The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 536 Somewhat Familiar
"Tom!"

A wooden barrel hit the ground heavily, and the iron hoop fell apart immediately, and the long and short boards fell to the ground.

Hearing the sound of impact, a group of policemen stopped chasing and carefully scanned the surrounding environment with their ears up.

The figure that just ran past seemed to be injured, and staggered into the small dilapidated alley at the corner of the street.

The target is gone.

Immediately, the police noticed two pedestrians on the side of the road.

The young girl was dressed in a gorgeous cheongsam with a fringed shawl, and beside her stood a man in a neat military uniform and a military cap.

The women are good-looking and well-dressed.

Most of them are the wives, misses, or concubines of the big military officers in the city, and they take the guards out to go shopping in the streets when they have nothing to do.

After a distance of about ten meters, Vice Captain Zhao who took the lead quietly observed for a while, still worried.

He waved to them as he walked: "Hey, did you two see a masked man with a gun just now?"

Qilan clenched her fists secretly, hiding the wet water stains on her palms.

That wooden barrel was thrown by him.

In order to divert the attention of the police, buy a little more time to help the person being chased get away.

The corners of Shi'an's slightly pursed lips were slightly bent, and the heels of his shoes turned on the spot to block in front of him.

"We only looked at the interesting shops, and we couldn't see a lot of interesting ones."

While speaking, she kept her strings tensed——
Every word must not reveal any flaws, trying to make the interrogating police not suspicious.

Even if he was caught, it would be a mistaken arrest at best;
And once Qilan falls into trouble, it may be difficult to break free from the iron claws of the dark forces.

After listening to her answer, Deputy Captain Zhao raised his head without saying a word.

Turning around in doubt, his sharp eyes scanned all the tall and short shops nearby.

Candy, embroidered shoes, gouache, four treasures of the study, flowers, birds, fish and insects.
Just a bunch of useless stuff.

Only those who have nothing to do can spend their time tirelessly, even boring things can be played.

"Girl is really interesting." He sneered a few times, staring firmly into her eyes, "Don't just think about it. If you turn around and see the person we want to arrest, you must report to the police station!"

"Yes, I understand!"

After listening to these warnings patiently, Shi'an took out a beautiful small mirror from her purse.

From hair to face, an intoxicating self-appreciation.

Vice Captain Zhao couldn't help frowning, let them go and called his men to search in another direction.

After the group of people had gone far away, Qilan walked alone to the small broken alley where the masked man fled, walking fast and anxiously.

"The guy inside has a gun, I don't know if it's good or bad"

"Wait a minute, don't approach if it's dangerous"

She was wearing high heels and couldn't run fast.I had no choice but to chase after him with all my strength, persuading him in a low voice, hoping to calm down my companion.

"Don't worry too much," he suddenly laughed, "Don't you think that figure looks familiar?"

"With your face covered and a gun in hand, you can't tell what you look like at all."

"Think about it, who came out with you last night and someone shot--"

"Ah!" Shi'an was very surprised, "Could it be Brother Qijiang?!"

"Judging from the posture of holding the gun in both hands, he looks like my second brother," Qilan nodded, "He has studied in the military academy in Tokyo, so it's not easy to admit it."

Although it was inconceivable that someone could be recognized just by the posture of holding a gun, Shi'an didn't say anything, and walked beside him silently.

If the guy who doesn't know the details shoots, she can always hold up the small leather bag to block it.

The small broken alley is getting narrower and narrower, and every time you take a small step, you can clearly hear the beating sound of the heart coming from the chest cavity.

"Shh!"

Qilan stopped suddenly, quickly pushed Shi'an behind her, and stretched out her hands to block in front of her.

A burst of intermittent groans, sandwiched in the whistling northwest wind, could be heard clearly.

At first, he also thought it was his second brother Qijiang who had been missing for a while.

Taking a closer look, except for the similar height, they are not similar in other places, but they just look familiar.

"Why are you messing with the police?"

Qilan asked peacefully, but got no response.

A man was facing the broken earth wall, half lying and half sitting, gritting his teeth and not making a sound.

Shi'an was eager to see the situation of that person, so she tiptoed to look inside.

Accidentally stepping on gravel, the heel slipped and fell to the ground.

Strangely, the masked man ignored Qilan, but turned his head with difficulty when Shi'an got up in embarrassment, and glanced at her.

"Miss He"

How could you know me? !
She tried to stay calm, clenched the small purse, and boldly looked at the other party.

The left hand covered the right arm, and the right hand pressed a wound on the waist.

Blood dripped from between the fingers, and the two pistols at his feet were also stained with a lot of blood.

Despite being severely wounded and unable to stand up, the masked guy showed no hostility or defensiveness.

Staring at that person and looking again and again, Shi'an suddenly heard a sound of "Shua!".

Qilan stretched out his hand abruptly and tore off the cloth wrapped around his face.

"So it's you?! I'm going to find you!"

Li Yan raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face, and replied angrily:

"That's a lot of nonsense. What if the others hadn't shot you earlier?"

"Today at first I thought it was my second brother who came. Your moves with guns are very similar to his."

Qilan said while bending over to help him stand up.

"That time at Tianjin Railway Station, I saw your brother was very good at playing double guns, so I wrote it down and practiced it every day. I learned it a long time ago."

The corners of Li Yan's mouth raised slightly, he was not humble, and even had a little pride brought by his talent.

"Why did you fight with the police today?" Shi'an asked in confusion, "If Qilan hadn't thrown a wooden barrel to lure them away, how could it be so easy to escape?"

"I went to the post office to check the letter in the afternoon, and was followed by two plainclothes on the way."

"I killed them, snatched the pistol, covered my face."

"As a result, a team of police patrolling the street was attracted"

After Li Yan finished speaking, he covered his chest, bowed his head and coughed violently.

Qilan couldn't free his hand while supporting him, so Shi'an hurried over to help him pat his back.

"Things outside your body are not as important as life," she comforted softly, "No matter what the letter is, it won't be too late to figure it out after you recover from your injury."

Li Yan blushed suddenly, he didn't know if it was from coughing or shyness.

"I still have a handkerchief that Ms. He borrowed last time in my pocket. I wanted to wash it and return it to the original owner, but it was injured and dirty again."

"No need to pay it back."

"Cough cough."

He took a long time to calm down, and his face was a little redder than before.

"Shi'an, you go to Li Ji Tailor and wait for me. Send him to a place for treatment first."

"Okay." Before she left, she hurriedly opened the small leather bag, and stuffed a small embroidered purse into Li Yan's hand, "Take these for medical expenses."

"Need not!"

Li Yan kept shaking his head, but Qilan squatted down without saying a word, picked him up quickly, and trotted towards the inconspicuous place on the side of the street.
