Chapter 186: Check the news
The hook-nosed man stared at me for a long time with a sharp eye, and the atmosphere seemed to freeze, and Zhang Qiang and I stared at him nervously, leaning together unconsciously.
Zhang Qiang's face was written with regret, he knew that he shouldn't have thrown the knife at the door, how good was it to defend himself? After a period of silence, I took the initiative to speak, "May I ask if this is Azan Luculent's home?" ”
We're here to find someone, and we don't intend to get into trouble with anyone, and while it's rude to break into someone's house casually, as long as we explain it clearly, we'll be fine.
The man on the other side was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand what I was saying, I quickly touched Zhang Qiang, and Zhang Qiang immediately repeated my words in Burmese, probably because the confrontation atmosphere was more tense, and his tone was a little stammering.
This is not to blame Zhang Qiang, this guy's momentum is too strong, even my Dragon Spirit Gu feels the pressure.
The man nodded, looked at us very calmly, and said a string of words in a strange tone, Zhang Qiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and took the initiative to come forward to contact the person, after a period of negotiation with a gesture, the man's eyes looked at us a lot more convergent, no longer so sharp, he said a few words lightly, "Is Sangtong looking for you?" ”
Zhang Qiang hurriedly said yes, and then the other party smiled, took the initiative to reach out to shake him, and said in a strange tone, "Hello, I'm Azan Luculent, and I've been waiting for this day for several years." ”
Zhang Qiang translated all his words to me, and then took me up to get acquainted, and Azan Langkun shook my hand with him in the same posture, and my fingers touched him, and I felt that the palm of this person's hand was as hard as tree bark, and the knuckles were slender and strong, and it was hard to hold in his hand, like holding a forked branch.
Azan Luculent lit the candle, the atmosphere was not so gloomy, the furnishings in his living room were very simple, there was not even a chair, there were a few futons placed near the corner of the wall, Azan Langculent strode there and sat down, and then stretched out his hand to point to another futon, and his tone was very simple, "Sit!" ”
Zhang Qiang and I exchanged glances and sat down across from him.
Azan Luculent communicated with Zhang Qiang in stiff Thai and inquired about the purpose of our visit.
Zhang Qiang said it roughly, in exchange for a moment of silence at Azan Luculem, he seemed to whisper something and then said, "So you are not sure if the person was lost in Yangon?" ”
Zhang Qiang said with a smile, "Although there is no tangible evidence to show Brother Yong's whereabouts, Sangtong's analysis should not be wrong, Brother Yong is likely to be lost in Yangon, and he should have been in contact with Ayi Pingdu before he was lost, so we came all the way to ......."
Azan Langkun interrupted Zhang Qiang's words, and looked sideways at me again, his nose moved lightly, as if he sniffed at me, and then said in a hoarse voice, "Young man, I feel something unusual in you, you are also a mage?" ”
I couldn't hide this little secret in front of the real head descender, so I generously admitted it. Azan Luculent looked at me with an ambiguous attitude, and his stiff face showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, which was particularly weird.
Zhang Qiang hurriedly said, "Master, my friend is ......."
Azan Luculent told him not to be nervous, since we were introduced by Sangtong, he would not attack us, and hopefully said to me, "Can you let me take a look?" ”
Looking at Azan Luculent's eyes full of urgency and expectation, I smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry, I can't control it for the time being." ”
Azan Langkun's disappointed expression flickered, and he regained his indifference, "I can help you, but I am only responsible for working with people, and you must do the investigation yourself." ”
I hurriedly thanked him, the first time I came to Southeast Asia, where I was unfamiliar with my life, Zhang Qiang and I didn't want to ask too much of people, after all, it was the first time we met, and the temper of these black-clothed Azan was so weird, if we offended people, maybe we wouldn't even be able to get out of this house.
Zhang Qiang asked rhetorically, "The investigation will be investigated by us personally, but how will we notify you when the time comes?" ”
I was also very curious about this question, I saw Azan Langkun take out a small transparent jar from his pocket, there was a milky white worm egg at the bottom of the jar, smaller than an adult's fingernail cap, he pointed to the worm egg in the jar and said, "This is specially developed by me to pass on the credit, I named it Yinazha, once you need to contact me, throw off the jar, the eggs will hatch immediately when they come into contact with fresh air, and I can sense its position with the black method." ”
Zhang Qiang cautiously closed the transparent glass jar and got up to say goodbye to him.
Azan Luculent let out a "hmm", as if he couldn't lift his spirits, and didn't get up to see us off.
Walking out of Azan Langkun's home, the pressure that shrouded me completely disappeared, and I wiped my cold sweat while saying, "Sure enough, the head descender is not easy to deal with, and Azanji is indifferent enough, I didn't expect Azan Langkun to be even more difficult to get along with than him." ”
Zhang Qiang explained, "It's different, Azanji is a Chinese after all, although he went to Southeast Asia to learn the black law mantra very early, but he is still Chinese in his bones, and he recognizes his compatriots, Azan Langkun is different, he is a native and native, and there is no friendship with us, plus Azan in black has been dealing with yin things since he was a child, rarely has contact with living people, and his personality is cold and withdrawn. ”
I let out a long breath and then said worriedly, "Although Azan Luculent promised to help, we have to do the investigation ourselves, and this ghost place is completely different from the environment we know, where should we start investigating?" ”
Zhang Qiang said with a smile, "Brother, you don't know anything, there are many various forces on the streets of Yangon, there is a profession called 'snake head', which is also a broker in our country, you can ask them for any news, as long as you can afford to pay." ”
I smiled wryly and said, "Do you have enough money?"
Zhang Qiang immediately changed his expression, and said with a shy lard face, "Isn't there still you." The exchange ratio of the Chinese and Burmese currencies is 1 to 227, and the black market is even more valuable, saving Brother Yong is not just my business, don't you keep saying that Brother Yong is your great benefactor, and it is worth spending some money for your benefactor! ”
Well, to put it mildly, I still paid for it, I really asked this question, I knew that this iron was a hair!
When I returned to the Yangon hotel, it was already dark, we walked into the hotel where we stayed, Zhang Qiang asked me for a bank card, I cautiously covered my wallet and asked him what to do with the bank card, Zhang Qiang said that he wanted to take advantage of the dark to go out to inquire about some news, the local smugglers recognize money and do not recognize people, and it is easy to do things by spending money.
I said why don't you use your own, if you want me to pay for it, you can take me out to investigate!
Zhang Qiang said with a bitter face, "Brother, don't you think it's too eye-catching for us **** people to walk on the street and ask people everywhere about the news of the snakehead?" You don't even know Burmese, so what's the use of keeping up? The local underworld forces are all colluding together, what if our identities are exposed, Ayi Pingdu knows that someone is investigating him, how do you think he will feel? ”
I thought about it, so I reluctantly took out my credit card, my credit card has a global network, and it can be swiped in most cities in Asia, but the limit is limited, I reminded Zhang Qiang not to max out the card.
Zhang Qiang smiled and said, "That's right, don't worry, my brother will definitely help you save money." ”
