Xiaomei couldn't see what was written on the note. But this was the first time she had seen such a secret letter, and she couldn't help but feel that she was making a fuss, especially when she saw Jing Yi not moving, just focusing on the paper. It seemed that she was no stranger to how to deal with such secret letters. It was this ...... that shocked her Xiaomei was inexplicably a little flustered.

Jingyi looked at her and whispered, "Cancel this afternoon's schedule for me." I need to go home. He"

"Did something happen?" Xiaomei looked at Jingyi, the piece of paper was folded by her and put back in the envelope, her hand was rarely a little trembling.

"Something is indeed happening." Jingyi got up and took off her doctor's robe. She thought for a moment and said, "Those little hairy heads, please take care of them." I'm afraid I'll have to come to the hospital tomorrow...... I hope to arrange for them to read in Bowen. Wait until I discuss this matter with General Xiao. Bowen was founded by him, and I don't know if it will be a problem to take in these children...... The cost is a small matter, but I am worried that the teachers will not be able to take care of so many students. ”

Xiaomei nodded and said, "Leave it to me." ”

"Please." Jingyi said, picking up her bag and leaving the office.

Xiaomei sent her out and explained to Bai Wei and asked her to call the driver to prepare the car.

Jingyi walked quickly, and when she got downstairs, the car was already waiting for her.

Master Chen waited for her instructions, and she whispered, "Go to the Hagrid Mansion." ”

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the raindrops hit the front windshield of the car, as if someone was splashing water vigorously...... Jingyi closed her eyes, and the sound in her ears was a tsunami of mountains and tsunamis, and it was wave after wave.

"Stop the car." Jingyi said when she saw the face of Liangyou Bookstore.

Master Chen immediately stopped the car and saw that she was about to get out of the car, which was very unexpected. Looking in the rearview mirror, the car that followed them was also parked not far away.

Jingyi didn't explain why she parked here, and only asked Master Chen to wait here for a while.

"Mr. Cheng! Mr. Cheng, let's wait...... At least let people follow. Master Chen was a little worried, but when he saw Jingyi drive the door down, he took an umbrella and went to the bookstore. There were also people in the car behind, but she waved her hand to stop them. He waited here with peace of mind - Mr. Cheng was by no means a reckless person......

Jingyi walked briskly up the steps.

The steps in front of the Liangyou Bookstore are a little high. The rain flowed down the steps, Jingyi stepped on it, the rain splashed on her calves, and she already felt a little chill all over her body, and now she felt even colder. When she pushed open the door and entered the bookstore, she was wrapped in the musty smell on her face, and she couldn't help but shiver.

Perhaps because of the rain, the huge bookstore was empty. Except for a few clerks who were napping at the counter or strolling under the bookshelves, there was not a single customer.

Jingyi put away the umbrella, put it in the umbrella bucket by the door, and stood on the footmat, quietly waiting for the rain on her shoes to seep into the hemp mat. Taking advantage of this moment, her eyes searched cautiously in the bookstore. At last, her eyes were fixed on the wooden staircase leading to the second floor—no one had come to greet her, and she was at ease.

After all, Liangyou Bookstore is a bookstore that sells books, not a café.

She walked up the stairs, and when she stood down, she looked at the man who sat in the middle of the stairs with his head bowed and reading a book—a dark gray Shandong silk robe, a black linen top hat, a very high-end walking stick, and a delicate lambskin briefcase...... The musty smell in the air seemed to be getting heavier, so heavy that it choked her nose, so heavy that her breathing was temporarily blocked.

In the narrow aisle between the bookshelves, even though no one is moving, it seems that there is a surging air current. Jingyi grabbed her handbag and clenched her ...... The book in his hand had not turned a page since she stood in front of him.

"Do you have a gun with you?" He opened his mouth slowly and closed the book slowly.

This unusually familiar voice shook Jingyi's heart.

She had already made enough mental preparations, but she still felt her legs weak uncontrollably.

He looked up at the woman in front of him—it was cloudy, and it was far from the window, and he could see her clearly. And the gray bookcase made her black figure even darker. It's just that her eyes, no matter how dark they are, will shine like stars...... No matter what meaning it might have in her gaze.

"I thought you might not come," he said...... Or maybe you don't want to come. Jingyi, you still have a lot of guts. It's great. Please, let's go up and talk. ”

Jingyi was silent, watching him casually put the book on the shelf next to him, picked up his belongings, and invited her upstairs. But instead of going first, he stood there and gave way to her the narrow staircase passage.

Jingyi didn't hesitate, raised her feet and stepped onto the stairs. As she passed by him, Jing Yi whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I'm here because you have the information I want here...... Meng Yuan. ”

Dai Mengyuan nodded and said, "The information has been given to you." You have come to know the authenticity of the information. ”

Jingyi did not deny it.

Dai Mengyuan...... She hadn't remembered the name for a long time. His life and death seem to have been decided a long time ago. She called him Meng Yuan, but she wasn't sure what his name was.

She went upstairs.

Upstairs was quieter and darker.

Jingyi stood at the top of the stairs. Her hearing is very sensitive, but she can barely hear the voice of the person behind her...... She gripped the bag tighter, as hard as she could

Keep your composure.

Dai Mengyuan didn't seem to notice her reaction, and took the initiative to go to the window. There was a small table and a few chairs by the window, which were for the guests to rest when they were tired of picking up books - he asked, "Do you remember here?" Once upon a time you used to like to sit here and read...... The weather is bad today and there are few guests. ”

Jingyi turned her head and happened to see a clerk passing by the staircase. He glanced up as if unintentionally, and when he met hers, he smiled humbly and passed.

"I'm afraid it's not because it's raining, but because you're going to meet here, right?" Jing Yi whispered. She walked over to the table and sat down.

Dai Mengyuan also sat down. He put everything on the table and said to Jingyi, "To me, you can never be considered a guest. ”

"I'm not here to catch up." Jingyi said.

She looked at Dai Mengyuan's face—Dai Mengyuan did not avoid her gaze, but reached out and pushed the window open a little, and while the light became brighter, he also looked out through the cracks in the blinds—he was still so vigilant...... Jingyi put the handbag on her lap and remained silent.

His countenance had changed a lot, his scars were much lighter, and he had more wrinkles—a little too much. Although he has a very neatly trimmed hairstyle, the fine white hair is also very eye-catching, which makes him look like a middle-aged man in his forties.

"I didn't expect to see you again." Jingyi said.

"I didn't expect you to come to see me." Dai Mengyuan finally turned to Jingyi. He looked at her quietly, "Haruko Fujino was imprisoned in Dingjia Village in the early hours of this morning. ”

Jing Yi stared at Dai Mengyuan. Her heart lifted.

Although the letter had already revealed the news, she still found it difficult to face it after confirming it again.

"He has been put to death." Dai Mengyuan said.

Jingyi clutched the handle of the bag.

"When she was brought in, she didn't use her real name and didn't go through many interrogations. Therefore, it is difficult to confirm the identity. And, I just knew you were trying to rescue her...... I'm afraid that you will get involved too deeply and attract more danger, so I will find a way to inform you. Originally, I wanted to pass other comrades, but I am afraid it is too late to think about it. Let alone...... I want to meet you too. Dai Mengyuan said. He looked at Jingyi, "Jingyi? Are you okay? ”

"What about the corpses?" Jingyi asked.

"The family will be notified to claim it. If her adoptive father doesn't claim it, he'll dispose of it. Dai Mengyuan said.

Jingyi looked at him.

Dai Mengyuan shook his head and said, "It's very difficult. ”

"I know." Jingyi lowered her head, "Thank you." ”

"Leave Shanghai, Jingyi." Dai Mengyuan said.

"Nope. I'm not going to leave here easily. Jingyi looked up. She saw a complicated look on Dai Mengyuan's face, "Thank you." Meng Yuan, take care. ”

She stood up.

She didn't have anything more to know about him. And she also knows that even if she wants to know, she must not ask more.

"If I can, I'll try to help. You can rest assured. Although I don't know why, you have to risk so much to save her. Dai Mengyuan also stood up, "I still hope you can leave Shanghai as soon as possible." ”

"Thank you." Jingyi said. There doesn't seem to be anything else to say...... Having confirmed the worst news, and having met the person she once thought she would never see again, she still has something very important to do. "It's time for me to go."

"It's inconvenient for me to go out and see you off." Dai Mengyuan said.

Jingyi nodded and left.

Dai Mengyuan looked at her back and couldn't help but follow her two steps. Before Jingyi went downstairs, she stood down and looked back at him.

He whispered, "Commander Tao knows. I've met him once. ”

Jingyi nodded.

Tao Xiang ...... When she turned to go downstairs, she felt a little lightheaded. But she didn't have time to think too much, and walked out of the bookstore quickly. The attendant, who was already waiting, followed her all the way and escorted her to the car. The car quickly drove to the Cheng Mansion on Haig Road. When the car passed through the dense checkpoint and drove to the door of Cheng Mansion, as soon as it stopped, someone opened the door for her. When she looked up, it was Dunhuang.

"How dare you! Did you know that we were all in a hurry just now? Xiao Dunhuang's face was extremely ugly.
