After listening to Xu Siqi's words, Tao Qinghong couldn't help but hesitate.
Xu Siqi thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll send someone to check in the next two days. If the Shunhe does belong to a regular shipping company, it won't be too late for you to take their ship again."
Tao Qinghong said quickly: "Then I'll trouble you."
"It's not troublesome, it's just a matter of helping others. Besides, don't worry, even if the Shunhe fails, I will help you find another ship."
"Thank you very much, Brother Xu."
"The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so this matter must be done urgently..."
Tao Qinghong was very happy that the inspector from the patrol room was helping her. Even if Liu Zhensheng really had malicious intentions, he probably wouldn't dare to do anything to her.
Xu Siqi said: "When the investigation is clear, where can I find you?"
"There is a Ping'an Inn in the north of Jing'an Temple. I live there."
"I remember... you used to stay at the Dazhong Hotel on Wenjianshi Road, right?"
"Well, they still live there, I'm the only one who moved out."
"Why did you move out?"
“No reason, I just don’t want to live there anymore.”
Xu Siqi said: "It doesn't matter if you move out, your classmates are all suspected of being red, especially Qiao Zhendong. If you hang out with them all day long, you will inevitably be implicated in the future."
"From now on, whoever he is, he has nothing to do with me..." Tao Qinghong's eyes showed pain.
Xu Siqi smiled: "You are talking about him, not them. Are you referring to Qiao Zhendong?"
Tao Qinghong looked gloomy, was silent for a long time, and said: "Brother Xu, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Xu Siqi nodded: "Keep your money safe and be careful on the road."
"goodbye."
"goodbye."
After coming out of the Hongkou patrol room, Tao Qinghong took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the tram stop.
Just after turning the intersection, Qiao Zhendong came over and said, "Qinghong, where have you been? I followed the tram all the way here and looked for you nearby for more than half an hour."
Tao Qinghong ignored him and walked over quickly with a cold face.
"Qinghong, wait a minute, can't you please talk to me if you have anything to say? You left without saying goodbye. Do you know how worried I am?" Qiao Zhendong followed closely behind.
Tao Qinghong remained unmoved and continued walking quickly.
Qiao Zhendong finally lost his patience and couldn't help shouting: "Qinghong, stop acting like a child and come back with me!"
Tao Qinghong suddenly stopped, stared at Qiao Zhendong coldly, and said, "Why are I going back with you? Will I take a bullet for you at the critical moment?"
"There are so many people on the street, what are you talking about?" Qiao Zhendong looked around nervously.
Tao Qinghong sneered: "Am I talking nonsense? Okay! Let me ask you for the last time, how did Xiaojun die?"
"I've explained it a hundred times. I didn't say that to Xiaojun. Do you believe it or not?" Qiao Zhendong tried to calm down.
"Since I believe it or not, why are you coming to see me?" Tao Qinghong said indifferently.
Qiao Zhendong was speechless and speechless for a moment. Now he was a little angry and said loudly: "Tao Qinghong, you would rather believe an outsider than me!"
"Xiaojun never lies! Moreover, he is not an outsider. He treats me as his sister and you as his brother!" Tao Qinghong held back her tears. She was afraid that she would not be able to control her emotions and cry on the street.
.
“…”
Passers-by looked at the two of them from time to time. Qiao Zhendong quickly pulled Tao Qinghong aside and whispered: "Qinghong, what exactly do you want me to do so that you will definitely believe me?"
Tao Qinghong said: "I just want you to tell the truth. Have you ever told Xiaojun to ask him to block you at critical moments?"
Qiao Zhendong hesitated for a while and finally said: "I admit, I said..."
"You were still quibbling just now!"
"I said it... but I didn't ask him to take the bullet for me. He is so careless, what does it have to do with me."
"Xiaojun died for you, how could you say such a thing?" Tao Qinghong couldn't believe that such heartless words came from Qiao Zhendong's mouth.
"I mean..."
"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it!"
After a moment of silence, Tao Qinghong slowly calmed down and said: "Zhendong, don't follow me anymore. In a few days, I will send Xiaojun's coffin back to the Northeast. From now on, we... can go our separate ways."
After saying this, she could no longer control her sadness, and big tears rolled down her cheeks.
Leaving behind Qiao Zhendong who had not yet recovered, Tao Qinghong quickly got into a rickshaw on the street and said: "Jing'an Temple."
The rickshaw gradually went away, and Qiao Zhendong stood helplessly on the street in a daze.
Tao Qinghong's family is well off. She and Qiao Zhendong have been sweethearts since childhood. They have been in love for many years and their relationship has always been stable.
Qiao Zhendong was determined to find the Communist Party. In order to support her boyfriend's revolutionary feat, Tao Qinghong ran away from home secretly despite the opposition of her family.
It can be said that before Xiaojun was killed, everything Tao Qinghong did was for Qiao Zhendong.

The film was developed quickly. Zhou Weilong was shocked when he saw the content on the film. He immediately called Boss Dai to notify him.
In the evening, Zhou Weilong went to Shenjiang Apartment and personally picked up Xu Siqi.
This matter is not trivial, and Boss Dai must investigate it himself.
In the large office of the director, Xu Siqi walked in under the guidance of Zhou Weilong. This was the first time he saw Boss Dai in person.
"Virgo, he is Xu Siqi." Zhou Weilong introduced him from the side.
Xu Siqi put her feet together: "Happy Virgo!"
Boss Dai sat behind his desk, looked Xu Siqi up and down, and said, "About the mini recorder, please tell me in detail without missing a word."
"yes!"
Xu Siqi told the story from beginning to end, even the conversation with Shuigen's family, so that Boss Dai would not send someone to verify the situation afterwards.
Boss Dai thought for a long time, pointed to the films stacked on the table, and said to Xu Siqi: "Do you know what Sun Wuyang was shooting?"
Xu Siqi said loudly: "Reporting to the director, I don't know. After I got the camera, I gave it to Stationmaster Zhou as soon as possible."
"Well, very good."
After a slight pause, Boss Dai said thoughtfully: "You just said that it is difficult to describe Sun Wuyang's appearance. Why?"
"Sun Wuyang looks very charming at first glance, but there are no special features... Virgo, I can't describe her. To put it simply, she has no special features."
Boss Dai nodded, turned to look at Zhou Weilong, and said, "Dao San, what do you think?"
Zhou Weilong took a step closer and said in a low voice: "Judging from the style and means of doing things, there is a high probability that it is her."
"You should handle this matter yourself, and you must find out where she is!"
"yes!"
Xu Siqi didn't know what they were saying, so he could only stand aside with his hands down.
