Chapter 224: High Salary Attractive
"I just saw that your tone was trembling when you told the dummy that he came back to life, and now if you really go over there, aren't you afraid?" Shen Xing asked.
Xia Hongyu was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, her expression was still very firm, "I have to know if someone is harming me, because I suspect that this matter has something to do with my ex-husband." ”
Shen Xing didn't judge presumptuously, feeling that this was someone's private matter, so he didn't ask too much.
"You can find someone to investigate first."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Hongyu's eyes immediately felt a little wrong when she looked at Shen Xing, and her eyes lit up slightly.
"Your wood carving can restrain the dummy who is going to attack me, you must have a way, or the wood carving you made can help me."
What Shen Xing meant just now was, of course, not that she wanted to help her investigate, but that she would rely on Xia Hongyu's connections and connections to find someone who was good at investigating.
Who knew that Xia Hongyu didn't think about anything else at all, but directly took a fancy to Shen Xing himself, thinking that his wood carving could restrain the resurrection of dummies, so Shen Xing was the most suitable person to go.
Of course, if she knew that Shen Xing had only handled a boy puppet similar to her dummy at home yesterday, she would have strengthened her mind.
"I might ...... There was no time. Shen Xing shook his head.
Xia Hongyu immediately said: "I didn't ask you to help for nothing, I will pay you a lot of money, as long as you are willing to help me investigate." ”
"What do you want to investigate?" Shen Xing asked, "Could it be that your ex-husband lives in Ping'an City, Jingzhou?" ”
"Nope." Xia Hongyu explained: "I don't know where he is now, I only know that he may secretly do me badly, because he is jealous that I am better off than him now, and he has always been a selfish person." ”
Shen Xing shrugged his shoulders, "I'm sorry, I haven't handled some things myself, and I may not be able to leave." ”
Xia Hongyu said: "I won't let you go alone, I will hire a private detective, you just need to follow him to do things, if there is a dummy, just use your wood carving to deal with it." ”
Shen Xing fell silent, he thought about it carefully, he was also very puzzled about the fact that he had received the boy's puppet.
Now he is not thinking about wasting thousands of dollars in vain, but what is the reason for this, whether the ordered puppets were exchanged, whether it was accidental or inevitable, he couldn't speculate.
If it really doesn't work, take advantage of Xia Hongyu's request this time, just go back to Ping'an City to check, anyway, I have the resources provided by Xia Hongyu to use, which will save a lot of trouble and expenses.
The only thing Shen Xing is worried about now is that if he goes to investigate with someone, it may not be convenient.
"Well, if you want me to go, it's okay." Shen Xing finally nodded, "But I want to act alone, not with private detectives." However, I know that the private investigator has a wide range of sources of information, and he does not have to go to Ping'an City, but he can always provide me with the information I want to know. Do you think that's okay? ”
Hearing this, Xia Hongyu hesitated a little and asked, "Mr. Shen, you have been doing wood carving at home, have you ever had experience in investigating this aspect?" ”
"Then you're mistaken." Shen Xing smiled, "I often go out to collect materials, and sometimes when I come across a better wood or some hidden materials, I will try my best to find out." So investigating this kind of thing, in fact, has been doing it all the time. ”
Xia Hongyu nodded suspiciously, "Okay, I'll let the private investigator Lao Liang contact you, provide you with the information you want, and then give you 200,000 yuan as the cost of this investigation." If you have the clue that my ex-husband deliberately harmed me, I will give you another 1.8 million as a reward. ”
Hearing the last fee, Shen Xing suddenly felt that it would be impossible to go on this trip, otherwise he would not be able to pass this level.
This woman is really a financier, just to help investigate his ex-husband, as long as he has a clue to get such a large sum of money, this deal is indeed a good deal.
"May I ask you what the hell is going on with your ex-husband?" Shen Xing said: "Don't mind, since I want to help you, I always have to understand some information in advance." ”
Xia Hongyu didn't think much about it, and probably told about her last marriage.
This woman is just thirty-five this year, in fact, she is not very old, and she has a very strong financial talent.
Her ex-husband was laid off after marriage because of the company's poor performance, and has been idle at home since then, and later instead of going out to find a job, he has become addicted to gambling.
Because the family's money was earned by Xia Hongyu, this guy didn't feel hard at all, and he carried Xia Hongyu behind his back to make the originally wealthy family into debt, and when Xia Hongyu found out, the house in the family had been recovered by the bank because of the other party's lawsuit.
In addition, Xia Hongyu also discovered a fact that made people's scalp tingle, when she was cleaning up the house, she found an accident insurance in the gap under her husband's bedside table.
It was purchased for her by her husband, and the insurance was huge, and it was purchased in the last month when she found out.
Xia Hongyu was extremely frightened after thinking about this, and immediately filed for divorce and moved out, never daring to meet this man again.
During this period, the man found her and kept explaining, but Xia Hongyu was already iron-hearted and never wanted to return.
The two have been separated for two years, which is one of the conditions for the breakdown of the relationship, and then Xia Hongyu filed a divorce lawsuit and completely broke off contact with the man.
In the following time, she would receive text messages from the other party from time to time, the content of the text messages included peace, abuse, gambling curses, threats, etc., Xia Hongyu simply changed her mobile phone number, and her ex-husband did not contact her again until that time.
After Shen Xing roughly understood the situation, he thought about it from Xia Hongyu's point of view, and his first reaction was also that the resurrection of the dummy in the family this time was very likely to be related to this woman's ex-husband.
Of course, the premise is that the woman has no other enemies in her business.
As long as the source of making this dummy is found, that is, the "Mohs Handicraft Workshop", some clues should be found.
Xia Hongyu was very happy, and after seeing that Shen Xing agreed, she immediately gave Shen Xing the contact information of the private detective, and directly transferred 200,000 yuan to Shen Xing's card, not worrying that he would escape with the money at all.
After the matter was negotiated, Xia Hongyu asked, "Mr. Shen, during the time you are out, I can help you take care of Fei Fei." ”
The two had talked before, so she also knew that Fei Fei was Shen Xing's adopted child, and for such a caring person, she would be relieved to transfer 200,000 yuan to Shen Xing's account just now.
Shen Xing was originally going to repeat his old trick and let the second goods come out to take care of Fei Fei for a few more days, but now he heard Xia Hongyu say that if he refused, after two days of leaving, maybe Xia Hongyu would come to see Fei Fei.
When the time comes, you will suddenly see the second goods, but it will cause trouble.
Since this is the case, it is better to simply hand Fei Fei over to this woman to take care of this time, anyway, Xia Hongyu's living conditions are good, and she will definitely not treat Fei Fei badly.
The only thing to see now is whether Fei Fei is willing or not.
However, Shen Xing felt that Fei Fei should be fine, for Xia Hongyu, the little girl behaved quite kindly, and there was no obvious rejection.
However, when Su Tong, a rich girl, came to buy wood carvings last time, Fei Fei's vigilance towards her was quite high, although Shen Xing felt this, but he didn't understand the reason at all.
Sometimes it can only be said that the magnetic field between the two is not in the right way.
The two said that Fei Fei would be directly picked up by Xia Hongyu at that time, and would not go back to Dahu Apartment, but would stay at Xia Hongyu's house for a few days, waiting for Shen Xing to come back.
Shen Xing was not worried about this, he knew very well that this woman was much better at taking care of the child than taking care of herself.
And someone takes care of Fei Fei, I believe that the two goods will not appear.
This is the law summarized by Shen Xing, and it is also the law of whether the choice of secondary goods will appear.
In the evening, Shen Xing told Fei Fei about his plan this time, but he just said that he would go out to do some errands temporarily and come back in a few days, while Aunt Xia said that she missed her very much and wanted to pick her up for a few days.
On the way Shen Xing sent Fei Fei over, Fei Fei held a small bag containing daily necessities and muttered vigorously.
Shen Xing listened for a long time before he could understand clearly, and what Fei Fei muttered was: a clumsy excuse.
Hearing this, Shen Xing suddenly had the idea of letting Fei Fei read less extracurricular readings, because this little girl's tone had a feeling of being more and more inclined to be an adult.

Xia Hongyu's home is very large, which caused Fei Fei to keep talking about the five words "clumsy excuse", and when she entered the living room of the Xia family, she immediately shut up.
After walking around the huge room, Fei Fei's expression was firm, her tone was resolute, and she said to Shen Xing; "Uncle Shen, I decided, since Aunt Xia is quite lonely living alone, then I will accompany her for a few more days, you don't have to worry about me."
At this time, the golden retriever who did not recognize life was sniffing at the little girl's feet, shaking her head and tail, and Fei Fei also looked at it happily, obviously very fond of it.
Well, Shen Xing felt that this one big and one small, plus a cat and a dog seemed to have a good temper, so there was really no need to worry about her.
Xia Hongyu booked a ticket for him to noon tomorrow, and Fei Fei rested directly at Xia's house that night, so that Xia Hongyu could drive her to school the next day.
Shen Xing returned home, put the two wood carvings of Chong Po III and Chong Po IV into his backpack, and equipped all the other necessary tools to deal with anomalies one by one, and after all were ready, he went to sleep.
The next day, Xia Hongyu sent Fei Fei to school, and then came to Dahu Apartment, talked with Shen Xing for a while, and drove him to the airport by the way.
Because I was in a hurry, I didn't buy a direct ticket to Ping'an City, but waited until I arrived in Jingzhou and then transferred to other planes.
After getting on the plane, I didn't say anything all the way, waited for half an hour, and then took the second plane to reach the destination quickly.
Coming out of Ping'an City Airport, Shen Xing took a taxi to a hotel that had been booked in advance.
He deliberately chose the location of this hotel, not far from the most prosperous puppet market, and the last time he parked his car to buy the long song puppet shop, it is also not far from the hotel.
After checking in at the hotel, Shen Xing rested for a while, and did not go directly to the Mohs handicraft workshop at No. 208, Ping'an Lane 17, which is some distance from the hotel, and it takes about fifteen minutes to arrive by taxi.
He first chose to go to the shop where he bought Miss Changge's puppets last time, and he still had some impressions of that place, so he walked into the street and quickly found this shop.
At this moment, it was not dinner time, the fat shopkeeper Boss Jia was sitting in the store drinking tea, and when he saw Shen Xing come in, he didn't recognize who it was, but just got up to greet him.
Shen Xing quickly glanced at the puppets in the store, and sure enough, he didn't find the girl puppet named Changge.
In other words, just like this Guy Degaard boss said, Changge was indeed sold to himself, but he didn't know that the goods sent out would become another puppet in Shen Xing's place.
"Boss Jia, do you remember me?" Shen Xing went straight to the point.
Judgaard squinted his eyes and took a closer look, the fat on his face was squeezed at the moment, and even his eyes were about to disappear.
After a while, he shook his head, it was really only one side last time, and after so many days, this guy's memory is not so good.
"I ordered a long song and received this."
Shen Xing took out his mobile phone, lit up the screen, and opened the photo of the boy puppet he had taken.
Judgaard suddenly realized and nodded quickly, "It turned out to be you!" Did you bring the boy puppet? But that kid isn't in my store, I can't get back. ”
"No, goods, I won't return it."
Shen Xing waved his hand, turned on his phone, canceled the refund application in front of Judgaard, and then clicked directly to pay.
Seeing his confused operation, Judgaard immediately looked confused and looked up at him.
In Jia Degao's mind, Shen Xing ran so far to return, but to perform the receiving process in front of himself?
Shen Xing put away his mobile phone, which explained his intention.
"That boy puppet is actually quite a liking too, and this business trip happened to pass by, so by the way, I want to find out what went wrong, which led to my indissoluble bond with the boy puppet."
He deliberately avoided the important and trivial, just so as not to arouse suspicion among Juddel and others, which would be inconvenient for his next actions.
Seeing that the other party liked it, he didn't come to pursue himself, nor did he exchange it, and when he saw that the account was also recovered, he suddenly let go of his heart.
Immediately asked the guy to make a cup of tea for Shen Xing, and then patiently explained: "My shipping list here is all Changge puppets, it will definitely not be wrong, in this way, I will let the guy who was in charge of packing and shipping that day tell you in detail." ”
"No need." Shen Xing waved his hand, "If you can find me the monitoring during the shipment, you can rest assured that I won't blame you for this, I'm just curious." ”
Jia Degao pondered for a moment and nodded, "The surveillance video is from the fast shipping company, and we also thought about it at that time, there should be one!" In that case, I'll get in touch now, and you'll have some tea here, and if there's any, I'll let them pass it on. ”
After the transaction was completed, the attitude of the boss Jia became very enthusiastic, and he immediately agreed to do it, and asked a young man to guard the door of the store and go inside by himself.
Shen Xing held the teacup and stopped around the store, browsing the other puppets.
About twenty minutes later, Judgaard and another guy came out, this guy was holding a tablet in his hand, and he was opening a video at the moment, the video was a little dim, but the clarity of the picture was still good.
"I found it, and this is the loading screen at that time." Jia Degao pointed to the video and said to Shen Xing: "Fortunately, you came early, and the fast delivery company over there said that if you come tomorrow to ask for it, this video will be automatically deleted." ”
Shen Xing didn't speak, just looked at the video screen seriously.
In the picture, a man in the uniform of a courier company takes the goods to be shipped into the trunk of the truck one by one.
At this time, the young man pointed to one of the neatly packed goods, and said, "This is the puppet song you wanted, Mr. I sent it that day, and after packing the things, I saw that the fast delivery slip was pasted on the outer packaging of this goods before leaving." ”
After the words fell, he pointed to the neatly packed goods and said, "Oh, this is it, and my words are written on this fast delivery list." ”
Shen Xing looked at it, and sure enough, as the young man said, it should be this one.
However, until the porter loaded the goods onto the truck, there was no sign of being replaced, and soon all the goods to be transported were loaded.
The porter clapped his hands and left the surveillance range, probably to drink water.
At this moment, a person appeared in the picture, and this person was the young man holding the tablet at the moment.
When he saw himself appear in the picture, the guy was stunned and surprised: "That's me?" When will I go back? I remember I'm gone! ”
Shen Xing saw that this guy's expression didn't seem to be fake, and at this moment, he suddenly had a sense of déjà vu about this scene.
