Chapter 213
Yang Denghuan and Cao Youguang walked out of the courtyard of Hujiang Apartment together. Cao Youguang raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was almost 05:30. He turned around and said, "It's almost done today! Liao Hongwei and the others are still waiting."

Yang Denghuan was silent and looked around the apartment. He saw several rickshaw drivers sitting or squatting in the corner, waiting to do business. His eyes lit up and he walked towards the few rickshaw drivers.

When the rickshaw driver saw someone approaching, the clever rickshaw driver stood up straight, came over and greeted with a smile: "Sir, do you want to take a ride? Take my car, I guarantee it will be fast, stable and cheap."

"How much does it cost to go to Huage Road?" Yang Denghuan deliberately said with a mouthful of Beijing movies. Even in Peking, he had never been so precise.

Outlander!
The driver closest to Yang Denghuan's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "This gentleman has just come to Shanghai. It's not close to Huage Road! But you met me today. My family also happens to be on Huage Road. I’ll charge you half price, fifty cents!”

"Little Chi, you are crazy about money! Two cents is not enough! I want fifty cents." Cao Youguang said in fluent Shanghainese.

When the coachman heard the locals talking, he couldn't help but blush. Yang Deng said with a smile: "No problem! What's there? It's just fifty cents! Who doesn't go out without making a friend or two? Take it!"

Yang Denghuan reached into his pocket and took out fifty cents and handed it to the driver.

The coachman was stunned. He didn't expect that he had been exposed, but the guest still gave him fifty cents.

What a wonderful person!The driver sighed and took the fifty cents sheepishly.

"I want to ask you something." Yang Denghuan said casually.

"Just ask, as long as I know something, I promise to tell you!" the coachman said quickly, his sincere expression making people feel embarrassed.

Otherwise, money is the pioneer!Otherwise, only a fool will tell you if you ask questions for no reason and delay other people's business!
The barn is enough to know etiquette, but if you can't even eat enough, let alone what quality you have!

Only when you are given a benefit can you ask for the real thing. Otherwise, even if someone sees it, it is normal not to tell you.

"Did you work here on December 12th?" After speaking, Yang Denghuan pointed at Cao Youguang and said to the other drivers: "Did you see that there is another one here? Who will be here on the afternoon of December 26th?" From 12 to 26 o'clock, friends waiting at the door can also answer the questions. As long as the answer satisfies us, it will still be 6 cents!"

After Yang Denghuan finished speaking, he took out fifty cents from his pocket and waved it in the air. In an instant, several coachmen gathered around him.

"Ask me! Sir, ask me. I was here waiting for work that day."

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

Several coachmen rushed to answer, fearing to lose the chance to compete for fifty cents.

"On December 12, between 26 and 6 pm, who saw strangers coming in and out of the gate of Hujiang Apartment?" Yang Denghuan asked loudly.

"No one."

"Although there are people there, these people all look familiar. They should all be residents of the apartment."

Several coachmen said that according to them, no strangers came in or out of the door of Hujiang Apartment between 26 and 6 o'clock on the 7th.

Yang Denghuan frowned and shook his head.

Since there was another person in Tan Kai's house at that time, it was impossible for this person to disappear out of thin air, and in order not to attract attention, the best way for this person was to leave through the door.

After all, Bian Si and others were at Tan Kai's house when the accident happened, and the gate must have been unguarded. It was the safest place to leave from there.

If that person leaves through the gate, who can notice him most?Of course they are the rickshaw drivers waiting for business at the door of Hujiang Apartment.

Coachmen would pay attention to everyone who came out of the apartment door, and nothing else, just to judge which of them would take care of their business.

For example, just now, Yang Denghuan deliberately took two steps toward them, and immediately a coachman came over to talk to them.

The coachmen will not miss any opportunity to pull work, and will pay attention to anyone who comes out of the Hujiang Apartment.

Moreover, these coachmen have been working here for many years, so they are familiar with all the faces in the apartment. Once they meet a new face, they will know it in their hearts even if they don't say it.

Therefore, if you ask these coachmen to inquire, you only need to spend a few small bucks to get unexpected results.

But at this time, the coachmen said that no strange faces appeared at that time. Could it be that their reasoning was wrong?Did the man leave through the back door leading to the alley?
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be!

Although almost no one goes in or out of the back door in the alley, but because no one goes in or out, if you meet someone, it will definitely leave a deep impression!

A real master will never go through that door!
But what's going on?Yang Denghuan frowned involuntarily.

"Who said there are no strangers coming and going? That woman doesn't count! You all saw it!" While Yang Denghuan was hesitating, a thin rickshaw driver suddenly said loudly from behind.

The coachman was too thin to squeeze through these big men, so he didn't get close to Yang Denghuan just now. At this time, everyone stopped talking, and it was his turn to speak.

"Woman? What's going on?" Although Yang Denghuan heard the voice, he couldn't see the person. The guy was too short. As soon as he said something, he was blocked by other drivers.

"Lai Yaozi, stop talking nonsense! How can you say that a woman like that is a stranger? Is she a wandering warbler? Who doesn't know?" A voice suddenly caused the coachmen to burst into laughter.

"Liu Ying? You are all familiar with the faces of those Liu Yings. Maybe you can rely on them to fight five against one at night! But what about this one? Have any of you seen it before? You dare to say that she is not a stranger!" Lai Wu! The voice sounded again.

"I've never seen you before, but you're still a wanderer. Lai Wu, I think you're crazy about money!" A big man turned around and said sarcastically.

The big man turned around, and Yang Denghuan finally saw Lai Wu's face through the gap.He was a thin man with a puffy chicken breast, and he looked malnourished at first glance.

"Lai Wu, come here and talk." Yang Denghuan waved to Lai Wu.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Lai Wu proudly pulled the driver beside him and squeezed in front of Yang Denghuan.

"Sir, don't listen to his nonsense. Those are wandering warbirds who specialize in the crew business! They happen almost every day. They can't be considered strangers!" a coachman said loudly.

The coachman's words reminded Yang Denghuan of the charming woman he met at Liu De's house just now.

It seems that there must be a woman specializing in this kind of business nearby.

It is true that most of these crew members came to Shanghai to work alone, and the women did not follow them in their hometowns. It is normal to occasionally look for wandering women.

"What time did this woman come out?" Yang Denghuan asked.

"It's not seven o'clock, but it's almost seven o'clock." Lai Wu replied.

"Lai Wu, how do you know so clearly? How dare you talk nonsense even if you have a watch!" A strong man said disdainfully.

Yang Denghuan nodded after hearing this. The strong man was right. The coachman basically didn't have a watch, so he basically relied on guessing or looking at the sun to tell the time.

Lai Wu was very dissatisfied. He glanced at the strong man and said, "Ding Dali! It's not like you weren't there that day. Mrs. Hu happened to come in at that time and was making noises to his son as he walked. "You brat, it's almost seven o'clock, and Jennifer is talking... Come on, why don't you hurry up!', what time could it be if it wasn't seven o'clock?" The strong man Ding Dali curled his lips and said nothing.

"What does that woman look like? Can you still remember it?" Yang Denghuan asked again.

"It was dark, so I couldn't see clearly. But they weren't the women who come here often."

Before Laiwu finished speaking, another coachman said: "Laiwu, this is wrong! What if this person is new here?"

"Which of you has seen her after that?" Lai Wu glanced around, and when he saw no one spoke, he smiled proudly.

"What does that woman look like? Can you still remember her?" Yang Denghuan asked.

"It was already dark at that time, and the light at the door of Hujiang Apartment was not too bright. I couldn't see her appearance clearly. I just thought she was taller and stronger than ordinary women."

"Is he fat?" Yang Denghuan asked.

"Zhuang." Laiwu said.

"What else?" Yang Denghuan reached out and slapped the fifty cents into Lai Wu's hand and asked.

Cao Youguang's eyes also lit up, he took out a wad of coins from his pocket, and said loudly: "Who among you can tell the physical characteristics of this woman, there will be a reward!"

"That woman has big feet!" a coachman said loudly. Before Cao Youguang could ask, the coachman continued: "At that time, the camel master said, 'Look, this woman has big feet! She has a big face and a big butt. The general will not dismount. !’ Xiao Anzi also asked, ‘Master Tuo, isn’t it a lock on the general’s head if he doesn’t dismount?’ Master Tuo said, ‘Go home and ask your mother!’ Aren’t you all laughing!”

Cao Youguang smiled and took out two cents and handed it over, saying loudly: "Okay! This is one piece, I'll give you two cents!"

The coachmen were all shocked!In one sentence, I earned two cents!It’s simply easier to make money than those wandering warblers!
Each one spoke enthusiastically about the woman's physical characteristics.

The driver was in different positions at the time. Looking at the woman from every angle was like a 360-degree surveillance. Each position could provide one or two clues.To sum up, this woman is probably less than 30 years old, has long wavy hair, thick eyebrows, and heavy makeup on her face.There is a leather robe on the outside and a cheongsam on the inside, a typical Liuying dress, which is said to be for convenience.

Another driver saw a scar the size of a copper coin on the woman's right calf, almost to the crook of the leg.

For less than a dollar, you can outline the entire look of a woman from multiple angles. It’s really worth the money!
"It would be great if we brought Lao Qiao here! I guess this woman's portrait will come out by now." Yang Denghuan sighed and said.

"That's it! But the rest of the work must be left to professionals!" Cao Youguang said with a smile.

"Where do these wandering orioles rest when they are not doing business?" Yang Denghuan asked.

A driver with quick hands pointed to the east road and said: "About 300 meters away, there is a Haolai Western-style tea restaurant. They usually stay there when they are not doing business. Sometimes some crew members are anxious just after getting off the ship, so they go directly there to pick something. people."

Yang Deng smiled and nodded and said, "Okay! This time... I won't give you any money."

Yang Denghuan's words immediately caused a burst of laughter. The coachmen were not angry, but were joking about the coachman.

After all the questions were asked and there were no more questions, Yang Denghuan and Cao Youguang found two strong coachmen, pulled them and ran towards Huage Road.

The entrance of Wang San Sheng Jian Restaurant.

Like a resentful woman looking forward to her return, Zhou Yanwu straightened his neck and kept looking at both ends of the street. From a distance, he saw Cao Youguang and Yang Denghuan sitting in a rickshaw coming out of the end of the road and heading towards him. A smile instantly broke out on his face, and he quickly walked to the side of the road and waited respectfully.

The rickshaw stopped next to Zhou Yanwu. Even in the dead of winter, the rickshaw driver wiped the sweat from his forehead.

very happy!
I didn't expect to meet such a wealthy owner, who actually spent money to buy a phone call, and even earned a few cents before pulling the cart.If you are so generous, if you look more tired, breathe more quickly, and sweat more, will you get more rewards?
Sure enough, Cao Youguang reached out and took out a copper coin and threw it to the driver.

The driver reached out and took it, but it was an Eagle Ocean with a face value of fifty cents. He smiled happily and thanked him repeatedly.

Yang Denghuan also gave the coachman 256 cents, and before getting off the bus, he did not forget to say: "Some coachmen may have left the coach at this time. Go back and tell them. If you have any different stories, come to us at No. [-] Licha Road." , as long as the story is novel, we will reward you!"

The two coachmen agreed and left with great gratitude. Cao Youguang and Yang Denghuan then turned back and walked towards the Sheng Jian Restaurant.

Zhou Yanwu quickly followed up, walking behind Cao Youguang, half of his body behind the two of them.

"Are they here?" Cao Youguang asked as he walked without looking back.

"Here we come, nine people." Zhou Yanwu said.

"Where is Liao Hongwei?" Cao Youguang asked again.

"It's busy inside." Zhou Yanwu quickly replied.

Cao Youguang showed a slight smile on his face, shook his head and said, "This Liao Hongwei..."

While talking, the three of them entered the Shengjian restaurant.

It was dinner time, and the Shengjian restaurant was almost full. Liao Hongwei was waiting at the door diligently. When he saw Cao Youguang, he walked up to him with a smile and said, "Director, the old place is in the back." After saying this, his face showed a very happy look. look.

Cao Youguang glanced at Liao Hongwei and smiled. The two seemed to have a tacit understanding and walked straight towards the back.

Lifting the curtain, there is a long corridor behind, and at the end of the corridor is a door.

Cao Youguang pushed open the door of the house, and Yang Denghuan, who was following closely behind, couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and the scenery suddenly opened up.

There is a small courtyard with stone tables, chairs, and benches, and it is covered with grape trellises. However, it is winter now, and without the lush foliage, it seems a little imperfect.

When the eight or nine people sitting around the stone table saw Cao Youguang entering the door, they all stood up as if stepping on a spring and shouted in unison: "Hello, Director!"

Cao Youguang's face glowed red, he waved his right hand vigorously, and said excitedly: "We haven't seen each other for a few years, and we are so different? Call again!"

"Brother!" Several people shouted in unison again, and this time even Liao Hongwei beside Cao Youguang also shouted.

"Well, guys, do your best and I will marry you a sister-in-law next year." Yang Denghuan suddenly said leisurely behind Cao Youguang.

Cao Youguang was stunned for a moment, then understood and cursed with a smile: "You kid, you always tell me what to say!"

Everyone also understood Yang Denghuan's joke. Seeing that Cao Youguang didn't look angry at all, they also started laughing.

Suddenly, a burst of cheerful laughter sounded in the small courtyard.

Zhou Yanwu was stunned for a while. He didn't understand why these people were so happy?
Aren't you just looking for a sister-in-law?As for that!Zhou Yanwu scratched his head vigorously.
