Yao Mu is 56 years old this year. Although his eyes are not dazed and his ears are not deaf, he is too old to sing at night. In addition, he has fallen ill as a policeman these years, so the clock doesn''t go to bed at nine o''clock on time.
Before the fall of Hong Kong, although there were no explicit regulations, only British people were qualified to live in the Taipingshan villa area where he lived. After Chongguang in Hong Kong, Yao Mu made great contributions to the Hong Kong Police Force with his life. After retirement, he was arranged by the director of the police force to buy the villa of xiufuton, the former director of the criminal investigation department and head of the Political Department of the Hong Kong Police Force.
He was the first Chinese police officer in the whole Hong Kong police force to live in Taipingshan villa area.
"Dingdong ~ dingdong ~" the switch bell installed at the door of the villa rang. Yao Mu was old and slept very shallow. In addition, he served as a policeman all the year round and was alert. Therefore, even across a yard, as soon as the doorbell rang, he vaguely heard it and sat up from his bed.
The old wife next to him reluctantly opened her eyes and looked at Yao Mu sitting up: "what''s the matter?"
"You sleep first, I''ll go to the bathroom." Yao Mu patted his wife gently, covered the quilt for each other and said.
He has two wives. In his early years, he was greedy for young women. As he gets older, he remembers his wife better. Therefore, in the past two years after retirement, he spent most of his time living with his old husband and wife, and the second bedroom slept in another bedroom with his young son.
Yao Mu himself went down to the ground wearing slippers and Nightgown, stood in front of the French window of the bedroom on the second floor, slightly opened the gap of the shutter and looked in the direction of the villa gate.
Yao Mu recognized Yan Xiong standing outside the villa gate at a glance through the two lighted electric courtyard lamp posts at the villa gate.
Of course, he has an impression of Yan Xiong. He is eye-catching and handles affairs neatly. The most important thing is that when Yan Xiong returned to Hong Kong and returned to the police force, he was the first Japanese occupation police to lean towards him.
Later, he sent himself HK $100000 and wanted to ask himself to help him move to a senior sheriff''s position. He just didn''t wait for himself to arrange it. In that year, he retired in a hurry because his right leg was almost amputated.
In fact, Yao Mu always remembers Yan Xiong''s 100000 yuan and what Yan Xiong did for himself. Unfortunately, Liu Fu was not promoted by himself. After he retired, he arranged for a military uniform to change to plain clothes, or an agent to be promoted to a detective. It''s no problem. However, if an detective was promoted to a senior sheriff, Yao mu, who had to pass the pass of inspector general Hua, was always worried that if Liu Fu refused, his face would not look good, so this matter was delayed. However, he was gratified that Yan Xiong never mentioned it when he visited himself every holiday in the past two years. It seemed that this had never happened.
So when I saw Yan Xiong tonight, Yao thought on the Trojan horse that Yan Xiong must have encountered a really difficult thing. It seems that he is also ready to use 100000 yuan in this matter. Otherwise, he wants to open the door of his house late at night. If Yan Xiong didn''t give that 100000 yuan to himself before, would he be a little spy? Dare you ring your doorbell?
However, Yao Mu decided to give Yan Xiong a chance, so he went out of the bedroom, slowly went downstairs, sat on the sofa in the living room in his pajamas, and said in a low voice:
"Ah Fen, open the door."
With Yao Mu''s command, the small room next to the living room immediately thought of the sound of hearing the clothes. However, for dozens of seconds, a woman in her forties, wearing a small, starched, ironed, straight Chinese white cloth jacket and a pair of black cloud gauze trousers, just stood there and gave people a clean feeling, At this time, while walking, he tied his long braid and waist into a bun behind his head and asked:
"Sir, what''s up?"
"The doorbell rings outside, why don''t you open the door?" Yao Mu said kindly to his maid.
The maid looked at the door outside and said to herself and Yao mu, "if you come to quarrel with my master so late, you should let them stand outside and blow the wind."
"People come to the door late at night when they have something urgent. Go and open the door. It''s a big deal. I''ll wait for them to come in and take a breath for you and scare them. Who makes them dare to make ah Fen sleep badly." Yao Mu said to the maid with a smile on his face.
Ah Fen nodded, tied her head meticulously and put on a coat. Then she went out through the front yard of the villa, walked outside the gate, and asked Yan Xiong and song TIANYAO outside the iron gate:
"Who are you looking for in the middle of the night?"
"Sister Fen, it''s me. Yan Xiong of Yau Ma Tei police station will come every new year and festival. You forget me?" Yan Xiong said with a smile to the maid.
The maid glanced at him: "there are so many police in Hong Kong. How can I remember coming here and making my master sleep in the middle of the night? If the master didn''t let me open the door, I''d be ready to let you stand here all the time to blow the wind."
As she spoke, the maid took out the key from inside, unlocked a small door next to the gate, signaled several people to come in, and then she took the lead to go back to the living room.
Seeing this, song TIANYAO was stunned and asked uncertainly:
"Brother Xiong, what''s the identity of this elder sister?"
"This is Muge''s self grooming maid. When Muge first joined the police force at the age of 13, she combed her head and worked as a helper at Muge''s house. Muge''s right leg was sick and painful. Even his wife was not allowed to touch it. If she touched it, she would be scolded. Only sister Fen could serve close. At the beginning, Muge was promoted to chief inspector Hua to hold a meeting for all the police leaders in Hong Kong. When she came out of home, she forgot to take medicine. As a result, she forgot to take medicine Before half of the meeting, sister Fen went in and put the painkillers in front of brother mu. Brother Mu hated others to disturb him. However, in front of sister Fen, she just shook her head and smiled bitterly and took the medicine. After that time, all the police leaders in Hong Kong knew that it was okay to provoke brother mu. If sister Fen was angry, it would be a big bang. "Yan Xiong slowed down and whispered to song TIANYAO: "So wait and go in. Don''t take sister Fen as an ordinary servant in a Shanghai family. This is a real housemaid. Now even if she is rich, it''s hard to invite her again."
As Yan Xiong walked inside, he turned his head and looked at the two double red sticks that he was going to follow in. Although he didn''t speak, song TIANYAO knew what the other party was thinking, so he turned to rotten life Ju and Yu Lan Kun and said, "brother Ju, brother Kun, you are waiting outside."
After all, after receiving song TIANYAO''s benefits before, the two didn''t insist and knew Yao Mu''s identity. People in his own gang are easy to disgust Yao mu, so as soon as song TIANYAO spoke, rotten life Ju said to song TIANYAO, "let''s smoke outside."
"Hard work, you two." song TIANYAO smiled at them and followed Yan Xiong into Yao Mu''s living room.
As soon as he stepped into the living room, song TIANYAO couldn''t help but exclaim. Wealth is indeed not divided into dynasties and regions. There is no TV, computer and Internet. For the poor, it may be boring, but for the rich, there will never be such a feeling.
The antique decoration in the whole hall, all kinds of furniture made of superior wood, rare porcelain, precious carpets on the ground, sandalwood burning in the corner censer, record player, hand-held telephone, radio, mahjong table in the corner of the living room, I''m afraid if the poor come in, they will be smoked by the wealth distributed in the guest room!
At this time, on the leather sofa in the living room, a haggard old man in his pajamas was looking sideways at Yan Xiong and song TIANYAO.
Before Song TIANYAO could react, Yan Xiong next to him had trotted all the way to the sofa and stood at attention: "sir! Police officer spc775 Yan Xiong, report to you!"
Yao Mu smiled and didn''t speak. Sister Fen, who came over with tea, looked at Yan Xiong and said angrily, "Why are you stupid? Yelling here in the middle of the night? Madam and young masters and young ladies don''t need to sleep? It''s really wrong to open the door for you to wake up and come in again."
Yan Xiong immediately looked embarrassed and stared at Yao Mu at a loss.
Yao Mu first hung Yan Xiong on the spot and said to sister Fen, "it''s none of your business here. Go back and have a rest. We''ll talk as quietly as possible."
"Don''t say it''s too late. The doctor says you need to sleep more so that your body can be conditioned faster. Don''t drink the Pu''er tea on the table. Remember to drink the next cup of tea with chrysanthemum, honey and ginseng tablets when you are thirsty." sister Fen puts the tea on the tea table in front of the sofa. She speaks to Yao mu in her mouth, but looks at Yan Xiong next to her. The meaning is very obvious. Say something quickly, Don''t affect her master''s sleep quality.
"I see." Yao Mu only said three words at last. After these three words, sister Fen turned and went back to her small room. She closed the door gently from the inside and made no noise.
And Yan Xiong, from beginning to end, still kept the posture of standing at attention. Yao Mu waved to him: "OK, I have retired, so I don''t have to coax me with this set of actions and words, sit down and drink tea."
"Now you are still the inspector Level Consultant of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Hong Kong Police Force. Even the chief inspector Hua will salute you when he sees you. I will certainly stand at attention and salute the inspector when I see you." Yan Xiong sat on the side of the sofa and said respectfully to Yao mu.
This sentence is not Yan Xiong''s random boasting. Yao Mu retired early due to illness. In order to commend Yao Mu''s achievements and serve as an example to other Chinese police officers, the British promoted him to the inspector level and appointed him as an adviser to the Criminal Investigation Department of the Hong Kong Police Force.
At that time, the inspector of the police force was already equivalent to the middle-level manager of the Hong Kong Police Force. For the British, promoting Yao Mu to the position of inspector was already the biggest reward for the Chinese. Before that, the middle-level managers, including inspectors, were all held by the British.
At this time, although Liu Fu was known as chief inspector Hua and the first among Chinese police officers, his actual title was still the senior Sheriff of the police station. He could only be regarded as the highest post of Junior Police officers of the Hong Kong Police Force. Compared with Yao Mu''s inspector title, there was a trainee inspector in the middle.
"Who is the young man over there?" Yao Mu ignored Yan Xiong''s flattery, looked at Song TIANYAO standing on the side of the sofa and asked.
