"I don't have to use a gun—" I replied lightly, he just stared at the LCD screen, and experienced the special scene when Wei Yueyan ascended the elevator.

The rivers and lakes were originally a place of deception and deception, taking Wei Yueyan as an example, as a long-famous master in the underworld, she also deceived one set in front of her and one behind her back, and even the two girls who were traveling with her were deceived, just driven by some interests. Now he has paid a terrible price for his trickery, and has been reduced to a thin human skin.

"I wonder if Sylvie was frightened?" I felt a sudden apology in my heart.

While Mez mobilized the police to search the room, I stayed alone in the lobby, leaving everyone behind and forgetting about her for a while.

"I have already ascertained the identity of the person who disappeared Mr. Chen, he is a master of the Chinese-American triad, and he has a very large criminal record. In recent years, he has been active in North Africa, focusing on the underground transport of ancient antiquities, and has been closely involved with illegal armed forces in the Somali Peninsula, and has been involved in the international arms deal......"

Miz chattered endlessly, I know more about Wei Yueyan than the official sources, and I don't need him to repeat it.

"Why did he come to see you?" Miz said the real problem, a sly smile on his face at the core.

"Are you doubting me, doubting me?" I smiled, not wanting to dwell on such a sideline.

"Ha, how dare I? Mr. Chen is a state honored guest, and he will definitely not do anything that endangers Egypt's interests, right? Otherwise, the principal responsible persons of several high-level departments would not have personally called him. Mr. Chen, if you have the opportunity to say a few kind words to the above for me in the future, it is best to transfer me to a safe and light department, so as not to run outside all day long, except for murder, it is murder—"

The elevator stopped and slowly opened, just in time to end Meez's chatter.

Now we are on the nineteenth floor of the same silence.

Miz clenched his pistol, his face turned an ugly blue from excessive nervousness: "I think...... Doesn't seem to be a problem?" he didn't rush out of the elevator, but approached the door, probing his head into the hallway.

I pressed the intercom switch and raised it to his lips and kindly reminded him: "Ask the police downstairs to bring the hotel administrator up, and if no one opens the door, they need to provide an electronic key - by the way, if no one opens the door, at least it means that the room is safe, once an unknown person opens the door for us, it will be a really bad experience." ”

When Wei Yueyan arrived in my room, he may have expected the result of "no one opens the door", but his miscalculation led directly to the most painful failure.

Miz's face turned pale, he grabbed the walkie-talkie, and commanded loudly: "The fourth and sixth groups take the hotel caretaker to the nineteenth floor, and the rest of the people are on standby at the exit of the stairs. "That human skin probably scared him, I just vaguely mentioned that he couldn't stand it anymore.

We walked down the hallway, and Meez called the two officers again, and the results were still the same.

Within half a minute, two groups of police officers joined us and stopped at the door of Room 1906. The officers were ordered to knock on the door, knocking for three minutes, and there was no movement in the room, except for the administrator to open the door with another spare electronic key. The officers rushed in on high alert, but Mez stood in front of me, with no intention of entering.

"Mr. Chen, please wait outside, my subordinates will take care of everything. "His intention is obvious, trying to block the news as much as possible, so as not to make the police more passive.

I shrugged, "Mr. Obedience." ”

After the old class left, I have been thinking about this question: "How much money will the hotel lose by tearing down that wall?" The most critical issue in the negotiation of various transactions in the commercial community is the word 'price', and if I can compensate the hotel, the money will definitely make the demolition work go more smoothly. ”

As a four-star hotel, Moonlight Hotel is not directly under the jurisdiction of the police, but has its own board of directors, shareholders, behind-the-scenes investors and a series of business backgrounds, which are by no means controllable by the high-pressure policies of the police.

Think more complexly: Is it enough to tear down a wall? At worst, it is estimated that there will be problems in this building from the top to the end, and it will be demolished to the end, and it will be a huge financial figure, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to pay with my financial resources alone.

I couldn't help but laugh bitterly at myself: "Money is not everything, but not enough money is everything." ”

Miz glared at me dissatisfied: "Mr. Chen, we are grasshoppers in the same boat, and you can't jump on me." If there is any secret information, it is better to share it together and not to swallow it alone, which is the basis of sincere cooperation. The language level of his quotation of Chinese proverbs is quite low, and he even mistook "grasshoppers on a line" for "grasshoppers on a boat", which made me cry and laugh.

The officers rummaged through the room and made an earth-shattering noise, but the two officers who were undercover never showed up. This can also be seen as good news, after all, the two of them have not turned into * human skins like Wei Yueyan, and there is still a possibility of survival in theory.

I pointed to the brass number plate above the door frame and asked quietly, "Have you figured out the property rights and investment rights of this building, officer, and what price will it cost if you dig three feet into the ground to find someone?"

Miz looked up at my gaze and nodded pensively, but didn't immediately give an answer.

A police officer came out and whispered to Meez: "There was no sign of a fight in the room, no one was empty, all the surveillance equipment was intact, but all the records had been taken. ”

This was the most frustrating outcome, and from the frustrated look on Miz's face, he had lost his initial patience after a series of setbacks, and shouted orders for the officers to retreat. All the accidents of the Moonlight Hotel will be published in the newspaper headlines by the reporters of good things, and if they cannot give the citizens a satisfactory answer to this, Miz and his superiors will be in danger of losing their positions at any time.

"Can I go in and have a look?" I asked, smiling.

Miz waved his hand dejectedly: "Go, go, do whatever you want." ”

The room was a mess, and all the sand cushions were scratched by knives. The police officers who came in to search probably thought that their colleagues had been dismembered and hidden, so they even rummaged through the drawers, under the bed, shoe cabinets, and wardrobes, and even poked them carefully with knives in the foliage plant pots on the balcony, for fear of missing a clue.

I focused on the east wall of this room, which is the west wall of the upper floor of room 1808 where I lived. The walls are pasted with the uniform wallpaper of the hotel, and the heavy and thick echoes are knocked out by raising your hand, which does not look like the movement of a hollow mezzanine. This wall belongs to the load-bearing main wall of the whole building, and if it is forcibly removed, it will affect the safety of the building, and it is indeed a little troublesome.

"Where are the two police officers going? Are they murdered, dismembered, taken hostage, or simply eaten alive by nameless monsters? Why are the two of them missing so many people in the hotel?"

I stood at a desk full of bugging devices, pondering, and my eyes stumbled upon an empty wine bottle. This was stolen by one of the police officers from room 1806, which reflects the "quality" of the Egyptian police.

"What's out of the ordinary?" said Miz, leaning against the doorframe, reluctantly putting away his spear and lighting a cigarette.

"To solve the mystery of disappearance, you have to tear down the walls. "That's my only conclusion, and I've made a wise judgment when the dragon elephant vanished.

"Mr. Ha Chen, you may not know that the reason why this building has escaped the doom of demolition and reconstruction is that it has a backstage support that imposes pressure. If it could be dismantled and repaired at will, it would not be what it is today, and it would have become the most magnificent building in Cairo in one fell swoop. Demolition, the Ministry of Construction has issued four public notices in a row, and we police don't want to go to trouble anymore——"

Miz chuckled and spewed out clouds of smoke.

"Who is the largest shareholder of Moonlight Hotel?" I wondered.

Miz waved his hand: "That's not important, the key is that ZF didn't come forward to dredge up good things, we don't even have to try, so as not to make a mess and come back and hurt me and my boss to carry the black pot." Forget it, this matter is over for the time being, I have to go back and write a report on the case, shall we?"

Miz accompanied me back to room 1808, where Sylvie sat alone on the sand and stared at the TV, and when she saw me enter, she stood up as if she had seen a savior, and a smile of joy immediately appeared on her face. There are so many things going on in this room, and she dares to stay alone, waiting for me to come back, and I can't help but feel a little touched in my heart.

"Mr. Chen's hotel provides you with a luxury suite on the eighth floor, the previous check-in fee is all waived, and the future service is provided free of charge, and you can stay at any time. There was surprise in Syvi's expression, as she couldn't figure out why the hotel was suddenly so respectful.

Miz was also surprised: "Oh, the hotel is so generous?"

If I can't find Leng Xin, I will live here forever, I don't know if I know the cumulative cost, but I am afraid that it will be a lot of money. I didn't have a good relationship with the management of the hotel, and it didn't seem necessary for them to be so careful.

"Shall we go to the room on the eighth floor, then?" Sylvie let out a low cry and her shoulders shook, revealing an expression of extreme pain. Only then did I realize that she was still a sick person, and that the wound on her shoulder had not healed, so I took her in and out of the desert continuously.

"Miss Syvi, what's wrong with your injuries?" I reached out to help her.

Seeing this, Miz immediately took his leave, leaving an envious expression of "Yan Fu is not shallow".

I didn't worry about Xiwei going back to the hospital alone, so I took her to room 802 on the eighth floor. As long as the heart is selfless, even if men and women live in the same room, there will be no peachy stories, not to mention that this is a spacious suite with two bedrooms on the left and right.

"Mr. Chen, I have taken it upon myself to inform Director Lorraine and ask her to come to the hotel tonight to meet you. Forgive me for doing this for a reason, and when I was in the closet for something strange, I heard a horrible voice in the air again—" Syvi's face flushed sickly all the time, her hands clasping her heart weakly.

I was stunned, "Let me guess if it's the kind of spell you've heard several times before?"

Xi Wei nodded vigorously, accidentally touched her shoulder again, and frowned slightly: "It's that kind of spell, it's everywhere in the closet, in the bedroom, on the balcony, in the bathroom, and all the time, making a huge echo that almost deaf my ears." I was so alarmed when I saw the human skin, and when I calmed down, I was about to tell you that you were no longer in the room. Mr. Chen, Pharaoh's spell only works on those who covet the treasure of the pyramid, the cause of Wei Yueyan's death is so weird, could it be that she was killed by a curse?"

I couldn't answer for a moment, so I paced around the room a few times and laughed: "We've all forgotten one thing, do you know what it is? I'll treat you what you want to eat, anyway, the hotel is so hospitable, we can't lose face to each other. ”

Facing a table full of French dishes, Xiwei couldn't help but sigh: "Those two little girls left in too much hurry, and they didn't wait for your hospitality, which is really unpleasant." ”

The Long sisters left before the police arrived, and they only greeted Xiwei and were very unfriendly to Officer Miz. When Xiwei mentioned this, she couldn't hide her love for the twin sisters, but unfortunately she didn't see the real photos of Long Jiao and Long Rao when they killed people and stole goods, otherwise it would not be so easy to trust others.

"Miss Xiwei, don't believe too much in the people who meet in Pingshui, in fact, many characters in the rivers and lakes are not as simple and simple as they seem on the surface. I swallowed a large mouthful of delicious caviar and shook my head with a smile.

In the vast sea of people in Cairo, Xiwei and I, two lonely boats that met by chance, were able to dine at the same table is not a simple fate, and we should cherish the short silence of tonight.

"And what about you, Mr. Chen, are you as gentle and approachable on the inside as you are on the surface?" Xiwei bit down on her small silver spoon and looked at me through the white oak dining table, as if she were about to pierce my surface camouflage.

I smiled and didn't want to answer.

The same question has been asked repeatedly by Leng Xin, and I have never answered it, because I have long passed through the sea of war and killing, and my previous life is real, even if I really want to swear to put it aside, how can I erase that experience from my life? There is no doubt that I can smile heartily and generously in front of Leng Xin and Xiwei, talk elegantly and freely, but I always keep some secrets that I dare not touch, but I always keep some secrets that I dare not touch.

Xiwei raised her glass: "Mr. Chen, I hope you can find Miss Leng Xin as soon as possible, and I am willing to do my best for this." ”

I felt the helplessness, lingering and resoluteness in her eyes, and it was obvious that the day Leng Xin returned to me was the day we left Egypt, and it was unlikely that we would meet again in this life.

After being slightly drunk, Xiwei's mood was much better, but her face was still not good, and she had been leaning over the railing of the balcony and humming a gentle love song.

"Pharaoh's curse has turned Wei Yueyan into a wonderful human skin?is this a sudden change, is there something in my room that belongs to the Pharaoh, and he wants to sneak in and keep it for himself?" I thought carefully about the furnishings in Room 1808 three times, and was sure that there was nothing unusual except for the wall.

The treasure he coveted was in the wall—" The more determined I was to tear it down.

"Mr. Chen, I saw Curator Lorraine's car, and I had already turned the corner and drove towards the hotel. Sylvie called me out from the balcony.

It was Leng Hannan who was really interested in Lorraine, so I didn't respond too excitedly to Xiwei's call, just rang the electric bell and asked the waiter to bring in two fresh fruit bowls immediately.

About five minutes later, the doorbell rang, and Sylvi ran to open the door, hugging the people outside the door, and the two of them laughed together.

I stood up and looked at the woman in her smoky gray business attire in the doorway. She was only in her early forties, her eyes were bright, and she was gently bowing to me with a piercing acumen: "Mr. Chen, I heard from the professor and Miss Leng that you have seen you more than a thousand times, and I am fortunate to finally see you today." ”

Xiwei walked in with Lorraine's arm, the real age difference between the two was quite a lot, but they looked as harmonious as a pair of sisters, and they were equally beautiful and bright.

Lorraine swept the short one that swept her neck and introduced herself with a graceful smile: "I am a good friend of Professor Lorraine Leng Hannan, and I am also a good sister of Leng Xin, and we met many times a day before my death, like a family. She wears a Vacheron Constantin watch on her wrist and two sparkling diamond stud earrings in her earlobes.

I stretched out my hand to shake her and smiled modestly: "I am Chen Ying, we have faxed materials to you for the professor through the phone before, although I have never met him, and I have really admired Director Luo Lin for a long time." ”

The word "Jiu Yang" is not a deliberate attempt to praise her, and the name of the great soothsayer "Andaru, Bataku, Lorraine" has long been like thunder to me, and I could not have imagined that I would be sitting face to face in such a situation today. Luckily, I'm no longer a member of the organization, and we don't have any conflicts of interest between us.

Lorraine went straight to the point and did not have any hypocrisy and politeness: "I am also very sad that Professor Chen was killed. He has made an indelible contribution to the cultural restoration of ancient Egypt and has donated hundreds of pyramid artifacts to the National Museum. Today we need to talk about the 'Cursed Stone' - in fact, the legendary stone with supreme divine power is in the hands of a wealthy man in the city of Cairo. The professor had gone to the rich man and offered to buy the 'Cursed Stone' at a high price, but the other party had more wealth than the grains of sand in the desert, and he was greatly frustrated by his arrogant refusal, because he had promised to bring the stone back to me with his own hands. ”

A layer of shame flew across her face, and she calmed down in an instant.

If I didn't know the details of Lorraine, I would only treat this incident as an ordinary story of an old man and a young woman falling in love at sunset, but Lorraine's identity is destined to be a complex conspiracy.

Sitting, Sylvie's eyes were too sleepy to open, and she fell back unconsciously, falling asleep silently.

"You hypnotized her?" I smiled coldly.

"Let her sleep for a while, and the less she knows, the easier it will be for her. Lorraine stood up and casually took off her top to reveal the silk embroidered shirt underneath.

"What did the professor do next?"

"The rich man offered to ask the professor to find the Wheel of the Sun and exchange it for the Cursed Stone—" She said this, and I immediately understood who the other person was. It is rumored that Charlotte has been offering a large reward for the whereabouts of the ancient book, and unexpectedly, after turning a big circle, she will be involved in a robbery in the desert.

Lorraine's expression darkened: "The professor has a deep study of the treasures handed down in ancient Egypt, and there are some clues related to the "Wheel of the Sun" just before, so he agreed to exchange the ancient book for stones. He said that he would definitely find the ancient book within a week, but only three days later, he had an accident and a violent corpse desert. ”

She paused to take out a handkerchief and gently wipe her eye sockets.

The professor's confidence in obtaining the Wheel of the Sun is most likely the reason for his robbery. In the face of a large amount of money, everyone will choose the most inhuman shortcut, robbery and killing are the best means to open the shortcut.

I quickly figured out one thing: "Leng Hannan's death is likely to be the robber's hand after he was convinced that he already had the ancient book in his hand, so where is the ancient book now? Will it be transferred to Charlotte's hand through the robber's hand? If you think backwards, you can get the robber's information through Charlotte, and then you will not be far from Leng Xin's whereabouts at this time." ”

"Mr. Chen, I hope that the information I have mentioned will be useful to you. As you already know, the rich man who has an appointment with the professor is the most famous lady Charlotte in Cairo, and if you get close to her, you can unearth the truth about the robbery and avenge the professor. Lorraine's eyes flickered.

"So what do you want?" There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and as a world-famous soothsayer, it is unlikely that Lorraine will use herself as bait in exchange for Leng Hannan's help.

She got up again, walked to the side, turned off the headlights in the living room, and then folded her fingers at me, and the two rows of buttons on her shirt were unbuttoned. The floor lamp in the corner of the house emitted a quiet glow, unfolding a large beautiful and eerie background behind her.

"Mr. Chen, two gold mines, a diamond mine, four tourmaline mines, and eleven coastal villas—are you interested in these? And I and all the magic weapons, secret tips, and elixirs that I have cultivated in divination for so many years are left for you. ”

Her eyes were full of bright spring, and she was not just a simple hypnotist, but a hybrid technique of soul shaking, aphrodisiac, and hypnosis.

"The conditions are very generous, really exciting, but what do I care about most about what do you want?" I deliberately didn't name the "cursed stone", just waiting for her to say it herself.

"I want that stone, Mr. Chen, and I can fulfill all my promises in twenty-four hours, as long as you get the 'Cursed Stone' back when you go to see Charlotte. I can have a hunch that she will fall in love with you at first sight and grant you any request. To prove my sincerity, I can fulfill some of my promises tonight, okay?"

Spring is quietly spreading in the living room, but my heart is already as calm as ice, and I won't touch her.

"Mr. Chen?" she leaned down, her fair breasts exuding a more seductive lip fragrance than that of a young girl. Professor Leng is a master in the archaeological field, but he has not practiced any clever martial arts, and when he encounters this kind of attack from Lorraine, he will naturally be unable to hold it and make some childish mistakes.

"I know what you mean, but I have two questions for me. First, you are a diviner, and you can detect the whereabouts of the "Wheel of the Sun" with a little trick, so why bother to find it with Professor Yu Leng? Second, what do you want that stone for? According to the explanation in the ancient Egyptian books, except for the pharaohs, only the cursed people need that stone to relieve bad luck. I like to figure things out before I do it, and I don't want to be used as a gun by others. ”

I'm not afraid of offending her, and I'm not interested in her body, so I dare to speak up.

Lorraine suddenly froze, staring at my face close at hand, and two lines of tears rolled down her eyes.

"It's mine, I can't tell you. She narrowed her eyes and suddenly understood my thoughts, and her body spun back to the sand opposite, and the buckle was re-fastened in an instant.

"Then I can't do anything, and I can't justify asking to see Lady Charlotte anytime soon. I can't help you with your business, please go and find a master again. ”

I will do what I should do without pay, and I will do what I should not do, and I will not be able to agree to it if the terms offered by Lorraine are ten times more generous.
