Chapter 274: Phoenix Island Spy (1)
On the last day of April, the Templar Princess, which sailed from the port of Yokohama in Japan, finally docked at Phoenix Harbor in Sanya at around 4 p.m.
This international luxury cruise ship lasted more than a week of travel, and the route passed through Naha in Japan, Kaohsiung in Taiwan, Manila in the Philippines, Da Nang in Vietnam and other Southeast Asian tourist cities, and the final foothold was selected in Sanya, Hainan, China.
Xiong Jiandong drove a very inconspicuous car and parked it about a few dozen meters away from the tourist exit of the pier.
He took a flight from Huaicheng to Guangzhou the night before yesterday, and after transferring today, he arrived in Sanya a few hours ago.
Xiong Jiandong's eyes were always staring at the exit, aiming at a lean little man.
Obviously, this monkey-like and skinny man is Xiong Jiandong and Miao Xin, who tracked all the way from the front brigade of Hulaqide in the Middle East to Tan Qidart in Daimaru, Tokyo, Japan.
For Xiong Jiandong, he has a heart, no matter what this time, he can't miss the opportunity to let Tan Qidart slip away from under his nose again.
It has been two months since Lin Si'er died, and the skull USB disk she left behind with her life has no whereabouts so far, and Xiong Jiandong has never been reconciled.
Although he didn't know what important secrets Lin Si'er had preserved in the Skull USB drive, his intuition told Xiong Jiandong that the reason why Lin Si'er was cruelly imprisoned by Lu Zhichao in the basement of Beverly 5 in Chinatown, San Francisco, USA, and sent someone to guard it closely is obviously directly related to the secrets hidden in the Skull USB drive.
However, Xiong Jiandong also has a doubt that is difficult to get rid of, that is, for Tan Qidart, whether he is really the one who stole the skull USB disk.
Otherwise, in the front brigade of Hulaqide in the Middle East, Miao Xin disregarded her dignity that day, and took the initiative to please Tan Qidart, and she thought hard, why couldn't she find any clues about the skull from him.
Originally, yesterday, when the matter of the Spirit God Sect had been dealt with, and Hui Changyuan was locked in an iron cage by Ciyi Shitai, Xiong Jiandong had already begun to think about it and wanted to leave for Sanya immediately.
He first went to Wang Fuyu's house in the afternoon to leave a sum of money for Monk Wang, and then thought that he would immediately go to say goodbye to Mrs. Ciyi and Miaoxin, and by the way, ask again if there was any other reference value for the interaction with Tan Qidart at that time.
However, when Xiong Jiandong found the residence of Mrs. Ciyi and Miaoxin, and when he walked to the door, he heard that the two of them, master and apprentice, were talking about things related to themselves.
The attitude and topics between the master and apprentice made Xiong Jiandong feel embarrassed and did not enter the house rashly.
Because Xiong Jiandong felt that it was difficult to explain clearly to Master Ciyi, how he and Miaoxin pretended to be husband and wife, they got along day and night for half a month, slept in the same bed, and in order to hide people's eyes, they had several deliberate intimacy and ambiguity.
If these things were truthfully given to Mrs. Ciyi, it would undoubtedly make Miaoxin not only embarrassed in front of the master, but also continue to offend Miaoxin's reputation in vain because of the past.
So, he immediately endured his heart and decided to say goodbye to Mrs. Ciyi and Miaoxin without saying goodbye.
This morning, after he flew to Sanya, he first disguised himself and dressed up as a foreign tourist from a Southeast Asian island country, confirming that Tan Qidart would not easily recognize him, so he rented a car and came to the Phoenix Island International Cruise Terminal.
After waiting in the car for more than half an hour, Tan Qidart's figure really took a taxi and appeared in time.
Xiong Jiandong parked his car a few dozen meters not far from Tan Qidart, convinced that even if Tan Qidart walked in front of the car, he would definitely see him as a stranger.
Because, Xiong Jiandong is quite meticulously prepared for his disguise.
He put a thin whisker on his face, and painted all his skin tanned, making himself look exactly like the natives of a Southeast Asian island country who were constantly exposed to the scorching sun.
With the long-honking horn of the Templar Princess, tourists began to appear on the pier. Tan Qidart quickly connected with Fan Lizhi.
When the two of them got into a taxi, Xiong Jiandong quietly followed.
To Xiong Jiandong's surprise, the taxi that Tan Qidang took did not drive in the direction of Sanya City, but drove for more than ten minutes before turning into a resort hotel on Phoenix Island.
This kind of resort hotel can be found everywhere in Sanya, and the rooms are usually scattered in many bungalows rather than a single high-rise building.
Xiong Jiandong did not get out of the car.
He concluded that after only a while, Tan Qidart and Fan Lizhi would register and walk out.
Sure enough, more than ten minutes later, a waiter pulled a luggage cart and led the two of them to a guest room.
The signboard of the guest room here reads Tinghai Residence.
This time, Xiong Jiandong got out of the car and followed from behind, but he didn't go directly into the guest room, but waited for the waiter outside.
When he saw the waiter come out, Xiong Jiandong asked him, is there any room in Haiju that can be stayed?
The waiter replied that he needed to go to the front desk to ask to be clear.
Xiong Jiandong asked again, how many rooms did the two guests live in just now, and he also wanted to live in this Tinghai Residence, but he didn't want to be too close to the other guests, so as to be exceptionally secluded.
The waiter glanced at Xiong Jiandong strangely, and replied casually, the man lives in No. 3, and the woman lives in No. 7.
He also said one more sentence, although tomorrow is the May Day holiday, and there is a peak of tourists, but every room in the Haiju can be regarded as quiet and comfortable.
After thanking the waiter, Xiong Jiandong immediately went to the front desk and registered the No. 2 room next to Tan Qidart, Tinghaiju.
By this time, it was almost six o'clock.
At this resort, although the rooms are scattered in different locations, the restaurant is concentrated in the lobby next to the front desk.
Xiong Jiandong came to the restaurant early, ordered two bottles of beer, and slowly waited for Tan Qidart and Fan Lizhi to appear.
In his mind, he was thinking about the various fragments of information about Tan Qidart and Fan Lizhi over the past few days, and gradually connected them together.
Xiong Jiandong's first thought was that Tan Qidao was ordered by Lu Zhichao to come to Sanya this time.
From the day at the Daimaru Hotel in Tokyo, I overheard the conversation between Colini and Fan Lizhi, indicating that Tan Qidart came to cooperate with Fan Lizhi to connect with someone. And this person who was taken over, it is obvious that Tan Qidart had contact before, and Fan Lizhi didn't know him originally.
This point can also be confirmed later from Lu Zhichao's room with a button video camera left by Captain Kent in the United States, which was recorded in the quarrel between Lu Zhichao and Fan Lizhi.
Regarding the unraveling of the secret information between Fan Lizhi and the contact, Xiong Jiandong felt that as a national security officer, even if he was a temporary agent, he should be duty-bound.
However, how to deal with Tan Qidart and find the whereabouts of the skull USB drive may be more important to Xiong Jiandong personally.
