After Waking up Beside the Villain

Meng Wangda has not been to this street for some time. Since he gave this watch shop to his younger son Meng Yun, he has only been there three or four times, and he will not come. If you want to be a man, you have to stand up earlier to look like a man.

Today, under the scorching sun, I came to the door of this clock shop again, and looked at the white-painted face, but suddenly I didn't recognize it.

and at the top stood a dove made of brass.

It looks beautiful and foreign, and it blends perfectly with the tone of this ten-mile foreign field.

But Meng Wangda didn't like this very much.

He was born in the fifth year of Guangxu, and his family was closely related to a governor of Guangdong and Guangxi at that time.

Then the naval battle broke out, the Guangdong and Guangxi were in chaos, and the governor was beheaded for no reason. Meng Wangda's grandfather was afraid of causing trouble, so he gritted his teeth and took his family north to Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

However, neither his grandfather nor his father's generation was a very useful person.

Before this house was completely destroyed, Meng Wangda was allocated two shops.

At that time, it was about two or three years after Xuantong, and a new trend was coming. Meng Wangda had a lot of blood in his heart, and he was not willing to bury himself like this, so he sold some properties and came to Haicheng to make a business.

But in places like Haicheng, various forces are intertwined, and it is easy to squeeze an extra foot.

Meng Wangda is a smart man with long sleeves and good dance. Although he has suffered a lot of losses, he has also made a lot of money, but in short, he has made some names here.

Disheng, almost on a par with the officials in shipbuilding and alkali production, has become a famous business tycoon in Haicheng.

It was during that time that he gave this watch shop to Meng Yun.

"Master?"

Xu is Meng Wangda standing under the big sun outside the door for too long, which attracted the attention of the people in the watch industry.

The guy looked inside suspiciously, recognized Meng Wangda, and hurriedly came out: "Master, why are you free today?"

Meng Wangda withdrew his gaze from the signboard and glanced at the guy who greeted him with a flattering smile. The guy is the old man he sent to the watch shop, but he doesn't wear a jacket anymore. He has changed into a cheap suit, and the board is standing upright. It's quite like that.

"I have nothing to do, come and see."

As soon as the copper wind chime by the door rang, the man diligently led Meng Wangda in.

"Where are you three young masters?" Meng Wangda glanced left and right, except for this guy, there were no familiar faces, not even the master who had been repairing watches for decades.

"You know, it's not even the end of the month, there are accounts to be paid, and the third master is reconciling the accounts upstairs." The man replied, "Master, why don't you sit first, I'll go ask Come down, sir."

Meng Wangda waved his hand: "Okay, I'll be busy with your work, I'll just go upstairs to find the third child. Don't come here to pay attention to my own place."

Speaking, he didn't wait for the man to react, he lifted his robe and went upstairs.

The guy tried to stop him, but he didn't. Although the third young master had told him that no one would be seen and that he was not to be disturbed at noon, it was Meng Wangda who had come at this time. In his own place, when his own father went to see his son, he had to stop him.

Meng Wangda noticed the embarrassment flashed by the man, but pretended not to see it, and went straight to the second floor.

He never doubted that there was something wrong with Meng Yun, who was always honest, but at this time, he had to think more.

The first floor of the watch shop is full of counters, and the second floor is a few rooms used for watch repairs, where some imported instruments are placed, and there are masters busy inside.

At the end of these repair rooms is an office with the door closed and quiet.

Meng Wangda clenched his fingers and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Who?"

The door responded quickly, and a male voice sounded with a little vigilance.

Meng Wangda said: "I."

How come?"

"I'm here to do some business, I was passing by, I just wanted to see you. These days you don't even go back to the old house, you can't even see you, your mother will blame me for letting you Out."

Meng Wangda said casually, waved Meng Yun's blocked arm, walked into the office, looked around, came to the table, and flipped through the piles of ledgers: "Two early Heaven doesn’t do anything, and when the day comes, I have to hand it over to my family, so I just crawl, you—”

Meng Yun smiled bitterly: "I don't want to either, Dad, wasn't that busy before?"

Meng Wangda raised his eyes and looked at his son who he hadn't seen for a while, and suddenly said, "You reconcile the accounts, why are you still locking the door?"

As if she didn't expect Meng Wangda to ask this question suddenly, Meng Yun was stunned for a moment, and after two seconds he said, "It's not like you don't know, I am easily distracted when I study and do things. The same is true for this account reconciliation, once the door is closed, if no one else comes to disturb me, I can turn my head faster."

After a brief explanation, Meng Yun's words changed: "Dad, you are running around under the sun, but it is going to be hot. You sit down, I will pour you a bowl of herbal tea, Clear the heat."

Speaking, Meng Yun stretched out his hand to help Meng Wangda and led him to the bench where he was entertaining guests.

Meng Wangda did not refuse, and sat down as Meng Yun wanted. When Meng Yun was walking back and forth, serving and pouring tea, he was also carefully observing this spacious office.

He originally came to test Meng Yun with a complicated mind, but when he first saw it, he found it strange, and he couldn't help but suspect something. Looking at this office, he always felt that something was wrong.

But before he could figure out what was wrong, Meng Yun handed over the herbal tea.

Meng Wangda knocked on the lid of the tea bowl and asked, "I haven't been home for the past two months. Besides schoolwork and watchmaking, what are you busy with?"

Meng Yun smiled and said with a bit of embarrassment: "Didn't you say last time that at my age, I should bring you back a daughter-in-law, your son these two months I'm struggling."

No trace of lying was found in Meng Yun's expression, Meng Wangda was slightly relieved, took a sip of herbal tea, and said with a smile: "You kid, you don't look down on the ones your mother chose, If you want to pursue free love, what's the matter, you're in love now?"

"How old are you and who belong to?"

Is it a parent? When it comes to this kind of thing, I can't help but ask.

Meng Yun said: "She is a teacher in a girls' middle school. She is 19 this year, and her family is also doing business, but not in Haicheng, but in Jinling. I met her at a reading meeting. , I liked it very much when I saw it, and I saw it a few times later, and then I had contacts..."

Meng Wangda listened quietly, a gratifying smile appeared on his face, he just smiled, but the corner of his eyes suddenly glanced at the window sill in front of him, it seemed that there was a vague A gray and black trace, like a shoe print on it.

The smile froze for a moment, and he quickly lowered his head and covered it up without a trace.

"Since you have a sweetheart, then treat them well, and when you have free time, take them home to have a meal together." Meng Wangda drank another sip of herbal tea, only to feel his throat full. It was sour, "Calculate your account carefully, your father and I still have things to do, so I won't stay any more."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out.

Meng Yun got up and said farewell.

As he approached the door of the office, Meng Wangda suddenly stopped.

He turned around and pressed Meng Yun's shoulder, and said in a low voice like a mosquito: "Son, do you...do you want to talk to Dad?"

Meng Yun met Meng Wangda's eyes and looked at him deeply, his expression was startled, but he saw Meng Wangda avert his eyes and look back at the back of the bench he was sitting on , there is a set of mahogany table and chair cabinets, tall and strong.

Meng Wangda felt the instantly tense and stiff muscles under his palm.

Meng Yun whispered: "Dad, what do you know?"

Seeing Meng Yun's expression, Meng Wangda's heart instantly cooled down.

He clenched Meng Yun's shoulder tightly and opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, he heard an unfamiliar voice in the office: "Jiang Chengjun, why don't you keep your father, Have another cup of tea."

Meng Wangda turned his head suddenly and saw a limping man with a wound on his leg coming out from behind the cabinet, staring at him coldly and maliciously.

At this time.

Near Dove Watches.

Amidst a series of chaotic footsteps, Chu Yunsheng and Yu Jingzhi followed a few men who were chasing the bloodstains, walked through the twists and turns of the alley, and came to a tall old locust tree under the tree.

"Sir, the blood is gone here."

Liu Er, who was checking the surroundings, came over and said in a low voice.

Yu Jingzhi's short body looked at the drop of blood suddenly cut off in the center of the alley, then raised his head and glanced around, and said, "What do these two houses next door do?"

Liu Er said: "It's all ordinary people. I've let the patrol room go in and search, and found nothing."

Chu Yunsheng was also observing the bloodstains left on and off this road.

Except for the central part of the alley, there was no blood on either side of the piles, the gray-black walls or the tree trunks.

This does not make sense.

If the wound was treated at this time and the bleeding was temporarily stopped, but I did not see more blood shed here, after all, staying in place for the time of bandaging will always leave more bloodstains. But if it wasn't dealt with, how could the bloodstain suddenly disappear?

In other words, this person found something temporarily, covered the wound, and quickly fled into somewhere.

But there is no trace of him in this alley.

It would be unrealistic for him to cover the wound and hide somewhere far away. He was shot in the thigh and has run so far. Even if his physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary people, he should have no strength, and it is impossible to go too far.

"Could there be some of his accomplices here to meet him?"

After having guessed by Chu Yunsheng's two murderers at Fan Chengmei's place, Yu Jingzhi first guessed whether there was a second person here.

And that makes sense.

His accomplices came here to support him, covered the wound, and left him quickly enough to let him escape a short distance without blood.

Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng took a few steps towards the street outside the alley and asked Liu Er, "What houses or shops are there within 100 meters?"

Liu Ergang has walked around in this area, after a cursory observation of these, he said after a little thought: "In addition to the two families I just searched, there are two restaurants, a bank, a A bank, a watch shop..."

"The clock shop?" Yu Jingzhi looked over, "Which clock shop?"

Liu Er was stunned and said, "Boss Meng's Baige watch shop."
