Chapter 17 Yao Mu

Yao Mu is 56 years old this year. Although he is not dizzy or deaf, his body has passed the age of singing every night. In addition, he has suffered a lot of illnesses in the years as a policeman, so he went to bed on time at only nine o'clock. The latest and fastest updates are provided, free reading

Although there were no explicit regulations before the fall of Hong Kong, only British people were qualified to live. After Hong Kong Chongguang, Yao Mu made great contributions to the Hong Kong police force. After retirement, he was arranged by the police chief to buy the villa of Xiu Fudun, the former director of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Hong Kong Police Force and head of the Political Department.

He is the first Chinese police officer in the entire Hong Kong police force to live in the Taipingshan villa area.

"Dingdong~Dingdong~" The doorbell installed at the villa gate rang. Yao Mu is old and has a light sleep. In addition, he is a policeman for many years and is alert, so even if he is separated by a yard, he vaguely hears the doorbell and sits up from the bed.

The old wife next to her barely opened her eyes and looked at Yao Mu who was sitting up: "What's wrong?"

"You go to the bathroom first." Yao Mu patted his wife gently and covered the quilt for the other party.

He had two wives in his house. In his early years, he was still greedy for young women. As he got older, he remembered his wife better. Therefore, in the past two years after retirement, the old couple lived together most of the time, and the second wife took her young son to sleep in another bedroom.

Yao Mu went downstairs and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the second-floor bedroom in his slippers and nightgown, slightly opened the gap between the blinds and looked towards the direction of the villa door.

Through the two lit electrical courtyard lamp posts at the villa gate, Yao Mu recognized Yan Xiong standing outside the gate at a glance.

Of course, he has an impression of Yan Xiong, who is eye-catching and neat. The most important thing is that when Yan Xiong returned to Hong Kong and returned to the police force, he was the first Japanese-occupied policeman to lean on him.

Later, he even sent him 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, hoping to ask him to help him move into a senior sheriff's position. But before he could arrange this, he retired in a hurry because of his right leg amputation.

In fact, Yao Mu always remembers Yan Xiong's 100,000 yuan, and always remembers what Yan Xiong did for him. Unfortunately, Liu Fu was not promoted by himself. After he retired, he arranged for a military uniform to be used as a plainclothes or an agent to be promoted to a visitor. However, if he promoted to a senior police officer, it must be that Yao Mu, who had to pass the level of Inspector General Hua, was always worried that if Liu Fu refused, his face would not look good, so this matter was delayed. However, what made him relieved was that Yan Xiong had never mentioned this matter every year during the past two years, and it seemed that this matter had never happened.

So when I saw Yan Xiong tonight, Yao Mu immediately thought that Yan Xiong must have encountered something really difficult. It seems that he is also preparing to use 100,000 yuan of favors on this matter. Otherwise, he would want to open his own door late at night. If Yan Xiong hadn't given the 100,000 yuan to him before, a small sighting? How dare he ring the doorbell of his own house?

However, for the sake of the other party's sensibility over the past two years, Yao Mu decided to give Yan Xiong a chance, so he walked out of the bedroom, slowly walked downstairs, sat on the sofa in his pajamas, and spoke in a loud voice:

"Afen, go and open the door."

With Yao Mu's instructions, the sound of dressing in the small room next to the living room immediately reminded me of the sound of dressing. In just a few dozen seconds, a woman in her forties was wearing a straight Chinese white cloth jacket with a pair of black fragrant cloud trousers underneath. She just stood there and gave a clean and neat feeling. At this time, she tied a long braid from her waist into a bun and tied it behind her head while walking:

"Master, what's the matter?"

"The doorbell rings outside, why don't you open the door?" Yao Mu said kindly to the maid in his family.

The maid looked at the door outside, as if she was talking to herself, and as if she was saying to Yao Mu: "I'm here to disturb my master so late, so I should let them stand outside and have a breath of wind."

"If someone has urgent matters, they will come to the door late at night and go open the door. At worst, I can wait for them to come in and vent their anger for you and scare them. Who told them to boldly make Afen unable to sleep well?" Yao Mu said to the maid with a smile on his face.

Afen nodded, tied his head meticulously, put on another coat, then 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 should I look for in the middle of the night?"

"Sister Fen, it's me, Yan Xiong from Yau Ma Tei Police Station. They come every holiday. Have you forgotten me?" Yan Xiong said with a smile at the maid.

The maid glanced at him: "There are so many police officers in Hong Kong, how can I remember coming here? I came to quarrel with my master to sleep in the middle of the night. If the master hadn't asked me to open the door, I would have prepared you to stand here and have a breath of wind."

As he spoke, the maid took out the key from the inside and opened a small door lock next to the door, signaled several people to come in, and then walked back to the living room first.

Song Tianyao was stunned for a moment and asked uncertainly:

"Brother Xiong, who is this sister?"

"This is the self-combed maid from Brother Mu's family. At the age of thirteen, when Mu Ge first joined the police force, he combed his hair and worked as a servant at Brother Mu's house. Brother Mu's right leg was sick and painful, and even his wife was not allowed to touch him. He would be scolded when he touched him. Only this sister Fen can serve him in close proximity. When Brother Mu was promoted to Inspector General Hua, he held a meeting with all the police leaders in Hong Kong. When he came out of his house, he forgot to take medicine. As a result, before the prescription was halfway, Sister Fen walked in and put the painkiller in front of Brother Mu.

My brother hates others to bother him the most, but in front of Sister Fen, he just shook his head and smiled bitterly, and took the medicine obediently. After that time, all the police leaders in Hong Kong knew that it would be okay to provoke Brother Mu. If Sister Fen gets angry, that would be a big deal." Yan Xiong slowed down and whispered to Song Tianyao: "So wait until you go in, don't treat Sister Fen as an ordinary servant in Shanghai. This is a real maid at home. Even if you have money, it is difficult to get it again."

While walking inside, Yan Xiong turned his head and looked at the two double flower red sticks who were about to follow in. Although he didn't speak, Song Tianyao knew what the other party was thinking, so he turned around and said to Lanming Ju and Yu Lankun: "Brother Ju, Brother Kun, thank you for your hard work, you two are waiting outside."

After all, I took the benefits of Song Tianyao before, and the two of them did not insist. They also knew Yao Mu's identity. People in the gang like him were likely to make Yao Mu disgusted, so as soon as Song Tianyao spoke, the wild life-threatening horse said to Song Tianyao: "We are smoking a cigarette outside."

"Thank you two." Song Tianyao smiled at the two and followed Yan Xiong into the living room of Yao Mu's house.

As soon as he stepped into the living room, Song Tianyao couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, wealth and honor were indeed not divided into dynasties and regions. Without TV, computers, and Internet, it may be boring for the poor, but for rich people, they will never feel this way.

The entire hall is decorated with antique colors, various furniture made of high-quality wood, precious porcelain, precious carpets on the ground, sandalwood burned in the incense burner in the corner, record machines, hand-cranked phones, radios, and mahjong tables in a corner of the living room. I am afraid that if the poor come in, they will be frightened by the wealth emitted from the living room!

At this time, on the leather sofa in the living room, an old man wearing pajamas and a somewhat haggard look turned his face and looked at Yan Xiong and Song Tianyao who were entering the door.

Before Song Tianyao could react, Yan Xiong beside him had already jogged to the sofa and stood attentively: "Sir! Police officer spc775 Yan Xiong, report to you!"

Yao Mu smiled and hadn't spoken yet. Sister Fen, who was walking over with tea next to him, looked at Yan Xiong and said unhappily: "Why are you stupid? You shouted here in the middle of the night? Don't you have to sleep with your ladies and young ladies? You really shouldn't open the door for you to wake up and then come in."

Yan Xiong immediately stood there with an awkward expression on his face, looking at Yao Mu at a loss.

Yao Mu first left Yan Xiong on the spot and said to Sister Fen: "There is nothing to do here. Go back and rest. We will try to keep our voices as low as possible."

"Don't say it's too late. The doctor said that you need to sleep more so that your body will be more conditioned. Don't drink Pu'er tea on the table. The cup of tea with chrysanthemums, honey and ginseng slices beside you. Remember to drink it when you are thirsty." Sister Fen put the tea on the tea table in front of the sofa, spoke to Yao Mu, but her eyes looked at Yan Xiong beside her. The meaning was very obvious. If you have anything, please say it quickly and don't affect her master's sleep quality.

"I understand." Yao Mu only said three words in the end. After saying these three words, Sister Fen turned around and went back to her small room, gently closed the door from inside, and stopped making any more noise.

Yan Xiong, who was still standing attentive from beginning to end, waved his hand at him: "Okay, I'm retired, so I don't have to use this set of actions and words to make me happy, sit down and have tea."

"Now you are still an inspector-level consultant of the Criminal Investigation Office of the Hong Kong Police Force. Even Inspector General Hua will salute you when he sees you. If I look into it, of course I have to stand attentively to the inspector." Yan Xiong sat on the side of the sofa and said respectfully to Yao Mu.

This sentence is not something Yan Xiong praised randomly. Yao Mu retired early due to illness. In order to commend Yao Mu's achievements and serve as an example for other Chinese police officers, the British promoted his position to the inspector level and appointed him as an advisor to the Criminal Investigation Office of the Hong Kong Police Force.

At that time, the police inspector was equivalent to the middle-level manager of the Hong Kong police force. For the British, promoting Yao Mu to the position of inspector was the biggest reward for Chinese. Before that, all the middle-level managers, including the inspector, were held by the British.

At this time, although Liu Fu was called the Chief Inspector of the General Administration and the first among Chinese police officers, he was still the senior police chief of the Police Department. He could only be regarded as the highest position of junior police officers in the Hong Kong Police Force. Compared with Yao Mu's supervisor, there was an intern inspector in the middle.
