Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

"Chief Hu..." Although Li Ningsheng was a bit nerdy, he was not stupid. He immediately understood the hidden meaning of Su Bai's words.

"Don't tell anyone about this. You probably don't know how many people are eyeing our streptomycin right now, right?"

Li Ningsheng nodded: "I don't know, but I know."

He might have been a little nervous and started to speak incoherently.

But even if the meaning was made clear, although he didn't know how many people were eyeing streptomycin, it was normal for such an important drug to be coveted by others.

Xu Tianyi on the side insisted on asking, "Do you know or not?"

"It's God's will!" Su Bai stopped Xu Tianyi and told Li Ningsheng not to rush into choosing someone. He should think about it carefully for a day. It would not be too late to choose tomorrow, but he could make the decision today.

First, we need to clear out a house in the South District, think about the layout of the new laboratory, and what equipment to add, and make a detailed plan.

Pooh!

Su Bai spat at himself again. All this trouble would cost money again.

After Li Ningsheng left, Su Bai asked Xu Tianyi to retrieve the factory's personnel files, hoping to find some information about Hu Songzhai.

The files in that era were too simple. Not every person had a copy, but everyone was registered on a few forms.

In the column for Hu Songzhai, only his name and age were recorded, not even his home address.

However, he did have a telephone.

This is very strange. The cost of maintaining a telephone is very high these days, dozens of dollars a month, which is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

But Xu Tianyi said that this list was left by Mr. Xu, and Mr. Xu called back the workers from the original factory based on this list.

Later, Zi Yan had someone copy it again, removing those who were not recruited back and adding a few new workers.

So, Hu Songzhai's home had a telephone when the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory was still in the hands of the French?

Su Bai immediately called the police station, and Han Charlie happened to be there.

She asked Han Charlie to help her find the address of Hu Songzhai's phone from the telephone company.

"What will you do after you find out?" Xu Tianyi was puzzled.

Su Bai feels that we cannot always deal with the opponent's moves passively. It is necessary to take the initiative when conditions permit.

Hu Songzhai is different from Li Ningsheng. He is not interested in streptomycin. Even if he is interested, he will not understand it if you explain it to him.

The reason why he ran to the factory director's office to eavesdrop must be that he was instructed by an outsider.

If this is the case, the potential enemy outside has already known that the southern area inside the Fahua Pharmaceutical Factory is a secret area.

Fortunately, we have streptomycin as a cover, which can help us hold out for a while.

Hu Songzhai is an old employee of the factory. Although Su Bai did not let him go to the South District after taking over the factory, he was familiar with this place before.

"It's broken!" Su Bai slammed the table and stood up.

"What's wrong?" Xu Tianyi asked.

"Could he... have entered the South District when it was dark and no one was around?"

Xu Tianyi thought about it and said, "Isn't it possible?"

There used to be a wall between the South Area and the North Area, including walls between several workshops for different types of products in the North Area, and between the office area and the workshop area.

There is a door on each wall, but it is actually just a neatly trimmed opening without a door installed.

After Su Bai took over the pharmaceutical factory, he installed a large iron gate on the wall leading to the south area. Xu Tianyi and his colleagues would lock the door after get off work every day.

All the workshops in the South District have doors and are locked. Xu Tianyi said this because he has never found any abnormal situation and no one has ever entered.

Besides, the guards at the factory gate were instructed to patrol the factory every night.

But Su Bai felt that this was unreliable. Until now, he could only pray that Hu Songzhai had just been used by someone and had not sneaked into the South District in the dark.

One thing is certain: when Hu Songzhai resumed production at the pharmaceutical factory more than two months ago, he had not yet been bribed by his opponents.

"Starting tonight, someone must stay overnight in the South District!"

Su Bai made a decision immediately and arranged for Chang Shun to stay tonight.

But she quickly changed her mind and asked Liu Yiyan and Tietou to come.

However, he was not sure about Liu Yijian. He didn't know whether this guy would be obedient.

About half an hour later, Han Charlie called. He had found out that the address of the phone was No. 14, Pétain Road.

Rue Pétain is a diagonal road that runs northwest from the southeast corner of the French Concession to Rue Joffre. It is also considered a relatively prosperous road in the French Concession. How could Hu Songzhai live here?

Han Charlie told Su Bai that he had sent a patrolman to No. 14, Pétain Road to see what kind of house it was. He would have news back soon and he would call Su Bai again.

"Don't worry, Miss Lan, this place is also under my jurisdiction!"

Han Charlie's efficiency was really high. In just twenty minutes, his phone rang again. No. 14, Pétain Road was a grocery store with a telephone inside. Residents in the surrounding area used this phone to make calls. If someone called to find a resident here, the people in the grocery store would run errands to call them.

These days, not many ordinary people make phone calls, not many people often come here to make phone calls, and they all know the people in the store.

This makes sense, as Hu Songzhai couldn't afford to use a phone.

"It's easy. We can go to this grocery store to find out where Hu Songzhai lives!" Xu Tianyi said this and was glared at by Su Bai again.

He scratched his head in embarrassment: "We can't do that, right? It's easy to alert the enemy!"

"You're finally smart for once." Su Bai said half praising and half criticizing.

"Let my brother do it!" Han Xiaoxiao said on the side. This is a very simple thing for his brother.

Su Bai called Han Charlie again and asked him to come to No. 55 Haig Road at noon for lunch and to ask him for help with something.

"You go back first," Su Bai said to Han Xiaoxiao, "Let Grandma Jiang cook some good dishes that your brother likes!"

After Han Xiaoxiao left, Su Bai and Xu Tianyi went into the South District together and told Liu Yiyan her idea, asking him and Tietou to live in the South District from now on.

"You dislike me, don't you?" Liu Yi immediately yelled, "Su Bai, I've never been so obedient since I was a child. I do whatever you tell me to do. Isn't that okay?"

Su Bai's face tightened: "Listen, the safety here is as important as my life!"

"Ah, really?" Liu Yikou's attitude changed immediately when he heard Su Bai say this, but he made a request that Su Bai must meet with him at least once a day so that he could just take a look at him.

This little bandit leader revealed his infatuated side, and at this moment, Su Bai could see that he was sincere.

"What's the point of looking at me? Can I eat or wear it?"

"Just take a look, or I won't do it!"

"How shameless! A toad wants to eat swan flesh!" Xu Tianyi on the side couldn't help but say this.

"Get lost!" Liu Yiyan immediately hit back: "What do you care about what happens between me and my wife?"
