Li Ruhui was stirring the coffee with a stirring stick, and at the same time listening to Zong Zhenlei with an absent-minded look; It can be seen from the expression on her face that she obviously disagrees with Zong Zhenlei's statement; She seemed to want to interrupt Zong Zhenlei several times, but she gave up when the words came to her lips.

Zong Zhenlei glanced at Li Ruhui, who wanted to speak and stopped, and then continued: "Also, the most important thing is that the beginning of these things, if it is the time when I go to the small fishing village temple, you must understand, it is according to Professor Li's instructions. ”

Li Ruhui finally couldn't help it, and asked in a somewhat indignant tone, "You mean to say that these are all related to Professor Li?" Appointed by Professor Lee? It won't be like this, right? ”

Zong Zhenlei lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, as if avoiding answering; After a pause, he turned his head to look at the flow of people coming and going in the mall outside the café and said, "Although Professor Li is your hometown, I still want to say that the appearance of the void in the local area seems to be related to Professor Li. ”

Li Ruhui softened her tone: "If you say that the empty fate has a purpose to follow us, I think it makes sense; But if you want to say that Kongyuan was assigned by Professor Li to cause these incidents, I don't agree with it, after all, it is not good for Professor Li to interfere with the research! You don't know, when Professor Li talks to us, he doesn't have the high-mindedness of his contact with people in school, which shows that Professor Li attaches great importance to the relationship with us and the research of this team. ”

Zong Zhenlei didn't answer her words, lowered his head and turned the cup: "If it is not mixed with emotional factors, judging from the facts, among Professor Li, you, and me, Professor Li and Kongyuan knew each other earlier than the two of us, judging from his behavior of asking me to send a letter to Kongyuan, his relationship with Kongyuan should be more familiar than mine; Therefore, it is Professor Li who is the most likely to reveal our whereabouts to the empty edge. I only analyze the current situation and do not consider anything else for the time being. ”

"Okay, then let me ask another question, why did Professor Li do this?"

"After the police left this afternoon, I asked myself repeatedly, why is this? Professor Ming Ming is the person in charge of our research project, and we have already reported to him on every step of the research, why do we still let the void follow us? Zong Zhenlei turned his eyes to look outside the café again, "Later, I thought that there was only one explanation, that is, the professor didn't trust us, so he sent someone to keep an eye on our every action, and would compare our actions with each report, so that the process we studied could be clear, so that we could not cheat; There is also a possibility that the professor wants to monopolize the research results, so he wants to control all the data by tracking us. ”

After listening to his analysis, Li Ruhui eased the resistance just now, thought for a while, and said, "According to you, could Mr. Hong's disappearance be related to Professor Li?" ”

Zong Zhenlei looked back and said, "Although we now know that Kongyuan pretended to be the dormitory manager and interfered with our pick-up, and Professor Li is still suspected of communicating with Kongyuan, but whether Mr. Hong was picked up by Kongyuan at his instruction, I don't think it can be judged without basis; However, if we assume that the professor wants to monopolize the research results, it seems that this possibility exists. ”

Li Ruhui's brows furrowed: "You mean that the professor is trying to prevent Mr. Hong from getting close to our research materials in order to possess all of the research alone?" ”

Zong Zhenlei nodded: "Apart from this, I can't think of any other reason now." When I was waiting for you at your school on the day of pick-up, I was still thinking that Professor Li suddenly asked us to receive Mr. Hong, which seemed to be different from his original approach, which was a bit abnormal; Moreover, if Mr. Hung asked to see the information, I don't know how Professor Li would respond. ”

Li Ruhui is still unwilling to accept Zong Zhenlei's analysis: "But didn't he allow us to go to the capital to meet Mr. Hong a while ago?" ”

Zong Zhenlei took a deep breath: "At that time, we were still far from the results, but now it is different, now the data has gradually accumulated, and we are getting closer and closer to the results of the research." ”

"Although the professor doesn't have the information we have accumulated, our research results will eventually be handed over to him, so he doesn't have to use it to get results, right?"

"Do you think about it, didn't he repeatedly explain that we can only say conclusions to Mr. Hong, and cannot hand over information? Conversely, he placed more emphasis on research data than on conclusions. Think about it, what if he not only wants the results, but also wants to control every detail of the research process on his own? Because he has mastered the details, he can make new and free interpretations of the research results, and at the same time, when he reports the research results, he can better show his authority on the research; However, his work at the school prevented him from going to the front line in person, so he had to send someone to supervise and follow up on our research. ”

"If that's the case, isn't this professor terrifying? Since he doesn't trust us, will he also take the information in our hands? ”

"I don't think it will be yet, because we haven't come out with the final results yet, and we still need to continue researching, so there will be no danger. Of course, all of the above mentioned are still conjectures. ”

"There is some truth in your analysis, although it is conjecture, but these things that have happened in front of our eyes are true, and we don't know how familiar he is with the void, so no matter what his purpose is, we have to guard against it." Li Ruhui's words showed that she had gradually accepted Zong Zhenlei's analysis, and after speaking, she probably thought of her behavior just now, and added: "It seems that I was right not to send him information today." ”

Zong Zhenlei nodded and said, "That's right, it is indeed necessary to prevent him from resorting to violent means when he can't get the information." ”

"It's kind of ...... to hear you say that I can't think of a way to describe it, it's a chill down my spine anyway! I shuddered when I remembered staring at me that day, you don't know, like two sharp blades with cold light, yes, just like what you photographed today, it is a feeling that can suffocate people just by looking at me. ”

"Why didn't I feel it...... I suddenly remembered one thing, you said that he was pretending to be a dormitory manager, but your dormitory manager must be a woman! ”

"I really didn't see that the dormitory manager was a man, and if he was wearing a wig and I was in a hurry, I wouldn't have paid close attention. I now have a guess that when I lost my phone, or he sneaked into my dorm room while I was going to fetch water, and then saw your calls and messages, and sent you a message in my tone to transfer you away, he should know about our relationship. ”

"It's exactly like he did it; If he had picked up Mr. Hong at the airport, he would have had to delay our departure. ”

"In this way, he actually entered our girls' dormitory building a long time ago, and then walked around the hallway of my dormitory, waiting for the opportunity to make a move; I feel chills when I think about it now, a murderer who has killed people, wandering next to me! ”

"Your girls' dormitory is usually so strict, no boy can enter, how can he get in? If he deceived the dormitory manager's sister-in-law, wouldn't so many girls who came and went back in the corridor recognize him as a man? ”

"I also think it's bizarre, I should have met him when I went out to fetch water, and I didn't find a man passing by in the corridor; Even if he can wear women's clothes, there is still a difference between men and women in terms of appearance, and I mean when he is without makeup. ”

"Hey, you said that reminded me, and now that I think back, when I talked to him face to face, I really don't know where I could feel that he was a little feminine, maybe it was the shape of his face."

As he was talking, there was a commotion outside the café, as if something had happened, and many security guards rushed in the direction of the food court.

Someone came from the side, saying that a small security guard was found in a storage room in the food court, and his clothes were taken away, and people were watching in a mess.

Li Ruhui saw that the environment had become complicated, and saw that the time was already more than five o'clock, thinking that Professor Li should be able to finish the meeting at six o'clock, so she settled the bill and walked out of the café with Zong Zhenlei.

Li Ruhui felt that she should ask Zong Zhenlei for advice: "Let's go to see the professor as originally planned?" ”

Zong Zhenlei thought for a moment and said, "Yes, our team is still under his jurisdiction. ”

"What about the information? What if he offered to copy the information? ”

"Professor Li wants information over there, so we can use procrastination. Now the situation is still unclear, we need to keep the information, since Professor Li cares so much about the first-hand information, then as long as we have the information in hand, people will be safe; Wait until the case is over and the enemy is clear. ”

"Do you have to wait until you find a sponsor?"

"Now that the situation has become complicated, you should be careful; Although I have a good impression of Mr. Hong, we don't know the true purpose of his desire to confirm the source of the Buddha relics in Yongzuo Temple; I still have a concern, I wonder if he will have something to do with the 'Golden Lily Project'? After all, we don't know whether the purpose of Mr. Hong's research project from Southeast Asia is related to the possible existence of a treasure hunting gang in Southeast Asia. Even if Mr. Hung has requested, we will only report the research results to Mr. Hung first, and we will not be able to submit the research materials for the time being. ”

When the two were standing near the elevator entrance and waiting for the elevator, there was a boiling sound from the food court, and people in security uniforms kept rushing past them.

Seeing Li Ruhui looking back curiously, Zong Zhenlei said: "Don't worry about it, I remember that you said that you wanted to treat yourself because you had made a major discovery, but you haven't told me what the discovery is yet!" ”

Li Ruhui then remembered the purpose of drinking coffee: "Look at me, I almost forgot!" This discovery is to find a description of the Buddha relics in the Yongzuo Temple, and I think, now it is safe to say that this is that one! ”

A smile suddenly appeared on Zong Zhenlei's face: "You are awesome!" From what article did you find it? ”

Li Ruhui's face seemed to be full of "proud": "You know when you see it, I scanned it into a notebook." ”

As she spoke, she reached out to touch the notebook bag, at this time, she found that her bag had become lighter, and quickly opened the zipper of the bag to see that the notebook was no longer in the bag, and a big cut was made under the bag.

Li Ruhui suddenly felt like someone had poured a bucket of ice water on her head.
