Early in the morning on August 6th, a rickshaw brought little Su’s mother, who was wearing an oversized kimono.

"Then the money-losing goods have not come back?"

As soon as Xiao Su's mother entered the door, she yelled at Wei Ran who was holding a watering can, and then added, "Is your hand really broken?"

"No," Wei Ran pointed to the floor-to-ceiling window of the banquet hall on the second floor, "it fell from there."

"Take good care of yourself"

Xiao Su's mother said perfunctorily and asked again, "Has that damn girl Mei Xiang come back?"

"came back"

Wei Ran pointed upstairs, "I came back quite late last night. I guess I'm still not up yet."

"I'll go up myself"

After Xiao Su's mother finished speaking, she had already walked up the steps with wooden clogs. At the same time, she did not forget to mutter, "Is this book apartment not feng shui bad? Why is it so crippled?"

Resisting the urge to put the watering can on the head of this foul-mouthed old lady, Wei Ran dipped it into the fish tank in the corner and filled it with water, and then slowly lit a water bottle that he had just picked up from Chen in the morning.

I bought Qianmen brand cigarettes at a high price from Dogfish, and continued to water the flowers while listening to all kinds of rubbish that came out of Xiao Su’s mother’s loud voice.

Less than half an hour later, Xiao Su's mother happily walked out with a stack of brand new French currency in her hand, and said as she passed by Wei Ran, "My nephew, there is no need to send Canhua over to play the piano and sing songs this afternoon.

"

"Okay." Wei Ran nodded casually, but he didn't even look at Xiao Su's mother seriously.

Xiao Su's mother cursed something angrily, walked out of the yard with small steps, got back into the rickshaw and drove away.

Except that Tao Canhua didn't have to go out to work, there wasn't much difference between this day and the past.

At 5:30 in the afternoon, Wei Ran set up his camera in the basement of Xu Qing's apartment and took a group photo of everyone in the apartment, including the wounded.

After he put away the camera, Meixiang also went upstairs and changed into a kimono with the help of Qiushi, and also applied a thick layer of white powder on her face.

At 6:30 p.m., Mei Xiang got into the car with the help of Jasmine. When Jasmine, who was accompanying her, closed the door from the inside, Cao Duba and Wei Ran also got into the front and passenger cabs of the Japanese car.

"Do you have guns?" Mei Xiang asked as she opened the closed car curtains.

Hearing this, Cao Mute reached out and took out two pistols from the holster on his waist and shook them.

What surprised Wei Ran was that this time, in addition to the three-gun box, what the opponent held in his hand was a Ruger P08 pistol, which was definitely rare in China in this era!

However, it makes sense considering that Cao Mute was once a soldier under Marshal Zhang. After all, the Northeast King was the only one who was willing to spend money and equipped his men with such a batch of "Luoguo Luzi".

"What about you?" Mei Xiang asked immediately when Wei Ran didn't speak.

"Did not bring"

Wei Ran shook his broken arm and replied simply, "My arm is broken and I can't use it with a gun. Besides, aren't we going to the dance?"

Hearing this, Mei Xiang smiled and said, "If you don't bring it, then you don't bring it. Let's go."

"Don't worry, I can definitely do what I promised you."

Wei Ran confidently made his promise. He did not carry a gun, but in the food box of the metal book, there was not only the small PPK pistol and spare magazines, but also a bottle of food he had obtained from Dag.

The cyanide poison that Manali asked for, and the Molotov cocktails and smoke bombs that he personally made with his own money from Walker to purchase materials.

As for whether this thing can be used and who it can be used on, it will naturally depend on the situation.

"Miss, give me my gun..."

"No, I believe in my cousin." Mei Xiang waved her hand before Jasmine finished speaking, "Uncle Mute, let's go."

Hearing this, Cao Yaba immediately started the car and drove out of Xuqing Letter Apartment, and drove towards the Japanese Concession with Yang Ma, Tao Canhua and the little girl Qiushi watching behind him.

In the carriage, Wei Ran had no intention of thinking about his cousin, and lit a cigarette on his own. His carefree and slutty look and the undisguised pride on his eyebrows made him look like a pretty boy.

In the back row of the car, Meixiang, who was wearing a kimono, also lit a small Japanese-style cigarette with a golden mouth, gold pot and ivory stem, leaning against the half-open window and puffing on it, with the help of Jasmine.

He looked at the street scene outside, as if he was afraid that pedestrians and ordinary people wouldn't be able to see him.

Arriving downstairs at Zhongyuan Company in such a ostentatious manner, Wei Ran flicked his cigarette butt away at the same time. After pushing the door and getting out of the car, he helped the ladies in the back carriage open the door in a well-mannered manner.

They look like two different people on the road.

Under the escort of Wei Ran and Jasmine, Mei Xiang, who was dressed in Japanese style in a kimono, ignored the pointing fingers of the people around her and walked straight up the steps.

Before the three of them could enter, a milky-white car also stopped at the entrance of Zhongyuan Company. When the door opened, Mr. and Mrs. Sometani, who were also wearing kimonos, also walked out. Especially Yukio Sometani, who had a scar on his neck.

There is a leather chamber camera hanging on it.

"Miss Meixiang!"

Sometani Junko said hello in Japanese, and Meixiang, who heard the call, slowly turned around, pretended to be like a royal sister again, responded politely in Japanese, and bowed to each other with Sometani and his wife.

"This slutty bitch is the famous prostitute Mei Xiang, right?"

At the gate of Zhongyuan Company, a shirtless and barefoot rickshaw driver spit out thick phlegm and whispered contemptuously, "Look at her virtue, she is just like a special code devil."

"Come on"

Another rickshaw driver stretched his arms and said, "She's just a bitch after all. Whose kang is not warm? Do you think so?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the rickshaw drivers who agreed with him became even more unscrupulous.

"Leave them alone"

Meixiang whispered and stopped Jasmine, who was about to teach the rickshaw drivers a lesson, and glanced at Wei Ran, who seemed not to have heard the gossip at all. Then she switched back to Japanese and continued chatting with Someya and his wife at the door.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even Yukio Sometani took off the camera around his neck and asked Wei Ran to help him take pictures of the couple and Mei Xiang at the entrance of Zhongyuan Company.

Only then did we take a group photo.

Before the two groups of them could walk in, another car drove over. This time, stepping out of the car was Volker, the manager of a foreign bank, wearing a tuxedo.

"Miss Meixiang! What a coincidence, it turns out you are here to attend this banquet." Walker greeted Meixiang from a distance, and the two even hugged lightly.

When the two separated, Walker immediately asked, "Miss Meixiang, is Miss Andy here? I haven't been able to contact her these days."

"I'm afraid you can't contact her," Mei Xiang said with regret as she stood on the steps.

"What did you say?"

Walker was obviously also a drama star. He asked in Chinese with a panicked look, "Could it be...could she...she be..."

"Please don't get me wrong, Mr. Walker."

Mei Xiang quickly corrected her, "A little half a month ago, Andy heard that there was going to be a war, so she didn't come back with us. She had already gone to her grandma's house in Citonggang. I guess she might have arrived by this time."

“Fortunately so”

Walker breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and then asked, "Do you know when Miss Andy will come back?"

"I don't know that"

Mei Xiang spread her hands helplessly, "But when she went, she only asked Miss Gu and I to borrow two large yellow croakers each. I guess it won't take long. She will come back after she has spent all the money."

"If there is any news about Miss Andy, please inform me in time," Walker said with great sincerity.

"I have to ask Andy for permission first."

Before Mei Xiang finished speaking, the third car stopped. As the door opened, a fat man with a bald head and a sinister face walked out first.

This fat man in a suit wore as many thick gold rings as he had on his fingers, and a golden pocket watch chain hung on his chest.

The fat man just turned his head and glanced at it, and the rickshaw drivers around him who were talking happily just now immediately became quiet, and a few even pulled the rickshaws and hid in the distance.

"Dad, get out of the way, the door is blocked."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

The big fat man with a fierce look immediately smiled as he was urged from behind. At the same time, he moved his fat body out of the way with extra flexibility, allowing the girl in the carriage to get out.

Is it Guan Lingling? Wei Ran glanced at the girl in the dress and raised his eyebrows.

"That fat man is the father of the Guan siblings, and he is also a big traitor." Jasmine introduced in a low voice into Wei Ran's ear, "He specializes in doing things for the Japanese."

After Jasmine finished speaking, Guan Lingling had already urged her father to walk into Zhongyuan Company. However, neither the girl nor her father seemed to recognize Mei Xiang. Not only did they not say hello, they did not even look at her.

come over.

"Shall we go in too?" Yukio Sometani suggested.

"Let's go," Mei Xiang echoed, and walked into Zhongyuan Company with Jasmine carrying a cosmetic bag and Wei Ran empty-handed.

While riding the elevator all the way up, Meixiang just said something incoherently, "The three elevators in this building were all built by Mr. Zhu Qingheng. He is from China."

After saying that, she changed the topic to today's banquet and started chatting with Mr. Sometani and Walker.

Along the way to the fifth floor, Jasmine was stopped first and led to a small hall specially designed for "servants" to rest.

Wei Ran, on the other hand, perhaps because his gentle temperament frightened the gatekeeper, no one stopped him and he was able to follow him into the Golden Boat Dance Hall where there were already many people.

However, there is a second card here, and this time you can only swipe your face. Although Wei Ran took the name of Mei Xiang's cousin, he still led him to the banquet hall after a careful body search.

Rest in the corner. Obviously, although he can come in, he is not qualified to end the game.

However, this fulfilled his wish and he was able to observe the dance from the perspective of a bystander.

Contrary to what he expected, although there were many people at this dance, there were no people wearing Japanese military uniforms. At most, there were only men and women in kimonos.
