After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again
Chapter 55 Jiangcheng's Mission (3)
A group of people in a state of panic at the hotel entrance seemed to have found their backbone when Diao Yongting woke up, and they immediately calmed down.
Everyone stood in place, waiting for Diao Yongting's instructions.
Diao Yongting glanced at Tao Junle who was still unconscious, and said to Yang Jixia, "Brother-in-law, take him to the hospital and have the doctor check if there are any drugs or alcohol in his system. You two should go with him. Be sensible and take the child over quickly. Don't let my brother-in-law get tired.
Everyone else! Go back, I have something to ask you! "
When I turned around, I saw Tong Jia standing at the front desk.
Tong Jia seemed to have just reacted and rushed directly to Tao Junle and Yang Jixia. When she took Tao Junle from Yang Jixia, she smeared a little bit of sleeping pills on Tao Junle's nose.
The dosage is not large, so the patient will not be in a coma for too long, but when a blood test is done at the hospital, a certain amount of residual drug components can still be detected.
After Tong Jia finished these things, she felt at ease and let Diao Yongting's men take Tao Junle from her arms.
While Yang Jixia put his hand on his upper arm to calm himself, Tong Jia grabbed Yang Jixia's arm and told him what she had discovered last night using Morse code on the inside of his arm.
After knowing that Tian Ma and Lao Qian were currently handing over the information found from Watanabe's house at home, Yang Jixia felt cold sweat on his back.
In order to prevent the two from leaving the hotel at the same time, Diao Yongting would send someone to the courtyard to affect Tian Ma and Lao Qian.
Tong Jia made trouble again, saying that Yang Jixia looked relaxed and didn't care about Tao Junle at all, and sent Yang Jixia back to the hotel.
When Yang Jixia returned to the hotel, he just saw someone coming out of Diao Yongting's room with a tube of blood.
He knew that Yang Jixia was worried about Tao Junle, so he asked someone to check his blood composition and Tao Junle's blood composition to see if there were any traces of traditional Chinese medicine.
If there are signs of Chinese medicine, we also need to analyze whether the medicine he and Tao Junle took is the same.
Yang Jixia didn't know what Tao Junle and Tong Jia did last night, so he simply thought that Tao Junle and Diao Yongting were unconscious because they were drugged.
Therefore, when Diao Yongting examined his expression, no flaws were revealed.
Diao Yongting was sure that Yang Jixia had no objection to him sending his own blood sample for examination alone, nor did he stop him, and his suspicion of him was alleviated a little.
He adjusted his mood and tried to use the same tone as before to ask: "Brother-in-law, didn't you accompany that little mute to the hospital? Why are you back again?"
Yang Jixia said: "Your sister came and saw Lele unconscious. She thought I had done something and started to make trouble with me again.
I was really upset, and there were people you sent following me. I didn't want to argue with her, so I came back.
Brother-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?
Give me something to do, so that your sister won’t come back and bother me when she sees me idle in the hotel.
I tell you, I'm really afraid of her.
The Hedong Lion in this house is truly more terrifying than the guns and cannons outside!"
As he spoke, he made an exaggerated expression towards Diao Yongting, as if he was trembling with fear.
Diao Yongting said: "Although I have never met my eldest sister before, I have heard many people in the Yue family say that my sister has a very gentle personality. If you, brother-in-law, hadn't hurt her before, she wouldn't have become like this.
But... I really need some help here, so I'd like to ask you, the big boss, to run some errands for me for a while.
As for the matter between you and my elder sister, I will ask my wife to help you persuade her when we return to Shanghai.
It's not good for this couple to always be on edge; they need to calm down and live a good life."
In his heart, Diao Yongting actually really hopes that the relationship between Yang Jixia and his wife will continue like this. Only in this way can he have the opportunity to interact with his cold, arrogant and beautiful sister-in-law.
But the polite words still sounded high-sounding.
Yang Jixia didn't respond to his words, but instead asked: "I didn't bring anyone with me this time, so you don't have to treat me as a boss, just a family member. Isn't it natural for family members to help out? Just tell me, what can I do?"
Upon hearing this, Diao Yongting frowned and asked the people around him, "Are you sure I went out last night?"
The three people who had been standing nearby nodded repeatedly, and the tallest one of them was pushed forward to directly answer Diao Yongting's question.
He bent down, his whole body shaking, and replied in a trembling voice: "Yes... yes, sir.
Last night upstairs...you...no, you...kept opening and closing the windows according to the signals.
Suddenly, one time the window didn't move for more than two minutes. We thought something had happened and wanted to go upstairs to check.
But… before we even reached the door, we saw you coming out of the hotel.
He even waved at us and said... No, he didn't say anything, but... We thought the wave meant the mission was over.
So...so...so...we..."
The voice behind him became smaller and smaller, and when he said "we", Yang Jixia could no longer hear it.
Even if he couldn't hear it, Yang Jixia knew that these three people would not have a good ending because of dereliction of duty.
He shook his head and looked at Diao Yongting.
Sure enough, Diao Yongting's face turned ashen, and he punched each of the three men who were shaking like sieves. The three men did not dare to fight back and fell to the ground under the force.
He originally wanted to use this to avoid the punches and kicks from behind, but Diao Yongting became more and more angry. He took out a pistol from his pocket and shot each of the three people before anyone could react.
The three men were beheaded on the spot and had no chance to explain.
In fact, when Diao Yongting fired the second shot, Yang Jixia thought about whether to stop him, but in order to avoid exposing Tong Jia, he held back.
However, in order to win over people and reduce his suspicion, when Diao Yongting was about to fire the third shot, he said aloud, "Wait."
Unfortunately, his voice was not as fast as Diao Yongting's bullet, and he still couldn't prevent the last person from dying.
After firing the third shot, Diao Yongting threw the gun to the ground and stared at the three bodies on the ground.
Because when Yang Jixia entered the room, someone was about to go out, so the door was not closed tightly.
After hearing the gunshots, the people at the hotel front desk and outside frantically looked for places to hide, fearing that they would be accidentally injured by stray bullets.
Yang Jixia immediately walked out the door, comforted the front desk staff, and asked the others guarding outside to go into the house to deal with the three bodies.
When he entered the room again, Diao Yongting had returned to the same state he was in when they talked just now.
Seeing Yang Jixia come in again, Diao Yongting said, "Brother-in-law, you don't have to worry about these chores.
I have something extremely important to do, and I really don't trust anyone else with it, so I'll have to trouble you to run it for me."
"What's the matter?" Yang Jixia asked as he walked to Diao Yongting.
Diao Yongting led Yang Jixia to the inner room of the suite, closed the door, and then opened his suitcase mysteriously.
He took out a password box from the suitcase and handed it to Yang Jixia.
He said: "Brother-in-law, this password box was brought by Mr. Watanabe when he came here yesterday.
It contained confidential documents concerning his business.
He felt like he was being watched, so he left the safe with me.
It’s not safe here anymore, so I can only transfer this safe to you. As long as you can bring it back to Shanghai intact, you will have done me a great favor.
When I get back, I will ask them to approve a few more projects for you.
When the time comes, whether you want land, people, or... an official position, it's up to you!"
Yang Jixia waved his hands and said, "I can't be an official, so it's better to give me something practical.
Our country China is in too much chaos now. Being an official has great responsibilities, and it is not easy to run away when encountering danger.
It’s fine for me to be an ordinary citizen, to secure my gains. If I see that the situation is not right, I will immediately seek refuge abroad.
When you have money in your hands, you can do whatever you want. Why make yourself uncomfortable? "
Diao Yongting rarely expressed his approval of Yang Jixia's statement.
He said, "Brother-in-law, I used to think you were a loser. You've read so many books, but you didn't even think about pursuing a career in government.
Now I know that you are the one with a clear mind."
Yang Jixia waved his hand and acted modestly.
He said, "Brother-in-law, it's better to keep this password box with you for the time being. There are so many people outside now. If I take it out directly, wouldn't it be obvious to others that the password box is with me?
This is too tempting and unsafe.
Do you think this approach will work?
If your sister and the others haven't come back by noon, I'll bring some food and go to the hospital to see Lele.
When I came back just now, the front desk clerk told me that your sister came so early to bring me chicken soup.
It seems that she also wants to reconcile with me, so I give her this way out.
After coaxing her, I took her back to Hushi first.
Then I'll come back and get the password box and mix it with her luggage so no one will suspect anything."
"Put the password box in my eldest sister's suitcase? Brother-in-law, are you going to tell my eldest sister about this?" Diao Yongting asked disapprovingly.
Yang Jixia shook his head, sighed, and said, "Brother-in-law, according to what you said, this password box is of vital importance to one's life, how could I just tell others about it casually?
You don't know how much property your sister has purchased in Jiangcheng.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talking about cheongsams, there should be no shortage of them in all four seasons. There are long sleeves, three-quarter sleeves, five-quarter sleeves, sleeveless, butterfly sleeves, etc. Just by the sleeves, there are at least ten different sets of sleeves.
It's ten sets, not ten pieces.
Do you know what a set is?
A set is a set that includes shoes, socks, handbags, earrings, necklaces, headwear, coats and hats.
This is just cheongsams, not including trousers and dresses.
Adding daily necessities, I estimate that her luggage alone would have to fill twenty or thirty boxes.
There were so many boxes that she couldn't keep track of them all by herself.
When the time comes, I can just put the password box in a suitcase and let her carry it. This will not only ensure the safety of the suitcase, but also make her happy, which is a win-win situation."
Diao Yongting smiled and nodded, saying, "That would only be possible if my brother-in-law has a big business and enough money to allow my eldest sister to buy so many clothes.
I think I shouldn't let my wife go to the dock to pick up my elder sister.
If she sees that my elder sister has so many clothes, she will definitely make trouble for me when I get back. Haha...
Brother-in-law, your headband is not well-fitted."
"Hey...your eldest sister is afraid that I will give my money to others. She doesn't know how to manage the household at all. I wish she could be as good at managing the household as my second sister.
When we get to Shanghai, you still have to let your second sister spend more time with your eldest sister and persuade her.
What's done is done, and I truly regret it." Yang Jixia expressed his feelings with a tone of envy and regret.
Diao Yongting patted his back and said, "Brother-in-law, as long as you bring the password box back to Shanghai safely, after I return to Shanghai and receive the award, we will go back to our hometown together.
My mother-in-law won't live long. When the time comes, I can let her educate my eldest sister personally.
No one can disobey the dying mother's instructions."
Yang Jixia nodded and was about to say something when the door of the suite was knocked loudly.
The man outside knocked on the door and said anxiously, "Sir, something happened. Big!"
Diao Yongting's expression changed and he went to open the door with a cold face.
As soon as the door opened, his confidant leaned close to his ear to speak.
He opened his heart and said, "Boss Yang is my brother-in-law. We are family. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. There is no need to hide it."
Yang Jixia smiled at Diao Yongting's confidant Diao Ren.
Diao Ren had no choice but to whisper, "Sir, something happened to Mr. Watanabe.
When we went to verify what happened last night with him, we found that everyone in his company was unconscious.
After waking those people up with water, they knew nothing and said that they had fallen asleep normally and they didn't know why they slept so deeply.
Mr. Watanabe's reaction after being woken up by being splashed with water was different from that of the others.
The others answered whatever we asked, but Mr. Watanabe seemed to not understand what we were asking at all and was very slow to respond.
"Nonsense, Watanabe doesn't speak Chinese very well. Why don't you ask the translator in his foreign company to translate it into Japanese for you?" Diao Yongting said with a serious face.
Diao Ren explained: "It's not as simple as not being able to understand Chinese, he seems to not even be able to understand Japanese.
Diao Yi and Diao Xin sent Mr. Watanabe to the hospital. Diao Li and Diao Zhi are still staying at the foreign company. I came back to give you the news.
How do you think we should handle this matter?"
Diao Yongting pursed his lips and glanced at Yang Jixia. Yang Jixia said, "I'd better go to the hotel kitchen first and ask them to make something delicious so that I can take it to the hospital to appease your eldest sister. You should just focus on your business first."
After Yang Jixia left, Diao Yongting asked, "Did he really not leave the room last night?"
Diao Ren said: "No, the five of us were watching him the whole time and we are absolutely sure that he never left."
"Damn it! If I had known he wasn't a suspect, I should have asked you to keep an eye on me. The five of you are much better than those three losers. You couldn't even recognize the person pretending to be me. I really kept them for nothing for so long.
You stay here, take care of the things outside, and accompany my good brother-in-law.
I'll go to the hospital first to check on Watanabe. I hope he hasn't forgotten the most important thing. "After saying this, Diao Yongting left with a gloomy face.
