Starting from 40, holding the Star Mall to lead the motherland

Chapter 77 A vest fell off

Shanye was dead, but Fukada Yumiko was still alive, and her danger was not over. However, considering the time, her elder brother Han Mengyang should be back, so she had to go back quickly, otherwise she would probably have to go to Hangzhou to find him.

Huang Shufen saw Han Hui and patted her arm twice: "How dare you be so brave to go to Suzhou by yourself?"

Han Hui saw that her eyes were bloodshot and guessed that she was worried that she hadn't rested enough. "Mom, I was too anxious, so I went to Suzhou to find my brother."

Huang Shufen said, "Your eldest brother came back yesterday evening. When he heard you were going to Suzhou, he was so anxious that he wanted to go back to Suzhou to look for you this morning, but I stopped him."

She felt that, given Han Hui's personality, she would return if she didn't find Han Mengyang. However, if Han Mengyang went to Suzhou again, the two of them would likely miss each other, and that would be a wasted trip. Of course, the main reason was that Han Hui had high martial arts skills and a quick mind, and she wasn't afraid of being bullied.

Han Hui hummed, touched her stomach and said, "Mom, I'm so hungry. Is there anything to eat at home?"

When Huang Shufen heard her say she was hungry, she didn't care about anything else: "There's nothing to eat at home. It takes a long time to cook. I'll buy it for you."

Han Hui hugged her arm and said with a smile, "Mom, let's go out to eat together? I know a restaurant with delicious food."

"Okay, let's go."

Before leaving, Huang Shufen left a note saying that Han Hui was back and they were going to have lunch. The note was placed on the dining table, visible as soon as she entered the room.

Han Hui realized she had missed one person after she left the house: "Mom, where's Xiaocao? Why isn't she home?"

Huang Shufen smiled and said, "Xiaoxue doesn't want to learn martial arts, so your Aunt He asked Xiaocao to learn with her. In this world, it would be great if Xiaocao could learn some leg and foot skills to protect herself."

Han Hui guessed that the conversation that day must have made He Sanmei feel a sense of crisis, so she placed more emphasis on martial arts. No matter what, it was always a good thing.

Han Hui had eaten her fill during the past three days, but she hadn't eaten well. Seeing a table full of her favorite dishes, she ate to her heart's content until she was stuffed.

Huang Shufen was amused and angry at the same time. She rubbed her belly and said, "Don't eat so much next time. If you like it, I'll cook for you when I get home.

Han Hui responded with a smile on her face.

The mother and daughter went back in a good mood, but when they got home and saw Han Mengyang's gloomy face, the smiles on their faces disappeared immediately.

Huang Shufen took Han Hui's hand and said, "Meng Yang, I told you Xiao Man will be fine. You're just worrying about nothing."

Han Mengyang was about to explode with rage. He suppressed his anger and said, "Why am I worrying about this for nothing? What other girl is so bold as her to go to Suzhou alone without telling her family."

He'd been incredibly worried when he'd learned Han Hui was in Suzhou. While Han Hui's martial arts skills were undoubtedly impressive, she'd only interacted with a limited number of people, leaving her as innocent as a blank slate, easily visible. Those sly figures out there were cunning as monkeys, sure to trick anyone. The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, and he immediately considered returning to Suzhou to find her.

Han Hui smiled and said, "Brother, you forgot, I took Mom from my hometown to Shanghai. The journey was really difficult. We were surrounded by bandits, Japanese invaders, and even human traffickers. It's only a short distance to Suzhou, it's nothing."

Han Mengyang was furious, but hearing this was like being poured with a bucket of cold water. After all, it was his fault that his mother and sister had suffered so much because of his poor arrangements.

Han Hui yawned and said, "Brother, I'm sleepy. I'm going upstairs to sleep first."

In order to prevent Han Mengyang from continuing to preach, she hurried upstairs to the room after saying this.

Huang Shufen saw her fleeing in panic, and a smile appeared on her face: "Have you eaten? If not, I'll give you another bowl of noodles."

Han Mengyang breathed a sigh of relief. Not only was his sister a worry, but his mother also protected her. "I'm going out to grab a bite to eat, then I'll send a telegram to my friends to tell them that Xiaoman is home and they shouldn't look for her anymore."

"Then you should go quickly!" Han Mengyang, who had just returned from outside, looked thoughtful when he heard that Han Hui had not gotten up yet.

Han Hui slept until after six o'clock, and dinner was already ready.

Han Mengyang saw her drinking chicken soup with an intoxicated look on her face, and suddenly said, "Xiaoman, Shanye is dead."

Han Hui hummed: "I know!"

Han Mengyang stared at her and said, "Didn't you just get home at noon? How did you know about this?"

Han Hui thought he was making a fuss: "It's all in the newspaper. I know there's something strange about it."

Han Mengyang said meaningfully: "Now that Shanye is dead, Fukada Yumiko won't have time to bother us. We are pretty lucky."

Huang Shufen could no longer remain calm and quickly asked what was going on.

Han Hui glared at Han Mengyang fiercely before telling her what had happened: "Brother said that woman was very vicious. If I had rejected her, she would have definitely caused trouble for us. But now her teacher is dead, and she can no longer act so arrogantly without anyone to back her up."

Han Mengyang added, "Mom, don't worry, she will be transferred soon."

The Special High Police Department has immense power, and many are eyeing the position of Section Chief. Whoever takes this position will be expected to promote their own people. As for the previous incumbent, they will definitely be pushed out.

Huang Shufen was so sad that her eyes turned red. She wiped her tears and said, "We just want to live a down-to-earth life. Why is it so difficult?"

Han Mengyang patted her shoulder gently: "Mom, don't worry, we will definitely be able to live a peaceful and stable life in the future."

Only by driving the Japanese out can they live a peaceful life.

After dinner, Han Hui asked Huang Shufen to rest, and she and Han Mengyang went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes.

Just as Han Hui was sweeping the floor, Han Mengyang suddenly shouted, "Butcher..."

Han Hui's heart skipped a beat, then she looked up at the door: "Brother, who are you talking to?"

Han Mengyang smiled: "You are very patient, which is good. But Xiaoman, you can hide it from others but not from me."

"Brother, I don't know what you are talking about."

Seeing her stubbornness, Han Mengyang asked, "Xiao Man, you said you were going to Suzhou to find me, but you were actually trying to hide your whereabouts so you could kill Shan Ye, right?"

Han Hui knew that he was very perceptive, so she tried hard to cover her vest, but she was still discovered unexpectedly.

"Brother, I'm not the butcher you mentioned. I went to Suzhou to look for you these days, but I couldn't find you."

Seeing that she still refused to admit it, Han Mengyang smiled and said, "Xiaoman, too many coincidences mean it's not a coincidence. But you did a great job this time. Killing Shanye not only solved the problem, but also prevented suspicion from falling on you."

On the other hand, if she wanted to kill Fukada Yumiko, she would definitely be under the surveillance of the Special Higher Police. My sister is not one to hide anything, and if she is targeted, it will be easy to reveal her flaws, which would be dangerous.

It was already confirmed, so there was no point in denying it. Alas, the butcher's disguise had fallen off.
