Chapter 314
Now that he saw Wang Sanshao's unusual behavior, Anxi naturally had to pay more attention.
But after observing in the bookstore for a few days, he still didn't find anything wrong with him.
From the reactions of Wang Sishao and the bookstore clerk, it was known that this place must be the stronghold of the underground party, but at present, it seems that they have no communication with Wang Sanshao.
Although San Shao often came to read books and sat for most of the day, there was nothing unusual about interacting with other people in the store.
So, what's going on with this third young master?
Did he just know Wang Sishao and see his abnormality, or did he have other identities, such as an agent of the Kuomintang or something?
These are all Anxi's guesses, there is no actual evidence, and it is not good to act rashly.
Fourth Young Master left Shanghai and went to Hong Kong. Anxi had no reason not to follow him. He could only stay in the bookstore and observe the situation of Third Young Master and the bookstore.
Such days lasted for five days, and after five days, the calm was broken.
A group of people surrounded the bookstore, it was the number 76.
No. 76 is the spy agency of the Wang puppet government. It has been very active in Shanghai in the past few years, and it is basically targeted by them.
I don't know why they surrounded the bookstore. Could it be that those people in the store were exposed?
Thinking of this, Anxi couldn't help frowning, observing the environment left and right, thinking inwardly, is there any way to make these people retreat unscathed.
There were many customers downstairs, and after being surrounded, they hid in panic.
There was only a 'bang' sound from the wooden warehouse, followed by a gloomy male voice, "Stop all of them and just stay here."
Everyone was so frightened by the voice that they didn't dare to breathe.
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, the man motioned to the followers behind him, "Interrogate one by one." Then he calmly went up to the second floor.
The layout of the second floor is clear at a glance, except for a few bookshelves, there are only tables and chairs.All the men saw Wang Sanshao at a glance.
He sneered and sat down opposite the third young master, "Yo, the third young master is so excited! You still have the mind to read here, I don't know if something happened to the fourth young master, are you worried?"
Third Young Master looked up at him indifferently, and said indifferently, "What can happen to him."
"Really? Hehe, do you not understand, or are you pretending not to know?" The man didn't believe San Shao's words, and asked bluntly.
"Oh, so what happened to him?" Third Young Master didn't seem to care at all, and turned a page of the book while talking.
Seeing him like this, the man was obviously angry, "You are so calm, ah, yes, you were not born by the same mother, of course you don't care about the fourth young master's life or death."
"Oh..." The third young master didn't want to talk to him at all, he was just annoyed.
The man exploded in anger, and stretched his hand towards the wooden warehouse at his waist, but thinking of the identity of the person in front of him, he had to suppress his temper, but his tone was clearly threatening, "The fourth young master is inseparable from the KMT. I don’t know if this matter will implicate the Wang family, don’t you, the third young master, fail to do it and be implicated as a prisoner.”
"So, you want to deal with the Wang family!" Third Young Master was indifferent, "Go if you want!"
This unrestrained look made the man helpless.
Of course it is impossible to deal with the Wang family, not to mention the strength of the Wang family itself, but their relationship methods are not something a small number 76 can offend.
The man himself did not come from any aristocratic family, and he was able to climb up to his current position thanks to his ruthlessness.
But he is not a reckless temper, on the contrary he is quite cautious inside.
He knows that there are many people in Shanghai who cannot be offended, such as the Japanese, people from other Western countries, and the Wang family.
Not to mention himself, even the chairman and vice chairman of No. 76 did not dare to easily offend the Wang family.
When he came this time, he only heard that before Wang Sishao left Shanghai, he had come to the bookstore to look for Wang Sanshao, trying to defraud him.
Unexpectedly, Wang Sanshao, who is known as a nerd, would be so reckless.
Isn't he afraid of being implicated by Wang Sishao?
You must know that many high-ranking Japanese officials and high-ranking officials of the Wang government have accidents this time, and they are inseparable from Wang Sishao.
The man was furious, and there was nothing he could do about Wang Sanshao, so he turned his anger on the other customers on the second floor, "What are you looking at, you, you, you, you all, go down and accept the investigation."
Anxi didn't care about being pointed at bluntly by him, but secretly guessed in his heart what exactly happened.
When he went down to the first floor, he saw that everyone was surrounded, and there were several men with guns standing at the door, questioning them one by one.
After walking in and listening, I realized what they were investigating.
"Do you know Wang Sishao? Have you been to the bookstore on the 12th? Have you ever had contact with Wang Sanshao? Do you know what Wang Sishao is doing in Hong Kong?"
Those who were interrogated were all panicked and worried, and they stammered their answers before being released.
Fortunately, those who can come to this bookstore have some family background, so they won't be beaten and scolded by the people of No. 76 at will.
As time passed, more and more people left after being interrogated, and the first floor gradually became empty, leaving only the shopkeeper and shop assistants.
When the people were almost gone, Anxi went over at a leisurely pace and faced the same questioning.
"I know. I met him on the train to Shanghai. There was an accident on the train and two Japanese people died. It was Wang Sishao who led people to catch the murderer. I have seen him, but he probably doesn't know me. On the 12th, I was also in the bookstore. I saw Wang Sishao came to Wang Sanshao and said a few words, as if he had given him a few tickets. As for what it was, I was far away, so I didn’t see clearly. What did you say that day? Uh, I didn’t listen Qing, it seems to be about horse racing and betting."
"What else? Don't be sloppy, you can hear clearly from the position you were sitting at that time? Are you Wang Sishao's accomplice? Help him cover it up. If you don't tell the truth, you will be arrested and interrogated on No. 76." A man holding a wooden The wretched man in Cang asked fiercely.
Anxi frowned, as if he was unhappy at the rudeness of the person in front of him, but he still answered patiently, "The second floor is a place to read books, it's very quiet, and the fourth young master's voice is very quiet when he comes, it's normal if I didn't hear it You are not a scholar, and you don't know that people with quality will not speak loudly in such an environment."
"You—" The man was angry at Anxi's disdain, and he stretched out his hand to hit him.
He was interrupted by a voice that suddenly appeared, "Mr. An is right, what do you fools know?"
Anxi turned his head and saw that it was the third young master who had come down. He was calm and at ease, and he should not have received any unfair treatment.
Behind him was the man who took the lead. At this time, the man's face was very ugly, and it was obvious that he had nothing to gain.
The third young master walked up to Anxi calmly, "Mr. An, I have read your article before. Compared with Mr. Zhou, although each has its own merits, I have benefited a lot from both."
"Third Young Master praised it, but it's just some small opinions that don't make it to the stage. Thank you Third Young Master for his appreciation." Anxi smiled.
"No, it's a real insight. I still don't understand a little bit about the thoughts expressed in your article. I don't know if I have time now. I want to ask my husband for advice."
"I don't dare to ask for advice. I have nothing to do. Why don't we go to the cafe in front to talk?" Anxi knew that the third young master wanted to save himself, so he agreed.
Upon hearing this, Third Young Master immediately stretched out his hand, "Please."
After finishing speaking, Shi Shi ran away without giving anyone a look.
Seeing this, Anxi politely nodded to everyone, and then followed behind Wang Sanshao.
The person who wanted to hit Anxi looked annoyed, and was about to raise the wooden warehouse in his hand, but was stopped by the man who went upstairs.
Mr. Zhou knew that he was a famous professor and writer, and the honorary president of Peking University. There were many people in the puppet government who had been his students, and he was another person he could not afford to offend.
Anxi can be mentioned together with Mr. Zhou, which means that they are related and cannot be easily offended.
Thinking of this, the man gritted his teeth.
Shanghai is so difficult to mix, the one on the left can't afford to offend, and the other is careful, it's a bitch.
Seeing this, the others had no choice but to watch the two walk away.
San Shao is a person who has one thing to say and one thing to say. When he said to ask Anxi for advice, he really asked for advice.
The two came to the coffee shop to sit down, and the third young master asked the questions in his heart one by one. In addition to those written in the article about Anxi, there were also some puzzles in his own mind that Anxi did not mention.
Anxi tried his best to answer these questions in detail, but occasionally he gave a positive response when he was not sure, "I have some ideas about this question, but I don't know if it is correct, and I need to check the information for verification." , When I have a definite answer, I will write to Third Young Master."
The third young master didn't bother, and agreed to write a letter with Anxi, so he stopped talking.
Then he stopped talking, and acted like a nerd enough that he didn't care about anything except books.
Anxi thought for a while, and asked directly, "Is Young Master Wang alright? I think the man in number 76 is aggressive."
The third young master shook his head, and said indifferently, "What can happen to him, it's just that the Japanese and high-ranking officials of the puppet government are gathering in Hong Kong, and he just appeared at other people's banquets, and he can't be involved."
His expression is very natural, and the gesture of indifference is not fake.
Does this mean that Wang Sishao is really fine, even if he is implicated, he can escape smoothly?
This is good news!
"An accident happened between the Japanese and the senior officials of the puppet government?" Anxi was puzzled, and then immediately stopped, "If you can't say it, forget it."
The third young master said indifferently, "What can't be said, isn't it that the banquet exploded and killed many officials! Anyway, these officials have accidents every day. This time, there are just too many people who have accidents. The generation of the camp, without them, there will be the next batch of officials to fill the vacancies."
He looks very much like a noble literati who looks down on mediocre officials.Not to mention Anxi, even the people watching from behind felt the same way, right?
Anxi turned sideways slightly, and saw the watcher clearly, wasn't he one of the people who came to search the bookstore?
Seeing this number 76, I haven't given up yet!
Should he remind Wang Sanshao?
But seeing his clear expression, with a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, he knew that Wang Sanshao had also noticed it.
