When Fan Derui saw Mu Tian's photo in the newspaper that Qiao Shiyou pushed over, his heart skipped a beat and he took a sneak peek at Qiao Shiyou.
What's going on? I haven't been in Shanghai for a few days, and something like this happened?
Fan Derui's cousin passed away a few days ago, and he went to Chongming to attend the funeral and help with the funeral arrangements. As soon as he came back, he heard that Qiao Shiyou had been looking for him several times, so he rushed over immediately.
"What do you think is going on?" Qiao Shiyou asked calmly.
"This, this is too similar?"
"You won't come back to life, right?" Qiao Shiyou smiled sarcastically and looked into Fandrui's eyes.
"How is that possible? I watched Su Xiaoxiao perform the funeral for them, and the whole Peng County knew about it." Seeing that Qiao Shiyou was speechless, he added, "There was another boy who died that day." He took out the carving knife and handed it to him.
Qiao Shiyou, "That kid stabbed me with this carving knife, and that's why I shot him."
Qiao Shiyou took the carving knife, looked at it, and threw it on the table.
"It's been 20 years." Qiao Shiyou sighed as he looked out the window.
"Yes, the second master is very deliberate. If my subordinates make a mistake and let him live, I will be sorry for your cultivation." Fandrui agreed.
"It's not easy for you either. You've been looking around for so many years. It's hard work."
"It is my responsibility and honor to help the second master fulfill his long-cherished wish."
"I have to trouble you to pay more attention to this person. I'm afraid some people hope that he is still alive. You go ahead."
Fandrui left quietly.
Qiao Shiyou is Qiao Shikuan's cousin. He is in his forties and not yet married.
He was born into a well-to-do family in Jiaohe County, but when he was seven or eight years old, his biological mother fell ill and died, and his father remarried an old girl from a wealthy family. His stepmother did not like him very much and suffered a lot. After he became an adult, he followed Qiao Shikuan.
Doing business in medicinal materials. Ever since Qiao Shikuan switched to the department store business, the business of medicinal materials has been left to him.
Since I haven't gotten married yet, I have been living in Qiao Mansion, in the east wing of the second entrance to the third entrance of the courtyard.
Because he knew that Qiao Mansion was not his home, Qiao Shiyou rarely received guests here. Occasionally he did, and it was a guest who was familiar with his cousin Qiao Shikuan. Fan Derui's visit this time can be called "intrusive".
Geng Yibiao saw Fan Derui coming out of the east wing and felt that the man looked kind, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. When Fan Derui walked out of the door and Geng Yibiao saw his back, he was sure that he had seen him somewhere.
I just can't remember it.
Alas, I am old.
……………………
After leaving Qiao Mansion, Fandretti still couldn't let go of her heart in her throat.
The photo in the newspaper was clearly that kid. Then I found out his name was Mu Tian.
How did he show up in Shanghai? For what? Seeking revenge?
Fandrui knows that he can't deceive Qiao Shiyou in the end, so what should he do now?
He was just thinking about something, and when he raised his head, two men blocked his way.
"Friend, on which road?" Fandry asked, his soul almost leaving his body at that moment, trying his best to suppress his trembling.
"Taishan meeting." The visitor said coldly.
Fandry immediately understood what was going on.
There's no way to escape this time.
He was racking his brains to think of strategies.
A car parked quietly beside him.
Fandrui glanced at the car and then at the two people in front of him, "Two heroes, have you found the wrong person?"
"Aren't you Mr. Fan?"
"Yes, I am."
"That's right. Please get in the car. Nothing else. Our helmsman invites you to go and talk."
Fandry saw that the person opposite had a gun in his pocket, so he obediently opened the door and got in the car.
"Death or life!" Fandrui gritted his teeth and muttered in his heart.
The two of them were already sitting next to him.
The Taishan Club is no different from the past.
Only a few disciples occasionally walked through the front yard, and the sound of "ping pong" practicing kung fu could be heard from the back yard from time to time.
The main hall was depressing.
Kneeling in the hall was an old lady who looked to be sixty years old. Her face was sallow, and traces of tears she had just cried could be faintly seen on her face. Her hair was disheveled, and her face was full of exhaustion and despair.
"Pilmmaster, please help me. My two sons are alive and dead and their bodies are nowhere to be seen. How can I live as a lonely old woman, Captain." She said in a hoarse voice towards the man sitting behind the desk.
Wang Dabin cried.
Wang Dabin was probably completely bored by this time. He clenched his fist and put it on his forehead without saying a word.
When Fandrui was pushed in by two men, the old woman suddenly stopped talking and looked at him in surprise, and then looked at Wang Dabin who had raised his head and stared at Fandrui after a few cases.
"Mr. Fan." Wang Dabin called out in a gloomy tone as a greeting.
Upon hearing this, the old woman's eyes shone brightly, and she quickly knelt down to Fan Ruide, hugged his thigh, and looked at Fan Ruide with a murderous look in her eyes, "Mr. Fan..."
Fandry was startled and wanted to pull his legs out, but the old woman hugged him tighter.
"Mr. Fan, Mr. Fan, please help me, this lonely old woman like me can't survive, I can't survive." The old woman begged continuously.
Fandrui glanced at Wang Dabin.
"The old lady with big tiger and two oxen that you brought to Peng County." Wang Dabin said word by word.
"It's over now. The old woman in front of me is probably more difficult to deal with than Qiao Shiyou." Fan Derui's mind was whirling, should he hide it or lie it, or hide it and lie at the same time?
"Mr. Fan, you have to tell me something today. You took my two sons with you on a business trip. Where are they now? Are they dead or alive? You have to tell me, old woman."
The old woman's words became more and more firm the more she spoke.
"Auntie, get up and talk." Fandrui bowed to help the old woman up.
The old woman shook her shoulders and said, "If I don't get up, if you don't tell me their whereabouts today, I will die here!"
"Auntie, please get up and listen to me slowly."
"I don't, you say."
"He, they, threw themselves over there." Fandry pointed mysteriously to the northwest, looking helpless.
The old woman stared at Fan Derui in surprise. Even Wang Dabin stood up with a bang after a few cases, stared at Fan Derui for a long time, and then smiled mysteriously: I believe you are a ghost!
The old woman couldn't help but let go of her hands in surprise.
Fandrui took advantage of the situation and took two steps back to get rid of the old woman's entanglement, but felt something was wrong. He stepped forward and helped the old lady sit down on the side, took out the banknotes from his pocket and placed them in front of the old lady.
The old lady didn't even look at the money, she just stared at Fandrui, "They really went?"
"It's absolutely true. I bought their train tickets to Peking. This is the business trip expenses, food allowance, accommodation allowance and transportation allowance for the two of them. They asked me to bring it to your old man. When we get to the place, we will give it to the family.
Write a letter to say you are safe."
The old lady then looked at the money on the table. There were piles of money in a mess, but it looked like there were thousands of them. Tears in her eyes couldn't help but fall.
"Son!"
"They are filial, and the remuneration for this business trip has been left to you. It is now at my place and will be sent to you another day. I should have visited your old man as soon as I came back, but unfortunately my uncle died of illness and I only went to attend the funeral.
The matter has been delayed. It has made your old man worried and frightened. He really deserves death." Fandrui confessed with utmost sincerity.
Wang Dabin couldn't help but snorted coldly.
In that era, behind enemy lines, "over there" was a mysterious place. As long as it was mentioned, most people would remain silent. Therefore, when many mysterious events were mentioned, the conclusion was drawn, and people no longer mentioned it.
Wait for time to verify.
Although the old woman didn't quite believe that her son could do such a thing, she was sure of what he said, and Mr. Fan looked like a man of status in his suits and ties. He had already said that, and he still had so much money.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't believe it, because it is much better to have the whereabouts than to feel empty in her heart.
Thinking of this, she felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have wrinkled the pants of such a respectable person.
She rolled up the money, stuffed it into her arms, bowed deeply to Fan Derui and Wang Dabin, and walked out of the door without saying a word.
Fandrui watched the old woman go out and was stunned for a moment.
He didn't know why, but he felt a little sad in his heart.
"Follow me!" Wang Dabin said in a deep voice to the stunned Fan Derui.
Fandrui was startled and turned to look at Wang Dabin who was walking towards the back hall. He lowered his head and followed him.
The light in the back hall was much darker, and it was obviously a place where private matters were discussed.
Hu Ti, who was clearing the table, straightened up and glanced at the visitor.
"Helmsman."
Hu Ti said hello and stood aside silently with his hands down. When he looked at the people behind him, he was shocked.
