Mahjong

Chapter 73

Chen Shen looked forward as if thinking of something, and his tone of voice had a feeling of vicissitudes due to too much experience, "Once everything has become a fait accompli, I don't think it is necessary to look back. Give it Erecting a monument, burying it, and then moving forward is what you should do." After Chen Shen finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then returned his gaze to Xu Bicheng's face, and said with a smile, "Besides, the result of this matter is not Not too bad."

Xu Bicheng nodded, and promised: "I promise not to make the same mistake again. You are right, any accident may happen, and I did not think carefully."

Chen Shen said: "Staying in the wolf's den all day, it is unrealistic to imagine that nothing will happen. It is also a practical test for you to survive this incident. It should be said that your performance is still qualified."

Xu Bicheng finally showed a little smile, "Now you are like my teacher back then."

Chen Shen also smiled, "Okay, I will be your teacher next. If I remember correctly, you can speak dumb, right?"

Xu Bicheng was taken to Mengjiangtang Orphanage by Chen Shen in confusion.The sun shines on the ground through the shade of the trees, and Pippi is jumping and stepping on those light spots in the yard, and the braids on the back of his head are also jumping with him.

Xu Bicheng stood aside and looked at Pippi with a smile. She greeted Pippi with sign language: "Hi, are you a girl?"

Pippi shook his head.Xu Bicheng made some sign language again, and this time Pippi also responded to Xu Bicheng with gestures.After a brief exchange between the two, Chen Shen took out a chair from the room and asked Xu Bicheng to sit down.Pippi was still bouncing around Chen Shen and Xu Bicheng.

Chen Shen asked: "What are you talking about?"

Xu Bicheng said mischievously, "Guess."

Chen Shen smiled, "If you can guess, I don't need you to be my dumb language teacher."

Xu Bicheng suddenly said softly: "I didn't expect my dumb speech to be useful after grandma passed away. Although grandma can't speak, she is the person who loves me the most in this life."

Chen Shen looked at Xu Bicheng's side face and her expression, and was a little distracted.It wasn't until Xu Bicheng asked him why he took Pippi to be his godson that he reacted and said, "Because he can't hear, won't tell, and will never tell my secret."

Xu Bicheng asked again: "Then why do you need to learn dumb language?"

Chen Shen smiled, "Because I really want to treat him as my son, as a relative. I want to know what he wants, instead of taking it for granted."

Xu Bicheng looked at Chen Shen with emotion and said, "I understand how you feel, at least you don't have to lie to him."

Chen Shen laughed at himself and said, "Yeah, I've told so many lies that I even forgot which one is the truth." Xu Bicheng looked at Chen Shen in a daze, and Chen Shen stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xu Bicheng's eyes. Akira asked with a smile, "You haven't told me what you were talking to him just now."

Xu Bicheng looked at Pippi and replied: "I asked him, he is obviously a boy, why did he wear braids."

Chen Shen also looked at Pippi, "What did he say?"

Xu Bicheng said: "He said that he can only cut it when he sees his mother."

Chen Shen's heart suddenly filled with endless sadness. The prime minister would never come back, and Pippi and his mother were separated forever.

This became the secret that Chen Shen could never be honest with Pippi, and it also became the eternal pain in his heart.Xu Bicheng and Pippi played a game of hopscotch together. Their bright smiles made Chen Shen also show a rare relaxed smile, and at the same time made him a little stunned.The happiness and tranquility in front of him were so unreal, as if it was only in Chen Shen's dream.

How much he wished that this dream could last a little longer, so that he could temporarily melt away all the cruel reality in reality, just like this being melted by their smiles.

Chen Shen woke up immediately from his dream when he returned to the action place.He walked into Bi Zhongliang's office and handed Bi Zhongliang an envelope, saying that he had just returned from Boss Hua.Bi Zhongliang didn't even look at it, and sat on the chair with a gloomy face.

Chen Shen couldn't help but asked curiously: "What's the matter? You don't look away when you see money, isn't that your style? Did Li Moqun come to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes? Or did Yingzuo bastard scare you with a Japanese knife again?"

Bi Zhongliang raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Shen, grabbed the envelope containing the dividends, and said fiercely: "Damn it, it's time to get excited, and ask for a thorough investigation, otherwise I'm the only one asking."

Chen Shen sat down on the chair, "Then check it out."

Bi Zhongliang said in a deep voice: "How to check? Everyone is dead, people are dead, and the clues are all broken!"

Chen Shen said: "How can a tiger's butt be touched casually? If you blame Li Moqun, of course he will give you some flair."

Bi Zhongliang sneered, "He is determined that I will not have any new evidence, and this charge cannot be placed on his niece."

Chen Shen smiled, "Then how do you plan to do business?"

At this time, Bi Zhongliang can be said to be helpless.He glanced at Chen Shen and said, "None of them are fools, and they can show their feet and let me catch them? This time, it's not just one person who can do it. They cooperate with each other, and they regard my operation as a juggling field."

Chen Shen asked directly: "Then who do you suspect?"

Bi Zhongliang sneered again, "I don't doubt Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng, I never believed them."

Chen Shen was thoughtful, "Is there a way to find a breakthrough?"

Bi Zhongliang pondered for a moment and said: "Lu Ming's wife should be arrested by us, but he hasn't told me who his wife is. There are some female military commanders and female Communist Party members in various prisons in Shanghai. Which one is his wife? Even if he can find it, his wife may not know who the ghost is..."

The listener cared, Chen Shen kept what Bi Zhongliang said in his heart, found a reason, and went directly to Tang Shanhai's office.The two sat on the sofa together, brewing tea by the Tangshan seaside and said: "The mountains and seas use tea instead of wine, Captain Xie Chen rescued Bicheng."

Chen Shen took out the group photo of Lu Ming's family and handed it back to Tang Shanhai, saying: "The fence has not been completely removed, and the fence may not have been lifted. Li Moqun asked Bi Zhongliang to investigate thoroughly. Now Bi Zhongliang only knows about Lu Ming's wife. He is also in Wang Puppet's prison, if he finds out about Zhou Li, Xu Bicheng is still at risk of being exposed."

Tang Shanhai's expression froze, he put away the photos, and nodded solemnly, "I have to find a way."

Chen Shen thought for a while and said: "Bi Zhongliang actually wants to end it, so someone needs to show his feet. For example, someone suddenly absconded in fear of crime."

Tang Shanhai's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Chen Shen meant. He asked, "You mean looking for a scapegoat?"

Chen Shen nodded, "We must be very cautious in this matter, and there must be no more mistakes."

Tang Shanhai said: "I will. If you have a chance, you can also help me persuade Bicheng to stop being willful. She..." Tang Shanhai paused, and finally said, "...should be more willing to listen Your words."

Chen Shen smiled, "She is a bit stubborn, but she is not unreasonable. She is just not suitable for staying in the wolf's den of intrigue. If she were placed in a peaceful and prosperous age, she would turn her little life into poetry, and live a happy life." A painting. She just came to the wrong place."

Tang Shanhai listened blankly, "I was thinking, maybe I never really understood her."

Chen Shen continued: "Maybe she was just too nervous and always wanted to do something, but instead lost her composure."

Tang Shanhai asked thoughtfully: "Then how can I help her?"

Chen Shen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then looked at Tang Shanhai with a smile, "Let her live like herself, and do something she really likes. Now this kind of life that annihilates all her nature is a blessing for her." Inhuman."

After work this day, Tang Shanhai lit a match in the study, preparing to burn the group photo of Lu Ming's family.When the photo was lit, Xu Bicheng suddenly came over and recognized the person in the photo.She snatched it violently and shouted, "Wait!"

Xu Bicheng picked up the book on the table and extinguished the flame on the photo with a few shots, but Lu Ming's half was still burned, leaving only Zhou Li holding the baby in the photo.

Tang Shanhai said: "Everything that may expose us should be destroyed."

Xu Bicheng looked at the photo very cherished, and she whispered: "I know. Can you let me take another look?"

Looking at Xu Bicheng, Tang Shanhai suddenly felt distressed.He watched Xu Bicheng close his eyes, press the photo to his heart, and when he opened his eyes again, there were tears in his eyes.Then Xu Bicheng reluctantly handed the photo to Tang Shanhai and said, "Okay, you burn it."

Suddenly, what Chen Shen said during the day flashed into Tang Shanhai's mind.He shook his head, looked at Xu Bicheng and said, "Forget it, you can keep it." After Tang Shanhai finished speaking, he turned around, cleaned up the paper ashes and books on the table, and said, "During this period Take a rest and do nothing. Bi Zhongliang's nose is as sensitive as a wolfhound, we must stop now."

Although Xu Bicheng was a little surprised why Tang Shanhai suddenly asked her to keep the photo, he still nodded and said, "I will definitely be more cautious."

Tang Shanhai turned around and looked at Xu Bicheng with a smile, "Actually, don't be too nervous, you can relax a little. You can... forget your mission and identity, and live like yourself."

Xu Bicheng looked at Tang Shanhai for a while, and the smile gradually spread on his face, "It's really unbelievable that such words came out of your mouth."

Tang Shanhai smiled, "Maybe we are all too nervous. Besides living, we also need to live. That may be a better concealment."

This conversation reduced the gap between Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng, and also eliminated the tension and uneasiness that had been suppressed in Xu Bicheng's heart for a long time.The next day, Xu Bicheng decided to grow flowers. She directed several workers to move some rough stone troughs and other things to the balcony.

Li Xiaonan watched from the side, and asked, "Bicheng, what are you using these stone troughs for raising pigs for?"
