At night.
Gu Mansion.
In Gu Linglong's boudoir.
Gu Qingcheng walked up and down in front of Gu Linglong with her hands behind her back and said, "That is to say, you went to the patrol room to find him, and he went to Maixi Ailu for duty, and then you chased Maisi Ailu, and something happened to him.
He returned to the patrol room again, and when you followed him back to the patrol room, you never thought that he got off the car halfway and went to who knows where..."
"Gu Qingcheng, can't you sit down? It makes me dizzy!" Gu Linglong was very upset after not being able to meet Xu Siqi as she wished.
"I remember that Shakespeare said that the road to true love is not smooth. So, my dear sister, you don't need to worry about gains and losses. If you are really destined, you will meet each other sooner or later." When Gu Qingcheng said these words, it was rare.
With a serious look, she didn't want her sister to go to Hangzhou with a lot of worries.
Gu Linglong was silent for a moment, sighed softly, and said: "I'm not worried about gains and losses, I just want to say goodbye to him. After all, I will leave Shanghai early tomorrow morning, and I will be away for three months..."
Gu Qingcheng disagreed and said in vain: "It's only three months, not three years. If he can't wait even three months, then he's not worthy of Miss Gu Er's love."
"He and I are just ordinary friends, why should he wait for me for three months..." Gu Linglong muttered softly.
"That's right, you and him have no name or relationship, and you're not even a girlfriend. This is really a problem..." Gu Qingcheng also frowned.
The room fell into silence for a moment.
Gu Qingcheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at his sister with a strange expression, and said, "Linglong, I have a good idea, but I'm afraid you won't agree."
"What can I do?" Gu Linglong asked eagerly.
"In front of Xu Siqi, I will play you."
"Play me?"
"To put it simply, I fall in love with him for you, and he must think that I am you. In this way, it means that you and him have been getting along. After waiting for three months, after you come back, everything will fall into place.
Yet?"
"Gu Qingcheng, is this your good idea?" Gu Linglong looked at her sister with a proud look on her face in surprise.
Gu Qingcheng's eyes widened: "Isn't this a bad idea?"
"I only want to use four words to evaluate your good idea, that is - it's so ridiculous!" Gu Linglong said word by word.
"Absurd? Linglong, why do you think so? My sister has made a lot of sacrifices for you. You should also know that I haven't even been in love yet."
"I can't explain to you... I'm tired and I need to rest." Gu Linglong issued the eviction order and continued to argue, which made no sense.
"Linglong, as long as you don't tell me about this, he won't notice it. Besides, I don't meet him every day. I occasionally have a cup of coffee or watch a movie. My sister wants to help you."
Get to know him better, at least know what kind of person he is before you establish a relationship with him!"
Gu Linglong's heart moved. Gu Qingcheng's last words moved her.
The time I have been in contact with Xu Siqi is too short, and I don't know anything about his temperament. If I can learn more about him through some way, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing...

Two days later.
Translator Liu came out of his home, touched the two silver coins in his pocket, and walked towards Xiaodongmen Sunflower Lane, which is a black market for selling tobacco.
Nowadays, although selling tobacco is a legal business, it requires paying high taxes.
Businessmen are eager to make profits and try their best to make as much money as possible. Against this backdrop, the black market emerged as the times require.
The prices of goods on the black market are relatively cheap, and drug addicts like Liu Cheng who are not well-off are buzzing from all directions like flies smelling shit.
When Liu Chenggang walked to the intersection of Xiaodongmen Street, a man wearing a green cloth gown and a gray top hat walked towards him and said in a low voice: "Boss, do you want some goods? It's high-quality Yuntu. I'm in a hurry to use the money. It's cheap."
.”
"What's the price?" Liu Cheng asked casually. The price of Yuntu was so expensive that he couldn't afford it given his economic level.
The man named a figure, and the price was only half of the usual price.
Liu Cheng couldn't believe it and said: "Let me tell you, I am an expert. If you pass off inferior products as good ones, I will not be fooled by you."
The man pulled Liu Cheng to a quiet place, took out a round object the size of a table tennis ball from his arms, and wrapped it tightly in tin foil. Just looking at the packaging, it looked like the highest quality cloud soil.
After testing the authenticity of the tobacco soil, Liu Cheng was elated. He could buy top-grade cloud soil at this price, which was like giving it for free.
evening.
Ito Trading Co., Ltd.
Ito Masa just sat behind his desk, while Kobayashi Hikoro stood in silence with his hands down.
"Kobayashi-kun, this batch of goods does not need to be transported back to the trading company. It will be sent directly to the Marine Corps Headquarters of the Dispatch Force. Major Shibuya will hand over it to you."
"yes."
"The concession authorities have always been dissatisfied with the empire. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, if there is an inspection on the road, you do not need to come forward and let Liu Cheng deal with the patrols."
"Mr. Ito, do you want to bring a few more people with you this time?"
"Are you worried about safety?"
"Yes."
"If the patrol room dares to seize the goods, don't conflict with them. Call me immediately. I will notify the consulate and ask Consul Shi She to come forward to negotiate with the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau."
"Mr. Ito, we are delivering goods at night this time. In case of an emergency..."
Ito Masahiro thought for a moment, took out a southern-style pistol from the drawer, put it gently on the table, and said: "This time, you and Liu Cheng will bring the gun. There are many eyes, Boris
There, try not to let too many people know the inside story."
"Understood." Kobayashi Hikoro picked up the pistol on the table, checked the magazine, and then put the pistol into his arms.
Ito just got up and came to the window, looked at the truck parked at the door, and said, "Xiaolin-kun, do you think Liu Cheng is still reliable?"
Kobayashi Hikoro smiled slightly: "According to my observation, Liu Cheng is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He is an obedient citizen in the standard sense. As long as he is paid a good salary, I think there will be no problem for the time being."
Masako Ito nodded. He basically agreed with Hikobayashi Hikoro's view. Moreover, the trading company really needed a Chinese who could understand Japanese and drive.
Ten minutes later, Hikoro Kobayashi got into the car carrying a suitcase and said to Liu Cheng, "Go to Sophie Church."
The truck turned on its lights and sped towards the French Concession.
Seeing this scene, a man in a blue cloth jacket quickly walked into the phone booth on the roadside, picked up the phone and dialed a series of numbers: "Brother Zhi, they are gone."
"Okay, got it." The other end of the phone was from a phone booth near Sophie Church, and the person who answered the phone was Hua Kezhi.
Coming out of the phone booth, Hua Kezhi looked around, made a gesture to the darkness, and then disappeared into the darkness himself.
About an hour later, a truck slowly stopped at the side entrance of Sophie Church.
Kobayashi Hikoro sat in the car, raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and said to Liu Cheng: "Liu Translator, wait here, I will be back soon."
"Okay." Liu Cheng agreed respectfully.
Looking at the depressed Liu Cheng, Kobayashi Hikoro said with a cold face: "Let me remind you that tonight's goods are very important, so please be more energetic!"
"yes."
Watching Kobayashi Hikoro enter the church, Liu Cheng immediately opened the interior panel of the car door and took out his cigarette and cigarette lamp. He wanted to seize the time to enjoy himself.
