The old town in the north of the city, unlike other modern areas full of high-rise buildings in Tiandu, is made up of a large number of old buildings with a history of several hundred years, which have been preserved as cultural heritage in this modern city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Don't look at the simple bungalow compound in the old city, in fact, in the Tiandu, where every inch of land is valuable, such a low-rise building is the most valuable, and there are tens of millions of land under any small courtyard, and the people who live here look ordinary, in fact, they are all billionaires.

And for Shi Tao, living in such a place makes him feel more intimate. As an antique that has been locked up for three hundred years, it is obviously unrealistic for him to adapt to life in the modern world in an instant. And the old town, which is full of familiar scenes, gives Shi Tao a perfect buffer between the ancient and the modern. When he's not working, he especially likes to walk between narrow alleys and greet his neighbors.

It's only been more than a month since she moved here, and Yin Shuang occasionally gets lost in the alley, but Shi Tao is already very familiar with the neighbors left and right. Communicating with neighbors is also a skill, and compared to modern people who generally don't know what the opposite family name is, Shi Tao is obviously full of this skill.

"Yo, pebble, let's have breakfast again!" At the breakfast stall at the mouth of the alley, Lao Jin, who fried fried fritters, greeted Shi Tao warmly when he saw him, and Shi Tao picked a clean table and sat down: "That's it, your craft is addictive!" It's much better than the little girl at home! It's still the old rule, ten yuan of fritters, a bowl of tofu brain! ”

Lao Jin picked up the fritters and filled the tofu brain, Shi Tao went over to fetch them, and ate them with a mouth full of oil.

"I say, pebble!" Shi Tao ate deliciously, and the old golden head came over: "I heard that what kind of center you have, can you help people solve anything?" ”

Shi Tao stuffed half a fritter in his mouth: "We only take on cases related to abilities...... Lao Jin, are you in any trouble? ”

Lao Jin wiped his hands on his apron: "Actually, I want to find someone." I grew up in this alley, and I lived in the innermost house in the alley, and there was a kid in the second house next door who was about the same age as me. Later, about 40 years ago, because my father moved to another place because my father was transferred, and the house was still there, and the two of us agreed to play together when I came back. But I have been gone for more than ten years, and when I moved back here, the family also moved away, and there was no mobile phone network or anything back then, and I don't know where they moved. Now when I look at the empty house of the second family, I can always think of my little hair, and the memories of the two of us playing together when we were kids...... I said Xiaoshizi, is there any way you can help me find that family? ”

"This ...... It's not a strange event......" Shi Tao swallowed the fritters in his mouth: "And you can check the account of that family." ”

"Their house has been sold a long time ago, and now it's not necessarily in Tiandu, how can you check it......" Lao Jin sighed: "I'm total, you strangers are all powerful, can you help me find it?" ”

Shi Tao frowned: "I know that there is an ability to find people according to items, but that house has been empty for decades, and it is still easy to get hands on, and the breath of the original owner has long been lost in it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find...... Moreover, more than forty years ago, you were not yet twenty years old, and you may not recognize you when you meet now! ”

"I'm sure you'll recognize it!" Lao Jin said firmly: "No matter how young he is, I must recognize him, and he must recognize me!" How many memories do we have in common, fighting together, fishing together, picking up girls together, and peeking at women's baths together...... Ahem, in short, the memories of the two of us, chatting, three days and three nights can't be finished! ”

Looking at Lao Jin's wrinkled face and reminiscing about his youth with an intoxicated face, Shi Tao also sighed a little: "Okay, I'll pay attention, if there is a stranger who can help, I will definitely help you contact you!" ”

The two were chatting when they saw a black sedan driving in the distance, with the logo of the Association of Strangers, parked at the door of the Ni family's old mansion in front. A tall beautiful woman in a black uniform got out of the car and walked straight into the courtyard gate.

"That's your center!" Lao Jin said: "There is a big beauty, the plate is straight, tsk, do you know?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Shi Tao snorted coldly.

"Hey, how do you curse?" Lao Jin is gone.

Shi Tao explained: "I mean her name, that woman, is called Bei Feihua!" But it should be a pseudonym......" Saying that, Shi Tao whispered to himself: "Isn't she Old Man Yin's secretary, why did she come here?" ”

After eating all the fritters in three or two bites, drinking the tofu brain, Shi Tao said goodbye to Lao Jin, and walked towards his house.

After entering the courtyard and bypassing the shadow wall, Shi Tao saw Yin Shuang and other secretaries chatting in the main hall.

"What kind of wind is blowing today, let Miss Don't come!" Shi Tao walked into the main hall with a greeting, and Yin Shuang stood up when he saw him and said, "Sister Don't come to convey the mission of the association." ”

"It's a bit inappropriate to say that the mission is a little inappropriate!" The glamorous glasses woman also stood up, and today she was still stepping on those high heels, a little taller than Shi Tao.

"Today, the counseling center is an independent organization with chapter-level authority, and there is no special mobilization order, and the general association does not have the authority to assign orders here. So I came this time in the name of the association, and I have something to entrust to Miss Yin Shuang and Mr. Shi Tao. As he spoke, the glasses secretary bowed slightly to the two of them respectfully, although Shi Tao could read that the sincerity behind the bow was a little lacking, but the surface etiquette was absolutely not the slightest deviation.

This is a woman who does things without leaks.

"Don't sister, don't say that!" Yin Shuang waved his hand and said: "Although I came here, I am still a third-level agent of the association after all, and my sister is a fourth-level agent, my boss, if there is anything, you just need to command!" ”

"You're not, I'm not!" Shi Tao sat on the mahogany chair...... These were bought with the 400,000 dollars they received last time. Yin Shuang originally planned to make good use of it and save some of it as a backup fund, but he didn't expect that after Shi Tao learned to use the bank, he went to the furniture city the next day to move back a batch of mahogany furniture...... According to him, this old mansion used to be a beautiful place, but now it can't be so empty......

The price of mahogany furniture is expensive, and hundreds of thousands of dollars are only used to decorate the main hall, if Yin Shuang hadn't spent part of it in advance, I'm afraid that even the money for repairing the bathroom would have been spent by Shi Tao.

Now, there are only four digits of deposits left in the account of the consultation center, and Yin Shuang has complained about Shi Tao because of this. However, what is gratifying is that Shi Tao's vision is still good, and the furniture he bought is all high-quality and inexpensive products, which is also comforting.

"Yin Shuang has a sense of belonging to the association, but I don't!" Shi Tao crossed Erlang's legs: "We also have to eat, you have also seen it, Nuo has a big courtyard, except for the main hall, there is not even a decent decoration, the baby is bitter, the baby has nowhere to say...... Since the association has come to ask us to do something, we must at least show some sincerity......"

Shi Tao has been posting for more than a month, and I don't know how much modern knowledge I have learned, but I know a lot of Internet terms.

"Don't worry! If this commission is completed, the association will definitely not treat you badly! The glasses beauty came in one hand: "By the way, let me introduce it formally, my name is Bei Lihua, a fourth-level agent of the International Association of Extraordinary People, and the secretary of the president's office." ”

This self-introduction is very formal, and it can be regarded as covering up the joke of Befeihua before. Shi Tao didn't pursue it, and stretched out his hand to shake her: "Shi Tao, the Abnormal Event Consultation Center...... Honorary Advisors! Say, what's the matter, how much? ”

Bei Lihua smiled slightly, picked up a suitcase and put it in front of Shi Tao, opened it to him, and inside were stacks of banknotes.

Shi Tao frowned, for such a long time, he also had an idea of modern currency, and this box was at least hundreds of thousands......

"This is 500,000, which is counted as the deposit for this commission!" Bei Lihua buckled the box and handed it to Shi Tao's hand: "When the matter is done, there is still half of it!" ”

Before Shi Tao could speak, Yin Shuang walked over: "Don't sister, this ...... That's too much, isn't it, a million for one commission? We can't afford ......," he said, and he was about to return the box to Bielihua.

Shi Tao tried hard and didn't let Yin Shuang take it.

"I know Old Man Yin's temper best!" Shi Tao said with a smile: "He is willing to pay so much money, which shows that the work we have to do is definitely worth it!" Xiaoshuang, let's hear what she has to say first! ”

Bei Lihua raised his hand and pushed his glasses, revealing a sexy and unpredictable smile: "Do you know Qi Yigong?" ”

Hearing this name, Shi Tao frowned, and Yin Shuang on the side said: "Qi Yigong, the monarch of Qi during the Warring States Period, from 403 BC to 365 BC, in 388 BC, Qi Youwang Xu, who was only fifteen years old, inherited the throne of the monarch of Qi Yigong, reigned for more than 20 years, worked hard to develop Qi into the most powerful country among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and became the most powerful person in China at that time!" In 365 B.C., Qi Yigong, who was in the prime of life, fell seriously ill and died a few months later at the age of 38. ”

"It's a little frost! I'm also very good at learning history! Bei Lihua clapped his hands lightly to express encouragement, and asked with a smile: "Then do you know that in addition to Qi Yigong's eloquence in governing the country and the country, what is the most praised thing in the past two thousand years?" ”

"It should be the construction of the Alien Alliance!" Yin Shuang continued to reply: "To be exact, it should be regarded as the predecessor of the Alien Heaven Alliance, the Alien Warrior Hall!" Back then, Yishi was considered by many people to be a monster-like existence, and it was Qi Yigong who first accepted Yishi in an official capacity and gave them a place to stay. Although the dynasty changed later, and the Yishitang affiliated to the imperial court gradually became an independently operated Yitian Alliance, as the founder, Qi Yigong Ji Yun has undoubtedly made a huge contribution to the development of the Yishi Association to this day! ”
