Huang Ziqi looked at Meng Wentian with admiration.

In fact, this thing is very simple, that is, "a secret is a secret only when it is not made public, and only then can someone die to keep it." But once it is made public, it is not a secret, and those who want to keep it are most likely to think about how to deal with the aftermath. ”

Following behind Meng Wentian, Huang Ziqi asked: "Wentian, do you really say that Zhang Haiqing hid the handle in his office as he said? The office is full of people, how can it be possible to hide these things, and those people are not easy to find them and lose their souls?"

Meng Wentian smiled disappreciatively: "Who knows, maybe here, maybe not here." We look for it and lose nothing. …… Open the door. ”

Huang Ziqi took out a key-like object from his pocket and opened Zhang Haiqing's office door with a few clicks at the keyhole of the door. Before Meng Wentian walked in, Huang Ziqi, who had entered the office first, began to check impatiently, looking for anything unusual in the office, and kept sweeping his eyes to the desk, the wall behind the desk, the bookcase on the left, the coffee table in the reception area, and the ceiling......

Although the office is not cold, but it is not luxurious, there is no legendary bedroom, toilet or anything, only an office area and a reception area, after all, this is just a town mayor's office, and at this time the luxury office has not become popular, plus Taniguchi Town is a poor town, the town government office building is still an old brick house built more than ten years ago, it is impossible to get a bedroom and a bathroom, unless the building is greatly renovated.

After closing the door, Huang Ziqi began the search according to the standard procedure of the police to search the room, while Meng Wentian stood silently in the middle of the office and looked unhurriedly. He estimated that Zhang Haiqing would not put other people's handles, that is, the black materials that were to blackmail others, in a place that could obviously be searched, if so, these black materials would have been stolen a long time ago, and he would never let them be placed here to let himself be controlled by Zhang Haiqing.

Sure enough, Huang Ziqi turned the drawers in the office and found nothing, but only found a few stacks of banknotes, adding up to about five or six thousand yuan. Because it was divided into several stacks, and many of them were enveloped, Meng Wentian guessed that the money should have been bribed by Zhang Haiqing, and he didn't have time to pack it up, or he didn't bother to hide it, so that Huang Ziqi easily found it.

Huang Ziqi was obviously unwilling, and he gently tapped his fist on the four walls of the office, trying to find out the legendary secret grid or something. But after being busy for a long time, I still didn't get anything.

In the end, he looked at Meng Wentian and shook his head, and said, "No! Jiang Yuanshi lied to us, or he himself didn't know. ”

Meng Wentian, who had been quietly observing and occasionally watching Huang Ziqi's search, said: "Not necessarily. So saying, he walked to the far left of the room, with his heels on the wall, and then naturally walked to the far right of the room, his steps were steady and even, and he counted his steps silently until he could no longer walk.

Huang Ziqi asked puzzledly: "What are you doing here? I punched these two walls just now, there can be no secret grid or something." …… , maybe he hid them in the ceiling. ”

Soon, he took a broom from behind the office door, grabbed the lower end of the broom handle with his right hand, and struck the ceiling with the top of the broom handle, hitting it piece by piece, making a "tom!tom!" sound.

Meng Wentian ignored him, but walked out of Zhang Haiqing's office, walked to Jiang Yuanshi's office just now, and asked a criminal policeman guarding here to open the door.

Walking into Jiang Yuanshi's office, Meng Wentian walked from the left wall of the office to the right wall of the office, remembering the number of steps and then walking from the far right to the left, comparing the number of steps taken twice, and then walked out of this office and returned to Zhang Haiqing's office.

Huang Ziqi asked, "How is it?"

Meng Wentian said with certainty: "There is a mezzanine!"

"Ah-" Huang Ziqi looked at Meng Wentian in surprise and said, "Impossible, I hit it with my fist, and I didn't hear any strange sound, how can there be a mezzanine?"

Meng Wentian didn't answer him, but looked at the office again, pointed to the door of the office and said, "This door has been artificially moved one meter to the right. ”

Huang Ziqi was still unconvinced at first, but after carefully observing the distance between the window and the door on the wall, he nodded and said, "It's possible...... , no wonder I can't knock out the famous, it turns out that he simply built an extra wall. How wide is this mezzanine?"

Meng Wentian said: "The wall is estimated to be one meter. ”

The walls are made of red bricks, with a layer of cement painted on them, and a layer of white 888 on top of the cement. Underneath the walls, wooden wall skirtings about a meter high were installed. This kind of decoration is very common in the city nowadays, and it looks very upscale in the countryside.

After confirming that the left wall had a mezzanine, the two began to look for the strange part of the left wall, but unfortunately they searched for a long time but did not find it, and even took down the plaque hanging on the wall and found no clue.

The two of them tapped carefully from time to time, and listened attentively from time to time, but neither could find the entrance to the wall.

Huang Ziqi couldn't help but ask, "Did he open the entrance to the office next door?"

Meng Wentian shook his head and said, "Impossible." The entrance was not in front of him, and he was absolutely not at ease. …… Now...... Now...... By the way, could the entrance be this wall pillar?"

Although it is a brick house, it still has concrete pillars, but the pillars are joined together, or the brick walls are inlaid between the columns.

"Wall pillars?" Huang Ziqi looked it up and down, and suddenly said in surprise, "Yes! Look, these screws on these strips are so new!"

When decorating the wall, some plastic or wooden strips are generally installed at the corners to protect the corners of the wall from being artificially damaged, and these plastic strips or wooden blocks are called guards.

Seeing those inconspicuous screws, Meng Wentian couldn't help but sigh: "What an ingenious idea." If we hadn't concluded that he had built mezzanine walls here, who would have noticed them?"

When Meng Wentian sighed, Huang Ziqi had already taken off the keychain from his belt, and there was a Swiss army knife on it, and the saber naturally had a cross and a word on it. He squatted on the ground and got busy, and Meng Wentian was next to assist.

Soon, several screws were removed, and Huang Ziqi took away the strip on the left.

The two of them noticed the difference in the wall skirting, although it looked the same as the other wall skirtings, but here it was independent, and the gap covered by the sheath was also revealed in front of the two of them.

Huang Ziqi glanced at Meng Wentian with admiration, and his hands sped up the speed of disassembling the other screws.

As the strip on the right was removed, the wall skirting in front of them became even more unusual. When Huang Ziqi took off all the upper and lower strips, Meng Wentian easily took off the fake wall skirt, revealing a white wall.

Huang Ziqi said: "Damn! This guy is really scheming." No wonder I'm knocking around, the sound here is similar to the rest of the place. ”

Naturally, this exposed white wall is also free.

Meng Wentian saw that there was a faintly visible handprint on its right, and he also tentatively pressed it lightly towards the handprint, only to hear a crisp click, and the wall popped out gently.

Huang Ziqi happily pulled out the pop-up wall, revealing a swarthy hole in front of their eyes.

Meng Wentian stretched his head over, and saw not only the mezzanine but also the wooden shelves in the mezzanine.

He tentatively moved the wooden frame with his hand, and the wooden frame moved in the direction he forced, and the wooden frame here was actually installed on the track!

This time, Meng Wentian also had to sigh that Zhang Haiqing had put a lot of thought into it: how much thought did Zhang Haiqing put into this mezzanine and the wooden frame inside. It must have taken him a lot of time to make such an ingenious mechanism, right? How did he do such a complex mechanism without realizing it?

As the wooden frame was dragged, Meng Wentian saw that the wooden frame was also divided into square boxes, and there were a lot of things in it, including banknotes, gold jewelry, file bags, paper, and some strange clothes, iron rods, knives, and other things. They even saw a rusty pistol.

These boxes are also labeled with the following words: Superior leaders, town government officials, and subordinates......

Meng Wentian casually picked up a file bag in a box labeled "town government cadre", opened it and took out a few pieces of paper from it. glanced at his eyes, and immediately smiled bitterly: what was written on these pieces of paper turned out to be black materials about Jiang Yuanshi, and the top one was Jiang Yuanshi's own handwritten repentance book about him insulting a female elementary school teacher!

It is estimated that Jiang Yuanshi's insult to this female teacher was discovered by Zhang Haiqing or Zhang Haiqing's subordinates, and then forced him to write this self-evidence material. With this material, what Zhang Haiqing wants Jiang Yuanshi to do, the other party can only do it obediently.

After reading Jiang Yuanshi's materials, Meng Wentian didn't read any further, he believed that those files marked with "superior leaders" or something meant that Zhang Haiqing had seized the handle of some cadres. As for those clothes and knives, they are also physical evidence collected by Zhang Haiqing to control others.

He got up from the ground, clapped his hands, and said to Huang Ziqi: "I'm leaving, and I'll hand it over to you police." You can do what you say, I don't care. ”

Not only did he not care about the black materials that Zhang Haiqing mastered, he didn't even care about Zhang Haiqing. In his opinion, what he helped Hua Yi has been done, and the rest is the police's business.

But when he called Hua Yi and said that he was going to rent a car to go back to his home in Nanling County, Hua Yi resolutely and angrily stopped him, ordering him to stay and stay with her for a few days on the phone - protect her for a few days before leaving.
