Chapter 10 See Xie Xiuyun again
The residence that Hunter found was a small Shikumen courtyard with a two-story building, which was originally the outer courtyard of a Zhejiang businessman, and it was used to hide the gold house. As a result, I don't know who the Zhejiang businessman provoked, and the whole family was imprisoned, and only the outer room in Shanghai survived. Hunter, who got the news, "kindly" helped her immigrate to the United States, and the house was owned by Hunter and now belongs to Zhao Zhi.
The floor space of the house is not large, and the entrance is a square patio. On both sides are the left and right wings. Directly opposite is the guest room with long windows floor-to-ceiling. The guest hall is four meters wide and six meters deep, and is usually used as a place for receiving guests and banquets. There are also several rooms on both sides of the guest hall, with a wooden escalator leading to the second floor at the back, and a backyard with a well. There are also two low houses in the backyard that are the kitchen and storage. The front and back walls of the entire house are about the same height as the front wall, forming a nearly enclosed space. Therefore, although the whole house is in the middle of the city. But it has the advantage of high walls and deep courtyards, and quiet places in the middle of noisy.
Zhao Zhi is very satisfied with this house, and there is a hidden back door in the backyard, living here, it is not easy to be blocked and retreated. Zhao Zhi plans to wait for Hunter to send the things he needs, and then find some materials and make some arrangements in the house, so that one day he can save his life when he is in danger.
After working for several days, Zhao Zhi was able to regulate the things sent by Hunter. In the living room and bedroom, Zhao Zhi made a lot of dark grids, and the weapons were hidden inside, and Zhao Zhi could get the weapons at any time if he stayed in that room. This is a habit that Zhao Zhi has developed in his previous life, and his weapon never leaves more than 20 centimeters in his hand.
At seven o'clock in the evening, at the front door of the International Hotel, where pedestrians were weaving, Yue Xinhai, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, stood there wearing a coat and looked at his watch from time to time. He raised his wrist and looked at his watch, it was already past time, and the person who joined the joint had not yet appeared. Could it be that something happened or he had been exposed, Yue Xinhai looked around, as if he didn't find anything abnormal.
"Sir." A dirty little beggar ran over with a note in his hand, "A big sister asked me to give you this note, and said you would give me a reward." ”
Yue Xinhai was stunned for a moment, looked at the little beggar's somewhat nervous expression, clenched the small note in his hand, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and took out a silver dollar and replaced the small note. opened the note, which had an address and a few words written on it, "No. 8 has defected, go to No. 10 to hide" Yue Xinhai calmly tore up the note, and slowly walked along the street dejectedly, looking like he was out of love. Walking out of a street, Yue Xinhai made sure that he was not followed behind him, so he was relieved to call a rickshaw and go to the address on the note.
As everyone knows, when Yue Xinhai stood at the door of the International Hotel, he was targeted by at least a dozen spies, and even the rickshaw driver called by Yue Xinhai was pretended to be a spy. In the early hours of the morning, a fierce burst of gunfire suddenly rang out in Shanghai's public concession, followed by the sound of martial law sirens, and the military and police everywhere went crazy and set up checkpoints everywhere in the urban area, blocking all roads leading to the outside world in the public concession. In the French Concession where Zhao Zhi lived, a foreign patrol led a team to conduct a house-to-house search.
Zhao Zhi was glad that Hunter had just brought some of his foreign men down to mix rice today, if he was really searched by the patrols in his own house, although he knew that they couldn't find anything, it would be very troublesome. In his previous life, Zhao Zhi liked to make some food for himself in his spare time. The last time Hunter came to deliver something, he had eaten fried rice made by Zhao Zhi, and he always shouted that Zhao Zhi, who had moved to a new home, was treated.
When Hunter and the others were sent out of the French Concession, it was already full of stars, and it was a charming night with a bright moon shining. With a house and making friends, Zhao Zhi, who was in a good mood, was strolling alone on the street, but when he just walked to the intersection of his house, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the alley on the left, Zhao Zhi quickly pulled out a gun and stood against the wall, this black shadow was the cheongsam beauty Xie Xiuyun that he had seen in the brilliant casino that day.
"How are you?" Zhao Zhi was very surprised, this woman was dressed even more exaggerated today, she was actually wearing a black tight silk dress, a pair of black fast boots under her feet, and her long hair was also covered by a black ribbon plate, as if she was a chivalrous woman who helped the world and served the people. Xie Xiuyun's proud body curves were exaggerated by the tight-fitting black silk clothes, which made Zhao Zhi, who had never found a woman in this era, full of eyes.
"Was the gentleman surprised? Remember me? Xie Xiuyun's face was unusually pale in the moonlight, and there were already some fine beads of sweat on his forehead. Zhao Zhi caught a trace of pain from her eyes, saw the fine sweat on her forehead, and asked in a deep voice, "Are you injured?" ”
Although Xie Xiuyun had a hint of surprise in his eyes, he nodded when he saw the gun in Zhao Zhi's hand, "It's just a small injury, it's not in the way." Xie Xiuyun gritted her teeth and said. Zhao Zhi nodded, and stared at Xie Xiuyun deeply with scorching eyes, it's strange if it's not in the way, his face is white and papery, how much blood does it have to be shed?
"Let's go, go to me, and I'll show you the wounds." Zhao Zhi stuffed the gun back under his armpit, and didn't help Xie Xiuyun, but just walked in front to lead the way. The two walked one after the other, Xie Xiuyun's legs were obviously inconvenient when he walked, and it seemed that he was injured in his legs, Zhao Zhi frowned and didn't speak.
This is a woman with strong determination, and she doesn't like what others give her, her surname is very stubborn, and Zhao Zhi learned from her conversation just now. It seems that she has encountered something that she can't solve, and her injury is the best illustration that Zhao Zhi will not meet, but he believes that Xie Xiuyun is not a bad person by virtue of his relationship with Xie Xiuyun.
After only walking out for more than ten meters, Xie Xiuyun finally snorted in pain, and his injured leg could no longer be lifted. Zhao Zhi, who had been paying attention, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Do you still have to hold on?" Don't you want me to help you? ”
"Don't, I can do it myself" Xie Xiuyun had a look of chagrin in her eyes, and she thought that Zhao Zhi was laughing at her. After barely walking a few meters, beads of sweat the size of beans finally slipped from between the foreheads, and his right leg trembled non-stop, and his eyes were black, and Xie Xiuyun almost fell. When she opened her eyes again, she was shocked to find that she was lying in Zhao Zhi's arms, all of which only happened between breaths.
"What are you doing? Put me down" Xie Xiuyun's pale face flushed, and Zhao Zhi's strong masculine aura made her breathe heavily. Zhao Zhi just smiled, stopped talking, and walked like a fly and soon returned to his home. Putting Xie Xiuyun on the bed in the guest room, Zhao Zhicai asked, "Your face tells me that if you bleed again, you will die." So please tell me, where are your injuries? I'll treat you."
"Ah, my injury is not very serious, do you have any painkillers, just give me a little" Seeing that Zhao Zhi rolled up his sleeves to check his wound, Xie Xiuyun, who was lying down, immediately sat up in fright, and directly wanted to knock Zhao Zhi out of the room.
