Bai Ruolan picked up a piece of meat for Xiaobao, and she would pretend to be invisible to see her husband having dinner.
She cooked three dishes today:
Shredded celery beef.
Fried bean sprouts with fried dough sticks.
Snow vegetable tofu.
When Bai Ruolan learned that Haozi was coming, he said he would stir-fry another dish. Cheng Qianfan said that it was not necessary. Haozi would bring some wine and food to eat.
Sure enough, Li Hao brought canned sardines and two bottles of canned fruit.
Two more dishes were added to the dining table.
There is also a large bowl of sea vegetable soup.
Cheng Qianfan had a normal complexion and seemed to have a good appetite.
Bai Ruolan felt a little relieved.
However, she frowned slightly, as if she had discovered something.
Cheng Qianfan only ate the dish in front of him, and no other dishes moved much.
At this moment, Cheng Qianfan put the snow vegetable and tofu in front of him in front of Xiaobao and took the canned fish over.
"Salty, eat less."
As he said that, he got up and wanted to serve the rice.
...
"I'll do it."
Bai Ruolan said happily, "How much more?"
"Half a bowl." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, turning his head to ask Li Hao, "Haozi, eat another bowl."
"Brother Fan, no need, I'm full." Li Hao said, "Before coming, I was having a drink with a few friends."
Cheng Qianfan stopped persuading him, and Haozi never told lies or made false statements in front of him.
Cheng Qianfan used sea vegetable soup to make rice, and quickly finished eating, wiping his mouth, "Ruolan, Haozi and I have something to do when we go out later, so you and Xiaobao rest early."
"I know." Bai Ruolan glanced at him, pressed the worry in her heart, nodded, "Come back early."
"I don't feel very comfortable in my stomach, so I'll come back and drink it." Cheng Qianfan said again.
"Okay." Bai Ruolan said happily, "It just so happens that there is still some pork in the kitchen. I cooked skin egg lean meat porridge, you like to drink it."
"Put more skin eggs." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"I know." Bai Ruolan knocked on Xiaobao's chopsticks who were still trying to steal canned fish, smiled and said.
"Listen to Sister Ruolan, do your homework after eating." Cheng Qianfan touched Xiaobao's little head, greeted Bai Ruolan, and was about to open the door and leave.
Bai Ruolan called him, came over with a scarf, and carefully helped him wear it.
"Come back early to have porridge."
"Yeah, I know." Cheng Qianfan's mouth raised a warm curve.
...
This winter in January 27, the 27th year of the Republic of China seemed particularly cold.
Cheng Qianfan turned around and left the house, his expression immediately became particularly cold.
"Brother Fan." Li Hao sat in the driver's seat and did not light the fire immediately.
"Driving, saying on the road."
"kindness."
The black car passed through the dark streets and penetrated the colorful roads.
"Tell me about your situation." Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette, handed it to Li Hao, and lit another cigarette himself, took a deep breath, put it in his hand, and looked out the window.
"I found out an important situation." Li Hao said, "I pretended to be a novice who wanted to play dog ​​running, so I found a guy who was familiar with Yiyuan dog running farm."
Li Hao said it very carefully. Cheng Qianfan would ask for more detailed details if he was planning to say something.
"Very good, you can think of using the inside story of buying dogs to find out the news, which is very good." Cheng Qianfan nodded. This is a safer way.
Li Hao is quite excited. A person like Acan is afraid that he will be poached by other colleagues, so he will not make any noise.
"Military Zou, you should refer to Zou Fengqi." Cheng Qianfan stretched out the cigarette roll out of the window and bounced the ashes, "Wang Dana, Wang Kangnian..."
He pondered, "These two people were getting together."
"Brother Fan, I asked. Wang Kangnian is not only good at treating cats and dogs, but is said to be good at training dogs and taking dogs."
Cheng Qianfan nodded. He naturally paid much attention to Wang Kangnian, the executioner who killed Lao Liao. The business of this guy’s Doug Clinic was quite prosperous. Many wealthy wives and ladies in Shanghai would bring cats and dogs to visit.
Wang Kangnian trains dogs and has a good dog-like style. It is not surprising that he is familiar with people in the dog-running field.
However, Zou Fengqi actually got this person together, which is interesting.
...
"The news you found is very valuable," said Cheng Qianfan.
"Brother Fan, Zou Fengqi plays with dog racing, this should be the reason why he chose to live in an apartment near the Yiyuan Dog Running Field." Li Hao said.
"It's not just about playing with dog running, this person has a lot of addiction." Cheng Qianfan said. This can be further inferred that Zou Fengqi is quite addicted to dog running.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have chosen to live in an apartment with ordinary conditions near Yiyuan in order to play with dogs.
"In addition, there is another point that can also explain why Zou Fengqi lives near Yiyuan in principle." Cheng Qianfan gave a lecture to Li Hao. "Wang Kangnian, this person has defected to the Japanese. Wang Kangnian is an old qualified agent of the Party Investigation Office. The Japanese arranged for him to come to contact Zou Fengqi in secret, and at the same time use the dog running as a cover. It can be said that he was unaware of it."
"So that's it." Li Hao nodded and said in admiration, "I have been thinking about the relationship between Wang Kangnian and Zou Fengqi, but I haven't thought of this yet."
"You are already thinking about this. If you give you some time, you can think of it." Cheng Qianfan said, thinking for a moment, he suddenly asked, "That Acan said that the dog named Larg can win alone, and Wang Kangnian fell in love with that dog."
"Yes, he said he was hiding in the playground to shit and heard Wang Kangnian recommend the dog to Zou Fengqi." Li Hao said, "However, I guess he wouldn't be shit and eavesdropping. It should be the news exposed by Zou Xuyuan or Wang Kangnian's subordinates."
Cheng Qianfan nodded, and he was very happy for Li Hao's progress. This kid now has quite analytical ability.
Zou Xuyuan and Wang Kangnian had a secret contact, and they were very likely to talk about the preparations for the Japanese and puppet regime in Shanghai, and they would be very cautious. The Acan said that he had hiding in the grass and shitting and eavesdropping, and the possibility of this situation occurring was extremely low.
If he took a step back, even if he really shitted and overheard, then he would definitely hear more than just about running dogs, but also other top secret matters. He would never dare to leak the news. A Can is a threshold spirit. He knows how confidential he has eavesdropped on. He knows what he can say and what he must not reveal.
Even the news about Lak's dog was very likely to be made up by A Can based on his dog-run experience. He just borrowed the fame of Shuai Shuai and Wang Dana to brag about it.
In any case, it is extremely important to know that Zou Fengqi and Wang Kangnian are in contact with the dog racing field.
...
"Which day is the dog racing?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Every Wednesday and Saturday nights," Li Hao said.
Today is Monday, January 13th.
The last dog race was yesterday, Saturday.
The next dog race is the day after tomorrow, Wednesday.
"I'll give you a task, as soon as possible. It's best to find out before tomorrow afternoon whether Zou Fengqi bought dog tickets the day before yesterday and how much is the bet? Did he go to the dog running field to watch dog running on site?"
"I understand." Li Hao threw the cigarette out of the window, rolled up the car window, and said.
...
"Brother Fan, do you want to park your car on the side of the road? There is no one around there, and it is relatively secluded." Li Hao asked.
"No, keep driving." Cheng Qianfan said, "Even if there is no one around and it is easy to observe, we cannot completely ensure that someone is approaching and will definitely be noticed by us in advance."
"Yes, Brother Fan, you are considerate." Li Hao nodded in conscience. As Brother Fan said, it was still driving the car, and it was safest to talk while moving.
"Tell me about the situation of the Japanese cavalry camp on Huade Road." Cheng Qianfan asked.
Although he was puzzled why Brother Fan suddenly asked about the situation of the Japanese cavalry camp on Huade Road, Li Hao would not ask too much because of his intimate relationship with Cheng Qianfan.
"Huade Road was stared at by Taozi's group. Although I have some information here, Taozi is the one who knows the specific situation best." Li Hao said.
