Mystery Leaks

Chapter 48 The Inside Story of the Engagement

I went upstairs step by step, when I heard rustling in the upstairs room, obviously Xu Jiaojiao was pushing the piano box back under the bed.

After going upstairs, she just walked to the door of my room; I pretended to be taken aback, "Hey, the warehouse is next door, why are you going to my room?"

"Oh, I... I think your room is a bit messy, so I tidy it up for you." Xu Jiaojiao said, her expression was obviously a little unnatural.

"My room has always been like this, so I don't need to tidy up." I smiled, turned around and went to the warehouse to get some goods and parts from the counter, and then went downstairs with her.

Xu Jiaojiao's scheme failed, but she was quite patient, and she didn't make excuses to go upstairs, and went back after being busy for a while, saying that she would come back tomorrow.

I was quite surprised by Xu Jiaojiao's patience. She is a very anxious person, and once she fails, she dies, which can only explain one thing.Investigating the woman in red is very important to the person behind Xu Jiaojiao, so important that no mistakes are allowed, so she has to be patient.

The next day was the market day, and the business was very busy. I was afraid that I would accidentally give her a chance if I made a mistake in the busy schedule, so I took Meng Shuisheng over early in the morning.

When she came, I asked her to call out business with Meng Shuisheng, and I stayed upstairs to repair the phone, leaving no room for her.Although Xu Jiaojiao went up and down the stairs many times, it was impossible for her to have a chance.

On the third day, the street was busy, and the business was not busy, but she still came.I went up and down the stairs twice in the middle, and I caught it on the surveillance and destroyed it.

On the fourth day, Xu Jiaojiao persevered, but I was embarrassed.

Because if the damage continues, Xu Jiaojiao will be overwhelmed no matter how dull she is, and there is a high possibility that there is someone behind her.

The most troublesome thing is that I dare not leave the store for a moment because of her, because I will give her a chance;

It seems that there are only two options left for him, one, to follow her and see who she is in contact with; two, to hide the piano box.

After thinking about it, I decided to follow her first, and then hide the piano box. She is so stubborn, the piano box must have important secrets, and she must not be allowed to take the picture of the piano box away.

In order to make it easier to follow, I deliberately found some work for her, and kept her busy until dark. After she left, I changed into a suit of clothes and put on a hat, and followed her from a distance in the dark.

Xu Jiaojiao was a little vigilant at first, but I pretended not to let her recognize her, and after a while, my vigilance decreased.She was very annoyed by not being able to take a sneak shot for several days, and she could vaguely hear her cursing, kicking stones on the road away from time to time.

But it was too far away, so I couldn't hear what she was cursing clearly.

Soon, it was completely dark, Xu Jiaojiao walked to a fork in the road, looked around vigilantly, and then walked in quickly.

My heart skipped a beat, this path is not the way back to her house, my luck is so good, I caught the opportunity right away.

I followed cautiously, Xu Jiaojiao walked quickly, and after walking for a while, her figure disappeared near an old house by the roadside.

I recognize this house. It belongs to a family named Tu in the village. There are no old and young in the family. There are only three sons who work in the coastal area all the year round. The house has been abandoned for many years.

One more thing must be said here, the reputation of the Tu family is very bad, especially the three sons, they are simply three mad dogs, even Liu Erlong, the "hands-on" in the village, felt his legs go weak when he saw them.

Of course, this has nothing to do with me following Xu Jiaojiao for the time being.Xu Jiaojiao must have come here to meet someone, the abandoned house is the best choice.

I walked over as lightly as possible, and sure enough, I heard someone talking in the courtyard.

First, Xu Jiaojiao seemed to be complaining, saying that she had failed several times, and then figured out a way.

At this time, a somewhat familiar man's voice sounded: "Xu Jiaojiao, don't tell me that nonsense, the old master is not happy if I haven't got the photo for four days."

I was taken aback for a moment, where did I hear this voice before, and I was shocked when I recalled it carefully, it was him, the tomb robber with a scar on his face.Last time in the old house, he and the tomb robber forced me to open my grandfather's coffin, but Cao Nan and Huang Mao forced me to retreat with a gun. It seems that I still know Huang Mao.

There was a storm in my heart, Xu Jiaojiao was with the tomb robbers?

And there is a mysterious old master behind them.

"You have the nerve to talk about me?" Xu Jiaojiao was upset, and said, "Meng Lei and his grandfather's coffins were already in hand. You guys missed such a good opportunity for nothing, otherwise why would there be so many troubles?"

"Shut up!" The tomb robber was choked, obviously a little hairy, and said angrily: "My task is far more difficult than yours. I lost four men to deal with that old ghost, and I used the little red building to force the old ghost back. , you just went upstairs to take a few photos with your fiancé, you are not qualified to compare with me."

"What fiancé, just a rustic and poor country bumpkin. If it weren't for your mistakes, I would still have to try to curry favor with him. In my opinion, just force it. Why is it so troublesome?" Xu Jiaojiao was annoyed.

I gritted my teeth when I heard this, now it's a certainty, the marriage between her and me is a conspiracy.

"What do you know? There is a very powerful thing standing behind him. You can't act rashly until you investigate clearly; this is what the old master wants. You'd better not do anything out of the ordinary. The situation in Jinpen Township is complicated and dangerous now. .”

The tomb robber said after a pause, "Also, I warn you, it's best to maintain a good relationship with Meng Lei, he is very important to us, we must be able to hold him in our hands, and getting married is also a form of marriage if necessary. choose."

"Don't even think about it, when you sent me back, you agreed, I just met him..." Xu Jiao was anxious.

"Shut up, this is what the old master meant. If you have any opinions, tell the old master!" Before she could finish speaking, the tomb robber interrupted impatiently.

"You..." Xu Jiaojiao was in a hurry, but she didn't dare to contradict her, all she could hear was her rapid breathing.

The two were silent for a while, and the tomb robber calmed down a little, "Okay, it's useless to talk too much, I haven't got the photo for four days, what's going on, did the kid wake up?"

Xu Jiajia also calmed down, and said: "He may not want others to know the existence of the Qin coffin. I tested him last month, and he lied to me that it was just a cardboard box; the time I spend upstairs these days is only After a while, he'll go upstairs; but he probably doesn't know my goal yet, because the piano case has never been moved under the bed."

The tomb robber was silent for a while, "Then what are you going to do?"

"I want to wait for a few days, but I'm pressing it. I'm afraid that he will move the piano case, and it will be more troublesome. The Huang Xiaoji next to him looks at me wrongly." Xu Jiaojiao said.

"Then you'd better hurry up, the old master has no patience." The tomb robber said, and after he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming towards the outside.

I hurriedly huddled in the corner and held my breath. The tomb robber walked out of the yard, picked up a bicycle under the wall, looked around cautiously, and rode away.

He was wearing a sweatshirt, a straw hat, and his trousers were rolled up. He looked like a farmer in the countryside, and he was well-disguised.

Xu Jiaojiao cursed a few words, and also left the yard.

I was afraid of being discovered, so I stayed in the corner for more than ten minutes before going back.

During this trip, the information obtained exploded!
Xu Jiaojiao was sent to me by a so-called "Old Master", and she even married me in order to achieve an unknown goal.

The tomb robber and her were accomplices, but they were not superior or subordinate. Because Xu Jiaojiao contradicted him, they should have acted separately and independently, but the goal at this stage overlapped, which was to investigate the woman in red.

They sensed the danger behind me, but they didn't mention the characteristics of the woman in red. Maybe they just knew that there was danger behind me, but they didn't know what it was. This was also the purpose of their investigation of the piano coffin.

And judging from the tomb robber's words, the situation in Jinpen Township is not completely under their control, so that they act cautiously.The last time his four men were skinned was a bloody lesson.

They even mentioned Xiaohonglou, and the owner of Xiaohonglou is the widow Sai Yuer.

Thinking of this, I can't help but feel my scalp go numb. Even the planners on one side can't figure out the current situation in Jinpen Township.

Under the seemingly peaceful night in Jinpen Township, how many undercurrents are surging?
