Yuzao reads newspapers and understands current affairs every day. This is a habit she formed with her parents since childhood.

She got up a little late today and took the newspaper to school.

When she saw the obituary notice and the photo, she was in the recess of the second class. In the next third class, she was in a daze and was called by the teacher once.

After class, Xu Jingran and Ma Xuan, sitting behind her, poked her: "Why are you distracted? Can't you understand?"

"No, I can understand." Yuzao smiled, "it's a small thing."

She really had no one to say, so she spread out the newspaper to Xu Jingran and Ma Xuan.

"This woman is the wife of the obituary man, isn't she?" She asked.

Two female students came together and read the obituary. They thought there was nothing unusual.

It is very common for many outsiders in Shanghai to be buried in their hometown with coffins after their families die. When you leave, tell your relatives and friends about it, and let them not go to his house to comfort. By the way, your house has returned.

"What's the matter? Do you know her?" Ma Xuan asked, "I don't see what's wrong with this?"

Several male classmates also came together.

Everyone talked about the obituary. Some people raised questions, but the speculation was very unreliable.

In the fourth class, when the teacher came in, they were still together, so the teacher confiscated the newspaper.

The teacher also saw the obituary in the newspaper and suddenly paused.

He quickly confiscated the newspaper and began class.

When the class was about to end, the teacher shouted to Si yuzao, "classmate Si, wait a minute."

After the students left, the 50 year old professor returned the newspaper to Si yuzao and said, "why talk about this?"

Si yuzao was embarrassed and smiled: "it's a small matter. My friend said he knew this woman..."

The old professor looked at her face carefully, as if to confirm the truth of her words.

For a long time, the old professor said quickly, "there is no problem with people and obituaries, but there is a code word. This is the exchange of information between the underground revolutionary party."

Si yuzao was frozen.

The old professor said, "classmate Si, I heard that you are from Nanyang and your family is very rich. In that case, go to school well and don't get involved too deeply. You children can't understand the treacherous situation in greater Shanghai."

Si yuzao didn't move for a long time. She was stuck there and couldn't find the north.

She didn't go to class in the afternoon. She went directly to the traffic branch to find the drunken young master Zhang.

Young master Zhang is not here. He has a meal at noon.

Si yuzao took his adjutant song you to Zhang Xinmei's house. As a result, I suddenly noticed that the brand of Zhang Xinmei's apartment building was exactly the opposite number of the brand on the address mentioned in the newspaper.

The brand is the opposite, the address is irrelevant, but Si yuzao's suspicious back is cold.

She and song swam across the street and carefully observed Zhang Xinmei's building.

Young master Zhang is used to extravagance. He bought an apartment building and lived in only one room. Others think it incredible, but it is not rare for young master Zhang who is used to extravagance.

If he is simple and economical, he will be suspicious.

Yuzao looked and suddenly found a corner behind the curtain on the second floor.

When I showed her carefully, it was silent again.

She had a bad feeling in her heart.

At more than two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xinmei came back. He went back to the branch after lunch. The Secretary said Miss Si came and left a message to wait for her at his house.

Today is a working day. Yuzao also needs classes. Zhang Xinmei is puzzled by her sudden appearance.

When I got home, I saw Si yuzao.

She is observing his building carefully.

Zhang Xinmei frowned slightly and said, "what's the matter? What's the matter with you?"

Yuzao swallowed a lot of confrontations.

She said with a smile: "I was scolded by the teacher in class last time. I was so angry. I was so beautiful that he scolded me. I didn't want to go and skipped class all day."

Although Zhang Xinmei tried hard to keep calm, he was in a bad mood.

He said: "yuzao, don't always be so mischievous. Adults have to work to make money. Not everyone's life is as easy as you."

"Others don't care, but you and I are the same kind of people. Your father left you so much money and contacts. You call the wind and rain in Shanghai. Why aren't you relaxed?" Asked Si yuzao.

Zhang Xinmei was speechless at once.

Si yuzao said, "or do you secretly do something to betray the government?"

Zhang Xinmei immediately grabbed her arm.

He said, "you come in!"

He took yuzao back to his apartment and left the adjutant downstairs.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked her, "what are you talking about? Did you see the newspaper?"

"Your fiancee's obituary?" Yuzao raised her eyebrows. "Yes, I see..."

Zhang Xinmei let her go.

He sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette. He seemed a little dejected: "yuzao, I want to make it clear to you that I did something disgraceful..."

Yuzao held her breath.

Then she heard Zhang Xinmei say, "I'm in love with a married woman."

Yuzao's breath stuck in her throat.

She thought, does Zhang Xinmei really think she is a straw bag? Do you think how ignorant she is to tell such a clumsy lie?

She didn't answer and looked at her quietly.

"... she was murdered." Zhang Xinmei said, "her husband will retaliate against me. Don't tell anyone about it."

Yuzao didn't speak.

Zhang Xinmei said, "I know you despise me, but adults are so dirty sometimes..."

Yuzao sneered.

"Uncle Zhang, is it harder to be an underground party than a adulterer?" Asked yuzao.

Zhang Xinmei's eyes were sharp: "what did you say?"

"I said, your fiancee is the revolutionary party, and your building is the stronghold of the underground party. There are people on the second floor!" Si yuzao said.

Zhang Xinmei suddenly stood up.

He grabbed yuzao's throat, put her against the wall and asked word by word, "what did you say? Who told you and how did you know?"

"I lied to you." Yuzao breathed hard, "Uncle Zhang, you'll reveal the stuffing when you cheat..."

Zhang Xinmei looked into her eyes and was stunned for a long time.

He slowly released his hand.

Yuzao breathed slowly. Her throat was a little sore. She coughed hard.

Zhang Xinmei turned her back.

He kept silent and seemed to be thinking about something.

Yuzao said, "it's my teacher. He said that those underground parties are exchanging information. He probably knows a lot, not underground parties, otherwise he wouldn't tell me. Uncle Zhang, don't be nervous. I don't know anything. I was really just shaking my wits."

Zhang Xinmei still turned her back.

Si yuzao continued: "I won't tell anyone. Now the government is grasping the underground party. You are a senior government official or Zhang Jiuye. If you say it, you will die. I know."

Zhang Xinmei took a deep breath and turned her head.

He approached Si yuzao and held her cheek in his hands.

He lowered his head slightly and looked into her eyes.

"Yuzao, remember my words. There is no underground party, and you don't know that I told you about my fiancee. As for your professor, you should protect him. You can't talk to anyone about his words." Zhang Xinmei said.

"Are you?" Asked Si yuzao.

Zhang Xinmei shook her head: "I'm not. I'm Zhang Jiuye from greater Shanghai. Just remember this. No matter who asks you, no matter what happens in the future, you should remember."

Yuzao frowned slightly. She's a little confused.
