In the small courtyard.

Bai Jingshu got dressed and put on a headscarf.

He opened the door and looked around carefully.

It was quiet outside.

Then she went out and walked into the alley in front.

After taking a few steps forward, she squatted down and pulled out a brick from under the right wall.

He took out a small iron box from inside.

Opening the iron box, Bai Jingshu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the items were intact.

Putting the iron box in her arms, she got up and walked to the street, hailing a rickshaw.

"Go to No. 213 Pomegranate Street."

"Okay, sit tight."

The coachman reminded him, then he pulled up the car and walked towards the destination as fast as he could.

Twenty minutes later.

The rickshaw stopped in front of a pastry shop.

After paying the money, Bai Jingshu covered her headscarf and walked towards the store.

However, she just walked around inside.

After a while, he came out again.

This time, after confirming that it was safe, she walked into a drug store on the corner.

"Shopkeeper, buy some medicine."

There were not many customers in the store.

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man about forty years old, who is doing abacus on the counter.

Hearing the movement, he looked up and asked with a smile.

"What medicine should I buy, Miss?"

Bai Jingshu said casually: "It's for skin moss."

The shopkeeper looked slightly startled and replied to her: "Just scratch it and it will be fine. No need to apply medicine."

Bai Jingshu smiled and said, "It can't be cured without medicine."

"It's very painful to apply the medicine."

"If you want to cure a disease, how can you be afraid of pain?"

The conversation between the two sounded quite normal, but it was actually a set of code words for communication.

After confirming Bai Jingshu's identity, the shopkeeper put down his calculations and said, "Miss, the medicine is in the warehouse. Come with me."

"it is good."

Bai Jingshu followed the shopkeeper to the warehouse at the back.

There is a secret room inside.

After the two of them went in and sat down, the shopkeeper asked straight to the point: "Are you a bird?"

Bai Jingshu nodded.

"Well, you're Flint, right?"

"Correct."

The shopkeeper was slightly surprised.

This time they saw each other's true appearance for the first time.

In the past, communication was carried out by sending letters.

He didn't expect Asuka to be a girl.

Moreover, she is such a pure and beautiful girl.

"Asuka, are you in a hurry this time?"

Under normal circumstances, the two of them would not meet.

Only in emergencies will we choose to contact you in person.

"Please be sure to give this to Mr. Huang."

Bai Jingshu took out the iron box and pushed it over.

"This is what Congressman Song entrusted to me."

"Congressman Song?!"

The shopkeeper's brows jumped twice.

He suppressed the shock in his heart, pointed at the iron box and asked, "What's inside?"

"I don't know, but it must be something very important, because Congressman Song protected this thing until he died."

Bai Jingshu shook her head.

Later, she told the other party what happened on the ship that day.

"Mr. Huang received news that the president was secretly discussing something with the Japanese. The specific content is unknown.

Congressman Song seemed to know something inside and tried his best to stop it, but to no avail.

Instead, he wanted to reveal relevant content to the outside world and use public opinion to put pressure on the president.

Mr. Huang specially sent me to join the ship, but I accidentally discovered that someone disguised as a crew member got in and planted a bomb in the control room.

So I went to report to Congressman Song, but I didn't expect that he had been shot dead.

When he was dying, he handed the iron box to me.

Later, I jumped into the river before the ship exploded. Although I narrowly escaped, I killed an innocent person..."

The shopkeeper consoled him: "You don't need to blame yourself, it's not your fault."

Bai Jingshu was silent for a while and said: "I was worried that the group of people who assassinated Congressman Song would find me, so I hid for several days and only dared to come and meet you after there was no danger."

"No wonder I haven't heard from you during this period. I contacted you using code words and there was no response."

The shopkeeper was stunned and then asked, "Is the place where you are now safe?"

"Yeah, it's safe."

"Well, if you work hard and wait for two more days, when I contact Mr. Huang, I will send someone to pick you up."

"Row."

"The background of the group that blew up the ship is not simple. Maybe they are still looking for you. Just in case, you should not show your face easily in the past two days."

"Yeah, I know."

Bai Jingshu nodded.

When he stood up, he hesitated and said: "You...can you lend me some money?"

"it is good."

The shopkeeper agreed without hesitation.

He didn't ask what the money was for.

Ask directly: "How much do you want?"

"Ten dollars."

One minute later.

Bai Jingshu went out with ten yuan in her arms.

She was in no hurry to get home.

I want to buy some gifts for Lin Mo.

Thanks for taking care of him over the past few days.

After thinking about it, she went to Mingtang Street.

"Okay, okay, ladies and gentlemen, my sister and I haven't eaten in three days."

On the street of Mingtang, two little beggars were begging from passers-by.

Not far away, an old dwarf man was clasping his feet with one hand and gnawing on half a chicken leg he picked up from somewhere with the other hand.

But his eyes were staring straight at the two little beggars.

Just at this time, Bai Jingshu came over.

The dwarf old man took a look and felt that it was quite beautiful, but also looked familiar.

Suddenly, he looked startled.

He hurriedly took out a portrait from his arms, looked at it twice, and couldn't help but smile.

He finished the chicken drumstick in his hand in two or two mouthfuls, took a mouthful, and then threw it away.

After wiping the handle carelessly on his body, the dwarf old man walked up to a little beggar and whispered a few words.

This little beggar is a little girl.

After listening to the dwarf old man's words, she nodded, held the broken bowl in her hand, and immediately ran towards Bai Jingshu.

He gently tugged at the corner of her clothes from behind.

"elder sister."

Bai Jingshu paused.

She was a little wary at first, but when she turned around and saw that the person calling her was a dirty little girl, she relaxed.

Seeing the little girl holding a broken bowl in her hand, she thought the other person was here to beg.

Looking into the other person's dark and shining eyes, she hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of ocean and handed it to her.

"Little sister, take the money and buy some food! Remember, don't let others see it!"

Bai Jingshu didn't put the money in the broken bowl, but put it in the little girl's hand and asked her to hold it.

He didn't dislike the other party's dirty little hands at all.

The little girl was a little surprised.

His eyes were full of struggle.

But when she remembered the cruel methods used by the dwarf old man to deal with disobedient children.

She pursed her lips again.

Pointing to the end of the street, he said, "Thank you, sister. There is a brother over there who asked to see you."

"elder brother?"

Bai Jingshu immediately thought of Lin Mo.

However, this is not right either!

If he was looking for me, he would definitely come directly. There was no need to ask a little girl to take the message!

has a problem!

Although Bai Jingshu was not a professional agent, she had undergone some special training and immediately became alert.

She said with a cold face: "Little sister, lying to others is not a good habit!"

"Sister, I..."

She struggled in her heart for a long time, gritted her teeth, stood on tiptoes and said softly: "Sister, someone wants to harm you, please run away!"
