Chapter 140: Crossing the Ocean for Help

The gate of "Yuefu" was a hundred meters ahead, and Yang Qianye quickened his pace and walked towards that end.

Suddenly, someone honked her horn, and when she looked back, a brand-new car was parked behind her, and Lu Meiqin poked her head out of it.

She chuckled in her heart, she didn't expect this episode.

"Aunt Lu." She still greeted politely, unconsciously nervous.

"Why are you here?" Lu Meiqin looked at the gate of Yuefu and frowned, "Looking for Song Yingchen?" ”

"Well, he'll be down right away."

"What's the matter with him?" Lu Meiqin asked suspiciously, with a look of disgust on her face.

"Ask him to help me inquire about someone......"

After hearing this, Lu Meiqin pulled the car aside slightly, rolled down the window completely, and she had to cooperate and walked to the cab window.

"Who?"

She wanted to say the words "no comment", but she was silent.

Lu Meiqin asked again: "Are you still angry with me?" ”

She shook her head, eyes looking to the side.

"You're not going to listen to chocolate?"

She finally replied, still with the same attitude as before. "I made it clear last time that I wouldn't do anything unconscionable."

Lu Meiqin self-deprecatingly touched her hair back along her forehead, looking up and down at this former "ally".

"Then you're not taking revenge?"

"I'll figure it out myself."

Lu Meiqin looked disdainful, and said proudly: "He promised to tell me the truth immediately, and when the project in my hand has a prototype, it will be completed." ”

She thought that Chiba would ask curiously, but who knew that she just threw out two lukewarm words.

"Congratulations."

"Hey, why bother with him......" Lu Meiqin stretched her neck to look left and right, and lowered her voice, "The dawn is ahead, give up halfway, I feel sorry for you." ”

"I have my principles, and there are things I can't do."

"Do you know how many principles I've broken up to this day? Talking about principles is divided into time and occasions, and you can talk about principles on a smooth road ahead, but what to do with principles when your eyes are black, you can't light up the road ahead. Little girl, I advise you to be sensible, think about how many years that darkness has plagued you, and do you want to continue to haunt you like this? Not cost-effective. ”

"Aunt Lu, I also advise you to know that you are lost, although I am not sure how deeply involved you are, but if you have something to do with that kind of place, you are still playing with fire. How much Song Yingchen loves you, and how important you are to him, I don't need to be reminded by an outsider. So please think for him, don't lose your nature for revenge. ”

"Hmph......" Lu Meiqin made a contemptuous voice, "Thank you for your advice, but ......"

"Don't say it, he's coming." Her gaze turned in the direction of the gate.

Song Yingchen trotted all the way, and gradually slowed down after seeing her mother's car.

The gloomy thing on Lu Meiqin's face disappeared in an instant, and her mother's loving and gentle smile turned into it.

"Son!"

"Mom...... Chiba. Song Yingchen greeted her first, and looked at Chiba for some reason, Chiba quietly shook her head, indicating that she didn't mention her intention to Lu Meiqin.

"What's the matter with being in such a hurry?" Lu Meiqin spied.

"No, no." He said hesitantly.

"She said to ask you about someone, who?"

He wittily coaxed: "Oh, Chiba wants to find a job, don't I have a classmate who is starting a business and starting a company on my own, I just want to help build a line." Yu Guang has been paying attention to the restless Chiba.

Lu Meiqin said, "Miss Yang, do you want me to introduce you to a job, Auntie can still help with this favor." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Lu, no need."

"It's almost time, let's go." Song Yingchen grabbed Chiba's arm and walked forward, turning back to say goodbye to Lu Meiqin, "Mom, let's go first." ”

Looking at the hurried backs of the two, Lu Meiqin was full of resentment.

Song Yingchen didn't know when she began to keep a distance from her, a mother, which made her unable to have seizures and intolerable, and she could only watch the relationship between them become more and more awkward.

Song Yingchen pulled Chiba and kept running, there was no intention of slowing down, it was less than an hour before the agreed time, and he had to find a place where he could access the Internet as soon as possible.

"Do you have internet access there?" He asked as he ran.

"I don't have a computer."

"Where is He Chong?"

"He can do it there, with a network cable and a laptop."

"Then go to him."

"Isn't it okay?"

"I couldn't find a more suitable place for a short period of time, and I also considered an Internet cafΓ©, but the environment was too noisy. Didn't you say he put the key at you, he should be working on this point, and we'll solve it quickly. ”

"I think it's better to give him a call, or it will feel like a thief." Chiba hesitated, remembering the misunderstanding that happened in the cafΓ© last time, and still had palpitations, "I brought it up when he put the key in me, thinking that I could go over and help him clean up if he didn't go to work now." ”

Song Yingchen understood, nodded in agreement: "Then let's fight one." ”

She dialed He Chong's phone.

"Hey, it's me, you're at work? Is it okay for me to use a computer in the past...... Inventory information...... Okay, thanks...... Well, bye-bye. ”

At the same time, Song Yingchen had stopped a taxi and stuffed her inside.

The road was smooth, and soon they arrived at the apartment where He Chong and her lived.

Opening the door of He Chong's room, Song Yingchen walked around from the living room to the bedroom.

"It seems that he really likes you, and this kind of condition can also be wronged." There was respect and sourness in his expression, surprise and admiration, "The magic of love is really terrifying......"

These words reached the ears of Chiba, who was opening the computer and plugging in the network cable, and could only be ignored.

"Alright." She said, the computer desktop showed.

Song Yingchen moved a stool and sat down, logged in to a chat software with his account, and then found Amy in the dialog box.

Click on the video chat and wait for the screen to open after a while.

Chiba's heart is racing and there is some lack of oxygen.

"Relax." Noticing that she was a little nervous, he reassured.

Amy appears on the screen, as she was when she first met.

β€œHey!” Her warm and easy-going greeting is not at all embarrassing in front of her ex-boyfriend.

β€œHey! Is she coming? Song Yingchen asked, Amy nodded, and invited another woman about forty-seven or eighteen in front of the camera.

"Chiba, this is Claire, that is, the Lady Liu Meixian you are looking for."

Liu Meixian nodded kindly.

Amy continued, "Claire and I were only a block away, and she volunteered in the community every week, so it was much easier than I thought to find her. Chiba, I'll briefly explain your request, Claire has twenty minutes, you can ask yourself. ”

Amy said as she adjusted the camera again and exited the frame herself.

Song Yingchen also sat away with interest, and only Liu Meixian and Yang Qianye were left in front of the camera.

"Hello, Liu ...... Aunt. Chiba said hello nervously.

"Call me Claire, don't be nervous." Liu Meixian's eyebrows are very similar to the grandmother she saw in Qingshui Town, and she also has an approachable cordiality, "Miss Yang, I heard that you have seen my mommy, how is she doing lately?" ”

"Grandma is in good health, and she goes to the river to wash clothes alone."

Liu Meixian smiled knowingly: "Heh, it's still the same, I don't use any electrical appliances, I refuse all modern lifestyles, I want to take her out to play, and I won't leave the town even if I am killed." ”

"Yes, she said that she was born in Qingshui Town, grew up in Qingshui Town, grew up in Qingshui Town, grew up in Qingshui Town, and didn't want to go anywhere."

"If you die, you will die in Qingshui Town......" Liu Meixian said without taboo, but there was helplessness in her eyes. After a little emotion, she turned the conversation to Chiba.

"I heard that you have some questions that you want to consult me, I don't have much time today, let's make a long story short."

Chiba nodded, holding up the "Twelve Golden Flowers" retake photo.

"This photo was borrowed from my grandmother, I remade a copy, I hope you don't mind."

Seeing the old photos, Liu Meixian couldn't help but lean in front of the camera, and then smiled all over her face.

"My God, time flies, I'm almost an old woman." She was obviously very familiar with the photos and joked, "What, you're interested in our former beautiful girls?" ”

Chiba pointed to Mo Lianzhi in the photo.

"This is my mother."

Liu Meixian opened her eyes wide and carefully distinguished.

"I can't see clearly, who is your mother?"

"Mo Lianzhi."

"Ahh You are the daughter of Hasuyuki! She excitedly clasped her hands together and put them on her chest, and sighed infinitely, "No wonder I think you are very familiar, it seems that you should call me aunt." He giggled.

"Auntie?"

"At the beginning, we twelve girls learned gold art together, ate and lived together, loved each other, and were as good as sisters, shouldn't you call me Aunt Sheng...... How's it going, how is your mom? ”

She sighed and told her mother about her falling from a building and being in a vegetative state seventeen years ago.

Hearing that the former sisters ended up like this, Liu Meixian couldn't help but be surprised.

"I didn't expect Lianzhi's life to be so bitter."

"Claire, I want to ask, is my mother from Clearwater?"

"No, I heard that her parents died, and she came to Qingshui Town to seek refuge with her uncle. But within a few years, her uncle also fell ill and died, and the remaining aunt could not tolerate her, so she kicked her out of the door. She had nowhere to go, so she wandered around the town, and it was the moon again, and she was only wearing a thin shirt, shivering from the cold. Fortunately, the Master took her in kindly, and she became the Master's first female apprentice. In fact, she is not the oldest among us in terms of age, but she is the oldest one in terms of seniority, and she has the best craftsmanship. ”

"It seems that my mother has had a rough life in this life, I thought she was from Qingshui Town, and she could find her mother's family there." Chiba said sadly, her eyes were already moist.

"She is a very good person, she doesn't talk much or do much, and whoever asks her to do a favor will agree, and she never shirks. But it's just that his temperament is weaker, and he always loves someone to wipe his tears secretly when he encounters something, and he doesn't tell or fight with others. ”

"So I can't figure out why such a kind and indisputable person would be poisoned like this!" Chiba began to get excited, and her two fists clenched unconsciously.

"Are you sure she was killed?"

"Sure, when I saw a dark shadow slipping away from the rooftop, that person must be the murderer."

"What about your father, I haven't seen you mention him for so long?"

"He is a gambler, he owes a lot of debts outside, and he was killed when his mother had an accident, and the case has not been solved."

"Hey, I'm sorry to ask you this, it reminds you of something unhappy."

She waved her hand to indicate that it was okay, then held the picture up again.

"Can you tell me more about the people and things in the photos?"

Liu Meixian's expression froze slightly, as if she remembered something.

"Back then, a guest celebrated his mother's birthday and asked Master to make a full set of 12 pieces of jewelry as a congratulatory gift. Master asked each of us to be responsible for one piece, and this photo was a group photo after it was completed. ”

Hearing the word "jewelry", Chiba felt that another object in her pocket was about to move.

"What kind of jewelry?"

"What necklaces, rings, bracelets, brooches, earrings...... There are all the accessories imaginable. ”

She had a vague feeling that the message she wanted was about to come out.

"Do you remember what my mom did?"

Liu Meixian replied without thinking: "I really can't remember other people's, but the brooch made by Lianzhi will never forget it for the rest of my life." ”

"Why?"

"Because the most satisfying thing for the guests is the brooch, and it ......," Liu Meixian said as if she realized something, and stopped the car in time.

"What else?"

"Nothing, nothing."

"Claire......" A look that resembled a begging appeared on Chiba's face.

Liu Meixian took a sip of water, hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Actually, the guest is not interested in the brooch, but the person who made the brooch, that is, Lianzhi." ”

"How?"

Before the jewelry was finished, the guest invited Master to his mother's birthday feast, and specifically instructed that the brooch maker should go with him. It goes without saying that he has taken a fancy to Lianzhi and wants to know her alone. ”

"Fancy Mom?"

"It's not surprising, although the twelve golden flowers are all peugeot, but if you really want to rank second, Lotus is definitely the top three. It's the age of youthful flying, and my fair lady and gentleman are good. ”

"Did Mom go?"

"No, she exchanged work with another craftswoman before it was finished, and the sister went to the feast for her."

"Why didn't she go?"

"I don't know, but if she's going, it won't happen later...... Oh, I'm sorry, I seem to have said something I shouldn't have said. At this time, Liu Meixian fell into a strange circle, on the one hand, she was silent about certain things, and on the other hand, she was revealing bit by bit. She couldn't figure out why, but vaguely felt that her honesty would cause misunderstanding for Chiba, and it might also cause trouble for someone who had long been lost.

Chiba saw her contradictions, and continued to ask after her.

"What happened next?"

"Well, with that said, I might as well tell you what happened back then, it's been so long anyway. The customer who ordered the jewelry was very promising, I was young at the time, and I didn't know much about some things, except that he was the big brother of the gang. He had a good impression of Lianzhi, and he was a little angry when he didn't see it at the birthday banquet, so he came down to talk about the master. It didn't take long for Master to shut down Jinfang, and the sisters were dismissed. ”

When the word "gang ......" appeared in Chiba's mind, she couldn't help but think of some underworld forces, "Just because he didn't go to the banquet, he held a grudge against his mother, and threatened your master to shut up Jinfang?" After asking the question, she couldn't help but stand up.

"No, no, don't be so sensitive." Liu Meixian hurriedly persuaded, "Jinfang is closed because of ...... Because the eldest brother was later seized by other people in the gang, the master was afraid of causing trouble, so he made this decision. ”

"I don't understand, is there any connection between these things?"

Liu Meixian finally put herself in a dilemma, and kept her mouth shut for a long time, not knowing how to answer.

"Claire, I want to know everything about Mommy, please tell me."

"I'm sorry, that's all I know."

"No, as you just said, if Mom had gone to the birthday party, the rest would have happened. In other words, she has something to do with the gang's seizure of power, right? ”

Chiba was so excited that her neck turned red, and Song Yingchen on the side hurriedly pulled her shirt and signaled her to calm down.

"She has nothing to do with the gang seizing power, it's the sister who went to the banquet on her behalf......"

"Who is she and what is her name, please point it out to me!"

"Please don't embarrass me, if I had known that you were here with the purpose of finding the real murderer, I wouldn't have said so much lightly. I understand you, you were only a few years old when your mother had an accident, and you don't know anything about her past, so no matter what you hear, you will unconsciously fall from the building. I don't want to mislead you, and I don't think the turmoil had anything to do with her falling from the building, if you think it was the gang brother who took revenge on her, then I can tell you with certainty, it's impossible. That big brother is dead, just at the moment when he was seized power. ”

Chiba finally took out the key evidence.

The moment she saw the cosmos brooch, Liu Meixian was stunned.

"Cosmos brooch! How did you have this? ”

"Mom suddenly had such an extra thing on her body after she fell from the building, so I always wanted to find out what happened in Qingshui Town."

Liu Meixian blushed, neither daring to face the camera directly, nor daring to say anything further.

"Since that person is dead, and this thing is not my mother's, why did it suddenly appear at the scene after falling from the building?"

"I can't answer that question, I've already told you what I know."

"Then tell me, who is the person who went to the banquet on behalf of my mother, and what is his name, I will ask her." Once again, Chiba held up the photo and asked for identification.

"Sorry, I can't do that."

"Why?"

"I'm very unkind today, I've said too many things that have caused misunderstanding and even misleading to you, and I can't involve other people anymore. The turmoil of the past has long since disappeared, and you just said that your father was a gambler, and I think it was the creditor who couldn't collect the debt, so he was poisoned, what do you say? ”

"......"

Song Yingchen suddenly spoke: "I think Claire is right, and it is reasonable for her to have concerns." If anything she says is related to your mother, it may go in the wrong direction and even delay your search for the truth. ”

"Okay, my time is up, please convey my greetings to Lianzhi no matter what, let her take good care of her body, bye-bye." Liu Meixian said goodbye and stood up from the camera without hesitation.

Chiba was helpless.

"Thank you...... And Sister Amy, thank you. ”

Amy poked her head out and smiled, signaling that she was not welcome, and turned off the video after a brief goodbye.
