Chapter 81
The scene was a mess, the Christmas Ball had been held for many years, and it was the first time that it had encountered such a situation on the third day, when the police cars of the patrol house roared and sped in, and the panicked guests rushed out as if they had grasped a life-saving straw.

A man who looked like a waiter was swept to the ground in this flow of people, and Gu Shaoqing and I glanced at each other, intending to get up and help him.
At the moment when we held his arm, Gu Shaoqing was held to his head by a bright shell gun.
"Senior brother!"
I exclaimed, incredulous.
"Don't move!"
The man quickly stood up from the ground, completely helpless and helpless, he was not knocked to the ground by the fleeing guests in front of him, but fell to the ground specifically to attract our attention!
The sound of the trigger pulling rang in my ears, and the smell of gunsmoke filled the air.
"Young Master Gu, come with us!" Min Jiahao, who disappeared for a moment, walked out of the shadows, at this time the sky was dark, the surroundings were dark, and not far away, the red police car lights flashed non-stop, as if to appease the frightened crowd. No one noticed that in the corner of the west side of the hall, a group of people were pressing a pair of young men and women towards the aisle of the side hall.
Gu Shaoqing and I were stuffed into the car on the side of the road, and two black-clothed men sat in a left and right circle, and the waiter who had just pretended to be on the ground was in charge of driving.
"Indecent!" I looked at him and couldn't help but scold, "Senior brother is kind enough to save you, but you ......"
"Zhao!" Gu Shaoqing shook his head and motioned for me not to speak.
The car sped away in the night, and several times I couldn't help but ask, what did Min Jiahao want to do by hijacking us like this? But looking at the slightly tired side face of the senior brother, he couldn't ask what he wanted to say. It's okay, as long as I can be by his side, I will recognize the sword mountain and the sea of fire.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but reach out my right hand and quietly grasp his slightly cold left hand, and let the car speed on the field in the suburbs. After a while, the right hand was held by the big slender hand, and we just held it tightly.
I don't know how long later, the car was parked in an abandoned factory, and someone dragged us out of the car from the outside, took us to a vacant workshop, and locked the door from the outside.
"Senior brother, what is Min Jiahao going to do?"
I saw that there was no one in the four corners for a while, so I hurriedly asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, he probably wants a customs clearance certificate!" Gu Shaoqing covered his chest and coughed softly, and said slowly.
"Customs? Proof of customs clearance? He's smuggling goods! I exclaimed.
"Yes, do you remember his uncle Min Ye? He started his career smuggling opium. Gu Shaoqing said, helping me to sit down on a pile of dry straw.
"However, if he wants a customs clearance certificate, shouldn't he go to someone from the Ministry of Transportation? Why did I arrest you? Also, I've always been curious, how did you and Min Ye meet? Why should he have trouble with you? ”
The questions that were blocked in my heart jumped out one after another, like a patient in a hurry, waiting for the doctor to answer his questions.
The half-hooked crescent moon is desolate and faint in the clouds, flickering and darkening, as if reflecting my floating heart at this time.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Min Jiahao."
For a long time, his voice drifted gently into my eardrums as if it were coming from another world, with a low and mocking smile.
"Ah Zhao, why did you come to Jinling Hotel tonight?" Gu Shaoqing asked.
"Naturally, it's because of what is on the letterhead!"
"Because the Mochou man said that he knew who did what happened to you, right?"
I nodded.
"Did you get the answer?"
I shook my head.
At that time, Min Jiahao's identity had just been confirmed, and before he could tell Shike and He Shutong that we had been taken here by him, the haste of the change didn't have time to give me a moment of respite, thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Don't blame yourself, even if you tell Shutong and Shike, we will still fall into their trap. There is no such thing, and there is the next one waiting for you. It's just that I'm dragging you down for no reason, and I'm guilty. Gu Shaoqing said.
"Senior brother, what are you talking about?"
"This is going to start with my acquaintance with Master Min, haven't you always wanted to know?" He said, no longer looking at me, but muttering to himself as he stared at a white light on the ground reflected by the moon.
"Do you remember what he said when I first met Master Min? He and I met him in Hong Kong six years ago, but it wasn't really an acquaintance, at best. At that time, he was considered to have fled from the Forbidden City and lived in Hong Kong, far from his current power. ”
I leaned quietly against the cold limestone wall, listening to him tell about the thrilling past, like listening to a legend from the past. The moonlight shone down like water, and it was just a light white light on the concrete floor, but time seemed to have passed for a long, long time.
Min Ye was originally a eunuch in charge of the Forbidden City, and was sold into the palace during the Tongzhi period, and was originally in the side hall of Yongshou Palace to do sweeping things, and then offended people for some reason, and was sent to the Shen Penal Division to do hard labor. Ordinary people are put in the Criminal Division, and it is difficult to turn over without shedding their skin, but Min Ye is an outlier. He was left and right, sleek and sleek, and soon climbed out of the Shen Criminal Division, and was transferred to the Internal Affairs Office to be in charge, specializing in training palace maids and eunuchs who had just entered the palace.
After the Xinhai Revolution, the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell, but the deposed emperor Puyi still lived in the palace, and the Internal Affairs Office was retained. But after all, the days in the palace are not as good as in the past, and the war continues to intrude on this ancient palace, and Min Ye and other palace people are overwhelmed and flee one after another.
However, it is not easy to escape, they are people who have stayed in this prison for a lifetime, and no matter how prosperous the outside world is, it is still like a boat against the current.
Min Ye is a good hand at managing escape and arrest, his ruthlessness is well-known, and the brothers who came out with him did not want to be immersed in his dark aftermath all the time, and they were even more afraid that he would not be able to escape by secretly telling the secret, so they conspired to kill him secretly. Unexpectedly, one of them secretly informed because he was afraid that he would be killed if he didn't succeed enough, and as a result, the 16 people who escaped were all sent to Huangquan by Min Ye on a rainy night, except for the informant.
At that time, Beiping was not called Beiping, but called Beijing, which caused a sensation in Beijing that year, and the people who patrolled the house were dispatched all over the city, but finally ended due to the outbreak of war.
Gu Shaoqing was in Hong Kong six years ago, and he studied case handling for a period of time with the patrol room, and at that time, Min Ye had already achieved a little success in Hong Kong, and even had some collusion with arms dealers from various countries. Gu Shaoqing was ordered to search for a boatload of smuggled opium, but the source that was originally accurate according to the informant's intelligence was set up by the sinister and cunning Min Ye, and the informant was killed, and Gu Shaoqing was fired by the police station because of this, and then went to Japan.
"Then why did you ask you to return your favor last time we were in Xuanwu Lake?" I couldn't understand it.
Gu Shaoqing smiled, "Because, that's another matter." ”
