Chapter 384 Clues

Updated: 2013-03-21

After Wang Ziqi returned from the press conference, editor-in-chief Wang Tao was looking at information in the office of Northeast Daily.

Wang Tao was born in Fuli Village, Changzhou County, Suzhou Prefecture in 1828. He was originally named Wang Libin. He was admitted to the scholar in 1845 and changed his name to Wang Han in the same year. Four years later, he was invited by the British missionary Maitushi to work at the Mohai Library in Shanghai. In 1862, he wrote a letter to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom under the pseudonym Huang Wan, offering suggestions and strengthening his rule. Later, he was discovered by the Qing court and ordered arrest. With the help of the British consul in Shanghai, he fled to Hong Kong. Later, he was invited to assist the president of Yinghua Academy, Lejaco, to translate the Thirteen Classics into English. At this time, in order to prevent the Qing court's tracking and persecution, Wang Han officially changed his name to Wang Tao, and was known as the top scholar in the long hair!

From the winter of 1867 to the spring of 1868, Wang Tao traveled to France, Britain and other countries, and had a deeper understanding of Western modern civilization. From 1868 to 1870, he lived in Dura Village, Clarkmannan County, Scotland, and assisted Jacob. He returned to Hong Kong in 1870. In 1874, he raised funds in Hong Kong to establish the "Circular Daily" to comment on current affairs and advocate reforms, which had a great influence. In 1879, Wang Tao was invited by Japanese literati to Japan for a four-month inspection. Wang Tao visited Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama and other cities and wrote "Travels of Fusang".

Wang Tao returned to Shanghai, which had been away for more than 20 years in 1884, and the following year he served as the president of Shanghai Gezhi Academy. Later, due to the sincere invitation of Northeast Daily, he went to Northeast Daily to become the deputy editor-in-chief of Northeast Daily and has now been promoted to editor-in-chief. Shanghai Gezhi Academy has also been absorbed and reorganized by relevant Northeast systems. It is currently very famous in Shanghai, with more than 500 students, and teaches Western learning.

Unlike people like Wang Ziqi who were buried in history, Wang Tao is known as the father of Chinese journalism and a famous foreign affairs commentator. From the time he arrived in the Northeast, he highly praised Wang Yi's new policy in the Northeast. At the same time, he was not sure if it was the reason for the persecution of the Qing court in his early years. He was completely opposite to Liu Guangdi's political stance, advocated national equality and resolutely used force to overthrow the corrupt rule of the Qing Dynasty. In Wang Yi's joke, it was the old and angry young man.

"Are you back?" Seeing Wang Ziqi, Wang Tao stood up to greet him and poured him a cup of tea.

"Ha, you haven't gotten off work yet?"

"You also know that I am alone in the Northeast. My son and daughter-in-law have returned to their hometown to visit relatives and will not be back in May." Wang Tao smiled and continued, "I am also 60 years old, and I can't do it for a few years in this position. Doing more now is a little bit to save any regrets in the future."

"Look at what you said, your body is much better than me, and you say you retire too early." Wang Ziqi took off the cotton coat on his body and hung it on the hanger.

After the two of them took their seats, Wang Tao asked: "How is the case? What's the progress in the Prime Minister's Office?"

"I saw Wang Yi, but he didn't say much about the case. During the Q&A, Liu Guangdi seemed to have to count the responsibility for the casualties of this attack on him. Unexpectedly, Wang was not very old and his eloquence was not bad. Coupled with his righteous and firm expression, Liu Guangdi had a big roast chicken neck."

Wang Tao heard Liu Guangdi's name and snorted coldly.

"Qing dog and thief."

Wang Ziqi knew Wang Tao’s life experience, so he didn’t think it was strange and smiled and said, “He is a Hakka.”

While talking, another person walked in from outside. Compared to the two of them, this person was much younger. He was only in his early twenties. He had no braids and was not tall, but he was very solid, dark-skinned, and looked energetic.

"Hehe, two big guys, I can find good materials today."

His name is Han Yunde. Like Wang Ziqi, he is a person who has not left his name in history. However, in the eyes of Wang Tao, the editor-in-chief of the Northeast Daily, there is a kind of joy of promising future. Wang Yi changed history, and countless talents got rid of the suffocation shackles that were once imposed by the great powers on the tragic fate of the Chinese nation, and bravely advanced on the road of their own lives.

"Let me tell me!" Wang Tao showed his interest.

Han Yunde took out the small notebook he carried with him and said, "Today I went to the police station to check in to see if there are any cases that can be reported. The two big guys also know that because of the martial law in Shengjing City yesterday, although the whole city of Shengjing City was lifted earlier today, most of the police forces in the police station were still investigating this matter. Speaking of which, it was me, if the reporters from other newspapers, the police would have driven them away long ago."

"Just brag!" Wang Ziqi smiled and scolded. "Hurry up and talk about the serious business."

Han Yunde was embarrassed and was used to being teased by his two bosses. Both of them were grandfathers and grandchildren, and he knew that his little arms could not twist his thighs. "That's right, in order not to make me hate in the police station, Captain Chen from our branch told me a news that I was willing to go and investigate. A missing case occurred in Huanggu District."

"Missing case?"

Wang Ziqi and Wang Tao looked at each other, not understanding what the meaning of Han Yunde's investigation of this case at this critical moment is. Although the public security in Shengjing is generally peaceful, there will always be several cases of missing population cases a year. In normal times, it is normal to report it. But now... Fortunately, these two people are deep, so they continue to listen. Obviously, Han Yunde's statement is still there.

"Originally, I didn't want to go. Later, I thought that the police are busy with foreign affairs and have no time to pay attention to me. If they are lying on, they will inevitably be hurt. When I think, I am still idle, so I just went there." Han Yunde said with a mouthful of foam. In order to relieve his breath, he took a sip of water and continued: "The missing person is a widowed man, living alone in a small courtyard. Neighbors haven't seen him for a few days, and they thought they had gone to visit relatives. Later, a child kicked the shuttlecock into his home and climbed the wall and saw the house inadvertently messy, as if someone had been turned over. Residents around the neighbors all knew that the old man had no wives and children, and he was the widower and widower, and his legs were not smooth, so they reported the matter to the local police station."

Wang Ziqi and Wang Tao listened very seriously, and Han Yunde's eyes lit up when he talked about Huanggu District.

"When I arrived at the yard, I found that it was not far from the moat bridge, which was the site of the explosion attack. And from the back door of the yard, you can go to the moat through a very secret road, and there are no other people around."

"What do you mean is that the attacker of the explosion was hiding in this small courtyard before?" Wang Tao and Wang Ziqi both reacted at this time.

"That's true. Later, I searched along the path in the backyard and found that there was a piece of land next to an old apricot tree, which was dug up and the surface was full of new soil. Later, I asked the residents nearby and they didn't know what was going on. When I hired someone to dig it up, I found a corpse from it. After the residents around me identified it, it was confirmed that it was the missing old man. The people from the Eastern Intelligence Bureau had already begun to take over the investigation. After the other party agreed to the facts, they would give me a scoop." After that, Han Yunde laughed proudly.
