The First Book The Empty Spirit Chapter 25 Stolen Letter

  For the next ten days, Wang Yaowu was busy every day, and most of the time he stayed in the office to review various files for investigation. Don't underestimate these files, which record the files of many people. By finding out some of those who have not been caught yet, corresponding to those who have been caught, and making formal confessions, it is possible to find out some names that have not been caught. According to the characteristics on the list, judgment can be made to find possible clues.

  By day, Wang Yaozu worked hard, but by night he was still Wang Yaozu. Having endured for so many days, he finally had the opportunity to call women over at night, and in one go, he called two women over. This went on for three consecutive nights. Due to the previous gathering incident causing too much of a commotion, Shangguan Hui was currently under house arrest.

  Three days later, Wang Ya Zu had enough of playing around for three days and temporarily stopped looking for women. Because Wang Ya Zu thought it was meaningless and boring.

  The next evening, Wang Ya-zu went to see Anthony specifically and told him about the matter of the Shangguan family. Anthony agreed to meet Mr. Shangguan right away. The follow-up matters were handled by Shangguan Hui's father who went to negotiate with Anthony, obviously seeking benefits from Mr. Shangguan. Wang Ya-zu did not intervene in this matter.

  Wang Yaizu was concerned about the matter of that batch of military supplies, but he had talked too much with Anthony and only exchanged two sentences.

  "Everything is going smoothly?!"

  "Everything is going smoothly. Arrived on time."

  It's just that simple, but everything is clear. The more you say, the more dangerous it is. All three parties are powerful people, and if there's a small problem, they can solve it themselves. If there's a big problem, it won't be easy to resolve.

  It's been busy for ten days, and there's not a single useful clue. Everyone is starting to worry, even Stone An Guo's side doesn't have any clues, but Stone An Guo still has that smelly face. Now everyone finally knows that Stone An Guo's money is not easy to take. But now it's not possible to return the gold bars, even if they are returned, Stone An Guo won't accept them.

  Tie Tou and Mao Zi were about to lose their breath, but these things seemed to have nothing to do with Le Yun Xin and Wang Yao Zu. Le Yun Xin still had that calm and peaceful look on his face, while Wang Yao Zu also looked unworried, saying "the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridgehead".

  Wang Ya Zu was a man of his word, and on Sunday he took the day off, appearing at the door of Shang Guan's house early in the morning, waiting for Shang Guan Hui to come out.

  This morning, Shangguan Hui also got up early and thought about what to wear. She considered Western-style clothes, cheongsam, trousers, and long dresses, but none of them seemed suitable. In the end, her mother helped her make a decision: since they were going for a stroll, it was better not to dress too casually, so she wore a simple school uniform top with a long skirt, which gave off a youthful vibe.

  Wang Ya Zu was very satisfied with Shang Guan Hui's new look, at least she now looked suitable for window shopping and going to department stores. In fact, this time Wang Ya Zu had also taken the initiative to accompany a woman on a shopping trip, it could even be said that it was his first time accompanying a girl on a shopping trip. The result was severe unpreparedness.

  For this day, Shangguan Hui took out all the pocket money she had saved for a year and let Wang Yaozu take care of it. In the department store, they made a big purchase. Whatever she liked, she bought it, buying for herself, her parents, and of course, also buying for Wang Yaozu.

  "Yaozu Ge, do you think this looks good?"

  "Yaozu Ge, it seems like your family is missing this, I'll buy it for you."

  "Yaozu Ge, this is quite delicious, try some. If it's good, we'll buy more."

  "Yaozu Ge, do you think I look good in this outfit? Someone is asking you a question! If you don't think it looks good, then we won't buy it."

  Wang Yaozu was very tired and exhausted. More exhausting than catching a cold. Originally, it was planned to be just one department store, but Wang Huai came with enthusiasm, and even strolled through the two adjacent department stores, spending all the money he brought, and Wang Yaozu also spent half of his own money.

  Wang Ya Zu doesn't care, spending as much as he earns. The problem is, the more money spent, the more things are bought; the more things are bought, the heavier the load in his hands becomes. Of course, Wang Ya Zu can't let Shang Guan Hui carry anything, all the purchased items end up in Wang Ya Zu's hands.

  Just as Wang Yaowu was about to collapse, Shangguan Hui finally stopped buying. Looking at the big and small packages in Wang Yaowu's hands, Shangguan Hui took some of the lighter things from Wang Yaowu's hands with a very embarrassed expression, but couldn't lift the heavier ones.

  "Yaozu, it's almost noon. Should we go home to eat or eat out? There are some restaurants nearby that serve delicious food, and the Huaiyang cuisine is very authentic." Shangguan Hui said while helping Wang Yaozu wipe away the sweat on his forehead.

  "There's so much food, let's just take it back home to eat. Wu Ma's cooking is no worse than those big chefs outside, I've already asked her to cook extra for you. She must have made your favorite dishes."

  "Hmm." As soon as Wang Yaozu invited her to his home for dinner, Shangguan Hui immediately agreed. This was the first time Wang Yaozu had proactively invited her to his home for dinner, and everything was already arranged in advance.

  Finally, he could go back, and Wang Yaowu let out a sigh of relief, but the things in his hands didn't allow him to relax yet. As soon as he walked out of the building's entrance, Wang Yaowu's first thing was to hail a rickshaw, otherwise he would have to walk all the way back, which would be exhausting for him.

  Before Wang Ya Zu even opened his mouth to hail a car, he heard someone beside him call out in a somewhat timid tone: "Mr. Wang, is that you? I'm Xiao Shan." Following the sound, Wang Ya Zu happened to see a little beggar nearby. Half a month had passed and Wang Ya Zu had almost forgotten about this little beggar, but as soon as the beggar called out to him, he immediately remembered.

  "Yaozu Ge, who is he?" Upper Officer Hui was naturally very curious about this sudden appearance of a little beggar.

  "Someone, Ah Hui, go call three yellow taxis over. Xiao Shan, this isn't a place for talking, help me carry half of these things and get on the taxi with me to head home, we'll talk about anything once we're inside my house."

  Wang Yaoyu was about to hand over half of the things in his hands to Xiaoshan, who was both a beggar and a thief. Xiaoshan was at a loss for what to do, so he quickly found a clean spot on his clothes and wiped his hands before taking the things from Wang Yaoyu.

  Three yellow cabs were called over quickly, and it just so happened to be mealtime, so there were fewer people calling for yellow cabs. That's why three yellow cabs came over at once. Wang Ya-zu got into the first one, Shangguan Hui was in the second, and Xiaoshan was in the third. After all three of them had gotten on, the three drivers headed off in the same direction, pulling their vehicles with all their might.

  They arrived at the destination, and he gave the driver the fare and a tip. Wang Ya-zu asked Xiao Shan-zi to follow him into his home. This was Xiao Shan-zi's first time entering Wang Ya-zu's home; he had never thought that someone he had only met once, who he knew was a thief, would entrust so many things to him on the street and now invite him into his house.

  "Mr. Wang, I came to see you today because..." Xiaoyuzi put everything on the table after entering the door and was about to tell Wang Yaozu something, but Wang Yaozu shook his head and pointed to the small courtyard, and the two walked out together. The house was left to Wu Ma and Shangguan Hui.

  "Go on, what's up? You haven't contacted me for half a month. I think there must be some important news that you're coming to find me."

  "Mr. Wang, yesterday I stole a wallet from a foreigner. The wallet was very big and had a letter inside it. The foreigner seemed to be in a hurry, running around looking for it everywhere, and even called the police, saying that he must find that letter. I think this should be very important, but the letter is written in a foreign language, so I couldn't understand it, therefore I came to look for you, Mr. Wang."

  Xiao Shanzi finished speaking and took out the letter. Xiao Shanzi seemed to be a little afraid, because he couldn't understand foreign languages. He could recognize a few ordinary characters, but he really didn't understand a single word of the foreign language. Although the foreigner was in a hurry, this did not mean that the letter would be useful to Wang Yaizu.

  Taking the letter handed over by Xiaoyanzi, Wang Yaizu's first glance saw the broken wax seal. Only relatively important letters from foreigners would use a wax seal, and after being sealed, there was still an obvious family crest. Turning over the front of the letter, Wang Yaizu clearly saw the name "Faberson" written in French.

  This is a letter to Consul Faber of the French Concession. Wang Ya-zu's relaxed expression immediately became focused, and he began to carefully read the contents of the letter. The more Wang Ya-zu read, the more cold sweat appeared on his forehead. This letter was really too important for him. Wang Ya-zu knew that if it weren't for Xiao Shanzi stealing the foreigner's wallet by chance, things would have been much more troublesome.

  "Xiao Shanzi, you've done a great job. Hand over the letter to me, and later you can have dinner with us, after dinner I'll give you the money."

  Wang Yaizu immediately put the letter back into his own pocket. Now is not the time to rush. If this letter is lost, the other party will not be able to find it and will not write again for the time being, because such an important matter has gone wrong, the other party will definitely become suspicious.

  Wang Yaoyu decided to wait until the afternoon to find Anthony, and then think of a way to persuade Anthony to take action at night! Gunsmoke Silent Volume 1 Empty Spirit Chapter 25 Stolen Letter
