Chapter 10: Camp at the bottom of the mountain

He Chenxue's appearance on this side also made Yuan Zhenba understand that his observations along the way were correctβ€”there was a special connection between Fan Meng and the He sisters, and it was this connection that turned into two invisible hands that dragged the sisters to his side.

At this time, for Yuan Zhenba, he felt that being with Fan Meng had a great impact on the following things. If Xu You is still there, maybe they can still take the lead, but unfortunately Xu You has already taken a step ahead, and Fan Meng has two oil bottles, which can not play any other role except to increase the burden and slow down the speed.

Yuan Zhenba squatted on the edge of the rock and watched: "How to go now?" Fan Meng, tell me about the situation. ”

Fan Meng glanced at the torture technique, and vaguely saw that they had set off in batches, so he smiled and said, "Actually, I haven't gone down at all, only to the position where we are stepping on now." ”

Yuan Zhenba got up and approached Fan Meng, He Yuejia and He Chenxue immediately surrounded Fan Meng, He Yuejia asked: "Yuan Zhenba, what do you want to do?" ”

Yuan Zhenba stopped, shook his head and said, "Fan Meng, it turns out that you said that you were just bragging?" And you still have to rely on two women to protect you? ”

Fan Meng raised his hand and motioned to He Yuejia to get out of the way, stepped forward, opened the waist bag he was carrying, and took out a stack of folded thick paper that I don't know what it was: "But I have here the map left by Xing Renju back then, although it is a copied version, it is exactly the same as the original map." ”

Yuan Zhenba didn't reach out to take the picture: "This picture was given to Sheng Feng, the master of Heyumen, back then, and the most fundamental reason why I want to send it out is that that picture is a trap!" ”

"Trap?" Fan Meng smiled and shook the map in his hand, "You judge this because the people who went down back then, except for your ancestor Liu Dongyun, are all dead, right?" ”

Yuan Zhen said: "My ancestor is just a doctor, a person who basically has no skills, and he is not very flexible. And in the team that went to Jiacuo Fort, except for him, everyone else can be regarded as having unique skills, and there is also a person who went down to Jiacuo Fort with Xing Renju not long ago, but in the end, only my master came back alive, the reason is very simple, because he didn't believe in that picture at all, and his cowardice and caution allowed him to save his life. ”

Fan Meng frowned: "Then I don't understand, since he doesn't believe in that picture, why did he bring it back?" Still passed on? ”

He Yuejia and He Chenxue both nodded, agreeing with Fan Meng's speculation.

Yuan Zhen said: "It's simple, because he suddenly thought about it, and he thought that he shouldn't have broken the bureau under Xingrenju." ”

Fan Meng looked at the map in his hand: "You mean, this map was originally a bureau, and others didn't find it, but your ancestor found out, so he survived, but he still didn't find the Jiacuo Hall in Jiacuo Castle in the end." ”

"Think about it carefully, how did you come to this picture, isn't it weird?" Yuan Zhenba pointed to the map in Fan Meng's hand, "I gave it to Sheng Feng, Sheng Feng regarded the original map as a collection, and he must have looked for someone to look for it over the years, but there was no result, on this basis, before the start of this operation, he did not take out the map to Sheng Yutang or Sheng Zitai, which shows that he knows very well that there is a problem with the map and will not hand it over to his sons to die, and the copy in your hand is obviously stolen by Duan Meng, He Yuejia and He Chenxue's mother." ”

He Yuejia immediately said: "Since my mother stole it out, it means that she knows that the picture is useful, she has been by Sheng Feng's side, and she knows the meaning of this picture!" ”

Yuan Zhenba shook his head: "Although Shengfeng was calculated by Duan Meng this time, I still don't think Duan Meng will be smarter than Shengfeng, if Shengfeng is really that stupid, how can he become the master of the Heyumen back then?" The Xuan family of the Jade Casting Society is indeed extremely smart, but Sheng Feng is not stupid, you can figure out the truth for yourself. ”

"Okay, you have a point." Fan Meng nodded and put away the map, "So, why did you, the cargo chaser who keeps saying that you want to find the 'Wrath of the Witch God', go to the Jiacuo Palace?" Could it be that the hall is full of the kind of poisonous golden mushrooms that you can study? ”

Yuan Zhen said: "That's my business, it has nothing to do with you." You just have to remember that I'm the only one around you who can help right now, and without me, the three of you won't even have a hard time going down the mountain. ”

Fan Meng was silent, just preparing to go down the mountain, he didn't want to fall behind the torture technique, but the difficulty of going down the mountain was beyond their imagination. Whether it was the side of torture or Fan Meng's side, everyone was in danger several times. In this process, He Chenxue behaved extremely strong, even though she felt that she couldn't hold on several times, she still gritted her teeth and held on, because in the end, she didn't want to be a burden in Fan Meng's eyes.

But the reality is also very cruel, Fan Meng's "care" for her is only verbal, and will not pull her, drag her, or protect her - because in front of He Yuejia, Fan Meng will not touch He Chenxue, the sister-in-law who likes her, even if it is her fingers.

Towards evening, the torture team was the first to reach the bottom of the mountain. After landing steadily, everyone checked each other to see if the equipment was missing and whether the main parts of the body were injured, because during the long downward journey, people had become a little numb, even a soldier like Yan Gang couldn't support it.

Tan Tong ran to the side and peed happily, during which his throat deliberately made a satisfactory sound. Yan Gang was bored of hearing this, grabbed the stone and threw it over, when Tan Tong was dodging the stone, he tripped over the plant on the ground and rolled directly into the bush next to him, but this roll into it made Tan Tong discover that behind the unknown bush that was one person high, there was another world hidden - a camp that was once inhabited but abandoned for many years.

Tan Tong immediately beckoned the others to come forward, and after walking through the bushes, he found three canvas tents full of holes in the low woods behind, it seemed that people had been here many years ago and lived here for a while.

Tan Tong was about to step forward, but the torture technique stopped, looked around and said: "Yan Gang entered the camp to search, Xiaobai followed to help, Samu Chuan Shangshu was on guard, and the Gun King, you follow me." ”

"Okay." Tan Tong nodded, and followed the torture technique to stand on the periphery of the camp, and he also knew why the torture technique did not let him enter it rashly, because this kind of camp is more professional at first glance, not an ordinary traveler, so the people stationed here will install some traps around, some traps are even useful after ten years, once touched, they will either die or be injured.

After a long time, Tan Tong came out of the tent in the middle and said, "No problem, you can come in." ”

Torture nodded, and at this time, Bai Zhongzheng got out of the other tent, glanced at him, walked towards the last tent left, and subconsciously nodded towards Samuchuan, who was on guard in the tree.

Entering the tent in the middle, he saw that there was a simple table on the left side, the table was made of another large tree trunk, which was directly flat on the ground, and there was a low stump next to it as a stool, and it seemed that the table was originally the trunk of this stump.

To the right of the table were three beds, and several waterproof backpacks that looked fairly intact, covered in dust, and empty cans scattered in the corners, which should have been neatly piled up, perhaps after the tent was broken, and the wind blew in and blew over the cans.

At the bottom of the three beds were iron leaves, then hay and branches, all of which were supposed to be used to keep out the moisture. Above is the sleeping bag. Yan Gang stepped forward, squatted in front of the sleeping bag and said: "The sleeping bag is made in the United Kingdom, and the sleeping bag of this material is now produced by several companies in the United Kingdom, and there is no trademark on it, but I have used a similar one, it should be produced by a semi-military industrial enterprise in the United Kingdom, those canned foods are spam, that is, the world stick luncheon meat, most of the production dates are not clear, but I saw that the production date of one of the cans is 1987, and the time of canning fruit next to it is also." ”

Xingshu looked around: "So, the person who established this camp came here in the eighties of the last century?" ”

Yan Gang took the canned food box and said: "It's almost, but there are not many other daily necessities left, on the simple table, there are traces of ink, it seems that there is ink spilled here, and nothing else has been found, when the people here leave, it seems that they are not in a hurry." ”

"Not necessarily." Torture shook his head and pointed to the sleeping bag, "If they weren't in a hurry, why didn't they take the sleeping bag with them?" If you think about it, we have to walk for days to get here from the outside, not to mention that the traffic is not as good as it is in the 80s of the last century, they have to evacuate, it is impossible not to bring sleeping bags, and besides, there must be people like researchers in this team, and they are very serious and responsible people. ”

Tan Tong immediately asked, "What do you say?" ”

Yan Gang pointed to the table and said, "The torture technique means that there is ink on the table, right?" ”

"Yes, it's ink." "In 1987, there were already laptops, but they were not popular, most people were very unfamiliar with this thing, even in foreign countries, I think this researcher still uses a fountain pen to record, the reason why I say he is serious is because in that era, especially abroad, when working in the office, everyone preferred to use a ballpoint pen without ink, which was called a ballpoint pen at the time, and people who carried a fountain pen with a pen and used a fountain pen all the time, They are all people who are cautious and conscientious about their work, and think that not using a pen is a detriment to their identity, and I think there must be a person in this camp who has a different background than everyone else, who is highly educated, and has a strange temper. ”

Tan Tong looked at the serious analysis of the torture technique on the side, and then said: "You can put half of your thoughts on the analysis of these things, and you won't fall into the current place...... Before the word "step" was spoken, Tan Tong saw Yan Gang staring at him, and immediately turned around and walked towards the outside of the tent, pretending that nothing had happened just now.

Xingshu stood there, pretending not to hear Tan Tong's words, but Tan Tong's words made him suddenly realize that the few hours of climbing during the day did not allow him to completely divert his attention, and if someone mentioned that incident and mentioned that person, he would still feel uncomfortable.

He realizes that this is dangerous, and that too much attachment to his feelings can affect his own judgment, and his own judgment mistakes can lead to accidents that other companions can avoid.

The moment Tan Tong walked out of the tent, he stepped on something hard under his feet, he leaned over to take a look, then pulled out a dagger and pried up a rusty bullet casing that was stuck on the ground, and looked closer: "This is interesting, when this group of people came, they also brought guns, and they were standard rifles." ”

When the word "gun" came out, Yan Gang had immediately walked up to Tan Tong, took the cartridge case, and looked at it carefully: "It's a 7.62mm bullet, the AK series of rifles all use this kind of bullet, and they are also used in five or six half, five or six punches and eighty-one style, so I can't tell what kind of gun they are carrying, and the factory code and year code at the bottom of the cartridge case are not clear." ”

Tan Tong shook his head: "Even if you see it clearly, it's useless, you can't find the source at all, but I think it's terrible, I actually brought a gun in, and it was in 1987, and other things in the comprehensive tent, this team should be from abroad." ”

"Not necessarily." Xingshu shook his head, and as he was talking, he saw Bai Zhongzheng walking in with a fairly intact canvas bag and throwing it on the ground.

Torture asked, "What is it?" ”

"The other two tents each have two beds, but there are no sleeping bags, plus the tent in the middle, it is inferred that there are 7 people living in this camp, 3 of them may be foreigners, and the other 4 should be Chinese, because in those days, where did the ordinary Chinese get their sleeping bags?" Bai Zhongzheng said, squatted down and opened the backpack, and turned out some messy things from it, all of which were rotten daily necessities, towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, men's underwear, and a pair of gloves.

Tan Tong took the cigarette paste: "Yo, what about the herb toothpaste, made in Anhui, the famous brand of the year." ”

Bai Zhongzheng took out another watch: "There is another watch here, it is not damaged, but it is rusty." ”

The torture technique has been obtained: "It's a Shanghai card." ”

Tan Tong took it and looked at it carefully: "Yes, it's a Shanghai brand, in the eighties, this kind of watch can't be bought, and the better units will be rewarded, at that time you were all young, I guess you don't remember, this thing had to rely on industrial coupons at that time." ”

Yan Gang nodded: "I remember that at that time, it was not a market economy, it was a planned economy, and everything relied on tickets, food stamps, industrial coupons or something. ”

Bai Zhongzheng said: "Don't say it, there are really food stamps in the tent over there." ”

Torture said: "Let's go, go and see." ”

The four of them left the big tent and walked towards a small tent on the right outside.

After entering, the torture technique found that the small tent was very simple, except for the bed, there was nothing else, and the food stamp that Bai Zhongzheng said was packed in another bag, with a small canvas bag to pack it well, after many years, it can still be cleared and see that it is written on it "Benxi City Fine Grain Stamp 500 grams", the date below is 1988, and the food stamp is clearly written on it "limited to this year".

After reading the torture technique, he raised his eyes and said: "It's basically confirmed, this group of people came in 1988, if it weren't for 1988, this person wouldn't have brought this year's food stamps, from this point it can be inferred that they were hired and planned to go back, because people who don't plan to go back won't bring food stamps with them, and there are no other clues?" ”

Bai Zhongzheng shook his head: "No, and it's almost night, it's dark, you can't see anything, the fog is shrouded below, even if the moonlight is bright at night, it can't shine through, should we find another place, or will it be in this camp?" ”

"It's in this camp, at least it's the most open place around, and I want to study more about what happened to the people in this camp back then." ”

Just when the criminal arts and others began to perform their duties, looking for firewood, finding water, and surveying the surrounding terrain, Fu Mingwei had escorted Sheng Feng and Xuan Tong back to Harbin, and detained the two in a separate prison area of the detention center.

The guards in the prison area have been replaced by police officers directly dispatched by the provincial department, and the five-layer defense can be described as airtight, although the two live alone in two different rooms, they are relatively close to each other, and there are police officers on duty at the door 24 hours a day, and no one can enter without formalities and documents, even Fu Mingwei himself.

In the conference room of the outer prison area, Fu Mingwei and the superior leaders had a meeting for nearly five hours, and after the first hour, Dong Guozhi was also called in, and the remaining four hours were all about listing evidence, analyzing and speculating. The superiors knew that this kind of case was too professional and difficult, so they specially invited two experts from Beijing, one surnamed Bai and Bai Zhusheng, and the other named Murong Bai.

Both of them are over sixty years old, but they are still physically tough, speak in a clear manner, and know a lot about the antique industry, and they have also helped the Forbidden City to detect the theft of cultural relics, and they can be regarded as consultants to the capital police in this regard.

After the meeting, the superior leaders left, and when they left, they specially told Fu Mingwei not to put too much pressure on this case, because the case is special, so there is no time limit, and at the same time, they are also waiting for the cooperation of the Interpol, but as for how to cooperate, the office in the capital is coordinating with the Interpol.

Next, it was time for Fu Mingwei to learn from the two advisers, Fu Mingwei originally wanted to take the two out to eat, but the two advisers refused to do so, just eat the food in the detention center's canteen, and then Bai Zhusheng also quipped: "When I was young, I really ate the food in the detention center for a while." ”

Fu Mingwei smiled: "Mr. Bai, you were also a policeman when you were young?" ”

Fu Mingwei said this out of politeness, of course Bai Zhusheng knew, he laughed, and Murong Bai next to him also smiled and shook his head, explaining for Bai Zhusheng: "He used to squat in the detention center, because he bought and sold things that should not be bought and sold, but the case was not big, and he was released after detention and education." ”

Fu Mingwei nodded and smiled, signaling Dong Guozhi for him to go to dinner, and after Dong Guozhi left, Bai Zhusheng said: "Officer Fu, about what you said." We have never heard of this organization, it should be said that we are not interested in any foreign organizations, and we do not have the ability to know, because in our China alone, there are many organizations that have been passed down by the people for hundreds of years, and they also have a lot of secrets, and Brother Murong and I know only some skins, because there are rules in the industry, if it is not for the country, not for the purpose of solving cases, we will not say it. ”

Fu Mingwei nodded: "Actually, in the same way, there are people who are engaged in your business who have told me, I can understand, this is a kind of ...... Tradition, right? ”

Murong Bai nodded: "By the way, before coming to Harbin, I still wondered, why do you want to go far when you are looking for a consultant?" ”

Fu Mingwei shook his head: "I don't understand what Mr. Murong means?" ”

Bai Zhusheng immediately said: "Everyone knows that there is a very powerful court in Harbin, called Zheng Cangqiong, as for where he is now, we don't know, but you are the police, it should be easy to find out." ”

Bai Zhusheng's words made Fu Mingwei stunned, because Fu Mingwei also knew the existence of Zheng Cangqiong when he investigated the criminal technique in the last investigation of Pan Feng's case, and he also knew that he was also a person in the industry, but he didn't expect that his reputation would be even greater than he imagined.
