Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Strange Death (Part II)
Guan Beihe said bluntly: "I now feel that the fate of you and your son is tied together, and there must be something in you that the Japanese are interested in, otherwise, the two of you would have been finished a long time ago." ”
Li Qingxiang finally understood: "I understand, do you want to be sure from me, what else do I know?" I can tell you bluntly, I don't have any other secrets, I guess you already know from that operator, my team members are all dead, I am now the commander of the light pole, and the Chongqing side no longer trusts me, so I let Yefeng replace me, but I don't understand, why did you choose to be our informant? Just because of the money? I don't believe it, you are the Secretary for Security, you are not short of money. ”
Guan Beihe pondered for a moment and said, "Do you know why my code name is called Shaman? ”
Li Qingxiang shook his head and said he didn't know.
Guan Beihe said in a deep voice: "Before Ma Yanqing died, I was also a member of the Xuan Department. ”
Li Qingxiang was shocked, thought for a while, and said, "No wonder you sent Yun Fan to Peach Blossom Lane last time to collect some money, in fact, it was to let him meet Tang Qianlin." ”
Guan Beihe said: "That's right, fortunately, after Ma Yanqing died, he didn't bite me out, after I knew that something happened to Xuanbu, I thought about escaping to Guannei, or going directly to the Soviet Union, but after a night, no one found me, and even ordered me to execute the arrest order, I knew that I was safe." ”
Li Qingxiang asked, "Why are you the only one who is safe?" ”
Guan Beihe said: "The Xuan Department is not Ma Yanqing's, but was established under the emperor's instructions, but not many people know about this matter, except for me, only Ma Yanqing." ”
Li Qingxiang looked at Guan Beihe with disbelieving eyes: "You mean, at some point, you quietly met Pu Yi's kid?" ”
Guan Beihe said: "Pay attention to your words, it is always His Majesty the Emperor of our Manchukuo." ”
Li Qingxiang almost laughed, so he had to nod and say, "Okay, Your Majesty the Emperor." ”
Guan Beihe said again: "His Majesty the Emperor did not receive us personally, it was his cronies who met us. ”
Li Qingxiang asked, "Who?" ”
Guan Beihe said: "Hidden King." ”
Li Qingxiang shook his head: "I've never heard of it." ”
Guan Beihe said: "It's not strange that you haven't heard of it, many people don't know the existence of the Hidden King." ”
Li Qingxiang asked, "Who is the Hidden King?" ”
Guan Beihe shook his head: "I can't tell you that the only person who knows the identity of the Hidden King now is His Majesty the Emperor besides me." ”
Li Qingxiang grabbed the wine bottle on the table and poured himself a glass of wine: "Then what do you want to say?" ”
Guan Beihe said: "The task of our Xuan Department is very simple, that is, to find the Shaman Spirit Palace, revitalize the Qing Dynasty, and modify the national fortune!" ”
Li Qingxiang's hand pouring wine stopped: "Are you dreaming again?" ”
Guan Beihe sneered: "I thought you would be different from others, but I didn't expect you to be an ordinary man." ”
Li Qingxiang drank the glass of wine: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll take my leave!" ”
Guan Beihe didn't stop Li Qingxiang, just sat there and said slowly: "Chongqing's order is very clear, no matter what, you can't let the Japanese profit, you should be clear, right?" ”
Li Qingxiang stopped, turned to look at Guan Beihe: "Are you giving me orders?" ”
Guan Beihe shook his head: "No, I'm just reminding you that I have a common enemy with you, at least we have to get ahead of the Japanese and find the Shaman Spirit Palace, as for what happens in the future, we will talk about it then." ”
Li Qingxiang sat down again when he heard this, and Guan Beihe took the initiative to pour him a glass of wine: "After drinking this glass of wine, let's have a good chat." ”
Li Qingxiang looked at the wine glass in Guan Beihe's hand and hesitated.
In the lobby of the Anjia Mansion in Gongrong Village, Tang Qianlin and Li Yunfan were interrogating the servants.
There were five servants in the An family, a driver, a gardener, a cook and two female handymen.
The driver was the first to be excluded because he was on holiday today and went out in the morning.
"Call the gardener in." Tang Qianlin instructed the police outside the door.
Soon the gardener was brought in, stood there and bowed: "Sir, I am the gardener. ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "What have you done today?" ”
The gardener thought for a moment and said, "I have been busy in the garden since I got up in the morning, but in fact I have been busy, eating with other people at noon, and sitting in the garden basking in the sun after dinner. ”
Li Yunfan asked, "Which garden?" Front yard or backyard? ”
The gardener said, "Backyard." ”
Li Yunfan asked again: "Then did you see President An enter the hexagonal pavilion?" ”
The gardener said: "I saw it, at noon, after President An had eaten, he entered the hexagonal pavilion and didn't come out until the young lady found out that he was dead." ”
Li Yunfan looked at Tang Qianlin, and Tang Qianlin asked, "Does President An have to go to that hexagonal pavilion every day?" ”
The gardener nodded: "Yes, as long as he is fine, he is in the Hexagon Pavilion, anyway, I have been here since then, he does this every day, without exception." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "You go down and call the cook in." ”
After the gardener left, the trembling cook walked in, looking very responsible, and didn't dare to look up at Tang Qianlin and Li Yunfan.
Li Yunfan asked: "Cook, let me ask you, what have you done today?" Have you met President Ahn? ”
The cook nodded again and again: "I have seen the master twice today, once at breakfast in the morning, and once at lunch, and I have never seen him again." ”
Tang Qianlin asked, "Then what have you done?" ”
The cook said: "I didn't do anything, no, I'm in the kitchen, except for buying vegetables, I don't usually go out, and I don't have time, in addition to cooking for the lord and the lady, I also have to cook for other people, and I'm very busy." ”
Li Yunfan thought for a while, and then asked, "Doesn't President An drink tea?" ”
The cook nodded: "He drinks tea, but except when there are guests coming, he is basically in that hexagonal pavilion at other times, and he doesn't let us in." ”
Tang Qianlin asked again: "Is there anything special today?" ”
The cook wondered, "Something special?" ”
Li Yunfan said: "It's just a different thing than usual." ”
The cook thought for a while, looked up sharply and said, "At noon today, the master ordered several dishes, all of which he usually doesn't eat." ”
Li Yunfan and Tang Qianlin glanced at each other, and Tang Qianlin asked, "Don't you usually eat it?" What do you mean? ”
The cook said: "The old man usually likes to eat pot-wrapped meat, ground three fresh, fat sausages, and sauerkraut and white meat. However, when it was almost noon today, he suddenly told me that he wanted to eat Jiuzhuan large intestine, vinegar and pepper fish, yellow stewed chicken nuggets and cabbage and tofu soup, by the way, and asked me to buy a bottle of soju. ”
Tang Qianlin thought for a while and asked, "Where is your master?" ”
The cook said: "Northeast people, no, they are Manchurians." ”
Li Yunfan asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
The cook shook her head: "No." ”
Tang Qianlin asked the cook to go down, and called the two miscellaneous female workers, and asked them about the cleaning of the hexagonal pavilion, unexpectedly, the two female workers had never entered the hexagonal pavilion, and they were not allowed to enter that place, and the cleaning inside was all the responsibility of Miss Anran.
After asking all the servants, Tang Qianlin asked Li Yunfan: "I think the strangest thing is the meal at noon and the hexagonal pavilion." ”
Li Yunfan said: "Yes, you see, President An usually eats pot-wrapped meat and Disanxian These are Northeast dishes, and what Jiuzhuan fat sausage and vinegar pepper fish to eat at noon today are all Shandong dishes, although when they broke into the Guandong, Shandong people did bring their eating habits over, but after so many years, they are basically almost integrated, besides, President An is from the Northeast, how could he suddenly want to eat Shandong food?" ”
Tang Qianlin frowned and said, "When he did this, it made me feel that he really felt like he committed suicide." ”
Li Yunfan said: "Don't forget, he's in a wheelchair." ”
While the two were talking, Mo Di led a man in his thirties with a suitcase and walked in.
Mo Di said, "Two, this is the doctor I told you about before. ”
The doctor smiled and stretched out his hand: "My surname is Bu, my name is Hongyi, and I am a doctor from Gongrong Village, a Western doctor. ”
Tang Qianlin and Li Yunfan shook hands with Bu Hongyi respectively, at this time they didn't know that this Bu Hongyi was the CCP agent that Yefeng and the Soviet agents wanted to disguise themselves to find.
If Li Yunfan knew that the comrade standing in front of him was his comrade at this time, I am afraid that his heart would be excited.
Tang Qianlin said: "Doctor Bu, let's go and see President An's body now." ”
Mo Di hurriedly said, "When you were asking, I had already taken Doctor Bu there. ”
Bu Hongyi said: "After I checked, I determined that President An died of suffocation, that is, hanging, and there were no other external injuries on his body, and the time of death was about three hours ago, that is, around six o'clock in the evening." ”
Li Yunfan frowned: "No external injuries?" That is, no one forced him to hang himself? ”
Bu Hongyi shook his head: "I can't judge this, I'm just a doctor, not a policeman." ”
Tang Qianlin asked again: "Is President An poisoned?" Or are you taking other medications? ”
Bu Hongyi shook his head: "This needs to be autopsied, the deceased's blood has coagulated, and now it is impossible to draw blood for testing." ”
Tang Qianlin looked at Mo Di: "Mr. Mo, if you want to investigate this case clearly, I think it must be autopsied." ”
Before Mo Di could speak, a girl in her early twenties appeared at the door and said sternly: "I don't agree with the autopsy!" I will not allow you to touch my father's body again! ”
Everyone looked at the girl standing in the doorway with long hair and dress, small and cute, but with anger on her face. Needless to say, she must be An Guotao's daughter An Ran.
Mo Di stepped forward and introduced: "She is President An's daughter An Ran. Enron, these two are ......"
An Ran interrupted Mo Di's words: "I don't care who they are!" In short, I do not agree with the autopsy of my father's body. ”
Tang Qianlin calmly explained: "Miss An, if you want to investigate the truth about your father's murder, an autopsy is a necessary process. ”
Tang Qianlin said and looked at Bu Hongyi, hoping that Bu Hongyi, who was a doctor, would say something, but Bu Hongyi didn't say a word, looking a little embarrassed.
Mo Di also hurriedly said: "An Ran, I know your current mood, but ......"
An Ran turned to Mo Di: "Uncle Mo, you can't understand my current mood!" ”
An Ran's words were said in Japanese, which made Tang Qianlin stunned, and Li Yunfan was also puzzled, because An Ran spoke Japanese very fluently, like a native of Japan.
An Ran stepped aside and stepped out of the door: "Now, please leave my house." ”
When Mo Di was about to say something, Tang Qianlin raised his hand to stop him, looked at An Ran and said, "Miss An, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, goodbye." ”
After Tang Qianlin finished speaking, he and the others left the An family.
