【Maple Sakura】【Ju Shi】Partner

In the middle of the night before New Year's Eve in 1933, there was a thin snow in the sky, and the singing and dancing in Xianlesi was disrupted by the sudden chaos. Why did the characters come here at the same time on this day, fighting over a singer.

In the chaos, one of them ran up the corridor on the second floor. In the empty corridor, a man was wearing a top hat to cover his eyebrows and eyes, with a smile on his lips, leaning against the wall with his shoulders in his arms, "Xu Changhai is an alias, you use it quite well. "The low voice seemed to be a smile but not a smile, which made people shudder.

The person's face turned pale in an instant, "Wuyi..."

"Old classmate, long time no see." Wuyi Shi Yin smiled and turned around in a hurry, took out a pistol unhurriedly, made a wrong step, and the pistol hit the back of the opponent's head, "The class teacher asked me to bring it to you. In a word, you are so talented, but it’s a pity that you don’t use it in the right place.”

The other party didn't dare to move. Hearing what Wuyi Shi Yin said in his ear, he said tremblingly, "For the sake of my classmates, please spare my life. I can give you money, and you can make a price as you like."

"Oh?" Wuyi Shi Yin raised his eyebrows and put down the gun in his hand.The other party was obviously relieved, but in the next moment, Wuyi Shi Yin covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and then cut his throat with a dagger, "Traitor, there is no chance of begging for mercy, Xu Brother." He caught the limp body and smiled softly, then dragged the person who had stopped moving aside, opened the window at hand and jumped out.

"It's finally come out. I'm really worried that if you fail in the assassination, you will be killed instead." Fengxiu was wrapped in a coat and was relieved to see Wuyi Shi Yin jumping down from the second floor. He reached out and took out a bottle of whiskey from his arms, "Come on." Well, the trick is over."

"I don't like to drink whiskey." Unclothed Master Yin frowned, took it and drank half of the bottle in one go and handed it back.

Fengxiu rolled her eyes, "Where can I find French red wine for you?" He raised his head and drank the other half of the bottle, then threw the bottle away, "It's really boring to drink empty mouth. Let's go, my dear cousin."

A small leader of the Green Gang died in Cairus, and the street was blocked in an instant. When the police came to check the frightened guests one by one, two half-drunk people in decent clothes supported each other, and the smell of alcohol was really unpleasant. Comfortable, "I, I live in... hiccup, that newly opened pharmacy on Front Street, this, this is my cousin." Fengxiu patted the policeman on the shoulder, "Boss, you must be tired. If so, I will pay for it. I'll order wine for you to eat."

The hot wine became the best consolation on this winter night. Fengxiu and Wuyi Shi Yin supported each other and were released by several police officers without even a body search.The two walked all the way to the back door of Fengxiu's drugstore and knocked on the door, Fu Ying opened the door and took them in. "Sir, after drinking, do you still have supper at night?" Helping the two half-drunk people to hang up their coats and hats, Fuying came back after closing the door and asked.

"I didn't enjoy the wine of Cirrus, why don't I cook a few random dishes now, and I'll have a drink with my cousin?" Feng Xiu looked at Wuyi Shi Yin with a smile.

"Alright." Wuyi Shi Yin nodded, and Fuying agreed to go. He propped his head on one hand and looked at the neatly placed medicines in the pharmacy. There was a fire, and the room was so hot that people couldn't open their eyes. "You really made a lot of money looking for this little partner."

Fengxiu smiled and did not speak, and leaned back on the chair with half-closed eyes, the two of them kept silent about the task just now, watching Fu Ying bring four plates of side dishes in a short while, old Peking's snacks were mushy, a plate of cooked and cut Beef sauce, a plate of spiced peanuts, and a bowl of hot and sour soup.

"How old is this child?" Wuyi Shi Yin smiled as he looked at the dishes served.

"Eleven." Feng Xiu closed his eyes and replied.

"Birthday is over, it's already twelve." Fu Ying answered while laying out the dishes.

"When did it happen?" Feng Xiu opened his eyes and looked at Fu Ying.

"The 25th of the twelfth lunar month, four days ago." Fu Ying put away the tray and turned to leave, bringing another jug ​​of wine.

"Where are you from?" Wuyi Shi Yin asked again.

"Northeast." Fuying replied.

"Have studied opera for two years? Can you sing?" Wuyi Shi Yin's curiosity about Fu Ying is obviously not over yet, Fu Ying is a little helpless, and turns her head to look at Feng Xiu for help.

Fengxiu directly took up the conversation, "When I bought him from the theater troupe, the troupe owner said that he was almost ready to perform on stage. He is a singer who sings in Tsing Yi. I thought that when he might be useful in the future, let him practice for a while these days. .”

"You are far-sighted." Wuyi Shi Yin smiled and took a bite of the food, "I found such a cute kid who can go out of the hall and into the kitchen. He can still listen to the opera every day, really..."

Fengxiu glanced at Wuyi Shi Yin unkindly, "If you think I'm a pervert, just say so."

"Hahahaha." Wuyi Shi Yin laughed. He took a sip of wine and chatted with Fengxiu for a few words. The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier. The two chatted about some old things. When they talked about Jilu, they talked more than usual After a few words, Fengxiu then called Fu Ying to let him sing a play.

As soon as Fu Ying opened his mouth, he sang the famous piece "Su San Qi Jie", his voice was clear and clear, even though it was only singing a cappella, it sounded very enjoyable.At the end of the song, the wine was exhausted, Wuyi Shi Yin went to the guest room to rest, and Fu Ying followed Fengxiu back to the room.

"The past few days have been teaching you to observe the details. What have you seen since we came back just now?" Fengxiu went back to the room and sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, looking at Fu Ying.

"When Mr. entered the door, I gave him a hand and felt a gun in his waist." Fu Ying said in a low voice, "So Mr. should not just go out to drink."

Feng Xiu took a sip of tea and smiled, "Continue."

"When I was locking the gate, I heard people talking outside that Cairus had died. There were patrols over there, and the road was blocked. When I was helping your cousin make the bed just now, I saw a drop of blood on his shirt cuff, together with the two of you just now. When I came back, I pretended to be drunk." Fuying's voice was not high, but she said each sentence clearly.

"What does this mean?" Fengxiu's smile deepened.

"It means that the matter of Cairus is related to the two of you." Fu Ying looked at Fengxiu's words and said, "In other words, Mr. killed that person."

Fengxiu laughed, "It looks like I really made money." He stood up and leisurely opened the closet and changed into a pajamas, "From tomorrow onwards, when there are no outsiders around, you can just call me Fengxiu, Mr. , just pretend."

……

Wuyi Shi Yin got up early the next morning when the pharmacy was empty. When he walked around, he saw a large box of wrapped dumplings and a note on the counter with Fengxiu's handwriting profusely.

"Dear cousin!! I think my little partner has a bright future. We can officially break up the partnership. On the table are dumplings made by Fuying. I will give you a big family to celebrate the New Year. I will go out with the little guy, so you don't have to Leave me here for the Chinese New Year, back door, walk slowly, don’t send me off.”

"Tsk..." Wuyi Shi Yin rolled his eyes and looked at the wooden boxes on the table where there were quite a lot of dumplings. He was not polite, just picked up the dumplings and went out the door.After all, the street still had a bit of a youthful feel to it. Wuyi Shi Yin walked all the way back to his hotel, and as soon as he entered the door, he was met with compassionate and worried eyes.

"Where did teacher go last night?" Sashou Mercy saw Wuyi Shi Yin hurriedly stood up from the stairs.

"Go out to meet friends." Wuyi Shi Yin handed over the dumpling box, "What's the matter with your black eyes?"

"He waited for you all night." A taunt came from the second floor, Wuyi Shi Yin raised his head and saw Chu Wushang hugging his shoulders and looking at him.

"Our dinner guests said last night that Cairus is dead, I'm worried about the teacher." Sashou Mercy stood up and took Wuyi Shi Yin's coat and gave Shu Wushang a look.

Wuyi Shi Yin nodded, "Sa'er, go and call them all, I have something to say."

"Oh..." Sashou nodded compassionately, and in the study a few minutes later, five young men were standing neatly.

Wuyi Master Yin threw Fengxiu's note directly on the table, "Let me make a long story short, since you guys have the consciousness to follow me, you must have the consciousness to do something different. From today onwards, start in groups of two , you are free to choose your own partner, I will arrange the next training for you, and there will be tasks in the future."

"This..." Sashou Mercy and the others looked at each other, five people, two by two, meaning... there will be one more person, Wuyi Shi Yin didn't say what would happen if there was an extra person, but Judging from what he meant, he probably wanted to be kicked out of the hotel directly.

Sashou Mercy thought so, directly chose Yiyu to give his life, drew his sword and washed Hui to hold back Huihui's fall into the world, and looked at Wuyi Shi Yin with an indifferent face, "Why? You don't choose?"

"Isn't there still you?" Shu Wushang shrugged, "There are exactly six people in total, two by two."

"What kind of operation are you doing?" Sashou Mercy was stunned and turned to look at Chu Wushang.

"As the saying goes, if you play bad chess, you will get angry, and the more you play, the worse it will be. Instead of being with you guys, it's better to find the strongest one in the room." Chu Wushang said with a face of indifference, "Besides, I didn't argue. It was you who chose first."

Wuyi master Yin Xiaoxiao, he acquiesced in the choice of Chu Wushang, and a few patrols came outside to check the hotel guests, so he directly asked Yiyu Shiming and Sashou Mercy to go out and make arrangements.I leaned against the door on the second floor to watch the fun.

"What are these people here to investigate?" Chu Wushang walked up to Wuyi Shi Yin and asked.

"Xilesi killed a small leader of the Green Gang." Wuyi Shi Yin didn't look back.

"It was you who did it." The voice of this sentence was very low, so low that only two people could hear it. Cu Wushang was standing behind Wuyi Shi Yin, such a sentence was like a thunderbolt.

Wuyi Shi Yin looked at Chu Wushang calmly, "Speak with evidence."

"The smell of alcohol on your body can't cover the smell of blood." Chu Wushang let out a snort and walked past Wuyi Shi Yin, letting go of mercy. Several people were leading people from room to room to check the IDs of the residents, but he kept going. With a cold face, he walked around to the back to look at the deer.

What kind of nose is this... Wuyi Shi Yin stood at the door for a long time before shaking his head helplessly, "It seems that people really can't be underestimated."

The atmosphere on New Year's Eve has become much warmer because of the addition of five so-called disciples and sisters, plus a large box of dumplings from Fengxiu. Wuyi Shi Yin didn't know it at the time, so he couldn't underestimate this sentence. After all, people said it was too early. Two years later, when Chu Wushang killed a target cleanly and beautifully, he really felt the crisis.
