Chapter Seventy-Eight: De Novo Analysis
The analysis had to be carried out from the beginning, Wei Chiran and Fang Xunyi found a pen and paper, and began to write down some key characters, words and numbers on paper.
First of all, the jungle and the dust, the land beneath their feet, was built in the fifties of the last century, in 1955, and was built by three key people, the building owner, the construction consultant, and Mr. Tingbei.
Fang Xunyi wrote on the paper: "The construction boss is named Fei Hanchi, the construction consultant is called Wang Gen, and Mr. Tingbei is named Su Li, and the only one of the three who understands this piece of dust should be Su Li." ”
Wei Chiran nodded and said, "If Wang Gen didn't lie, he is really from a family that has studied feng shui for generations, then this land should be no problem from the perspective of feng shui." ”
Fang Xunyi nodded and said, "Yes, it should be so." ”
First of all, Su Li stopped it, but Fei Hanchi didn't listen to it, who knew that there was a strange sound when digging the foundation, that is, the sound of the ground.
Wei Chiran carefully recalled: "Generally speaking, the phenomenon of ground ringing appeared on the eve of the earthquake, I checked the information, in 1955, there was no record of an earthquake at that time, so why did the ground sound occur, this is the first question." ”
Fang Xunyi looked at the words he had recorded: "The second question is Su Li's identity, how did he know all this, and what is the profession of Mr. Tingbei?" Although the information gave an explanation, it felt like Mr. Tingbei was a person with special abilities. ”
In 1960, the Diming Building was completed, and Fei Hanchi felt that the building was too wasteful, after all, he invested money, so he was ready to sell the Diming Building.
Wei Chiran looked at Fang Xun and recalled: "The construction of the Diming Tower was completed in 1960, and the sale was in 1965, that is to say, this building was unattended in the past five years, until Fei Hanchi met Xiang Jingtian. ”
Fang Xunyi checked his mobile phone, and then said: "My file here says that it was Xiang Jingtian who took the initiative to find Fei Hanchi and wanted to acquire Diming Tower, and Fei Hanchi immediately agreed. ”
Wei Chi was stunned, because he didn't have this information, and he didn't tell him in early summer, did Hou Wan do it on purpose? deliberately retained some details, and just told Fang Xunyi.
Or is this a test of oneself?
Wei Chiran didn't ask Fang Xunyi, and continued to analyze: "Fei Hanchi sold Diming Tower for money, and Xiang Jingtian bought Diming Tower because of his hobby. ”
Fang Xunyi said: "Yes, the archives show that Xiang Jingtian bought a lot of strange and impractical buildings in the territory of country T, and most of them have bizarre stories, such as murderous houses and haunted houses. ”
This information did not have any information.
Wei Chiran said: "It seems that Xiang Jingtian is a businessman with a unique hobby. ”
Fang Xunyi nodded: "It should be a quirk, right?" ”
Wei Chi pondered: "His motive for buying Diming Tower is a hobby, and what does his hobby come from?" This is the third question that needs to be answered. ”
After Xiang Jingtian bought Diming Tower, he immediately renovated and arranged the building, which took about half a year.
Wei Chiran asked, "Did Xiang Jingtian decorate and arrange other special buildings he bought?" ”
Wei Chiran looked at his mobile phone and said: "The information shows that the other special buildings he bought in country T have not been touched at all, and after they were bought, they were just placed there." ”
Wei Chiran said: "Then this is the fourth question, why did Xiang Jingtian not arrange and decorate other special buildings, but he only paid so much attention to the Diming Tower, and he still had to move in?" ”
In 1966, Xiang Jingtian led his family of 7 to live in Diming Building, and in 1967, Xiang Jingtian's family disappeared, but before his disappearance, he made a will, if he died, or disappeared for a year, Diming Building would be owned by his younger brother Xiang Jingdi.
Fang Xunyi added: "In the will, he also left all his family property to his younger brother Xiang Jingdi, and here is a clue that I think is very crucial. ”
Wei Chiran immediately asked, "What clue?" ”
Fang Xunyi raised his mobile phone and showed Wei Chiran the two old black and white photos on the information: "This is a photo of Xiang Jingtian and Xiang Jingdi brothers." ”
Wei Chiran looked at his phone and said, "Don't these two look like brothers?" ”
Fang Xun recalled: "That's right, they are not brothers, Xiang Jingtian is an adopted son, and Xiang Jingdi is the biological flesh and blood of the Xiang family." ”
What the? Is Xiang Jingtian an adopted son? That's weird.
Wei Chiran asked: "Since Xiang Jingtian is an adopted son, why should the property of the ancestors of the Xiang family be left to the adopted son, not to the biological flesh and blood?" ”
Fang Xunyi explained: "The reason is very simple, in their previous generation, the Xiang family was an ordinary family, and the reason why the Xiang family was developed was because of Xiang Jingtian, so Xiang Jingtian's wealth was created by himself and had nothing to do with the Xiang family. ”
Wei Chi said: "I see, so ......"
Why didn't Hou Wan tell Chu Xia and himself these information, but told Fang Xunyi? Do you want to tell yourself that if you want to succeed, you must cooperate with Fang Xunyi?
No, Hou Wan wanted to use these means to tie himself to Fang Xunyi, after all, if Wei Chiran was really fighting alone, then the lone army would not be able to grasp him, and the more friends and friendships he had around him, the easier it would be to be restrained.
In 1968, a year after Xiang Jingtian's family disappeared from Diming Tower, Xiang Jingdi received the inheritance and obtained the ownership of Diming Tower, and he immediately began to investigate the reward.
Until 1978, in the past ten years, a total of 26 people entered the Diming Tower to investigate, and all of these 26 people disappeared without exception.
Fang Xunyi handed the mobile phone to Wei Chiran: "There are details of 26 people on it. ”
Wei Chiran looked carefully, these 26 people all have any profession and identity, there are street gangsters, detectives of that era, scholars, and even religious people.
By 1978, with the addition of Xiang Jingtian's family, the number of missing persons had become 33.
Wei Chiran said: "The fifth question is, who is Xiang Jingtian and why can his ability be so strong?" can make the Xiang family rich and rival the country, and the sixth question is that after Xiang Jingtian disappeared, why did Xiang Jingdi offer a high reward to find his brother, is it just because of family affection? ”
At that time, because of the large number of missing people, the police in country T forbade Xiang Jingdi to offer another reward, and they would investigate.
As a result, the T country police sent an elite team, a total of 5 people, and made two years of preparation, before entering the Diming Building in 1980 to start the investigation.
Wei Chiran asked: "The police here shouldn't be from the General Bureau of Chinatown, right?" ”
Fang Xunyi shook his head and said, "No, it's the Police Department of Country T." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "Why do you want to prepare for two years?" What have they been doing in the past two years? ”
Fang Xun recalled: "Like us now, investigating the history of the Ming Tower, it took two years to visit and investigate, and finally found out that the jungle where the original Ming Tower was located, during World War II, there was a tragic battle, the Japanese army against the Chinese Expeditionary Force, it was a battle to prevent the Japanese reinforcements, the battle was very tragic, but the battle stopped after four hours, and then whether it was the expeditionary force or the Japanese army, all the soldiers on both sides were missing. ”
Wei Chiran was surprised: "Missing? That's when there was a disappearance? ”
Fang Xun recalled: "Yes, this is the information obtained by the police department of country T after going to Japan and Taiwan, China to investigate. ”
Wei Chi said: "This is the seventh question......
On the fifth day after these five elites entered the Diming Tower, they all disappeared.
Before the disappearance, the five people had inexplicable contradictions, slandered each other, and even reported to their superiors.
Fang Xunyi looked at the information and said: "When these 5 people were selected by the police department, they came from different departments, they were all highly educated, and they knew how to work as a team, and they also knew how to control their emotions. ”
Wei Chiran took a deep breath: "33 plus 5, the number of missing people finally climbed to 38." ”
Fang Xun recalled: "In the end, it stayed at 38 people. ”
Wei Chiran said: "After that, except for Xiang Jingdi, no one has entered, and after he got a terminal illness, he ignored the objections and entered the Diming Building to live and investigate by himself." ”
Fang Xunyi recorded in the notebook: "The eighth question, what happened to the police. ”
Wei Chi nodded and said: "Then the 9th question is that Xiang Jingtian, who was terminally ill, originally didn't live for 3 months, why did he continue to live for two years after living in Diming Tower, and what happened to him in these two years?" And why did it come out two years later? Why do you want to make a will immediately after you come out and then die? ”
Xiang Jingdi dared to enter Diming Tower, the reason should be that he knew that he would not live long, but why did he live for two more years after living in? Didn't die until 1982?
"Question 10." Wei Chi continued to analyze, "Why did he leave a thirty percent inheritance?" Attract people to come back to the Ming Tower? ”
In 1982, Xiang Jingdi's three children were still young, so the investigation was not initiated, but the 30% inheritance was too tempting.
The eldest Xiang Jin is the most capable of the three siblings, he single-handedly turned the Xiang family into a business empire, but his sister Xiang Yu and younger brother Xiang Man are very ordinary, although they inherited part of the family business, but did not expand the family business, on the contrary, they kept their assets shrinking.
Wei Chiran asked: "Xiang Jin is the pillar of the Xiang family, and Xiang Yu and Xiang Man can be said to be losers, according to the information I have at hand, Xiang Yu and Xiang Man are about to be unable to hold on, so I have to start investigating Di Minglou, in addition, do you have the original copy of Xiang Jingdi's will?" ”
Fang Xun recalled: "The original will is nothing special, but this investigation was only started after the three siblings consulted. ”
Wei Chi said: "I guess, the three of them decided to send people to each enter the investigation, and the number of people cannot exceed three people, because there are only three rooms on each floor, and the people sent by each person can only occupy one of the floors, isn't that so?" ”
Fang Xun recalled: "That's right, and the floor is determined by lottery, the eldest Xiang Jin is drawn to the second floor, the second Xiang Yu is drawn to the first floor, and the third is drawn to the third floor." ”
Wei Chiran said: "Why did Xiang Jin hire Bao Junhao and hire me, an IT nerd?" What does that mean? Why did the other two hire only one person, was it because of financial resources? ”
Fang Xun recalled: "Xiang Man promised me that as long as I found out, he would give me five million dollars. ”
Wei Chiran smiled and said: "I am 100,000 a month, if I find out, I will be given a total of 3 million." ”
It seems that Xiang Man is much more generous than Xiang Jin.
