Chapter 199: Pure White Night (2)
[I wish the students of today's college entrance examination, the title of the gold list, and be admitted to their ideal school]
(Thanks to the leader of the "God of Thunder" for the reward, thanks to the two rewards of "Jiuyu" and "This is a farewell year", and thanks to the "Silly Huan who loves to read" for the reward)
The bean sprout-like street lamps illuminated the red diamond-shaped floor tiles and yellow-painted curbs of the road, which was originally cheap, but when Napoleon VII got out of the carriage, everything around him seemed to disappear, such as the low, old buildings, graffiti-covered billboards, and untrimmed street trees. There was only a brilliant red in Cheng Mo's field of vision, Napoleon VII holding a golden carved doorknob in his hand, and his long dark blonde hair draped over his shoulders, all of which complemented the baroque red double-breasted court gown that only the royal family could wear in the eighteenth century, coupled with the ornate carriage with the family coat of arms standing on his side, and the two tall and toned thoroughbreds, which immediately gave Cheng Mo the illusion that he was in a royal palace somewhere in France.
In front of Napoleon VII in an ancestral dress, even Cheng Mo, who is wearing a luxury brand, looks like a follower in comparison, of course, the appearance of the Middle East deducts a lot of points, otherwise with Lin Zhinuo's appearance, he will definitely be able to upgrade from a follower to a good gentleman who plays with the Europa royal family.
"Cheng Mo, the makeup technique is good, I can't tell if this is your body or the carrier at all. Napoleon VII said as he looked at Cheng Mo, who was dressed as a Middle Easterner.
Receiving Cheng Mo's message in the morning, Napoleon VII was quite surprised, and what surprised him even more was that Cheng Mo said that he knew the news of the "cross bee", and asked him to meet in Athens, about the "cross bee", Napoleon did not hesitate to push away other things, immediately rushed to Athens, and waited for an hour in the place designated by Cheng Mo as agreed, but it seemed that there was another person who came here.
"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, there was a little accident just now, and I have no choice but to meet you in this way. After a pause, Cheng Mo said again: "This is my carrier, in order to infiltrate Hydra's Rona, I used a prop to block the signal, you can call me Lin Zhinuo..... I don't think you'll be familiar with this name. ”
Cheng Mo was worried that his strength was not enough to deal with the demon god Beret, and in the case that he couldn't call Bai Xiuxiu, he could only invite Napoleon VII to come over on the condition of the news of the "cross bee", but Cheng Mo was very chicken thief, he didn't tell Napoleon VII why he met here, in order to maximize his interests, Cheng Mo would only send a message to Napoleon VII when he encountered unsolvable difficulties, and asked him to help.
If you can solve it yourself, then this is just a meeting to negotiate conditions. That's why Cheng Mojo asked Napoleon VII to meet near Rhona in Hydra and found a reason to keep Napoleon VII waiting for an hour.
Napoleon VII was Cheng Mo's hole card against the Saionji Red Pill, and the Saionji Red Pill would never have imagined that the Europa nobles who had reached a tacit understanding with the "Home of the Chosen One and the Freedom Front" would help him.
Napoleon VII didn't think much about it when he heard Cheng Mo say that he used a prop to block the signal, although this prop was precious, it was not rare. On the contrary, Cheng Mo was Lin Zhinuo, who had met him in Warsaw, which surprised Napoleon VII extraordinarily, and he involuntarily blurted out: "It turns out that you are Lin Zhinuo!"
Cheng Mo smiled.
Napoleon VII instantly regretted that Cheng Mo joined the Qianlong group, becoming a spy means that he lacks time to exercise his skills, and it is not suitable for the carrier to go to the Colosseum frequently PK, which means that he has lost the opportunity to advance to the heavenly list. He exclaimed at first, and then said, "You didn't join the Hidden Dragons, did you......?" I've always felt that these spy organizations, which can't even use their own names, seem to be a little lacking in chivalry. ”
Cheng Mo whispered meaningfully: "Although I didn't join the Hidden Dragon Group, I am not a knight, and I have never paid attention to any chivalry. ”
Napoleon VII shook his head and whispered with his hands behind his back: "You are more like a knight than you think, and in your eyes I can see the beauty of sustaining life and life in an extremely repressive way, and this beauty of restraining one's own nature is the essence of chivalry...... What's more, for Xie Minyun, you are the most perfect knight. ”
It seems that we Easterners and Westerners do not have the same understanding of chivalry. ”
"You should believe what a real nobleman says about you, not what you think of yourself. Napoleon VII said it equally meaningfully.
Cheng Mo was noncommittal: "Then I can only thank you for your false praise." ”
"Time flies, it's been two years since Russia was separated..... Two years and one hundred and eight days!" Napoleon VII recalled for a moment before smiling, even speaking Chinese, there was a slow elegance peculiar to French nobility in his tone.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness, you remember it very clearly. Cheng Mo replied.
Napoleon VII winked at Cheng Mo and said in a joking tone: "How are you and Xie Minyun developing?
"No..... We're no longer lovers. Cheng Mo laughed for a moment, and then threw out a rather earth-shattering sentence, "We are already married." This time Cheng Mo's smile was heartfelt, he had always felt that there were not many things to be proud of, having a wife like Xie Minyun, and a red face like Shen Youyi was his most cherished pride.
"My God, you're married!" Napoleon VII found it difficult to keep his composure, he knew Xie Minyun's status, and he also knew that Xie Minyun was now Athena's most valued opponent, even if Napoleon VII had already determined that his goal was Athena, it was inevitable that there would be times when he was tempted by Xie Minyun. When he learned that Xie Minyun had broken Athena's record, he had a strong desire to introduce Xie Minyun to his good friend, but he didn't expect that now that he was not with Athena, Cheng Mo had already married Xie Minyun.
This was not only a great shock to Napoleon VII, but also a big blow. However, Napoleon VII did a good job of hiding his emotions, and he pretended to complain: "When did it happen? Why didn't Xie Minyun even inform my sister?"
"Last month, none of us were invited, just a simple wedding in Las Vegas. ”
Napoleon VII raised Cheng Mo's position in his heart again, he waved his hand and beat Cheng Mo's chest, showing a natural intimacy, and said enthusiastically: "Anyway, I owe you a wedding gift, this time I will invite the two of you to Paris anyway, to my manor as guests, and then I will introduce some of my friends to you, as well as my fiancée-Athena, Athena has long said that she wants to meet Xie Minyun." ”
In fact, Athena never said that she wanted to see Xie Minyun, but only said that she wanted to compete with Xie Minyun to see if Xie Minyun had real materials.
Hearing the name Athena, Cheng Mo couldn't help but think of the relief mural at the entrance of Robot Seven and the sixty-sixth floor, which made Cheng Mo inevitably wonder if Athena Mo and the demon god Beret would have anything to do with each other. "I'll know when I have the opportunity to see it. Cheng Mo thought to himself, Cheng Mo naturally didn't show any clues on the surface, and said humbly: "Your Royal Highness, there is no need to be so polite!"
"I've said it so many times, call me Christopher. Napoleon VII pretended to be dissatisfied, and then he said as if explaining, "I've always been too lazy to remember those inconsequential things, but your performance on K20 is still fresh in my memory, after the matter was over, I tried to contact Xie Minyun, I wanted to make you a friend at that time, but Xie Minyun's phone couldn't get through, and I myself was troubled by the matter of the cross bee, so I delayed." ”
Obviously, he came here specifically for the cross bee, but after greeting for so long, he subtly mentioned the "cross bee" inadvertently, and the obscurity of Napoleon VII vividly expressed the reserve of the aristocracy.
Cheng Mo didn't bother to go around in circles, and he wouldn't take Napoleon VII's words seriously, he said directly: "I didn't say it very clearly in the email I sent you, after all, it's better to say this kind of thing in person." ”
"I am amazed by your prudence, for I was a reckless fool at your age, often making rash decisions, and I had a long and winding road before reaching the word 'prudence'. There are not many people who can make me admire, Cheng Mo, you are one. Napoleon VII did not follow Cheng Mo's advice to call him 'Lin Zhinuo', but continued to call his real name Cheng Mo, because he didn't want Cheng Mo to misunderstand, Napoleon VII added, "Don't worry, no one in the vicinity will be able to approach without my permission." ”
Cheng Mo naturally didn't believe Napoleon VII's compliments, but he still showed a very useful appearance on the surface, and said in a more deliberate and light way: "It is my honor to be admired by His Royal Highness." After saying that he finished speaking, he bowed slightly to express his gratitude, and after standing up straight, he said carefully: "Regarding the 'cross bee' because the incident on the K20 was too sudden, I was not very sure at the time, so I didn't dare to talk nonsense, until recently I found some clues, I can be sure that it is not in anyone's hands now, because Shirkov did not take the 'cross bee' with him when he died, but stored it in the safe of a bank in Europa, and Shirkov only had the key to the safe with him." ”
"Is this news accurate?" said Napoleon VII's expression involuntarily became serious.
Cheng Mo nodded, "100% accurate, I caught the high-flying agent who got on the train with Shirkov on the train, this agent named Kim Enna fled all the way from Paris to Moscow with Shirkov, and I followed all the way, I don't think it would have been for her help, whether it was me, the Inquisition, or you, I would have caught Shirkov a long time ago." It's a pity that I just tortured all this out of her mouth, and when I was about to arrest Shirkov, the clown arrived on the K20, so I had to choose to save my life first. ”
Napoleon VII didn't speak, didn't ask any questions, just stared intently at Cheng Mo, obviously waiting for Cheng Mo to get to the point.
However, Cheng Mo did not continue to speak as he expected, Cheng Mo is clear about the essence of the lie, pure lies are too easy to be debunked, even if it is like something that cannot be verified at all on the train, Cheng Mo is also a half-truth, plus the news that Shirkov was originally on the K20 was sold by Cheng Mo to Napoleon VII, so the credibility is very high.
But the next thing needs Cheng Mo to be completely fictional, it is better not to say a word, so Cheng Mo said: "I am not convenient to talk about the next things, in short, I only recently found out the news, the key is now in the hands of a Russian, and the Russian is now looking for the key in Europa, which bank is the ......" said at the critical moment, Cheng Mo lowered his voice, "The reason why I see you in private is because no one knows about this matter at present, not even the people of Taijilong." ”
"If you can find the 'cross bee', you will reap the friendship of the Napoleonic family..... And, of course, a lot of money. Seeing that Cheng Mo did not mean to reveal more information, Napoleon smiled and said, he did not appear to be very urgent, as if he were talking about an ordinary business.
"Your Excellency, news is not as important as the key, and I tell you this in advance to express my sincerity, and I hope that after I get the key, you will not live up to my sincerity. Since Nicholas couldn't find a bank to store the Cross Bee, Cheng Mo didn't mind exchanging a key for the benefits that he could see now, not to mention that after getting the "Death Light", the "Cross Bee" was far less important than protecting his position in the Taiji Dragon, which was a multiple-choice question that didn't need to be thought about. Therefore, Cheng Mo contacted Napoleon VII in the morning, but he just prepared the hole cards but could not use them just now, Cheng Mo did not think of any reasonable asking price for a while, and did not want Napoleon VII to know the embarrassing situation he was in.
"That's a matter of course, but there is an idiom in China called 'long nights and dreams', why don't you tell me all the information about the key and the Russian, and I'll check it myself, as long as I can get back the 'cross bee', you can mention whatever you want." ”
"Your Royal Highness, I promise that I can hand over the key to you, but just now I said that I don't have 'chivalry', the value of the cross bee is self-evident, and the meaning to you and the Napoleonic family is extraordinary, so what I want is ......." Cheng Mo paused deliberately before he said in a deep voice: "It's the artifact in the land of Asgardian ruins......"
Cheng Mo first promised to give the key to Napoleon VII, so that Napoleon VII could not determine where the key was, and then deliberately offered an outrageous but reasonably high price, so that he could reasonably explain his motives and not make Napoleon VII suspicious, otherwise it would be unreasonable to call people from France to Athens for some reason, and it would be unreasonable not to give an explanation.
Napoleon VII frowned and said, "Your request is a bit unreasonable. ”
"Your Royal Highness, I'm not asking you to exchange the artifact of Asgard, just like I gave you just a key, a key that will definitely get back the Cross Bee, so you just need to give me a 'key' that can get the Asgardian artifact, and let me get it myself!" Cheng Mo's goal is not "Heimdall's Horn", he said that "Heimdall's Horn" is just to establish a target, so that when the time comes to exchange the "Cross Bee", he can get the benefits he expects.
"If there is such a 'key', I will go and get the 'Heimdall's horn' myself!" Napoleon VII continued to shake his head and replied to Cheng Mo in a firm tone, but he was thinking in his heart: the key to the cross bee must be in your hands and mine, not in the hands of some non-existent Russian, and I do have the "key to Heimdall's horn" in my hand, but "above level thirty-three" This key is absolutely meaningless to you, Napoleon VII is also thinking about it, and he is also rapidly using his brain to think of a way to get back the "cross bee" without paying too much price.
"Your Royal Highness, there is enough time anyway, and the key of the cross bee will not run, you think of a way first, think of a way, the two of us are discussing?"
Cheng Mo's proposal was in line with Napoleon VII's wishes, and he also needed a little time to think about what he should do, and was about to agree to Cheng Mo, when Morris, who was standing by the carriage, spoke: "Your Highness, a little girl ran towards here, and our people stopped her, but she said that she was looking for Mr. Cheng Mo. ”
Napoleon VII looked at Cheng Mo, Cheng Mo was also a little puzzled, he followed Maurice's gaze and looked at the alley behind him, the little girl named Amela who he had seen in the slum just now was stopped by a man in black on the other side of the alley, she was standing in the shadow of the wall, holding something tightly in her hand.
Cheng Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "When I passed by the slum just now, I saw that she was pitiful and gave her a little money.....
"Do you need her to come over?" asked Napoleon VII.
Thinking that he had given Ayala's watch to Amela's mother, Cheng Mo was worried about the watch, so he said, "Let her come over!"
Napoleon nodded, and Maurice walked briskly to the mouth of the alley and brought Amira over. Maybe it was the first time that Amira saw a person as splendid as Napoleon VII, much more timid than in the room just now, she looked at Napoleon VII, and unconsciously stood in the direction close to Cheng Mo, and then she spread out her palm, handed the things in her hand to Cheng Mo, and stammered: "Benefactor, thank you for the gift." Thank you also for saving me, this is my dowry, now for you. ”
Cheng Mo looked down at Ameira's palm, on which was placed a small mirror the size of a palm, and the mirror was surrounded by shells, which were very delicate and beautiful, and Damascus has been famous for this kind of shell inlay crafts since ancient times. Cheng Mo raised his hand and pushed Amira's hand back, and said softly, "Since it's your dowry, how can I ask for it?"
Amira shoved the mirror into Cheng Mo's hand, she smiled happily and said: "Because you gave a lot of money to my benefactor, I don't have to marry! Teacher Rahman said that it is not good for me to marry at my age, and it is easy for Yazlar (Angel of Death) to read the name of a baby too early, I am only 11 years old now, and it is better to wait for two years..."
Cheng Mo's heart was pulled hard, even though he knew that this was the norm for Middle Easterners and refugees, but he still felt a little uncomfortable looking at Amira's innocent eyes, he pushed the mirror back again, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't like to look in the mirror." Keep it for yourself!"
"Really?" Amira's face showed some sadness and regret, and she was so elated just now that she immediately became depressed.
Napoleon VII knew a lot of people from the Saudian royal family, so he understood some Saudi, and he also knew that the custom of Saudism was that a woman could marry at any age, and he was not shocked by this, but as a nobleman, it was etiquette to show mercy to the weak, and he said: "Little girl, don't be unhappy, your uncle is giving you a sum of money, you can take it and buy delicious food." ”
After saying that, Napoleon VII waved his hand at Maurice, and Maurice immediately took out a stack of euros from his pocket, probably several thousand, and handed them to Amira without counting them.
Cheng Mo hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Morris, he looked at Amira's expectant eyes and shook his head and said, "Don't give her too much money, it's not a good thing to suddenly have too much money in the slums...... And I've already arranged a job for her mother, which should solve a lot of problems. ”
Hearing Cheng Mo's dissuasion, Napoleon VII lowered his head to look at Ameira, but Amela was just a thin and ordinary Middle Eastern girl, and there was nothing outstanding in her appearance, so Napoleon VII didn't stop his eyes on Amera more, and said with a smile: "Then I'll give as much as you give." ”
Cheng Mo nodded, pulled out a hundred euros from the wad of money in Morris's hand, he squatted down and stuffed the money into Ameira's dirty pants pocket, and whispered: "Don't take out the money, don't shout, wait until you go home and quietly give it to your mother, and then tomorrow someone will take you and your younger siblings to Rhona in Hydra to eat something delicious." ”
Seeing that Cheng Mo gave money again, Amira immediately threw the unhappiness out of the clouds, and asked Cheng Mo if he could play with the horse for a while, Napoleon VII arranged for Maurice to take Amela to wash his hands and face, and let him play with Amela for a while.
Cheng Mo didn't waste time, and asked Napoleon VII to help send him to Lake Glimai in Wulia, of course, Cheng Mo would not tell Napoleon VII that he would treat him as a bodyguard, but just said that there was something else on the way and Napoleon VII said that Napoleon VII had a request for Cheng Mo at the moment, so he naturally would not refuse, and rushed towards Lake Glimai in Wulia with Cheng Mo.
When he arrived at Lake Glime in Wulia, Cheng Mo made an excuse to ask Napoleon VII to wait for him for a while, then got out of the car and went straight to the house number GRE· S. 519's villa, he observed the neighborhood for a while, and found GRE· The more suspicious observation points near S.519 then began to investigate one by one, and at this time it was still less than ten o'clock in the evening, the lights of thousands of homes had not been extinguished, and there were still pedestrians on the street.
Cheng Mo found the house numbers of these suspicious locations, and then called Song Xizhe to help check whether the houses at these addresses have been rented and sold in the near future, and asked Song Xizhe to invade several major rental and sales websites in Athens to check the historical records, and mark the houses that deliberately deleted the rental and sales records.
Song Xizhe was a little strange how Cheng Mo called him in the middle of the night in Huaxia, and asked a few words, seeing that Cheng Mo told him not to ask, he said that he remembered to bring special products with him, so he yawned and went to turn on the computer.
Cheng Mo searched for the garbage of these suspicious houses according to the distance and proximity, while waiting for Song Xizhe's news, about half an hour later, Song Xizhe sent him an email, sending him the rental and sales information of all the houses he gave the house number, marking two houses with recent rental and sales records with an asterisk, and deliberately deleting the records.
Without hesitation, Cheng Mo went straight to the first house marked by Song Xizhe with a star - GRE· FAL·226, THIS HOUSE IS A SHORT DISTANCE FROM GRE· S·519 is the farthest, but it is the tallest of the suspicious sites, there are no high-rise buildings in the entire South End, this house is located on the top floor of a six-story apartment, although it does not meet the requirements of a single-door detached family, but it is the most suitable observation of the whole GRE· The location of S·519, not to mention the GRE· The area of FAL·226 is also more than 300 square meters, and there is only this one set of rooms on half a floor, and the hardware barely meets the requirements of Saiyuan Temple's red pill collection.
Detoured to GRE· FAL·226, Cheng Mo raised his eyes and observed, this beige small building and the surrounding Greek-style villa buildings looked a little incompatible, it did not have the roundness of the Greek style at all, nor did it use the white that the Greeks loved to use on the seaside, but a regular boxy gray small building, there was no room on the first floor was a parking lot, and the balconies were all made of steel pipe railings, full of the smell of Ritai apartments.
The balcony faces the sea, the back side of the road, the sound of car engines whistling by, the drunken sea breeze with a hint of saltiness, and a bar by the beach not far away, and the faint sound of music drifts along the sea breeze.
Cheng Mo looked around, saw that no one was passing by, so he gently jumped onto the balcony on the second floor, then on the third floor, the fourth floor, and the fifth floor, when jumping from the fifth floor to the side railing of the balcony on the sixth floor, Cheng Mo saw a Nikon infrared night vision telescope on the side of the railing, Cheng Mo slowed down his breathing, held on to the wall and did not immediately jump into the balcony from the railing, the floor-to-ceiling glass door on the balcony was open, the white curtain was blown to the door, there were coffee tables and sofas on the balcony, and there was a copy of "The Secret Book of Izuran" on the coffee table , Cheng Mo remembered that this was a chess book that recorded Dao Yue's confrontation with Dao Ce.
Those who know the history of Ritai Go know that Ritai's Go has only flourished since the Taoist era. Before Dao Ce, the Japanese chess style was dominated by fighting and slaying dragons. However, since the Taoist policy, the chess style has changed suddenly, and it has begun to pay attention to layout theory and flexible strategy, and the Taoist strategy three hundred years ago has many modern playing methods, which is even more commendable.
Among the celebrities in the history of Japanese chess, Dao Ce is probably the first person and is respected as a former saint, and even now professional Japanese chess players still admire him so much.
At this time, the sea breeze turned the game over with a rattle.
Cheng Mo listened carefully with open eyes, and heard the sound of quiet and long breathing in the room, and other than that, there was only the sound of the sea breeze turning the pages.
After listening for a while and not hearing any other movements, Cheng Mo cautiously jumped into the balcony, leaning against the wall, and listening for a while without finding anything abnormal, Cheng Mo squatted down and leaned over a little to look inside through the floor-to-ceiling glass door, but saw Saionji Red Pill sitting cross-legged facing the balcony with his eyes closed, he was wearing a black kimono, and in front of him was a smooth and bright color chessboard, and there were two chess pots on one side of the thick oak chessboard.
It seems like he's waiting for someone to play against him......
Cheng Mo guessed that maybe he was waiting for himself.
