125. The Matter Came By

The Countess's gaze was deep, and she seemed to pull the memory far, far away......

"My name is Natasha, my father is Baron Yuriev of Tsarist Russia, after the February Revolution my father began to live in exile, when I was a little girl of five years old, Vasily and Anna were the children of the housekeeper Nikolai, they were brothers and sisters, they were servants of our family, I grew up with Vasily, we loved each other very much, but my father insisted that I marry Count Andrei, so I separated from Vasily, I ended up marrying Andrei, and Anna became my personal maid.

In fact, after the October Revolution, the life of the aristocracy was not as good as before, most of the nobles were fleeing, and the situation of Andrei's family was not as solid as my father imagined, and soon after the marriage, Andrei took me to Shanghai, bought a small house at No. 8 Anhesi Road, and since then I have settled in Shanghai.

And Vasily later went to join the army, participated in several battles, and was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel for his bravery, and later was wounded in a battle, and after recovering from his wounds, he was sent to the Soviet embassy in Britain, and now serves as a military attachΓ© at the embassy. In fact, my contact with Vasily has been intermittent over the years.

More than half a year ago, Andrei met Dr. Maxim in the casino, Maxim is a doctor of mineral resources from Moscow University, has discovered a lot of mineral resources, when Maxim lost all his belongings, he told Andrei that he has a treasure map, a large gold mine in Northeast China, as long as Andrei helps pay off his gambling debts, he will give him this treasure map.

Andrei was skeptical at first, but Maxim showed Andrei his research report and mining samples, and Andrei believed that this was true, so he tried to raise money, took all the family's savings, and even borrowed usury from Liu Ye to pay off the gambling debts for Maxim, Maxim gave the treasure map to Andrei, but soon, this Maxim died in a car accident.

After that, Andrei found that someone was staring at him all the time, and he felt that his personal safety was threatened, so he specially invited Ivanov from Moscow to be his bodyguard. He knew that these people must have come for the treasure map, so he tried to hide it.

Later, by chance I met Heinz, he introduced Andrei to Professor Sergei, Andrei bought a fake from Sergei, that is, Monet's "Water Lilies", and accidentally learned that Sergei was also good at tattoos, so he thought of tattooing the treasure map on Anna's body, because Anna is a maid, usually not noticeable, so Andrei took Anna to Sergei's cottage, tattooed the treasure pattern on Anna's back in the basement, and then destroyed the original picture.

Andrei gave Sergei a sum of money, but Sergei was not satisfied, the lion opened his mouth, otherwise he threatened Andrei to tell the secret, Andrei felt that Sergei was unreliable and wanted to get rid of him. So the next day he asked him to go fishing, saying that he would give him another sum of money, Sergei believed it and followed him to the river to fish, but he was knocked unconscious by Andrei and thrown into the river, and Sergei died.

Andrei was worried that Anna would reveal the secret, so he quietly poisoned Anna with poison, and Andrei was also suspicious of me, he knew that I was disconnected from Vasily, so he also wanted to get rid of me, I was scared, really scared, so I quietly asked for ricin from Tanaka and put it in Andrei's coffee, and Andrei finally died at my hands.

Tanaka knew that I had poisoned Andrei, so he often used it to threaten me and force me to tell the secret of the treasure map. Then I made a fake drawing and had Anna embroider it on several silk handkerchiefs to confuse those who wanted to get their hands on the treasure map. I now know that Tanaka was originally from the Japanese Sakura Agency, and he may have known the secret of the treasure map for a long time, otherwise Mr. Kono, the personal doctor introduced to me by Heinz, would not suddenly return to China and let this so-called apprentice of his take him over as his personal doctor.

I contacted Vasily and asked him to find a buyer as soon as possible, sell him the treasure map, and then Anna and I could go to London to join him. Unexpectedly, the tycoon Samuel he contacted was detained by agents of the US Army Intelligence in the United States, and told the Americans all the contact information that Vasily told him and me, and the Army Intelligence asked Smith to impersonate him.

Smith this bastard, at first I thought he was a friend of Heinz and just a businessman, but in fact he was also an American agent in his bones, he approached me and was very courteous to me, in fact, the purpose was also for the treasure map, he tricked me and Anna to meet him at the Park Hotel, trying to force me to hand over the treasure map, and at the Park Hotel he finally tore off his disguise and revealed his true form. He was just one step away from succeeding, but thankfully you arrived in time to save Anna and me.

In any case, when Anna and I were in danger twice, it was you who saved us from the danger. For that part, I still want to thank you. Alas, I didn't expect that the clever plan we worked so hard to plan turned out to be a bamboo basket for water. β€œ

The Countess made no secret of the treasure map's secrets.

"Countess, you don't have to be so pessimistic." Ling Yunpeng said in a gentle tone: "Didn't I say just now, there is a saying in China that if you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry." That is, in one place, there is a loss, and in another, there is a gain. The treasure map may be missing you, but you can spend the rest of your life with your beloved, and Anna can be reunited with her brother, and reliving the brotherhood is also a blessing, don't you know? β€œ

"Do you have a way to get Anna and me out of Shanghai?" The Countess seemed to rekindle her hope and looked at Ling Yunpeng with joy.

Ling Yunpeng nodded: "I'll figure it out." β€œ

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news." The Countess is still very confident in Ling Yunpeng's ability and personality.

"Okay, it's half past seven now, everyone is hungry, drama idiot, Ah Hui, go out and buy something to eat."

Fu Xinghan and Ah Hui were ordered to hurry outside to buy some food. It didn't take long to bring back some Chinese and Western food.

After they had eaten their supper, they went back to their rooms to rest.

"Here, this one is rubbed a little on the bruises before going to bed, this pill is taken internally." Qin Shouyi saw that Ling Yunpeng and Fu Xinghan had a lot of bruises on their faces, hands, and bodies, and hurriedly went back to the house and stuffed the golden sore cream, stasis medicine, anti-inflammatory pills and other medicines that his eldest brother gave him into Ling Yunpeng's hands.

Ling Yunpeng handed the box of stasis medicine to Fu Xinghan: "Idiot, take it and apply it to your face, and tomorrow you will still look like a crown of jade." ”

"It's so amazing? Then I'll have to try. Fu Xinghan had a bruise on his left cheek, and when he heard Ling Yunpeng say this, he hurriedly took the stasis medicine, opened the medicine box, picked out a little and wiped it on his cheek, and muttered while wiping it: "That yellow-haired stupid big guy almost broke my appearance." ”

"I still have something to do, go out first, and I'll leave it to you here." Ling Yunpeng took two anti-inflammatory pills, and then explained a few words to Fu Xinghan: "Be sure to watch the Countess and Anna, don't let them have any accidents." ”

"Don't worry, boss."

Ling Yunpeng nodded, and then went out.
