Episode 36 Mystery

Xiang Xiaoqiang sat in the car, looking through the traffic on the street, and sure enough, at the entrance of the park, the tables were still there, and under the parasols, they were still the same people from three years ago - or rather, the same people from three days ago.

He paid and slipped out of the car quietly, squinting his eyes as he tried to gauge the people in the stall opposite.

It doesn't seem like there is Li Guanniao, but there is the girl who was with him last time, what is it called? Oh yes, Fifi. It was the girl who threw herself into the Yangtze River with Li Guanniao.

…… These two ***.

Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at his watch, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon. It's been more than an hour since I returned to this space, and half a month has passed over there. Xiang Xiaoqiang's heart was like a knife, but reason told him not to rush, so it was useless to go through the past. The director of the bureau must not have passed so quickly, because Li Guanniao said that it is likely that he will be gone for ten days and half a month, or even a month or two, so the director must at least arrange the affairs in the bureau, and it is impossible to connect so tightly.

Thinking like this, he settled down a little, and when he looked up, there was a tea house on the side of the road, with a large glass window that had fallen to the ground, so he raised his foot and went in.

Xiang Xiaoqiang sat down at a table by the window, asked for a cup of tea and a plate of melon seeds, and began to observe through the glass.

Li Guanniao never appeared, and there were always three people in the stall, one woman and two men. It seems that business is still not good, Fei Fei lowered her head to play with her mobile phone, and the two boys leaned back in their chairs, chatting without saying a word, looking at passers-by.

Well, it seems that at that time, Li Guanniao said that they were sent to open up the market, because they have no business in this time and space. Three years ago – or three days ago their business was cold, then it's normal, three days later it's still cold. The market doesn't open so quickly.

- No matter how powerful an enemy is, there are weaknesses. In general, what a person desperately wants is his weakness. Xiang Xiaoqiang has been a big spy leader for more than three years, and he can be said to have a deep understanding of this.

Now, the biggest weakness of these people who hold the power to control time is that they are eager to open up the tourism market in this time and space.

But where did Li Guanniao go? didn't see him, Xiang Xiaoqiang always had no bottom in his heart. He knew that these people were the "business pioneers" sent by the Time Travel Agency, and they could be said to be an office. And in this office, the most powerful is Li Guanniao. Xiang Xiaoqiang still remembers the title on his business card: Time and Space Travel Agency got the few small shrimps next to him in the first half of the 21st century, and I am afraid that Li Guanniao will not be fooled.

……

At this time, Xiang Xiaoqiang found that there was a situation over there. He immediately stared intently at that side, his eyes wide open.

On the other side of the road, two people wearing red hoops, who seemed to be managers of "relevant departments", slipped over here, saw the stall, and walked straight over. It is estimated that the "management fee" was not paid. However, this kind of "time and space travel agency" is "clearly deceptive" in the eyes of the world, and which relevant department will "manage" them?

yes...... Xiang Xiaoqiang thought of this, and suddenly became very interested, this stall must have been here for some days, how did they deal with these "relevant departments"?

Sure enough, Fei Fei over there saw the two managers passing by, yawned, and turned her face to call the two boys next to her. Reluctantly, the two boys stood up, stretched, and pulled out from under the table two trolleys resembling train station luggage trolleys.

Xiang Xiaoqiang's curiosity: Huh? What are you going to do?

He watched Fei Fei turn his watch, then slam his wrist on the table, and in an instant, the two managers disappeared out of thin air!!

Xiang Xiaoqiang was stunned: Damn, it's a big change!

…… However, when he looked closely, Fei Fei and the two boys were not staying where they were, but standing there talking. - This is also what happened in an instant, and Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't even see how they stood up.

After a while, Xiang Xiaoqiang slowly understood.

He remembered what Li Guanniao said to himself in the time and space of the Ming Dynasty:

"Your men locked me in for an afternoon, and then you came to see me, and the moment I opened the door, I stopped time, and then I came out, and you were all still there like puppets, and I didn't just take the key and open the door and leave. Then I'll let time run again, and it's like nothing happened to you. The only difference is that I, the big living person in the cell, has disappeared. ”

It's very simple, and it's the same thing now, Fei Fei first let the time stop, and then let the two boys use a small cart to move the two managers away, and then let the time run. For others, this period of time in between is equivalent to being "cut out", as if it is a change that occurs in an instant.

He could clearly see that Fei Fei tapped on his wrist, as if it was the watch he had knocked on. He also remembered that the last moment he remembered in that Ming time and space was when Li Guanniao knocked on his wrist. - The common denominator is a knock on the wrist, and it is likely that the watch they are wearing is a "remote control".

Also, since Fei Fei asked the two boys to use the cart to get people away, then the two boys must not be within the scope of "being stopped", otherwise if they are all frozen, who will push the two carts. But why was he "stopped", but the two boys from the time travel agency were not "stopped"?

One most likely explanation is that the two boys also wore that kind of watch that controlled time! Only those who wear that kind of watch are not affected by the stopping of time!

……

However, this is just Xiang Xiaoqiang's speculation. In order to confirm this speculation, Xiang Xiaoqiang got up to pay the bill, and then went out of the tea house. He walked briskly across a street, came to another block more than 100 meters away, found a public phone at a newspaper stand, and called 110, saying that at the gate of the park, someone had set up a stall to cheat, and he had already deceived many people, so you should hurry up and arrest him.

Then he put down the phone and ran back to the opposite side of the park, hiding in the crowd and waiting to see.

After a while, the sirens sounded from far and near, and a police car stopped on the side of the road, and two policemen got out of the car, said something to the walkie-talkie, and then walked quickly towards the stall at the entrance of the park.

The poor two boys from the time travel agency had just "moved" back, and before they could sit down to drink saliva, they saw a new trouble again. Xiang Xiaoqiang's eyes widened and stared, only to see one of the boys shaking his head and complaining, and then tapping his wrist.

Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the two policemen disappeared along with the police car, and the three of them were still sitting behind their desks reading the newspaper.

This is confirmed to Xiaoqiang.

Having made up his mind, he took a deep breath and strode towards the stall across the street.
