Chapter 394: Mysterious Gold Coins
The moonlight was brilliantly bright.
Zhao Di came to the garden where the caravan was parked. I saw that in the car, Xu Dong and the other three boys were asleep. Zhao Di glanced at them, opened the purse, took out a small glass bottle from it, put it in her pocket, and then returned to the bedroom on the third floor.
Next to it is Wang Qiang's bedroom. Zhao Di listened for a while, but couldn't hear any movement. She quietly pushed open the door of Wang Qiang's room.
At this time, Wang Qiang was falling asleep against the wall, making a slight snoring sound. Zhao Di approached him lightly. She was dressed in a white dress and a white dress, and in the misty moonlight, it seemed to be a white shadow.
She took out a small glass bottle from her pocket, poured the liquid inside onto the handkerchief, and vigorously covered the handkerchief around Wang Qiang's nose.
Wang Qiang groaned softly a few times, struggled for a moment, and fell unconscious after a while. It turned out that the small bottle contained drugs.
Zhao Di looked at it for a while, and was sure that Wang Qiang was indeed unconscious, so she lifted the blanket and carefully checked Wang Qiang's arm, and then she smiled with great satisfaction, nodded, and walked out quietly.
The next morning, when Mr. and Mrs. Mengde, Lang Xiaobai, and the other three were sitting in the dining room for breakfast, the servant came in and reported:
"Report to the master, it was still dark this morning, and Miss Zhaodi, the head of the circus, asked me to open the gate for her, and I did as she commanded. Then she led all the members of the group away.
"I asked her if she had informed her master, and she said that due to the urgency of the situation, she could not wait to leave her master, and asked me to give the letter to her master."
Meng De was very surprised and opened the letter.
Uncle:
I'm leaving, I've found the suspect who was looking around the valley and in the house for treasure. Five years ago, it was he who killed my father and stole the gold coins.
He is in the house at the moment, and I have subdued him. Right now, he's lying in his dorm room, so please take him to the Security Service.
Zhao Di
It was really unexpected. Mr. and Mrs. Meng De and Lang Xiaobai glanced at each other incredibly, and neither of them said a word.
"Why didn't Wang Qiang go downstairs?" Mende asked.
As he was talking, a servant opened the door in a panic and came in and said, "No, it's not good! Mr. Wang Qiang ......"
"What's wrong with him?"
"Dead!"
"What?"
The three of them got up and left their seats and ran up the third floor together. Wang Qiang didn't die, he just fell unconscious. The room was filled with a pungent smell of drugs.
"He was drugged and knocked unconscious, but who did it?" Halfway through his words, Meng De's eyes suddenly widened.
Because he saw that Wang Qiang's bare arm was embroidered with tattoos, and it was engraved with the words - "Luck is in the Hall of Diligence and Thrift".
Meng De's mind flashed the strange letter from Zhao Di's deceased father.
Zhao Di's Youth Circus performed in the western part of Dongzhou. A week later, at noon on the eighth day, we arrived on a remote trail. "Captain" Mo Dang, who was looking behind him by the car window, suddenly screamed:
"Ahh There was a car coming by, driving like it was flying! "It was a sedan with a modern style.
The car flew in a cloud of dust, and in a short time caught up with the caravan. A man stuck his head out of the driver's seat and raised his hand and shouted:
"Stop!"
Zhao Di immediately stopped the caravan. The man also got out of the car, took off the sunglasses on his face, and smiled heartily at Zhao Di. It turned out that he was Lang Xiaobai.
Zhao Di jumped out of the car quickly.
"Mr. Lang, why are you here? Did something happen?"
"I didn't expect to meet you here, I'm about to do something."
"What's going on? Mr. Lang!"
"Wang Qiang ran away!"
"What? Ran away?"
"Uncle Meng read the letter you left behind, and found the tattoo on Wang Qiang's arm, so he knew Wang Qiang's true face. He originally wanted to hand over Wang Qiang to the Security Bureau, but because Wang Qiang was still in a coma and unconscious, he had to let him lie in bed for a while. Unexpectedly, he took advantage of the carelessness of the servant guarding him and ran away from the mansion in a puff of smoke. ”
"However, the drug I use is very strong."
"We think that way, so we let our guard down, but we didn't expect it to happen. Moreover, that guy is physically strong and energetic, and he didn't know when he stole gold coins from Uncle Meng's house. ”
"What do you say? Uncle Meng also lost the gold coins......"
"That's right! There is a story that has been passed down in the family since ancient times. Perhaps you have heard it from your father, and it is a secret that has been passed down from generation to generation from your ancestors.
"According to legend, the ancestor possessed a large treasure of gold and silver, which was hidden in an unknown place, and then the treasure was printed on the gold coins in a secret code and passed on to future generations.
This mysterious legend has been passed down from generation to generation in the family. Uncle Meng and I have always had doubts about this rumor, and only your father is convinced of it. But Wang Qiang has poisoned your father, and even stole the gold coins. ”
"Who is Wang Qiang? How could he enter and leave Uncle Meng's mansion?"
"Uncle Meng met Wang Qiang in the southern region of Dongzhou. Because of his articulate and thoughtful thinking, he soon gained Uncle Meng's trust and became a guest in the house.
After this accident happened, Uncle Meng specially took a telegram to the Dongzhou Security Bureau to inquire about the case, but the answer he got was surprising.
Wang Qiang is a dangerous element, and the Security Bureau is making every effort to hunt him down, and the details can be detailed in a letter.
A few days later, Uncle Meng received a very detailed letter, which read:
Wang Qiang served in the national army as an officer and was punished for robbery. Later, he participated in a murder case, but was eventually acquitted due to insufficient evidence. Since then, his whereabouts have been unknown and he has disappeared.
Now that he has been convicted of murder, the Security Service is vigorously arresting him.
"So, he's a heinous murderer?"
"Yes, and he's plotting to kill another old man right now!"
"Which old man? Why is that?" Zhao Di asked in surprise.
"Meng De also has an old uncle, that is, your uncle, who also keeps a gold coin in his hand. On this lady's birthday, I went to the house as a guest, and Meng De inadvertently mentioned the matter of gold coins. He told us that his uncle also had a gold coin in his hand. Wang Qiang was also present at that time, and after listening to it, he seemed to be very interested and asked about your uncle's residence, and Meng De told him truthfully that your uncle lived in Ganxi Village, not far from Huangnitang Village.
"We didn't expect him to be the murderer. Now, I know that he not only killed your father and stole the gold coins, but also took the gold coins from Uncle Meng's hand, so the more I think about it, the more scared I become.
"I think he must be eager to gather three gold coins in order to snatch the legendary treasure, so I immediately bid farewell to Meng De, and wanted to rush to Ganxi Village immediately, but I didn't expect to meet you."
"You mean to say that Wang Qiang wants to treat my uncle...... Mr. Lang, then hurry up! If you go faster, you can arrive tonight, so let's go!"
"Alright! That's it! Because tonight, your uncle is the only one in the house. ”
"What? Is he home alone? Why?"
