Chapter 26: Blank Letterhead
Tang Shao had lunch in a small restaurant in the county seat, and then went home with the black box.
When he walked to the door, Tang Shao was stunned by an old lock hanging on the door. The door was still the same broken door, and an iron lock hung on the door to complement each other. Now Tang Shaofa was stunned because when he went out, he deliberately put the lock on the side, and now it has returned to its most natural appearance.
If you listen closely, you can only hear the breath of one person faintly, and it is not as chaotic as the gangsters. With his mind racing, Tang Shao quickly thought of the identity of the person who came, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl. But before he entered the door, he smoothed out that smile again.
The door opened, and a thin dark man was sitting in a broken chair in the living room.
"You're still chasing after you." Tang Shao said indifferently.
The black man frowned, and said helplessly: "The boss's order, there is no way." I said you can't stop a little bit? ”
"I'm very stopping, it's not normal to go home for the New Year...... You are a crooked nut, maybe you don't understand our Chinese traditions......" Tang Shao made a look of planning to speak at length......
"Young master, don't force me to use violence!" Blacks are sincere.
"You don't dare." Tang Shao grinned.
"Don't tell the young master, the reason why I didn't use violence against you is just because I am abiding by my duty as a subordinate. My Father...... The owner has given me enough freedom. I'm here to pick you up. ”
"Go back, where do you go back?"
"You have no right to know, this is my violence." The black man darkened his face and touched his chest silently. Tang Shao knew that there must be a black jade plaque hanging from his clothes.
Realizing that he was threatened, Tang Shao's momentum weakened: "Wait for me for two more days." ”
"Just one day, those thugs will come back." The black man snorted coldly, unceremoniously exposed Tang Shao's little calculations and added a weight: "I picked up Miss Ouyang by the way." ”
"Where is she?"
The black man's eyes drifted into the room.
Tang Shao walked into the room with the box. He didn't hear Ouyang Beiyan's heartbeat outside the door just now, and now he was so upset that he couldn't hear Ouyang Beiyan's condition clearly.
But when he opened the door, Ouyang Beiyan was sitting quietly, his eyes were clear, and he was not injured. On the contrary, Ouyang Beiyan was a little surprised when she saw Tang Shao: "What's wrong with your nose?" ”
Tang Shao touched his nose and touched the blood scum in his hand, but he immediately showed a sunny smile: "It's okay, I fought with someone." ”
"Is that the one who just came?" Ouyang Beiyan's expression also relaxed a lot.
"Someone just came?"
"Well, there should be a few. was beaten away by Ah Hu. ”
"Hu?" Tang Shao was suspicious, but immediately understood that he was talking about black people. Tang Shao shook his head: "It's another group of people, they robbed my family's ancestral sandalwood box, and I grabbed it back." ”
Ouyang Beiyan let out an "oh", his eyes were on the black wood sunspot in Tang Shao's arms, and he looked quite serious: "This ...... It seems like it's just a pine box. ”
Tang Shao ignored it, put the box on the table, glanced back at the direction of the door vigilantly, and felt that the black man outside the door did not move, so he unscrewed the small lock on the box that seemed quite refined: "Maybe the things in here are worth a sandalwood box." ”
Ouyang Beiyan also leaned over his little head curiously, waiting for the answer to be revealed.
The box opened, and a stack of envelopes was covered
The headband was tied and lay neatly inside. Tang Shao took out those letters, and pressed a few pieces of letter paper with obvious creases underneath. Tang Shaoxian glanced at the content of the letterhead, in English, standard handwritten English, and the curls were drawn as if he was painting. Looking at the content again, Tang Shao only glanced at it hastily twice and folded the letter again. is completely a prodigal love letter from a literary and artistic youth, Tang Shao, who has been in love, feels blushing when he sees it.
"What is written?" Ouyang Beiyan's reaction was half a beat slower, and when he turned his face over, Tang Shao had already folded the letter.
Tang Shao shook his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just some poems." ”
Putting down the letter, Tang Shao carefully untied the head rope, and probably counted the more than fifty letters. Inside was a blank piece of letter, on which only a date of September 12 was written in the corner of the letter, in English. Tang Shao picked up the letterhead, put it under his nose and sniffed it carefully a few times, and then gently twisted the letterhead: "There is no smell of potions, and the paper is also ordinary letterhead." ”
Putting the first letter back into the envelope, Tang Shao opened the second letter again, but the second letter was cleaner than the first letter, and the two dates were not written. When I opened the third letter, it was still a blank piece of paper...... Next, Tang Shao pulled out more than fifty blank sheets of paper from more than fifty letters. Tang Shao turned the letter backwards and read it several times, but after reading it, there was still no result.
"Some of the letterheads, although they can be seen, have no pattern, and may just be accidental." Tang Shao frowned and continued to talk to himself: "Could it be that the letterhead with words has been put away separately?" Probably, why did the person who wrote the letter stuff an extra blank piece of paper, could it be for the reply? Why is there no redundant credible envelope, is there still a special person to deliver the letter? ”
Tang Shao remembered to look at the envelope again, only to find that Ouyang Beiyan was already holding an envelope and was distracted. Tang Shao didn't bother, waited quietly for her to come back to her senses, and put down the envelope.
"The letter was written by my uncle, and I know this font. And these envelopes are also my family, because my father has his own company, so the envelopes and stationery at home also have the company logo. Ouyang Beiyan's eyes suddenly turned red, and he picked up the first letter: "Only this envelope is an ordinary post office envelope." ”
"That is, what could have happened on September 12?"
"Don't think about it, in the early morning of September 12 twenty years ago, it was the day when my house caught fire."
When Tang Shao packed up the box, there was also a sound of footsteps outside the door, and there were always more than a dozen people listening to the sound.
Tang Shao and the black man walked out of the door and saw a young man with a plaster cast in his right hand leading more than a dozen people who were tall and thin, but all of them had fierce faces, towards Tang Shao's house.
Tang Shao looked at the sun in the sky, it was probably only two o'clock. But come to think of it, the bus from the city just arrived at about this time.
"You ......" The black man was just about to speak, but Tang Shao had already jumped into the crowd, and kicked back the disabled young man who was leading the way with his foot.
The people who came were all after a battle, and as soon as they saw Tang Shao's background, they immediately adjusted their state. He took out all kinds of weapons from his clothes and scolded and pounced on Tang Shao. The narrow corridor suddenly fell into chaos.
The black man shook his head in frustration, he felt like a babysitter taking care of a naughty bear child, and his heart rate was haggard. But the current situation, you can't avoid it. So he could only grit his teeth and do it.
The brutal invective soon turned into screams, and finally the menacing thugs lay on the ground.
The black man didn't want to provoke such a right and wrong again, so he finally took Tang Shao and Ouyang Beiyan with both soft and hard measures
Leaving the small building and getting into an off-road vehicle waiting outside the forest farm compound.
When the car drove into the county, it was seen by Tang Shao, and he originally wanted to cause chaos when the black man didn't react, and then look for an opportunity to break the game. But he tossed around the garbage dump, but it was too late, and now he could only give in under the double threat of the black man and his black stone. got into the car, Tang Shao found that even the driver was a ruthless character, but his face was white, and he was also silent, giving people a sense of majesty that no one was close to.
The car was soon onto the only undulating road. But when they were about to leave the city, a convoy of vehicles was generally not of high grade, giving people the impression that they were either scrapped or second-hand.
The off-road vehicle leaned on the side of the road, waiting to cross by the wrong car with the other party. But the convoy came to an abrupt stop as it approached the black SUV. A large gold chain surrounded a group of younger brothers.
The car window was knocked open by the younger brother, the big gold chain was holding a cigarette butt, and his eyes were slanted to the direction of the sky: "You just hit my little brother." ”
The driver's uncle didn't speak, and looked ahead indifferently. Tang Shao had already spoken happily in his heart, if he hadn't seen the threatening eyes handed over by the black man, he really wanted to reply happily: "It was Lao Tzu who did it." ”
No one spoke, and the roof of the car was slapped hard by a big gold chain: "Talking to you." ”
The black man had no choice but to speak: "It's all a misunderstanding, the eldest brother raises his noble hand." ”
The big gold chain's eyes suddenly dimmed, but because his eyes were looking at the sky, the younger brothers didn't notice it.
The big gold chain hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said, "Since it was a misunderstanding, let's go." ”
The gangsters were surprised, but the big gold chain thought that he was also a ruthless guy to his own people, and everyone's protest stopped at looking at each other.
Seeing the black off-road leave, the big gold chain suddenly shook his head: "Hey! Who let them go? ”
The crowd looked back at each other with strange looks.
“tmd! Lao Tzu asks you something! ”
A little brother who is usually quite favored nodded and stepped forward: "It's you, boss, open the net." ”
"Who tm face, my brother was beaten and broke a leg by them, are you tm to be a fool of me?"
The younger brothers hurriedly turned their eyes to the side, for fear that the boss would see the way they looked at the fool.
"Why are you stunned, let me get in the car and chase it!"
The big gold chain woke up a group of younger brothers with an angry roar. The second-hand convoy immediately took to the road in dust.
It would have been difficult for a second-hand car to catch up with a brand-new off-road vehicle, but the broken car still quickly caught up.
Looking at the yellow dust rolling behind him, the black man glanced at Tang Shao hatefully, asked the driver to stop, and got out of the car himself after instructing him to meet in the city.
The off-road vehicle continued to bump all the way, and Tang Shao's mood also fluctuated all the way. Tang Shao is still very confused about the future, but there are some expectations in addition to confusion. At least he is now approaching the truth, but he doesn't know how much the truth will help him to find Tang Rou. Moreover, now he has superfluous expectations for his parents.
The SUV drove all the way into the city, but surprisingly did not stop, but crossed the city and continued to drive forward...... Tang Shao wondered, could it be that the black man's instructions just now used some riddles? Is there any problem with meeting in the city?
Tang Shao wanted to ask the driver, but after looking up and interlacing the driver's cold eyes from the rearview mirror, Tang Shao still gave up his thoughts.
