Chapter 33: Finding a Needle in a Haystack

Kui Lan returned to the car and immediately called: "Hey, Xu San, you go to check for me now whether the moving company in Beijing has moved in the old Hutong area of Gulou in the past three days, and tell me as soon as there is news." Kui Lan didn't listen to the other party's response and hung up the phone.

Chen Mengsheng teased beside him: "That's what you said when you sent someone to hunt us down, right?" ”

Kui Lan put down her phone, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep breath before saying, "Have you ever tried hiding in a cabinet and covering your mouth to watch your relatives being hacked to death by the enemy?" Have you ever been hungry and have to go and grab other people's leftovers with your dogs? Have you ever begged someone with blood in your heart and a smile on your face? Chen Mengsheng didn't know how to answer except shaking his head......

Kui Lan flicked the ashes of her cigarette and continued: "My mother doesn't want us anymore, my brother and I have been fostered since we were children, and my father is either on the run or in prison in my childhood memories. When I was a child, my biggest wish was to be able to eat a bowl of braised pork, but there were many things that I couldn't choose. Later, when I grew up, I realized the truth that if I don't kill others, others will kill me in turn. My brother and I are losers in the eyes of outsiders, but they don't understand that we are using money to buy back what we lost. Let's go, take you to Wangfujing to eat top steak! Before Chen Mengsheng could come back to his senses, Kui Lan had already rushed away with a step on the accelerator.

Obviously, Kui Lan is a regular customer here, and after getting off the bus, Kui Lan entered the elevator and walked to a private room and said to the waiter: "A bottle of Bordeaux Lafite, two customers and three mature top Kobe steaks." The waiter poured black tea for Chen Mengsheng and Kui Lan and politely withdrew.

Chen Mengsheng asked strangely: "Aren't you downstairs if you want to eat?" ”

"The first floor is the lobby, and you need an atmosphere to eat. I'm sure I don't have an appetite for them so noisy downstairs, haven't you been hungry for most of the day? Quilan laughed.

Chen Mengsheng replied seriously: "I don't care if I eat or not." ”

"Oh, yes, you'll learn the Dao Technique. What's your name? How did you end up with Zhang Ning and them? Kui Lan asked with interest as she took a sip of tea.

Chen Mengsheng asked rhetorically: "My name is Chen Mengsheng, who called you to tell you about half a jade plate that day?" ”

"How do I know, my father told me." Kuilan blurted out.

Chen Mengsheng said with a straight face: "The person who called you to tell you the news is likely to be the murderer of Zhang Ning's father, so I want to know who it is?" Did he sell you a 5 million stone rubbing last year? ”

Kui Lan was silent for a while and said, "Oh, I'm a little impressed by what you said. That time my father asked me to trade, I remember that my father went to withdraw the money, the money was all serial bills, and he still has the serial number provided by the bank. But the other party was cautious and only asked me to put the money in the trash can under the flyover. I was waiting next to the trash can, and then I saw a man wearing a mask and a poncho take the money, and I also received a call from my father saying that he had put the stone in my mailbox and I went home. I don't know who took the money. ”

Chen Mengsheng sighed: "It's really cunning! Skynet is magnificent and sparse, and the wicked will eventually suffer the consequences. ”

"Chen Mengsheng, Chen Mengsheng, sometimes I really think you're stupid. Have you always been cultivating in the mountains? You've become an old antique, and the wicked will only be killed by the bigger villains, and the old genius won't care! Kuilan shook her head.

Two waiters came in with a dining cart, put a silver plate covered with a pot in front of Chen Mengsheng and Kui Lan, and slowly uncovered the silver plate as a steaming steak. Another waiter took out a bottle of wine from the ice bucket in the dining car, shook it a few times, opened it and poured it for them, Kui Lan smiled and handed the waiter a tip, and the waiter set the tableware and closed the door playfully.

Chen Mengsheng looked at the steak on the silver plate and was stunned, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "Are they all eaten directly with their hands here?" ”

"Poof! Giggle......" Quillan laughed, and a few drops of wine splashed on Quilland's clothes. Kui Lan generously took off the beige suit, and a white strapless lanyard shirt was left inside.

"Miss Kuilan, what are you ...... How can you just wear a belly pocket to eat......" Chen Mengsheng said urgently.

"Giggle...... You...... You're so funny ...... you laugh at me...... It's not a belly pocket, it's a suspender coat......" Kui Lan suddenly thought that Chen Mengsheng was wearing a bikini when she first saw her, and her face immediately turned red, and she hurriedly opened the topic and said: "This is Western food, with a fork in your left hand and a knife in your right hand, you must have never eaten it in the mountains." You can see how I cut it, you can just do it, and the steak here is nice and melts in your mouth. Kui Lan elegantly cut off a piece of steak and forked it onto Chen Mengsheng's plate.

Chen Mengsheng was shocked: "This ...... Can you eat this ....... blood without drying up? ”

Kui Lan rolled her eyes and said, "Eat with confidence, I'll be responsible if you eat it." Chen Mengsheng picked up the beef with a fork like Kui Lan, and when it was delivered to his mouth, it was indeed very tender.

At this time, Kui Lan's mobile phone rang, and Kui Lan saw that the number was from Xu San, so she simply used the hands-free. "Hey, Sister Lan. I and my brothers have checked the moving companies you asked me to check, there are hundreds of moving companies large and small in Beijing, but none of them have moved in the old Hutong of Gulou as you said...... Or Sister Lan, tell me it's ......"

"Rice bucket! I can't do such a small thing, so keep looking for me! Kui Lan hung up the phone angrily, angrily took out a cigarette from her bag, lit a fire a few times, didn't light it, and simply threw away the lighter......

Chen Mengsheng picked up the lighter from the ground and tried it like Kui Lan, and the flames came out. Chen Mengsheng helped Kui Lan light a cigarette and said, "Why do you have such a big temper, the more anxious you are, the more you will make mistakes." Let me try, maybe there's news. Chen Mengsheng took out his mobile phone to contact Zhao Haipeng, told Zhao Haipeng about the sudden move of the Zhang family, and told him that there were several big trucks and many people. Zhao Haipeng understood when he heard it, and told Chen Mengsheng that he would immediately go to the Ministry of Communications to check the surveillance video, and Chen Mengsheng would be notified if there was news.

Kui Lan handed Chen Mengsheng a cigarette and said, "I never thought of letting the criminal police team do things, it seems that you are still powerful." The mood of being eaten like this is gone, I heard you say last night that you were looking for your junior sister? Chen Mengsheng hasn't smoked since he was choked by Zhao Haipeng, and Chen Mengsheng took the cigarette and lit it for him, obviously much better than before.

"My sister and I have been separated for many years, and I don't know if I will ever see her again in this life. The demon monk Puwang said that he had seen the half of the jade plate on my junior sister's body, and asked me to help him find the Nine Turning Dzi before he would tell me the whereabouts of my junior sister. Alas......" Chen Mengsheng tilted his neck and drank the wine in front of him, and his brows instantly wrinkled.

"Who made this wine? It's so unpleasant! Sour and astringent, they must be fooling us! Chen Mengsheng put down his wine glass and said.

"Giggle...... you really don't understand anything! Wine is not as good as you, first shake the glass to let the aroma of the wine come out, generally good wine will have a hanging glass on the wine glass, and then drink it in small sips. Kui Lan poured Chen Mengsheng another half glass of wine, although Chen Mengsheng's meal was full of foreign appearances, but he had another layer of understanding of modern life......

At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Mengsheng received a call from Zhao Haipeng, who found several moving trucks similar to Chen Mengsheng's description through the surveillance near the drum tower. Zhao Haipeng contacted the owner of the yellow fish car through the vehicle management bureau, and the owner also admitted that he had moved to the old Hutong of Gulou a few days ago, and the new address of the move could only be determined to be in the Fangshan area. According to the owner of the car, as long as the old man in charge of the yellow fish car moved the things to the other cars waiting in Fangshan, the old man paid the money and got on the other cars, and the clues were broken......

After Chen Mengsheng recounted Zhao Haipeng's investigation, he said: "The more meticulous people are, the easier it is to leave flaws, and the housekeeper of the Zhang family may have warned Boss Ma, who sells bean juice, about what we went to inquire about a few days ago." Since I know that they have changed cars in the Fangshan area, I believe that someone in the local area will pay attention to them. ”

"It's complicated! How much effort does it take to move? Kui Lan asked puzzled.

"Without further ado, let's leave for Fangshan immediately." Chen Mengsheng didn't know where Fangshan was, anyway, Kui Lan just knew.

Kui Lan readily agreed, "Okay, I'll go wash off the wine stains on this dress first." Kui Lan grabbed the clothes on the back of the chair and entered the bathroom of the box, and Chen Mengsheng could only wait helplessly outside......

Chen Mengsheng waited for a while, then opened the door and called the waiter outside the door and said, "Do you sell women's clothes here?" ”

The waiter smiled: "Mr. must have come to Beijing from other places, and the shopping mall is on the right hand side of the downstairs." You can choose the clothes you want, is there anything else that can serve you? Do you still need some dessert? ”

"Oh, no. You help me check out, can this card work? Chen Mengsheng took out the bank card that Zhang Ning helped him deposit from his trouser pocket, and Chen Mengsheng looked at the waiter a little nervously at the first checkout.

"Of course, sir, please wait." The waiter went out with the bank card, and it didn't take long for the waiter to come in again.

"It's four thousand eight hundred yuan in total, sir, please enter your password." The waiter handed the password input to Chen Mengsheng, and Chen Mengsheng pressed it according to the number that Zhang Ning wanted to memorize.

After the waiter confirmed, he returned the card to Chen Mengsheng and said with a smile: "Welcome to come next time!" ”

"That's it? Then I'll go out first, and if the girl inside comes out, you can ask her to wait for me. ”

"Okay, I'll tell you." Chen Mengsheng hurriedly went downstairs and asked the women's clothing department to go over, what Chen Mengsheng didn't expect was that the clothes and fabrics in the women's clothing department were less than one piece. I finally fell in love with a silk cheongsam embroidered with orchids, swiped my card and ran upstairs.

Kui Lan had been waiting in the box for a long time, and when she saw Chen Mengsheng holding a paper bag in her hand, she said, "The waiter said that you went out and asked me to wait for you, what are you doing here?" ”

Chen Mengsheng said apologetically: "Because I made your clothes dirty, I waited for you for a while and didn't see you come out, it must be difficult to wash them, so I helped you buy a piece of clothing to compensate you." ”

Kui Lan was surprised: "You...... Buy clothes and give them to me ......, just wash the clothes when they are dirty, and I'm slow because I want to dry the clothes. You...... I'm so embarrassed to be like this......"

Chen Mengsheng handed over the paper bag and said embarrassedly: "I rarely buy things, if it is not suitable, they say they can change it." ”

Kui Lan took it and sneered: "I like the clothes you bought, but this kind of clothes are not suitable for wearing out." ”

"Ahh Then I'll go out and change. Chen Mengsheng said depressedly.

Kui Lan blushed and said, "This is the clothes you wear in the bedroom, okay." Let's go out and find Miss Zhang's family, I'll take the clothes first. Chen Mengsheng didn't understand Quilan's words, but he didn't dare to ask more, and followed Quilan out of Wangfujing Hotel......

Fangshan is located in the southwest of Beijing, and Chen Mengsheng did not understand why the old housekeeper Qi Bo changed cars here until he arrived in Fangshan......
