497. in the first place

At seven o'clock the next night, Fu Xinghan in a suit and leather shoes appeared on time on the Waibaidu Bridge, he saw Qi Heng already standing on the bridge, Qi Heng was also wearing a straight suit today, wearing a top hat, and holding a small suitcase in his hand, and when he saw Fu Xinghan coming, he beckoned to him.

"Rickshaw." Fu Xinghan called a rickshaw, then got in the car with Qi Heng, and said to the driver: "Lane 81, Shigaota Road." ”

"Okay." The coachman lifted the pole and pulled the two in the direction of Shigaota Road.

In front of Lane 81 of Shigaota Road, after Fu Xinghan paid for the car, he walked to Gate 35 with Qi Heng.

Fu Xinghan knocked on the door, and Mrs. Morita answered from inside: "It's here." ”

Then there was a sound of clogs clattering.

Mrs. Morita opened the door and saw that it was Fu Xinghan, and there was a well-dressed strange man standing next to her, so she smiled and asked in Japanese, "Ito-kun, is this your friend who wants to rent a house?" ”

Fu Xinghan replied in Japanese: "Yes, Mrs. Morita, this is my Chinese friend, and after listening to me about the situation of the house, he asked me to come and see the house after getting off the train today." ”

Qi Heng knew a little Japanese, but compared to Fu Xinghan's fluent and pure Japanese, he probably understood Fu Xinghan's words, and then bowed to Mrs. Morita and said in Japanese: "I'm sorry for the trouble." ”

"You're too polite to know what to call you?" Mrs. Morita bowed and asked.

"My surname is Xu."

"Oh, Mr. Xu, please come in, Ito-kun, please come in!" Mrs. Morita greeted warmly.

Qi Heng and Fu Xinghan walked into No. 35 and walked through the courtyard to the ground floor, Qi Heng looked around and nodded frequently: "Well, it's good here, it's very clean, but will the light be a little dark during the day?" ”

"Oh, Mr. Xu, the light downstairs is a little dim, but the upstairs light is still very good, but it's already night, during the day, the light there is still very sufficient, my legs and feet are a little inconvenient, so I live in the downstairs room, there are three rooms upstairs, Mr. Xu can go upstairs to see, you can live in whichever room you want, then I can give you the bedding." Mrs. Morita has lived in Shanghai for seven or eight years, so she can understand most of the Chinese and can speak some simple Chinese.

"Okay, excuse me." After Qi Heng finished speaking, he walked upstairs.

Fu Xinghan also went upstairs with Qi Heng, they went straight to the east room, Fu Xinghan closed the curtains, only revealing a corner of the side, and then introduced to Qi Heng softly: "Captain Qi, have you seen it, there are two people in the north room, the one lying on the bed with his hands behind his head is He Xiaoguang, and the one who is half-lying and holding the pictorial in his hand is Yoshino." ”

In fact, before Fu Xinghan introduced the two people, Qi Heng had already seen the familiar figure, and now it is less than eight o'clock, He Xiaoguang is already lying on the bed with nothing to do, when he was in the action team before, He Xiaoguang was a famous night owl, and he was also a talker, always chatting with other team members, Kan Dashan, full of energy, and now, it has obviously changed a lot.

"Okay, drama idiot, I know, you go back, I'll do the rest of the work!"

"Don't you need my help?"

Qi Heng shook his head: "No need, I will handle it myself, this is the internal affairs of our action team." ”

Fu Xinghan nodded after hearing this: "Okay." ”

"Let's go, let's go down first, and let Mrs. Morita have a reassurance." Qi Heng said, patted Fu Xinghan on the shoulder, and went downstairs with Fu Xinghan.

"Mrs. Morita, I'm happy with your upstairs room, and I'd like to rent the room on the east side." Qi Heng said with a smile on his face: "If I can, I will live here tonight." ”

Mrs. Morita was overjoyed: "Great, Mr. Xu, I'll prepare bedding for you." ”

"Then I'm sorry for you, Mrs. Morita, this is this month's rent, please take it." Qi Heng took out a stack of dollars from the inner pocket of his suit and handed it to Mrs. Morita.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, you are such a cheerful person." Mrs. Morita took the money, bowed to Qi Heng, and then went to the drawer and took out a key and handed it to Qi Heng: "Oh, by the way, this is the door key, please put it away." ”

"Then Mrs. Morita, I'll go first, and my friend will ask you to take care of me." Fu Xinghan said goodbye to Mrs. Morita in Japanese.

"Don't worry, Ito-kun, thank you!"

"You're welcome!" Fu Xinghan bowed to Mrs. Morita, then signaled to Qi Heng, and walked out of No. 35.

Mrs. Morita took out the bedding, and Qi Heng immediately took it: "Mrs. Morita, I'll take it myself, your legs and feet are inconvenient, so you don't have to come up, it's late today, I'll go up and rest first, I have to go to the company tomorrow, and I may have to go on a business trip these days, so I don't necessarily come back to live these days." ”

Qi Heng made excuses for his future disappearance.

"Oh, I didn't expect Mr. Xu's company to be so busy, it's okay, I know."

Qi Heng took the bedding and went upstairs, then walked into the east room, turned around and locked the door, he took out a Colt revolver from the small suitcase, and then installed the silencer.

Qi Heng took out a telescope from the small suitcase, lifted the curtains, and looked at the movement in the room on the north floor of the second floor of No. 38 diagonally opposite.

Qi Heng raised his hand and looked at the time, it was already about half past eight, and in the room diagonally opposite, He Xiaoguang was still lying listlessly on the bed, silent, and on the bed next to him, Yoshino was reading a star pictorial, looking at it, yawning, and sleepy.

Qi Heng aimed the Colt revolver at the two people diagonally opposite, and shot from this angle, which was completely within the shooting range, Qi Heng tried it, and then put the pistol down. He didn't intend to put He Xiaoguang to death so silently, since he was injured that time, he hadn't seen He Xiaoguang again, but he didn't expect that when he saw him again, he came to take his life. Therefore, Qi Heng wanted to meet He Xiaoguang again before the execution, and say a few more words, even if it was just a few words.

Qi Heng looked at the surrounding buildings again, No. 38 is an independent two-story building, the room to the south has turned off the lights, the people inside should have slept, and the southernmost room next to it has a small window still open, there should be a bathroom. Qi Heng decided to meet He Xiaoguang in the bathroom, because he was still very clear about He Xiaoguang's situation, He Xiaoguang had been injured once, and the bullet hit him near his bladder, causing He Xiaoguang to urinate frequently. Therefore, Qi Heng felt that the bathroom was a suitable place for the two to meet.

And there was a tall plane tree next to this independent two-story building, and Qi Heng felt that this was an opportunity for him to enter the bathroom from here.

In the middle of the night, Qi Heng quietly climbed out of the window, then climbed down the water pipe next to the small building, ran to the plane tree next to No. 38, climbed up slowly, and lay on the branch near the bathroom, the dense plane leaves just played a role in masking, Qi Heng hid in the tree, paying close attention to the movement in the house.

After about an hour, Qi Heng saw the lights on the north window, He Xiaoguang got up from the bed, Qi Heng guessed that He Xiaoguang had come to the toilet, so he quickly stood up from the plane tree, jumped up, grabbed the edge of the bathroom window, turned inside, and hid behind the bathroom door.

He Xiaoguang pushed open the bathroom door in a depressed spirit, turned on the light, and walked towards the toilet, since he was captured, his sleep has been terrible, previously because of the torture injuries all over his body made him unable to sleep, after the injury was healed, he fell into a deep guilt, he was like a walking corpse with his soul removed, wandering behind the Japanese ass all day long, he felt that the rest of his life would be consumed in this endless mental torture in the future.
