Chapter 24: Conspiracy Theories
I originally thought that the fat brother was too sudden, and I wanted to stop him and talk to Lao Li for a while. But the fat brother's frowning look made me think that it was inconvenient for him to say anything. Helpless, I had no choice but to follow the fat brother who had already stood up, and said goodbye to Lao Li and his roommate Lao Zhang with a smile.
Out of their room, Yan Qiu and Jiang Li walked in front, and when they were about to go downstairs, Yan Qiu deliberately teased me, stretched out a hand, and said with a half-smile and half-annoyance: "Do you want to pull it?" ”
I shook my head in embarrassment.
Seeing that after Yan Qiu said this, a trace of blush appeared on his face, he turned his head, turned around in the corner, and went down the stairs happily with Jiang Li.
I can't help but sigh, what a lovely girl, how can she be a conspirator? A guy like me who can't be found in a pile of people, who would set such a big trap for me? It must be that I am too worried about myself, staring at other people's inconspicuous tattoos.
In fact, in the process of getting along, her righteousness to her friends, and the quality of drawing a knife to help each other when she sees injustice, are all obvious, look at the advantages of the other party, isn't this also the main purpose of Yanqiu's return to China to find me? Why should I be like a woman, so petty?
Thinking of this, I feel that my body is not quite right, why do I feel a little yin and yang? When I go downstairs in a while, I have to bring two strings of oily kidneys to make up for it.
While teasing himself, the fat brother said to me mysteriously: "Do you want to change places?" ”
I was thinking about what was in my head, but the fat brother suddenly asked such a sentence, I didn't understand it for a while, so I asked the fat brother: "Where to change?" It's good to be a man, I don't have sex reassignment surgery. ”
The fat brother's eyes widened, staring at me in surprise, his mouth opened for a long time, and he didn't know what to say.
I waited for him for a long time, and when I saw that there was no sound, I asked again, "What do you want to say?" ”
Only then did the fat brother come back to his senses and say to me, "What's going on in your head? ”
I said, "I didn't think about anything, what are you going to say?" ”
The fat brother said, "I asked if you want to live in a different place?" ”
"Why change places? Isn't it nice here? "I don't understand.
The fat guy grabbed my arm, stopped me from going downstairs, stood at the top of the stairs and whispered to me, "Don't you see? ”
I was even more confused, and said to the fat brother a little anxiously: "What are you going to say?" But I'm in a hurry? Didn't you eat too many chili peppers yesterday and break your tongue? ”
The fat brother stomped his feet and said a little angrily: "I really can't live with a big-hearted person like you." Guns, you didn't see guns? ”
I was immediately startled, and cautiously asked the fat brother: "Gun?" Are you saying you were in Lao Li's room and saw a gun? ”
The fat brother nodded vigorously with a dull expression.
I said why the fat brother was suddenly leaving, and he didn't even let me finish his words, it turned out that he saw the gun. I frowned, trying to remember every detail of my time in room 203, and I really didn't see a gun. I went to ask the fat brother, "Where did you see the gun?" ”
The fat guy said, "In the TV cabinet." The door under their TV stand, which was held up by a gun and not closed properly, was seen by me. ”
I recalled where everyone sat in the room. Yan Qiu and I advanced in the room, we sat near the head of the bed, the fat brother went in last, sat at the end of the bed, and the TV cabinet was in front of the end of the bed, if the door of the TV cabinet was not closed, it must be from the fat brother's angle to see.
I whispered to the fat brother again: "Did you run into an undercover agent again?" Are all the police here good at this? ”
The fat brother shook his head vigorously and said, "Impossible, when will the police be equipped with submachine guns?" Isn't that the business of the armed police? ”
I shouted, "Submachine guns? ”
The fat brother hurriedly came up and covered my mouth with his hand.
Although it was shouted, when he kept whispering, his low voice was not too loud.
I took the fat brother's hand away and confirmed it again: "Did you really see it?" Is it a submachine gun? ”
The fat brother nodded vigorously again, and then analyzed: "It's definitely not the police, the police can run Taishan as a brother?" Undercover among tourists? Why don't you go back to the hotel and follow us? We're not a criminal gang. ”
What he said shocked me all at once, stalking us? Let's not say whether he is a police officer or not, but it is very likely that he will follow us. So how did he know we were going to stay here and get there first? Tracking shouldn't include forecasting, right?
I once again entered the blind corner of my thinking, and began to doubt the fat brother's eyesight, and I asked, "You can't be mistaken, right?" Is it an umbrella or something? Do you see it as a gun? ”
The fat brother said firmly: "That's right, it's a gun, do you remember the mercenary we saw in Cao Cao's tomb?" The same as the submachine guns they carried behind them. At that time, I thought that when they were in conflict with those bandits, they would sneak around and let Zhao Tiesuo teach us how to use it. ”
Like a mercenary's gun, hearing this answer made my brain dizzy and I almost fell down the stairs. Countless clues were intertwined in my mind, and all the scenes were constantly playing in my brain like movie clips.
When he came out of Mount Tai, Lao Li said in the taxi. Mercenaries were seen on the train with tattoos on their hands. When I saw Yan Qiu on a long-distance car, she had a tattoo on her hand. When Cao Cao was separated from the mercenaries in the tomb, the man looked at Yan Qiu's eyes. Yanqiu drove us to the charcoal grilling workshop, and after eating breakfast, we came to the nearest hotel.
In the dark, it seems that all our actions, and the routes of our actions, are monitored and arranged by this group of people with tattoos. When we went down the crater from Mount Tai, this group of tattooed people watched us until I got on the train, and then to Cao Cao's tomb in Xiaqiyuan Village, and now I followed Erlian.
If it is judged that this tattoo is a sign of an organization, then Yan Qiu is the undercover agent they sent to us, from the goodbye in Xia Qiyuan Village to the chance encounter in KFC, is it all arranged in advance? That means Jiang Li is also being watched? When we met Jiang Li again, they felt that we were going to have action again, and Yan Qiu seized the opportunity to appear? Could it be that she drove us here naturally and arranged it in advance?
But Yanqiu didn't have any flaws, she was introduced by my mother, and she was Professor Chen's granddaughter, if it was premeditated, it would be too deliberate, you must know that when Professor Chen met my mother, I was not born yet, and I was adopted, not biological, how did they know that I would be adopted by this family? Or are the other people with tattoos in a gang, and Yan Qiu just happened to catch up? The more I think about it, the more confused my brain becomes, and I can't figure it out.
At the door of the hotel, Yan Qiu had already driven the car over, and the horn was pressed several times, and the fat brother and I trotted downstairs.
When the sun shines on my face, my mood slowly turns from cloudy to sunny. Take a step back and open the sky, why bother with Yan Qiu's identity? Didn't you tell yourself just now, isn't Yanqiu actually very cute? She doesn't care who she is, at least for now, it's harmless to us. And the people are also good, and they help a lot.
We do our thing, as long as Yan Qiu doesn't help. She and I still maintain the relationship with the object introduced by my mother, and continuing this process of getting to know each other is actually not bad, it's rare to be confused.
When I got in the car, everyone said that they were not too hungry, maybe the roast leg of lamb for breakfast had not been digested.
I said to Yanqiu: "Since we are not hungry, let's find a travel agency first and ask about traveling abroad." ”
Yan Qiu first looked at me suspiciously.
Jiang Li said happily: "Yes, go to Mongolia and see the bigger grassland." ”
Yan Qiu didn't ask again, just drove the car and looked for a travel agency along the roadside.
After driving for about five minutes, Yan Qiu parked the car in front of a travel agency called Traveler's Home.
In order to avoid falling into the trap of the unknown again, I reasoned that the name was not good, and I had to walk another thirty meters to another travel agency called Sunshine Walk.
The travel agency is a base shop with two desks facing each other, placed against the side wall on the right. Under the glass plate on the table are photos of many travel groups, judging from the expressions of the people in the photos, they are very happy, and some of the photos are covered by the pen holder, text jiàn, telephone and other things on the table, and it is not clear to see. There are a lot of posters on the wall, all of which are various promotional discount activities, double tours here, family tours there, and advertising slogans such as room and board, no compulsory shopping, etc.
There was a woman in the room, about forty years old, with a bun (jì) on her head, wearing a dark professional dress, sitting on the side facing the door, her head down, playing with her mobile phone.
The four of us walked in and sat side by side on the black leather couch against the wall on the left, looking up at the woman and waiting for her greeting.
The woman lowered her head and asked, "Where are you going to play?" ”
We didn't answer, and I began to regret my decision a little, the service attitude was really bad, and I knew that I would go to the traveler's house.
It seemed that the game had failed, the woman put down her phone, looked up at us, and as soon as she looked up, she said excitedly, "Why are you guys?" ”
