When Shen Hao went out in the morning, he found a note on the seat of his carriage.
The note was about a finger long, and was on ordinary letter paper, with scrawled writing on it: "At the beginning of the afternoon, the oil tea stall at the entrance of Dongshi Market." The signature was the emblem of a moon.
Shen Hao had seen this emblem before, and the pamphlets produced by Yueying Studio had exactly the same emblem.
Is this the message Yueying Tower sent him?
"Li Tie, when was the carriage washed?"
"Sir, I washed it at noon yesterday. Do you have any instructions?"
"Well, it's okay."
It was washed at noon yesterday, and the note had nothing to do with the car wash. Was it a note someone placed while parking? It was impossible. As far as Shen Hao knew, Li Tie and Zhang Cang would check the inside and outside of the carriage every day before driving to make sure nothing was missing before driving to pick him up. They shouldn't have missed this note.
The only possibility is that Zhang Cang and Li Tie put the note in after they checked the carriage in the morning.
But how is this done?
As for his bodyguards, Shen Hao had no doubts. His bodyguards have all been carefully screened by Wang Jian over and over again, and there will definitely be no problems.
Shen Hao frowned and put the note away. If he guessed correctly, this should be the reply to what he had talked about with Reixiang before. Judging from this method, it is indeed not simple. At least Shen Hao can't figure out how the other party did it for the time being. Maybe this is the legendary Yueying Tower's ability?
But the note made Shen Hao see something else.
The appointment time was noon, which was almost the time when Xuan Qingwei was resting. The place of appointment is very interesting.
Camellia oleifera...it's unlikely to be a coincidence. Because Shen Hao happens to like eating Camellia oleifera very much.
Is this a hint: We have been following you for a long time?
Is this considered a "disgrace"?
There is one more thing. That is, the other party chooses to pass the note instead of direct face-to-face contact, which is to guard against him. At the same time, he was testing him.
If ordinary people saw such a note, they would definitely mutter "crazy" and ignore it. And when a person of Shen Hao's status encounters something like this, he will definitely trace the source of the note. At least it means there is a loophole in the security of the carriage, right?
There is only one possibility for Shen Hao to go to the appointment, that is, Shen Hao understands the message on the note and recognizes the emblem. At the same time, Shen Hao also needs to have a spontaneous interest in the Yueying Tower represented by this emblem, and be willing to take the risk of contact.
When the carriage arrived at the gate of Black Flag Camp, Shen Hao walked in as usual, and Li Tie, Zhang Cang and the remaining guards who had escorted him all the way completed their errands. Each returned to Xiaoqi Camp to resume his duties.
"Brother Zhang, why don't we go wash this car when we have nothing to do now? Wash the seat cushion covers and everything inside?"
"what?"
"When we got in the car just now, weren't you asking if the car was washed? Did you think the car was a little dirty?"
Hearing this, Zhang Cang opened the car curtain and looked inside. He shook his head and said, "No need, right? Didn't I just wash it at noon yesterday? The seat cushion covers are all clean. I think it was too damp during this period, and there was a vaginal discharge in the car. Smells trendy?"
"That's right. Open the curtain to ventilate it. I'll find some fragrant leaves and put it inside to remove the smell. Don't tell me, it really smells damp inside."
The two of them are Shen Hao's personal bodyguards and are also responsible for Shen Hao's bicycle frame. Shen Hao just asked about "car wash" and quickly checked the problem on his own.
Now in July, the power of summer continues to rise, and the heat here in Fengri City is also accompanied by humidity, which is classified as "sultry". There will indeed be a damp smell in the carriage car after it has been sealed for a long time, so you have to open the curtain to sit in the sun. Exposed to the sun for a period of time. If you add bay leaves, it should be able to completely remove the smell.
Li Tie went to find Xiangye, and Zhang Cang drove to the small school ground where he was stationed. He untied the horse and left the frame of the carriage exposed to the sun. Then he turned around to find a shady place to rest.
When Zhang Cang left, there was something strange in the frame of the car that had been exposed to the sun. A four-inch-long little mouse as black as ink slipped out from under the car seat, then quickly got out of the carriage and ran along the wall without a trace.
...
At the beginning of the afternoon, the East Market is bustling with people and there is an endless stream of people coming and going. You can see them all here, whether they are traders or lackeys, all dressed in luxurious clothes. They all have their own ways, but they all do the same thing: to support their families.
The East Market is a place for business. There are many traders, and some people specialize in the business of these traders.
As soon as you enter the Dongshi Square Gate, you will see a small shop on the street. There is a pergola hanging outside the shop, occupying a small area of the street with three small tables. There is also a sign at the door: Dongshi Camellia.
Shen Hao likes to eat Camellia oleifera and knows this Camellia oleifera shop. I ate here last time when I went shopping with Hongsi and Jinxiu. The taste was very authentic.
It was noon, and there were already quite a few people sitting at the three small tables outside the oil tea shop. Some of them were standing or squatting beside them, holding bowls and eating. The fragrant aroma of oil tea lingered around the shop, and people passed by. Everyone swallowed their saliva subconsciously.
Is there anyone in the world who doesn’t like Camellia oleifera?
If I had to point out the shortcomings of the Camellia oleifera, it would be that it doesn’t make you hungry. I feel full when I eat a big bowl of it, but I feel hungry very quickly after just two cups of it. It’s a bit like porridge.
Therefore, the oil tea alone cannot be eaten as a meal. It must be paired with something that can fill the stomach. Dry biscuits are best.
Shen Hao had changed into regular clothes before he came out. No one noticed him now. He walked to the stall and said, "A bowl of oil tea and two meat cakes."
"Okay! Wait a moment!"
Soon, Shen Hao was squatting on the street eating and drinking with a big bowl and two meatloaf in each hand. No one would recognize Shen Hao at this time, because who would have thought that the dignified evil star of Fengri City would be squatting on the street eating?
After drinking half a bowl of oil tea and eating a piece of meat pie, Shen Hao was not in a hurry. He didn't believe that the other party would break the appointment. He was probably watching him somewhere now.
When Shen Hao had half a piece of cake left, a middle-aged man dressed as a salesman came over. He was holding a bowl of oil tea and meat cakes like Shen Hao. He squatted on the side and turned to look at Shen Hao.
"Master Shen, it seems that the oil tea is not enough. How about I treat you to another bowl?"
The sound was not loud, just enough for Shen Hao next to him to hear.
"Okay, let's have another bowl." Shen Hao glanced at the person next to him and did not refuse the other party's treat.
The man's face was ordinary, with heavy weather marks. At first glance, he looked like a traveler. Especially those eyes, showing shrewdness.
Soon, the owner of the oil tea stall brought another bowl to Shen Hao, which was quite hot.
"Hoo!" After blowing twice, Shen Hao swallowed the last bite of the meat pie, took out the note from his arms and handed it over, saying at the same time: "Is it yours?"
The man took the note, then rubbed it with his hands, and the note turned into pieces. He smiled and said, "The sloppy handwriting makes Master Shen laugh."
"Tell me how you managed to get the note into the carriage without being discovered?"
