Chapter 1733

~2 min read 241 words

This day, Section Chief Pi's wife, Meng Lan, received a phone call while at work. When she picked up the phone, a low male voice said to her, "May I ask, are you Meng Lan?"

Meng Lan said, "Yes, I am Meng Lan. May I ask who you are?"

"Don't worry about who I am. Is it convenient for you to take a call right now?"

Meng Lan was a staff member at the Archives Bureau. Her work was very leisurely, and her unit didn't have many employees. She looked around and said into the receiver, "It's convenient. What on earth do you want with me?"

Meng Lan felt a bit strange and also a bit uneasy. She felt the voice on the phone was inexplicable and always felt it would bring her some bad news.

"Do you go play mahjong every Saturday and Sunday afternoon?"

Meng Lan said, "How do you know? You're not a policeman, are you?"

Because her work was leisurely, Meng Lan did indeed like playing mahjong. Basically, every weekend afternoon, she would make appointments with a few mahjong friends to play. However, in this era, playing mahjong was still prohibited. Therefore, they played secretly. If caught by the police, the consequences would be quite serious: gambling money would be confiscated, fines would be imposed, and it might even be reported to their units.

Therefore, hearing the voice on the phone, Meng Lan felt a bit nervous.
