The two masters circled around the safe while bickering, and slapped on the top of the safe from time to time.

In the end, the two glanced at each other, and at the same time deflated, shaking their heads at Tang Sang.

"What?" Tang Sang asked.

"This thing is indeed American, and it uses the latest dynamic password conversion system, and the spring pins in the keyhole are stainless steel balls, and are controlled by computer encoders, which can be increased or decreased at any time, arbitrarily, and irregularly. To open it, you have to use the U.S. military's cipher matrix computer......"

"In short, this job is too difficult, and it kills brain cells too much. The two of us are old, and we are not willing to pay for our lives for this lock. I'm sorry, Miss Tang, no matter how high the price you pay, we are not blessed to reach out and ask for it......" Master Wan and Master Xu complemented each other.

"What about brute force hacking?" I asked quietly.

"As far as I know, there is no tool in Jinan that can open it, but there is a waterjet cutter in the fleet engineering department in Qingdao that may be able to cut the hinge of the front door of the safe. However, it was a tool in the army, and it was not lent, and if you wanted to use it, you had to bring a safe. Master Xu said.

I immediately made a decision: "Tang Sang, you take the two masters, take the safe to Qingdao immediately, no matter how hard you spend, you have to cut it." The information in it is very important, and it is related to the life and death of many people. ”

If Sheng Pinhua is a merman's spy, the higher his position rises, the greater the harm to society, which is obvious.

"This ......," Master Xu looked embarrassed.

"Bring money. I continued to add.

Money is not everything, but this world can't do without money.

Tang Sang nodded: "Okay, let's set off immediately, contact on the way, if everything goes well, we can return in the evening." ”

Her capable style comforted me, and I needed a strong and powerful assistant by my side, not a delicate, trembling, and weak classical beauty.

Tang Sang began to arrange, and the young man with a wooden expression came in and went out with the safe, and Tang Sang and the two masters also followed.

I brewed a cup of coffee, sat on the balcony, and took out the tracker to study it slowly.

The red dot on the screen is long gone, and in this case, Chen Dingkang has been kidnapped out of the city, at least 20 kilometers away from where I am.

"Open the safe, you will definitely find Sheng Pinhua's nest. "I have this confidence.

I didn't sleep all night, my head was a little groggy, and I even had a faint auditory hallucination, and there was always the sound of "whoosh, whoosh" water in my ears.

"What secrets are hidden in those three fish tanks?Why does Sheng Pinhua eat raw?Why does he have a diving suit in his closet?Does the merman also need a diving suit to get into the water...... "The appearance of the diving suit especially puzzled me, and even gave me serious doubts about Sheng Pinhua's identity.

When Zhang Quanzhong came in, I was already drowsy, nestled in a rocking chair, unable to lift my eyelids.

"Before Tang Sang went out, he asked me for leave. I'll come and see, what do I need help with?" he asked.

I concealed the fact that Chen Dingkang "cheated death", and shook my head lightly: "No, I have been reading the file given by Dr. Zong, and I am very interested in what Chen Dingkang said. It's just that many details are cloudy and foggy, and they involve a wide range of aspects, which doesn't seem to be credible. I was just thinking that the Pacific Fleet, known as the 'unsinkable ark of the earth,' and its leader was selected by the Pentagon after repeated deliberations, and that IQ and EQ are the best choices, so how can they be inferior to Chen Dingkang? We Chinese always think too smart about ourselves and too stupid about foreigners, and this is a big problem. ”

The dossier is spread out on the table, so my lies are extremely credible.

Zhang Quanzhong glanced at the dossier, his expression gloomy: "Dr. Zong is crazy, these dossiers are his last contribution to this world. ”

I wasn't surprised, with Dr. Zong's strength and cultivation, hearing Chen Dingkang's voice in that situation would indeed be overly shocked. Of course, there is also a possibility that he once did a lot of unfriendly things to Chen Dingkang for his own selfishness, such as extorting confessions by torture.

"People die for money, birds die for food" is the truest portrayal of Dr. Zong's life, which is worthy of future generations to take as a warning.

"This is the best result, he said that Chen Dingkang is crazy, and now he himself is crazy, so the words in this dossier and the research he did have become 'crazy words', and they will be shelved and sealed, and they will never harm the world again. For ordinary people, this is a great thing, lest curiosity kill cats, and greed kills smart people. I said bluntly.

Zhang Quanzhong listened silently, his eyes were deep, overlooking the city at his feet.

The sun selflessly spreads from the sky above the city, dispels the haze, sends warmth, and creates a new day of prosperity for mankind.

In my opinion, the day belongs to the humans, and the night belongs to the mermen and all the other evil forces.

Since ancient times, good and evil cannot be separated, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. If you don't completely eliminate evil figures like Sheng Pinhua, it will definitely evolve into a cancer in society and eventually become a *.

"Tang Sang likes you. Zhang Quanzhong said suddenly.

I remained silent and silent.

"Miss Lian is seriously injured, and the effectiveness of the 'Koi Vampire Bureau' is very slow, I don't know when she will recover and return to you. I don't want to lie to you, the 'Koi Vampire Bureau' can save her life temporarily, but it may not be able to maintain her brain power and mind, and it is likely that in the end, it will not be able to achieve a satisfactory result. Zhang Quanzhong said again.

My heart was getting colder and harder, and I was not affected by Zhang Quanzhong's words.

"It's a good thing that Tang Sang likes you, she is very capable of working, and with a little training, she is definitely a good hand. In extraordinary times, you may need to make sacrifices to treat her a little better, and develop her into an ally who is determined to serve to the death. Zhang Quanzhong glanced at me out of the corner of his eye.

I know what Zhang Quanzhong is going to say, and I know how to do it to achieve my goal, but I don't want to do that.

"Do you want me to be more straightforward?" Zhang Quanzhong asked.

I shook my head, "That's enough." ”

Zhang Quanzhong laughed silently, as if he had insight into my embarrassing dilemma.

Later, he deliberately pretended to be casual: "Oh yes, I asked a few friends to talk about things today, and they are related to Dr. Zong and Chen Dingkang. One of them went crazy and the other died, but luckily two powers of attorney had been set aside for me to be their plenipotentiary to accomplish the ongoing business. You rest first, and when you are fully recovered, we will talk about these things. ”

The power of attorney can be "manufactured", and with Zhang Quanzhong's computing ability, he can anticipate and direct what will happen in the future, intercept the essence of Dr. Zong's and Chen Dingkang's careers, and use it completely for his own use.

"Well, that's the best, and probably the wisest choice they made before they lost consciousness. I said.

Zhang Quanzhong turned around, looked at me squarely, slowly bent over, and pressed his hands heavily on my shoulders: "Brother Xia, you are a genius, you can jump out of the whirlpool of personal feelings a little earlier in the afternoon, and use your talents to help me solve the big problem." ”

I met his sincere eyes, did not avoid it, smiled and nodded: "I don't dare to ask for it." ”

Zhang Quanzhong let go of his hand, turned around and walked out.

I stared at his back, but what came to mind was the scene of the "Koi Vampire Bureau". Zhang Quanzhong's koi and Sheng Pinhua's three fish tanks seem to have something in common, could it be that Sheng Pinhua's "raw food" is also for healing?

In fact, at this moment, I wanted to stop him and ask him about the complex connection between koi and life-saving, but when the words came to my mouth, I didn't call out.

Zhang Quanzhong knows too much, if I just ask and don't seek answers from other channels, then in the end all knowledge will be concentrated in his hands, which is equivalent to helping him become the largest source of information in the world. At that point, he wants to cover up something, deceive someone, change the truth of something...... It's pretty easy.

At that time, if he "did evil", there was no evil force more evil than him, and if he "became a demon", then all the Buddhas and temples in the world would be in powder ruins.

This point, just like some super companies in the domestic Internet field, once they have choked the key point of the information source, they will be dominant and hegemonic, and for the sake of the company's interests, they will forcibly push all kinds of demagogic and highly guiding advertisements to users, causing unpredictable harm.

My fear of Zhang Quanzhong has no real basis, it comes entirely from the sixth sense.

The sixth sense doesn't lie to me - it's probably the only thing in the world that doesn't fool me.

"Brother Xia, do you have anything else to say to me?" Zhang Quanzhong turned around by the door.

I shook my head firmly: "Thank you, I'm really tired, my mind is a mess, and I can't remember what I want to say." ”

Zhang Quanzhong laughed, opened the door and went out, and took the door with him.

He's so smart that with the slightest move, he can guess what I'm going to do. I just opened my mouth silently, and he could feel it without looking back.

"If he is an enemy, he is a great enemy in life, there is no one. Thinking of this, I unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.

I spent the morning in a state of confusion, and at twelve o'clock a nurse in white brought lunch in, and then stood to the side with her hands down, without squinting, waiting for me to eat.

"You go out first, and I'll ring the bell after eating. I said.

She went out quickly, like a bird escaping from a cage.

I couldn't help but wonder why she was so afraid of me.

Halfway through the meal, Tang Sang called: "I have arrived at the logistics department of the fleet, contacted the waterjet management office, and the cutting operation will be officially available at about three o'clock in the afternoon." I took a photo and sent it to the other party, and after double-checking, I got two messages. First, the safe is from the United States, which is quite high-end, and has not entered the civilian market, so it seems impossible to appear in a residential house in Jinan; second, it can be cut, after all, this is not the super 'Shield Tiger' safe of the United States, in other words, the waterjet can cut all the safes except for the 'Shield Tiger'. If all goes well, I'll be able to take a picture of the contents of the safe by mid-afternoon and send it back. ”

I immediately corrected Tang Sang: "No, the cutting is complete, seal it back immediately, don't take pictures, and don't let anyone see anything inside." ”

Tang Sang understood: "Okay, understood, everything is confidential." In that case, before cutting, I will give Xu and Wan two masters honorarium and travel expenses, and let them take the train back to Jinan. As soon as the cutting is done, I load it back and it won't go wrong. ”

She is really good at being flexible, Wan and Xu are just people who build bridges, and when the bridge is built, they will lose their role, and they must be disconnected and separated to minimize trouble.

"Thank you for your hard work. "I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Tang Sang's laughter was tired: "Brother-in-law, as long as it is the work you arranged, I don't feel hard when I am so tired that I vomit blood." Wait for my good news, goodbye. ”

She hung up the phone, and the last words left me a little confused.

Lian Chengbi has never said anything like this, we are partners in life and death, and we are absolutely equal on a spiritual level. As for Tang Sang, he and I are like slaves and masters, always and everywhere with caution, doing their best to explain to me, lest they not do it thoroughly.

The two girls gave me completely different feelings, but the hearts of the two people beat synchronously with me, sharing honor and disgrace, and being in the same boat through thick and thin.

The meal was very hard to eat, because there were so many things in the mind that I was fighting, and my appetite was lost, almost zero.

With a click, the TV set opposite the dining table suddenly turned on, and the channel indication on the screen jumped several times, and finally settled on an entertainment channel, which was playing a very popular comedy cross talk program in China. At this moment, there are two cross talk actors in the middle of the stage, one surnamed Guo and the other surnamed Yu, talking about a joke about the joys and hardships of the first half of their lives.

Guo He has been a hot cross talk actor in China for ten years, and his jokes have spread widely, almost to the point that every household likes to see them, and he has gone abroad to open cross talk special shows all over the world.

After watching it for just a few minutes, I was amused four or five times, and suddenly I felt that the food in front of me was not so difficult to swallow.

When she had finished eating, the nurse timidly knocked on the door and came in, and cleaned up the table with her hands and feet.

"You just turned on the TV for me?" I asked.

The nurse nodded, her head hanging lower, a little scrambling.

"Thanks, your last name?" I asked again.

Sister Tang said, only let work, not talk. She replied in a low voice.

I couldn't help frowning, I didn't expect Tang Sang to make such a strange arrangement in advance.

"Okay, thank you, I see. I ended the conversation with a sense of humor.

Actually, I didn't talk to anyone, just a necessary polite exchange between people.

This little nurse is very discerning, and when she saw that my food was tasteless from the monitoring screen, she took it upon herself to play a comedy show to amuse me and help me adjust my mood. I thank you for that, and nothing else.

The nurse cleaned up the table, pushed the dining cart out of the door, and suddenly turned around and smiled: "My surname is Wei, and the 'Wei' who surrounded Wei to save Zhao." ”

I looked at her and nodded, she blushed and sped out, closed the door, and disappeared without a trace.

Thinking of Tang Sang's "kindness", I can only smile bitterly.

She was indeed very capable, so capable that even other nurses had to make a pre-arrangement for her to substitute for her, lest someone take her place. If you are thoughtful to this extent, you will definitely not make a mistake when you do your work.

After dinner, I curled up in a rocking chair, basking in the sun, and slept lazily.

With more than two hours left before Tang Sang's report, I forced myself to sleep peacefully to make sure I had the energy to continue working.

Within two hours, I had a dream – a dream of "turning a man into a koi".

At the beginning of that dream, I was in an ancient garden. The arrangement of the garden is very exquisite, with pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, rockery bridges, and murmuring water. The sky was blue, the clouds were faint, and the sky was higher and clearer than what modern people saw.

When I looked down, I realized that I was in the water, covered in multicolored scales, and had turned into a fish. It's a weird feeling, like a person who can't swim and suddenly falls into a pool, everything around him is strange and fresh at the same time, so I feel anxious and don't know what will happen in the future.

Then I heard footsteps, and a scholar with a scroll in his hand walked slowly and sat in a pavilion by the water. He was reading, and he was reading the article in "Mencius" that "the heavens will descend to the great task of the people".

I looked at him and suddenly noticed that there were countless koi in the water, and I also looked up at him.

There is a mythical story of "Chasing Fish" in folklore, which tells the story of a carp spirit who fell in love with a scholar, went through all the hardships, and finally moved the heavens, turned into a human form, tied the knot with the scholar, and finally became a lover.

When I saw this scene, I thought of "Chasing Fish", and at the same time, I also thought of Zhang Quanzhong's "Koi Vampire Bureau", and even more thought of the three fish tanks in the residence of raw eater Sheng Pinhua.

Creatures do not die for a hundred years and become essences, this is the proverb summed up by the ancestors in ancient times. Any living being, beyond its limiting lifespan, enters another state, existing in an extraordinary form.

In Japanese culture, there is also a record of "koi people".

When I dreamed of being a koi fish, I had mixed feelings about water. Water is both an element that carries my body and has a peculiar healing effect that makes me feel at peace and harmony from body to mind.

Just when I was thinking far away, the koi fish around me instantly turned into a beauty, floated ashore, and went towards the scholar in the pavilion.

On the surface, the graceful beauties are no different from real humans, but only I know that they are made of koi fish, and except for a human skin, they are all fish inside.

If this world is occupied by people made of koi fish, then human beings will not be able to continue to reproduce, and the human race will become extinct.

Koi people and mermaids are the same thing, and if you think about it further, they are no different from robots and aliens, they are all another kind of creature with the help of the image of "human", completely occupying the space of human life, and appearing on the earth with the crazy attitude of "bad money driving out good money", disrupting order and destroying ecology, until all living things die together.

This is the first paragraph and the first layer of the dream, that is, I look at life from the perspective of a fish and the feelings of a fish, and the conclusion I draw must be objective and valid - "Human beings have no way to retreat and endure under the attack of sharks, so they can only rush forward in the face of challenges, defeat brute force with brute force, repel madness with madness, and eliminate death with death." ”

It is the real koi who can incarnate as a person to chase scholars, just like the white snake and green snake who incarnate as a person to bewitch Xu Xian, their understanding of life forms has gone astray, so they have become the protagonists of those tragicomedies, and are willing to suffer and be humiliated for love.

If I were a koi fish or a long snake, I would never go against the sky.

The wild geese are in the sky, the fish are in the water, each has its own destiny, and each has its own place, isn't it?

In the second and second layers of the dream, I am still a koi, but I am in the transparent box of the "Koi Vampire Bureau".

Lianchengbi is unconscious, and the body meridians are full of depressed and heavy negative energy, and only through the infiltration and washing of water can the negative energy be reduced and the oxygen, nutrients and calories necessary for life can be maintained.

When the fish is in the water, it is connected to Lianchengbi's body through liquid, which can absorb the negative energy released into the water, and the water quality is naturally purified all the time.

In this case, the fish is using its own life to save Lianchengbi, and after its own negative energy accumulates too much, the fish's life will be completely over, and another batch of fish will come in.

Fish cannot choose their own path in life, because they have never been the masters of the planet, but the vulnerable people who have been hunted, cut, cooked, and fed. Neither the number of them will affect the ecological balance, nor will they attract human attention.

"I am willing to live in Lianchengbi, for her sake, even if I kill a thousand koi, I will not hesitate to do it. The lives of a thousand koi fish are not even comparable to one of her pinky fingernails. As long as she can live, the fish of a thousand rivers and the fish of ten thousand lakes...... I can buy it and put it in the 'Koi Vampire Bureau'......" At this moment, although I am a fish, this heart is a human heart, and I am ravaged for the coma of Lianchengbi.

In a trance, I saw that Lian Chengbi's body was releasing a pale gray mist outward, which was probably the evil qi in her body. If she could drain the fog, she would be able to open her eyes.

Although the feng shui fate bureau laid out by Zhang Quanzhong is called "Koi Blood Sucking Bureau", it is not blood, but poison.

I tried to get close to her, but as soon as I broke into the gray mist, I immediately suffocated, and I had to withdraw in panic and quickly move away.

In the third and third layer of dreams, I became one of the koi fish in Sheng Pinhua's family. Here, I don't feel the joy of being a fish, but I am full of fear. This fear was also transmitted to me by the other fish, and at the slightest sound they were frightened and scurried wildly at the bottom of the tank.

"Death, devils, ogres, bite ......" I received the confusing messages from the fish.

"Who's going to die today?" said fish, chirping and talking to each other.

"Who's going to die?" and when?" the fish responded.

I know that it was raw eater Sheng Pinhua who caused this panic.

Looking out through the fish tank, the narrow one-bedroom living room is dilapidated and old, and it doesn't match this fish tank at all. No one came, and the room was very quiet, except for the restless commotion of the fish.

"What's in the safe? Is it all the information of the raw eater?" Although I dreamed of being a koi, I was thinking about Tang Sang who was far away in Qingdao.

Primitive tribes, cult organizations, and people who go crazy have the habit of "eating raw", if Sheng Pinhua belongs to the above three people, then he will die.

In modern civilized society, there is no place for raw eaters for a long time.

At this moment, I suddenly realized that the raw eater contained all kinds of valuable clues, and it could not be simply eliminated, but to cast a long line to catch a big fish, and catch the main messenger hidden behind him, so as to prevent future troubles forever.

Raw food is a habit, and there must be a direction for its development and advancement.

I suspect that raw fish is the initial stage of Sheng Pinhua's development, and in the end, it is possible to eat everything raw, including the same kind.

Based on this, I don't dare to let go of this clue anymore.
