(24) Investigation team in the sewers

At the entrance of a shopping mall that seemed to be of some size, there were three or two passers-by.

A middle-aged man in a silver robe performs a "levitation technique" and has a copper basin in front of him so that people can give money to them.

He sat cross-legged in the air, one hand reaching forward and holding a wooden stick attached to the snow on the ground.

"Look! Superpowers! The boy shouted at him excitedly.

Chi Qi was also curious, and leaned forward to see the clue.

In the cold snow, there was a big beautiful woman with a hot body, and she was so close to him that the street performer was startled and almost leaked out of his feet.

I saw at a glance that it wasn't some superpower, it was an ancient magic trick that originated in India. The lower part of the stick was actually connected to the ground, with a heavy base buried under the snow, and the upper part of the stick connected to the chair hidden in the robe.

"It's your Asian trick!"

I turned my head and said to Zhou Qing.

"This is common on the streets of any country, and there is really no secret for us who study physics!"

Zhou Qing replied with a smile.

Seeing us say this, Chi Qi lost interest.

It's a trick to deceive people, but I can always find some clues from him, and I already have an idea in mind.

"Dig out the money!"

I shouted that Chi Qi would pay the street performers.

Chi Qi didn't ask me much, so he took out a few large bills and threw them into the copper basin.

The busker nodded in acknowledgement.

Although his face was joyful, he couldn't help but say nothing.

Zhou Qing looked at me puzzled. She was probably confused why I knew it was fake, why I gave money to the artist.

I asked Chi Qi to throw money to the artist, in fact, just to make it easier to ask him about the "Arctic X Investigation Team" next, I said to the artist, "Hey, hello buddy! ”

He nodded at me, and at last he said, "Hello, sir and beautiful young ladies! ”

"Let me ask you, there's a website for Arctic X Survey Team near here, do you know where they work? ”

The strong dragon is not as good as the head snake, you have a bag to inquire everywhere, and you have received my money, and you still don't obediently give some gossip.

He looked us up and down, presumably seeing Chi Qi dressed like a female agent in a sexy leather suit, and asked, "Who are you?" FBI? ”

I shook my head.

"The CIA? District 51? ”

He was wary and asked.

"Aren't they making websites? How could these departments look for them? ”

Hearing him mention the FBI, the CIA, I was puzzled by what a small website had to do with those departments.

"What they're investigating is dangerous! Those departments often look for them! So they hid! ”

The artist whispered to us.

"How's that, can you find them?"

Listening to his tone, it seems that he knows where that Arctic X investigation team is hiding.

He looked at the copper basin in front of him.

"Give money!"

I understood what he meant, and turned to Chiqi again.

Chiki pulls out her pachi

KO wallet, simply threw all the money in the wallet to him. Stuff your empty purse back into the pocket of your leather jacket.

Overjoyed, he simply jumped off his levitating mechanism.

The chair in the robe also leaked out.

"You can do this, I can do it too! Come, take off your robe and I'll have fun! ”

Seeing the chair under the robe, Chi Qi made a fuss that she wanted to play too.

The artist took off his robe and handed it to Chiqi.

Chi Qi wrapped in a robe, sat on a chair, and "floated" in mid-air, and the little boy was beside him to help, "Sister is so amazing!" ”

"Back alley manhole covers, sewers!"

The artist leaned close to my ear and said.

A website that opens its doors to do business actually works in the sewers. If the artist didn't lie to me, it means that the matter they investigated did carry some weight.

"Looks like you're doing a much better job than we do! You don't have to talk about the bottles and cans in the lab all day long, you can still have so much fun! ”

Seeing that Chi Qi was having fun, Zhou Qing lamented the tedium of his work.

"Envy, huh? Then stay with me forever! I'll pay you! ”

I took the opportunity to leave Zhou Qing.

"That's not going to work! I still have my mom to take care of! Can't stay in the U.S. with you for a long time. ”

Zhou Qing smiled and refused.

"It's no problem to take care of your mother! It's over, maybe the boss will move the mansion back to London! ”

I said with a hippie smile on my face, although it was nonsense, but my boss could really do it when it came to moving the building back to London.

Coming to the manhole cover in the back alley, we looked down.

This manhole cover is indeed different from ordinary manhole covers, with a few more hidden locks.

How can this be difficult for a few of us?

Without waiting for Zhou Qing, a doctor of physics, to use the principles of mechanics to open it, Chi Qi removed the hidden lock of the manhole cover with three strokes and five divisions by two.

Lift the manhole cover and leak out a staircase.

Chi Qi turned on the lighting of her mobile phone and led the way.

The little boy followed behind her, clutching the corner of her coat.

Going down the stairs, the space inside slowly became spacious, and I saw the lights inside.

"Police? We're surrounded? Don't shoot! ”

A panicked voice came from inside.

"Don't be nervous, it's not the police! It's the customer! We're here to bring you a boy with memories of a past life! ”

I had an idea and lied about being a customer to find out what they were doing.

Only then did the man put his mind at ease, and slowly walked out of the corner, a total of three people.

We shook hands and they invited us to the office for a detailed talk.

The office is still dimly lit.

After all, it was a basement, and the damp and rancid smell was very pungent.

Chi Qi and Zhou Qing pinched their noses.

"The environment is worse, please bear more!"

The three were also a little embarrassed.

"How did you get to this point! Work in the sewers! ”

I always speak directly and don't save face.

The taller of the three looked at us awkwardly.

"There is no way, the things we investigate and report are very controlled by the government." 、

He shook his head helplessly.

"You've got a mystery too?"

He immediately asked. Apparently what I just said was the customer's words worked.

"Yes!"

I gestured to the British boy behind Chi Qi.

"Big news for you! But I'm not in a hurry about him, I first want to know, are all the alien sightings they investigated real? Didn't you find someone to pretend to attract attention? ”

I changed the subject and first explored their reality and matter.

"If we just made some fake news to make some money, we wouldn't be here! It is because the reported events are true, and the government wants to block those news, that we are banned from investigation again and again! ”

The tall man sighed helplessly.

"Are there any alien sightings or UFO sightings?"

I asked while the iron was hot.

The tall filing cabinet pulled out a stack of papers.

"There are just a couple of new sightings! We managed to finish the interview! ”

Hearing him say 'it was not easy' to finish, I instinctively called Chi Qi, "Give money!" ”

"The money is gone, let's transfer it by phone!"

As she spoke, she reached for the tall man's phone.

The tall man obviously has never seen such a formal style as ours, and he has to pay for what is wrong.

He froze in place.

Before he could react, Chi Qi had already taken her phone and transferred him $200,000.

"What the hell are you doing?"

The tall man asked.

"It doesn't matter what you do! If you have this kind of sighting record in the future, you can sell it to me! ”

I patted the corner of the table and said happily.

"We weren't supposed to sell them..."

Tall people are obviously a little uncomfortable with our style of doing things with money and 'smashing people'.

"Isn't this going back to you for news! This kid really has memories of his past life, you can interview him! ”

I pushed the 'pilot' boy down beside him and interrupted him.

"Past life memories? Well, well! ”

The tall man pretended to be tall and said, and finally agreed.

"Wait a minute, I'll let the secretary bind it!"

He didn't give us the wad of paper in his hand right away.

"I don't want interviews! I don't want it! I don't want it! ”

The boy obviously didn't like me pushing him out as an "exchange".

"You're good! Obedient! ”

Chi Qi leaned over and stroked the boy's hair gently like a mother.

"The more I listen to this tone, the more ...

Zhou Qing wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong?"

I turned my head to look at Zhou Qing.

"Nothing!"

Zhou Qing said softly.

Chi Qi coaxed the boy and asked the boy to follow the three to the studio for an interview.

"You guys are really rich, and if you don't agree with each other, you will take money and smash it!"

Zhou Qing sighed.

"Who told us Boss to have a lot of money!"

Chi Qi is used to my way of doing things, and she cooperates with me seamlessly.

"Solving problems with money will save some unnecessary links and exchanges!"

This is the experience I have learned from years of investigating mysterious events.
