You were allowed to marry into No. 76 family, and you were promoted to director?

Chapter 306 Trouble
At this moment, the woman in the cheongsam, who had already gotten off the tram, had a mocking smile on her lips. As she walked, she took out two wallets from her handbag, took all the Japanese yen inside, and then casually threw the wallets into a flower bed as she passed by.

A short while later, the woman in the cheongsam got into a rickshaw and drove off in another direction.

On the rickshaw, the woman in the cheongsam raised her eyebrows slightly, looking curiously at the two blue glass tubes.

She had taken these two items from those two Japanese men, but she couldn't tell what they were at all.
However, the woman in the cheongsam was certain that these two items were extremely important; otherwise, the two Japanese men would not have hidden them specifically in the inner breast pocket.

"Never mind, I'll go back and ask my sister."

In Shanghai, on Seymour Road, lies a high-end apartment complex.

The girl in the cheongsam got off the rickshaw early and walked back to 112 Seymour Road apartment complex.

"Xiaolan, I'm back."

The girl in the cheongsam, who had just bought groceries on her way back, habitually called out. A woman with braided hair, glasses, and simple clothes, who looked to be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old and bore a six or seven-tenths resemblance to the girl in the cheongsam, stood up from the sofa.

"Sister, why did it take you so long to buy groceries?"

"The vegetables here aren't fresh anymore, so I went to a market further away."

These two sisters have relied on each other for many years. The older sister is named Jiang Xiaoyue. She uses the identity of Jinxian when she travels the world, but she is not a member of Jinxian.

Jinxian, on the other hand, is a pickpocket gang that is predominantly female.

To be honest, Jiang Xiaoyue didn't join Jinxian because she looked down on it, and she called herself a member of Jinxian just to avoid trouble outside.

My younger sister's name is Jiang Xiaolan. She is a teaching assistant at Shenjiang University and an ordinary citizen of Shanghai.

Seeing her sister take off her wig after returning home, Jiang Xiaolan never understood why her sister disguised herself when going out, but her sister always said it was for safety, so Jiang Xiaolan never asked any further questions.

"Xiaolan, hurry up, I bought sea bass today, it's your favorite. Let's cook, I'm starving."

As the two sisters began their cozy life together, at the military police hospital, Zhao Xuan was almost dumbfounded by what he saw through the vision of the nanobugs.

"That speed! Wait, Jiang Xiaoyue snatched it!"

Zhao Xuan felt a chill run down his spine and almost jumped off the hospital bed.

It's not surprising that Zhao Xuan knew Jiang Xiaoyue's name through the scanning mode.

What Zhao Xuan fears most now is that Jiang Xiaoyue, that female thief, might accidentally destroy those two glass tubes.

At dinner time, only Dao Ya came to the military police hospital, which was something Dao Ya had promised Dao Yan yesterday.

When Dao Ya got home, she saw the lunchbox that Dao Yan had prepared in advance, and she took it to the Military Police Hospital.

As soon as Dao Ya arrived in the intensive care unit, Zhao Xuan gave her a look that indicated something important was going on.

Dao Ya immediately turned around, looked left and right at the doorway, entered the room, closed the door, and quickly walked to the bedside.

"Brother-in-law, this is lunch my sister prepared. Should I feed you or will you eat it yourself?"

Zhao Xuan took the lunchbox, casually placed it behind the bedside table, and said:
"We're in big trouble."

Dao Ya frowned slightly:
"big trouble?"

Zhao Xuan told Dao Ya about how the two Japanese experts had their dangerous items stolen by pickpockets.

Upon hearing this, Dao Ya swallowed hard.

Her grand plan to make money wasn't even finished yet, and Dao Ya didn't want to be killed by a petty thief.

"Brother-in-law, what should I do?"

Zhao Xuan took a deep breath:
"The Japanese will definitely investigate, but that female thief used many deceptive methods along the way, so finding her won't be easy. Right now, the most important thing is time. We need to find her as soon as possible and get those two items back."

Daoya closed her eyes and mentally rehearsed the entire process.

"It's not difficult to investigate. Although the female thief left behind many methods that could affect the investigation, they can still be ruled out."

"At least, the light blue cheongsam she was wearing was the most obvious feature."

“She can disguise herself in many ways, but she can’t change her cheongsam on the street. If I were the Japanese person in charge of the investigation, I would definitely seize this key clue.”

"In this way, it is easy to think of rickshaws. Then, starting with rickshaws, the Japanese can find out where the female thief got off the rickshaw in about four or five hours."

“Once we pinpoint this location, we can narrow down the search area by using the drop-off point as the center. So we need to retrieve the items within seven hours.”

Zhao Xuan nodded.

Dao Ya's analysis is correct. Although Jiang Xiaoyue is clever and has used some tricks, she is not a former special agent, and her tricks can be easily investigated.

Jiang Xiaoyue made many mistakes along the way. The first one was the wallet she took from those two Japanese men, which she shouldn't have thrown into the flower bed by the roadside.

Secondly, once the Japanese found the wallet in the flower bed, they determined where she had sold the stolen goods. Then, starting from where she sold the stolen goods, it was easy to find the rickshaw driver.

Once this key figure is found, it will only be a matter of time before the Japanese confirm that Jiang Xiaoyue lives on Seymour Road.

Finally, Jiang Xiaoyue is too beautiful, and the cheongsam she is wearing is too eye-catching.

Once the Japanese determine the last place Jiang Xiaoyue got off the train, they will definitely be able to find out some of Jiang Xiaoyue's whereabouts along the way and eventually determine her address on Seymour Road.

Moreover, and most fatally, Jiang Xiaoyue was operating under the guise of Jin Xian in Shanghai's underworld.

The Japanese could easily determine, with just a little inquiry, that it was Jiang Xiaoyue who was impersonating Jin Xian.

"Brother-in-law, what do you want me to do?"

Zhao Xuan stared at Dao Ya, pondered for a moment, and then gave her two choices.

"If you want to save that female thief, you have to clean up her mess first."

"If you just want to get your things back, the risks will be much greater, but you can get help from the Japanese and don't need to do it yourself."

Dao Ya's lips twitched slightly. "Don't joke around, you're using the Japanese's help."

Once that female thief's life is threatened, who knows what she might do?
Dao Ya has no habit of entrusting her life to others.

Moreover, after hearing her brother-in-law's account of the female thief, Dao Ya felt that the female thief was highly skilled and, of course, a pickpocket.

With proper training, he could definitely become an ace.

Therefore, having the Japanese take action involves too many uncontrollable factors. Taking matters into one's own hands would likely allow for a safe return of the items, and might even be a chance to bring Jiang Xiaoyue under one's wing.

The underground factory is now developing rapidly, and Daoya definitely needs manpower.

If it weren't for the fact that the Ghost Team was Zhao Xuan's direct subordinates, Dao Ya would have wanted to bring a few of her mentors into her business empire.

However, Dao Ya is now also having a headache, because Zhao Xuan mentioned Jin Xian during his narration.

Those in Jinxian know more or less about Jiang Xiaoyue's situation, and if they want to perfectly help Jiang Xiaoyue avoid danger, Jinxian is an unavoidable landmine.

Moreover, the Japanese will absolutely not give up until they find their lost items.

Seeing Dao Ya's delicate eyebrows furrowed, Zhao Xuan smiled and said:
"It seems you've chosen the second option."

"You want to save that female thief, but you're worried that Jin Xian's identity will be exposed?"

Dao Ya had nothing to hide from Zhao Xuan and nodded directly:

“Brother-in-law, I need manpower right now. I think that female thief is quite good. However, if we don’t solve the problem with the brocade thread, the Japanese will find out her identity sooner or later.”

"And then there are the most critical dangerous items. If the Japanese can't find them, they will definitely not give up. In addition, I have a lot of things to arrange here. It's really beyond my capacity to handle two things by myself."

At this point, Dao Ya revealed a sly smile.

Zhao Xuan laughed, somewhat annoyed:

"Understood, the Ghost Squad is now yours."

Upon hearing this, Dao Ya was so excited she almost jumped up, but Zhao Xuan's next sentence immediately calmed her down.

"Limited to this mission only."

Daoya pouted and nodded unhappily:

"Okay, okay, you stingy little thing!"

"Then this matter is entrusted to you. You don't have much time left. Before those two experts realize that their items are missing, you have half an hour to make your plans."

After saying that, Zhao Xuan handed the nanophone to Dao Ya:
"Take this, and I'll keep you updated on the latest developments."

Dao Ya left the military police hospital in a hurry. Although she didn't know how her brother-in-law had managed to gather so much information in the hospital, she never doubted Zhao Xuan's words.

There are certain secrets that Daoya doesn't want to delve too deeply into.

She hasn't even figured out that her brother-in-law could get through to her when she couldn't make a phone call, so thinking about something that would require even more brainpower isn't Dao Ya's style.

Inside the special care ward, Zhao Xuan still had doubts, but since he had left everything to Dao Ya, he didn't intend to interfere too much.

My work style differs from Daoya's; if I do it myself, it might make Daoya's efforts less effective.

Zhao Xuan was also eager to see how much Dao Ya had grown after learning from her four masters and Song Rong.
After leaving the military police hospital, Dao Ya immediately contacted her masters using a nanophone.

This wasn't the first time Daoya had used the nanophone. She had secretly played with it before, and with just one sentence, it could dial a number in a designated place. It was so amazing that Daoya often wanted to keep it for herself.

After explaining the tasks to her four masters, Dao Ya quickly went to the place where Jiang Xiaoyue disposed of the stolen goods.

Daoya easily found two wallets in the flowerbed by the roadside.

After taking the wallet, Dao Ya headed straight for the street where the rickshaw driver was.

After listening to Edith's words over the nanophone, Daoya confirmed that the rickshaw driver waiting to pick up passengers not far away was the one who had taken the female thief today.

"Master, Seymour Road."

The driver looked pleasantly surprised as he got into the rickshaw, thinking how lucky he was. He had just dropped off a beautiful woman and now he had picked up a pretty girl.

These beauties all have one thing in common: they're light!
Not only are they pleasing to the eye, but they are also easy to deliver. Most importantly, the tips they receive are quite generous, so many rickshaw drivers like to deliver these beautiful women.

"Master, do you often travel around here?"

The driver was surprised that this pretty young woman would actually strike up a conversation with him, so he replied with a smile:
"I don't often drive this road, but coincidentally, this is the second time I've driven this road today. The previous customer didn't go to Seymour Road, but she was also going along this road. I feel like she was going to Seymour Road. Maybe she passed by the market and didn't go to Seymour Road, but just stopped to buy some groceries. When I left, I saw her go to the market."

Daoya's lips curled slightly as she continued:
"Oh? Master, you must be talking about a woman, right?"

The driver was somewhat surprised:

"Huh, how did you know?" "Hehe, otherwise why would you be staring at someone after you've already seen them off?"

The driver blushed.
"Ahem, well, haha."

Daoya knew the coachman was embarrassed, but she still continued to ask:
"Master, is that woman pretty?"

The driver was momentarily at a loss for words, but thinking that a good answer would likely earn him a larger tip, he cheerfully replied:
"She's not as pretty as you, Miss. She's just lucky to be wearing a cheongsam. If you wore a cheongsam, I guarantee you'd be prettier than her."

"Oh, what kind of cheongsam is she wearing?"

"It's blue, I don't know, anyway, I can't afford it."

Time flew by as we chatted, and soon we arrived at the residential area of ​​Seymour Road.

"Miss, here we are."

Dao Ya got out of the car with a smile. After paying the driver, she took out two silver dollars:

"Master, please wait here for me. I need to go somewhere else to visit my teacher. I'll be back in about ten minutes. Consider these two silver dollars a deposit, how about that?"

The driver's eyes lit up. Two silver dollars! That's a lot. He might not earn two silver dollars a day, even with tips.

"Thank you so much, Miss. Don't worry, I'll wait for you here. I'll wait for you, even if it's just for an hour, let alone ten minutes!"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Master."

The coachman, his mouth agape from being hooked, scratched his head and grinned foolishly as he watched Dao Ya walk towards the residential area.

As soon as Dao Ya entered the residential area, Chen Manli, who had been waiting there, came out from around the corner.

Upon seeing Chen Manli, Dao Ya nodded slightly and walked towards room number 112.

"The investigation has been completed. There are two sisters living in number 112. The older sister is named Jiang Xiaoyue, and the younger sister is named Jiang Xiaolan."

Upon hearing this, Dao Ya stopped in her tracks:

"Jiang Xiaolan?"

Chen Manli smiled:

"That's right, you should know the foreign language teaching assistant at Shenjiang University."

"I do know them. They're like senior students and also like teachers. I never expected it to be them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Manli reached out and took a bag.

Dao Ya was pleasantly surprised:
"Master, I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful."

Chen Manli handed over a bag of fruit and a packet of candy and pastries.

"Alright, go on. If that thing is really like what you said, I don't want to die."

"Don't worry, the older sister will help you with the driver's problem. She won't make things difficult for him."

They only arrested the driver's wife and children.

Chen Manli didn't say this to Dao Ya.

Dao Ya knocked on the door of apartment 112, carrying her belongings.

"Who?"

At that moment, the two sisters were eating when they heard a knock on the door. Jiang Xiaoyue asked impatiently, and Jiang Xiaolan smiled helplessly, stood up and went to the door.

Looking through the peephole, Jiang Xiaolan recognized the person outside and saw that it was a woman, so she opened the door.

Jiang Xiaoyue also put down her chopsticks and came over at this moment.

Upon seeing Dao Ya at the door, Jiang Xiaoyue frowned slightly. This person was unfamiliar; she had never seen her before.

But judging from my sister's expression, she seemed to know him. Could he be a colleague of hers at school? But he's too young!
So he's the younger sister's student?
Just as we were speculating, Dao Ya spoke up:

"Teacher Jiang, I apologize for the intrusion. I am Dao Ya. Do you remember me?"

Upon hearing the name, Jiang Xiaolan suddenly realized, but she was also a little curious as to why Dao Ya would come looking for her. She had almost no interaction with Dao Ya, having only taught them two classes.

"Dao Ya, please come in first."

As expected of her sister's student, Jiang Xiaoyue instantly lost interest and nonchalantly turned around and returned to the dining table.

After closing the door and leading Dao Ya into the living room, Jiang Xiaolan asked curiously:
"Dao Ya, is there something you need from me?"

Dao Ya placed the items on the coffee table and smiled at Jiang Xiaolan:
"Teacher Jiang, I've come to save you."

Jiang Xiaolan frowned, looking at Dao Ya with utter confusion. Jiang Xiaoyue also put down her chopsticks and turned to look at the living room with a fierce glint in her eyes.

Dao Ya ignored their gazes and began wandering around the room on her own:

"This afternoon around 4 p.m., a woman wearing a light blue cheongsam took a tram that passed through Nanjing Road. On the tram, the woman stole the wallets from two Japanese men."

At this point, Daoya took her wallet out of her handbag and tossed it onto the coffee table.

Jiang Xiaolan looked at Dao Ya with a puzzled expression, but the light blue cheongsam made Jiang Xiaolan suddenly turn around and look at her sister over at the restaurant.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyue had already gotten up and walked to the living room with a wary expression, staring intently at the complacent Dao Ya:
"Who are you? How do you know all this?"

When Dao Ya threw out those two wallets, Jiang Xiaoyue's heart almost jumped out of her throat.

"You can just throw your wallet away, but you shouldn't leave it so close to where you got on the rickshaw."

“You shouldn’t just pick any rickshaw and get on, so the driver will remember your appearance.”

"Most importantly, you shouldn't have stolen those two wallets!"

Jiang Xiaoyue broke down, and Jiang Xiaolan also learned what her sister did outside.

"Who are you anyway?"

Jiang Xiaoyue was in a somewhat delirious state, and Xiaolan quickly stepped forward to pull her agitated sister back:

"Sister, calm down."

After speaking, Xiaolan looked at Daoya:
"Dao Ya, you've come to us wanting your money back, right? If so, I can compensate you double, no, ten times."

Upon hearing the name Dao Ya, Jiang Xiaolan immediately remembered her and also knew that Dao Ya's family held high positions of power within No. 76.

Xiaolan trembles whenever she thinks about No. 76.

Many of her students were arrested and taken to No. 76 and never came out again. These things will always be a shadow in Xiaolan's heart.

That's why Jiang Xiaolan was afraid and pleaded after Dao Ya brought it up.

Hopefully, Dao Ya will consider their past relationship as teacher and student and let her sister off the hook.

Jiang Xiaoyue's face was grim as she stared intently at Dao Ya:
"Don't push yourself too far!"

Dao Ya sighed and looked at Jiang Xiaoyue, saying:
"You don't even realize your death is approaching? Do you think the Japanese are idiots? If you drag Teacher Jiang into this mess, is this how you act as an older sister?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyue was also frightened and didn't know what to say for a moment.

“I’ve already cleaned up your mess, but you’ve been posing as someone from the Jinxian Group and stealing everywhere. If the Japanese don’t get what they want back, you’re in for a tough time.”

"When the Japanese capture you two sisters, what do you think your fate will be?"

She even knew about Jin Xian, and knew that she was impersonating Jin Xian.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyue completely panicked. If she was just afraid before, she was now terrified.

She genuinely believed at the time that no one could trace her.

But how long has it been? Just over an hour since I stole those two wallets, and they've already come knocking on my door.

If it weren't Dao Ya who came, but a Japanese person directly, Jiang Xiaoyue shuddered and asked in a trembling voice:
"What do you want?"

Jiang Xiaolan looked at her sister with nervousness and worry, holding her sister's arm tightly, and for a moment she lost her composure.

Daoya shrugged and said in a flat tone:

"It's not a question of what I want to do, it's a question of what you want to do."

Jiang Xiaoyue glanced at her younger sister beside her, gave her a reassuring look, and then looked at Dao Ya, who was playing with a pistol, and continued:
“I’ll go with you. This has nothing to do with my sister.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaolan quickly stopped Jiang Xiaoyue:
"Dao Ya, it's me."

Daoya waved her hand:
"Can't you understand what I'm saying? When did I say I was going to arrest you? What I just said was that I've already cleared the way for your sister. Now the most troublesome thing is Jinxian, no, it should be said that it's what the Japanese want to take back the most."

Jiang Xiaoyue had already realized what was happening:

"You mean those two glass tubes?"

Xiao Lan was stunned, her gaze filled with confusion as she looked at her sister.

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyue took a book from the bookshelf next to her and took out two blue glass tubes from it.

Seeing Jiang Xiaoyue take out the item so carelessly, Dao Ya's heart trembled:
"Be careful, if this thing breaks, it's no joke."

As she spoke, Dao Ya stepped forward:

"You have ulterior motives."

Jiang Xiaoyue, who had originally planned to subdue Dao Ya after she arrived, didn't take these words seriously at first.

But just then, the door that had been closed was suddenly opened.

The two sisters looked towards the doorway together.

Wearing a rose-colored cheongsam, Chen Manli leaned against the door frame with a bright smile, playing with a delicate pistol.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaoyue completely gave up on the idea of ​​dealing with Dao Ya.

Dao Ya took the two wallets back from the coffee table and walked over to Jiang Xiaoyue, handing them directly to her:

"Put what was in your wallet back. Also, these two items are very dangerous. Put them back where you got them."

If her brother-in-law hadn't said that these two little things were related to his future plans, Dao Ya would never have let Jiang Xiaoyue return them.
