100. looming

Just after 3 p.m., the Countess and Anna returned to their room, then locked the door, picked up the phone, and said in English, "Please help me pick up the Peninsula Hong Kong." ”

Ling Yunpeng and Fu Xinghan saw that the countess and Anna had returned to the room, and they also hurried back to the next room, Fu Xinghan picked up the glass and stuck it against the wall, put his ear close to the glass, and listened carefully to the call next door.

Soon the phone was connected, and the countess said to the hotel switchboard, "Please help me transfer to the presidential suite." “

After a while, the Countess heard a lady asking her in Russian: "Who are you looking for?" “

The countess guessed that this must be the ambassador's secretary, and hurriedly said excitedly in Russian: "Hello, I am looking for the military attache Vasily Petrov, I am his sister. ”

Fearing that the embassy staff would not be able to speak to anyone other than relatives, the Countess falsely claimed to be Vasily's sister.

"Okay, I'll transfer you to his room." The secretary responded.

Not long after, Vasily's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Honey, where have you been, I have been calling you for the past two days, and no one has answered, Natasha, are you and Anna okay?" ”

When the countess heard Vasily's voice, she couldn't help but burst into tears: "My dear, you don't know what Anna and I have been through in the past two days? I really don't want to stay here for a day, I want to be with you right away, it's horrible here, someone wants to kill us. We're hiding now, oh Vasily, do you hear me? ”

"Honey, how can this be, I'm really worried about you, how are you doing now, is there still danger?"

"Fortunately, we met a few kind Chinese, Anna and I stayed in their house temporarily, they treated us very well and took good care of us, Vasily, did the rich man you mentioned come?"

"Natasha, I called you just to tell you that the Monopoly man is in the United States now, and he plans to take a Pan Am flight to Shanghai tomorrow, and he will be there in about five days if it is fast."

"It takes five days to get there by plane?" The Countess was a little puzzled.

"Yes, flying from San Francisco, passing through Honolulu, Midway, Wake Island, Guam and then Shanghai, so it's a long way, and you have to refuel, the current situation is very bad, the airport is sometimes blown up, so you have to be a little patient, you can bear with it for a few more days, remember, his name is William Samuel, he is the heir of the Samuel consortium, after he arrives in Shanghai, he will stay at the Park Hotel, and you can go to the Park Hotel to find him."

"Okay, I remember. William Samuel, who flew to Shanghai on a Pan Am flight, arrived about five days later and checked into the Park Hotel. The Countess repeated.

"Natasha, what's your phone number here, I'll tell Samuel the number, then he can take the initiative to contact you when he arrives at the Parker Hotel."

"Well, okay, it's 7411."

"Okay, I remember, my dear, don't leave your house these days, take care of the phone. Our good days are coming, and I'm waiting for you in London. I love you! Vasily kissed Natasha on the phone.

"I love you too!" The Countess reluctantly hung up the phone.

Finally there was hope, the countess had a rare smile on her face, and she and Anna hugged tightly: "Anna, we are almost at the end of our life." ”

The countess was very relieved to talk to Vasily in Russian, because she had tested it before, and said thank you in Russian, I love you, the four Chinese looked at her stupidly, I don't know what she was talking about, even such a simple Russian could not understand, it can be seen that these people do not understand Russian, originally, the Russians in Shanghai are not very powerful, in this city, there are many people who can speak English, Japanese, French, and even those who can speak German are more than those who can speak Russian, So she wasn't worried that the secrets she told Vasily would be overheard.

And it was in the next room that Fu Xinghan relayed what the countess said to Ling Yunpeng word for word.

"William Samuel, I'm flying to Shanghai on a Pan Am flight, I'll be in Shanghai in about five days, and I'll be staying at the Parker Hotel." Ling Yunpeng repeated softly: "I heard that there is a famous consortium in Britain called the Samuel Foundation, is that William the head of this consortium?" ”

"It doesn't matter who he is, there are only a few days left anyway, so we have to hurry. If you want me to say, let's be direct, anyway, these two women are in our hands now, and I have the way to persecute women. Fu Xinghan put forward his own suggestions, and in his opinion, Ling Yunpeng's way was too soft and too accommodating.

"Nope." Ling Yunpeng vetoed it and glared at Fu Xinghan: "Don't underestimate this countess, you see that whether it is Smith or Tanaka, there is no way to get the truth out of her mouth, she used a few pieces of silk to deceive those people, including us, in case of urgency, she will burn all the jade, we will not get anything, don't forget, she is a countess, a nobleman, I believe that a nobleman will not compromise easily." ”

"Then we can only get close to her like this?" Fu Xinghan pursed his lips, then narrowed his eyes, and a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "However, it is true that a woman like the Countess should not be rude, but should be turned into a soft finger." “

"Alright, plaything, go and see, what else can you eat at night. Go out and buy some of the Countess's favorite food. By the way, go buy some clothes for these two women, the countess and her maid can't do without a change of clothes, the money is in Nezha, you have a good eye, pick a few suitable clothes for them. ”

"I really pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, it seems that you are better at coaxing women than me." Fu Xinghan squeezed his eyes at Ling Yunpeng.

Ling Yunpeng pouted: "I didn't give you the opportunity, and I was so sour." Go for it. ”

Fu Xinghan walked out of the door and knocked on the door of the countess's room, Anna opened the door, Fu Xinghan stood at the door and asked very gentlemanly, "Madam, what do you want to eat at night?" I'll buy it for you. ”

"Oh, it's Haisheng, you're so kind, if it's not troublesome, I'd like to eat caviar, beetroot soup, and Black Forest cake." A charming smile appeared on the countess's face.

"Okay, no problem. I'm going to buy it right away. ”

"Actually, Anna is also very good at cooking Russian dishes, as long as there are ingredients, Anna can make some delicious dishes." The Countess introduced to Fu Xinghan.

"Alright, I'll go buy the ingredients today, and tomorrow we can try Anna's craft." Fu Xinghan was overjoyed, and in the future, Anna, the cook, cooked rice for everyone.

As soon as Ah Hui, a greedy cat, heard that there was something to eat, he hurriedly walked over: "What are you talking about delicious?" ”

"From tomorrow onwards, Anna will cook a delicious Russian meal for everyone, how about it, are you surprised? Not surprised? In your boy's lifetime, there are Russian girls who cook for you, and your ancestral grave is really smoking. Fu Xinghan patted Ah Hui's head.

"Hey, hey." Ah Hui touched his head, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked Fu Xinghan: "Is it Sunday today?" ”

"yes, it's Sunday, what's the matter?" Fu Xinghan didn't know what Ah Hui's intention was when he asked about the date.

Ah Hui pulled Fu Xinghan into the room: "Idiot, I almost forgot, the landlady asked me several times, saying that her adopted daughter came home today and wanted you to meet her daughter, who admired you very much and regarded you as an idol." ”

"What did I say to make her daughter worship me so much?" Fu Xinghan had already forgotten all his original words.

"Aren't you a writer? Her daughter loves literature, so she can't wait to meet you. Ah Hui reminded Fu Xinghan's identity.

Fu Xinghan remembered what he once boasted to the landlady: "Alas, I just said it casually at the beginning, but I didn't expect this mother and daughter to take it seriously." ”
