Chapter 97 The Back Firm That Never Operates
Xijing and Linhai are adjacent provinces, and it only takes 40 minutes to pass the high-speed train between the two provincial capitals. That's a lot faster than typing on a keyboard before the internet. This time, Sun Jian failed to arrest the fugitive in Linhai, but he was captured by a mysterious force, and the news came quickly, causing an uproar among the Xijing police. This is not over, the Xijing Provincial Department here is also anxious, the new director has not yet taken office, and the acting director Dong Chengwei was maliciously hit in the back of the head when he investigated the case in private communication, and is currently in a deep coma...
The angry Ministry of Public Security sent a working group and also sent an inspection team, and the team leader Guo Tu even said to the media: No matter how deep the water in Xijing is, it is necessary to investigate the bottom of the situation here.
Guo Tu, who had just gotten off the plane, went to the provincial detention center and the museum without stopping, and a group of experts under his command had already arrived at the destination early to carry out the investigation work, and they targeted the secret passage behind the central position of the museum. In other words, this Guo Tu is really efficient, and when he comes to Xijing, he will be two, and the materials reported to him are already a thick stack!
Although his report was sprinkled with a lump, in simple terms, his report was only two sentences: first, the water here is really deep; Second, he Guo Tu is determined to trek through mountains and rivers to find out the truth. The working group quickly verified this strange passage, and after investigating the two cases together, the capital also praised the working group's work attitude and achievements, and Guo Tu's reputation in the ministry also rose instantly.
Zhou Tai, who had regained his consciousness in his previous life, also disappeared mysteriously, and he was once listed as a key suspect in the attack on Dong Cheng, and later, he was returned to his innocence by surveillance video. Of course, this surveillance video also has traces of destruction, and the intermittent playback does not play the role of evidence at all. The official report on the two leaders of the Xijing Provincial Department unified the tone, and the external claim was that they were on vacation
After a long time, all kinds of speculations came out, the most mysterious of which was that the two old men fell in love with a certain star in the Xijing entertainment industry at the same time.
People with ulterior motives also compiled a novella "Gunshots in Xijing" on the Internet, and the click rate has exceeded 10 million...
"Damn the network, damn the bad media!" Guo Tu slammed the public opinion analysis in his hand on the antelope's brain, roaring furiously...
"Guo Tu? It's him! When he heard this name, Yuan Shao's brows furrowed, and immediately, he fell into deep thought, he was a little hesitant, this guy who was so happy and reported the results of the battle immediately before he found out the clues was a subordinate in his previous life, and whether to contact him was something that bothered him. Press, this Guo Tu has a certain ability and connections, but there are also a lot of problems, it is a standard "double-edged sword", Yuan Shao looked at the mountains in the distance, and seemed a little worried.
"Come on, call Kang'er to me, well, and Yu Linglong, call her, it's 100,000 urgent!"
"It's... Lord! ”
During this period, after the careful care of several modern medical professors from different departments, Yuan Shao's cold physique has weakened a lot, and occasionally leaving this Panlong Mountain to go out for a walk, there will no longer be a situation of being out of breath. Moreover, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and they get in touch with Qiao Shuang again, and she regains the memory of her previous life, and she has once again become her own strength to control Zhou Yu, which makes him feel quite happy. Zhou Yu had the grace of life for him in his previous life, and the relationship between them was also very friendly, but for an unspeakable reason, Yuan Shao felt that there would be a conflict between him and Zhou Yu sooner or later, so it was better to take precautions.
"I'm sorry, Gong Jin, although we are a nominal alliance, the irreconcilable factors have always been there, so I'm really sorry!" Yuan Shao drank all the conditioning herbs in front of him, and the bitter taste suddenly gushed out, rushing straight to his stomach, and he said to himself.
The autumn qi is unpredictable, and the sun is still scorching, at this time, it suddenly rains outside, and this kind of qi with a huge temperature difference is like purgatory for Yuan Shaolai. The thing that bothers him the most at the moment is the disappearance of Ma Jun, who used all his strength, and even did not hesitate to dig a tunnel between the detention center and Panlong Mountain to arch his escape, became a white-eyed wolf who ran away. However, according to the feedback from Yu Linglong's investigation, it seems that this Ma Jun did not intend to get out of his control, but encountered a mysterious force, which he couldn't resist, so he had to go from it... His mood calmed down again.
This Ma Jun was the greatest craftsman in his previous life, and he was also the guardian of the empty time in his previous life in Soochow, he knew too many secrets and shouldered too many responsibilities, which was really not to be missed.
At the suggestion of Yuan Shao, Yuan Kang intervened early in the investigation of this mysterious force, and all the evidence showed that all this had a great deal to do with the back trading house in Linhai City.
"What, Kang'er! There's something weird in your trading house! ”
"Yes, Ancestor. The firm was nominally an antiques auction house, but according to the information I investigated, it was open for several years and almost never opened to the public. There have only been two antique auctions in the past few years, and this is all they have on display. Yuan Kang respectfully handed the promotional album in his hand to Yuan Shao and continued: "These antiques have one thing in common, that is, most of them are from 25-220 AD. That is, the so-called Eastern Han Dynasty period in history, which was when the ancestors conquered the Quartet. ”
Yuan Kang glanced at the graceful jade Linglong, and sighed faintly: "We have acquired two of these items, and after expert identification, this is indeed the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the strange thing is that these so-called antiques have no traces unearthed underneath, and even one of them is still a "square" product!" ”
"Imitations?"
"Fangpin is not an imitation! The so-called square products are objects and utensils that have not yet been opened. ”
"What?" When Yuan Shao heard this, he was shocked.
"Ancestor, one thing is very certain is that this mysterious force does not belong to the modern era, it is likely to be from the same era as you, and these people are not willing to be plain, this abduction of Ma Jun is a proof of their ulterior motives..."
"Linglong, Ma Jun is an important person in our plan, this person cannot afford to be lost, you have left Zhou Yu for the time being recently, and fully cooperate with Kang Er to find out the ownership of this mysterious power, the most critical point is that Ma Jun must be rescued." Yuan Shao's expression was a little embarrassed, but he gave the order without question.
Yu Linglong hesitated for a moment, then didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
However, Yuan Kang was a little overjoyed, he didn't know where to put his hand when the pestle was there! After Yuan Shao left, he said to Yu Linglong excitedly: "Linglong, there are eyes, and you have been sent back to me." ”
Yu Linglong smiled faintly and said, "Childe! Linglong just cooperated with Gongzi to find out the clues of the back firm, and the rest of the things, let's talk about it later! She didn't say it to death, not because she was in awe of Yuan Shao, or because she had nostalgia for Yuan Kang, her heart was completely tied to Zhou Yu, and her response at the moment was somewhat empty and wronged. Another point, women's instinctive intuition made her feel that this mysterious business house hurt Zhou Yu far more than Yuan Shao, and she had to find out about it both public and private.
Without further ado, Yuan Kang and the others soon disappeared into the night when it began to rain again. They couldn't stay long, either. Although it has already been brought into its sight, who dares to guarantee that mysterious force will not disappear in the sky!
The back of the commercial bank in Xijing in the middle of the mountain area of a bend, it is quite convenient to find, there is a big road sign at the intersection of the commercial bank, the scenery of this half of the mountain is very beautiful, there are layers of forests on both sides, it has just rained, the humidity of the air is very sufficient, Yuan Kang's mood is also very good, can partner with the goddess in his heart, how difficult the task has a hint of excitement. He even felt like his steps were much lighter than usual.
The two of them observed the antique dealer from a distance for a while, and felt that something was wrong. It stands to reason that this is not an absolute downtown area, but it is impossible to be so quiet! It's eerily quiet! After they glanced at each other, they quickened their pace to the back of the firm.
When they arrived at their destination, they found that the bronze gate of the merchant house was locked, and even a thin spider web was formed on it.
No, when I came here the other day, there was still a lot of traffic. Yuan Kangfang, who felt a little weird, was about to kick the door, Yu Linglong gently pushed him away, she didn't know when there was a short sword in her hand, the short sword swung forward quickly, and it was inserted into the crack of the door accurately, "Wow" was very crisp, and the copper lock behind the door fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Pushing open the bronze door, there was almost nothing in it, only a few simple wooden chairs and stools.
There were no switches on the wall next to it, but there were a few empty trays with a faint scent of candles in the trays.
Seeing this, Yuan Kang hurriedly said: "Linglong, it seems that we have startled the snake." ”
"Not necessarily!" Yu Linglong walked around for a week, her eyes staring at the gossip pattern on the wall of the trading house in a daze, at this moment, the pattern was actually moving, and even spinning faster and faster.
"There's a mystery here." Yuan Kang's eyelids jumped wildly, but he didn't dare to destroy Yu Linglong's thinking conception, he had a trace of fear of her from his heart, I don't know if this fear came from liking, but Yuan Kang knew its existence deeply. Obviously, this Yu Linglong, who is the true inheritance of Yuan Shao, is not a good stubble, this delicate-looking woman casually kills the Rao Master, if she doesn't do it well, maybe she can also become her target, choose one between the task and herself, her choice must be the former.
The light of this trading house is a little dim, the candles are burned out, and there are lighting equipment such as night pearls inside. At this moment, it was also taken away, and the situation here is very reminiscent of those headless ghost films, and if Yuan Kang is bold, he can't help but shudder...
"Don't be afraid, Childe, you retreat and let me open this secret door." With that, Yu Linglong raised the short sword in her hand.
"Secret door? Yuan Kang looked at the beauty in front of him a little dazedly, and subconsciously took a few steps back...
