The whole hall is about 150 square meters, the whole hall is magnificent, the roof is a traditional European-style dome, and there is an ornate tin and aluminum chandelier hanging on it, and the surrounding walls are painted with murals - in Schulz's words, created by Franz Marke, the master of the German "Blue Knight" art troupe.

Geng Chaozhong looked at these murals and asked Huang Zheng:

"Brother Huang, do you know what the section chief wants?"

"A box with some bonds in it."

A smile appeared on Huang Zheng's face.

Oh?

It seems that Liu Yiban really told Huang Zheng the news, and the relationship between Huang Zheng and Liu Yiban is not ordinary!

Geng Chaozhong looked at everything in the hall quietly, and asked Huang Zheng:

"I take the liberty of asking, I don't know what the relationship between Brother Huang and Section Chief Liu is?"

Huang Zheng smiled and didn't speak, as if he was considering whether to tell Geng Chaozhong.

After a while, Huang Zheng spoke:

"Section Chief Liu is my brother-in-law."

Geng Chaozhong was stunned for a moment, it turned out to be Liu Yiban's brother-in-law, no wonder!

"Captain Geng, what can you hide in such a room where you can see the head at a glance?"

Huang Zheng asked Geng Chaozhong while rummaging through the boxes and cabinets.

Indeed, although the hall is very large, there are not many places to hide things, except for the conference table in the middle, which is a few small cupboards, and the rest of the place is basically unobstructed.

Geng Chaozhong did not speak, but instead looked up at the circular dome that resembled a church.

"Something hidden on top of the chandelier?"

Huang Zheng raised his head and looked up like Geng Chaozhong.

"If it's hidden on top of the chandelier, we can see it completely, and besides, how high can the priest climb?"

Geng Chaozhong changed his angle as he spoke, and carefully observed this large chandelier that was five meters high from the ground - this chandelier was similar to the petal-shaped chandelier of later generations, but the material was made of tin, aluminum and other metals, which was beautiful and artistic.

It's just that it's hard to hide.

"Could it be in the tiles?"

Huang Zheng saw that Geng Chaozhong did not speak, and began to talk to himself, and then began to lie on the ground and observe carefully, and after checking for more than ten minutes, he did not find any suspicious signs.

Geng Chaozhong also lowered his head and looked around the wall for a hidden grid, but also found nothing.

Was it really burned?

Geng Chaozhong frowned.

"Brother Geng, you said that this bond is also a thick stack, and it shouldn't be too small in the box, where can it be hidden?" Huang Zheng also frowned.

"Brother Huang, I don't know if you brought any grenades or explosives or something?"

Geng Chaozhong did not answer Huang Zheng's question, but asked rhetorically.

"I brought it, but there were very few, and it was estimated that it would only blow up a small hole." Huang Zheng replied.

"It doesn't matter, just blow up this big table in the middle of the chamber."

Huang Zheng glanced at this big table more than ten meters long and three or five meters wide in surprise, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and immediately lowered his body and got under the table.

Geng Chaozhong had a smile on his face, but he didn't make a sound, and circled the entire conference hall again.

After a while, Huang Zheng crawled out from under the table with a disgraced face and said dejectedly:

"No, it's empty down there."

"Oh," Geng Chaozhong nodded, "I didn't say it was down there!" You see that this table is so new, and it is carved with Japanese ladies on it, and it looks like a Japanese thing, how can it be that the 1914 bond is hidden? ”

"And you're going to let me climb in and find it?" Huang Zheng wiped his face and said angrily.

"I mean, since we say there is a bomb, then there must be a bomb, or Director Wang asks, what should we do?"

Huang Zheng was stunned, glared at Geng Chaozhong with annoyance, and said angrily:

"Captain Geng, have you taken the things explained by the section chief to heart?!"

Geng Chaozhong shook his head and began to walk out.

Huang Zheng was furious and was about to scold, when Geng Chaozhong's voice came:

"Don't look for it, it's not here."

Huang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking:

"Why?"

"Although the frescoes were worn, they were not touched, and the dome was blown through by shells, and the table was burned to the ground, so the Japanese rebuilt the dome and replaced it with a new table. There is certainly no possibility of hiding anything in these places, so only the surrounding walls and floor tiles remain, but as you have just seen, there is no secret space, which only means that the thing is not here, or that it has been burned by fire. ”

Huang Zheng's face wanted to cry without tears, and he said with a sad face:

"Then we're going back like this?"

"Of course not, the thing hasn't been found yet, how dare I go back, Brother Huang is the section chief's brother-in-law, I'm not, you're not afraid of me!"

Geng Chaozhong walked to the door as he spoke, and began to look at the entrance gate with two panels.

This is a traditional European-style oak door, brown paint, the deadbolt of the board, although a little faded, but still well preserved, the closure of the two doors is covered with brass strips, meticulous workmanship, but, perennial closing, the copper strips have been polished shiny.

"How can such a big box be hidden in the door?"

Huang Zheng looked at Geng Chaozhong like a fool.

"Who says bonds have to be hidden in boxes? It's just a stack of papers, where can I put it?! ”

Geng Chaozhong replied angrily, narrowed his eyes, and stared at the copper bar carefully.

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the copper bar at the bottom of a large door—it seemed to have some signs of prying!

Could it be here?

Geng Chaozhong stretched out his hands and slammed the door open, and the noon sunlight in the corridor shone directly into the conference hall, shaking people's eyes so much that they couldn't open their eyes!

"Bring the tools!"

Geng Chaozhong shouted in a low voice, his voice trembling slightly.

Huang Zheng's eyes lit up, and he quickly took out a change cone from the backpack he was carrying.

Geng Chaozhong took the change cone, squatted on the ground, and pulled it out little by little along the brass bar, the copper bar was pried open little by little, and Geng Chaozhong slowly stood upright.

Syllable!

The bottom half of the copper bar was bounced open at once!

Stuffed inside was a row of white scraps of wood.

Huang Zheng leaned his head to look at it, shook his head and sighed:

"Hey, Russian white pine, German man-made wooden doors like to stuff this thing, my family has a timber business here, and often imports this kind of wood."

Geng Chaozhong stared closely at the clump of broken wood chips, poked out the cone and dug hard, pieces of broken wood and broken wood chips were pulled out and fell to the ground, suddenly, the cone seemed to have touched something soft, Geng Chaozhong threw down the cone and began to dig by hand.

"Found it?!"

Huang Zheng asked nervously.

Geng Chaozhong didn't speak, his hand was always stretched out and groped inside, and his mouth said:

"I felt like I had touched something. Brother Huang, if you let these brothers go farther, you must not let others come over! ”

Huang Zheng nodded understandingly, stood up and walked a few steps outside, and ordered the two brothers standing at the door to walk outside.

At the moment when Huang Zheng got up, Geng Chaozhong jerked out of the wooden door plywood, and a black thing was pulled out.

It's actually a bicycle tire!

Geng Chaozhong tore open the inner tube of the tire, and there was a bundle of cardboard rolls wrapped inside!

Geng Chaozhong stuffed the cardboard roll into the foam space, and then took out a stack of paper rolls and stuffed them into the tires!

At this moment, Huang Zheng also turned his head and saw the thing in Geng Chaozhong's hand, snatched it with his hand, tore the tire a few times, took out the paper roll inside, unfolded it, and the whole person jumped up, and shouted in his mouth:

"Captain Geng, you have made a meritorious service!"
