Chapter 488 Reasoning Notes 10: Mermaid Tears (30)
Although Mi Kaka is not a money worshiper, he came to Shanghai this time with the task of helping his family repay the mortgage.Originally, once Cai Dong died, he would have no reason to stay.Unexpectedly, Bai Chun made such a suggestion, so Mi Kaka had to think carefully.

"I can stay, but I dare not guarantee Qi Mu."

"You can rest assured about this." Bai Chun said, "I have already talked to him just now, and he will stay to assist us."

Oh, I didn't expect Qi Mu to be so obedient.

In fact, thinking about it, it's not surprising.

Qi Mu himself didn't come here for the bonus, his purpose of coming was to find out whether the mastermind behind this incident was a ghost, what's more, the murderer killed Cai Dong under his nose, which doesn't mean he was ridiculed in public as a red crime Is it the incompetence of the teacher?Therefore, he held back his anger and vowed to find out the murderer.

Thanks to Bai Chun's kind invitation, Mi Kaka's trip to Shanghai continued.His place of residence was moved from the 22nd floor of Handong Group to a nearby five-star hotel.During this period, Bai Chun reimbursed his board and lodging expenses.It seems that this Bai Chun's family is not generally wealthy.Moreover, Lin Shan also said that the Bai family is considered a wealthy family in Shanghai, and in terms of property, it is a few blocks away from Cai Dong.

Now, all they have to do is wait for the Shadow Stranger to appear again.

On the other hand, Bai Chun also dispatched people to look for the trace of Mermaid Tears.

But a week passed, and there was no news from either Shadow Stranger or Mermaid's Tears.

Could it be that the Shadow Stranger stole the Mermaid's Tears from Cai Dong and has already left the city of Shanghai?This is what everyone is most worried about.

In short, until there is news, Mi Kaka can only stand by.

That's good, he can have time to visit the beautiful city of Shanghai.This is his first visit to Shanghai, so Mikaka planned a travel strategy early in the morning. He planned a one-day itinerary starting from visiting the China Pavilion of the World Expo, then visiting the Tussauds Museum, and then going to the bustling Nanjing West Road, all the way to the Bund Observation Deck.

The weather today is very good, the sun is bright and warm, under the blue sky, the wind is blowing, and the white clouds are round.Surrounded by harmonious and beautiful scenery, the Oriental Pearl Tower stands proudly, straight into the sky.There are many boats on the quietly flowing river. This is the big and vast Huangpu River.Across the Huangpu River is the bustling Lujiazui.The sound of the flute is long and loud, and the cruise ship pulls the flute on the Huangpu River and slowly drives along the surrounding scenery.The viewing platform is crowded with people, and the number of tourists is very large.Many people are holding cameras, with smiles in their eyes, laughing and asking people around them to pose in various poses in the bustling space, following the movement of the cruise ship and pressing the shutter one after another, trying to keep the wonderful scenery blooming around them forever .Mi Kaka took various pictures with her mobile phone. After taking pictures of the scenery, she took selfies again. While walking and taking pictures, she accidentally bumped into a passerby.

"Ah. I'm sorry." Mikaka hurriedly apologized to the passer-by who was hit by him.

The other party snorted coldly.

When Mi Kaka looked up, his face changed: "I'll go!"

Very good, this passer-by is actually Qi Mu again.The other party was biting a red apple in his mouth, while putting his hands in his trouser waist. His appearance was extremely sullen. While his slender figure was upright, the sunlight could only leave his handsome shadow on the ground. His handsome and indifferent face was illuminated by the brilliance exposed.Squinting his eyes, his eyes were sharp and sharp, and his ruthless expression was complemented by his withdrawn eyes that didn't look very friendly. "Why is it you again?" Qi Mu had already defined Mi Kaka as a follower.But Mi Kaka really wanted to ask, why did he meet this black-bellied guy everywhere he went.He refuses this kind of evil fate arranged by the heavens!

"Don't keep calling me a follower, okay? I also have self-respect." Mikaka had to protect his reputation.Let Qi Mu continue to slander like this, and Mi Kaka's reputation will be rotten.

"How much is your self-esteem worth?" Qi Mu still had a look of disdain.

"It's worth [-] million. Come on." Mi Kaka didn't bother to argue with this man.He put away his cell phone, intending to stride away.In short, the farther away from Qi Mu, the better.Nothing good is going to happen with this guy.

Seeing Mikaka's figure go further and further away, Qi Mu stood where he was, with a sneer on his lips.The smile was contemptuous but frivolous, and the indifferent white lips and teeth did not conceal the contempt for Mi Kaka, which contained a strong sense of contempt. , he took another bite of the apple, and was about to turn around and leave in the opposite direction, but at this moment, a figure among the tourists yelled at him: "Xiao Po!"

Small break?What a familiar yet unfamiliar address, how long has it been since Qi Mu heard someone call him that?He didn't remember, probably a long time ago, he abandoned the name Xiao Po.It was like throwing his unbearable past into the garbage heap, rotting and decomposing with those times.He once thought he could forget everything, but it was just a simple title of "Xiao Po", which brought his memory back to the scenery of those years.

Who is calling him?
Qi Mu turned around and saw a girl walking out of the crowd, wearing a clean blue skirt, with a pretty face and long hair tied up, smiling at him.Wearing a floral dress, revealing slender white legs, a pair of white hands resting on the group.The girl's skirt is that kind of beautiful lavender, coupled with the flowery smile on the girl's thin lips, it immediately gives people the feeling of a rose in full bloom, and the charm exuded from the delicate and delicate facial features is even more beautiful. irresistible.

she is……?The dusty memories in Qi Mu's mind seemed to be blown away by the river wind, and all the past things and characters gradually became clear.As for this girl, her facial features gradually matched those of someone in her memory.

is her?Qi Mu stood where he was, feeling a little overwhelmed for a while.

"Xiao Po? Xiao Po! It's really you!" The girl walked over quickly.She carefully looked at Qi Mu in front of her: "You have grown so much taller that I almost couldn't recognize you. Besides, you have become so handsome." The girl was still laughing, but Qi Mu didn't make a sound, and turned around Just want to leave.

The girl stood behind her and said, "Is it really okay to just leave like this? It's the same as back then?"

Qi Mu's footsteps stopped.He turned his head and looked at the girl.

There was a strange smile on her face, and there was a hint of coldness in it. She walked over and said, "How about it? Would you like to go for a drink with your former companion? You won't give me some face, right?" ?”

After all, she didn't care whether Qi Mu agreed or not, so she went straight to the opposite side of the road.

Also like a ghost, Qi Mu's footsteps seemed to be led by her, and he followed her silently.

The two came to a coffee shop not far from the Bund.

After sitting down, the girl ordered two cups of coffee.While stirring the cup with a spoon, she looked at Qi Mu.It was like looking at a long-lost partner, and there was always an unknown smile on the corner of her mouth.

"I didn't expect to meet you in Shanghai." The girl said, "After so many years, you won't forget my name."

How could you forget?Her name is Tian Yena, and she was a friend many years ago.Qi Mu remembered it clearly, but he didn't express his emotions or anger, and just looked at her silently.The coffee on the table was slowly emitting heat.And Qi Mu's face was still just cold.

"How have you been all these years?" Tian Yena stared at him, Qi Mu thought for a while, and then slowly moved his lips, "It's not good."

His answer was concise and clear.

Tian Yena smiled again: "Your personality has not changed, you are still as cruel as before."

There was no smile on Qi Mu's face.

Tian Yena said as if chatting about family matters, "What work are you doing?"

"No, I don't have a job." Qi Mu said, and he didn't lie about that.As a red criminal, he is a vagrant.

"Really? That's right. Calculated by your age, you should still be studying now." Tian Yena said, staring at Qi Mu's eyes with a pair of moist eyes, trying to peek into the depths of his heart.However, Qi Mu had a calm face, his pupils deep into the cold pool were calm and unmoved at all.This is really Xiaopo she knows.Tian Yena thought to herself.

Next, it's a bit like her talking to herself, because Qi Mu has always been indifferent.While drinking coffee, she said, "I dropped out of junior high school. You know, children like us who come out of orphanages cannot receive a good education. And I am working as a nanny now. This job says It’s not bad, it’s not bad, but I can support myself at last.”

Listening to her words, Qi Mu always looked solemn and indifferent.The corners of the indifferent mouth were closed without emotion, without the slightest intention to speak.

"You still remember the orphanage we stayed in. I heard that it has been demolished now." Tian Yena suddenly mentioned this place.Qi Mu's thoughts seemed to immediately return to that summer of that year.

A long time ago, maybe ten years ago, he was a child.He grew up in an orphanage because he had no parents.That orphanage housed many children like him.In the eyes of outsiders, this is a place to promote love.However, the orphanage has a dark side that is unknown.The superficially kind, dean who is regarded as a great benevolent person by the outside world is secretly a villain who abuses orphans.Most of the money and materials donated to the orphanage are filled by her, and the orphans can only eat porridge and pickles every day. There will be delicious meals such as fish and eggs on the table, but when the visitors leave, these things will all be removed.
