"Who's that?" Gao Yi pointed to the bearded Ah San in the distance and asked.

He was talking to another old friend, Mr. Wilson, the Inspector, and it just so happened that he happened to be patrolling the old gate to catch the house today. At this time, Mr. Wilson was no longer the domineering appearance he had when he led the team to Yaxian Ju last time, and he showed a hint of respectful familiarity, but there was no servile kneeling.

He couldn't answer Gao Yi's question, if it was a Chinese patrol, even if the level was low, as long as he was a little famous, it was still possible for him to know. However, although India Ah San looks mighty, their actual job is to maintain traffic, so it can be said that they have no intersection with him, the chief inspector.

Wilson gestured with his eyes to the deputy inspector of the old gate, McGregor, who was always confused, not knowing what the young man was coming from.

"It's Bersinger." McGregor couldn't name the Indian with the beard under his eyes, and finally followed McPherson behind them.

Gao Yi didn't say much, he was just curious. He was now in a relaxed mood visiting the patrol house in front of him, just like any tourist visiting a historic building from a hundred years ago, not to mention that the docent next to him was not a cosplay, but a real person with a name and a surname from a hundred years ago.

Since handing over the sales of pear paste candy, Gao Yi's heart seems to have let go of a heavy burden, and he is suddenly much more relaxed. Whether it will succeed or not is something that needs to be considered in the future, at least for the time being, there is no better choice for him, and it is better to leave this work in the hands of a professional than rotten in his own hands. He asked himself that he had never been the right person to handle such trivial matters.

In terms of the division of functions, the arrest houses of this era are basically no different from the police stations of later generations, such as duty rooms, detectives' offices, patrol rest rooms, gun rooms, interrogation rooms, temporary detention rooms, police quarters, and beggars' shelters and stables with the characteristics of the times. It's just that some things just sound the same in name, but there are differences in nature, for example, the interrogation room should be called the torture room in Gao Yi's opinion, because the roof is equipped with a big iron bar, which can hang the prisoner and torture him; There are also leather whips, fire burners, bamboo sticks and other torture instruments, all of which prove that the traditional way is still used here, and it is also the traditional way of handling cases in China.

After a long circle, half an hour had passed, and Gao Yi politely declined Wilson's offer for afternoon tea and boarded the carriage with McPherson. Wilson and McGregor went straight to the carriage, and when the carriage was activated, Wilson said:

"Good luck little one, isn't it? But what do we do when we come to this horn bump? Isn't it just for good luck? ”

"Who is he? I've never heard of Gao Yi among the Scots in Shanghai. Is it new from Britain? ”

"Believe me, my friend, he's going to be a big guy, didn't you see what he was doing? I've only seen this kind of grandeur in the real big guys. Wilson didn't answer McGregor's question head-on.

When Gao Yi got into the car, a large number of people behind him saw him off, and there was a lot of movement, which naturally alarmed Ah Sheng in front of the pear stall. However, from his position, there were not only trees and iron fences in the middle, but also the shelter of Indian Ahsan, so he only saw a very tall foreigner get into the carriage, and then the six-fingered detective who he was focusing on in the store also followed into the carriage.

When the carriage passed, Ah Sheng just lowered his eyes and did not move, although he was the object that needed to be taken care of, but he was walking in a carriage, and he was not tied to the scud of a horse, what ability did he have to follow with two legs.

It wasn't until the carriage passed that he raised his eyelids again and continued his work.

At this time, the spring equinox is approaching, the days are getting longer and longer, and the sky is not completely dark until half past six, and it is no longer possible to see the faces of the people on the other side when squatting down. Ah Sheng stood up, and still according to the old method, entrusted a flat shoulder and two baskets of pears to the tofu stall next door. Although the owner of the tofu stall is not Xi Shi, his heart is more beautiful than Xi Shi's appearance, and he has helped keep so many raw pears, but he has not missed even a single one.

Ah Sheng walked straight along the main road to the east, and when he reached the intersection of Henan Road, he should have turned left, but it seemed that he was holding his urine urgently, he suddenly covered his crotch, jumped to Dongrenli on the side of the road, and then walked a few steps against the wall, and walked to the dark place, and then unbuttoned his pants. However, there was no sound of water for a long time, not that he had urinary infarction, but that he didn't take out the dick at all. Ah Sheng's eyes were fixed on the entrance of the alley, and it was not until after a long time that he was sure that no one was coming, and then he re-fastened his pants and walked deeper into Dongrenli.

Dongrenli, which runs north-south, communicates with a horizontal alley, Xirenli, and Ah Sheng comes out of Xirenli, faces south along Henan Road, and walks in the direction of Sima Road.

When you arrive at the fourth horse road, you can be regarded as entering the smoke street willow lane, when the lights are on, it is the beginning of the nightlife, and you can see the Oriental cars and horse-drawn carriages waiting for customers everywhere on the road. Ah Sheng picked a young coachman with long legs and thin body, but his whole body was full of tendon meat, sat on the car, raised his hand into the upper of his shoe, and immediately took out a silver shining ocean, threw it in his hand, and said to the coachman:

"Go to the sixteenth shop, if you run fast, this piece of silver will belong to Nong."

Under the reflection of the lights, his eyes are no longer as wooden as usual, a pair of small eyes are narrowed, his eyes are sharp, and he has a pair of rather naïve big ears, but he reveals a shrewd and capable color in his loyalty.

The rickshaw driver, who was inspired by Yinyang, drove two long legs and ran fast. The distance from the intersection of Henan Road and Fuzhou Road to the 16th shop is more than three miles, and he only runs for ten minutes to get there.

The car stopped in front of the door of a large family, and I saw two lanterns in front of the door each with the word "yellow".

Ah Sheng threw Yinyang to the coachman, walked to the door and patted the knocker a few times, and shouted, "It's me who is back, open the door." ”

A small door opened next to the door, and the door saw him and said, "Yuesheng is back, I won't see Nong for a long time, come in quickly." ”

Ah Sheng stepped into the door and said, "Where's Sister?" Is it in the inner compartment? ”

"In the inner compartment, Mrs. Jin stayed in the house and didn't go out for a day."

Ah Sheng walked towards the back house, all the way to the second gate, the servant woman inside saw him and smiled: "Ouch, the fruit moon is here, where did the wife send you to be happy, and I am reluctant to come back after so long." ”

"Is Sister in the inner compartment? I have something to tell Yi. Ah Sheng ignored the servant's ridicule and asked seriously.

"Mrs. is resting in the small building at the back, her body is a little tired, and she is taking medicine." When the servant woman saw that his expression was serious, she also became serious.

Ah Sheng walked through the second gate and went directly around the main house towards the back garden. He was only fourteen or fifteen years old at this time, and he was not old enough to avoid walking in the back house.

"Sister Guisheng!" Ah Sheng came to the front of the back building and snorted after entering the door.

In the back building, Sister Gui Sheng was lying on the couch swallowing clouds and mist, and when she saw him coming in, she just mumbled and didn't pay much attention to it.

Ah Sheng stood aside obediently, waiting for Sister Ah to finish her fun.

Sister Gui Sheng was born small and colorful, her face was small but her fist was big, her long eyebrows covered her sideburns, her facial features were exquisite, she wore a dragon pearl pressed hair on her dark cloud temples, she was wearing a dark and silver jacket, and she was not wearing a skirt on her lower body, but wearing a pair of royal blue woven gold pants, which made her waist look like a weak willow and frightened wind, and Ying Ying was unbearable. When swallowing, two dimples slightly fainted on the pink cheeks, and the eyes seemed to be open and closed, and the autumn water was transverse between opening and closing. There seems to be some pain in the body, occasionally showing the frowning posture, and it is rare to gather in the spring mountains when the cheeks are frowned. I always feel that she has a misty sideburns, a slender waist, light makeup, and a smile and sorrow.

Ah Sheng didn't dare to look at it anymore after looking at it twice, and turned his head to the garden outside the door and was stunned.

"What's going on with Guangrong Lin?" Sister Gui Sheng asked after having a good time, her voice with a hint of hoarseness. She Su Bai in one bite.

"It's still the same, I'm still staring at the fishing room, looking for that foreigner."

Seeing that Sister Gui Sheng seemed to be thinking about something and didn't answer, Ah Sheng continued:

"Sister, I think I'd better come back, Guanghefeng has nothing to do, the surnamed Liao and a group of subordinates were wiped out this time, only us little guys are left, and we can't find any news if we stay inside."

Sister Gui Sheng shook her head and said, "Now is the time when things are about to change, so if you stay at ease for a while, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

"Sister, do we have to be right with Guangrong Lin? I see that they are acting very hotly this time. So many people said they would kill it, and it was in broad daylight. This kind of outlaw, I think it can be avoided. ”

Sister Gui Sheng raised her eyelids and glanced at him, and said, "I don't know what, it's because they are the hardest bones that they have to be taken away." Now on the beach, only they dare to talk to themselves without our coolies, making so much money every year, but they refuse to leak a drop between their fingers to our locals, by what, one is rich and powerful, and the other is Guangronglin's fast knife. If we don't discount this knife, we won't think about the business of the Guangbang for a day. Looking at the mountains of gold and silver, but I had to eat bran vegetables next to me, what is the meaning of this kind of life? ”

After a pause, she asked again, "Have you inquired about the foreigner?" Why is Guangrong Lin so concerned about this person? ”

"I can't inquire at all, I only know that there is a large bonus on it, one is to find this foreigner, and the other is to find a coachman named Huang Aliu, I heard that he hid in Zhejiang."

"Well, I think it's better to stay in Guanghefeng for a while, and if you don't make progress at the end of the year, you'll come back, and we'll find another way. Especially about the foreigner, you must inquire about it. ”

"Got it." Ah Sheng saw that Sister Gui Sheng had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more.

"I'll go and get someone to prepare the meal first, and then I'll go back after eating the good meal."

"Okay." Ah Sheng responded, he saw that there was a plate of raw pears on the desk, so he said, "Sister, I'll peel a pear for you first." Without waiting for Sister Gui Sheng to answer, she picked one out, took the knife that was placed on the side and sharpened it.

His technique of peeling pears is special, the knife turns, the pears do not move, a knife to the end, the pear skin is constantly circled, this is nothing, the key is the pear he peels, the pear skin is wide and narrow, and there is no trace of pear flesh in the skin.

After peeling the skin, he took a clean plate, put the pear on it, made a few horizontal and vertical strokes with a knife, and then twisted it up with the pear stalk, and the six-petal white and crystal pear blossom bloomed on the plate.

"Sister Nong, don't worry! As long as Nong's words are spoken, I, Du Yuesheng, will definitely help Nong do it! He said.
