Chapter 178: Loving the Wrong Person
By the time K1 returned to the crown, the prom was over. At the end of the pen "Fun" pavilion www.biquge.info Wan Guohou stood alone behind the Poseidon Fountain, quietly looking at the water columns and splashes that seemed to never stop. The sparkling water of the spring reflected on his face, making him look even more elusive.
"Master Hou. K1 walked over, "I'm back." β
"Hmm. Wan Guohou seemed a little tired, and he nodded coldly.
"The police fenced off the scene, right? I just saw a police car on the road. β
"Z2 is greeting them, at the side door. Wan Guohou glanced at his watch, "It's already 12 o'clock." β
"Master Hou, you go to rest first, I'll come and see the scene. K1 persuaded.
Wan Guohou replied, "You don't have anything else, do you?"
K1 was stunned for a moment, "Uh, no. β
"Then come with me for a walk to the flower gallery. β
The two didn't say anything all the way, and K1 tried to find a topic to break the embarrassing silence several times, but he didn't know what to say. He was worried about Gao Xiangqi and Yue Shuluo, and he was worried that the police would cause inconvenience to the crown, and he also had a worry about Wan Guohou.
K1 once thought that he knew Wan Guohou very well, because he was the first person to know Wan Guohou, and he was also the most trusted person of Wan Guohou. But now, he couldn't understand Wan Guohou a little, just like at this moment, although he and Wan Guohou were walking side by side, he felt that there was an indistinct abyss between them.
When the two walked into the flower gallery, K1 finally couldn't help it, "Master Hou, do you have something to say to me?"
"No, I don't. Wan Guohou stopped him, "That's it." β
The flower gallery at midnight was pitch black, and the purple and red flowers turned into silent black shadows. The fragrance of the flowers is so intense that it is impossible to tell what it is.
"When I found out, I had to ask you a question. Wan Guohou stood still and said, "I feel very painful. β
"That's it, don't do that, it's scary, okay?" K1 scratched his head.
"You reported to me that the Moon Manager was missing because you couldn't find her in the crown, and then you found out that the camera had been spray-painted. β
"yes, what's wrong?"
"But how did you know that Gao Xiangqi was missing? Before the dance officially opened, I only told you to go to the head of the moon. There was no joy or anger in Wan Guohou's voice, "And at that time, Mr. Gao had not said that his daughter was gone." β
K1 was a little embarrassed, "I'm going to keep an eye on the guests, I didn't see Gao Xiangqi......"
"I hope you don't lie to me. Wan Guohou said calmly.
K1 sighed, he wasn't good at lying, especially when facing the Marquis of Wanguo. "Gao Xiangqi originally came to me. Although he couldn't see Wan Guohou's expression clearly, K1 could still feel Wan Guohou's burning gaze, and he continued stubbornly, "I told her to meet in the lounge on the second floor, and I prepared a Christmas gift for her there, and I wanted to give it to her there. β
Wan Guohou sighed, his voice as soft as a breeze. "Why did you give her a gift? I didn't tell you to approach Gao Jin's daughter. β
"Master Hou, she has leukemia. K1 couldn't help but raise her voice a little, "She's only 18 years old." β
Wan Guohou shrugged, "I'm sorry. β
The wind howling in the winter night makes people feel cold, but the temperature in the flower gallery is constant, and the fence of flowers and leaves keeps the wind out of the flower gallery, so the two of them do not feel cold.
"There are many unfortunate people in this world, but I can't help all sentient beings. Wan Guohou seemed a little sad.
"But. K1 endured the pain in his heart and said sadly, "Master Hou, it's really not easy for her." In a way, she was still a child. After saying that, his black face suddenly turned red, but fortunately the night was like ink, and no one saw it.
Wan Guohou took a silent step.
"She is only 18 years old, she likes cotton and linen shirts, small white cloth shoes, and does not like to wear skirts. Usually she loves to listen to Chen Qizhen's songs, and she has saved a bunch of picture albums, painting and reading albums when she has nothing to do. She likes cats and wants to raise two Siames, but is worried that cats will affect her health, so her father won't let her keep them. She has McDull's movies in her phone because she thinks the pig is cute. K1 followed, babbling, "She's such a simple little girl, I don't think I can think of her as an enemy." β
"What I had been fearing for a long time, it happened. Wan Guohou looked at the straight corridor in front of him, secretly glad that the slight night blindness caused by iris staining did not affect him. "Of course I won't hinder your feelings, but this time, I'm afraid you're in love with the wrong person. β
"Master Hou, I'm not what you think about her. K1 blushed, "I really took care of her as a little sister." β
"I hope so. β
K1 couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he heard Wan Guohou say this, "Master Hou, you haven't had in-depth contact with Gao Xiangqi, so you may not know about it." Gao Xiangqi is completely different from her father, she is a very simple and kind girl, and she basically doesn't know what her father has done. β
Wan Guohou was reluctant to talk to K1 about this matter, so he quietly diverted the topic. "So, Gao Xiangqi didn't show up in the lounge as agreed, and she wasn't in the hall, so you suspect that something happened to her?"
"Yes. β
"Anyway, you can't let Gao Jin find out that you and Gao Xiangqi are very close. Wan Guohou continued, "Gao Jin will be suspicious of your intentions. Moreover, the father of an 18-year-old girl will most likely not believe that a man 9 years older than his daughter just wants to be friends with his daughter. β
β...... I understand. β
"What do you think of tonight's events?"
K1 scratched his head, "I can't say it well, I think Nan Zeyu and Yu Jingbo are quite suspicious." Gao Jin shouldn't have any problems, he can't kidnap his daughter, that won't do him any good. β
Wan Guohou nodded, "He really can't show me a bitter trick." He sneered, "I was a little excited at first, thinking that it was the 'Unkind Society' that did it, but I didn't expect it to be a little thief." β
"Master Hou. K1 said cautiously, "How do you conclude that these people aren't 'Unkind?"
"You forgot the crucial point. If it was someone they arrested, shouldn't they ask for amber to be exchanged?What do you want for 3 billion?" Wan Guohou touched his beard, "If I hadn't overestimated the 'Buren Society', they should have at least investigated the scale of my industry and assets, then they should know that this money is not a loss for me." And how much significance does this money have to the 'Buren Society'? Not to mention 3 billion, even if it is doubled, it is impossible to buy seven-colored amber on the market. β
"You're right. K1 said convincingly, "In this way, it really can only be a hooligan for money." β
"Nan Zeyu has a close relationship with the 'Buren Society', and his every move may be instructed by the 'Buren Society'. From this, it can basically be concluded that this matter has nothing to do with him, and this is not like what the director of public security will do at all. β
"You mean, Yu Jingbo?"
"But why did Yu Jingbo collude with a gang of hooligans to blackmail me and Gao Jin? There are reasons to blackmail me, but with his relationship with Gao Jin, how could he beat Gao Jin's idea?" Wan Guohou slowed down, "although his performance tonight is really a bit weird. β
"Perhaps, he is in a hurry to use the money?"
Wan Guohou shook his head, "He doesn't have a funding gap for the time being, so it can't be regarded as a lack of money." What's more, even if he was short of money, there was no need for him to kidnap, and even killed someone. This is in China, where the pressure of homicide cases is very high, and the police will not ignore it, and he will not fail to understand this truth. β
"I'm confused by what you said. K1 smiled bitterly and said, "Master Hou, who do you think did it?"
Wan Guohou thought for a moment, "Have you seen tonight's surveillance video?"
"Yes. β
"Did you find any abnormalities in Nan Zeyu and Yu Jingbo?"
K1 bitterly recalled, "Nan Zeyu seemed to be absent-minded all night, he didn't dance, he just chatted with Shameng, and greeted a few other officials. Yu Jingbo looked at his watch after a while, this guy did dance, but he didn't look very interested. The performance of the two is half a catty. β
"There's one thing I'm concerned about. Wan Guohou turned his head slightly, dodging a branch of flowers hanging from the top of the flower gallery. "Why did they send the Moon Administrator's watch?"
"Probably to prove that the Moon Manager is in their hands. K1 said, "The kidnappers' usual tactics. β
"Manager Yue has a lot of jewelry on her, do you remember?" Wan Guohou gently touched the cufflinks, "I remember that she wore a necklace, earrings, and brooches. Maybe something else. These things can prove her identity, and if the watch is not advantageous from the point of view of the convenience of removal, then why did the kidnappers choose her watch?"
K1 Stopper.
Unless, the kidnappers knew in advance that her watch had other functions. Wan Guohou frowned, "I remember, apart from poker-men, the Moon Manager has not shown other functions of the watch in front of others. β
"Master Hou, Manager Yue has used his watch to talk to guests several times. K1 reminded, "It's possible that someone noticed this detail." β
"Neiying told the kidnappers that the watch has other functions, so the kidnapper sent the watch?" Wan Guohou couldn't help but laugh, "Is this because we're afraid that we don't know that there is Neiying?"
"Maybe they don't care you know about it, but they're in their hands anyway. K1 sighed.
Wan Guohou nodded, "In short, Gao Jin mentioned a person named Wu Chen, and this person is very suspicious. He called Gao Jin today and asked Gao Jin to help him find a job, but he was refused, and Gao Jin suspected that this Wu Chen was taking revenge for personal gain. β
"Okay, I'll check this person up. β
"You have to be careful to avoid Gao Jin, he must have sent someone to check on Wu Chen. β
"Don't worry, I know. β
"If you find Wu Chen, maybe you will have an answer. Wan Guohou said lightly, "But before that, we have to do two things first. β
You say. β
"First of all, you have to inform everyone and get ready for battle, and second, you will take a few men with me to the vault tomorrow to withdraw money. Wan Guohou happened to walk beside a Lirui Golden Flower Tea at this time, and the sweet fragrance of the flowers made him suddenly a little dazedβrecently, the moon gargle fell on the perfume tied with camellias.
K1 saw that Wan Guohou stopped where he was, so he waited patiently for a while, but Wan Guohou seemed to be lost in thought, and did not say anything for a long time.
"Master Hou?"
Wan Guohou came back to his senses, "Well, the courier didn't lie, right?"
"No, he's telling the truth. The man was indeed wearing a mask, and the surveillance at the door captured it. β
"What about the van?"
"I found it too, no, I found it. The gang drove a car to deliver a courier, then drove into a garbage dump and lost the car. The garbage dump is a blind spot, and there's no way to find out where they've gone. I arranged for a couple of people to search the dump, but it shouldn't be there. β
"You can think of it. Wan Guohou smiled helplessly. "By the way, what happened to the thing I asked you to investigate secretly?"
"It's true that E1 is Italian, that's for sure. "But he also lied, and when he talked to us, he often said that he was running back and forth in Italy, France, and the United States. β
"I have an impression. β
"But he deliberately avoided a country. K1 said with some dissatisfaction, "Switzerland." He lived in Switzerland for many years. β
Wan Guohou's eyelids jumped slightly, and at the same time, his heart sank. "Where did he live in Switzerland?"
"We really can't find out this, we only know that he lives in Zurich, and he definitely doesn't use his real identity. β
Wan Guohou pondered for a moment, "He even said about what he had been in the Neon Country, but he deliberately concealed his life experience in Switzerland, which is interesting." β
"Otherwise, don't assign him a task during this time. β
Wan Guohou shook his head, "It would be too arbitrary to conclude that he was an undercover agent based on this article alone. He thought for a while, "It's better to be the same as before, everything remains the same, you don't investigate him for the time being, and the kidnapping is solved first." β
"Yes. K1 replied respectfully.
"Let's go back. Wan Guohou glanced at his watch, "By the way, go eat something, you should be hungry too." β
K1 grinned, "Really, if you don't say it, I forgot." He rubbed his belly, "I'm hungry enough to eat a cow now." β
"Okay, then let the chef cook more beef. Wan Guohou couldn't help laughing, "How much he makes, how much you eat." β
K1 smiled and said, "Master Hou, you know me, it's hard to say anything else, the digestion ability is first-class." If the crown has a big stomach king competition in the future, I'm really not afraid of anyone. β
"I don't think you're even better than T3, or even E1. β
K1's eyes widened immediately, "T3 won't talk about it, E1 is a head shorter than me, how many things can he hold in that little stomach?"
Wan Guohou laughed, "Originally, I had a lot of things to consider, but after chatting with you for a while, it seems that these troubles have disappeared. β
K1 said proudly: "Master Hou, our relationship is not ordinary." At this time, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he blurted out, "Master Hou, I heard Gao Xiangqi say that her father only came to the magic capital in 2011, and he only started learning Japanese in 2011." β
"What do you want to say?"
"I met you, also in 2011. K1 hesitated, "You and Gao Jin, have you known each other for many years?"
The smile on Wan Guohou's face disappeared, "Yes, he killed someone who was very important to me. β
K1's heart sank, and he read a strong killing intent from Wan Guohou's tone.
