Chapter 5255 Revealing Xiaoyue's Identity
As the bank building caught fire, urgent whistles and sirens blared all around, shattering the tranquility of the night.
The sirens wailed throughout the long night, even waking Zhang Tianhao, who was resting at home.
Even Xiaoyue, who was asleep, had to be woken up. Even Song Wen and Zhang Tianhao had to wake her up, since it was better to wake her up like Xiaoyue during hypnosis.
"Brother, why are you so cold?"
He had just gotten out of bed when he saw Xiaoyue run over from the next room, jump into his arms, and let him hold her. It wouldn't have been a big deal.
But last night, as he recalled many details from the past, he realized that he had acted like a fool.
"Xiaoyue, you're a grown woman now, not a little girl. Get down here, understand?"
"I've been up for a while now. It's so cold outside, no wonder I'm freezing!"
He rolled his eyes at Xiaoyue, then put her aside and put his arm around Song Wen, looking at the distant fire with great pleasure.
Flames shot into the sky, illuminating half of it.
That was none other than the location of the Bank of Japan, where he had poured gasoline on the building and set it on fire.
Archives, documents, supplies, and even money and gold all disappeared or were completely consumed by the fire.
No one knew that Zhang Tianhao was the mastermind behind this incident, and no one would have imagined that Zhang Tianhao would act so decisively, leaving the Japanese with absolutely no hope.
"Brother, why aren't you hugging me anymore?"
"No need, you're a grown woman now, we should keep a certain distance!"
"Right, Xiaowen?" he said, turning to look at Song Wen. After all, they were husband and wife in name only, but in reality, they were probably just using each other.
"By the way, Xiaowen, what's that over there? Why is there a fire over there, and it looks like it's quite big?"
He pretended to be confused for a moment. After all, how could someone who had just arrived in Shanghai possibly know what that place was, let alone anything else?
"That area seems to be Japanese territory, but why did a fire break out there?"
Even Zhang Tianhao didn't expect that the fire over there had already spread out. After all, most of the Japanese buildings were made of wood, and now that the fire had started, it had directly spread to the houses on one side, and the entire street was under the threat of the fire, which could very well burn down to the other side.
"How could a fire start in Japanese territory? Could something have happened?"
He said it casually, then shook his head with a wry smile.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Xiaoyue and saw that her eyes no longer held the innocence they once had, but rather a hint of anger.
Although he didn't know who it was directed at, this anger still made Zhang Tianhao more vigilant.
But that expression quickly faded; after all, without seeing it with one's own eyes, one would never believe it was true.
"Xiaowen, let's go inside and go to sleep. This has nothing to do with us. We're in the concession area, it's different from over there."
"it is good!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaowen didn't say much. Although she didn't know what Xiaowen was thinking, she felt that it was alright to leave it at that.
Inside the room, Zhang Tianhao looked at Song Wen, a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"By the way, Xiaowen, I wanted to ask, who gave you this jade?"
"This jade tripod?"
Song Wen was somewhat shocked when she saw the jade piece in Zhang Tianhao's hand. She unconsciously touched the area below her neck and was startled. "This jade? I bought it on the street. Is there a problem?"
"Xiaowen, you're not telling me the truth, really!"
Suddenly, just as he was about to say something, he heard a slight noise at the door and immediately whispered, "Xiaoyue, why aren't you going to sleep? What are you thinking about?"
"Little Moon!"
Upon hearing this, Song Wen was also taken aback, but she immediately realized something and looked at Zhang Tianhao with a strange expression, as if this was the first time Zhang Tianhao had scolded Xiaoyue.
"I'm sorry, brother, I'm going to sleep now."
He had obviously been eavesdropping, though he didn't know if he had overheard anything, but he was still a bit more cautious.
Hearing the door to the next room close, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Song Wen, "Tell me, who gave you this?"
"I really bought it! You don't believe me."
“I believe you, but who would want to kill you? No wonder your health hasn’t improved at all despite my medication, and it’s getting worse. So someone wanted to harm you.”
"Who harmed me?"
"This jade cauldron is harmful. It should contain radioactive chemical substances. If a person wears it, they will be slowly affected by the radioactive substances, and eventually their health will deteriorate."
"I hadn't noticed it before, but when I checked you last night, I found this thing—a radioactive element. It's really harmful."
"But Xiaotian, who would want to harm me? This shouldn't be happening!"
"But we have a good relationship, how could she harm me, Xiaotian? I can't be mistaken, can I?"
"No, I'm absolutely certain I'm not mistaken. There are radioactive elements in this. It's terrifying, really."
"But why would she want to hurt me?"
"Who is she, Xiaoyue?"
"how do you know!"
This time, it was Song Wen's turn to feel something was wrong. She looked at him with a shocked expression, her eyes full of disbelief.
"What's there to be afraid of, Xiaoyue? Is she really a young girl? I've been so good to you, and I always care about your health, but your health is getting worse and worse. Don't you find that strange? That's why I checked your body."
"Then I discovered the reason. I realized many details that I hadn't paid attention to before. Xiaoyue looked like a little girl of only eleven or twelve years old, but her behavior was not like that at all."
"I didn't notice it when they were putting on an act in front of me, but when I thought about some small things at home more carefully, I really discovered a big problem."
"Xiao Tian, I'm sorry, I don't know her identity either. What did you find out about her identity? Is she a bad person?"
"Alright, you're a terrible police officer. Seriously, having such a vicious person by my side, I don't even know what to say about you."
He sighed softly and said helplessly, "If I'm not mistaken, this Xiaoyue should be an adult, and selling her to us is very likely a conspiracy."
"A conspiracy? No way?"
"That's quite possible. After all, this is aimed at me, or at you. An adult pretending to be an ordinary little girl, no matter how hard they try, can't really pull it off. There will always be some flaws."
