Chapter 1714 The Disappearing Foreign Woman【Two Chapters in One】
"Are you okay?" Seeing the nervousness of the man, Gu Chen also reminded him.
"It's okay." The man shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I was scalded by the boiling water just now."
While speaking, the man handed several cups of brewed tea to Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha respectively.
Officer Wang also asked him, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's your name?"
"It's just an unknown person in the antique world in Jiangnan City." The man grinned and introduced himself: "My name is Luo Ping."
"Mr. Luo, you haven't told us yet, is there such a number one person in this circle?" Gu Chen also continued to ask, always feeling that this Luo Ping knew something.
Luo Ping sat down leisurely, raised his legs and said, "Actually, the circle of antiques is not big, as long as you want to find someone, it's easy."
"As for the person you mentioned just now, I really only know one."
"Really?" Yuan Shasha immediately put down her teacup and asked, "Then tell me, what is this person's name? Where is he now?"
"Don't be in a hurry, drink tea first." Seeing that the policemen just came into the store, they seemed a little non-stop.
Luo Ping also laughed dryly, and quickly reminded: "This is all the best tea, and you all just happened to meet me opening the bag."
"But I still hope to find that person more than tea." Lu Weiwei also put down the teacup.
He didn't comment on the quality of the tea, but focused on the knight.
Seeing that everyone couldn't wait, Luo Ping couldn't hide anything, so he just reminded: "There is a man named Xu Feng, you can go and find out."
"Xu Feng?" Gu Chen heard the words and hurriedly recorded them, and also asked Luo Ping, "Is this person also an antique maker?"
"No, he doesn't deal in antiques. He's the owner of a car dealership, and he specializes in those cool retro locomotives."
"But a few years ago, he met a young woman, and I heard that the young woman seems to have dabbled in antiques."
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the man also calmly said, "Of course, these are all our hearsay."
"If you hadn't mentioned this just now, maybe I wouldn't necessarily remember it."
"The owner of the car dealership? Xu Feng?" Gu Chen added the details again, and then asked again: "Then do you know where his car dealership is?"
"Go here, go to the end, turn right, then turn left, you will find a back street, where his car dealership is, but..."
Luo Ping was halfway through speaking, but suddenly hesitated.
Gu Chen was also quite curious, so he asked him again: "Why does Boss Luo say half of what he said? Just what?"
"It's just that his car dealership doesn't seem to be in operation anymore. It's basically half-open and half-closed. I don't know the specific situation."
"If you want to find him, you might as well go and have a look, maybe he's still in the store at night."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Luo Ping, thank you for your cooperation." Now that Gu Chen got the clue, he wanted to check the situation as soon as possible.
Of course Luo Ping could see it, so he didn't try to keep him.
After the two groups exchanged simple greetings at the door, Gu Chen led everyone to Xu Feng's car dealership.
Since this is a pedestrian street in the ancient city, it is difficult for vehicles to enter.
Everyone can only choose to use the way of walking to quickly rush to the destination.
But when everyone came to the back street according to Luo Ping's words, they found that the shops here were generally not as lively as the old antique pedestrian street.
Although vehicles can enter and exit here, it is only a one-way lane.
The sound of the surrounding stores was generally deserted, but the fluorescent lights on the street kept flickering.
"Should it be here?" Lu Weiwei found a closed store. The sign on the store was already dilapidated. It was just a logo on a light box, which made people know that this was indeed a car dealership.
"Go and have a look." Gu Chen stepped forward and knocked on the rolling shutter door three times.
"Boom boom boom!"
As the sound of metal colliding sounded, there seemed to be no movement in the house.
Police Officer Wang said in amazement: "Is this guy not in the store? But it can also be open tonight. I see that these businesses around are open."
"Maybe they went out to eat?" Lu Weiwei hypothesized.
After all, there are still many snack bars in this back street.
Although the business of ordinary stores is not very good, the entrance of the snack bar is crowded with customers.
Yuan Shasha shook her head: "I don't know what happened, maybe he went to eat, or maybe he doesn't do evening business?"
"Whether it's true or not, we can just wait here." Officer Wang just wanted to sit on the sidelines, and he didn't want to take the initiative to attack.
So I chose to sit outside the rolling gate, found a random step and sat down.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other, they didn't want to waste time here, they wanted to take the initiative.
Originally, I wanted to find the man's phone number from the signboard, but the signboard was already damaged, and it was obvious that it hadn't been repaired in the past few years.
"Senior Sister Lu, Xiao Yuan, let's go to a nearby store to ask about the situation, and see if anyone knows where the owner of the car dealership has gone?"
"Yeah." Lu Weiwei nodded and said yes, expressing her agreement, and immediately prepared to go there with Gu Chen.
But just when Yuan Shasha was about to follow in the footsteps of the two, due to the dim light at the door of the store, Yuan Shasha tripped over the high and low steps in front of her, staggered immediately, and threw herself behind Gu Chen.
"Be careful." Gu Chen heard Yuan Shasha's shout, turned around, and directly protected Yuan Shasha's center of gravity.
"boom!"
Although she was caught by Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha's body still bumped into the rolling gate, instantly frightening a wild cat by the side of the road into the air, then turned around and ran into the corner.
"Are you okay, Xiao Yuan?" Gu Chen quickly asked about the situation.
"It's okay, thank you Senior Brother Gu, I didn't stand firm just now, the store here is closed, making the entrance of the store dark."
Yuan Shasha sighed heavily, feeling very embarrassed.
Lu Weiwei hurried over and grabbed Yuan Shasha's right hand: "Xiao Yuan, let me lead you away."
"Yeah." Yuan Shasha also grinned, ready to walk with Lu Weiwei.
But when the two of them walked three or four meters away, they found that Gu Chen stayed where he was.
So the two stopped again.
"Junior Brother Gu, why don't you leave?" Lu Weiwei turned her head, expressing her confusion.
But Gu Chen was not in a hurry to reply, but pressed twice on the rolling gate with his right hand, then shook it three times, and then lifted it up with both hands.
"Stab!"
With the sound of the rolling gate rising, Police Officer Wang who was sitting next to Gu Chen was also startled.
When I turned my head to look again, I found that Gu Chen had already opened the shutter of the store.
"This... isn't the door closed?" Police Officer Wang also quickly stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks and said.
Lu Weiwei also hurriedly grabbed Yuan Shasha, and the two came forward together.
"How could this be?"
"So the door wasn't locked?"
Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha were also surprised.
"No wonder when Xiao Yuan hit the rolling gate just now, he felt that the rolling gate was loose. So it was not locked?"
Just as everyone was curious, Gu Chen also expressed his thoughts just now.
This made Yuan Shasha look suspicious, and said curiously: "So Senior Brother Gu, you just heard the sound of me hitting the rolling gate, and you already heard something abnormal?"
"Yes." Gu Chen did not hide it, and said directly: "If the rolling gate is locked, the impact will never be so loose."
"There are quite a few rolling shutters in my store, and if you listen to them a lot, you will naturally be able to hear some tricks."
"My God, Brother Gu's ears are smooth, right? Can you hear something abnormal?" Although Gu Chen gave a reasonable explanation.
But for Yuan Shasha, Gu Chen still feels a little against the sky.
Ordinary people wouldn't care about such subtle clues at all, but Gu Chen can accurately judge whether the rolling gate is locked or not just by hearing the sound of the impact.
It has to be said that Gu Chen's observation ability is indeed unmatched by ordinary people.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Officer Wang continued to hold the rolling gate with both hands and lifted it up.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him made Police Officer Wang stunned for a moment.
The entire store was dark and smelled very strong.
Gu Chen took out a bright flashlight, turned it on, and scanned the inside of the store.
Only then did I realize that except for a retro motorcycle left in the store, there were almost no other vehicles in sight.
The smell of oil stains was everywhere on the ground, and the wrenches were scattered all over the ground.
Also while searching, Gu Chen found the direction of the switch, then hurried over and pushed the air switch upwards.
Then, the bright light in my mind didn't appear.
So Gu Chen pressed the light switch again, and pressed it repeatedly, but there was no response.
"Don't press it anymore, I owe the electricity bill here, and the electricity has been cut off a long time ago."
Just as Gu Chen was looking for the power switch repeatedly, a man suddenly heard the sound of a man.
Lu Weiwei was also taken aback, and quickly turned around and asked, "Who are you? Where are you?"
"Then where do you think I am?"
In the whole store, there was a man's movement suddenly.
Using master-level observation skills, Gu Chen quickly discovered that the source of the sound came from the second floor of the compartment.
So Gu Chen shot the bright flashlight over, and asked to the second floor of the second floor, "Excuse me, are you Xu Feng?"
"Yes so what? No so what?"
Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, the man's movement came again from the second floor of the second floor.
The man spoke weakly, it seemed that Gu Chen and others disturbed his rest.
The surrounding darkness also made this environment look very strange.
Lu Weiwei took out her strong flashlight, and according to Gu Chen's light guidance, she irradiated it a few times in the direction of the sound source, and asked curiously:
"Hey! Are you a human or a ghost? Can you speak normally?"
"Boom...boom boom boom!"
Just as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, everyone heard a wine bottle suddenly fall from the second floor of the compartment.
The wine bottle bounced a few times on the ground on the second floor of the compartment, and then rolled all the way until it appeared in front of everyone's field of vision, but landed vertically from the corner.
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound of glass, the empty wine bottle smashed into pieces in front of everyone.
Both Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha couldn't help but took a step back.
"What are you doing?" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but frowned slightly, and asked the man above, "Are you drunk?"
The voice fell, and the man who was still moving before seemed to have no intention of replying.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei snorted coldly and said, "What's the matter with you? It's late at night, close the door of the store, and drink alone in it?"
Looking down at the huge space on the first floor, there was only one locomotive parked.
Lu Weiwei also asked him curiously: "Hey, why does your dealership only have one car? Is it all sold out?"
After the voice fell, there was still no movement upstairs.
This made everyone anxious.
Before Gu Chen came here, he had inquired from Luo Ping, the owner of the antique shop, that the owner of this car dealership was named Xu Feng, and he might be the same person who bought the bloody ancient jade from the old man with white beard He Shaoqing a few years ago.
So he yelled upstairs: "Xu Feng, is that you? Are you drunk?"
"I... I'm not drunk."
This time, the movement of the man on the second floor came again after disappearing for a while.
This time, everyone finally heard the man's drunken voice, and it was confirmed that this guy must have been drinking.
"Brother Gu, you can go up here." Yuan Shasha pointed to a step on the right.
"Go and have a look." Gu Chen still doesn't know, what is the current situation of this boss named Xu Feng?
So he led everyone, stepping on the steel steps on the right, step by step to the second floor.
"Dong dong dong dong!"
There was a lot of movement when everyone went upstairs, but when Gu Chen was the first to walk up to the second floor compartment, he was startled by the scene in front of him.
"This?"
Gu Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"What's the situation, Junior Brother Gu?" Lu Weiwei looked curious and walked to Gu Chen's side.
Turning his head to look, he couldn't help but marvel: "This?"
"What's the matter, Senior Brother Gu, Senior Sister Lu?" Yuan Shasha didn't know why, so she hurried forward to take a look.
"This?"
"Hey! What's wrong with the three of you? Why are you talking exactly the same?" Police Officer Wang, who was walking in the back row, felt the atmosphere was weird, and immediately pushed a few people away, and he walked up the steps first.
And use the bright flashlight in your hand to shine twice on the area in front of you.
"This... What the hell is going on here? How come there are so many empty wine bottles?"
When Police Officer Wang saw the scene in front of him, he was immediately frightened.
It feels like if the first floor is a venue for selling cars, then the second floor is more like a beer warehouse.
Counting from the empty bottle under Police Officer Wang's feet, the number of empty bottles on the entire second floor is in the hundreds or so just by visual inspection.
And in the middle of these empty bottles, there is a folding bed.
A drunk man was lying there at the moment.
Gu Chen led Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha, and at this time also came up from the left and right sides of Police Officer Wang.
Everyone illuminated the area on the second floor with strong flashlights, and everyone looked at each other, feeling that this man was a bit weird.
"Xu Feng?" Gu Chen asked him.
The man snorted and said, "Why are you looking for me?"
"You really are Xu Feng!" Hearing the man's words, Gu Chen basically concluded that this guy should be Xu Feng, the owner of the car dealership.
Looking at his face, he is almost 40 years old, but it is really incomprehensible to live such a decadent life.
The man was lying on a folding bed with his head hanging in the air, and he was lying on his back looking at several people.
"Huh? Why are you all upside down? Are you bats?"
"Are you a bat attribute?" Feeling that Xu Feng was really drunk, Lu Weiwei stepped forward and put the bright flashlight aside.
Use the refracted light of the strong flashlight to illuminate the second-floor compartment brightly.
Seeing this, Gu Chen and the others temporarily turned off the bright flashlights in their hands and came to the man.
Supporting the man with both hands, Gu Chen sat up the man and asked, "Do you want some water?"
"Uh, is there... is there any water?" The man seemed to be very thirsty, and his lips looked very dry.
Without thinking too much, Gu Chen directly took down his police water bottle, straightened the man upright, and fed him a few mouthfuls of boiling water.
"Grumbling..."
The man can't seem to stop drinking water.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also reminded: "You drink slowly, and no one will snatch it from you?"
Looking around, I saw the empty wine bottles all over the floor, including beer bottles, liquor bottles, and red wine bottles.
Lu Weiwei also had a big head: "Why do you drink so much wine? Also, don't you know how to clean up?"
"If it doesn't work, go to the door and ask a few old men and women who buy scraps to come and help you take away the wine bottles. Empty wine bottles can also be sold for money."
"Hic!" Hearing Lu Weiwei's "lesson", the man also hiccupped, and then coughed twice.
Seeing this, Yuan Shasha quickly patted him on the back, feeling that this man doesn't know how to take care of herself at all, and her life is simply a mess.
Officer Wang also said angrily: "Brother, what's the matter with you? Look at you, it seems that you haven't drank water for a few days."
"Anything to eat?"
As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, the man over there asked about food.
"You haven't eaten for a long time, have you?" Hearing the man's weak tone, Lu Weiwei was also confused.
"Give me something to eat." The man sighed, also in a begging tone.
Lu Weiwei was speechless, but still kindly took out two Snickers bars from the police bag, handed them to the man, and said, "Hungry, take them and eat them, it's time for you to sweep away the hunger."
Seeing Lu Weiwei handing over the food, the man quickly grabbed it, tore open the package and started to gobble it up.
Two Snickers bars seem to be able to relieve a man's hunger.
In addition to drinking the boiled water provided by Gu Chen just now, the man at this time seems to have gradually regained some physical strength.
Officer Wang leaned forward, also staring at the man in front of him, and said, "Brother, what's the matter with you? Is it because you have trouble walking or what?"
"My hands and feet are fine." The man gasped.
"You look like a starving ghost, don't you know how to order takeaway?" Officer Wang asked.
After taking the last bite of a Snickers bar, the man said slowly, "Maybe alcohol has paralyzed me. I seem to be a waste."
"What happened?" Gu Chen was also at a loss, and hurriedly asked the man, "I heard you used to drive?"
"But what about your cars? They're all sold out? Also, what's going on with so many empty wine bottles?"
"Hehe." The man laughed dryly when he heard Gu Chen's words, shook his head and sighed: "I feel like I'm a waste, I don't know what's wrong with me? Why did I become like this?"
"What happened?" Lu Weiwei was very worried about the man's situation.
A person can be so decadent that he can lock himself in the attic of the store and drink up these hundreds of bottles of wine, it feels a little scary for this person.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, turned on the law enforcement recorder, pointed it at the man, and asked, "I'm here to ask you now, are you Xu Feng?"
"Is it important?" The man looked at Gu Chen with a confused expression.
Gu Chen continued to remind: "You just need to answer my question honestly, are you Xu Feng?"
Faced with another question from Gu Chen, the man nodded and said, "Yes, I am."
"Very good." Gu Chen stood up straight, took out the notebook, and asked him curiously, "Then what's your situation now? Have you been robbed or something? Where are the cars at your dealership?"
"Sold out." Xu Feng said.
"Sold out?" Hearing Xu Feng's remarks, Yuan Shasha nodded silently, and also thoughtfully said: "That means the business is okay, but it's sold out, won't you buy more?"
"I don't want to do business anymore. I feel like my energy has been drained." The man closed his eyes and propped his hands on the bed to maintain his sitting posture.
Police officer Wang was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Did you...have you been hit by something?"
"That's right." Xu Feng nodded silently, and said with a wry smile: "Since she disappeared from my world, I feel like I'm useless, and I don't have the energy to do anything."
"At first, I was able to control my emotions, but then I couldn't hold back anymore. As she disappeared from my world longer, I felt more and more that I might no longer have the energy to maintain the business. I... can't live without her."
"Her?" Gu Chen felt that the "she" Xu Feng said was obviously a woman.
I can think of the words of Luo Ping, the owner of the antique shop, and the old man He Shaoqing of Hejia Village in Gaoquling.
Gu Chen can basically judge now that this guy named Xu Feng may be the one who bought Uncle He Shaoqing's bloody ancient jade back then.
And that woman may be his girlfriend.
"But how did Xu Feng become like this? Could it be that he was cursed by the bloody ancient jade?"
Gu Chen thought in his heart, but quickly vetoed himself, feeling that the matter was not that simple.
Lu Weiwei also said impatiently: "I said Xu Feng, is it because your girlfriend left you that you became like this?"
"Hmm." Xu Feng also said weakly when he heard Lu Weiwei's speech.
Lu Weiwei glanced at Gu Chen, then asked Xu Feng again: "Xu...Xu Feng, where is your girlfriend?"
"do not know!"
The three words "I don't know" came out of Xu Feng's mouth, dragging on for a long time.
Police Officer Wang said impatiently: "Can you not speak like this? Can you speak quickly? It really makes people anxious."
"Senior Brother Wang." Gu Chen glanced at Police Officer Wang, and also reminded with his eyes: "He is not emotionally stable right now, so don't worry."
"Okay." Officer Wang waved his hand, feeling that this matter has to be left to Gu Chen.
So Gu Chen also asked softly: "Xu Feng, what's the situation with your girlfriend? What's her name? Why did she leave your side? What happened here?"
After the voice fell, the entire second-floor compartment suddenly fell silent.
Everyone turned their eyes to Xu Feng, waiting for Xu Feng to explain himself.
At this time, Xu Feng seemed to be trying hard to recall, trying to wake himself up from his confused state.
After a while, Xu Feng, who was trying to calm down, said slowly:
"A few years ago, I met a Southeast Asian woman named Tessa when I was traveling, but half a year ago, she suddenly disappeared from my world."
"Southeast Asian woman, Tessa?" Gu Chen heard the words, quickly recorded these, and asked: "So these years, have there been stories between you?"
"En." Xu Feng nodded silently, and began to tell all the things that happened:
"A few years ago, when I was traveling in Fujian Province, I met her by accident."
"At that time, she told me that she wanted to come here to record her travel process and her own story in China."
"And she speaks Chinese very well, and she knows our cultural customs very well, and she is very close to me."
"So at that time, I handed over the work of the car dealership to the store manager, and promised to stay with her and help her record everything."
"In this way, year after year, we have always stayed together, almost seeing each other often."
After a pause, Xu Feng let out a long sigh, and said helplessly, "But just half a year ago, I suddenly received a message from her."
"In the news, she told me that staying in China for the past few years has made her very happy, and she also thanked me for helping her record in obscurity."
"However, she wants to leave now and told me not to miss it."
Speaking of this, Xu Feng felt aggrieved in his heart, and with a mournful face, he looked at Gu Chen and the others and said, "For a few years, I thought the two of us would get married and live together."
"But she told me that she had to go back, just leave a word like that, and the person disappeared like that? I... Who the hell should I ask for reasoning?"
Hearing Xu Feng crying here, Gu Chen probably also knew that Xu Feng probably had feelings for this woman.
And between the two, they may have been together as lovers in the past few years.
So the woman's sudden departure made it difficult for Xu Feng to accept for a while.
Over time, under the constant mental torture, the whole person finally collapsed and became helpless.
"Xu Feng, has this woman named Tessa never contacted you since she left you?" Gu Chen asked.
Xu Feng nodded silently, sniffed, then nodded and sighed: "It's been half a year, I don't know what I did wrong? She just left without saying goodbye?"
"But in the past few years, my business has been neglected, and I have almost accompanied her on various trips, traveling all over the world."
"The two of us even...even..."
Speaking of this, Xu Feng also let out a long sigh, and said again: "To be honest, the two of us have already had a good time together, and I can tell that Tessa likes me."
"I gave her everything I had and was willing to do anything for her. I really didn't feel sorry for her, but why did she leave me?"
"But...maybe, her family is in a hurry, so..."
"impossible."
Before Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Xu Feng over there directly retorted: "Is there something urgent at home? She can communicate with me."
"But her departure this time has made me realize that something is wrong."
"How do you say it?" Gu Chen seemed to have heard something tricky, so he hurriedly asked again.
Xu Feng took a deep breath, and couldn't help sighing: "I rented a house for her in Jiangnan City. We usually live together, but because of the work in the store, I sometimes stay here."
"Of course, I don't travel with her all the time. Sometimes she won't let me follow and wants to go out alone, but we call every day."
"But when I got that farewell text, I realized something was wrong, so I closed the shop early that day and ran to our rented place."
"But then I realized that everything about Tessa in the room had been taken away."
"Tessa took all her things away, but only left me a farewell text message. What does she think of me? What are we these years?"
"Could it be your wishful thinking?" Yuan Shasha also felt that this Xu Feng seemed to be a little crazy.
For a so-called foreign woman Tessa, the whole person is decadent, there must be something wrong with it.
Xu Feng shook his head silently, and after a short dry laugh, he said again:
"At first, I thought she was teasing me? So after I received this farewell text message, I didn't reply to her again."
"I thought she would take the initiative to contact me in a few days, but that's not the case."
"Tessa just disappeared from my world. She didn't contact me again. It wasn't until a week after I got the text that I realized that maybe this time it was real."
After a pause, Xu Feng also said nervously: "After all, in the past few years, we have never quarreled, and we have always gotten along very well."
"It's not normal for her to leave suddenly and just leave a text saying goodbye."
"But when I realized that all of this might be true, it wasn't a joke. I couldn't get in touch with Tessa anymore. She couldn't get through on the phone, and all her social accounts were cleared, as if she had never been here before."
"Yeah." Gu Chen recorded all this, and asked again: "So she hasn't looked for you again, maybe she doesn't want to contact you again."
"No, it won't, she must have encountered some difficulties." Xu Feng seems not to give up until now.
Lu Weiwei really couldn't stand it anymore, and said earnestly: "I said Xu Feng, you should be very clear that I haven't contacted you for half a year, and it's clear that the two of you are over."
"If this Tessa likes you, then she will never leave without saying goodbye, nor will she make the two-year relationship so unfeeling."
"Hehe." Hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I'm not very capable, I don't know how to keep anyone away, and I'm not good at managing interpersonal relationships."
"I only know that if you treat me well, I will treat you better, and if you neglect me, I will walk away."
"You don't look for me, and I don't look for you, each is happy."
With a faint sigh, Xu Feng said again: "At first, I felt that it didn't matter whether I was disappointed or not. Anyway, I didn't try to please anyone, and I didn't wrong myself."
"As for the last one left by your side, then... that's who."
"But now it seems that I'm really tired. I don't want to quarrel with anyone, and I don't want to quarrel with anyone. Sometimes I feel sad for myself when I look at the story between me and her."
Wiping the teardrops from the corner of his eyes with his rough right hand, Xu Feng also choked up and said:
"You can hide your smile from everyone, but you can't hide your heartache from yourself. Any relationship is mutual."
"People are scattered because they don't hesitate, and people are cold because they are not true." Gu Chen looked up at Xu Feng, and couldn't help but said with emotion:
"What people fear most is deception after trust, indifference after initiative, chilling after dedication, estrangement after intimacy, boredom after familiarity, perfunctory after affection, separation after getting acquainted, and loss after cherishing."
"But Xu Feng, we can all be a special flower, we can grow as we want, we don't have to grow into roses, even if the whole world is expecting us to grow into roses, we still have to be ourselves. "
"That's right." Police officer Wang listened to Xu Feng's nagging for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back, and couldn't help complaining:
"The main reason why you are too tired is that you are too sensitive and too soft-hearted."
"No matter how estranged you and this Tessa are in the end? But if the friendship between you was true, then it will be regarded as a breakup, and don't let down the encounter. I hope you don't regret knowing each other. It is also true. Be happy."
After thinking about it, Yuan Shasha also said: "If you want me to say, kind people always give others a feeling that they have no bottom line, so others like to ignore you unscrupulously, saying that you have no sense of existence, they always think that they are the most powerful .”
Shaking her head, Yuan Shasha couldn't help laughing: "It's really ridiculous."
"Isn't it?" Lu Weiwei sighed, seeing Xu Feng being so decadent, she felt that she had to give him a hand too.
After all, Lu Weiwei is serious about doing all kinds of ideological work for the masses. She doesn't know how many times she has met just by saving the young man who jumped off the building.
Facing this Xu Feng, he felt that he should have lost his youthful impulse, but at least judging from his reluctant attitude, it seemed that he was serious about his relationship.
So Lu Weiwei couldn't help sighing: "Xu Feng, do you know that there are actually such people in the world?"
"You mean..." Xu Feng was puzzled.
But Lu Weiwei said indifferently: "It's just that I have never been treated kindly, but I am kind to others everywhere, and I am good at comforting others even though no one understands me."
"That's right." Xu Feng seemed to agree, feeling that this was very similar to himself.
Seeing this situation, Lu Weiwei continued to complain: "Obviously my life is not satisfactory, but it happens that I can't see the suffering in the world."
"The so-called doctor does not heal himself, and heals others but not himself. This kindness that ignores oneself is called gentleness."
"If your relationship with Tessa is true, then I wish you all the best, even if Tessa leaves, so what? At least you have been together, isn't it good to keep it as a memory?"
After seeing Lu Weiwei's psychological counseling, Xu Feng's expression changed obviously to a certain extent.
Gu Chen thought that he came to investigate Xu Feng this time because he wanted to know the whereabouts of the bloody ancient jade.
After all, the transaction of this piece of Xueqin Ancient Jade back then was a bit bizarre, and I learned from the old man He Shaoqing of Hejia Village in Gaoquling that the buyer bought that piece of Xueqin Ancient Jade to give to his girlfriend.
Riding a motorcycle from afar, spending 6000 yuan, just for this?Obviously, only Xu Feng in front of him could do it.
At first, Gu Chen felt that this man seemed to know some antiques.
No matter how you look at it, it seems that there are bad intentions in giving your girlfriend the bloody ancient jade.
But now, it seems that Gu Chen's previous speculation has to be overthrown and start over.
It was obvious that Xu Feng was being manipulated to death by that foreign woman named Tessa.
In this way, Gu Chen can also understand that Tessa's sudden departure can indeed make this guy named Xu Feng a completely different person.
"Xu Feng, let me ask you, a few years ago, did you ride a motorcycle to Hejia Village in Gaoquling?"
After thinking about it, Gu Chen still asked the question he wanted to know.
When Xu Feng heard this, his eyes couldn't help being taken aback: "You... how do you know?"
"Don't worry about how I know, just tell me, what are you doing in Hejia Village, Gaoquling?"
"What are you going to do?" Xu Feng lowered his head and thought about it for a few seconds, and then said slowly: "I remember, I rode a motorcycle to Hejia Village, Gaoquling a few years ago, as if to buy a piece of ancient jade."
"Did you go there specifically to buy this ancient jade? Or did you go over there to join in the fun and then buy that ancient jade?" Lu Weiwei was also nervous, afraid that Xu Feng's answer would not be the answer she wanted.
But after Xu Feng thought about it for a few seconds, he blurted out: "If you don't tell me, I'll almost forget it."
"I remember that it was Tessa's intention to go to Hejia Village in Gaoquling."
"What does Tessa mean?"
Hearing Xu Feng's remarks, everyone looked at each other, feeling that there seemed to be something tricky about it.
At first, everyone thought that Xu Feng had ulterior motives.
If you were an ordinary woman who didn't know much about antiques, then this bloody ancient jade might win the woman's heart.
But listening to what Xu Feng said now, it's completely different things.
It seems that from the very beginning, the cart has been turned upside down.
And this Tessa seems to be the real expert hiding behind.
"I told you to go to Gaoquling, Hejia Village, just to buy that piece of ancient jade. You haven't countered the price yet. It can be seen that Tessa is bound to get this piece of ancient jade."
Gu Chen muttered to himself, feeling that the weirdness in it was completely beyond his imagination.
But after a while, Gu Chen raised his head and asked again: "But Xu Feng, how can you be sure that the ancient jade you bought is exactly what Tessa wanted?"
"I don't know about that either." Xu Feng didn't seem to think too much about it back then.
Lu Weiwei said impatiently: "You can't be unclear, you have to be clear, how are you sure that the piece of ancient jade you want to buy must be what Tessa wants?"
"Maybe Tessa has seen it before?" Shaking his head, Xu Feng also looked innocent:
"I'm really not sure about this, but Tessa told me at the time that I heard that there is a piece of ancient jade with totems and symbols in He Shaoqing's home in Gaoquling He Village, which is quite beautiful."
"When she said that, I would definitely buy it for her, so I agreed to go to Hejia Village in Gaoquling to buy back that ancient jade for her."
"So when you bought it, you checked it on the spot?" Gu Chen asked.
Xu Feng nodded silently: "Yes, it was indeed confirmed. I took a picture and sent it to her, and she asked me to buy it as a birthday present for her. Just pay as much as you want, and there is no bargaining at all."

(End of this chapter)
"Are you okay?" Seeing the nervousness of the man, Gu Chen also reminded him.
"It's okay." The man shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I was scalded by the boiling water just now."
While speaking, the man handed several cups of brewed tea to Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Police Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha respectively.
Officer Wang also asked him, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's your name?"
"It's just an unknown person in the antique world in Jiangnan City." The man grinned and introduced himself: "My name is Luo Ping."
"Mr. Luo, you haven't told us yet, is there such a number one person in this circle?" Gu Chen also continued to ask, always feeling that this Luo Ping knew something.
Luo Ping sat down leisurely, raised his legs and said, "Actually, the circle of antiques is not big, as long as you want to find someone, it's easy."
"As for the person you mentioned just now, I really only know one."
"Really?" Yuan Shasha immediately put down her teacup and asked, "Then tell me, what is this person's name? Where is he now?"
"Don't be in a hurry, drink tea first." Seeing that the policemen just came into the store, they seemed a little non-stop.
Luo Ping also laughed dryly, and quickly reminded: "This is all the best tea, and you all just happened to meet me opening the bag."
"But I still hope to find that person more than tea." Lu Weiwei also put down the teacup.
He didn't comment on the quality of the tea, but focused on the knight.
Seeing that everyone couldn't wait, Luo Ping couldn't hide anything, so he just reminded: "There is a man named Xu Feng, you can go and find out."
"Xu Feng?" Gu Chen heard the words and hurriedly recorded them, and also asked Luo Ping, "Is this person also an antique maker?"
"No, he doesn't deal in antiques. He's the owner of a car dealership, and he specializes in those cool retro locomotives."
"But a few years ago, he met a young woman, and I heard that the young woman seems to have dabbled in antiques."
Looking up at Gu Chen and the others, the man also calmly said, "Of course, these are all our hearsay."
"If you hadn't mentioned this just now, maybe I wouldn't necessarily remember it."
"The owner of the car dealership? Xu Feng?" Gu Chen added the details again, and then asked again: "Then do you know where his car dealership is?"
"Go here, go to the end, turn right, then turn left, you will find a back street, where his car dealership is, but..."
Luo Ping was halfway through speaking, but suddenly hesitated.
Gu Chen was also quite curious, so he asked him again: "Why does Boss Luo say half of what he said? Just what?"
"It's just that his car dealership doesn't seem to be in operation anymore. It's basically half-open and half-closed. I don't know the specific situation."
"If you want to find him, you might as well go and have a look, maybe he's still in the store at night."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Luo Ping, thank you for your cooperation." Now that Gu Chen got the clue, he wanted to check the situation as soon as possible.
Of course Luo Ping could see it, so he didn't try to keep him.
After the two groups exchanged simple greetings at the door, Gu Chen led everyone to Xu Feng's car dealership.
Since this is a pedestrian street in the ancient city, it is difficult for vehicles to enter.
Everyone can only choose to use the way of walking to quickly rush to the destination.
But when everyone came to the back street according to Luo Ping's words, they found that the shops here were generally not as lively as the old antique pedestrian street.
Although vehicles can enter and exit here, it is only a one-way lane.
The sound of the surrounding stores was generally deserted, but the fluorescent lights on the street kept flickering.
"Should it be here?" Lu Weiwei found a closed store. The sign on the store was already dilapidated. It was just a logo on a light box, which made people know that this was indeed a car dealership.
"Go and have a look." Gu Chen stepped forward and knocked on the rolling shutter door three times.
"Boom boom boom!"
As the sound of metal colliding sounded, there seemed to be no movement in the house.
Police Officer Wang said in amazement: "Is this guy not in the store? But it can also be open tonight. I see that these businesses around are open."
"Maybe they went out to eat?" Lu Weiwei hypothesized.
After all, there are still many snack bars in this back street.
Although the business of ordinary stores is not very good, the entrance of the snack bar is crowded with customers.
Yuan Shasha shook her head: "I don't know what happened, maybe he went to eat, or maybe he doesn't do evening business?"
"Whether it's true or not, we can just wait here." Officer Wang just wanted to sit on the sidelines, and he didn't want to take the initiative to attack.
So I chose to sit outside the rolling gate, found a random step and sat down.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei looked at each other, they didn't want to waste time here, they wanted to take the initiative.
Originally, I wanted to find the man's phone number from the signboard, but the signboard was already damaged, and it was obvious that it hadn't been repaired in the past few years.
"Senior Sister Lu, Xiao Yuan, let's go to a nearby store to ask about the situation, and see if anyone knows where the owner of the car dealership has gone?"
"Yeah." Lu Weiwei nodded and said yes, expressing her agreement, and immediately prepared to go there with Gu Chen.
But just when Yuan Shasha was about to follow in the footsteps of the two, due to the dim light at the door of the store, Yuan Shasha tripped over the high and low steps in front of her, staggered immediately, and threw herself behind Gu Chen.
"Be careful." Gu Chen heard Yuan Shasha's shout, turned around, and directly protected Yuan Shasha's center of gravity.
"boom!"
Although she was caught by Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha's body still bumped into the rolling gate, instantly frightening a wild cat by the side of the road into the air, then turned around and ran into the corner.
"Are you okay, Xiao Yuan?" Gu Chen quickly asked about the situation.
"It's okay, thank you Senior Brother Gu, I didn't stand firm just now, the store here is closed, making the entrance of the store dark."
Yuan Shasha sighed heavily, feeling very embarrassed.
Lu Weiwei hurried over and grabbed Yuan Shasha's right hand: "Xiao Yuan, let me lead you away."
"Yeah." Yuan Shasha also grinned, ready to walk with Lu Weiwei.
But when the two of them walked three or four meters away, they found that Gu Chen stayed where he was.
So the two stopped again.
"Junior Brother Gu, why don't you leave?" Lu Weiwei turned her head, expressing her confusion.
But Gu Chen was not in a hurry to reply, but pressed twice on the rolling gate with his right hand, then shook it three times, and then lifted it up with both hands.
"Stab!"
With the sound of the rolling gate rising, Police Officer Wang who was sitting next to Gu Chen was also startled.
When I turned my head to look again, I found that Gu Chen had already opened the shutter of the store.
"This... isn't the door closed?" Police Officer Wang also quickly stood up, patted the dust on his buttocks and said.
Lu Weiwei also hurriedly grabbed Yuan Shasha, and the two came forward together.
"How could this be?"
"So the door wasn't locked?"
Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha were also surprised.
"No wonder when Xiao Yuan hit the rolling gate just now, he felt that the rolling gate was loose. So it was not locked?"
Just as everyone was curious, Gu Chen also expressed his thoughts just now.
This made Yuan Shasha look suspicious, and said curiously: "So Senior Brother Gu, you just heard the sound of me hitting the rolling gate, and you already heard something abnormal?"
"Yes." Gu Chen did not hide it, and said directly: "If the rolling gate is locked, the impact will never be so loose."
"There are quite a few rolling shutters in my store, and if you listen to them a lot, you will naturally be able to hear some tricks."
"My God, Brother Gu's ears are smooth, right? Can you hear something abnormal?" Although Gu Chen gave a reasonable explanation.
But for Yuan Shasha, Gu Chen still feels a little against the sky.
Ordinary people wouldn't care about such subtle clues at all, but Gu Chen can accurately judge whether the rolling gate is locked or not just by hearing the sound of the impact.
It has to be said that Gu Chen's observation ability is indeed unmatched by ordinary people.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Officer Wang continued to hold the rolling gate with both hands and lifted it up.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him made Police Officer Wang stunned for a moment.
The entire store was dark and smelled very strong.
Gu Chen took out a bright flashlight, turned it on, and scanned the inside of the store.
Only then did I realize that except for a retro motorcycle left in the store, there were almost no other vehicles in sight.
The smell of oil stains was everywhere on the ground, and the wrenches were scattered all over the ground.
Also while searching, Gu Chen found the direction of the switch, then hurried over and pushed the air switch upwards.
Then, the bright light in my mind didn't appear.
So Gu Chen pressed the light switch again, and pressed it repeatedly, but there was no response.
"Don't press it anymore, I owe the electricity bill here, and the electricity has been cut off a long time ago."
Just as Gu Chen was looking for the power switch repeatedly, a man suddenly heard the sound of a man.
Lu Weiwei was also taken aback, and quickly turned around and asked, "Who are you? Where are you?"
"Then where do you think I am?"
In the whole store, there was a man's movement suddenly.
Using master-level observation skills, Gu Chen quickly discovered that the source of the sound came from the second floor of the compartment.
So Gu Chen shot the bright flashlight over, and asked to the second floor of the second floor, "Excuse me, are you Xu Feng?"
"Yes so what? No so what?"
Just as Gu Chen finished speaking, the man's movement came again from the second floor of the second floor.
The man spoke weakly, it seemed that Gu Chen and others disturbed his rest.
The surrounding darkness also made this environment look very strange.
Lu Weiwei took out her strong flashlight, and according to Gu Chen's light guidance, she irradiated it a few times in the direction of the sound source, and asked curiously:
"Hey! Are you a human or a ghost? Can you speak normally?"
"Boom...boom boom boom!"
Just as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, everyone heard a wine bottle suddenly fall from the second floor of the compartment.
The wine bottle bounced a few times on the ground on the second floor of the compartment, and then rolled all the way until it appeared in front of everyone's field of vision, but landed vertically from the corner.
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound of glass, the empty wine bottle smashed into pieces in front of everyone.
Both Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha couldn't help but took a step back.
"What are you doing?" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but frowned slightly, and asked the man above, "Are you drunk?"
The voice fell, and the man who was still moving before seemed to have no intention of replying.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei snorted coldly and said, "What's the matter with you? It's late at night, close the door of the store, and drink alone in it?"
Looking down at the huge space on the first floor, there was only one locomotive parked.
Lu Weiwei also asked him curiously: "Hey, why does your dealership only have one car? Is it all sold out?"
After the voice fell, there was still no movement upstairs.
This made everyone anxious.
Before Gu Chen came here, he had inquired from Luo Ping, the owner of the antique shop, that the owner of this car dealership was named Xu Feng, and he might be the same person who bought the bloody ancient jade from the old man with white beard He Shaoqing a few years ago.
So he yelled upstairs: "Xu Feng, is that you? Are you drunk?"
"I... I'm not drunk."
This time, the movement of the man on the second floor came again after disappearing for a while.
This time, everyone finally heard the man's drunken voice, and it was confirmed that this guy must have been drinking.
"Brother Gu, you can go up here." Yuan Shasha pointed to a step on the right.
"Go and have a look." Gu Chen still doesn't know, what is the current situation of this boss named Xu Feng?
So he led everyone, stepping on the steel steps on the right, step by step to the second floor.
"Dong dong dong dong!"
There was a lot of movement when everyone went upstairs, but when Gu Chen was the first to walk up to the second floor compartment, he was startled by the scene in front of him.
"This?"
Gu Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"What's the situation, Junior Brother Gu?" Lu Weiwei looked curious and walked to Gu Chen's side.
Turning his head to look, he couldn't help but marvel: "This?"
"What's the matter, Senior Brother Gu, Senior Sister Lu?" Yuan Shasha didn't know why, so she hurried forward to take a look.
"This?"
"Hey! What's wrong with the three of you? Why are you talking exactly the same?" Police Officer Wang, who was walking in the back row, felt the atmosphere was weird, and immediately pushed a few people away, and he walked up the steps first.
And use the bright flashlight in your hand to shine twice on the area in front of you.
"This... What the hell is going on here? How come there are so many empty wine bottles?"
When Police Officer Wang saw the scene in front of him, he was immediately frightened.
It feels like if the first floor is a venue for selling cars, then the second floor is more like a beer warehouse.
Counting from the empty bottle under Police Officer Wang's feet, the number of empty bottles on the entire second floor is in the hundreds or so just by visual inspection.
And in the middle of these empty bottles, there is a folding bed.
A drunk man was lying there at the moment.
Gu Chen led Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha, and at this time also came up from the left and right sides of Police Officer Wang.
Everyone illuminated the area on the second floor with strong flashlights, and everyone looked at each other, feeling that this man was a bit weird.
"Xu Feng?" Gu Chen asked him.
The man snorted and said, "Why are you looking for me?"
"You really are Xu Feng!" Hearing the man's words, Gu Chen basically concluded that this guy should be Xu Feng, the owner of the car dealership.
Looking at his face, he is almost 40 years old, but it is really incomprehensible to live such a decadent life.
The man was lying on a folding bed with his head hanging in the air, and he was lying on his back looking at several people.
"Huh? Why are you all upside down? Are you bats?"
"Are you a bat attribute?" Feeling that Xu Feng was really drunk, Lu Weiwei stepped forward and put the bright flashlight aside.
Use the refracted light of the strong flashlight to illuminate the second-floor compartment brightly.
Seeing this, Gu Chen and the others temporarily turned off the bright flashlights in their hands and came to the man.
Supporting the man with both hands, Gu Chen sat up the man and asked, "Do you want some water?"
"Uh, is there... is there any water?" The man seemed to be very thirsty, and his lips looked very dry.
Without thinking too much, Gu Chen directly took down his police water bottle, straightened the man upright, and fed him a few mouthfuls of boiling water.
"Grumbling..."
The man can't seem to stop drinking water.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also reminded: "You drink slowly, and no one will snatch it from you?"
Looking around, I saw the empty wine bottles all over the floor, including beer bottles, liquor bottles, and red wine bottles.
Lu Weiwei also had a big head: "Why do you drink so much wine? Also, don't you know how to clean up?"
"If it doesn't work, go to the door and ask a few old men and women who buy scraps to come and help you take away the wine bottles. Empty wine bottles can also be sold for money."
"Hic!" Hearing Lu Weiwei's "lesson", the man also hiccupped, and then coughed twice.
Seeing this, Yuan Shasha quickly patted him on the back, feeling that this man doesn't know how to take care of herself at all, and her life is simply a mess.
Officer Wang also said angrily: "Brother, what's the matter with you? Look at you, it seems that you haven't drank water for a few days."
"Anything to eat?"
As soon as Police Officer Wang finished speaking, the man over there asked about food.
"You haven't eaten for a long time, have you?" Hearing the man's weak tone, Lu Weiwei was also confused.
"Give me something to eat." The man sighed, also in a begging tone.
Lu Weiwei was speechless, but still kindly took out two Snickers bars from the police bag, handed them to the man, and said, "Hungry, take them and eat them, it's time for you to sweep away the hunger."
Seeing Lu Weiwei handing over the food, the man quickly grabbed it, tore open the package and started to gobble it up.
Two Snickers bars seem to be able to relieve a man's hunger.
In addition to drinking the boiled water provided by Gu Chen just now, the man at this time seems to have gradually regained some physical strength.
Officer Wang leaned forward, also staring at the man in front of him, and said, "Brother, what's the matter with you? Is it because you have trouble walking or what?"
"My hands and feet are fine." The man gasped.
"You look like a starving ghost, don't you know how to order takeaway?" Officer Wang asked.
After taking the last bite of a Snickers bar, the man said slowly, "Maybe alcohol has paralyzed me. I seem to be a waste."
"What happened?" Gu Chen was also at a loss, and hurriedly asked the man, "I heard you used to drive?"
"But what about your cars? They're all sold out? Also, what's going on with so many empty wine bottles?"
"Hehe." The man laughed dryly when he heard Gu Chen's words, shook his head and sighed: "I feel like I'm a waste, I don't know what's wrong with me? Why did I become like this?"
"What happened?" Lu Weiwei was very worried about the man's situation.
A person can be so decadent that he can lock himself in the attic of the store and drink up these hundreds of bottles of wine, it feels a little scary for this person.
Gu Chen took a deep breath, turned on the law enforcement recorder, pointed it at the man, and asked, "I'm here to ask you now, are you Xu Feng?"
"Is it important?" The man looked at Gu Chen with a confused expression.
Gu Chen continued to remind: "You just need to answer my question honestly, are you Xu Feng?"
Faced with another question from Gu Chen, the man nodded and said, "Yes, I am."
"Very good." Gu Chen stood up straight, took out the notebook, and asked him curiously, "Then what's your situation now? Have you been robbed or something? Where are the cars at your dealership?"
"Sold out." Xu Feng said.
"Sold out?" Hearing Xu Feng's remarks, Yuan Shasha nodded silently, and also thoughtfully said: "That means the business is okay, but it's sold out, won't you buy more?"
"I don't want to do business anymore. I feel like my energy has been drained." The man closed his eyes and propped his hands on the bed to maintain his sitting posture.
Police officer Wang was puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Did you...have you been hit by something?"
"That's right." Xu Feng nodded silently, and said with a wry smile: "Since she disappeared from my world, I feel like I'm useless, and I don't have the energy to do anything."
"At first, I was able to control my emotions, but then I couldn't hold back anymore. As she disappeared from my world longer, I felt more and more that I might no longer have the energy to maintain the business. I... can't live without her."
"Her?" Gu Chen felt that the "she" Xu Feng said was obviously a woman.
I can think of the words of Luo Ping, the owner of the antique shop, and the old man He Shaoqing of Hejia Village in Gaoquling.
Gu Chen can basically judge now that this guy named Xu Feng may be the one who bought Uncle He Shaoqing's bloody ancient jade back then.
And that woman may be his girlfriend.
"But how did Xu Feng become like this? Could it be that he was cursed by the bloody ancient jade?"
Gu Chen thought in his heart, but quickly vetoed himself, feeling that the matter was not that simple.
Lu Weiwei also said impatiently: "I said Xu Feng, is it because your girlfriend left you that you became like this?"
"Hmm." Xu Feng also said weakly when he heard Lu Weiwei's speech.
Lu Weiwei glanced at Gu Chen, then asked Xu Feng again: "Xu...Xu Feng, where is your girlfriend?"
"do not know!"
The three words "I don't know" came out of Xu Feng's mouth, dragging on for a long time.
Police Officer Wang said impatiently: "Can you not speak like this? Can you speak quickly? It really makes people anxious."
"Senior Brother Wang." Gu Chen glanced at Police Officer Wang, and also reminded with his eyes: "He is not emotionally stable right now, so don't worry."
"Okay." Officer Wang waved his hand, feeling that this matter has to be left to Gu Chen.
So Gu Chen also asked softly: "Xu Feng, what's the situation with your girlfriend? What's her name? Why did she leave your side? What happened here?"
After the voice fell, the entire second-floor compartment suddenly fell silent.
Everyone turned their eyes to Xu Feng, waiting for Xu Feng to explain himself.
At this time, Xu Feng seemed to be trying hard to recall, trying to wake himself up from his confused state.
After a while, Xu Feng, who was trying to calm down, said slowly:
"A few years ago, I met a Southeast Asian woman named Tessa when I was traveling, but half a year ago, she suddenly disappeared from my world."
"Southeast Asian woman, Tessa?" Gu Chen heard the words, quickly recorded these, and asked: "So these years, have there been stories between you?"
"En." Xu Feng nodded silently, and began to tell all the things that happened:
"A few years ago, when I was traveling in Fujian Province, I met her by accident."
"At that time, she told me that she wanted to come here to record her travel process and her own story in China."
"And she speaks Chinese very well, and she knows our cultural customs very well, and she is very close to me."
"So at that time, I handed over the work of the car dealership to the store manager, and promised to stay with her and help her record everything."
"In this way, year after year, we have always stayed together, almost seeing each other often."
After a pause, Xu Feng let out a long sigh, and said helplessly, "But just half a year ago, I suddenly received a message from her."
"In the news, she told me that staying in China for the past few years has made her very happy, and she also thanked me for helping her record in obscurity."
"However, she wants to leave now and told me not to miss it."
Speaking of this, Xu Feng felt aggrieved in his heart, and with a mournful face, he looked at Gu Chen and the others and said, "For a few years, I thought the two of us would get married and live together."
"But she told me that she had to go back, just leave a word like that, and the person disappeared like that? I... Who the hell should I ask for reasoning?"
Hearing Xu Feng crying here, Gu Chen probably also knew that Xu Feng probably had feelings for this woman.
And between the two, they may have been together as lovers in the past few years.
So the woman's sudden departure made it difficult for Xu Feng to accept for a while.
Over time, under the constant mental torture, the whole person finally collapsed and became helpless.
"Xu Feng, has this woman named Tessa never contacted you since she left you?" Gu Chen asked.
Xu Feng nodded silently, sniffed, then nodded and sighed: "It's been half a year, I don't know what I did wrong? She just left without saying goodbye?"
"But in the past few years, my business has been neglected, and I have almost accompanied her on various trips, traveling all over the world."
"The two of us even...even..."
Speaking of this, Xu Feng also let out a long sigh, and said again: "To be honest, the two of us have already had a good time together, and I can tell that Tessa likes me."
"I gave her everything I had and was willing to do anything for her. I really didn't feel sorry for her, but why did she leave me?"
"But...maybe, her family is in a hurry, so..."
"impossible."
Before Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Xu Feng over there directly retorted: "Is there something urgent at home? She can communicate with me."
"But her departure this time has made me realize that something is wrong."
"How do you say it?" Gu Chen seemed to have heard something tricky, so he hurriedly asked again.
Xu Feng took a deep breath, and couldn't help sighing: "I rented a house for her in Jiangnan City. We usually live together, but because of the work in the store, I sometimes stay here."
"Of course, I don't travel with her all the time. Sometimes she won't let me follow and wants to go out alone, but we call every day."
"But when I got that farewell text, I realized something was wrong, so I closed the shop early that day and ran to our rented place."
"But then I realized that everything about Tessa in the room had been taken away."
"Tessa took all her things away, but only left me a farewell text message. What does she think of me? What are we these years?"
"Could it be your wishful thinking?" Yuan Shasha also felt that this Xu Feng seemed to be a little crazy.
For a so-called foreign woman Tessa, the whole person is decadent, there must be something wrong with it.
Xu Feng shook his head silently, and after a short dry laugh, he said again:
"At first, I thought she was teasing me? So after I received this farewell text message, I didn't reply to her again."
"I thought she would take the initiative to contact me in a few days, but that's not the case."
"Tessa just disappeared from my world. She didn't contact me again. It wasn't until a week after I got the text that I realized that maybe this time it was real."
After a pause, Xu Feng also said nervously: "After all, in the past few years, we have never quarreled, and we have always gotten along very well."
"It's not normal for her to leave suddenly and just leave a text saying goodbye."
"But when I realized that all of this might be true, it wasn't a joke. I couldn't get in touch with Tessa anymore. She couldn't get through on the phone, and all her social accounts were cleared, as if she had never been here before."
"Yeah." Gu Chen recorded all this, and asked again: "So she hasn't looked for you again, maybe she doesn't want to contact you again."
"No, it won't, she must have encountered some difficulties." Xu Feng seems not to give up until now.
Lu Weiwei really couldn't stand it anymore, and said earnestly: "I said Xu Feng, you should be very clear that I haven't contacted you for half a year, and it's clear that the two of you are over."
"If this Tessa likes you, then she will never leave without saying goodbye, nor will she make the two-year relationship so unfeeling."
"Hehe." Hearing what Lu Weiwei said, Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I'm not very capable, I don't know how to keep anyone away, and I'm not good at managing interpersonal relationships."
"I only know that if you treat me well, I will treat you better, and if you neglect me, I will walk away."
"You don't look for me, and I don't look for you, each is happy."
With a faint sigh, Xu Feng said again: "At first, I felt that it didn't matter whether I was disappointed or not. Anyway, I didn't try to please anyone, and I didn't wrong myself."
"As for the last one left by your side, then... that's who."
"But now it seems that I'm really tired. I don't want to quarrel with anyone, and I don't want to quarrel with anyone. Sometimes I feel sad for myself when I look at the story between me and her."
Wiping the teardrops from the corner of his eyes with his rough right hand, Xu Feng also choked up and said:
"You can hide your smile from everyone, but you can't hide your heartache from yourself. Any relationship is mutual."
"People are scattered because they don't hesitate, and people are cold because they are not true." Gu Chen looked up at Xu Feng, and couldn't help but said with emotion:
"What people fear most is deception after trust, indifference after initiative, chilling after dedication, estrangement after intimacy, boredom after familiarity, perfunctory after affection, separation after getting acquainted, and loss after cherishing."
"But Xu Feng, we can all be a special flower, we can grow as we want, we don't have to grow into roses, even if the whole world is expecting us to grow into roses, we still have to be ourselves. "
"That's right." Police officer Wang listened to Xu Feng's nagging for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back, and couldn't help complaining:
"The main reason why you are too tired is that you are too sensitive and too soft-hearted."
"No matter how estranged you and this Tessa are in the end? But if the friendship between you was true, then it will be regarded as a breakup, and don't let down the encounter. I hope you don't regret knowing each other. It is also true. Be happy."
After thinking about it, Yuan Shasha also said: "If you want me to say, kind people always give others a feeling that they have no bottom line, so others like to ignore you unscrupulously, saying that you have no sense of existence, they always think that they are the most powerful .”
Shaking her head, Yuan Shasha couldn't help laughing: "It's really ridiculous."
"Isn't it?" Lu Weiwei sighed, seeing Xu Feng being so decadent, she felt that she had to give him a hand too.
After all, Lu Weiwei is serious about doing all kinds of ideological work for the masses. She doesn't know how many times she has met just by saving the young man who jumped off the building.
Facing this Xu Feng, he felt that he should have lost his youthful impulse, but at least judging from his reluctant attitude, it seemed that he was serious about his relationship.
So Lu Weiwei couldn't help sighing: "Xu Feng, do you know that there are actually such people in the world?"
"You mean..." Xu Feng was puzzled.
But Lu Weiwei said indifferently: "It's just that I have never been treated kindly, but I am kind to others everywhere, and I am good at comforting others even though no one understands me."
"That's right." Xu Feng seemed to agree, feeling that this was very similar to himself.
Seeing this situation, Lu Weiwei continued to complain: "Obviously my life is not satisfactory, but it happens that I can't see the suffering in the world."
"The so-called doctor does not heal himself, and heals others but not himself. This kindness that ignores oneself is called gentleness."
"If your relationship with Tessa is true, then I wish you all the best, even if Tessa leaves, so what? At least you have been together, isn't it good to keep it as a memory?"
After seeing Lu Weiwei's psychological counseling, Xu Feng's expression changed obviously to a certain extent.
Gu Chen thought that he came to investigate Xu Feng this time because he wanted to know the whereabouts of the bloody ancient jade.
After all, the transaction of this piece of Xueqin Ancient Jade back then was a bit bizarre, and I learned from the old man He Shaoqing of Hejia Village in Gaoquling that the buyer bought that piece of Xueqin Ancient Jade to give to his girlfriend.
Riding a motorcycle from afar, spending 6000 yuan, just for this?Obviously, only Xu Feng in front of him could do it.
At first, Gu Chen felt that this man seemed to know some antiques.
No matter how you look at it, it seems that there are bad intentions in giving your girlfriend the bloody ancient jade.
But now, it seems that Gu Chen's previous speculation has to be overthrown and start over.
It was obvious that Xu Feng was being manipulated to death by that foreign woman named Tessa.
In this way, Gu Chen can also understand that Tessa's sudden departure can indeed make this guy named Xu Feng a completely different person.
"Xu Feng, let me ask you, a few years ago, did you ride a motorcycle to Hejia Village in Gaoquling?"
After thinking about it, Gu Chen still asked the question he wanted to know.
When Xu Feng heard this, his eyes couldn't help being taken aback: "You... how do you know?"
"Don't worry about how I know, just tell me, what are you doing in Hejia Village, Gaoquling?"
"What are you going to do?" Xu Feng lowered his head and thought about it for a few seconds, and then said slowly: "I remember, I rode a motorcycle to Hejia Village, Gaoquling a few years ago, as if to buy a piece of ancient jade."
"Did you go there specifically to buy this ancient jade? Or did you go over there to join in the fun and then buy that ancient jade?" Lu Weiwei was also nervous, afraid that Xu Feng's answer would not be the answer she wanted.
But after Xu Feng thought about it for a few seconds, he blurted out: "If you don't tell me, I'll almost forget it."
"I remember that it was Tessa's intention to go to Hejia Village in Gaoquling."
"What does Tessa mean?"
Hearing Xu Feng's remarks, everyone looked at each other, feeling that there seemed to be something tricky about it.
At first, everyone thought that Xu Feng had ulterior motives.
If you were an ordinary woman who didn't know much about antiques, then this bloody ancient jade might win the woman's heart.
But listening to what Xu Feng said now, it's completely different things.
It seems that from the very beginning, the cart has been turned upside down.
And this Tessa seems to be the real expert hiding behind.
"I told you to go to Gaoquling, Hejia Village, just to buy that piece of ancient jade. You haven't countered the price yet. It can be seen that Tessa is bound to get this piece of ancient jade."
Gu Chen muttered to himself, feeling that the weirdness in it was completely beyond his imagination.
But after a while, Gu Chen raised his head and asked again: "But Xu Feng, how can you be sure that the ancient jade you bought is exactly what Tessa wanted?"
"I don't know about that either." Xu Feng didn't seem to think too much about it back then.
Lu Weiwei said impatiently: "You can't be unclear, you have to be clear, how are you sure that the piece of ancient jade you want to buy must be what Tessa wants?"
"Maybe Tessa has seen it before?" Shaking his head, Xu Feng also looked innocent:
"I'm really not sure about this, but Tessa told me at the time that I heard that there is a piece of ancient jade with totems and symbols in He Shaoqing's home in Gaoquling He Village, which is quite beautiful."
"When she said that, I would definitely buy it for her, so I agreed to go to Hejia Village in Gaoquling to buy back that ancient jade for her."
"So when you bought it, you checked it on the spot?" Gu Chen asked.
Xu Feng nodded silently: "Yes, it was indeed confirmed. I took a picture and sent it to her, and she asked me to buy it as a birthday present for her. Just pay as much as you want, and there is no bargaining at all."
