It seems that Bill's identity as a lawyer is not just Wolfe's legal adviser. Could it be that there really is some force secretly controlling different local demon cultivation organizations, or that if the demon cultivators here are discovered, they will often be controlled by some kind of force?

Xiao Shao said: "According to Fox's confession, that Bill lawyer has also seen Wolfe's staff and is very interested in acquiring it, which shows that he knows what it is, and not only treats it as an ordinary antique. And the ancient picture we got is likely to have been seen or even copied by others, and it should be related to Bill even if it is not Bill himself. ”

Tao Zongheng asked rhetorically: "But Fox also explained, Wolf never showed that picture to people, and it has always been hidden in the secret room, who can see it?" ”

Xiao Shao replied: "Some things are actually very simple if you figure out the cause and effect. That secret room was definitely not built by Wolfe's wolf demon by his own ability, and the magic circle at the entrance must have been done by a master who was proficient in space magic. The person who could enter the chamber and make a copy of the map without being noticed by Wolf was the one who helped him build it. Wolf got the staff, and there was an ancient picture in the staff, and since Fawkes knew about it, others might have heard about it. ”

Tao Zongheng patted his head and said, "Yes, Miss Xiao Shao is really smart!" ”

Xiao Shao said modestly: "It's not smart, it's just a matter of reason." In the painting, I have seen too many of the thousand-year-old world events in Gusu. ”

Cheng Tianle smiled and said: "My family Xiaoshao has a heart of ice and snow. …… In this way, there should be another force that has found the clue of Gutu. Even I was curious to see what was buried there. ”

Tao Zongheng frowned and said, "I also want to go in and see where I can find something, but now it is difficult, because someone has already started first." The construction site does not stop working day and night, there are always so many workers active, and there are a few demon cultivators who take turns to patrol, and outsiders can't get in at all. Even if Miss Xiaoshao and Mr. Cheng have great magical powers, they can sneak into it without alarming anyone. But if there is something buried there, it is not easy to excavate. If you want to go and have a look, you have to find a way to put them off work temporarily. ”

Shen Sibao suddenly said: "Brother Tao, I have been watching the excitement with you for the past few days, and I have somewhat learned about the Yangmen Road here, in fact, the methods used in the rivers and lakes are the same there, and it is not difficult for them to stop work." As long as something happens. "This Jianghu warlock-turned-wind gate master has raised a Jianyì, and he doesn't need to use any supernatural power.

Tao Zongheng groaned: "Sibao, this is not a country, don't look at the demonstrations and protests are very lively, but if someone really rushes into the construction site to make trouble, the police will not get used to it." Take it away when it's time to take it, and shoot it even when it's time to shoot. ”

Shen Sibao: "So you have to let the workers on the construction site come out and do it, and then you have to have an explanation." I don't want the residents here to get hurt, Brother Tao, you can do it yourself. If the TV station doesn't come, then we will prepare the cameras and shoot them ourselves, and it will not be difficult to force them to stop work. ”

Tao Zongheng thought about it again and said, "It's not enough to just do this. It's nothing more than creating a point of dispute to stop them for a few days. But after all, I am still the chairman of the owners' committee here, and I can't just focus on finding treasures, but also need to go through the official process to solve the problems of the community. ”

Shen Sibao said with a smile: "Taking the official procedure is also a means of the rivers and lakes, if you can't get some compensation for the residents in this area, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?" ”

Tao Zongheng patted Shen Sibao on the shoulder and said, "Sibao, how come I didn't know that you were so cunning before?" ”

Cheng Tianle smiled on the side: "This is not cunning, people are in the rivers and lakes." You should be aware of what the people you meet are doing. ”

……

The next day, something happened on the construction site, and the protests inexplicably escalated. An owner who was close to the construction platform stretched a banner-like banner from his balcony to the construction site, affecting the safety of the construction. A burly man walked out of the construction site to stop him and warn the owner that he was responsible for affecting the construction. The owner flinched, but Tao Zongheng appeared. Stand outside the fence and shout a harsh shout.

The other party is just a worker, and he will also make a stupid mistake, rushing forward with a steel bar chainsaw and starting to saw the steel bar. Attempted to expel Tao Zongheng with a cacophony of noise. Tao Zongheng didn't move, and the sparks fell on him, which was an act of violating personal safety, and was recorded by the prepared camera.

So Tao Zongheng took the prepared protest and petition, led a group of people to leave the construction site and rushed to the city government, to the mayor's office in Burnaby. The mayor's office here is open to the citizens, but the mayor basically does not work in this office, and a special assistant receives the citizens.

The mayor's assistant probably knew about the incident for a long time, and after listening to the situation, he replied in English: "I'm very sorry, but the engineering company has a legal license and they have a reason to do their job." ”

Tao Zongheng also expected this answer a long time ago, and took out materials to ask for confirmation of two things: first, what is the content of the work of the government-licensed engineering company; Second, whether the government should investigate the infringement of residents' personal safety by construction work.

The mayor's assistant took the materials with a smile and asked Tao Zongheng to go back and wait for the news, saying that he would verify the situation. At this time, Tao Zongheng took out a copy of the same material as the one just now, and asked this person to confirm and sign that he had received the material. The mayor's assistant's face suddenly became nervous, and he immediately explained that the matter belonged to the engineering and construction department of the municipal government, and the mayor's office could not solve it now.

Tao Zongheng replied: "I just need a record, and you signed this document today on behalf of the mayor's office." ”

At this time, Shen Sibao held his breath and quietly said to Tao Zongheng: "Looking at this person's reaction, there is definitely a problem!" Check all the permission documents for that project now, there must be something else that has not been discovered. ”

Last time, Ms. Chen Mimei, a candidate for parliament, had already come to see the construction permit on behalf of the residents of the constituency, and the official response to various complaints was that the construction party had legal permits, but Tao Zongheng insisted on reading the construction permit again, and in the afternoon he finally saw the dossier, a thick pile.

When Tao Zongheng looked through it, he was suddenly attracted by the inconspicuous English abbreviation "intlrenoonly" at the end of the license, and repeatedly asked what it meant. The city officials finally replied helplessly: "itmeansinternalrenovationonly". (Translation: Interior decoration only.) ）

This was an unexpected result that he didn't expect before he came, Tao Zongheng immediately asked: "So is the current construction an interior decoration?" ”

The official at the reception replied: "It depends on how the drawings are approved, you know, the construction project is very complicated." ”

Tao Zongheng took out a copy of the information he had signed just now and said: "There are photos of the construction site on this, does it mean that you have confirmed that the roof needs to be removed for internal decoration?" ”

Things came to this point, and it finally became clear that the so-called construction permit was problematic. The construction site was suspended, and Tao Zongheng gathered the owners to bite and hold on, and planned to pursue compensation.

……

The next night, a few people sat at home talking about the incident, and the machine was no longer roaring a block away, and the workers had already evacuated the construction site, leaving only a few lights on the periphery and a few people on duty.

Shen Sibao said with a smile: "Unintentionally inserted willows and willows!" Originally, they wanted to create some conflicts to stop their work temporarily, but they didn't expect Tao Daoyou to notice a short English abbreviation, which made them have to stop work. ”

Tao Zongheng shook his head and sighed: "The foreign yamen here does things, and what they pay attention to is actually the set of rules of the litigants and chaebols. The other party will definitely not give up, because they have found that they cannot achieve their goal by not demolishing the house, and they have their own way to get a new construction permit, but the procedures are more troublesome and more costly. But before that they have to stop working, and they will symbolically talk about the legal responsibilities of some time ago.

Cheng Tianle smiled: "That's the matter of you, the chairman of the owners' committee, and it has nothing to do with the treasure." Without further ado, we'll be there tonight. ”

……

A movie theater, dozens of businesses, a hotel, such a large area of the construction site, of course only five workers could not be inspected, and this piece of messy ruins did not need to be inspected, Cheng Tianle and others quietly infiltrated without much effort. The exterior walls of the buildings on the periphery of the site have largely remained, and a part of the interior has been completely demolished, and a deep pit about the size of two basketball courts has been dug. There are also a lot of bowl-sized caverns nearby, and the soil and rock samples from the ground have been taken out with a pile driver, apparently exploring something.

In the darkness, there were two dog demons sitting quietly in the deep pit, and if they didn't pay attention, they wouldn't have noticed it, they were obviously guarding something in secret. But so far, nothing has been found on this construction site, and even the ordinary workers involved in the construction do not understand what they are doing.

Those two dog demons didn't cause any trouble to Cheng Tianle and the others, they sat there and fainted inexplicably, obviously falling for Cheng Tianle's plot. A few people walked around the construction site, but they didn't find any treasures or traces of secret rooms.

Shen Sibao frowned and said: "It's really not easy to find, no wonder those people haven't found anything for so many days, and finally began to demolish the house and excavate a large area." ”

Tao Zongheng: "Of course they can't do construction in the name of digging treasures, there are a few demon cultivators on the construction site, they may be paying attention to the abnormal situation, and if there is any special discovery, they will report it immediately, and then there will be masters to continue to excavate, and then they will not let other workers know." ”

Shen Sibao: "Then what if they can't find the treasure?" ”

Tao Zongheng: "That's okay, the demolition and reconstruction of this commercial area is not a loss, it is still profitable, but the project will not be as neat as it is today." ”

Shen Sibao: "I can be regarded as having seen a foreign demolition now!" …… Miss Shao, please open your sense and search carefully, if you have a keen sense, we can't catch up with you. This piece has been investigated, and there is no one else, so you can use your sensing powers. ”
