Chapter 51: Cross-examination continues
The golden retriever trembled when he heard the fat man's angry shouts, and it seemed that the fat man was still quite intimidating to him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sure enough, the golden retriever immediately replied: "We were entrusted by an auction company called MP in Germany to come here to find a bead." ”
"Germany? Bead? "I think the situation is getting more and more serious, originally I thought that even if it was a little greasy, it would be in our China at most, but now it involves Germany. And it seems that the golden retriever is not lying, and there is no need to lie about this kind of thing. There are more than 200 countries in the world, and there are no less than dozens of intersections with China, so he should be more credible to reveal such a clue from Germany.
"All I know is that this German company is in the antiques business, and I don't know much else. But there is a Chinese in this company, and he is the one who came to us this time. Seeing that we were collectively lost in thought, the Golden Retriever hurriedly explained.
"What kind of beads are you talking about?" Cui Linghong asked.
"It's a glowing pearl of the night, I don't know the specifics, the Chinese in Germany just said that. He also said that the bead is easy to recognize, as long as you see it and take it back. "I expected the golden retriever to be so cooperative now, but I don't know how much water was mixed in his words. And I suspect that he still has a lot of things that he hasn't explained, as if he is deliberately hiding something.
Cui Linghong and the fat man and I looked at each other, and I felt that this thing seemed to be even more weird. The bead that the Germans are looking for in the mouth of the golden retriever is the yang bead in our hands?
"What else did he say? How many beads does he want you to find? In order to be more sure whether the Chinese German was looking for the yang bead in our hand, I continued to ask.
"One." The golden retriever replied briefly, and then said as if he was afraid that we would not believe it: "Originally, we had a physical picture, but on the way, we encountered a lot of unprepared conditions, and all the materials and equipment were damaged or lost. ”
"Is he sure there's the bead here?" I still didn't give up.
"He said that there must be the bead he wanted, and that there were a lot of valuable funeral goods here, and that we could take the rest as we pleased, except for the bead." The Golden Retriever's non-stop answer made me slowly convinced that the legendary Yang Marrow Bead did not even refer to one.
"Your grandmother has a leg, the things here belong to our China, he is a German, of course let you take whatever you want." As soon as the fat man heard that they were going to do a big sweep here, he couldn't sit still.
I reached out and pulled the fat man back, and the golden retriever gave me a grateful look.
I laughed in my heart, if there were still problems that I hadn't figured out, I would definitely not care if they were alive or dead for this kind of tomb robbers who came to China to rob tombs, and even if I hit them, I would have touched their moldy heads.
"What kind of place are you from?" I didn't ask him directly what organization he was, but indirectly where he was from.
"I'm half Chinese, and my mother is German." The Golden Retriever obviously didn't expect me to ask him such a retarded question, and answered without hesitation.
"What do you mean with a tattoo on your neck?" I didn't give him time to think, and asked while the iron was hot. Although I know that the Golden Retriever will most likely be perfunctory and not give me the real answers I want, I still have to ask anyway.
"It's an organization called the Holy Axe Cross, and I'm a member of it. All members of this group have this tattoo, but they are distinguished by the size of the tattoo and the color of their eyes. "I didn't expect the Golden Retriever to actually give such an answer, which I was a little unexpected.
"Holy Axe Cross?" I turned my head to look at the fat man and Cui Linghong, and asked, "Have you ever heard of such an organization?" ”
"I've only heard of an ancient organization in Europe called the Knights of the Thirteen Round Table. There are only thirteen people in this group, but each one has a specialty that no one else can match. Holy Axe Cross, I haven't heard of it. Cui Linghong replied.
"What do you do with this organization?" I thought for a moment and asked, "What level are you in this organization?" ”
"Our organization is mysterious, my rank is very low, and I have never met the leaders of the organization. I don't know exactly what to do. But the group I was in also had thirteen people, similar to the form of mercenaries. I was the leader of that group, and the other twelve were dead. We have been instructed to carry out all the expeditions related to the ancient tombs of China. The golden retriever replied without the slightest hesitation, and this decisiveness made me think that his words should not be false.
"As far as your group of grandsons are concerned, they are ashamed to say that they came to China to find ancient tombs to explore, and they are obviously a group of tomb robbers with wolf ambitions." The fat man said disdainfully.
"Please believe me, this is the first time I've been to the ancient tomb, but I've been in China for three years." The Golden Retriever seemed to be afraid of something, and nervously explained: "I don't need to deceive you, the people in our organization who can't complete the task can't continue to live." ”
"What is above the congregation of the Holy Axe Cross? How many groups like yours do you have? I didn't say anything, I still asked.
"There is a captain who is directly in charge of us. I've never seen the rest of the groups, so I don't know how many of them there are. Seeing that we neither believed his words nor did we say that we did not believe his words, the golden retriever continued a little anxiously: "My grandfather is Chinese, so I am also half a Chinese. ”
"Is it almost useful now?" The fat man sneered.
I know at least half of the reason why the Golden Retriever is willing to cooperate with us so much is because the fat man keeps putting pressure on him. Or maybe part of the reason is that, as he said, the organization of the Holy Axe Cross has very severe punishments for members who fail to complete their tasks.
"What have you been doing in China for three years?" Cui Linghong thought about it and finally asked.
"Watch you." The golden retriever only replied with four words this time, then thought about it and changed his words: "To be precise, it's not the four of you, but the one who is spying on him." ”
The Golden Retriever pointed his finger at me as he spoke, which surprised me even more. Of the four of us, I was the one with the least background, and I was the one who had never been to a tomb. Cui Linghong belongs to the Chinese archaeological team and has a doctorate, and I am just an orphan, and even the master who raised me as an adult has disappeared, and I don't know if I am dead or alive.
They came to China to spy on me, and they did so for three years. But I never found out, and I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and I was terrified to think about it. After thinking about it, I felt even more unbelievable that the master had just been missing for three years, was it a coincidence?
