Chapter 282: Mei Fangfei
"The evening breeze blows gently and flutters my clothes
Summer is gone
The rush of time makes me feel sad
Reminiscing about the beautiful old days
A gust of wind blew gently into my heart
That's how you came into my heart
How much care to pay step by step in the recall
The wind told me I needed to be strong
Blow, blow, let the wind blow
Dry the tears that glistened in your eyes
Blow, blow, let the wind blow
Sad who you are in the wind
……”
This is "The Season of the Wind" sung by the famous Hong Kong singer Xu Xiaofeng in the late 70s.
Fan Cheng is a native of Guangzhou, and when he heard this song, he also heard that this song was not Xu Xiaofeng's own voice.
After listening to Cantonese in Guangzhou for a few months, under normal circumstances, Zhao Leiming can vaguely hear a few words, and for some reason, he can almost understand the lyrics of this song.
The meaning expressed in the lyrics, Zhao Leiming heard a kind of nostalgia, a kind of reminiscence, a kind of irreversible helplessness about the past later evolved into an open-mindedness.
The beautiful melody, coupled with the girl's voice full of charming magnetism, interprets the song perfectly, and the artistic conception makes Zhao Leiming deeply touched.
The plot of memories flashed in his mind, including Song Qingtian, Zhao Guangwu, Zhao Juelun, Zhao Gengju, Yao Xiaotao, and his mother who had never met......
Following the singing, he saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl singing on the side of the street, and he couldn't help but cast his eyes on this girl.
The girl is thin and tall, wearing red clothes, with a beautiful face, cold eyes, and stubbornness between her eyebrows.
In this era, you can't see such a scene of singing alone on the street in the mainland, and you can't hear this popular music from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The moving singing, the curious scene of singing on the street, Zhao Leiming couldn't help but walk forward and listen quietly beside the girl.
The girl sang over and over again, observing Zhao Leiming, seeing that he listened carefully, her eyes were a little distracted, and her expression was completely immersed in the artistic conception of the song.
She understood that the man in front of her understood what she was saying.
Mountains and rivers are high and rivers, and bosom friends are hard to find, and the girl suddenly has a good impression of Zhao Leiming in her heart.
When she was done, the girl smiled at him.
"Does it sound good?"
"Sounds good."
Zhao Leiming smiled faintly.
The girl asked, "Listen to you, you are a mainlander, can you understand what I sing?" ”
"I can hear a little bit of meaning, and I don't understand everything."
Zhao Leiming said as he took out some money from his pocket and handed it to the girl.
The girl smiled: "I used to ask for money for singing, but today I don't need money, because I want to participate in TVB's Hong Kong Rookie Singing Contest, and I am practicing on the street." ”
"You sing so well, you will definitely get good results."
"Thank you. If you like to listen, you can support me, my name is Mei Fangfei. ”
"Mei Fangfei, the singing is good, and the name is good. It's a pity that I have something to do, and I'm going to leave Hong Kong in a few days. ”
"Then I'll sing you another song, what song do you like to listen to?"
Zhao Leiming thought to himself, Hong Kong is different from the mainland, and Mei Fangfei, who he likes to listen to, can't sing, so he smiled and said: "I like to listen to whatever song you like to sing." ”
Mei Fangfei sang him another song "Spring Rain Scimitar".
"Spring Rain Scimitar" is the theme song of the costume martial arts TV series "Sword God" by Hong Kong Television Broadcasts Limited.
In Mei Fangfei's chanting, Zhao Leiming seemed to see the loneliness of the chivalrous man standing in the moonlight in the pride of the rivers and lakes, the cold blade on the blade in the flying iron sword under the shadow of the sword.
At this moment, Mei Fangfei is completely a sassy and heroic heroine, full of pride and delicate thoughts.
Music knows no borders, and there are no language barriers.
Zhao Leiming's expression made Mei Fangfei feel once again that this man could "understand" her singing.
Han Chong and Fan Cheng were stunned by Zhao Leiming's expression.
Zhao Leiming had some kind of nerves, he was worried about finding Abner, and he went to listen to people singing for some reason, and he was so fascinated by it.
Han Zhong shouted: "Zhao Leiming, it's not early, let's go back and rest first." ”
Zhao Leiming came back to his senses and said goodbye to Mei Fangfei.
Han Zhong asked angrily, "Zhao Leiming, don't you think that other girls are beautiful and fascinated." ”
Zhao Leiming knew that Han Chong was reminding him that except for Song Qingtian, he couldn't be half-hearted.
Fan Yu didn't understand the meaning, his heart was sour, and his eyes kept staring at Zhao Leiming.
The four of them went back to discuss, tomorrow Fan Cheng and his sisters went to a relative's house to ask for help, and Zhao Leiming and Han Chong went to a nearby police station to inquire about Abner's news.
On the second day, Zhao Leiming and Han Zhong went to the police station under their jurisdiction to inquire about the tragic incident at home of British lawyer Abner 12 years ago.
Before Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the official language was English, and the police station received them with a British police officer.
From the late 1980s to the early 1990s, Huaxia introduced English proficiency tests in full-time universities as a requirement for choosing English as a compulsory course for the first foreign language.
When Zhao Leiming was in school, he had just studied for two years and could understand some everyday language slightly, but he could only occasionally understand a few words when asked by a British policeman.
Needless to say, Han Chong's grades were a mess when he was studying, and he was even far away from cultural knowledge classes when he arrived in the army.
The two of them were sweating in a hurry, but they didn't say what they were going to do, and the British policeman shrugged helplessly at them, spread his hands and let them leave.
The two walked out of the police station dejectedly, and Zhao Leiming saw Mei Fangfei hurrying towards him at a glance.
Mei Fangfei was still wearing red clothes, but it was different from last night's style, she smiled like a flower, "I met you again." ”
Zhao Leiming nodded and responded with a smile.
Mei Fangfei asked: "I see that the two of you came out of the police station sweating profusely, did you encounter any trouble?" ”
Han Zhong said impatiently: "It's too troublesome, those blue-eyed and high-nosed people can't understand what they're calling at all." ”
Zhao Leiming explained, and Mei Fangfei smiled and said, "I can help you ask." ”
"Thank you then, Mei Fangfei."
"By the way, I don't know your name yet."
"Zhao Leiming."
"Han Zhong."
Mei Fangfei enthusiastically led them into the police station again.
Mei Fangfei listened to Zhao Leiming's narration over and over again, while asking the police in fluent English, after ten minutes, she probably understood clearly, Mei Fangfei snapped her fingers at them boldly, quite a man's demeanor.
When she came out of the police station, Mei Fangfei told them about the situation she had inquired about.
Abner spent more than a month in the hospital after 12 years of death, while his daughter remained unconscious.
In order to treat his daughter, Abner returned to England with her.
A year later, because of the murder, Abner returned to England once, and then left not long after.
Zhao Leiming asked: "Was the murder in Abner's house caused by the Black Dragon Gang?" ”
Mei Fangfei showed a puzzled look between her eyebrows, "How do you know?" ”
"I guess, I've heard in Guangzhou that the Black Dragon Gang is rampant in Hong Kong."
Mei Fangfei's expression returned to the same as before, "The British policeman said that later the case was investigated clearly, and it was a small leader of the Black Dragon Gang who made him lose a lawsuit in order to take revenge on Abner, so he led someone to poison them. ”
Zhao Leiming thought to himself, as long as it was done by the Black Dragon Gang, it must have something to do with what Zhao Juelun put in the bank safe, and what little boss to take revenge on was just to hide the true purpose of the Black Dragon Gang, looking for a substitute for the dead ghost.
"Hasn't Ebner been back to Hong Kong since?"
Mei Fangfei shook her head and said: "The police don't know either, after all, Abner is a free identity, and there is no need to file with the police station when entering and leaving Hong Kong." ”
"Thank you for the delay."
Mei Fangfei slapped her forehead, "Oh no, I almost forgot about business!" ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and went into the police station like the wind, and Zhao Leiming disappeared before he could say hello.
Finding nothing again, Zhao Leiming said to himself, "I don't know if Fan Cheng can find anything." ”
Han Zhong said: "Then let's go back and wait for Fan Cheng's news." ”
How could Zhao Leiming, who was anxious, sit back and wait for the news, and proposed to go to Abner's old residence to inquire.
As soon as the two were about to leave, they were stopped by someone shouting.
"You two mainland boys, I have something to ask you?"
When the two turned around, they saw that it was a woman of about twenty, dressed in a turquoise dress, her long hair was permed into wavy curls, tied into a ponytail, very beautiful, with a dazzling necklace around her neck, and a fierce aura at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, which made people have a sense of distance that they did not dare to approach.
The woman was followed by two burly bodyguards, a Hong Kong and an Indian.
Zhao Leiming asked, "You called us?" ”
The woman smiled coquettishly: "Who are you not called?" Are there any other mainland boys on this street? ”
Han Chong felt uncomfortable, "Are you a great Hong Kong person?" Aren't you a descendant of China? What mainland boy, is it possible for me to call you a Hong Kong girl? ”
The woman widened her eyes and raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and the two bodyguards behind her rushed forward.
Han Chong also rubbed his fists, Zhao Leiming stopped him, and whispered: "This is not the mainland, let's be cautious, we don't know her, I just ask what she asks, I don't need to do anything for a sentence or two." ”
The woman smiled and asked the bodyguard to step back, looked at Zhao Leiming, felt a little familiar in a trance, and said with a smile: "You mainland boy is quite acquainted." Then let me ask you, what is the relationship between you and Mei Fangfei? ”
Zhao Leiming said truthfully: "I met her last night, and I saw her singing on the street. ”
The woman said disdainfully: "I know that this street girl is not a good thing, she was coquettish on the street again last night, did she seduc/seduce you?" ”
Zhao Leiming was unhappy when he heard this, "This young lady, please be respectful to people." ”
"I just praised you for your acquaintance, and I don't understand the rules in a blink of an eye, it seems that Mei Fangfei really seduced you, I sang to you in the middle of the night last night, and I don't know what to do in the middle of the night tonight, no wonder you face her as soon as you speak, this street girl is really capable."
Zhao Leiming suppressed the anger in his heart, "This young lady, please respect yourself, don't splash dirty water on people casually." ”
The woman snorted, and said even more violently: "That Mei Fangfei's means are really good, and the man she hooked is so desperate for her." ”
The more Han Zhong heard this, the more unpleasant it became, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.
The two bodyguards behind the woman also walked out with their heads held high.
The woman suddenly laughed: "Just scolding the street girl, I almost forgot to get down to business, I tried my best to finally find evidence of this street girl's affair, you two mainland boys, cooperate with me to go to the newspaper to expose Mei Fangfei's scandal to reporters, I will give you 10,000 Hong Kong dollars each." ”
It turned out that this woman wanted to use them and make up lies to slander Mei Fangfei's reputation.
"This young lady, we won't do anything to slander people."
The woman raised her eyebrows and glared at Zhao Leiming angrily, and threatened: "If you two mainland boys dare not agree, I will let you live better than death, and after three days of torture, I will throw your bones into the sea to feed the fish." ”
Zhao Leiming had never seen such a despicable femme fatale, and in the face of her vicious threat, he couldn't help but burst through his chest with anger.
The battle is imminent.
In an emergency, a policeman came out of the police station and shouted at them, "What are you doing! Want to get into a fight in front of the police station? ”
The woman's face changed slightly, and she called out to the two bodyguards, "I'm in a special period now, it's best not to alarm the police to get into trouble, let's go first, and then go back to Mei Fangfei to settle accounts." ”
The three of them turned a corner, and the Hong Kong man in the bodyguard said, "Miss, do you feel that the mainland boy we are talking to is very similar to ......." ”
Zhao Leiming's appearance immediately flashed in the woman's mind, and she felt a little familiar, and when she heard the bodyguard say this, she couldn't help but be shocked.
"Exactly the same!"
