Chapter 269: Repairman for Door-to-door Service
In the photo, the two men are smiling and clasping their shoulders, as if they are in a good relationship.
The one on the left is carrying a fishing rod, Zheng Xianyue compares the only surviving "grandfather" photo in the study, it is obvious that this should be the "grandfather" who has never met, and the one on the right is holding a fishing bucket and grinning loudly, so who is this person?
Zheng Xianyue then flipped the diary backwards, and soon, the diary in the back part explained the identity of the other person.
Among them, the word "mafia" attracted Zheng Xianyue's attention.
It seems from the text that the mafia should belong to the illegal and violent group of this world, and this person with a fishing bucket, named Bob, once worked with his "grandfather", and is now a certain Italian mafia leader, a godfather-level figure.
According to the book, the bronze dagger is a testimony to their friendship, and the last time recorded in the diary is compared to the current calendar, and the last diary entry of the "grandfather" stopped two years ago.
The journal says that in another year, his friend "Bob" will be in London a year later, and will be staying for a long time. "Grandfather" also writes in the book about the anticipation of the upcoming reunion of his childhood friend, and marks the contact location where Bob will be staying.
Zheng Xianyue's eyes lit up, a year after that, that is, last year, this big man, Bob's godfather, came to London, so can I go to him for help? The back of this diary records many black and white contact methods, it seems that his "grandfather" has a wide social circle, but this also caused more difficulties for Zheng Xianyue's investigation.
Closing the journal, the black-covered journal was put back in place, the globe was restored to its original state, and the bookshelf was closed again, obscuring the cassette.
Zheng Xianyue looked at the many different kinds of books in the bookcase, so the most important thing at the moment is to add the basic common sense of this world first.
As time went on, she politely declined the lunch prepared by Tony Bull's butler, and only ate a few biscuits to satisfy her hunger.
When the sun was gradually fading, Zheng Xianyue closed the last book, and at this point, all the books on the bookshelf had been read by her.
She sighed slightly, and found a time to meet the Bob's godfather, but before that, it was best for her to find out a little bit about the address of the mafia controlled by Bob through other channels.
After all, there is no evidence that the friendship between the "grandfather" and him is eternal, and there is not enough reason for a godfather to lend a hand to himself. At times like these, the more hole cards you have, the safer you are.
Suddenly, a shrill brake sound came from downstairs, attracting Zheng Xianyue's attention.
A rusty old jeep stopped, the door opened, and a kind and gentle old man stepped out of the car, and this person, she may never forget in her life, Jack the Murderer!
Jack took out a large toolbox from the back compartment, judging by the size of the box, it was likely that there was a chainsaw or similar murder weapon in it, Zheng Xianyue would not be naΓ―ve to think that this killer's toolbox was just a simple repair tool.
Tell him this, and never let the dangerous man into the house. Zheng Xianyue quickly left the study and ran down the stairs, "Tonibul, Tonibul!"
When he reached the ground floor, he happened to meet the butler who was about to open the door at the bottom of the stairs, and Tony Bull respectfully asked, "Is there anything you need help with?" β
"The man outside the door ......"
Tony Bull smiled gently and gentlemanly: "That's not a stranger, please don't be nervous, Miss, it's the repairman I just called, the water pipe in the villa is broken and needs to be repaired." β
"Is that the person you called?" Zheng Xianyue trembled in her heart, so it was! She couldn't help but be so nervous that she wanted to take a step back, but reason told her that she must not show the slightest sloppy.
At this time, even if he showed half a hint of panic, I am afraid that Tonibul would be vigilant, if he was controlled by Tonibull because of excessive panic, then even if he did not even have the last chance to escape.
Zheng Xianyue showed a bright smile, patted her chest, and pretended to be relieved, "So that's the case, it scared me, I was still wondering why a stranger came in, but since it was the person called by Tony Bull, then I was relieved." β
Tony Bull returned the favor with a smile of understanding and went to open the door.
"Tonible," Zheng Xianyue continued.
Tonibull was slightly stunned, his face was extremely ugly, could it be that this woman had discovered something?
Turning around, Tony Bull smiled reassuringly, but still patiently asked, "Miss, do you have any other instructions?"
"I've been feeling dizzy lately, and I need to go back to my room to rest first, and if I can, I hope to try not to disturb me when I repair it. β
Zheng Xianyue pretended to be calm and walked down the stairs and walked slowly upstairs. Before walking up the stairs, Zheng Xianyue's eyes caught a glimpse of Tony Bull opening the door......
After leaving Tonibull's field of vision, Zheng Xianyue quickly ran back to his room, and the door was closed and locked.
Without thinking, she pulled open the drawer and took out her scissors to cut the sheets on the bed into strips of cloth and tie them together to form a long rope.
Zheng Xianyue put on a coat and an earth-gray hat, came to the window, tied one end of the long rope to the window bracket, and fixed it, and threw the other end off the window.
At this time, the lock outside the door began to twist wildly.
Tonibul's voice rang out from outside the door, "Miss, I'm sorry, but can you open the door?" The repairman on our side said that there might be a problem with the water pipes in your room, and he needs to check it. β
However, there was no response, and the long rope tied to the window fluttered in the wind.
"Miss, Miss!"
The sound outside the door gradually became impatient, and a chainsaw sawed directly into the wooden door, and when the wooden door was about to be sawn in half, Jack kicked it over, directly kicking half of the door open.
Jack and Tony Bull walked into the room, looking at the empty room and the cloth rope by the window, and Tony Bull roared, "Hell, how is this possible? Could it be that she noticed something? No, it is absolutely impossible. β
"Have you forgotten what Master Teucer said?" said Jack slowly, "The Zheng family is a family from China, never underestimate the wisdom of the Chinese Yankees, the most terrible thing is not that you don't know, but that you think you do." β
