Chapter 198: The Scorpion Appears, Is It Him?
But it's not easy to ask at this time, because Yi Fan's mind is all about "big things". As soon as he put down his luggage, he didn't allow me to wash my face first, so he got to the point and handed me a photo......
"Phoenix crown? Wow, that's beautiful! I exclaimed.
In fact, it is a bit against the will, because the phoenix crown on the photo is not bright at all, after all, it is a cultural relic, after the burial of loess, it is normal to lose its brilliance.
But the shape is very unique, much better than the phoenix crown of those ancient brides on TV, only to see the gem in the center of the phoenix crown engraved with a small seal "殇" word.
At this time, I didn't know that the marriage stone that Yi Fan threw away also had the exact same word "mourning" on it. He wouldn't tell me, and he didn't know that there was a word "night" on my marriage stone.
"This is the phoenix crown created by the Night Wind Knight for Princess Liusa, whose original name was 'Liusa'. After the death of the Night Wind Knight, she changed her name to 'Night Wanderer' and embroidered the word 'Night' on the Kasumi Veil that Night Wind made for her. ”
Yi Fan said and lit a cigarette and explained: "After that, the princess killed herself in front of the tomb of Night Wind, and King Liusa was always reluctant to bury the two together, so Night Wind's tomb is in Jiaye Mountain, and the tomb of the princess is ......."
"In Happy Valley?" I immediately answered and was pleasantly surprised.
Yi Fan nodded and continued to explain: "In 98, the gang stole the princess's mound and dug up the phoenix crown and the xiawei. But because the Liusa Dynasty has not been written into the annals of history, the price of Xia Wei was not speculated when it was resold, so Fengguan has not made a move. In the past ten years, they coerced Professor Qiu to stir up the Liusa Dynasty in the underground collecting world, causing the value of the phoenix crown to soar. Finally, it's time to make a move in the next few days! ”
After hearing this, I jumped up from my chair excitedly: "The snake man is about to appear?" Who is the buyer? ”
"How are you sure the snake man is the seller?" Yi Fan flicked the cigarette ash and stared at me gloomily, like a temptation, more like a question.
I was confused, "Who else could the seller be if she wasn't her?" ”
I am very puzzled, it is the ether group that robs and smuggles tombs, this is what you Yi Fan told me!
Seeing this, Yi Fan guessed that Ma Ke would definitely not tell me about her "snake husband", Xia Luo was an uninformed outsider after all. I couldn't bear to ask any more, so I softened my tone and sighed:
"Alas, to be honest, I haven't figured out the truth about the tomb robbery and smuggling in Happy Valley ten years ago." He flicked the cigarette ash, frowned and pondered, "I'm only sure that the phoenix crown has always been in Lu Sheng's hands, and he is the seller!" ”
I was even more puzzled: "Lu Sheng? How is he? ”
Yi Fan hooked his lips and smiled, and then told me in detail about his and Amy's adventures in the past few days......
Talk about this in two chapters, about Leng Du Wolf and the confidante in his life: Amy is as tall as water!
……
It is said that on November 2, after Dave (i.e., Xia Wenshan) was taken back to Ancheng by Amy, Yi Fan interrogated him and found nothing. Because of his identity "fake road opening" (in fact, because he is Xia Luo's biological father), Yi Fan didn't dare to do anything with him, so he had to choose to stalk secretly after "letting the tiger go back to the mountain".
After returning to Beijing, he watched for several days, and Xia Wenshan basically cheated on eating and drinking at Lu's house. Except for hanging out in underground casinos, nightclubs, and bars, I haven't done anything serious.
But it still made Yi Fan discover an important clue!
On the evening of November 5th, Xia Wenshan didn't drive, but took the subway and poured several buses, and mysteriously came to the Bird's Nest Square with a chaotic crowd. It seems to be inadvertent, but in fact, he met a mysterious man in black wearing a mask, who was dressed in black, and the mask and hat covered himself tightly, looking like a killer or the leader of an illegal organization......
Yi Fan immediately guessed that Xia Wenshan had something to hide from Lu Sheng, a scumbag like him couldn't drive a car, and he still went to squeeze the subway bus? It is clear that he wants to get rid of Lu Sheng, the car is provided by the Lu family, and it may be equipped with a tracker!
Because the Bird's Nest Square is empty and there are a lot of people, it is not easy to eavesdrop. What Xia Wenshan said to the man in black, Yi Fan didn't know, but he felt that the figure of the man in black was very familiar, like someone he knew, and he couldn't remember who it was for a while......
After Xia Wenshan and the man in black separated, Yi Fan asked Amy to continue to follow Xia Wenshan, while he quietly followed the man in black.
After following all the way, there was nothing to gain, the man in black was very cautious, and there were subways and buses along the way, which circled Beijing City for most of the time, and finally disappeared from his sight.
But Amy has a lot to gain!
After Yi Fan returned to the hotel, Amy told him that not long after the man in black left, Xia Wenshan pointed in the direction where the man in black left and scolded:
"Hmph, what's the fuck! Sooner or later, I'll swallow you scorpion! ”
Yi Fan immediately determined: the scorpion was the superior of the locust Xia Wenshan in the Aether Group. And Xia Wenshan's god mysteriously threw off Lu Sheng's tracking to meet the scorpion, which is enough to show that Lu Sheng and the snake man have both cooperation and confrontation.
So the next day, November 6, Yi Fan and Amy continued to keep an eye on Xia Wenshan. During the day, there was nothing unusual until I came to the Houhai bar at night......
"Did you say he'd go see the scorpion tonight?" Amy asked Yi Fan quietly.
"Maybe. Hmph, if they meet again, I will definitely expose the true face of the scorpion! Yi Fan said angrily, in fact, he already knew the identity of the scorpion in his heart.
If you guess correctly, that man is Amy's Gao Ruoshui's father - Gao Zhanxiang!
Given that Amy didn't seem to know about it yet, Yi Fan didn't break the matter.
At this time, I only heard Amy nervously say, "There's a movement in that guy!" ”
Yi Fan looked over, and sure enough!
I saw Dave Xia Wenshan at the bar answering a phone call, throwing the beauty aside and leaving in a hurry, and Yi Fan and the others quickly followed.
"Don't drive again? Sitting for rent? Amy wondered.
"Definitely going to meet the scorpion! Tonight is sure to be a big catch! Yi Fan said excitedly.
Looking at his eagle-sharp eyes, Amy was deeply infatuated, such a perfect man had already taken her heart. Over the years, she has rejected all suitors for him, including many wealthy people, but ......
After years of giving, he is still not hers.
"Look, he's getting off!" Amy was stunned.
In front of an old alley, the car couldn't drive in, and I saw Xia Wenshan get out of the taxi. Yi Fan asked Amy to stay in the car and wait, and got out of the car by himself and secretly followed Xia Wenshan.
When I arrived at the corner of the alley, I saw that Xia Wenshan really made an appointment with the scorpion!
Tonight's location is a good place, there are no people in the alley, and it is so hidden, Yi Fan found a very good place, and the two of them are very close, and they can hear the conversation between the two.
"Did you find something?"
The scorpion's voice was very low, and Yi Fan immediately determined that he was Gao Zhanxiang, Yi Haicang's assistant before. After Yi Haicang's accident last year, Gao Zhanxiang resigned, and when he heard that he returned to the United States to enjoy his life, he never thought that he was actually working for the "Ether Group"?
"How can it be so fast? You also know that Lu Sheng doesn't believe me at all, can you let me find clues so easily? ”
Xia Wenshan pouted.
"Listen, you only have one month, and if you don't have any results before the 15th, I'll send you to Hades!" The scorpion threatens viciously.
"Don't mind, there's something to discuss."
Xia Wenshan smiled cheekily, "Things are hard to find, but clues are not difficult to find!" I heard that Lu Sheng's old bastard will ship in the near future, as long as you know the time and location of the shipment. Hmph, are you afraid that you won't be able to get something? ”
The scorpion didn't speak, looked at his eyes, thought for a moment and then relaxed: "Okay!" Believe in you again, and when I get back to the top, I'll look for you tomorrow! ”
After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Xia Wenshan.
"Wait, ask something!"
Xia Wenshan glanced around, and after making sure that no one was there, he quietly asked the scorpion, "Did the old guy escape?" ”
The scorpion was shocked: "How do you know?" ”
Xia Wenshan smiled mysteriously: "I'm not afraid to tell you, the old guy was arrested by Lu Sheng!" ”
The scorpion was immediately nervous: "Say! Where is he being held? ”
"Not sure." Xia Wenshan pouted, and stopped talking.
The appearance of a villain made the scorpion in front of him and Yi Fan, who was eavesdropping not far away, see at a glance that this thing didn't know where the old guy was being held, but he just wanted to blackmail the organization.
"Tell me, how much?" The scorpion said coldly.
"Hehe, originally it was my business," Xia Wenshan looked like a scoundrel and smiled cheekily, "But recently, brother, I have really tight money." So, please tell me to the top, 50 million can't be less, I promise to hand over the old guy to the organization smoothly! ”
The scorpion suppressed his anger, hooked his lips and snorted coldly: "Okay, I'll give you an answer tomorrow!" ”
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Yi Fan panicked, seeing that the scorpion was about to disappear, but he couldn't keep up, the alley was too small and the terrain was unfamiliar. If you want to keep up, you can only pass by Xia Wenshan's side, isn't this a surprise?
I had no choice but to give up tracking the scorpion.
Quickly returned to the car and let Amy drive to continue tracking Xia Wenshan's taxi, Yi Fan sat on the co-pilot and pondered.
What did the scorpion ask Xia Wenshan to find? Could it be the goods that Lu Sheng wants to sell?
And who is the old guy? The person that Lu Sheng and the Scorpion's organization want to arrest, is it Qiu Feng's grandfather, Qiu Yizhi's old man?
"Doesn't he go home?" Amy, who was driving, wondered, "It's not like going back to the bar to pick up the car, where is he going?" ”
"I'm not familiar with Beijing either." Yi Fan said, looking at the surrounding environment outside the car, and said, "It's getting more and more remote, and if you drive any further, you will have to go to the suburbs!" ”
"What the hell is this thing doing?"
"......" Yi Fan didn't answer, still pondering.
From the conversation between Xia Wenshan and the scorpion just now, it can be seen that Xia Wenshan knows the old man's hiding place, is it ......
This guy is going to the old guy's hideout now?
Yes, it must be!
"Amy, quick! Keep up, don't lose it! Yi Fan immediately became nervous.
"Don't worry, I also have six or seven years of driving experience!" Amy said confidently.
As he was talking, he saw Xia Wenshan's taxi stop in front of an abandoned factory. It's like looking at your surroundings to see if there's no one?
Amy reacted quickly and immediately turned off the headlights, afraid that he would notice.
After Xia Wenshan confirmed that there was no one around, he walked towards the factory with his waist bent.
"You stay here, I'll follow!"
After Yi Fan dropped this sentence, he immediately got out of the car and quietly followed Xia Wenshan.
But as soon as he entered the factory, he lost it, and Xia Wenshan seemed to disappear in an instant......
Yi Fan couldn't do it, so he had to look around, and there was nothing suspicious. The abandoned factory is like a gloomy cage, with no life.
The factory has two floors, there are no waste machines, and there are a total of six rooms on the upper and lower floors of the east and west sides, all of which have no doors!
Yi Fan conducted a careful search in each room, five of them were very dusty and there were no footprints, it was certain that no one had been here in these five rooms for a long time.
But the remaining room was a mess of footprints, and although the room was empty, it was clear that people had been in and out. The most important thing is that there are a few cigarette butts in the corner of the wall, leaving the residual temperature of the cigarette, which should be that someone has smoked here not long ago.
Who is it? At this moment, where have people gone?
There are two exits in the north and south of the factory, and there is also no gate, so such an empty and unobstructed place will never be a place for Tibetans!
Isn't the old guy hiding here?
So what is Xia Wenshan doing here? And in the blink of an eye, where did the others go? Could it be that the world will evaporate? Four-dimensional space?
With nothing to gain, Yi Fan had to go home with Amy.
……
In the hotel elevator, Yi Fan was still pondering, puzzled why Xia Wenshan had "evaporated from the world" just now?
And Amy's father, Gao Zhanxiang, has been friends of Yi Haicang and Zhou Shishi for many years, and the Ether Group and the Yi family are inseparable? So, is Yijia dragging Gao Zhanxiang into the water? Or did the Gao family's father and daughter affect the Yi family?
It must be the latter!
Because the "snake husband" Ma Ke and Gao Zhanxiang also know each other, there is no friend of Master Zhou that Ma Ke does not know.
Amy, who was beside him, didn't know his inner activities, and seeing that he looked worried, he knew that he would definitely not be able to sleep tonight, so he proposed:
"Chris, either...... Go to my room and sit down? ”
Yi Fan hesitated and did not refuse.
