The First Volume: The Hollow Spirit Chapter 53: Not Walking Through the Front Door

  Qian Jiang, a name that truly lives up to its meaning. His parents had hoped their child would have plenty of money, and indeed Qian's earnings flowed like the Yangtze River, endless and abundant. According to an investigation one morning, Qian was an outsider who came to Shanghai and became an apprentice at Jiu Shu's general store. Due to his honest nature and kind treatment of customers, he caught the eye of Jiu Shu's boss and eventually married into the family. In the end, he became the boss of Jiu Shu's general store.

  The couple had a son and a daughter, both of whom were sent to the countryside three years ago. They told outsiders that Shanghai was too chaotic and not suitable for raising children, who would be better off in the countryside where they wouldn't learn bad habits. No one knows exactly which village they are in. The original owner of Ninth Uncle's grocery store also fell ill and died three years ago after a serious illness.

  There's a story about the original owner of Jiū Shū's grocery store. Three years ago, Shanghai was in chaos, and to suppress the Communist Party, the Green Gang, constabulary, police, and secret agents were all over the place, using the excuse of capturing Communists to extort and blackmail people everywhere. Tiě Tóu and Máo Zǐ were also in Shanghai at the time and made a pretty penny from it. During that great upheaval, Jiū Shū's grocery store was looted by the Green Gang and constabulary, and the owner was beaten up as well. He was old and got sick from anger and anxiety, and ended up bedridden. Due to the huge losses in the store, he couldn't afford a Western doctor and could only barely hold on with traditional Chinese medicine, but ultimately didn't pull through.

  An outsider, whose identity is already suspicious. Because of the death of his father-in-law, he has a grudge against the party and the country, and with strange excuses, he sent his children to the countryside, and even now that the situation is stable, he still hasn't brought them back, and there is also an adult hiding in the house. No matter how you analyze it, it's all very suspicious, this is the result of a whole day of investigation and analysis.

  Wang Yaoyu spent the whole day in the office, although the air was bad and stuffy, but it allowed Wang Yaoyu to rest well on the table for a while. Such a chaotic environment, coincidentally, made Wang Yaoyu feel a sense of peace, but this peace was only temporary.

  It wasn't a complete waste of time staying in the office all day. In the afternoon, Wang Yaowu received some good news from Shi Anguo. The head of Japanese espionage in Shanghai had committed seppuku due to consecutive failures and even poisoned his wife and daughter who came with him to China before he died. This information was told by Shi Anguo, obtained from within the Japanese spy organization. The intelligence network that the Japanese spy organization had painstakingly operated for many years in the French Concession of Shanghai suffered heavy losses, especially the informants who were finally bought and planted inside the consulate general were all gone.

  So many people have died, of course someone has to take responsibility. As for killing his own wife and daughter, he wanted to go down together, no need to stay in the world to suffer. The Japanese spies who knew about it seemed very sad, a rabbit dies and a fox grieves. However, since there are people who are sad, of course there are also people who are happy, Shi An'guo is happy, Wang Ya'zu is happy, Consul Faber of the French Concession is also happy, and so are others. In short, this news is indeed good news for Wang Ya'zu. At the same time, the consul of the Japanese consulate began to contact Faber, with the obvious intention of wanting to quickly settle this matter.

  There's still an hour before it gets dark, and Wang Yaowu finally walked out of the small building. The others in the stockade still had to work overtime, but Wang Yaowu could leave alone. Of course, the people in the stockade would have complaints about this, and Wang Yaowu was also clear about it. Just before leaving, he ordered enough wine and dishes for eighteen people at the largest restaurant nearby, including meat and vegetables, as well as some wine, to invite everyone to dinner. This way, the people in the stockade wouldn't have to eat the food sent by the Garrison Command again.

  Shanghai has many high-rise buildings, and the number of high-rise buildings in Shanghai is absolutely more than that in Nanjing. However, most of the high-rise buildings are for commercial use, and ordinary people's residential areas are all bungalows, at most only two-story buildings. Moreover, most of the houses are connected to each other, even two families share a wall, so it's not difficult for Wang Yaoyu who climbed up the wall to fly over the eaves.

  Yan Fuquan's residence was known to Wang Yaowu, it was a one-and-a-half-story house with an attic, not as good as Wang Yaowu's two-story house with an attic. Yan Fuquan couldn't afford a better house because of his habit of loving to gamble, sometimes he didn't even have money for food due to gambling.

  The last time the garrison headquarters leaked, it was a big deal, and the garrison headquarters is still struggling. Wang Yaoyu had thought of a way to contact Yan Song, although Yan Song temporarily stabilized Commander Xiong with tears, other deputy officers would definitely send someone to monitor Yan Song in order to clear their own suspicions, and Wang Yaoyu was not stupid enough to visit him directly at this time.

  The attic window was not locked, which gave Wang Yaowu great convenience and also showed how careless Yan Song usually was. If it were Wang Yaowu living here, the first thing he would do is seal the attic window shut. After entering the attic, Wang Yaowu easily went downstairs. What surprised him was that Yan Song, who was so good at spending money, had actually bought a genuine leather sofa for his home - a single-seat sofa. Wang Yaowu sat down and felt very comfortable, so he just sat there waiting for Yan Song to return. With the recent rumors being so intense, it was absolutely impossible for Yan Song to go gamble again.

  Sitting on the leather sofa was too comfortable, Wang Yaowu closed his eyes and took a nap. He was finally awakened by a burst of light, and Yan Song was in front of Wang Yaowu, pulling out a gun and pointing it at him with an extremely tense expression.

  "If you shoot me now, I'd really die unjustly. I was just sending money to my friend and resting on the couch for a bit, only to be shot dead like this. If the King of Hell asks who killed me after I'm dead, I wouldn't even know how to answer."

  Wang Yaizu was smiling and chatting, but his eyes were fixed on the gun in Yan Song's hand. Heaven knows whether Yan Song would fire the gun at this moment and kill him to show his loyalty to Commander Xiong. A desperate person can do anything.

  "My king, Vice Captain, why didn't you give me a heads up beforehand? If I had guests today, and they're from the Security Command Center, no matter how hard I try to explain, it would be impossible. The entire Security Command Center is now in an uproar, and I'm really regretful."

  Yan Song finally put the gun away, whoever returns home and opens the lock will be nervous when they find that everyone is at home. Deputy Yan's identity and situation are both more tense than ordinary people by a factor of ten, he almost fired his gun just now.

  "Now, at this time, how can I contact you. There are too many eyes around you, so I had to come like this. This one hundred silver yuan is what our Shi Gu Zhang gave you, his meaning should be very clear to you. However, Old Shi is also very cunning, which you have personally experienced before, so you don't need to worry. In short, now that you've boarded the pirate ship, you can only sit it out to the end. By the way, the Garrison Command is still in chaos, right?"

  Yan Song did not hesitate this time, and took the bank draft handed over by Wang Yaozu. Wang Yaozu smiled at this, continued to sit on the sofa, waiting for Yan Song to close the door, and sat down with him to chat.

  "You know, this sofa is only sat on when I'm feeling down. Even if I lost all my money and owed a huge debt, I wouldn't think of selling it. I didn't expect that the first time you came to my home, you'd sit on my precious sofa. Ya Zu, you really know how to enjoy yourself."

  Yan Song closed the door and didn't even bother to open the window. He now had at least five people watching him, twenty-four hours a day. Although he had convinced Commander Xiong, the other deputy officers wanted him to be a whistleblower.

  "After I'm done with this busy period, I'll also go buy a genuine leather sofa, but it has to be for two people. Sitting alone feels too small, and when one person occupies the whole thing, it really doesn't feel good. Deputy Chief Yan, can you really handle things at the Public Security Bureau?"

  Wang Yaizu stroked the genuine leather sofa and even deliberately moved his buttocks a few more times. Yan Song, who was unhappy, could only move over a stool to sit down on one side.

  "Commander Bear's side is temporarily fine, but *** all the other deputy officers have sent people to stare at me. They all want to quickly resolve the leak and continue investigating like this, everyone will be implicated, and some unspeakable ugly things may be uncovered. All the other deputy officers seem to have joined forces, regardless of whether I am the one who leaked the information or not, they just want to push me out and take on all the responsibility. Now I simply live in the Garrison Command Department, today I came back to fetch some clean clothes, also good luck for you, Yaozu."

  Yan Song stood up from the chair and started picking up clothes in the room. Now he could only live in the Garrison Command to have a chance to get through this, which was the stupidest but also the most effective way.

  "Why don't you change your strategy and let the deputy officer who was originally in charge of this matter take the fall? The most trusted deputy officer is also the one that everyone envies, and he's the thorn in everyone's side. Why don't you try to persuade the other deputy officers to use this opportunity to bring him down, which would be beneficial for everyone?"

  Wang Yaozu sat on the sofa, watching Yan Song pack his things. In order to keep a good man who was not easy to control, Wang Yaozu naturally had to help come up with ideas.

  As soon as Wang Yaoyu reminded him, Yan Song's hand stopped immediately. After thinking about it in his mind, he finally replied: "I thought of this before, it seems that we are on the same page. Yaoyu, wait for a while, I'll pack up and leave, those guys will follow me to leave, you can leave half an hour later."

  Wang Yaoyu nodded in agreement, saying nothing more, and continued to lie comfortably on the sofa. Smokeless Volcano First Volume Empty Spirit Chapter 53 Not Leaving by the Front Door
