On the day of the opening of Chinachem Hotel, Sheng Muyi attended the celebration ceremony with her father. Sheng Di also went there, and there were many Japanese spies among the crowd at the venue.
After the celebration ceremony, Sheng Muyi began to implement the wonderful escape she had planned.
After entering the room, she began to take off her coat and left it on the floor of the room. Then she put on a suit, a blond wig on her head, tied her hair up, and then put on a taller and larger hat.
He also put on men's leather shoes and a pair of large sunglasses to cover half of his face.
Mu Yi is tall and slender. Dressed like this, she really looks like a man. If you don't look closely, it would be difficult to find that she is a beautiful woman.
When the corridor was empty, Sheng Muyi came out. She took the freight elevator and went to the underground parking lot. She successfully found the U.S. Consulate General's car, opened the back door and got in, then huddled in the front seat and the back seat.
In the middle of the row of seats, she took out a blanket of the same color as the car mat and covered herself completely.
At this time, one of her bodyguards went to quietly find the driver of the American Consul General and asked him to bring half a kilogram of cigarettes to an opium den. This opium den was opened by a disciple of Mr. Du and was very famous in Shanghai.
The bodyguard secretly gave the driver a hundred yuan in silver notes, saying that this was his reward for troublesome brother.
The driver was originally unwilling to do such a thing as delivering cigarettes, thinking it was unreasonable, but when he saw the hundred-yuan banknote, his eyes suddenly went straight.
At this time, let alone anything outrageous, he would dare to do even the most vicious things. Although trafficking in cigarettes was illegal at the time, it was very common. The key was to make money quickly.
Even if Sheng Muyi's bodyguard didn't ask him, he still had to make a trip. He had to go to the dock to pick up the nephew of the consul general from the United States. This was exactly why Muyi asked his bodyguard to ask him instead of asking someone else.
One hundred oceans is equivalent to five months' salary of his. He will definitely not refuse such a good trip.
The driver returned to the parking lot and did not look back after getting into the car. This was his habit, because usually the consul general was sitting in the back seat. He just looked forward and drove well, and could not look back slyly.
Having worked as a driver for the Consul General for several years, he never imagined that someone would be hiding in the car, or that someone would dare to hide in it.
Just by looking at the license plate, you can tell that this is the exclusive vehicle of the U.S. Consul General. Even the most aggressive car thieves in Shanghai will avoid it.
After driving out of the parking lot, the parking lot manager took a brief look inside the car, but of course he couldn't find Sheng Muyi, who was covered tightly with a blanket. The driver drove to the opium shop, parked the car and went in to deliver the tobacco.
Sheng Muyi got out of the car at this time, walked for a while, and then stopped a rickshaw to go to the pier.
When she arrived at the dock, she walked around and found that there were still Japanese controls here and there was no chance to get on the ship.
Yuan Ziyuan took the first action at noon. She boarded a speedboat arranged by the Caobang at Pier 4 and headed towards Suzhou via the Wusong River.
She made no effort to conceal her actions. When she arrived at Suzhou Pier, she directly bought a ticket and boarded the Kyonomaru ship.
After the Japanese saw her leaving Wanguo Apartment, they began to increase their manpower to follow and monitor her. Until Shion boarded the ship, they sent four skilled personnel to board the ship and follow her, preparing to arrest and detain her at the appropriate time.
Yuan Ziyuan has helped Mu Yi attract the attention of many Japanese. Although the number of Japanese controlling the shipping terminal at this time is not large, they still control several important aspects of the cruise ship's entrance very strictly.
The American Mayflower cruise ship has a huge hull, with a total length of nearly 200 meters, a width of 20 meters, and can carry 1,800 passengers. It was one of the most powerful and complete ocean-going cruise ships at the time.
It was now the time for tourists to board the ship. There were four or five Japanese spies monitoring each other at the entrance. Most of the people boarding the ship were accompanied by relatives and friends. Chattering and conversation before boarding the ship were inevitable.
Sheng Muyi was alone, which would naturally arouse the suspicion of the monitors, and it was impossible for her to board the ship under the eyes of Japanese agents.
She knew that the little makeup skills could not deceive the small eyes of the Japanese. It was said that these Japanese spies who were responsible for surveillance and tracking had received special training and took cod liver oil every day, and their eyesight was much better than that of ordinary people.
After observing for a while, Sheng Muyi decided to give up boarding the American Mayflower cruise ship and instead took a ferry to Hong Kong. There were only two Japanese spies monitoring the entrance of this ferry.
Sheng Muyi thought this way, after arriving in Hong Kong to get rid of the Japanese surveillance, she would find another opportunity to go to Peking. There is still more than half a year before May 20 next year, so time is not urgent.
Sheng Muyi immediately went to buy a ticket for the ferry. While buying the ticket, she saw a well-dressed man walking by. She immediately went over to say hello to him and said a few words to the gentleman.
The man stared at her in surprise for a while and couldn't help but laugh.
Sheng Muyi told him the truth that she was disguising herself as a man in order to avoid being tracked by her husband's family. She no longer wanted to live with that man and was planning to defect to her uncle in Hong Kong.
The man laughed loudly, and in order to help Sheng Muyi disguise herself, he took out a cigarette and gave one to Sheng Muyi, letting her hold it in her mouth.
The two of them passed the ticket inspection in a confident manner and boarded the ferry to Hong Kong. After boarding the ferry, Sheng Muyi thanked the man profusely, and then the two of them went to their respective cabins.
This was a ferry specially designed to travel between Hong Kong and Shanghai. There were not many people on the boat. Sheng Muyi breathed a sigh of relief after entering her single cabin.
She didn't know if she had successfully deceived the Japanese spies, but at this point, no matter what the outcome was, good or bad, she could only accept her fate.
She was glad that she had successfully staged a missing-in-a-secret-room scene at the Chinachem Hotel, and the rest would be a headache for Sheng Di.
She knew that after she disappeared, the police station would be busy for a while, but those stupid and stupid police officers would not find anything, so her father would definitely let Lu Ming come to help in the end.
Lu Ming will definitely have a headache, so she can't control it, but she believes that Lu Ming will be able to successfully solve this problem sooner or later.
Half an hour later, the ferry blew its whistle and left the pier.
Looking at the pier disappearing behind her and the tall buildings in the distance, Sheng Muyi burst into tears.
Farewell, Shanghai.
Farewell, father.
Farewell, all dear ones.
…
At the same time, Lu Ming, who was far away in his hometown, suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart, and then he couldn't help but shed tears.
He didn't know what happened, but he couldn't help but look into the distance, but he only saw blue sky and white clouds in the sky.
What he was holding was an English version of "Pride and Prejudice". He smiled bitterly and thought, could it be that his level of appreciation has been greatly reduced, and such a vulgar plot can bring tears to his eyes?
He didn't think much about it, because the characters in the novel happened to be hurt by love, and they were also calling out to the lover in their hearts with tears in their eyes.
…
At the same time at the Chinachem Hotel, Sheng Youde also felt a throbbing in his heart, as if something particularly bad had happened. The first thing he thought of was his daughter.
So I immediately took people to the room where my daughter rested on the top floor. After calling for a long time, no one answered, and found that it was locked.
He had an ominous feeling in his heart, so he called the hotel staff, spent a long time opening the door, and went in to check. Only a set of clothes was left in the room, and his daughter was missing.
So who locked the door inside? The answer is actually very simple. It is one of Sheng Muyi's personal maids. She knows almost all the inside information, but she believes in Buddhism and swore under the statue of Buddha that she will never reveal the secret of the young lady.
to anyone.
So there were only three people involved in this matter, Sheng Muyi's most trusted maid, and two bodyguards.
The maid locked the door and hid in the bathroom at the entrance. When everyone rushed in, she sneaked out and blended into the crowd without being noticed by anyone.
This detail was guessed by Lu Ming, but unfortunately his other guess was wrong. The American Consul General and his driver were not involved in this matter.
Sheng Muyi just cleverly borrowed the Consul General's car and successfully escaped from the Chinachem Hotel.
