Chapter 91: Receiving an Anonymous Letter

The captain prepared his dagger and pistol and sat on the couch waiting for the enemy. He kept imagining the situation in his mind: "Maybe Yaqin was lying on the bench reading a book, and Yapun squatted in front of the door for a while, and then began to doze off. The villain took the opportunity to knock Yapeng on the back of the head, and only in this way could he knock the giant unconscious. The thugs were afraid that he would wake up, so they stabbed him again before entering the house. Before Yaqin could call for help, the rope was already in her throat. The wounded soldier on duty did not see the thug, then he must have climbed to the second floor from the outside, and it was impossible for him to go up the front stairs. There was a fire escape at the back of the maid's house, from where he must have climbed up, and from here he could pass through the kitchen to the back door and escape from there. However, after dark, the back door is locked, so this person must also have a lily key.

The actions of the enemy kept coming to the captain's mind. When will he be? Where did it come from? The captain flipped through the books for a while, and wrote a diary for a while, but in fact, he was concentrating on the enemy's movements.

Will they stick their guns in through the cracks in the window and shoot at me, like last time? He looked at the window, which was all tightly closed. Will it be shot through the glass from the outside? By the way, you have to pretend that you don't know what to do, otherwise, the enemy won't come. So, he pretended to be fine, yawned deliberately, and had a cigarette in his mouth, but his eyes and ears were always on high alert. But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement around at all

Now, try pretending to be sleeping! The captain extinguished the lamp and collapsed on the bed. In the darkness, you can only rely on hearing. I heard only the sound of the clock moving softly, and besides, there was silence, and an hour, two hours passed. No, I'm afraid the enemy has already found out. As he was thinking this, a rustling sound suddenly came to his ears, and he looked up smartly. At this time, nothing can be heard.

It's someone who is moving. He didn't dare to relax and continue to wait...... it was dawn! The captain woke up suddenly, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, when did he really fall asleep? He hurriedly got up and looked around the room, but found no suspicious signs. What was the sound last night? Odd! Did someone sneak up to the window and snooze in?

He decided to check the window. This is a room on the second floor, visible from the window downwards, with a protruding stone eaves connecting between the first and second floors. It is entirely possible for a nimble man to climb up the second-floor window along the stone eaves. There are also dripping pipes that can be climbed up as well.

There is a high probability of climbing up from the yard. The captain thought about walking as he could, and inadvertently arrived at the door of Sean's old man's room, where there were also two wounded soldiers on duty.

"Is the old man in there?"

"Yes, he's staying inside, it's quiet, the door is locked."

"Open the door!"

The captain walked into the room, and saw the old man standing motionless, not saying a word, with a pipe in his mouth, the fire in which had been extinguished.

Perhaps the thugs would take advantage of the old man's madness to hide in this room, and the captain examined the room carefully. No one was found, but a roll of lead pipe resembling a gas pipe, a rope ladder, and a small portable lamp were found hidden in the closet. It's strange, I just searched with security a few days ago, and I didn't find any of these things at that time! Suddenly, a question flashed through his mind, maybe the thugs knew that the old man was crazy, and took the opportunity to hide the tools here.

Old man Sean slowly moved to the window, took something out of a thick cardboard box, and held it in his arms. The captain stepped forward to see that it was a wreath with a label on it, which read: November 15, 1937.

This is the twentieth wreath, and it is being sent to the grave. The old man, though completely insane, still remembered the two men in the grave. Presumably, he wanted to take this wreath to the grave and show his determination to take revenge on the murdered souls......

Thinking of this, the captain was deeply moved by the old man's loyalty to his father, and tears could not help but burst into his eyes. Yes, isn't November 15 tomorrow? Ah, this good old man, until this time, still hated his father's enemies deeply.

"Sean, thank you, you're going to the grave to deliver a wreath, aren't you? Tomorrow, Yaqin and I will go too. The captain took the old man's wrinkled hand, and his heart was filled with gratitude.

In the evening of that day, Director Chen came to the ancient house: "Look, this is an anonymous letter I received......

The captain took it and looked at it, and it readβ€”

Mr. Chen:

Someone is going to smuggle 1,800 bags of gold nuggets abroad tomorrow night, so please be on your guard.

A patriot

"Hmm, this person deliberately changed his handwriting, who is this? What does he want to do?"

"Nothing is known. However, after looking for so long, I still haven't seen the shadow of the gold nuggion, and I thought it had been shipped abroad, but who knew that I received such an anonymous letter with a deliberate change in handwriting, which was really strange. There must be something unusual about this, perhaps to divert our attention elsewhere and then take advantage of the opportunity to do evil and engage in new schemes. ”

Director Chen muttered to himself, thinking deeply about this matter.

"Could it be that Xie Jiefu's four people made a name for themselves?"

"Impossible. They have already been arrested, but maybe they have escaped accomplices who play this kind of trick. In short, all that needs to be done now is to interrogate them and force them to confess everything. ”

Director Chen is gone.

......Tomorrow night, tomorrow, November 15, our parents were killed on this day, and the other party smuggled gold nuggets, why did they set this day instead? Or is it a coincidence, purely accidental? Regardless of it, Dad's death day is tomorrow, and I will call Yaqin to go to the grave together. Maybe Old Man Sean will go too, but I'd rather the two of us go alone.

The captain made up his mind and went to bed.

At nine o'clock the next morning, the captain first visited Old Man Sean, and then prepared to visit the grave. There were wounded soldiers guarding the door of the old man's room, and when he saw the captain, he immediately raised his hand and saluted

"Is there anything wrong with the old man?"

"He went out with a wreath."

The captain went into the house and checked, and the lead pipes, rope ladders, and portable lamps were gone. "It's strange that when the old man went out, he only carried a wreath?"

"Yes. Didn't bring anything else. ”

Questioning, the captain looked around and saw the open window.

"It turned out that the three things were handed out from the window. Why did the old man secretly take out his things without the wounded soldiers noticing? Well, it may be that the old man was used by the villains in his madness. ”

The captain took Yaqin to the courtyard and told her what had happened the previous night. Yaqin couldn't help but worry: "Is Sean in danger?"

"Anyway, he's gone to the grave too, let's go and see!"
