Chapter 45 Code Name Bell (6)
"Sister, why aren't you leaving?"
"It's nothing, let's go in!"
Wangyou suppressed her shock. Was the Baoxiniao Tailor Shop afraid that they wouldn't know there was something wrong with their shop?
Why can't we just blend into the crowd? Why do we have to come up with such a distinctive name, as if we're afraid people won't have any doubts?
"Miss, does the young master want clothes made?"
"Hmm!" Wangyou smiled slightly. "Bring out all the best fabrics from your shop. I want to choose them myself!"
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
While the shop assistant was getting the fabric, Wangyou quickly checked the information of the group. After reading it, Wangyou was heartbroken.
The shop owner is an underground worker for the Communist Party, codenamed Abyss. The two employees are newly transferred here, but haven't been here long, so they don't know the owner's exact identity.
However, the people buying clothes in the store were all the same, just ordinary customers, so Wangyou didn't take a closer look.
"Young lady, all the best fabrics in our shop are here!"
"Okay, let's take a look!"
Wangyou pulled Changle to choose fabric for making clothes. At this time, there were quite a few types of fabric, including some rare ones. Although they couldn't compare to the ones she had hoarded in her space, they were still quite good for this era.
Do you accept custom orders?
"OK!"
"Could I please have some paper and a pen?"
"Are you going to draw the clothing design yourself?"
Is there a problem?
"Of course not, please wait a moment!"
The waiter quickly brought paper and pen. After thinking for a while, Wangyou picked up the pen and drew some clothing designs, all of which were quite convenient.
The cheongsam was a distinctive feature of women in this era. While it was beautiful, it was not practical. Although Western-style dresses were also beautiful, they were not as simple as modern ones and had many more decorations.
What Wangyou needs to do is remove these decorations. The clothes that the siblings made are all loose-fitting, so that if anything happens when they go out, they can run around easily.
"You need two sets of each style of clothing in the painting, using the fabric I chose, and in bright colors!"
"Okay, when do you need it?"
"The sooner the better. Can I pay extra for expedited service?"
"I have to ask the manager!" The waiter didn't dare to make the decision himself, so he invited the manager over.
"These clothes are very nice, but you need a lot of them, so it will take at least a month!"
"Okay, I'll pay the deposit first, and then I'll pick out two more outfits that we'll be wearing soon!"
Wangyou nodded, picked out a few more outfits for each of them, and then prepared to leave with Changle.
Just as she was leaving, Wangyou bumped into someone, and when she saw the red characters above the person's head, she couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Her luck was absolutely incredible. Not only did she stumble upon an underground contact point just by going out, but she also met someone who came to exchange information. Most importantly, she felt that there was something extra in her bag.
Without making a sound, Wangyou transferred the items into her spatial storage, then pulled Changle out the door. After looking around, she said, "Changle, there's a wonton stall over there. Shall we go eat some wontons?"
"Okay!" Chang Le happily agreed.
"Boss, two bowls of wontons!"
"Okay, wait a minute!"
While waiting for the wontons, Wangyou quickly read the information of the people around her and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Baoxiniao Tailor Shop. That underground person must have been targeted.
But she's already being watched, so why would she go to the tailor shop? Unless the information is so important that they're willing to sacrifice a contact point.
Kill one person to save a hundred!
But what will happen to her clothes if the Baoxiniao tailor shop is shut down?
However, the woman didn't stay in the tailor shop for long and left quickly, which means that the item was deliberately placed in her bag.
Of course, there is another possibility: that this person has betrayed her and is using her as bait!
Another possibility is that the person was unaware that she had been exposed, and the item was not something she intentionally put into the Forget-Me-Not bag. Although the all-seeing eye can see everything, a person's information is constantly changing, and what you see one second ago may not be the same as what you see the next.
No, we need to speed up the poison-making process. I'll collect all the treasure in the basement when I get back today.
"The wontons are ready, please enjoy!"
Wangyou and Changle each took a spoon and slowly ate their wontons, taking the time to glance at the contents of the intelligence report.
The intelligence is indeed very important; it's a list. It's just that we don't know which faction this list belongs to. Wangyou feels like she's been dragged into this situation.
Although she was willing to serve her country, did it have to be so soon? She had only been in Shanghai for a few days.
Wangyou shook her head, put her mind at ease, and focused on eating wontons. After finishing the wontons, she took Changle to buy a lot of daily necessities and also went to the pharmacy to buy a set of silver needles, because sometimes pricking people can yield unexpected results.
Having bought everything, Wangyou looked around and then spotted a rickshaw in front of the movie theater not far away. "Let's go, let's call a rickshaw home!"
When Chang Le heard his sister say they were going home, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His sister was so good at shopping that his little legs started to tremble.
Wangyou pulled Changle into a rickshaw. "Driver, number 28 Mingchun Lane!"
"okay!"
Looking at the rickshaw driver's attire, Wangyou couldn't help but think that this man must have taken her words to heart. His disguise was perfect this time. If it weren't for the bright red words on his head, she might not have been able to recognize him!
Upon arriving at the destination, Wangyou handed him the list all at once while paying him, saying, "Your people have been lost. I guess your liaison point for the Baoxiniao Tailor Shop has been exposed!"
"Thank you, miss!" The driver quickly pulled the rickshaw away.
"Sister, do you know that uncle?"
"I don't know you. Come on, let's go back and you'll get a medicinal bath!"
Upon hearing that she was going to take a medicinal bath, Chang Le stopped thinking about it and happily trudged home with Wang You on her short legs.
After boiling the bathwater, Wangyou put the medicinal bath packet into the tub, and then put Changle in as well. Wangyou then used silver needles to prick Changle into a hedgehog-like shape. The rest of the time, she either added water or read a book.
Two hours later, Wangyou dragged Changle out and said, "Alright, wash yourself clean and go to sleep!"
Wangyou returned to her room, filled the bathtub with water, added three medicinal bath packets, and then put herself in. A tingling sensation spread across her skin. Without wasting the medicinal power, Wangyou closed her eyes and thoroughly absorbed it.
Ancient martial arts may be considered the pinnacle in the ordinary world, but it would be even better if one could go to the world of cultivation in the future.
After absorbing and refining the medicinal power, Wangyou washed her body again. She checked the time and saw that it was already ten o'clock. Changle was already fast asleep.
Wangyou took the jade pendants belonging to the siblings and silently dug up the ground of her house with a hoe.
After digging about two meters deep, they finally saw an iron gate. Wangyou put two wooden plaques inside, and the gate opened with a click. Wangyou waited for a while before slowly walking down the steps.
