Fight again

When Officer Luo got the information from Bao's mother, he immediately reported to his superiors and informed the military to go to the abandoned warehouse to transport the munitions hidden by the Japanese devils, and directly drove a platoon of engineers, more than 30 people, a forklift, a truck crane, and two large trucks, divided them by two, and brought up mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and a truckload of shells and bullets and transported them back to the garrison headquarters.

At the same time, the graves of Junichi Watanabe and five Japanese criminals were smashed to prevent future troubles.

Unexpectedly, the military was overjoyed to receive so many weapons and ammunition from the Japanese, and he was rewarded by the police for his outstanding achievements, and his future promotion was in sight.

In fact, the credit belongs to Detective Bao Jinhua alone, in view of the fact that she is cloth, and she does not wear a flower feather on her head, she was specially rewarded with 10,000 US dollars, and the last time she assisted the police to solve the headless case, the police department gave her 1,000 US dollars in accordance with the prior commitment, plus the condolence money of the steamship company, and the benefit fee of Zhou Jinrong 10 gold bars, which were deposited in various banks.

Bao's mother discussed with her family: "I exchanged my life for all this money, and it was not easy to come by, except for part of it as a coffin, and the rest as an inheritance to be passed on to my children and grandchildren." Now that the situation is turbulent, Lao Chiang's regime will collapse sooner or later, and it is risky to keep money in the bank, let alone at home. What do you think? ”

Son Bao Yugang said: "If you go back to your mother, Gao Jian doesn't dare to be, it's better to concentrate and store a reliable bank!" ”

"That makes sense, which bank?"

Her daughter-in-law, Wu Huilian, continued: "Mother, in my opinion, it is Citibank on the Bund, which is opened by the Americans, and there are branches all over the world, so it will not fall lightly. If the sky changes and New China is founded, as long as there is a stub, you can get money anywhere, Brother Yugang, what do you think? "She was born in an opera troupe, and she has developed this habit since she was a child, and older than her is always called brother, and the same is true between husband and wife.

"Okay, that's it, I see! However, it is more safe to hide gold bars at home. Mother's activity funds and daily expenses can be received every month, so don't touch this money! ”

"Alright! I'll do it, and you all have to work, and you can't get out of it. At present, many people in the society are also using this brain, and I heard that bank deposits and withdrawals still have to wait in line. I'm idle anyway, I can do one thing a day, and I'll be done in three days! ”

"But mothers must pay attention to safety! Because your deeds were publicized too ostentatiously by the news media and newspapers, and even added oil and sauce, the prize money was increased by more than three or five times. There are lawbreakers in the dark who use their brains to rob money, and they have to be guarded against! ”

"Don't worry, I'll take the guy with me, three or two bad guys are not in my eyes!"

"Mother, it's better to be careful! Why don't I give you a bodyguard? "The daughter-in-law is a little worried.

"It's okay, it's okay! In broad daylight, the thieves don't have the guts! ”

The old lady said this in her mouth, and she was quite careful in her actions. specially put on makeup, a dress, a wide-brimmed hat with flowers, and a veil, looking like an old foreign woman. It's just that the small bag in the crook of the arm is a little bigger, short and long, and it doesn't look light.

So he first went to the "central bank" at Xiaodongmen, transferred out the 5,000 US dollars as a thank-you gift from the steamship company, and then asked a rickshaw to pull it under the door of the Citibank on the Bund, and walked in gracefully.

There were a lot of people in the business hall, and the sofas and chairs were full. Those who save money clenched their wallets one by one, anxious, and those who saved more money and withdrew less money. In this chaotic year, the rich people's lives are not going well, and they are simply asking for trouble.

The old lady also took a number plate and sat quietly to the side and waited.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he only felt that a woman was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and he almost laughed out loud when he thought about it again. She is the Watanabe Ryoko who is looking for her, and it really takes no effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to find them! But as a private detective, he doesn't have the right to arrest, so it would be nice if Officer Luo was there!

The only thing you can do now is to keep an eye on her, don't startle her, and if she is also here to deposit and withdraw money, you might as well keep an eye on her in the future. Detect where she is staying, and then notify the police station before it is too late.

After the female thief came in, she looked absent-minded, looked around, looked left and right, went up to the second floor and went around, and then went to the bathroom, busy, not at all money work, she disappeared from sight without paying attention.

Bao's mother regretted it, so she entangled her first and then took action. Suddenly realized a new idea, maybe she didn't mean to drink, she wanted to use the bank's brain, let's step on it first? Then it overthrew itself. Watanabe Tsui and Shigeru Ando were kidnapped from the hospital, but they were seriously injured and could not have participated in the venture. It seems unlikely that she and Ando Sheng would want to poke a big leak.

In the end, I shook my head and ruled it out, probably because I was nervous and thought too much.

Early the next morning, she first went to Zhonghui Bank near Pidgin to get a transfer check, and then went to Citibank on the Bund to pick up a number and wait.

There are more customers today than yesterday, and it can be called crowded, and all kinds of small bags are bulging with them, and the money is so big! A check from Mrs. Bao alone costs $10,000. So I sat in the corner and hugged my bag tightly, carefully in case of accidents.

It didn't take long for Ryoko Watanabe to reappear, along with Mori Ando. The male bandit jumped on the counter, and the female bandit jumped into the crowd. He is holding a ** in his hand, also called the Wang Ba box. First hit a shuttle into the sky, and the sound of "pop pop" gunfire was amazing, and the chandelier on the ceiling shattered into several petals in response, and smashed on the floor with a "poof".

Suddenly, someone screamed in fright, fell down with their heads in their hands, or hid behind the sofa, trembling and panicking, knowing that the robbers had robbed the bank.

The male bandit stood at the counter and threatened loudly: "Who's reckless move, dead, dead!" ”

When the two guards heard the sound, the bandits were sharp-eyed and quick-handed, and they shot two "horns", and the batons fell in a pool of blood before they could shoot. This time, who dares to resist?

The female bandit wore a hood, covered her face, showed only a pair of eyes, carried a travel bag, opened her mouth, and shouted fiercely: "Throw in the money in the handbag, the valuable things on the body, including gold rings, gold necklaces and other jewelry, whoever dares to hide it, will be killed!" As he spoke, he pointed his revolver in all directions.

Female bandits are as fierce as male bandits, who dares to disrespect? Extremely reluctant to hand it over, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. Only Bao's mother took the initiative to walk up to her and looked up and down, as if she was carefully recognizing people.

"Dead old woman, what do you want to do?" The masked robber pointed a gun at her head.

The noblewoman gently pushed the gun away from her hand, took out a check with a grin, and raised it in front of her eyes like a treasure: "I have come here to present it to you, the king!" As he spoke, he stuffed the check in her hand, very well-behaved.

The female bandit was so surprised that she blurted out, "10,000 US dollars!" Good, good! Thy good people are great! "I was so happy that I spoke all the Japanese Chinese.

"No, no, no, little good! The check is given to you, and you still have a fart! I'll go first, you grab slowly, don't be in a hurry! As he spoke, he walked out. When he walked to the door, he looked back and said to the robbers, "See you back!" "Extremely polite.

The people who were robbed in the bank, the salesman, the manager, the security guard, no one understood what was going on? As if a check is not money. It is unanimously agreed that she is either a trust or a psychopath!

The female robber probably received a huge amount of money from others, but she didn't stop her, watched her go slowly, and continued to rob.

The two bandits only robbed the rich people who came to the bank to deposit money, and did not touch the cash in the counter, first, to fear the Chinese authorities, and secondly, not to anger the Americans, which is also their cleverness.

After the robber ransacked the client, the two fled quickly with a whistle, and they were seen getting on a two-wheeled motorcycle parked in front of the bank.

Now the bank is lively! The victim cried and screamed, made a lot of noise, and kept asking the bank to settle the claim; Others severely reprimanded the manager for being cowardly, not daring to face the robbers, protecting customers, and being better than a neurotic old woman!

The Yankee manager was in a hurry to call an ambulance, and the two security guards fell in a pool of blood, saving people first, the second was to call the police, and the third was to solve the incident of the customer being robbed.

Besides, Bao's mother stopped a taxi at the intersection outside the gate, and hurried to Zhonghui Bank, found the manager, and took care of the salesperson on the counter, and so on, and so on.

The male and female bandits robbed a large amount of cash, gold, silver, and pearl necklaces, among which a check of 10,000 yuan was the most valuable. Dollars! If it is not a fiat currency circulating in the market, you must exchange it immediately!

Because he came out later than Bao's mother, the second was not familiar with the road, and when Bao's mother laid out the net in the bank, the second bandit was late.

Ryoko Watanabe is dressed lightly, fresh and elegant, with a fashionable bag on her arm, and her appearance is full of loveliness.

Walking into the bank, while sitting and waiting, she pretended to take out a small mirror and take a look, gently patted the lead powder, and slowly applied the lipstick, in fact, she was observing the movement, Bao's mother hurriedly turned her back, so that Liangzi would not notice her deposit.

When it was her turn, she walked to the counter and handed the female saleswoman a piece of paper: "Miss, please change the check into cash, I have something urgent to use!" ”

"I'm sorry, according to the rules of the bank, to withdraw a large amount of cash, you need to bring a valid certificate in person before we can serve you, please show it!"

The woman glared: "What a rule!" My own money, free access to it, why do I have to do what you say? Payment! The voice rang out.

"Miss, this is the bank's unified rules and regulations, please don't embarrass us to work, and besides, you are not the holder of the money!"

"Why do you say I'm not the owner of the check?" She continued to deny it.

"What's your name?"

"Bao Jinhua!"

The manager walked over: "The detective Bao Mu Bao Jinhua on the sh beach is famous, the old woman in the sixtieth century, everyone knows, how old are you this year?" What is the intention of pretending to be her old man? ”

"His grandmother's! You don't cry when you don't see the coffin, do you? Give me the money, quick! She pulled out her gun at once and pointed it at the manager and the lady at the counter: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you!" ”

I didn't expect this flower-like girl to be so fierce, the salesman at the counter was stunned, at a loss, stopped what he was doing, looked at the manager, and the manager looked around, like a rescuer: "What about the old lady?" ”

"Here we are!" Bao Mu got up and came over with a smile: "Isn't it just to prove?" Yes, there is! Don't be angry, girl, put the gun down, it's not fun to go off and hurt someone, I'll give it to her, I'll give it to her! "While digging in the bag for proof.

Ryoko Watanabe didn't expect this robbed person to be so docile and take the initiative to cooperate, could she be a detective Bao Jinhua? Isn't that a bad old woman! How can it be ......

I haven't figured it out yet, but the proof is pulled out, a nunchuck! With lightning speed, it slammed into her right wrist with the gun, causing her to scream in pain, and her left hand supported her right hand, and the wound immediately swollen and fractured, and the pistol fell to the ground.

She was about to pick it up, but Bao Mu flew up and kicked it a few feet away, hit the wall, sat on the ground and held her wrist, scolding while scolding, looking left and right, waiting for Ando Sheng, who was answering outside, to save her.

The old lady picked up the gun and ordered the door to be closed immediately, because there was a bandit with a gun outside, and she was waiting for Officer Luo to bring someone.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of "ping pong", and a large group of police and patrols were arrested, and a pair of security guards from Citibank on the Bund died, alarming the police station and the patrol room, and joined forces to arrest the murderer, rushing in like a wolf. Regardless of the fact that Ryoko Watanabe broke one hand, he was still handcuffed and escorted to the prisoner car.

When she got into the car, Bao's mother smiled and said to her: "Silly girl, you were betrayed by that bullshit uncle, and he has long been gone." He killed the man, and you will take the tank; You have taken money and silver and you have taken it, and he spends it. In the end, you are the one who eats peanuts, and you lose a lot! ”

Liangzi was stunned for a moment, thinking about it, isn't this the reason! If he came to save her in time, he would not have been arrested, and he blurted out a little in his heart, "What do you mean by eating peanuts?" ”

One policeman laughed: "What a rookie!" It's a shot! Don't you understand that murder pays for life? ”

At this time, she knew that she was afraid, and shouted at Bao's mother for help, begging bitterly, saying that she was wrong and should not be an enemy of her grandmother. If you end up in prison, you may have to eat peanuts!

The old lady pointed to Officer Luo and said, "The person you are asking for is him, as long as you confess honestly, tell everything you know, and hide nothing, see if he can spare your life?" ”

Officer Luo scoffed: "Why do you Japanese, regardless of men, women, and children, do not do good things, but do bad things, I really don't know what kind of education you have received since childhood?" Did the banks grab it too? It was a head-killing business, and after death, not only did he fall into infamy, but even the eighteenth generation of his ancestors was disgraced! Thinking of people like you, there is one less good one in the world! "Ignore her again.

Later, she still ate peanuts.

Bao Mu Bank deposited and withdrawd, and caught the robbers on the spot in the business hall, and for a time it became the headline news of big newspapers, tabloids, morning newspapers and evening newspapers, and the newspaper boys who sold newspapers happily flew all over the streets and alleys: "Ah wants to see the Japanese Red Guy Bank robbing banknotes, Ah wants to see the detective Bao Mu catch robbers empty-handed!" "Pedestrians all pay a small amount of money to buy newspapers, and there are many people who buy them, and they have to queue up, which has become a big news in Shencheng.

There is a lot of public opinion in restaurants, teahouses, restaurants and cafes, and there is a lot of uproar. Even the radio station has repeatedly broadcasted it, and it is vividly depicted.

Bao's mother was so frightened that she hid in the villa and didn't dare to come out, because her son's law firm was crowded, and she had to go to court for big things, and she had nothing to do, in order to meet the gold medal detective.

The garden of the small western-style building where the girl lives is crowded with men and women, and the flowers and plants are all squeezed out, all saying that they are here to ask Bao's mother to solve the case.

The old lady couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to meet everyone, and it was difficult to be warm! After saying that, my voice is hoarse, my arms are sore, and I am tired enough to choke at the end of the day.

It wasn't until the evening had just subsided, and things came again! Bao Yugang called and said that Officer Luo had arrived, and he had something important to report to her, so he should come back quickly.

The old lady thought to herself, let him catch the ready-made robbers, the credit that fell from the sky, and did not want him to be rewarded, what is there to repay? Since his son urged him to go back quickly, he had to call a tricycle with the girl.

This time, she was not allowed to participate in the arms and bank cases, and her mouth was so pouting that she could hang oil bottles, so she had to go back with her to see what new cases there were? Doggett trotted all the way back to his home on McGobloch Road with the car.

A police car stopped in front of the law office, and the greyhounds barked at the door several times to inform the owner of the house that he had returned.

Lawyer Bao opened the door, Officer Luo and Captain Liu hurriedly got up to greet the old lady, and when he saw that the girl was already pregnant, he even said congratulations, and solemnly took out a pair of "three-legged money" from the bag, which is a pair of small bracelets, a foot ring, sterling silver, is a congratulatory gift for the child's first birthday.

Bao Yugang specially took a backrest and a soft cushion, put it on the sofa, and asked the girl to sit down.

Wu Huilian served tea and got back to business.

Seeing Officer Luo's gloomy face, Bao Mu asked in surprise, "Did something happen?" ”

Officer Luo nodded: "What can't I hide from you, yesterday morning, I caught Ryoko Watanabe, and when you left, you used a discordant plan, pointing out that An Tengsheng left her alone, and fled with cash and gold jewelry by herself, she was shot to death, and her mentality was naturally unbalanced." Sure enough, when she returned to the bureau, she didn't interrogate much, so she explained truthfully. ”

Her brother Watanabe Tsui and her uncle Shigeru Asuto were kidnapped by an accomplice and hid in the area of Bridge No. 8 where they were treated in a private hospital. In view of the hasty escape of the brother and sister, the money is in the residence, and now the abandoned warehouse has been razed to the ground and has become impoverished, where is the medical expenses? Therefore, the idea of robbery was moved, and the gun was borrowed from them! ”

"Oh! If you don't have money, you will use your brains to grab it, and you will inherit the mantle of your ancestors! What do you do? ”

"This afternoon, 12 military police officers led by Captain Liu of the action team surrounded the houses near Bridge No. 8 and searched from house to house, but found nothing. When the team closed, he found that he had two fewer people. It's really a big joke, it's not easy to explain to the top and bottom, do you say bad luck or not? How could this happen? ”

The nanny shook her head: "It's not bad luck at all, the problem is that when you took action, you didn't join forces with the local bureau, and the result was that you lost your wife and broke your army!" ”

"Does it matter?"

"Of course it is! Bridge No. 8 is located to the east of Shippo, separated by a river, and was once a stronghold of Japanese devils. Ordinary people cross the bridge during the day to check, and it is strictly forbidden to cross the border with grain, especially rice. ”

So, at night, there were poor people who were forced to live and smuggle rice across the river to make a living, which the Japanese called "hairy monkeys". When you get to the river, you can sell it for a good price. If you are caught by the devil, the rice will be confiscated, and the person who carries the rice will be thrown away. “

"Why don't you kill? If you kill it, no one will dare to carry it anymore! A bag of rice is 156 pounds, carrying it on your shoulders for a long distance, and you have to avoid the devil's checkpoint at night. ”

"There are many foreign shops and rice shops run by Orientals on this side of the river, and confiscated rice is sold here, squeezing the blood and sweat of the Chinese."

"After the surrender, there are still traces of the Japanese, can they be less likely to cause trouble and destruction? And you just rely on the little clue that Ryoko Watanabe, the female thief, confessed to arrest people, aren't you scratching the itch through your boots? It can be said that "you can't enter the door"! ”

The analysis is reasonable, and everyone admires it. Captain Liu said respectfully: "What does the old man think we should do now?" ”

"It's simple, exchange prisoners! The innocent disappearance of two military police officers should be related to them! ”

"Yes, I also thought that they had secretly taken it away, so how could I exchange it?" Officer Law has been preoccupied.

"This is a very technical and artistic operation, but fortunately we have big mouths, they have small mouths, and with the police behind them, the odds are much better. We can use the detained Yoshiko Watanabe as bait to catch them all. Come on, let's do a good job of accounting! ”

So, several heads under the lamp collided and plotted a plan of action.

The next day, Officer Luo specially went to the Qibao Branch as a member of the General Bureau to coordinate and assign tasks; Bao Mu went to the "Yuhua Mi" on the west side of Bridge No. 8 to meet with Boss Zheng to understand the situation and get ready.

At the east end of Bridge No. 8 there is a turret, erected at a four-way intersection, next to the river. There used to be a guard post for Japanese soldiers, but now it has become a small local police station, and the low gate allows only one person to enter and exit.

Someone cleaned it early this morning, and there was a tweeter on the roof, I don't know what to do?

After a while, a dark green iron-clad prisoner car drove up, and stopped at the door of a small hospital diagonally opposite the watchtower, and several policemen came down, two of whom climbed onto the roof of the car, holding an iron horn in their hands, and one of them was the director of the local police station, because he had a few white pockmarks on his face, so everyone knew him, and they didn't understand what tricks he came here to play today.

At this time, the microphone on the watchtower rang, reading aloud the big news in the newspaper a few days ago, which was the robbery and murder case that happened at Citibank on the Bund. The gunman is Mori Ando, and the robber is Ryoko Watanabe.

The second news was the news that happened on the same day at Zhonghui Bank, where the robber was arrested, and the accomplice fled with his own money, and this person was also the maternal uncle of the female criminal.

Passers-by watched the crowd of people, and the second monk was puzzled, what is the connection between these two cases and this place? Isn't it full of food and support to publicize it with great fanfare?

The loudspeaker broadcast again: the robber named Ryoko Watanabe followed his brother Watanabe Tsui and two uncles in an attempted arson, and the three male criminals escaped, and only she was captured and shot in the next day. His brother and an uncle were recuperating in this small hospital.

This broadcast, like a wildfire in the wasteland, burned the hay as much as it wanted, and the crowd seemed to explode into a pot, scolding and swearing, and the crowd was full of voices, unanimously appealing to Brother Ando and Watanabe Tsui.

"How did the three big men escape from danger, enjoy themselves with stolen money, and bring disaster to a little girl?"

"What kind of bullshit brother do you tell her to come out and hide inside as a turtle with a shrunken head, is it still a person?"

Director Ma jumped up and down on the roof of the prisoner's car, and said: "Brother, what do you think this Oriental man is?" ”

A policeman on the side cheered "Brute!" ”

"The beast also knows how to protect the calf, how can he turn a blind eye and be indifferent?"

"That means he's not even a brute!"

"What's worse than a brute?"

"Duck droppings are the smelliest of the most!"

"Oh! No wonder SH people have a slang saying called "duck poop stinks"! ”

"Yes Luo, the world's most stinky!"

The two of them were like selling dog skin plasters, boasting and praising them, doing their best to slander and abuse, and the people below laughed.

Director Ma said again: "Brother, that duck stinks and pretends not to hear it, what should I do?" ”

"There's a way, take his sister out!"

"Okay, pull it out!"

"Pull it out!"

The guy kicked the roof of the car with his foot, and only to hear a "click" sound, and the small barbed wire window of the prisoner car opened, revealing the head of a female baby. Erdaomao's hair, long bangs on his forehead covering his head, a pair of big eyes flashing with a pleading gaze, and shouting loudly: "Brother, help me!" ”

"Don't shout!" The wolf-like prison guards closed the bars again.

This time, the people who stood and watched were angry, and shouted and roared: "Duck poop stinks, come out!" Change your sister, and if you don't come out, we'll rush in and get you out! "The tide of public anger is as high as a wave!

Sure enough, a crack opened in the window on the second floor, revealing half of his head: "Hey, Zhina! Let's make a deal, let my sister go, let's release the captured policemen, two for one, or not? You don't suffer! ”

The matter is very important, Director Ma didn't seem to dare to agree rashly, and shouted at the watchtower: "Report, do you want to change it?" ”

The microphone was categorical: "Change! Saving lives first! ”

Then it sounded again: "Ladies and gentlemen, the officers of the police station were ordered to carry out their mission here yesterday to search for the murderers, and they were captured by their agency, and now they are changing their horses!" ”

"Ahh How bold is Little Japan? Dare to kidnap the police, it's really a crime that deserves death, you can't just take them so cheap! There was a lot of talk.

"Is this a den of tigers and wolves? Fuck it, serve it, burn it! The masses were filled with righteous indignation.

The small door of the hospital opened, and two police officers with big ties were pushed out, followed by Tsui and two thugs with bandages on their upper bodies.

As soon as the back door of the police car opened, a pair of legs wearing leather shoes came down first, and then a pregnant woman with a big belly appeared!

It's really "a squeeze of eyes, ducks become old hens!" Originally, she showed a face, and everyone thought she was Ryoko Watanabe, but she couldn't think of a trick and changed people.

Tsui was also stunned: "You are ......"

"What, forgot? I haven't forgotten! You came to my house for no reason and set fire to it, and was seriously injured by my mother, and you still didn't honestly change your mind and become a new person. continues to seek money and kill people to sabotage, it is really a ghost who does not know death on the platform of Wangxiang! ”

Only then did Tsui remember that it was she who covered her ankle with a nine-section whip, and she was beaten by the old woman and almost died. Hatred is full of hatred, evil is born to the side of the guts, and rushes towards it like a life. The weapon in the girl's hand pointed: "You are looking for death, you can't blame me!" ”

Just as he was about to do it, the microphone rang again: "Girl, stand down!" Officer Luo, it's time for you to make a move."

Suddenly, the sirens sounded, and the police cars ambushed nearby drove one after another, and dozens of heavily armed military police crashed open the hospital gate, rushed in to arrest Tsui and Ando Sheng, but in the blink of an eye, the chicken turned into a duck again, and the two fled again.

Think it's impossible! Everyone saw Tsui enter the hospital, why did he disappear all of a sudden?

The loudspeaker shouted clearly: "Captain Liu, please lead a part of the people to surround the "Yamato Rice Walk" next door to the hospital, see one catch one, see two catch a pair, regardless of men, women and children, don't be soft!" Officer Luo, please carefully search for suspicious places in the hospital, there must be a secret passage leading to Mixing! ”

The police led by Officer Luo and Director Ma surrounded the hospital, and apart from accusing a few doctors and nurses, they found nothing, and they couldn't find the secret passage.

The military police of the General Administration led by Captain Liu tied up all but the two bosses in the rice shop, and there were more than a dozen family members alone. What's next? I had to ask the commander-in-chief of the watchtower again - Detective Bao Mu.

The old lady smiled indifferently: "The murderers have all appeared, should they be arrested or executed, you can do it, you don't need me to say more." If you have a few family members of the rice store in your hand, you can use the Huairou policy to open the gap, and generally there will be no big problems, and my mother and daughter will not be miserable! Oh yes! Thanks to this Boss Zheng for providing a lot of clues, thank you! ”

"Don't dare to be, it should be, it should be!" He was gone too.

The mother and daughter returned home and told the whole process, everyone was happy, but one was extremely dissatisfied, that is, the grey dog Doggett, who did not take it with him, jumped up and down, barked wildly, like a nerve, and the whole family was disturbed by it.

The old lady understood that this was done on purpose to show her, she was not angry, she talked to it seriously, and pushed her heart with dog hair: "This time, someone wants to pretend to be a good son and lure Tsui to show up, she is the only one, you can't; Although you can find the hiding place of the thief when you come out, that's not our job, and you can do everything instead of that? Leave it for them to get paid, eat and drink spicy food, aren't we stupid! You say, don't you? Be good, don't make a fuss, go out with Dabao, and reward you at night, go, go! ”

Don't say it, Bao Mu's words really work, it will settle down, it's not noisy or noisy, isn't it? But she said that dogs are human and soft-spoken, who is not happy? Tell it well, yes!

That's the way it is, and if you don't believe it, you have to believe it.

That night, I got the news that Watanabe Tsui had been arrested, several rice shop owners were locked in Tilanqiao, and Brother Ando had fled.

Before the old lady got up the next day, Bao Yugang came over to say goodbye, and said by the way: "Mother, there is your call, can you answer it?" ”

"Who called so early? Really! ”

"It's the Englishman Aunt Nina, who said there was something important."

"Pick it up! Ask her to wait and say I'll be right away. I helped a lot last time I saved the girl, and I can't stop driving! ”

So he took the microphone and couldn't even eat breakfast. Instead, she ordered the dog to be fed and to solve the case together.

As soon as a person and a dog came out of the alley, they listened to a few children dancing and singing children's songs in the local language of Shencheng: "戆大 (念度) 戆大, behind the trapped grave mountain, thatched firewood as a quilt, pumpkin as a pillow!" ”

As we all know, pumpkin is an ingredient for people to eat, but the fool uses it as a pillow, she is still childlike, she thinks it is so funny, not only remembers, but also repeats it several times, and then laughs.

A tricycle was called at the intersection, she sat halfway, Doggett squatted on her right leg, the big dog weighed sixty or seventy pounds, not much lighter than a person, and it was not a good idea to pedal a tricycle.

When I arrived at the destination, I saw a police car parked in front of a small Western-style house, and a cordon was set up around it, prohibiting idlers and miscellaneous people from entering, and several policemen and detectives were performing official duties.

Seeing her coming, he hurriedly greeted: "Yo, isn't this Detective Bao's mother?" What is the wind that blows you? "It's really the reputation of the shadow man of the tree, and no one doesn't know her.

Nina came out of the house when she heard the sound, and when she saw her, she seemed to see the life-saving king Bodhisattva: "Sister Bao, it's good that you're here." Yes! Doggett is here too! ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Why did you start doing this too?" ”

"There is an old Chinese saying that "those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black", I, I have had more contact with you, and I both admired and envied, so I became a member of the jury in the concession, and I especially love to investigate the scene of the murder and look for clues to solve the case. No, when I heard that there was a death here, I came immediately! ”

"It's a good thing to dare to be affectionate, why did you bring me here?"

"I'll tell you the truth, the investigation has encountered a bottleneck, and it can be said that the investigation can't go on, and I can't start it, I want to hear your opinion! Please take a look inside and see it live! ”

The smell of cooked food was coming from the kitchen, and there were people crying quietly.

Two detectives and a medical examiner are examining the body. They often meet when solving crimes, know each other, and greet each other warmly.

The cause of death was that she went out of the bathroom door after taking a shower in the morning, due to the dampness on the ground, the soles of her feet slipped on, and the back of her head hit the marble floor tiles, causing massive bleeding inside and outside the skull.

If it is murder, what about the murder weapon? Where is the incriminating evidence? Who is the murderer? What was the motive for the crime? A series of question marks that cannot be answered, can be counted as accidental sudden death.

Bao Mu shook her head: "It doesn't make sense! Nina, what do you think? ”

"I'm inclined to murder premeditatedly, just by gut feeling, without any reason, it's tantamount to talking about it." The other three also had their eyes fixed on her.

"Please turn the body over, I need to look at the wound before I can draw conclusions!"

She peeled off the bruised hair at the back of her head, carefully examined the wound with a magnifying glass, and nodded frequently. Then he instructed Doggett to sniff the blood-stained floor, and then made a gesture that only the two of them understood, and the dog sniffed and sniffed all over the house, and then searched all the rooms upstairs, even the attic, but found nothing.

This guy was full of spirit, and he was not reconciled, so he ran out of the house and ran into the garden.

After a while, I heard its "woo-hoo" call, and it made a discovery!

The garden is not big, planted with the owner's favorite golden osmanthus, orchids, peonies, and more than a dozen pots of chrysanthemums of various colors, which looks vibrant and full of autumn.

There was a garbage can at the base of the courtyard wall, which had been knocked over by a dog, barking at half a pumpkin. It also knows that this is evidence, neither with its claws nor with its mouth, and abides by the rules of on-site investigation, absolutely!

Mother Bao put on her gloves and carefully picked up a small half pumpkin, the size of a baby's head. While observing carefully, he said to himself with a smile: "Although it has been washed with water, but under the heavy blow, the skin of the melon is damaged on the outside, and the blood will go in, no matter how you wash it, it will not help, Nina, hurry up and take it for testing, compare it with the blood sample of the deceased, and the conclusion will come out soon!" ”

The four of them were dumbfounded, and Inspector Tom, who was the leader, could hardly believe it: "How could this be...... So, murder! The murder weapon is a pumpkin, which is incredible! ”

"There's nothing strange about it, it can still be used as a pillow!"

"Ahh Who uses it as a pillow? I've never heard of it. The four of them spoke in unison.

Bao's mother remembered that when she first went out in the morning, she heard the children's songs sung by the children at the entrance of the alley, and she couldn't help but associate it with the case. Although the wind and horses are not related, the inspiration from them cannot be ignored!

She summed it up in her own heart: detectives investigate the scene, just like a writer engages in creation, the original life is higher than life, and this truth is applicable everywhere!

Someone asked, "Can this pumpkin head kill someone?" ”

"Of course, there are more than half of them!"

"Where?"

Bao Mu smiled: "Don't you smell the fragrance?" It's boiling in a pot! ”

Only then did everyone notice that the smell of cooked food wafting from the kitchen turned out to be the other half of the murder weapon!

Seeing that they were a little skeptical, Bao Mu said: "Judging from the wounds of the deceased, it can be judged that he killed him, generally speaking, when he falls to the ground, the most protruding part of the back of his head hits the ground, and it will not be in the upper position, and the possibility of dying on the spot is not too great." It's a different story to slam with a physical object! ”

Detective Tom said: "I also took this into consideration, but I didn't expect the murder weapon to be a pumpkin, it is indeed a powerful detective, I can't!" "He's very frank and honest.

"One more point is that the old Englishwoman did not die at the door of the bathroom, but somewhere else, and was dragged here after her death. It's just that the blood stains and drag marks on the ground have been removed by the murderer. After that, I took off my clothes and changed into a yukata, causing the illusion of accidentally slipping into the marble slab and dying accidentally! ”

"How do you see that?"

The reason is that since the deceased had the habit of bathing in the morning, it shows that she loves cleanliness and pays attention to personal hygiene. Such an old girl, when she wears clothes, leaves her long hair in the collar and does not take it out, it is contrary to common sense, isn't it a big flaw! ”

"Yes! Even ordinary people are not like this. "Detective Detective, a novice, a medical examiner, no one noticed this detail. At the same time, I have to admire this old lady's strength, and the title of detective is well deserved.

At this point, the truth is revealed. The person who boiled the pumpkin is the murderer!

Bao Mu said: "Now you can interrogate her, what is the motive for the crime?" ”

Nina said quickly: "Get out of here, don't cry cat and mouse in that pretend!" Tell me, what's your name? Where are the people? What is the relationship with the deceased? ”

What came out was a middle-aged woman, and she looked good. She walked slowly to her, suddenly turned around sharply, stuck to Nina's back, grabbed her arm with one hand, and put a dagger dangling in the other hand around her neck, and said fiercely: "Old woman, what kind of bullshit detective are you?" Since you have seen through it, let's split up and go our separate ways. Stand back! Do you hear that? Or I'll kill her! "The two detectives and a forensic doctor did not dare to step forward, for fear of accidentally injuring Nina.

Only Bao Mu put her hands behind her back, looking lame, and slowly: "This situation is called "see you with a poor dagger"! Why bother! In fact, you are just an accomplice, and someone else killed the old lady. As long as you cooperate with the police and confess, it will not be a capital crime. You're going to kill yourself! ”

"Humph! Not necessarily! "She seems to have no fear.

"Then look who's behind you?" She looked back and saw Doggett opening his teeth and dancing claws and preparing for a sneak attack, and was stunned, the nanny's nunchucks made a decisive move, and the tip of the stick hit the dagger. The fierce dog pounced, opened its mouth and bit it, and suddenly the blood on her shoulder flowed straight down, and she cried in pain.

Detective Tom asked Nina with concern, "Nothing, right?" I see that you are not nervous at all, so I will not pull out the gun, it is not beautiful to be injured by mistake! ”

"There was Detective Bao's mother present, and she winked at me again, and I had no fear in my heart. Do you think the old lady only talks about it? Awesome! Only this idiot doesn't know the height of the sky, and he dares to use a knife and a gun to find death! Looking back, he slapped the murderer, handcuffed her, and let her be wounded and bled while interrogated as usual.

Detective Tom asked, "Now be honest!" Say, name, nationality? ”

"Amiyo, Korean!"

"Where's your accomplice?"

"I killed the person, there is no one else, if you want to kill, you have to scrape and listen to the respect!"

Bao Mu interjected: "It's up to you? Less gold on your face! A pumpkin costs a person's life, and there are no hundreds of catties of strength in his hands, don't think! And I also know that the killer is either a melon dealer or a melon grower. "Agasi hen hen to not yo"! ”

She was speechless, her eyes rolling, not knowing what the latter sentence meant.

This is a very ordinary Korean sentence, and the girls are very happy to hear it, but you are indifferent, and you really don't admit yourself! You lie, it's not Korean at all, it's an out-and-out Japanese devil, like a fake. I also know: あなた名前は美yoko Andoで, ご主人は安藤さんです, いいでしょうか. (Your name is Miyoko Ando, and your husband is Ando-kun, right.) ）”

She was dumbfounded, thinking to herself, how could the old woman know everything? panicked, and simply silent.

"Well, since you don't want to say it, bring it back to the patrol room for strict interrogation, I'm not afraid that you won't speak!" Detective Tom has a long hair tune.

The forensic doctor saw that her back shoulder was still oozing blood, and he couldn't bear it: "Slow, let me bandage her first, I'm going to faint if I bleed too much!" ”

"You don't need to be hypocritical, Miss Ben doesn't care!"

"Ouch, kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, don't appreciate it! It's okay, the detective went back and brought her some meat, what do you have there? The old lady winked at Tom.

"Conventional "tiger chairs" and "chili water", there are always tortures. Old man, please rest assured, don't be afraid that she won't recruit! ”

"Dream less! The Imperial Army of Japan dared to disembowel, and he didn't care about this little meaning! "She's still so unruly.

"Lao Tang, there is a "man is afraid of jumping and officials and women are afraid of ordering beans" in the ancient Chinese criminal law, I will teach you a method, go to the sand turning factory to get some iron sand, Nina, I will teach you how to "order beans", so that she will become a black pockmark. I think she still dares to talk old! ”

Everyone has a love for beauty, regardless of nationality. What's more, it has become a **! Miyoko was scared of the three souls and seven spirits, trembling all over, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Don't, don't, I'll move, I'll move!" ”

Bao's mother's method was really bright, and the effect was immediate, and everyone looked at each other and smiled.

She was originally called Miyoko Kato, married Shigeru Ando, and changed her husband's surname according to Japanese rules. After Japan's surrender, she worked as a maid in the home of a lonely old woman and a British expatriate, and her husband worked as a melon farmer in the gate lane of Bridge No. 7.

Killing the old English lady is to occupy her small bungalow, keep it for yourself, and use it as a camp to make a living in Shencheng, it's as simple as that.

The facts of the case were revealed to the world, and the detectives and forensic doctors of the concession thanked them again and again, and Bao's mother waved her hand again and again, saying that it was to make up for Nina's love, which should be done.

Miyoko was escorted away, and she is another ghost for the dead!

Next, the police teamed up with the patrol room to arrest the main culprit Shigeru Ando, can they be caught? It's not about detectives anymore.

A whole week passed after the pumpkin murder case, and on this day, Bao Mu and Doggett had just come to work, when they saw a small "Austin" parked in the yard, and Nina stood at the door to greet her, clasping her fists with both hands and bending down to salute: "Teacher, morning!" ”

The old lady was stunned: she has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, is there any new case that can't be done? Or Shigeru Ando didn't catch it and came to ask for help.

This matter is only half guessed correctly, today her teachers in front of and behind the house are long and short, and they are extremely attentive. At first, he called him by his name, but then he changed his mouth to call the eldest sister, and now he is called the teacher, this person is super annoying, there are too many flower heads, and there must be a mystery in it. Bao Mu didn't break it, and watched how she moved next.

Sure enough, after sitting in the living room, Nina turned against the guest and personally served tea to the old lady, and the girl laughed dryly on the side.

Bao Mu picked up the teacup and was about to drink it, when she saw three sandalwood olives floating in the tea, she suddenly understood. He smiled and asked, "This is a teacher's tea, do you want to worship me as a teacher?" ”

"What can't you hide from you, teacher, that's what the student wants!"

After talking to himself, he knelt on the ground and saluted on the spot, and he couldn't stop her.

First, Nina has always had a sense of justice and a kind heart, and secondly, Bao's mother saw that she was pious and studious, influenced by herself, and also fell in love with the detective industry.

"Nina, how old is this year? Does your husband know about this? ”

"Back to the teacher's words, the student is 51 years old this year. Thanks to your strong support from my husband, he said that he played mahjong and stud all day long with his fox friends in the same concession, and gambled that sooner or later he would get into trouble if he was red. It's better to follow good people to learn skills, do the right thing, and do things that are beneficial to the society and the people, my son and daughter all said good. ”

Bao Mu smiled and nodded.

Bao Yatou hurriedly said, "Get up, get up!" Mother accepted you, what are you doing on the ground? ”

It didn't take the old lady to answer, they had already officially met. Nina also understands the rules of "advanced teachers are big" on the rivers and lakes, and shouted at the girl and Doggett: "Little junior sister has seen senior sister and senior brother!" ”

"Return the courtesy, return the courtesy!" The girl is blessed.

"Wang, Wang, Wang!" Putting on airs.

"Hahahaha!" Several people laughed.

Li Zhong, who was watching the excitement on the sidelines, applauded repeatedly: "Now there is Nina to fill the girl's pit, so that she can save her heart." In the evening, I invited my eldest brother and sister-in-law to come, and I haven't seen my nephew and niece for a few days! ”

Nina was naturally elated, returned to the car and got a mink coat to honor her master. The gift was too valuable, and Bao's mother refused, so she held it above her head and didn't put it down, and the girl helped to say good things, so she had to accept it.

And then let's get down to business.

"I said Nina, you didn't follow Tom and them well, why do you want to change the door and vote for me?"

"Teacher, don't mention it, it's a waste of time to learn from them! Take this return to Bridge No. 7 to catch Shigeru Ando, for example, after tossing for several days, I didn't even catch a shadow, which is a waste of money and labor! ”

"Ahh How so? You tell me about it! ”

So Nina explained the failure as it was.

"What do you think?"

"The disciple thinks that you should use your brain more in everything, and you can't do it brutally; Besides, we are in the open, and the Japanese are in the dark, and they want to be brave and wise! You are known to be an expert, and your thinking and reasoning are all seamless. But it's too profound, it's not that your students can't get the personal transmission, so I'm like the Chinese say, "Sixty-year-old drummer - catch up with fashion, learn from you wholeheartedly!" ”

"Do you have to be my disciple to learn the real skills?"

"That's right, just take the incident of the other day, how do you know that Yasuyo is a pseudonym, and her real name is Miyoko Ando?

"Most Koreans have the surname Kim, the surname Park, and there are many with the surname Choi, and the surname Ahn has hardly heard of it. And because I have dealt with Brother Ando several times recently, I am quite impressed; Miyoko Ando's head and tail are exactly Anmiyo, and I was blinded by me! ”

"Even if it is Mongolian, it is well-founded, not accidental! And you debunked her just by saying a word of Korean, so amazing! Several detectives and medical examiners admired you very much, you are not only proficient in Japanese but also Korean, which is very human. Teacher, what does that mean? ”

"Ho-ho-ho, hahahaha!" This time, the girl laughed almost out of breath.

"That was a few years ago, our family was traveling on Jeju Island in South Korea, and Xiaowei, the daughter of Yugang's eldest brother, was smart and clever, and learned this Korean sentence from the tour guide. It means: Sister, you are so beautiful! Which Korean chick doesn't like to smile when she hears it? Therefore, the little girl "cheated" everywhere to eat candy. I have long been thrown out of the clouds, my mother still remembers, the critical moment came in handy! ”

"Shame, shame, there will be two sentences in total, and one sentence is "Ania three" - hello! After saying that, Bao Mu laughed heartily.

Nina was dumbfounded, and only muttered after a while: "There are not many words, the key is to kill people in one sentence!" ”

"Nina, you're not bad, summarize your speech, and get three points!"

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Li Zhong said: "You can boast about yourself! The four of them burst into laughter.

Doggett is known as "people come crazy", followed the coaxing, just learned to "slow down three steps", and took the dance steps by himself, which was decent and impressive.

After a burst of laughter, the old lady asked, "I guess Nina's visit is not just as simple as apprenticeship, right?" I'm afraid there is another meaning! ”

"The teacher is right, Inspector Tom and his colleagues in the concession used a lot of police force to arrest Shigeru Ando, but the result was in vain, and it was on the basis of your detection. Not only was his face gloomy, but he was also reprimanded by the peak. They are embarrassed to invite you out of the mountain again, saying that I have a big face, and begging me to say yes! ”

"I said! Why do you suddenly want to worship me as a teacher? There is such a thing in it! ”

"Mother, all the friends in the industry are happy and convinced of you, and entrusting your sister to beg you is also a last resort, so you can reluctantly help you. One is to solve the difficulties of others, and the other is to have multiple friends and multiple paths! "The girl probably received a lot of benefits from Nina, and tried her best to help her.

Bao's mother knew it in her heart, and she didn't break it, so she said: "This case seems to be a trivial matter, but in the area of Bridge No. 7, there are all kinds of people, and there are many Japanese ronins and expatriates, and it is common sense to protect each other." You go out to arrest people in broad daylight and blatantly, and the main culprit is not a plan to go as a plan, and hide far away. It's your turn to be arrested? ”

"What then?" The girl and Nina spoke in unison.

"There is a way! Do you remember when I said that the main culprit is either selling melons or planting melons? There is an excellent time now, and it just so happens that Shigeru Ando's wife, Miyoko, told him to plant pumpkins in Dazha, and made a plan to let him take the bait and throw himself into the net. However, it is not easy, and you have to ask someone to help. ”

"As for me, it's a big deal to break some money, do a charity, and accumulate virtue for my children and grandchildren." So he told the two students about his idea.

The girl and Nina smiled when they heard this, because they both had important tasks, and they prepared separately, and even the dog could use them.

The next night, it was drizzling and the first northwest wind of the year blew in late autumn, and the temperature dropped sharply, and there were few pedestrians on the road.

On the Maigao Baolu Road of Baxian Bridge, a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a raincoat and a rain hat wrapped tightly softly knocked on the door of "Bao Yugang Law Firm".

It was the young lady Wu Huilian who opened the door: "It's so late, you can find Lawyer Bao!" Do you have a phone appointment? He's not home, please come back tomorrow! ”

The person who came Chinese with a strong HB accent: "I didn't come to find Lawyer Bao, I came to find ...... Let me go in and talk, okay? ”

"You ......"

"Little junior sister has a bad memory, even I don't remember Luo!"

Wu Huilian heard strangers call her nickname, and immediately recognized it, and said excitedly: "You are Uncle Li......"

"Shh......h Lighten it! The visitor put his right index finger on his lips and whispered, "Take me to your mother-in-law!" ”

Where can she suppress it, she turned around and ran to the back room, shouting as she walked: "Mother, mother, Uncle Li is here!" Oh my God, it's just falling from the sky! ”

Bao's mother was talking to her grandson and granddaughter about solving the case, and when she saw her daughter-in-law running in in a hurry, she hurriedly stood up to greet the guests. Which gust of wind is blowing you? ”

"Sister Bao, hello wow!"

"Wow, wow, take off your raincoat, please sit down and serve tea!" Oops, you're a big man, and the dragon wants to kill us! If it weren't for the girl looking for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't have met yet, right? ”

"Yes, yes! The comrade at the liaison station at noon today said that a pregnant woman surnamed Bao came to me in the morning and said that she had something important. This point of contact is not open to the public, except for our comrades, only the chubby mother sued the girl. I know that she came on your instructions, and my daughter-in-law has difficulty moving, so I'll come! By the way, come and thank you in person, my chubby marriage has made you worry a lot! ”

"Say this, and you will see the outside! We are decades of old neighbors, as the saying goes, "distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors", and we are sons and daughters, so we don't need to be polite. No, I have a difficult matter right now that I want to ask you for help! ”

"Oh, please, I am duty-bound!"

"The newspaper reported that the Japanese robber An Tengmao brutally murdered an unarmed old British woman, set fire to my detective agency, and broke into the residences of Li Zhong and the girl at night, attempted to set fire, and committed many crimes, and is still at large. If he is not brought to justice, it will be unjustifiable in public or private! ”

"Well said! Your old man has repeatedly solved strange cases, caught many hidden Japanese enemy elements, and redressed the grievances of the vast number of ordinary people, even the overseas Chinese in the concession are also the objects of our united front and unity, and your contribution is indispensable! What do you want me to do? ”

"Isn't there a big flood of ah? In my personal name, I want to requisition a batch of pumpkins from Dazha Lane to help the victims, and at the same time capture An Tengmao alive by surprise, killing two birds with one stone. However, the road is far away, and there are several checkpoints to pass through from the national territory to the base area, and there are too many variables and difficulties, so I thought of you. Let's see if we can ......."

"That's a good thing! I thank you on behalf of the people who have been affected by the disaster. How much food is there? How do you plan to do that? ”

"It's about 100 tons. In the section from SH to NJ, my students, Englishmen, and foreigners from the Ministry of Industry (who owe me favors), came forward to negotiate with the police station, and they were escorted by the police. But after crossing the Yangtze River, north of Pukou is a guerrilla zone. I'm not sure if the alternation of the two sides or the transportation of the northern route will be able to safely reach the victims, so please strategize! ”

"It's not a matter of strategizing, it's okay to come up with a way and an idea. In this way, when the grain crosses the river, I am responsible for sending people to escort it to ensure that it is fully implemented in the hands of the victims. As for the person to undertake the handover, it is necessary to think well and balance both sides. We have a comrade...... I'll go back and arrange it and hear back to you tomorrow night, okay? ”

"Dare to be kind, you're bothered! By the way, that night, four Japanese devils sneaked into the garden of the small bungalow, did you call the police? ”

Li Zhong's father nodded: "I saw the news of your housewarming from the newspaper, I was surprised, this is a bold idea, to lure the snake out of the hole, wait for the rabbit, and catch it all." But if you don't get it right, it's the little couple who suffers - my son and daughter-in-law, who can't rest assured, so they protect it in secret. ”

"So you lit a flashlight?"

"That's right!"

"It's really an old cow protecting the calf, pity the hearts of parents all over the world!"

'We ** people also have seven emotions and six desires, and it is also human nature to have deep affection! ”

"Well said! How did it come quietly? ”

"I stopped when I heard the dog bark, and I knew that you had an ambush, so I quietly retreated!"

Hahahaha!

"Lao Li, do you want me to call your son and daughter-in-law and meet father and son?"

"No need, there are comrades outside to answer me, it's not good after a long time, so I'll leave here! Don't send it out, stay! ”

The next night, a note slipped into the crack of the door, and it said: Someone will contact you then.

The area around the No. 7 Bridge on the east side of Qibao is an expanse of farmland, with a small amount of fertile land, planting single-crop rice, a crop of wheat, and most of it is vegetable land. Especially in Dazha Lane, pumpkin has always been produced, and the locals call it "green-skinned pumpkin". It is long, shaped like a child's arm, firm and tight, and can be stir-fried and boiled, and the taste is good.

In addition to rice, wheat, sorghum, and potatoes, it is counted from the fields that fill the stomach, and the poor use it as rations all year round.

In the summer of this year, the Huai River in northern Anhui flooded, and the farmers did not harvest any grains, and countless people fled the famine to ask for food. It is not uncommon for charities and well-wishers to donate money and raise funds for disaster relief in the society.

The dirt road was dusty, several trucks drove directly to the township office of Dazha Lane, and a flag was erected on the front car, with the word "good" on each side, and there was a banner on both sides, with white characters on a yellow background, which read: "A large number of pumpkins are purchased for the people in the disaster relief area". The momentum is huge, swaggering through the market, only the gongs and drums are noisy.

The head of the township personally contacted, and the chief of each village mobilized every household to voluntarily come to sell melons, because this year's rain is moderate, there are few insect pests, and the pumpkin harvest is bumper, and it is difficult to sell!

I can't imagine that there are great good people who do good deeds, and buy unlimited pumpkins here, which is only one percent lower than the market price.

However, it is conditional, it must be the real name of the real account, and it must not be sold or impersonated, and the offender will refuse to accept it. I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

A few transport workers got down from the car, first set up a cloth canopy, and then brought down a table, which served as the account collection counter; Two chairs, a scale, a cash drawer.

The boss is a foreign woman of half a hundred, full of energy, with her hands on her waist, shouting five and six, and she is proud.

The bookkeeper is also a woman, with a veil on her face and a big belly, in charge of payments. Strangely enough, there was a dog coiled under her feet, lazy, prostrate on the ground and dozing.

Two men weighed melons, four loaded trucks, and several patrols stood guard to maintain order, all in an orderly manner.

Although the purchase price is 10% lower than that of retail, there is no limit to the purchase price. But don't want ripe melons, otherwise they will rot before they are transported to Huaibei!

The melon farmers are quite good at calculating, saving piecemeal, and paying cash immediately, without white slips or arrears, so the melon sales are very enthusiastic.

Shoulder-carrying, ship-loaded, crowded, hot, the scene is very spectacular.

First of all, there were local farmers with names and surnames and hukou, and then there were tenant farmers from outside, who did not have a hukou and no houses, and lived in a long shack, commonly known as "rolling dragons".

Among these people, all the bachelors are not only poor, but also many outlaws. The remnants of the Japanese devils are mixed in, renting other people's land to grow crops, secretly doing bad things, killing people and hiding inside, no matter how you catch them, it's not a needle in a haystack and ends in failure?

The purchase of pumpkins was smooth sailing, truckload after truck was carried away, bundles of money in the cash box were paid to all kinds of melon farmers, and by dusk, more than 100 tons were purchased.

Seeing that the sun is going down, the money in the cash box is about to run out, and the disaster relief project seems to be successfully completed.

At this moment, a melon farmer finally came, pulling a cart full of melons alone, uniform in size, only the thickness of his arm, green and oily, authentic "big gate to get pumpkins"!

Strangely, the melon farmer didn't know whether he was shy or afraid of seeing someone, so he covered half of his face with a big shabby straw hat and muttered, "Sell melons!" ”

What's even more strange is that the shepherd dog, who has been bowing his head and drowsy, suddenly came to his senses, got up with a bone, and pounced on the melon seller without asking thirty-seven twenty-one.

What a melon farmer! took off his straw hat to block it, and stabbed the fierce dog with a dagger in his hand. The pregnant woman attacked in time, the abacus in her hand smashed into the blade, and she shouted: "You finally showed up!" ”

The six foreigners who collected melons also pounced, pushed him to the ground with seven hands and feet, tied up four horses and hooves, and handcuffed 808 with his backhand, don't think about running away again!

The melon farmer shouted, "What do you want to do? Bullying me as a melon seller, is there no royal law! ”

Inspector Tom, who was dressed as a porter, squatted down and slapped him with a big slap: "I should ask you this sentence, innocently killing an unarmed old woman, where is your royal law?" ”

"Yes! You Japanese brute dare not admit it, you are wearing a human skin in vain! Nina flew up and kicked him in the waist.

"Ouch hey, it hurts me! Wronged! You're spewing blood! ”

"Rabbit cub, you're good at holding garlic! Don't you forget to set fire to my house! Do you know your aunt and grandmother? Dare to quibble! Doggett, go up! ”

As soon as the greyhound heard the owner's order and allowed it to bite, it did not rush up and bite indiscriminately. This trick is particularly smart, and the melon farmer was suddenly frightened and begged for mercy: "Don't bite, don't bite, the bite wound last time has just healed, I am willing to move, I am willing to move!" I'm An Tengmao, and that old foreign woman I stoned to death with a pumpkin! ”

The culprit confessed in person, was detained on the spot, and the pumpkin murder case was successfully solved.

If it is said that it is a play from beginning to end, it is performed exactly according to the script. The screenwriter and director are all Detective Bao's mother, and the foreigner detectives are all admired.

But a good deed is true, and the great good man is naturally also the detective Bao Mu.

Then the old lady and the girl and Doggett were in the same car, and went straight to the West Railway Station, with Nina as the driver. She wanted to see for herself how several truckloads of pumpkins were loaded onto the truck.

Eight stevedores loaded almost all the more than 100 tons of pumpkins onto the trucks, three and a half wagons. Leaving a place for the escort to live, three canvas beds, a few living utensils, this journey is hard enough.

Unexpectedly, it was the police who escorted the car, probably coerced by foreigners in the concession. Unexpectedly, the leader turned out to be Captain Liu of the action team! Bao Mu was taken aback, isn't this overkill, killing chickens with a knife?

What surprised her was that before driving, Captain Liu took his own fruit bag and staggered over: "Old lady, you are only allowed to take two plums to taste fresh, one more is not allowed, and one less is not good, understand?" ”

How do you know that Bao's mother was absent-minded, and answered the question: "Look, before the sun sets, the moon comes out!" "It's just a bull's head and a horse's mouth.

Captain Liu suddenly smiled: "That's good, that's good!" ”

The girl and Nina were dumbfounded, not knowing what dumb riddle the two were playing? I watched in amazement as the four wagons hung onto the train and rumbled away.

On the way back, the girl put her ear on Bao's mother and said, "Mother, my father-in-law said that the underground party would send someone here, why didn't you see it?" ”

Because this secret must not be known to Nina, the detective silently shoved the towel that wiped her sweat and the knife that cut the melon into her hand, and said nothing.

The girl looked confused and shook her head.

Bao Mu wrote in the palm of her hand: "The towel is "Mao" and "Jin", plus a "刂", and then asked softly, "What words?" ”

Although the girl is not very literate, she recognizes the word "Mao Jin Jiao-Liu", and her eyes are like copper bells: "You mean ......"

The old lady covered her mouth and nodded slightly.

The car arrived at Bao Yatou's house near the foreign grave mountain on Xiafei Road, and Nina went back.

Before entering the house, the girl couldn't wait to ask again, "How did you see it?" ”

"Silly girl, didn't you see Captain Liu invite me to eat plums? No more, no less, only two. Let me ask you, what is the last name of your parents-in-law? ”

"All surnamed Li! Oh, two plums, the implication is that he is in the same league as them, please rest assured! ”

"Yes Luo!"

"So, what do you mean by your last off-topic sentence?"

"Before the sun sets, it is daytime, and the coexistence of the sun and the moon is the word "Ming", which means to understand. Let him rest assured that I will never reveal the slightest news! You have to keep your mouth shut! ”

"Needless to say!"

The other three were also ecstatic when they found out, and the daughter-in-law said: "My mother got the help of Aunt Li last time, and this time it was Uncle Li's help, it seems that the relationship between my mother and ** is not trivial!" ”

Li Zhong said: "How about being a family? Unexpectedly, Captain Liu is also his own person, which will be of great benefit to the detective work in the future! ”

Bao Yugang said better: "It can also be said that my mother began to embark on the road of revolution!" ”

"It's still the eldest brother, Brother Yugang can see far away!" Li and Wu spoke in unison.

The old lady said: "This matter needs to be kept strictly secret, and it is better to lose your head than to show your bottom!" ”

"That's nature!"

Since then, Detective Bao Mu has this ally, like a fish in water, and she is free; Nina has also become a real student of Bao's mother, with an extra arm and a thriving career......

In view of the fact that the detective assisted the Concession Patrol House to investigate the ins and outs of the murder and caught the real murderer An Tengmao, he made great contributions and awarded a bonus to express his gratitude.

However, the old lady still remembered An Tengmao's sibling brother and the murderous demon An Tengsheng, and was determined to catch him, and the opportunity finally fell from the sky.
