things, I'm afraid it's not that serious." It's simple... so, little brother, if you add another thousand oceans, I won't go to Nanjing to testify, and you can do whatever you want me to do."

readily!

Meng Shaoyuan asked her to find a pen and paper, and said while writing: "You write down what I said... Interrogator, Meng Shaoyuan. Interviewee: Sun Yonglan... Ask, 'Did Huo Peng raise you in Shanghai?' Answer, 'Yes'... Ask, 'Did Qi Honghai tell the Japanese Akihara Yoshie that he is an important member of the Lixing Society?' Answer, 'Yes, I understand Japanese, I heard it with my own ears'..."

After writing for more than half an hour, Meng Shaoyuan raised his head and asked, "Have you written everything down?"

"It's all written down."

"Are you literate?"

"Literacy."

"Sign here and press your own handprint."

After all these were done, Meng Shaoyuan put away the confession in satisfaction: "If someone comes to you for investigation in the future and asks whether this confession was made by you yourself, do you know how to answer it?"

"Oh, little brother, what if they don't come all the time?"

"A month or two." Meng Shaoyuan didn't talk nonsense, and wrote a check: "I will add another five hundred to you, and it will be regarded as your loss during this time. Don't let it slip."

Sun Yonglan smiled, and took the check: "Little brother, Meng Shaoyuan, right? Don't worry, in our business, people have seen it, ghosts have seen it, and I understand what people say about people, and ghosts talk about it."

She saw Meng Shaoyuan getting up to leave: "Little brother, wait, there is one more thing."

"what's up?"

Seeing that Meng Shaoyuan didn't even drink his saliva, Sun Yonglan got up and poured him tea, and sat down again: "Little brother, I know you must be a person with great ability, otherwise your immediate boss wouldn't let you alone." People are coming... I, I want to ask you a favor."

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "There is money and money between you and me, why should I help you?"

"No, it's not, can you listen to me first?" Sun Yonglan was a little anxious: "Do you know the case of the third brother who abandoned his sister in Shanghai recently?"

Ok?I heard from Chen Rongyang just now, why are you talking about this again?
Meng Shaoyuan felt a little strange: "What's the relationship between you and you?"

"It doesn't matter, but it actually matters." Sun Yonglan said hesitantly: "I said that I debuted at the age of 16. At the age of 14, I was sold to my later mother. I was so scared that I ran away quietly one night. .

I stayed at the door of a family all night, cold and hungry.When it was dawn, the door opened, and a sister who was about my age came out. Seeing me, she hurried into the room and brought me a warm steamed stuffed bun.

Just finished eating the buns, my mother found me, she beat and scolded me, it was that elder sister who knelt down in front of my mother and begged for me, so my mother let me go..."

"Isn't it?" Meng Shaoyuan had already guessed: "What kind of sister is the one who was abandoned?"

Sun Yonglan's eyes were red: "Yes, that's her. Her name is Zheng Xindi, and I have never forgotten her. After I got a master, I went to see her, but she is a decent person, but I am getting dirtier. ..."

Shit is a serious family, and those three younger brothers are considered a serious family.

Meng Shaoyuan thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud.

"This time, as soon as her accident was reported in the newspaper, I saw three younger brothers and an older sister who was unmarried in her 30s, so I knew it was her." Sun Yonglan wiped her tears and said:

"I want to help her, but I'm just a bitch, how can I help? I wanted to wait for Huo Peng to come and beg him for help, but now this god damned is dead again. Little brother, no, Uncle Meng, Chief Meng, Can you help Zheng Xindi?"

help?
How can it be that simple.

Meng Shaoyuan himself didn't want to wade into this muddy water. He was in Shanghai, and he already had a whole lot of business going on. What if a careless operation revealed all the past events?
He shook his head: "I'm from Nanjing, I don't want to take care of Shanghai affairs, and I can't take care of them. You can find another way."

"Mr. Meng, you are a good person. I can see that you are a good person." Sun Yonglan almost begged there: "If I had a way, I wouldn't beg you, a person who only met once. Like this, like this, you If I can help Zheng Xindi, this money...I...I don't want it!"

Chivalrous and courageous.

Such an idea suddenly popped up in Meng Shaoyuan's mind.

Although Sun Yonglan is greedy for money and has been living by betraying herself, she actually remembered the kindness of a meal so many years ago.

Three thousand five hundred oceans, is she really willing to give up?

Compared with those so-called feminist leaders, this is the real chivalrous woman.

"Keep the money." Meng Shaoyuan had a headache: "This matter is not that simple. There are parades in the street, and the three brothers are still indifferent. Let me help you find a way, but don't report too much." Great hope."

What he thought in his heart, at most, he would pay some money himself to help that Zheng Xindi resettle her home.

"Thank you, thank you, Chief Meng."

Sun Yonglan stood up and bowed deeply to Meng Shaoyuan.

then……

Then she actually started to unbutton her clothes.

"what are you doing?"

Meng Shaoyuan jumped up like a rabbit hit by an arrow.

Sun Yonglan smiled indifferently: "Mr. Meng helped me to repay my kindness. I have nothing to repay. Although I am a broken flower, I want to let Mr. Meng return home to the fullest."

Help!
Meng Shaoyuan ran out at a trot, completely ignoring Sun Yonglan's call from behind.

Just kidding, kidding.

Great kindness and great virtue, nothing to repay, but promise with your body?

That's what happens in the play.

Poor Young Master Meng, this time he really ran away in despair.
