My years of espionage

Chapter 939 Aunt Ma (Happy Lantern Festival)
Yang Changnian and his colleagues talked while walking, the two of them had cigarettes in their mouths, and they seemed to be talking about a very happy topic.

Then, Yang Changnian saw a notice posted on the telegraph pole next to the noodle shop diagonally opposite. He and his colleagues went over to look at it. It was to remind good citizens to beware of the scam of "children read letters".

Yang Changnian caught a glimpse of three drops of ink that seemed to have been accidentally dripped on the bottom of the new notice.

He took out his cigarette case and handed a cigarette to his colleague, "Go first, don't wait for me, I'll go to the toilet."

Colleagues inevitably complained, saying that Yang Changnian was a lazy person who pooped a lot, so he went ahead with a cigarette tucked behind his head.

Yang Changnian went into the latrine and pretended to squat down.

About two or three minutes later, Li Hao came in.

"Brother Shi, you're doing well these days." Li Hao said with a smile.

"Brother Li, don't be so eager." Yang Changnian smiled wryly.

"Brother Shi, I'm not in a hurry." Li Hao said, "Brother Fan asked me to ask you, what did you find?"

"I don't know the details." Yang Changnian smiled wryly, "I only know that one day I went to the prison cell alone to meet Wang Kangnian, and Wang Kangnian's life became easier after that."

"Do you know who went to see Wang Kangnian?" Li Hao asked.

"I don't know." Yang Changnian smiled wryly, "I was dismissed that day."

Li Hao nodded. He saw Yang Changnian saying in sign language at the same time: "It's probably Li Cuiqun."

Yang Changnian is a veterinarian. When he was in school, he had a mute classmate, Yi Zhu, who was a good hand. In order to learn this skill, he taught himself sign language.

As for Haozi, Haozi, who was born as a beggar, knows a lot of crafts to make a living.

The two continued to chat about topics that could be talked about, but in fact they communicated secretly with sign language.

……

Li Hao: Is the enemy planning to attack Shanghai Station?
Yang Changnian: There is no sign.

'Speaking', he showed a thoughtful look, and said in sign language: Cao Yu has been going in and out of Jisfeier Road these days, and I don't know what he is busy with.

Li Hao showed a startled expression: You and Cao Yu are very familiar now?
Yang Changnian: Slightly familiar.

Li Hao: Where is Tong Xueyong?
Yang Changnian nodded, saying in his mouth, "Mr. Cheng has been kind to me, and Mr. Shi has repaid his kindness", and gestured with his hand: slightly familiar.

……

The noise from the arresting hall on the first floor spread upstairs, as if someone was arguing.

Cheng Qianfan frowned, and he murmured at the policeman who came in to bring him a kettle, "Go and see, what's going on, it's a mess."

Soon, the patrol came back with a strange expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a frown.

"Report to Vice President Cheng, there is a grandma making a fuss in the arresting hall."

"What a mess, get rid of it." Cheng Qianfan said impatiently, "Let's be quiet below."

"That granny said she is your neighbor, Vice President Cheng." The subordinate said quickly.

"Neighbor?" Cheng Qianfan was very surprised. He opened the door and walked out. The noise downstairs became clearer. After listening carefully, it turned out to be Aunt Ma's voice.

Cheng Qianfan shook his head and smiled, "Aunt Ma is indeed my old neighbor, go ahead and invite someone here."

"Yes!"

Hearing what Vice President Cheng said, the patrolman was relieved. Fortunately, he said a few more words more cautiously. If he went downstairs to chase people away without thinking, he would definitely die in the end.

Soon, Aunt Ma came up, to be exact, before the voice came.

"Oh, it's amazing." Aunt Ma cried, "Brother Fan, Aunt Ma, my coffin is..."

The policeman who brought up Aunt Ma burst out laughing.

Cheng Qianfan glared at him, so frightened that he quickly closed the door and went out.

"Aunt Ma, don't be in a hurry, come here, sit down, and talk slowly." Cheng Qianfan helped Aunt Ma and said, "If you have anything to tell me, Brother Fan will make the decision for you."

"Allah knows that Brother Fan has a heart and won't ignore the old woman." Aunt Ma said immediately, wiping her tears when she heard the words.

Cheng Qianfan was amused, he knew Aunt Ma was waiting for his words.

He opened the cabinet, took a box of snacks, poured another cup of tea, and asked Aunt Ma to talk while eating.

A box of snacks is finished.

The teacup was refilled twice.

Aunt Ma has just finished talking about the "tragedy" she encountered.

……

Aunt Ma was cheated, to be precise, the old woman fell into the scam of "children reading letters" that has just emerged in Shanghai:

Passers-by will see a young child on the side of the road with a letter in his hand, and they will come up to strike up a conversation when they meet someone.

Children will claim that they cannot read at a young age, and ask someone to read to them exactly what is written in the letter.

When the literate person reads the letter, his eyes will light up. It turns out that the letter is about sending a few sticks of high-quality ginseng by mail, and he must go to the certain post office to claim it in time.

Of course, there may be other valuable medicinal materials or items in the letter, such as top-quality bird's nest, etc., in short, it must be something that is enough to attract greed.

The child claimed that he picked up the letter by himself, and was about to go home and hand it to his parents. Because of curiosity, he first asked someone to read the contents of the letter.

Since it is something picked up, it means that whoever holds the letter can go to the post office to pick up the package.

This letter or note with a signature or stamp is the proof of claiming the parcel.

Seeing that this is just a child who knows nothing about the world, some people will be greedy and come up with crooked ideas, and give the child a few dollars to send him away.

Then when the person took the letter and rushed to the post office to pick up the package, he realized that it was a scam. Either the things mentioned in the letter did not exist at all, or there was really something to claim, but he took it home and took a look. , all dried radish, not even a ginseng hair.

Aunt Ma fell for this kind of scam. The old woman was cheated of five yuan. For Aunt Ma, who has always lived frugally and wanted to break a steel into eight petals, this is the old woman's old woman. dead.

Looking at Aunt Ma who was heartbroken, Cheng Qianfan knew that Aunt Ma was really heartbroken this time.

He opened his wallet, took five yuan and handed it to Aunt Ma.

"Aunt Ma, it's my ineffective management that has frightened you all the time. For the money, you..."

"No, you can't, Brother Fan." Aunt Ma said again and again, and when "Brother Fan" said it, five yuan had already been kicked into her pocket.

Cheng Qianfan comforted Aunt Ma again, saying that if there is any difficulty in the future, just come to the patrol room to look for him, Brother Fan will definitely support his old neighbor.

"Brother Fan, Allah knows that Yan is reliable." Aunt Ma thanked her a thousand times, muttering a word, wondering if she could still catch that little bastard.

Cheng Qianfan glanced at Aunt Ma and asked, "Where did Aunt Ma meet that little bastard who lied to you?"

Aunt Ma then said that she went to the market in Xizilai Huoxing Street today and stopped at the bookstore, maybe she was too hungry and was cheated on the way back because she was too hungry, and she didn't know where it was .

"When you get old, you must be careful. There is no way to guard against liars." Cheng Qianfan told Aunt Ma.

……

After Aunt Ma left, Cheng Qianfan's face darkened, and he fell into deep thought.

West Zilaihuo Street.

Who is walking on Xilaihuo Street?

Or, what happened to West Tap Fire Street?
Yes, the key to Aunt Ma's visit was to give her an address: Xizilai Huoxing Street.

Of course, it may also be that Aunt Ma is mainly sending a message for the five yuan.

Why is Cheng Qianfan so sure that Aunt Ma sent her the address?

Aunt Ma is illiterate!

How could an illiterate old woman fall into the 'letter-reading scam'?
Cheng Qianfan shook his head, he could probably guess that Aunt Ma came up with such an excuse to come to see him, maybe Aunt Ma heard about this letter-reading scam from somewhere, so she just used it.

Aunt Ma is a smart person.

It's just that, after all, she is clever, but she has forgotten that she is illiterate.

Well--

wrong.

Cheng Qianfan's expression was serious. The Aunt Ma he knew was not just a little clever, she was a very powerful old woman.

Aunt Ma's husband died early, and a widow who is unemployed can fight against her husband's wolf-like relatives without losing the wind, and successfully guard the house and small shop, which is not something ordinary people can do.

In addition, Aunt Ma has lived in Yandeli for 20 years. She has fought with her neighbors for so many years, and she has almost never suffered any real losses.

It's not an exaggeration to say that Aunt Ma's cleverness and quick-wittedness are beyond the reach of ordinary spies.

This old lady is amazing.

……

Cheng Qianfan instantly figured it out:

Aunt Ma is a smart person, and the old woman who has lived for so long is the best at avoiding bad luck. She is probably entrusted to report the news, but she knows that there are some things that she, an old woman, cannot interfere with. I fell into it, so I thought of a trick and used the flawed method of "reading the letter scam" to send the letter.

Brother Fan is clever, knowing that the old woman is illiterate, so he will realize the intention.

In this way, Cheng Qianfan understood that 'a bookstore in Huoxing Street in Xizilai' was the purpose of Aunt Ma's trip.

There was a smile on Cheng Qianfan's face. He still remembered that when he was a child, because he was scolded by Aunt Ma, he secretly played tricks. Then slip away.

He thought that this matter was done seamlessly, but he didn't expect Aunt Ma to come to the door after a while.

His father, Cheng Wenzao, beat him up and asked him if he was convinced and if he knew why he was beaten.

Cheng Qianfan was naturally unconvinced, saying that Aunt Ma had no evidence and wronged him.

The father smiled and beat him up, saying that it is okay for a boy to be naughty, the reason why he beat him was because he was blind and thought he was smart, but he offended the brightest woman in Yandeli.

West Zilaihuo Street, Bookstore.

Cheng Qianfan frowned and thought.

He lit a cigarette and inhaled lightly, two streams of smoke slowly expelled from his nasal cavity, his eyebrows furrowed.

Cheng Qianfan's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that he had overlooked the essence of this matter.

Aunt Ma is such a smart person. If this old woman is greedy for money, she is indeed greedy for money. However, Aunt Ma is a very smart person. It is impossible for her to easily agree to help outsiders for money, let alone get involved in danger. of things.

Then, Aunt Ma must know the person who asked Aunt Ma to send a message to him.

Aunt Ma knows.

And most importantly, this person should have some kind of important connection with him, or in other words, in Aunt Ma's eyes, this person has an intimate relationship with Cheng Qianfan.

And this kind of intimacy is the reason why Aunt Ma is willing to help out on this trip.

Big Brother Luxingo!
Cheng Qianfan had a judgment in his mind.

Luxingo visited Yandri several times in the early years.

Aunt Ma has met Lu Xingge. Aunt Ma may not know Lu Xingge's name, but she knows that Lu Xingge is his sworn brother.

In this way, everything will be straightened out.

……

Yandri.

After returning home, Aunt Ma glanced at the lack of coal pellets at the door, put her hands on her hips, pointed at the door of Zhao Laolan's house next door, and cursed.

Zhao Laolan, who has been fighting with Aunt Ma for 20 years, is naturally not afraid and takes up the challenge decisively.

Neighbors in the neighborhood saw this daily repertoire, some poked their heads out to enjoy it, some even held a small handful of melon seeds and watched the show while eating melon seeds, and some felt annoying and couldn't help shouting to persuade them to fight.

The quarrel ended with the fact that Aunt Ma went to Zhao Laolan's house to rummage through boxes and cabinets and asked for a needle and two feet of thread as compensation.

Not to be outdone, Zhao Laolan took his worn-out coat and asked Aunt Ma to help him mend it, so that the two countries could stop fighting temporarily.

If there is such a good thing, he shouted, you two can live together together.

This remark pierced the sky, how could Aunt Ma, who had been widowed all her life, bear this? people.

Everyone ran away, and the decent old Zhao licked his face and stayed at Aunt Ma's house to ask her to help mend the coat.

Although everyone was very curious, they no longer dared to watch.

"Did you go to the police station today?" Zhao Laolan asked.

"I was entrusted to take a trip." Aunt Ma took Zhao Laolan's coat and said, mending it skillfully.

"There are some things that we can't get involved in." Zhao Laolan said with a sullen face.

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid." Aunt Ma said.

Saying that, the old woman grinned, "If you can understand what it means, that's good luck. If you don't understand, you can't blame my old woman."

"You just haven't died yet." Zhao Laolan sighed, "If Ninth Brother is alive, I will also specify that you live in peace and stability."

As he said that, Zhao Laolan said with a solemn expression, "Brother Fan is not simple, and now he is so close to the Japanese, so be careful not to put yourself in it."

"Brother Fan was the one we grew up watching..." Aunt Ma said.

"Good bamboos can produce bad shoots, who knows these days." Zhao Laolan said with emotion.

Aunt Ma didn't speak any more, she just concentrated on mending the coat. Suddenly, she asked, "What did you find out about the Kaisen Road incident? Did Fifth Brother and the others do it?"

Zhao Laolan shook his head, his face showed a strange expression, "That thing is weird, everyone said it was done by the Iron Blood Anti-Japanese Rape Suppression Group, but it doesn't look like it to me."

……

No. 22 Xue Huali Road.

Li Hao returned to the patrol room in a hurry.

"Brother Fan, Shi Lei said that someone went to see Wang Kangnian, but he didn't know who that person was." Li Hao met Cheng Qianfan who was walking his dog downstairs, and posted a report.

A passer-by patrol heard the name 'Wang Kangnian' and smiled knowingly. The feud between Mr. Xiao Cheng and Wang Kangnian is well known in Shanghai. First they heard that Wang Kangnian was missing, and later they heard that he was arrested by the Japanese. , isn't he dead yet?

The patrolman hurried away.

Li Hao followed Cheng Qianfan who was walking the dog, and the two walked towards the secluded dog walking place.

"Brother Fan, Yang Changnian said he found nothing unusual." Li Hao said.

"Notify Taozi, Haozai, it's time to do something." Cheng Qianfan interrupted Li Hao and said in a deep voice.

PS: Ask for subscription, ask for reward, ask for monthly pass, thank you.

　Happy Lantern Festival everyone.

Guaranteed first.

The update is still in the code, and it will be provided at night. You can watch it tomorrow during the day.

Baili said that in view of my special physique, I shouldn't say the word 'replenishment', just because I was worried that something unexpected would happen to me today.

Sure enough, the smart lock at home suddenly broke down and could not be opened from the inside, and the family was locked at home.

Fortunately, there was no danger, and the after-sales master came to help open it.
