【Chapter 24】

Mingcheng sat on a chair in the lobby on the first floor of No. 76, holding a cup of hot tea and waiting for Wang Manchun.

It was time to get off work, and people around him came and went. From time to time, some people sneaked a glance at him, and nodded to each other if they knew each other, but no one came to say a word.

Minglou's shot in the afternoon made everyone think that Ah Cheng had come to settle accounts after the fall. No one wanted to have anything to do with this matter. They could hide as far as they could, so when everyone left, few people came to talk to him.

Ah Cheng didn't care either, and concentrated on drinking tea with a teacup, turning a deaf ear to the whispering around him, pretending that he didn't hear it.Sure enough, Wang Manchun came out soon. She was wearing casual clothes and a black overcoat, tightly wrapped.

He glanced down and saw her black high heels.

"Ah Cheng." Wang Manchun approached and greeted quietly.

"Miss Manchun." He stood up.

"I've been waiting for a long time." Wang Manchun said, "What can I do for you?"

"I just..." Ah Cheng lowered his voice, "I want to chat with you."

Wang Manchun was taken aback: "With me?"

Ah Cheng smiled awkwardly, hesitantly said: "Of course, if you don't have time..."

"No, I'm off work." Wang Manchun said immediately.

To be honest, she didn't even want to read Liang Zhongchun's interrogation method, so within 10 minutes after entering, she excused Ah Cheng to ask her to come out first.

Before leaving, Liang Zhongchun had a wicked smile on his face: "Mingcheng is looking for you? What can I do?"

"How do I know." Wang Manchun replied, "Try your prisoner. It's best to get the result today, the sooner the better, otherwise the news will spread, and people will run away in two or three days."

"All right, all right, go." Liang Zhongchun said, "However, if you do this, you are not participating in the interrogation. In the report, I will..."

"Remember Director Liang's credit." She interrupted him abruptly, and left the interrogation room without looking back.

Hearing what she said, Ah Cheng had a smile on his face: "Can you have dinner?"

"That's not necessary. I don't think I have time to finish dinner. If Director Liang moves fast enough, I will have a task to do within an hour." Wang Manchun said.

Ah Cheng frowned calmly: "Then I'll take you home?"

"Okay." Wang Manchun thought for a while and added: "Did you drive?"

Ah Cheng shrugged: "No."

Wang Manchun rolled his eyes, leaned over and asked softly, "Didn't you relapse from an old injury?"

"It's okay to walk for a while," Ah Cheng said.

It was a little late when Wang Manchun came out.

The two walked out of the gate of Garden House No. 76 side by side, and followed Wang Manchun's usual way home.Wang Mansion is not far from No. 76, and Wang Manchun usually takes Wang's car to get there in about ten minutes. There are tree-lined roads on both sides, because there are few residents and the street lights are not bright, so you can only see the obstacles on the road clearly.

It had just rained, and there were many small puddles on the road. Wang Manchun had just changed his shoes and carefully avoided each puddle. To Ah Cheng, she looked like a little girl, jumping around.

He also followed her around the puddle, his steps were bigger than hers, and he came out in a hurry, the leather shoes hadn't been changed yet, and there was a lot of mud on them.

"Today, elder brother is in a hurry because of elder sister's affairs, don't worry about it." Ah Cheng said.

Wang Manchun shook his head: "I don't want to know, and I don't want to care about anything about Ding Spiegel. You don't need to explain to me."

This answer exceeded Ah Cheng's expectations. He thought she would care about Minglou's emotions, but he didn't expect to get such an answer.So he asked, "Then what do you want to know?"

Wang Manchun turned to look at him: "Can you tell me everything I want to know?"

"I told you." Ah Cheng smiled.

"I know everything."

"I know everything."

Two people said at the same time.

"There's one more word to add," Wang Manchun said with a mischievous smile: "It's endless."

"it is good."

"Then tell me, what happened to your injury?" Wang Manchun asked.

"The injury happened a long time ago..." Ah Cheng knew that she was vigilant, and had already prepared a set of excuses, "You should know that I was adopted by my elder brother and elder sister."

"Yeah." She pretended to be listening, and turned her head to look at him.

"My original adoptive mother was a servant of the Ming family. I was adopted by her when I was two years old, and was not adopted by my eldest brother until I was ten." Ah Cheng said slowly, licking his lips, "Do you know why? ?”

Wang Manchun thought for a while: "Your adoptive mother passed away?"

Ah Cheng smiled wryly: "It would be fine if that's the case."

Wang Manchun thought for a while, then shook his head: "Then I don't know."

"My adoptive mother," Cheng paused, took a deep breath before saying, "Since I was four years old, I was abused by my elder brother until I was ten years old."

Wang Manchun was stunned.

Ah Cheng's eyes were lowered, his eyelashes were long, and the light was turned off so that she couldn't see his gaze.It's just that his expression was very calm and his tone was flat, as if the victim of the experience was not him, but someone else.

"My injury was caused by being punished by her to kneel when I was a child wearing too little winter clothes. I was frozen in the snow all night. It happened on rainy days, and I'm used to it." Ah Cheng continued, and then lifted his He looked at Wang Manchun and said, "That's why elder brother never told you about it." He smiled slightly: "He doesn't want others to pity me. He said, the more my adoptive mother tortured and killed me, the more he wanted me to be a healthy person, a normal person. man, a highly educated man."

Wang Manchun stopped in her tracks, she stared at him for a while, and then laughed: "You did a good job."

He saw the faint glint of water in her eyes, and subconsciously wanted to touch the handkerchief, but suddenly remembered that the handkerchief had not been returned from her.

"Don't cry." He said dryly, "It's nothing."

Wang Manchun nodded, but tears still fell down unexpectedly.She hurriedly wiped her tears with her hands, but fortunately there was only one drop, which quickly dried in the night breeze.

She turned her head sideways, took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and wiped off the remaining tears.

Ah Cheng recognized that the handkerchief in her hand was the one he gave a few days ago, and Wang Manchun also noticed it. She folded the handkerchief and said, "I took it back and wanted to wash it before I exchange it for you. In the past two days Too busy, I forgot for a while, next time, I will definitely return it to you."

Ah Cheng hummed, and said, "If you like, you can use it."

Wang Manchun laughed: "How can a girl like a man's handkerchief?"

"That's right." Ah Cheng smiled, seeing that her smile had returned to normal, he said after a while, "What happened just now was to explain my injury, I'm afraid you might suspect it."

He was suddenly open and honest, but Man Chun didn't know how to deal with it.

She did wonder, how could a scholar's assistant get hurt on his leg?

Unless Minglou is not just a scholar, how could he have contacts with senior officials of No. 76 like Zhou Fohai, and also communicated a lot with the new government officials.More importantly, the Japanese suspect him, and he has not exposed any clues so far, so he has to be suspected of being a well-trained spy transformed from the Central Command or the Military Command.

As his assistant and secretary, Ah Cheng is naturally the main object of suspicion.

Her eyes flickered slightly, she looked into his eyes, and said very seriously: "I care about you."

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, and continued walking along the boulevard.

Wang Manchun didn't know what Ah Cheng was going to do.

She entered the gate of Wang's mansion, and quickly returned to her room. She could see Mingcheng's figure from the window on the second floor, and she still walked back in a graceful and unhurried manner.

He went to No. 76 to wait for her to get off work. This incident was already very suspicious, and he was still injured. He didn't even stumble when answering, and the story seemed to be true...

What is he going to do?

She watched his figure disappear from sight, frowning slightly.

She thought she just couldn't see the transparent building, but now she couldn't even understand Ah Cheng.Intuition told her that things were not as simple as what she saw, there were flaws everywhere, but there seemed to be a fog in front of her eyes, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

Knowing that she might be on a mission at night, she changed into thicker clothes. Just as she was dressed and sat down to drink tea, the phone rang hastily. Liang Zhongchun's voice was a little excited: "Director Wang, we're recruiting, Field Road No. [-], Pu Lanfang Tailor Shop!"

"Got it." She replied bluntly, then hung up the phone, took her car keys and ran out in a hurry.
