The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 42 Making Money

The patrol room gets off work at six o'clock. In fact, as long as there are no cases, you can leave at half past five or even five o'clock.

It was Cheng Mo's first day here, so naturally he couldn't imitate those old fritters. If he was caught with pigtails, he would be the one to suffer.

He stayed until get off work at six o'clock honestly, even if it was a case, he didn't leave early, even if others wanted to put on his shoes, there was nothing they could do.

He had to get a car, not a car or a motorcycle, but a bicycle.

The detective from the patrol room rides a bicycle to and from get off work, which not only attracts less attention, but also saves the effort and time of walking.

On this street in the concession, cars are not necessarily faster than bicycles.

After all, it's another sum of money.

You can also take the tram, but the tram has a time limit and you have to wait. This is not economical for people who have precious time.

……

French Concession, Lafayette Road, Su Mansion.

Spacious and bright restaurant.

The family is having dinner, with four dishes and one soup. This is a very high standard of living in Shanghai. No one can eat a large table every day and waste everything if they can't finish it.

Su Mo'er is not the only child in the family. She also has an older sister who has been married for many years. She followed her husband and lives in the United States.

She also has a younger brother, who is not too young anymore. He is fifteen years old and studying at the Sino-French School.

"Mo'er, I heard you tell me, you didn't go to the movies with Miss Tan last night?" Su Shouan is old and doesn't eat much for dinner, usually a small bowl is enough.

Su Mo'er was originally planning to continue picking up the food, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but retract her chopsticks, put them down and stood up, saying: "Dad, Mom, I'm full, you eat slowly, I'm going back to the room..."

"Stop." Su Shouan stopped his daughter.

"Dad, do you have anything else to do?" Su Morer turned around with a stern expression.

"I just asked you something, and you haven't answered it yet?" Su Shouan asked seriously with a straight face. He was really worried about his daughter's marriage. She was already twenty-four years old and she didn't even have her husband's family. , even if she said it, she felt embarrassed. She couldn't take care of it abroad, but she had to take care of it when she came back. If I had known, she wouldn't have been allowed to study abroad and study medicine.

This is giving my heart to Xueye.

It's fine if she's ugly, but it's strange that she can't marry someone who is as beautiful as a flower.

It's not that he doesn't want to marry a girl, but that Su Mo'er hasn't found the one she likes. This is the advantage of sending her to study abroad.

"Dad, you're talking about Tan Xiaoya. She had something to do last night and couldn't go, so I went to see it alone. The movie tickets I finally bought will be wasted if I don't go!" Su Moer said with evasive eyes.

"Only you?"

"Two, and a colleague."

"Male colleague or female colleague?" Su Shouan was obviously not that easy to fool, asking one question after another.

"Dad, you are interrogating a prisoner. Didn't I just watch a movie? It's like checking your household registration, asking questions?"

"Yes, Shou'an, the children are old and have their own social space. Don't keep asking for details." Mrs. Su helped. Mrs. Su is not an old-fashioned woman who has never seen the world. She and Su Shou'an have both lived abroad. Stayed.

"If she brings her boyfriend back and gets married, I won't worry about it anymore." Su Shouan pointed at Su Mo'er and said.

"Our Mo'er family is good-looking and outstanding. If you still worry about not being able to get married, don't worry." Mrs. Su said.

"Tell me, how many young talents have been introduced to her, but she either doesn't see them or just doesn't like them. What kind of one do you think she is looking for?"

"At least it can't be worse than dad, right?"

"Don't flatter me, I won't do this!" Su Shouan said he didn't like it, but in fact, the slight curve of the corner of his mouth betrayed his heart.

"Second sister is in love." The youngest son Su Haoran raised his head and said.

"Haoran, don't talk nonsense."

"Second sister, this woman who is in love is different. When my eldest sister and her eldest brother-in-law were in love in the past, she would come home just like you, with a smile on her face and humming a little tune. I heard it all. The fragrance of flowers comes in the spring. , Langli Grand..." ˆ ˆ ˆ "Look, look, Haoran can see it all." Su Shouan pointed at his youngest son and said, "Second girl, you still don't admit it?"

"Mo'er, are you in love? Is there anything you can't say?" Mrs. Su also became curious.

"Mom, we just met not long ago..."

"What's the other person's name and what does he do?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Su immediately became energetic and asked.

"His name is Cheng Mo. I don't know what he does specifically."

"What, you don't even know what the other person does?" Su Shouan's voice suddenly rose an octave.

"Mom, I'm in a relationship with him. As for what he does for a living, what does it matter?" Su Mo'er could say that Cheng Mo had been on the battlefield, killed Japanese soldiers, and was an instructor in the Lixing Society, working as a spy.

What my father hates the most is "a spy". If he knew that Cheng Mo was a spy, he would definitely not agree to their being together.

"What do you expect a man to do without a serious job and be able to support a family in the future?" Su Shouan said seriously.

"Dad, Cheng Mo is very good to me."

"Daughter, you know about the white-faced man in Shanghai. He looks like he has honey in his mouth. You have never seen it before. Give Dad Cheng Mo's address and Dad will arrange for someone to investigate. If he is still good, Duty, even if he doesn’t have a job, dad won’t beat up mandarin ducks, but if he is a slippery man, dad will not allow you to be together!”

"dad!"

"This matter is non-negotiable. If you don't listen, from now on Lao Hu will pick me up from and to get off work every day, and let your mother arrange blind dates during weekends off!" Su Shou'an said decisively.

"I don't know where he lives. We met in Hong Kong. He said he had a sister in Shanghai. This was the first time we met in Shanghai." Su Moer lowered her head and explained.

"Hong Kong, is it you who went to the University of Hong Kong to study a while ago?"

"Yeah." Of course Su Mo'er didn't dare to say that she and Cheng Mo met at the field hospital in the Third War Zone. She went to join the volunteer service team without telling her family. Because she showed some knowledge of first aid, she was assigned I went to the medical aid station, worked as a temporary nurse at the field hospital, and then went to the Qingpu class.

"So that's it. How old is he this year, how tall is he, and what is his education level?" Mrs. Su immediately became concerned.

"Mom, you want to know, next time I bring someone home, you can ask him yourself." Su Mo'er said, anyway, that "little scoundrel" always said that he wanted to come home to meet his parents. Really? Come and see if he dares.

"Okay, just this weekend, you can take a rest and invite people to your home for dinner." Su Shou'an made the decision immediately.

"I have to ask him, what if he has plans?"

"What arrangement can be more important than meeting my future father-in-law?" Su Shouan said very domineeringly, "Just tell him this, if he doesn't dare to come, then don't even think about marrying my daughter!"

……

"Sneeze!" Cheng Mo, who was crouching at his desk under the desk lamp, sneezed. He woke up to wake up the runny nose and rubbed his cold and red hands.

Although there is a briquette stove in the house, it is still very cold. This kind of dampness and coldness is more unbearable than the dry cold in the north.

He thought of Nanjing. News in the newspapers said that the Japanese army surrounded Nanjing from three sides and that millions of soldiers and civilians were trapped in the city.

They may not realize that a catastrophe is coming. Unfortunately, he can't do anything in this concession.

This kind of thing didn't happen, and there was no intelligence indicating that the Japanese army would do something in Nanjing that would make people and gods angry. How could he give a warning?

Not to mention the high-level officials don’t believe it, even ordinary people don’t believe it.

I can only kill more Japanese in the future to avenge them.

The speed of handwriting is indeed not as fast as typing. It takes five or six hours to finish 10,000 words. Sometimes he also needs to think. Therefore, he can only write up to 5,000 words a day. This is still using up all the time available. superior.

Fortunately, the story of "Ghost Husband" is not long, with a total of less than 100,000 words, and can be written in less than a month at most.

Stingy Dai Yunong, if you were more cheerful and provided more funds, would you still have to worry about money?
