"Good afternoon, miss. Could I sit next to you? If so, I'd like to buy you a cup of coffee, please?"
Jiang Cha, who was sitting in a coffee shop in a daze, heard someone talking in his ear. He looked up and saw that it was a man he didn't recognize. He looked ordinary and there was nothing memorable about him.
I didn't expect someone to chat with her. This person is quite interesting.
She pretended not to understand what he was saying, since it was common knowledge that she was a low lifer.
Every day when she went to the restaurant to eat, she would meet many people who avoided her eye contact.
I was afraid that any misfortune would upset her and cause unnecessary trouble.
Everyone's first reaction was to stay away from her, except for that shameless brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and this man.
I don't know what his purpose is, is it to curry favor with the powerful?
Seeing that Jiang Cha didn't understand, the man asked her again in English.
"Could you please sit here, beautiful lady?"
"Could you please move to another seat, sir?"
She looked up at the man, waiting for him to leave.
Instead of sleeping in the room, she spent time in the cafe simply to keep an eye on the two men.
There was no place near their room where she could eavesdrop, so she had no choice but to wait for them like a hunter waiting for a rabbit.
She doesn't have time to engage in nonsense conversation with men, as it will affect her performance.
"My dear old friend, have you forgotten me? We are destined to meet again after so long apart!"
The man sat down next to her without a care in the world, and then spoke to her in a low voice, looking like a slick lecher.
Just as Jiang Cha picked up the coffee and was about to throw it at him, the man whispered something again, thus avoiding the still steaming coffee.
"You forgot, when Mingzhu was on the ship to Shanghai, Er Gouzi was arresting people, and you saved me!"
After the man finished speaking, he made a gesture of reaching into his pocket to remind her of the situation.
Jiang Cha immediately remembered the first time she went to Xiaozizi to make trouble and then helped a man escape from Ergouzi's pursuit on the boat from Mingzhu back to Shanghai.
The man put something in her pocket and didn't return it until she got off the boat.
I remember that when we arrived at the Shanghai dock, there were Japanese soldiers searching the passengers getting off the ship one by one. Fortunately, I met her and my man was not caught.
I took a closer look at the man in front of me. He looked a little different from his previous image.
"I'm sorry, did you get the wrong person? I've never seen you before. Also, please speak English or Japanese to me. I don't understand what you are saying!"
Even if she had helped him at the beginning, she would not have admitted it rashly.
It's always better to be cautious when you go out. These are what the bosses often remind her.
Everyone knew that she was running around everywhere and often helped her comrades in the Hong Party.
The bosses have taught her many times that although their intentions are good, one must be discerning.
When you are uncertain, don't trust anyone easily, even if he is a compatriot.
But who can guarantee that he has not betrayed?
The man repeated it in English, looking at her eagerly as if waiting for her to nod in agreement so that he could kneel down and thank her.
Jiang Cha pretended to be thoughtful, constantly observing the man's movements and micro-expressions.
Give him the illusion that he is trying hard to remember, and then speak in an affirmative tone when he is about to lose his patience.
"I'm sorry you got the wrong person. I've never seen you before. Although I occasionally help others, I will never go against His Majesty Tian Huang's decision.
As long as our army arrests people, you must be a bad guy!"
After saying that, he suddenly grabbed the man's arm and shouted loudly in Japanese.
"Is the lady here? I caught a fugitive. I heard he escaped from Shanghai. There were people trying to catch him!"
The man's arm swung back and forth in her hand a few times and then broke free from her control. She was a weak girl and of course could not be compared with a big man.
Soon, before the man could leave the cafe, several Japanese soldiers in various casual clothes ran over.
He walked in with a ferocious look on his face. Jiang Cha quickly pointed at the man and shouted, "Catch him! He's a bad guy!"
The Japanese soldiers who entered the room paused noticeably, then took the person away in a pretentious manner.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to thank her!
"Thank you for your help, young lady. We were able to capture a fugitive. I will report this to my superiors based on your family's commendation."
Jiang Cha stood up and pretended to be surprised. He quickly bowed and said a lot of words of gratitude.
He stood up straight and looked at them intently, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, muttering to himself.
Anyone who sees this will say that this woman is so happy. Hasn't she ever stopped talking?
The Japanese soldiers took the man away unnaturally, and after they left, the originally quiet coffee shop was filled with buzzing noise.
Everyone was so excited that the voices they were talking about were so loud that when there were more people, it became a buzz.
It was as noisy as a vegetable market, and of course the number of people looking at her, both openly and covertly, had obviously increased.
Jiang Cha calmly finished his coffee, put the tip under the cup, and slowly left, not taking the stares seriously at all.
There were whispers all the way, as if everyone suddenly knew that she was a cold-blooded and ruthless Japanese devil.
The vast majority of people on the ship were Chinese. Some of them were students who had returned from studying abroad, some were young ladies and gentlemen who were on vacation and going home, and some were businessmen who were out on business.
