Chapter 449.
“Kid, kid don’t you crave, after Laha is the year ……”
It’s another year of Laha.
Before he even arrived home, he could smell the sweet aroma of the family’s Laba congee.
Drinking the Laha congee, Cheng Mo asked Nie Xiaoyu, “Xiaoyu, it looks like it’s going to be the New Year, do you want to go home?”
“I ……” Nie Xiaoyu froze, her that home, go back to what is the point, the family dislike, around the neighbors is pointing at the eyes.
If she went back, she was only afraid that it would be more difficult.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t go back, spend the New Year’s Eve with us.” Cheng Mo added.
“Mr. and Mrs. need me to stay, I’ll stay.” Nie Xiaoyu said in a small voice.
“We ……” Su Moer was just about to open her mouth when Cheng Mo stopped her, “Of course, I’m busy at work, Moer is pregnant and can’t take care of herself, I really don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have you at home. ”
“Then I’ll stay.”
“Well, good, the Spring Festival was supposed to be a vacation for you to go home, now you stay, during the New Year, double your salary.” Cheng Mo said.
“Thank you sir.” Nie Xiaoyu gave an excited cry, suddenly realizing that it’s not appropriate to thank Cheng Mo alone, she hurriedly bowed again at Su Moer, “Thank you Mrs. as well.”
“You work seriously and are dexterous, I and Mori both like you, in the future, treat this place as your own home.”
“Yes, sir, I will definitely do my work well, serve madam well, and repay you and madam’s kindness.” Nie Xiaoyu said and knelt down, wanting to kowtow to Cheng Mo and Su Moer.
“Xiaoyu, get up, we don’t practice this reasoning in our family.” Cheng Mo hurriedly reached over and pulled Nie Xiaoyu up from the ground.
“Drink congee, Xiaoyu, the Lunar New Year congee you boiled here is really good, it warms the stomach, and it’s also sweet but not greasy, it’s really good.”
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, at work, Cheng Mo received a call from Tony Kai Ziwei’s secretary from Jardine’s Bazaar, asking him to go there.
Cheng Mo didn’t know what was going on, but it was Tony Kaiser’s call and he was told to go to Jardine Matheson, so naturally he had to go.
After explaining the matter, he drove to Jardine Matheson in person.
He is Jardine Matheson’s acquaintance, go in naturally without informing, directly run to the third floor Tony Kai Ziwei’s office.
At the door, he slightly organized his attire and then knocked on the door.
“Please come in!” Inside floated out a pure London accent, it is Tony Kai Ziwei’s voice.
Cheng Mo pushed the door and walked in.
Tony Kai Ziwei was alone in his office, waving his handwriting on a document with the quill pen he was used to signing.
A lit cigar rested on the shelf, a wisp of green smoke rising.
“Cheng, you’re here, wine or coffee?”
“Coffee.” Cheng Mo bent over a little, Tony Kai Ziwei rang the bell on the table, the secretary came in, and he instructed someone to bring in a cup of coffee for Cheng Mo.
“Thanks.” Cheng Mo said a thank you and walked straight to the edge of the sofa and sat down.
It could be seen that Tony Kai Ziwei still had some official business to deal with and needed to wait for a while, being able to go into his office and wait was enough to show the closeness of their relationship.
Ordinary people, can only wait outside, and may not even get him to see you.
A few moments later, the tall female secretary with a cup of hot coffee came in, put on the coffee table in front of Cheng Mo. Cheng Mo picked it up, took a sip, put it down, and then waited there quietly, not opening his mouth either, as if he, a human being, didn’t exist in the first place.
“Sorry, there are a few documents that I need to sign right away, so I’ve kept you waiting.” After about a quarter of an hour, Tony Kai Ziwei finally finished his work at hand, got up and walked over, greeting with a smile.
“Mr. Chief Dong has an unspeakable charm when he’s working, I believe that many girls will be charmed beyond belief when they see him!”
“Cheng, your speech is getting more and more fleshy, did Miss Su teach you that?”
“She wouldn’t say these words, these words of mine are from the bottom of my heart.” Cheng Mo was busy saying, there are some words that are not embarrassing for oneself to say, then the ones that are embarrassing are the others.
“Looking for you to come is one thing to say to you.” Tony Kai Ziwei said, “When the Police Department reported at the General Office of the Bureau of Public Works, they mentioned a case, the case of the murder on the night of January 11th at the More Stage, Commissioner Akagi said in the report that you played a key role in the detection of this case, and asked for a commendation for you.”
“Chief Akagi asked for a commendation for me?” Cheng Mo froze, is this the sun coming out of the west? “Surprised?”
“A little.” Cheng Mo nodded.
“They arrested someone on their side and said that it was your side that provided the clues, it’s only right that you have a share of this credit.” Tony Kai Ziwei said.
“My side also caught a ‘little yakuza’ by chance, he didn’t want to squat in the squad room, so he said that there were clues provided in this case, so I turned the person over.” Cheng Mo said, “I didn’t expect that it would really help them.”
“Why don’t you investigate this case yourself?” Tony Kai Ziwei asked.
“Since the case has been handed over to Director Akagi to take charge, if I hold clues in my hands and deliberately conceal them, but also to compete for credit for my own private investigation, that’s not directly opposing Director Akagi!” Cheng Mo hemmed and hawed and said.
Tony Kai Ziwei also laughed.
Cheng Mo does not want to work directly against Akagi pro, this is naturally understandable, the Japanese took the case, if someone secretly sabotage the case, if the case can not be solved, then in the end will be counted on who’s head?
Cheng Mo didn’t want to get into this mess, which was completely understandable.
“They’ve arrested someone there, there’s been a breakthrough in the case, it’s been basically confirmed that the one who assassinated Mr. Yu Ye Feng was an action brigade under the Shanghai 1 area of the military junta, the captain is also called Chen Mo, but it’s not the same name as you.”
“Ah?” Cheng Mo was shocked, he didn’t know much about the personnel of the Military Unification’s Shanghai Area 1, at most he knew some of the people at the top level, below the middle level, he didn’t know at all, not to mention that it was impossible for people to show him the roster.
But such a situation was really out of his expectation.
“Mr. Tony, you wouldn’t be suspecting me, right?”
“How can that be, you Chinese, there are many with the same name, what’s more, Chief Akagi and Inspector Miyamoto have confirmed that this Chen Mo is not the same as you, and they have also taken your photo for him to identify, and that person did not identify it as you.”
“Mr. Tony, don’t scare me, you know best what my identity is, to say that I have contact with the Junta side, that is still carried out under your authorization, how could I be the leader of the Junta’s operation team.” Cheng Mo busily stroked his chest once and said.
“Cheng, don’t worry, I do believe in you.” Tony Kai Ziwei came over and gently patted Cheng Mo’s left shoulder and said.
“Thank you for your trust.”
“If it was you, how could you give such an important clue to Akagi, and also, how could that Akagi capture one of their key figures with the people you captured, it’s no different from suicide!” Tony Kai said to himself.
“Your analysis is so right.”
“Cheng, what do you think is the next step to take in this case up to this point?”
“Mr. Tony, are you thinking that if you let Director Akagi investigate like this, isn’t it not quite appropriate, and it will cause retaliation and backlash from the Junta side, because, they will be targeting the Concession Patrol Office?” Cheng Mo and Tony Kai Ziwei had long had a tacit understanding, and immediately understood what he was trying to say.
“If the Japanese solved this case, wouldn’t all similar cases in this future be handed over to them?” Tony Kai Ziwei asked.
“Yes. They will be able to legitimately interfere with the policing within my concession.” Cheng Mo nodded.
“Cheng, you do understand me.”
