Chapter 62: The mural is gone
AFTER XU LI LEFT, NIE YUANBIN ALSO WENT DOWNSTAIRS TO THE LABORATORY, HE DIDN'T LIKE TO BE LIVELY, LEAVING LIU SASSA AND OTHERS STILL MAKING TROUBLE THERE, AND BOY WAS DRAGGED BY THEM AND NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE.
He plugged that mini chip into the computer, and after the snowflakes, a dark shadow.
The person in the image is far away from the camera, and the back looks like he is in his 50s, bowing his head and hunching his waist, not knowing what he is doing. Then, the middle-aged man went out of the door, and the camera followed out.
The picture suddenly cuts off.
Nie Yuanbin instinctively thought it was signal interference, and suddenly became nervous.
But soon, the picture reappeared.
This time, this person appeared on the front and his voice was much louder.
"Done?"
The man in the picture sits on a large leather couch, holding a cigar in his hand, and is burning.
"Of course, I'll do it, don't worry, hehe!"
The voice came from the side of the computer screen and poured into Nie Yuanbin's ears,
'So familiar! β
Nie Yuanbin stared at the screen tightly, for fear of missing any information.
"Send this 300 million worth of diamonds to Xilianmu's hands, and tell him that I have enough money, and the maintenance of the Baruda area will be done for me!"
The man speaks unhurriedly, as if he is dealing with a general matter.
"Okay, let's do it!"
The voiceover agrees very neatly, and it seems that he often does such things.
'Western Union is the head of the illegal armed forces in the Baruda area, and the diamonds are used to equip them with weapons.
It turned out that Western Union was not the initiator of the armed conflict, and there were people behind it.
Who is this person?
What is his purpose?
Why does he support illegal forces? β
Diamond, Western Union, Baruda, plus the familiar voice just now, Nie Yuanbin fell into thought.
The footage continues.
"I have a precious manuscript that I can't find recently, have you seen it?"
The man took a puff on his cigar and asked unhurriedly.
"Manuscripts? What manuscript?
In addition to reporting to you, I spend most of my time in the Ghana hot base supervising the work of the experts and making us more money, which I have never seen before. β
"Burresvon!"
Nie Yuanbin finally heard it.
It turned out that he only came out to do things for the person behind the scenes in the name of the Art Transmission Association.
The Canare base and the Baruda area turned out to be the same behind-the-scenes boss.
They forged artifacts and works of art at the Canaje base, then put them on the market, auctioned them through formal and underground auction houses, obtained large amounts of real money, and then went to the Baruda area to feed the illegal armed forces, seize power, and enslave the local people.
Then through the Baruda region as a transit point, radiate to the periphery, occupy more areas, seize more resources, make yourself stronger and stronger, and finally, you can win a place on the world map.
This is really a huge and well-established illegal system, no wonder when I was in the Ganare base, I couldn't find out the key information, it turned out, it was just the tip of the iceberg, and the real chain of interests was here.
Hmph, since the big boss has appeared, then I'm going to check it out. β
Nie Yuanbin stared at the screen, looking at this well-dressed, charitable-looking, and mustachioed man,
Who would have thought that such a kind and kind person would have such ambition and do such a thing.
Nie Yuanbin thought carefully and was extremely frightened.
But, why does Xu Li have this image? β
Nie Yuanbin's question became stronger and stronger, he took out the phone and immediately dialed Xu Li.
"Dudu-
Toot Toot - "
The phone came out with a blind tone.
Hit it again, still not in the service area.
Xu Li, who was still eating together just now, disappeared in a blink of an eye!
"Tick-"
Nie Yuanbin was about to dial the third time when his phone rang,
"Yuanbin, come to the academy immediately."
Dean Li Jinnan's deep voice came from the phone, and he could feel that something was wrong.
"Okay Dean, I'll be right there."
Hanging up the phone, Nie Yuanbin rushed towards the Dunhuang Painting Academy.
When Nie Yuanbin entered the door, Li Nanjin was watching the surveillance.
"Dean!"
"Here we go!"
Li Nanjin took his eyes off the screen for a moment and turned to look at Nie Yuanbin.
"Well, what's wrong?"
Nie Yuanbin asked.
"In Cave 691, the Bodhisattva Dharma diagram on the west wall has been revealed."
Nie Yuanbin was taken aback.
I just watched the video given by Xu Li, and now that such a big thing has happened, will there be any connection between them? Is there some conspiracy here? Nie Yuanbin suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Li Nanjin looked at Nie Yuanbin, who was thinking intently,
"Yuanbin, do you know anything?"
"I don't have a clue yet, is there any information in the surveillance?"
"I've watched it a few times, just like you see!"
The footage shows that there is nothing but the moonlight and the quiet grotto.
"Did the hidden camera catch anything?"
Nie Yuanbin asked without giving up.
"No, it's all the same picture, from beginning to end, I didn't see anyone passing by."
Li Nanjin paused slightly,
"This matter must be investigated quickly, and there must be no mistakes in the matter of national treasures.
If necessary, you can apply for the highest level of investigation procedure! β
"Okay, understood!"
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
Li Nanjin patted Nie Yuanbin's shoulder and left.
"Tickβ"
Nie Yuanbin's phone rang again.
"Nie, where?"
It was Ouyang Jinglin who called.
Since that night, Ouyang Jinglin seems to have really listened to Nie Yuanbin's words, no longer telling him those inconsequential words, and no longer participating in his life, everything is as if nothing happened.
"In the Academy!"
Nie Yuanbin also returned to the way he used to talk to Ouyang Jinglin.
"It's so late, is there any urgent work?"
Ouyang Jinglin asked.
"No, something happened to the grotto!"
"Huh?
What's up? β
Ouyang Jinglin's tone sounded nervous and anxious, as if his own child had been lost.
"Let's talk!"
"Okay, I'll come right over!"
"Tickβ"
"Nie, where are you?"
MAY'S CALL CAME AGAIN,
'What's going on today, have you discussed it?' β
Nie Yuanbin thought to himself.
"I'm in the art academy!"
"Is there something urgent about being still in the academy so late?"
Nie Yuanbin asked with concern.
"No, it's justβ"
"Nie, I've been waiting for a long time!"
MAY HEARD OUYANG JINGLIN'S VOICE ON THE PHONE.
'It's so late, are they, working together, or ......'
MAY SHUDDERED WHEN HE THOUGHT ABOUT IT, FEELING THAT HE WAS A LITTLE BIASED AT THIS TIME.
"MAY, I'M PROBABLY BUSY LATELY AND CAN'T ACCOMPANY YOU OFTEN, YOU CAN REST WELL AND GO BACK TO THE LAB WHEN YOUR BODY IS FULLY RECOVERED."
"yes, got it!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
"YOU'RE TALKING TO DR. MAY?"
From Nie Yuanbin's concerned tone, it can be judged that on the other end of the phone, except for MAY, it will not be anyone else.
"Hmm!"
Nie Yuanbin responded while continuing to look at the picture on the screen.
"She, what did you say?"
"Nope."
"She's fine."
Ouyang Jinglin intends to end this topic with this sentence.
"Well, I know.
Let's get down to business. β
Unexpectedly, Nie Yuanbin diverted the topic.
"The Bodhisattva Dharma diagram on the west wall of Cave 691 has been revealed!"
"What?
When was this?
Any clues? β
Ouyang Jinglin was stunned and turned his originally slender eyes into jujubes.
"Four hours ago, however, the surveillance did not capture any suspicious people."
"Have you looked closely?
What about hidden surveillance? β
Ouyang Jinglin also came to the screen together and observed carefully.
"I've seen it a few times, but no.
It should have been done by someone who knew us very well. β
"You mean, it's inside of us?"
"Not ruled out."
Nie Yuanbin is very calm, regardless of whether there are clues or not, calm thinking is the first step to solving the problem.
"However, everyone has worked together for so many years, they all know the roots, and the protection and restoration of murals is the common goal of everyone, who will destroy it?
Besides, if you take the mural off the wall, is it to sell cultural relics? β
Ouyang Jinglin asked further.
"I'm not sure.
However, it's certainly not to decorate your own home! β
"So what do we do next?"
"Let's search the surroundings next to each other to see if we can find any clues.
Don't make a noise yet, we'll go now. β
"yes, okay."
Tonight was another sleepless night for both of them.
"Hey, Xinghe, did you sleep?"
MAY HAD AN UNHAPPY TONE.
"You call me and wake up right away even when you fall asleep.
Say, what's the matter? β
"Let's drink!"
"On this big night, lonely men and widows go to drink, aren't you afraid that I will have sex after drinking?"
Luo Xinghe simply seized every opportunity to flirt with MAY.
"you, what nonsense!
How, to go or not? β
MAY NOT BE IN THE MOOD TO JOKE WITH HIM AT THIS TIME.
"Go, of course, it's rare for my friends of life and death to be interested.
I changed my clothes, and here I am. β
"Okay, the ruins bar is waiting for you."
