Chapter 65: Nothing to Gain
When the man next to the strange old lady saw us walking in, he immediately got up and shook hands with Uncle Li, and said in an extremely lame accent: "This must be Master Li! Welcome, welcome!" After speaking, he turned to the side and introduced the strange old lady behind him to Uncle Li, "This is Ms. Lin Rongzhen, I am her personal lawyer, and I am the one I contacted some time ago."

Uncle Li nodded to Lin Rongzhen, "Hello Ms. Lin, I'm very happy to see you, these three people I brought are all my assistants, I hope we can help you fulfill your wish for many years." β
Lin Rongzhen smiled and said to Uncle Li, "Master Li, you are too polite, please take a seat." After speaking, she picked up the phone and pressed it and said, "Sister-in-law Song, look at the tea." β
I never expected that this weird old lady would be Lin Rongzhen, and she spoke Mandarin so well.
At this time, a fat woman in her forties walked in with a tea tray and poured tea for us one by one. Uncle Li took a sip of this, I saw him pick up the teacup and smell it gently, and then said with a smile: "Good tea......"
Lawyer Yan immediately smiled and said, "I heard that Master Li is a person who understands tea, so Mr. Lin specially ordered someone to go to Yunnan to buy this cake for 30 years, and the master likes it." β
"Mr. Lin is too polite, in addition to the metaphysics of the I Ching, Li's favorite thing in his life is tea tasting, I didn't expect this little hobby to make you so expensive, how embarrassing is this!" Uncle Li said.
Lin Rongzhen waved his hand and said: "Master, you are a distinguished guest I invited, I naturally want to be courteous, I have always been like this to a master of mathematics like you, you don't want to see outside." β
Uncle Li slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said to Lin Rongzhen with a straight face: "I don't know what we need, can Ms. Lin prepare it?"
When Lin Rongzhen heard this, she nodded to Lawyer Yan, who took out a vermilion-lacquered wooden box from the safe, and Uncle Li glanced at me and motioned for me to go over and get it.
So I stepped forward and took the wooden box, and then slowly opened the lid, and found that there was an antique watch, an emerald jade pendant, and a very delicate pipe, all of which were very expensive at first glance.
I picked up one of the jade pendants, put it in the palm of my hand and clenched it tightly, trying to feel the remnant soul on it, but unfortunately I found nothing. I picked up two other things in quick succession, but I still couldn't feel anything.
I looked at Uncle Li with a puzzled expression, then shook my head and said, "Maybe something is wrong......
After hearing this, Uncle Li turned his head to Lin Rongzhen and said, "Ms. Lin, these three things can't be used, is there anything else?" It doesn't have to be very valuable, as long as it is something that your husband usually uses." β
Lin Rongzhen thought for a while, then stood up and said to us, "Then you can come with it." β
In this way, we followed Lin Rongzhen to a room on the third floor, and she told me that this was his husband's previous study, and all the furnishings in it had not been touched, because she had always thought that her husband was still alive and would return to this house sooner or later.
I listened to the sigh in my heart, there is really such an infatuated woman in the world, she has waited for her husband for 20 years and has not given up, I believe that if she didn't know that she was also dying, she would definitely continue to wait like this.
Although Lin Rongzhen is dressed strangely, she is an extremely smart woman, otherwise she would not have managed the company left by her husband so well. She knew that I was the key to finding her husband, so she only agreed that I could enter her husband's room alone.
I glanced back at Uncle Li, and he nodded to me and said, "Go ahead, we'll wait for you outside." β
I nodded, pushed the door open, and entered......
I thought there was some amazing secret in this room, but when I walked in, I realized that it was an ordinary study. Compared to the stylish dΓ©cor outside, everything here feels as if it was 20 years ago.
The light in the study was a little dim, and the overall tone was on the dark side, so I walked to the window and opened the heavy double floor-to-ceiling curtains, and the room immediately felt much brighter. This is worthy of being a study, there are two large walls of books inside, and there are some English originals on them, it seems that this Zhang Xuefeng should be a highly knowledgeable businessman.
There is a large jujube red writing desk in the middle of the study, the texture should be mahogany, and the top is very clean, not like no one has used it for a long time, it should be Lin Rongzhen who often asks people to clean it.
There are several photo frames on the desk, all of which are photos of Zhang Xuefeng and Lin Rongzhen, and Lin Rongzhen in the photo is still very young, and she is not dressed as weirdly as she is now. I ran my hand over each frame, feeling the remnants on it, but there was nothing.
It's terrible, if we really can't find that crucial object, then we will come to Hong Kong in vain this time! Thinking of this, I am a little anxious, this situation is what I am most afraid of encountering, this is a dead end, there is no way to break it......
I know that restlessness will not make things go in a good direction, I need to be calm, since this is a place that Lin Rongzhen has kept for 20 years, then it must have some special significance, at least this is the place where Zhang Xuefeng often haunted before his disappearance, and there should be something he cherishes and cares about here.
But apparently these photos are not ...... At this time, I looked up and saw an oil painting hanging on the wall, although I had no artistic attainments, I could still tell that the painting must have been made by some famous artist, and there was an English signature like a ghost painting in the lower right corner of the painting.
I reached out and touched the frame, but I didn't feel anything, so I reached for the oil painting in the frame again, and after touching it for a while, I felt a wave of disappointment in my heart, and it was still not right. Could it be that this Zhang Xuefeng is not dead? A big question came up in my heart.
But then I denied it, this matter is different from Zhao Min's matter, he is an adult man, he was kidnapped and disappeared, according to the information, all the kidnappers have been punished, and the main culprit who knows Zhang Xuefeng's whereabouts has been killed, if Zhang Xuefeng is really alive, then he will definitely try his best to go home, how can he be out of wandering for 20 years? Not to mention that he still has a net worth of hundreds of millions?
So I can be sure that Zhang Xuefeng is dead, in some corner that no one knows. Thinking about this Zhang Xuefeng, it's pitiful enough, no matter how rich he was during his lifetime, no matter how beautiful he was, what was the use? It's not the end of no one collecting the corpse!
Besides, this Zhang Xuefeng is strange enough, isn't there anything that makes him fall in love or nostalgia for the rest of his life? Then I continued to scratch around the books on the two walls, and the result was still the same.
