Chapter 56: Picking the Stars (3)

I immediately replied on her behalf: "Go, definitely go together." ”

Obviously, Gu Tingcheng is a huge waste of time because of me staying here. Only by preemptively launching an operation in front of the enemy can we control the enemy before the opportunity.

Gu Qingcheng shook his head: "No, it's not safe for you to be here, I can't go." Senior, can't you think of a way to let Brother Fei out first? ”

Theft includes unlocking and opening safes, and with the fame of picking stars, it shouldn't be difficult to open the secret lock.

Sikong Xingxing shook his head: "Little girl, it's easy to open that lock, but I can't offend the people of the 'Blue Sky and White Sun Remnant'." I swore that in this life I would only open the 'ownerless locks' and only touch ill-gotten gains. If I open this secret lock in a big way, the infamy will be renowned. Don't worry, he will be fine inside, and he will come out safely in more than ten hours. I'll take you to the anti-thief pit, Xiao Gu said, he only has this one sister, and I want to keep you safe no matter what. Okay, okay, let's go, let's go......"

The bigwigs on the rivers and lakes always "do something and don't do something" and follow all kinds of rules they have set. It is precisely because of these rules that the rivers and lakes have become colorful and mixed.

"Go ahead!" I waved resolutely.

Gu Tingcheng took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions.

Willfulness is the most likely bad thing, the situation is already so complicated, if she lets go of her emotions, she will only fail.

"Brother Fei, I'll listen to you, go to the anti-thief pit first. If you get out of trouble, come here and join me. Gu Qingcheng said calmly.

Waiting for Gu Chengcheng and Sikong Xingxing to disappear into the wind tunnel, I let out a long breath, leaned against the iron fence, and closed my eyes to recuperate.

If the fragment of the mobile phone is thrown ten steps away from the iron fence, it must be irretrievable, and it is worthless.

The painting that Sikong Xing showed was just a small episode, and I didn't take it to heart, but continued to think about what Lu Zhongguo said, including the old case of the ancestor of the Lu family and the people of the Old Alliance who assassinated the king of the Northeast.

In history, the king of the Northeast is an old man with high IQ and emotional intelligence, who started with a beard, and rose step by step in the era of warlord melee, until he sat on one side and became an upstart who was scrambled by all forces.

The three northeastern provinces are extremely rich, and the products of the large and small Xing'an Mountains can feed millions of troops, and the deep mountains and old forests can be attacked, retreated and defended, and they are not afraid of the Japanese Kwantung Army and Lao Maozi's troops at all.

A person like the King of the Northeast, with military power in hand and a flowing treasury, what will he pursue next? Of course, it is no longer money, because as long as he wants, he can run the money printing press and mint like Yuan Shikai in the past, produce it for his own use, and pass through the country.

The rich man is afraid of death, and I guess he must have come to a place like Dunhuang to pray for blessings and longevity, hoping that he would live forever and let the empire of the King of Northeast China prosper forever.

"The Heavenly Desolate Land Old Immortal Situation - that's right, that's it, what the King of the Northeast is pursuing is not the 'Golden Mountain and Silver Sea Jade Palace', but the 'Heavenly Desolate Land Old Immortal Bureau', a myth and legend that can make him immortal!" My heart lit up, and I once again figured out a historical problem.

From the perspective of a layman in the country of Lu Zhongguo, he thought that the king of the Northeast and Sun Dianying and others moved westward for the treasure of Mogao Grottoes, but his knowledge was really shallow.

It didn't last long for me to be quiet, and the air duct became lively.

Two young police officers wearing bulletproof helmets, bulletproof vests, and riot shields appeared at the end of the tunnel, followed by seven or eight plainclothes officers, all armed with guns in one hand, with bruised foreheads and tense faces.

I didn't move, or I would have been a living target under the gunfire.

"Hands up, hands up!" The two officers reached a distance of fifteen paces outside the iron cage, poked out the muzzle of a short gun from the shooting hole of their shield, and took the standard posture of kneeling to aim, as if facing a great enemy.

I slowly raised my hands over my shoulders and waited for them to get closer.

"Name? Address? Occupation? A female police officer asked sharply.

I replied loudly: "Long Fei, who now lives in the north of the city, is a mural painter of Mogao Grottoes. ”

The difference between the Jianghu people and the police is that the former is agile, streamlined, and easy to advance and retreat, while the latter is prone to attack in whole teams, acts slowly, and most of the time follows the routines in textbooks, lacking the ability to improvise.

They were so nervous when they saw a person locked in an iron cage, let alone people like the Iron Mirror King, the Immortal Jade Master, and the Sikong Star Picker.

"Open the cage and let the person out." The female officer commanded.

I don't have much hope for her orders, each iron grid is the thickness of a thumb, and ordinary hydraulic tongs can't do anything at all. In addition, Sikong Xingxing said that there are marbles hidden in the iron grid, which are integrated with the hidden lock, so it is likely that the iron grid is made of special alloy steel, and its hardness exceeds the limit of hydraulic tongs. The two are opposed, and the hydraulic clamp has the possibility of breaking the arm.

As I expected, the plainclothes personnel broke three hydraulic tongs in a row, and broke eleven saw blades, but failed to break a single iron grate.

"Please give me a bottle of water, a loaf of bread." I said to the female officer.

Her facial features are a little immature, she should have just graduated from the police academy not long ago, and she doesn't have enough experience in dealing with this complex situation.

"Bread, water, boxed lunch, hot towels...... Hurry up, the victim needs, hurry! "The female police officer was very understanding, not only solved my food and drink problems, but also brought me a hot towel in a plastic bag.

The plainclothes were tired, and as the two officers sat down, leaning against the air duct wall.

The female officer took off her bulletproof helmet and tossed aside her sweat-soaked bangs on her forehead.

"Tell me, what's going on? Who kept you here? She took the notebook out of her pocket and made notes for me.

Before entering the air tunnel, Gu Tingcheng and I both made a record with the police, and there is no need to repeat what happened last night, the key point is the killing incident I saw after climbing into the air tunnel.

I'm hiding something that everybody has said.

The words that the man in black muttered that did not match the words before and after, and the words of the woman who did not see anyone but heard the voice...... Didn't say anything. I had to keep it a moderate amount of secrecy, distance myself from the police, and take some of the key clues into my own hands.

I also concealed the plot of Sikong picking stars, he came to Dunhuang, it has nothing to do with me, whether he can be caught or not is what the police have to do, and it has nothing to do with me.

"Mr. Long, you saw the gangsters killing people, why did you chase after them instead of calling the police?" The female officer asked.

Jianghu people have their own rules of the rivers and lakes, and the white road also has the white way, and the girl who has just walked out of the school gate is too shallow to ask such a question.

I shook my head: "There was no signal on the phone, so I didn't have time to call the police." Officer, you better find more firefighters or locksmiths, I can't support it anymore! ”

"Don't worry, my master is about to arrive, and he must have a way to deal with this iron cage. Bear with him a little longer, and he's coming. The female officer said apologetically.

I couldn't bear to tease her anymore, so I lowered my head and ate a boxed lunch.

The female police officer called a few more times, and suddenly smiled: "Yes, Master, I understand, immediately let someone bring a cutting saw, okay, understand, understand!" ”

There are many ways to solve the current dilemma, and I have thought before that as long as the air ducts on both sides of the iron cage are cut off, the iron cage falls and falls in the room, and there is enough working space, you can use medium-sized machinery such as gas cutters and machine tool saws.

The reason why I didn't alert the female police officer was because I didn't want the matter to end there.

I was trapped in an iron cage, causing chaos, at least it could divert the attention of some people in the rivers and lakes, and make Gu Qingcheng and Sikong Xingxing's anti-thief pit party encounter less pressure.

After receiving the call, the female police officer immediately ordered the firefighters to cut the air duct.

Another, more experienced officer, crouched down and collected the pieces of his phone and put them in a plastic bag.

I didn't say much, it was the phone of the star. Since he can discard the fragments of his phone, of course, there are no secrets in it. If the police officer tries to recover the data on his phone, all he gets is the murderous photo.

As soon as the air duct was broken, the iron cage immediately sank, and slowly landed under the support of four firefighters.

A tall, thin old man with a sleek-yellow face sat in a swivel chair in the corner, playing with two dark and dull iron walnuts in his right hand, and looked at this side with cold eyes.

"Masterβ€”" The female officer jumped down through the gap in the duct and ran towards the old man.

"How many times have you said it, in public, don't call me Master, you have to call me Mr. Zhao." The old man frowned and reprimanded.

The female police officer smiled and nodded: "Yes, Master, I will remember next time." ”

A firefighter shouted into the walkie-talkie hanging on his shoulder: "The cage is on the ground, come up with a gas cutter and a fire blanket, there is no big problem, as long as you cut off two iron rods, the victim can get out." ”

I sat down and didn't have much hope for the fire brigade's gas cutter.

"If it's the Iron Mirror King who is locked in the cage, how will he get out? What about the Immortal Jade Master? "I can't help but compare myself side-to-side with them.

I was selfless in my heart and dared to face the police calmly.

If you change to someone else, you have too many secrets that you don't want to know, and you have a lot of scruples, so you will inevitably deliberately avoid the police, and it will not be easy to get out.

The old man stood up, walked around to the front of the cage, looked down at the secret lock, and raised his hand sharply to stop the firefighter team leader: "Don't bother, oh - let your people take care of it, I'll take care of this matter." ”

The squad leader was stunned and rolled his eyes, not intending to follow the old man's advice.

"Master, don't you use a gas cutter? Three of the hydraulic pliers were broken, and they didn't work at all. The female officer asked.

The old man frowned again: "I said, this matter is left to me, and there is no need for the fire brigade to intervene." ”

A young firefighter with unfluffy fur on his mouth shouted, "Who are you, you? How old are you? How do you get open a cage without a gas cutter? Bite your teeth or touch your head? This is our job, we only listen to the command of the squadron leader, and he orders to withdraw before we can go...... The most annoying old guy with yin and yang, come up and command this and that, you let us withdraw, you can afford to be responsible for something? ”
