Year 2011

When Yun Yeyao asked again, Aunt Tao refused to say anything, probably because she hid all the secrets she wanted to say in that umbrella, so she had nothing to say now.

Yun Yeyao guessed that Aunt Tao might not dare to say it, so she provided him with evidence in disguise, but unfortunately at that time, he didn't react.

Yun Yeyao regretted a little, he said to Aunt Tao: "Auntie, it's okay, now Xiaomeng is on this island, as long as we follow him, no one dares to do anything to us!" ”

"You mean your tall, handsome detective, right? Did he really figure out the situation? And, how do you know who's going to do something to us? ”

Aunt Tao's question was a little sharp, Yun Yeyao couldn't help but didn't answer for a while, he looked at the middle-aged woman's face suspiciously, but he couldn't see any clues.

At this time, a distant greeting came from behind them: "Xiao Yao, are you okay?" If the problem is solved, come back as soon as possible! ”

It was Xie Yunmeng, Yun Yeyao hurriedly replied: "The problem has been solved, let's go back!" ”

Between the two of them asking and answering, Aunt Tao had already taken a step back and walked back, and when she went back, she was going to throw the things in her palm into the lake.

Yun Yeyao followed her closely this time, not ignoring any detail, he quickly grabbed Aunt Tao's hand clenched into a fist, and said to her, "Don't throw anything away, at least let me take a look before throwing it away." ”

Aunt Tao turned around and smiled at Yun Yeyao, this smile seemed to be relieved, and she said, "You have finally become smarter, cute little actor." ”

After speaking, her palm opened, and something fell into Yun Yeyao's open palm, it was not something she had seen before, but a small piece of something like algae, and when Yun Yeyao touched it, her palm was immediately dyed red.

"What is this?" Yun Ye asked.

"It is a gluttonous algae, which can be used as a dye, and can also be used as a human mental trance, and its taste is very special, so don't smell it."

When the words of this sentence fell, Aunt Tao sighed almost inaudibly, and seemed to sigh the depression in her heart together, for the first time in so many years, she felt a little relaxed.

I don't know if Mr. Actor understands what she means, anyway, Yun Yeyao clenched his hands into fists like Aunt Tao, stuffed them into his pockets and said, "Don't worry!" ”

These four words flew into Aunt Tao's heart like a firefly, and the two of them returned to the board room for a while, and Aunt Tao asked, "Do you want to hear it, how is the Chongming umbrella made?" ”

"Of course I want to hear it." Yun Yeyao immediately replied: "If you don't mind, we can go back when we're done, it's okay with Xiao Meng." ”

"Really? Aren't you afraid that your confidant will be subdued by the people of the island alone? ”

"Don't be afraid, because they don't know my little Meng." Yun Yeyao smiled, this was a smile from the heart, until now, he had not seen anyone who could subdue Xie Yunmeng.

Aunt Tao shook her head slightly, she felt that this young man was too confident, there were so many strong workers on the island, if they were all accomplices of the murderer, Xie Yunmeng alone was definitely not their opponent.

But she didn't say it, and now she just wanted to finish what she wanted to say quickly.

"There are two kinds of heavy lantern umbrellas, one is the silk umbrella we made, a variety of colors, and some delicate patterns, the umbrella bone and the umbrella stand are actually hollow, which contains Lao Nuo's special spices."

"Don't get me wrong, this spice is non-toxic and harmless, just to increase people's love for umbrellas, and to be honest, it's about the same as incense in the toilet."

"Our daily work is just to make umbrella bones, fill spices, and then help the island with some chores, and the reason why we people come to the island is that we are homeless outside, so we come here to enjoy a comfort, at least a bowl of rice to eat."

"I came here 10 years ago, and the work I did hasn't changed, but what I didn't tell them was that I was a fungus examiner before I came."

"Then your job should be very popular, why don't you give up and do it?" Yun Ye asked.

"For the sake of hurry, boy, shall we not ask questions?" Aunt Tao said: "It can be regarded as for the safety of your confidant." ”

"Oh!" Yun Yeyao obediently closed her mouth and continued to listen.

Aunt Tao held on to the railing with her hand and slowly moved forward, while continuing: "Because they don't know my past work, they always let me sail with the ship. Gradually, I noticed that the umbrellas on the bow of the cargo ship were strange, they were always dyed fiery red, and the color did not fall off in the water at all. ”

"These huge umbrellas are the second type of heavy light umbrella, at first I was just confused about the color, I didn't think much about the others, I couldn't measure any answers without professional tools."

"And I didn't want them to know me too well, so I kept silent and didn't say anything about my doubts. Later, an even stranger thing happened, that is, the big umbrella on the bow of the ship was changed too often, and every time the cargo sailed, after arriving at the destination city, Lao Nuo would bring workers to repair the ship, and the repair process would not let us see. ”

"I often find something different on the bow of the boat when I come back to the ship, but I can't say why. Until one time, one of the boats I was on capsized, and when we all fell into the water, I could clearly see from the bottom that the bottom half of the big umbrella was gone. ”

"Disappeared out of thin air, I quickly poked out of the water and silently climbed onto the boat, there was no damage to the rest of the boat, I think it was because of the missing part of the umbrella surface that it capsized."

"I thought the lower part of the umbrella was the hull, but it was only attached to the hull and could be removed quickly if necessary."

"How, exactly, is this going on? I don't know, because I've never been involved in the production process, and you have to ask the patient lying in the fourth room of the hotel, and it is said that she used to be the only person here who could draw an umbrella, until she was not in good health, and then she gave the painting method to the current little orange, the little orange you have never seen, and she is just a stupid girl in the board room, and she does the same work as us. ”

The topic ended here, and Aunt Tao didn't say anything more. Yun Yeyao waited for a few seconds and asked, "Then what's the matter with these algae?" ”

"These are my guesses, I once asked a friend of mine outside the island to collect these things at the bottom of the big lake and let her take them back for inspection, and she came to the conclusion that this algae is very dangerous, not only will it rob other creatures in the lake of food, but it also reproduces very quickly, which can easily cause the food chain to break and other organisms to die."
