Tomb Raiders Codex

Chapter 348 Alarm
I quickly defended myself and said, "I was just trying to scare people, how could I really do that."

Tofu hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, we didn't hit anyone. When Lao Chen stepped on the accelerator, I quickly stretched my leg and stepped on the brake. The old lady got up and ran away."

"..." I am sure that this kid is against me on purpose. If Wen Min wasn't here, I'm not sure if I couldn't resist strangling him to death.

When Wen Min heard this, he said sharply: "Nonsense, you are too foolish. What kind of behavior is this? This is intentional murder, and there are surveillance cameras on the road. You, you two are too ignorant." Turning to me, he said : "The problem of cursing must be solved. You are becoming more and more impulsive now. You would not do such things before."

I looked at her worried eyes, my heart softened, and I also felt uncomfortable, so I couldn't help touching her face.Wen Min said softly: "I know you are avoiding me, and I know why, if you have any clues, please tell me, I want to help you."

Tofu said: "The more you value someone, the more you worry about her getting hurt. It's good that you understand Lao Chen's intentions. Don't worry, with me watching, he can't do anything out of the ordinary."

I said, "One more word of nonsense, I'll cut off your tongue and feed it to bastards."

Tofu shrunk his neck and was cowardly, and finally he didn't tell me any more.Seeing that Wen Min didn't pursue the question further, I quickly changed the subject and said, "Fatty Lin's dealings with the organist means that he has something to do with our business. I think Hongshan's case is probably related to him. Wen Min, the organist has something to do with it." No other features?"

If it's just those ten fingers, most of the mechanical hands are like this, so it's hard to find.

Wen Min thought for a while and said, "The bodyguard also described, saying that he vaguely heard the other party mention a person surnamed Feng."

Tofu and I lost our voices: "Feng Guishou!"

Gu Wenmin nodded and said, "I think so too, but I'm not very familiar with your circle, so I want to ask you to verify it."

Tofu said: "Why do you want to prove it? It's probably Feng Gui's hand. This kid... I haven't seen him for more than half a year. Why did he get mixed up with Fatty Lin?" We haven't contacted since we left Fengtou Village in Xiangxi. This time passed by in a flash, and the original scene is still vivid in my memory. We all went to fight, but Wei Nanjing and the three died in the fight. It is really embarrassing to think about it.Although Wei Nanjing is said to belong to old man Zhao, he was indeed a man who was assassinated by Lu Su and died. Although it is not wrong to say that he was wronged, it is really a pity.

Now, what's going on with Feng's ghostly hand?
When I found the starting point, I immediately called Zhuan Rui. The relationship between us was neither cold nor hot. It was a typical cooperative relationship. Since Wen Min was here, it was inconvenient for me to tell him about Lu Su, so I went to He just asked him to check Feng Guishou's contact information.Not long after, he gave me a phone number, said it was the latest one, and asked me to try it out.In this line of work, changing phone numbers is like playing games. Basically, there are several mobile phones, different products, different customers, and different numbers, so it is very troublesome to contact.

Tofu and Wenmin stared nervously at my movements, I dialed the phone, and a lazy and impatient voice came from the opposite side, somewhat intermittent, as if the signal was not good: "Who is it?" I recognized that it wasn't Feng Gui Who is the hand?

I reported my name: "It's me, Chen Xuan."

It was quiet there for a while, and there was a rustling sound, and then I felt that Feng Guishou's voice was much clearer, probably moving to a better signal position, and then he said, "It's you, what's the matter?" , is something wrong?"

I was worried that I would scare the snake away, so I said, "It's something, where are you now? I'll treat you to dinner, let's talk."

He was silent for a while, and said: "Okay, I'll come over tomorrow, by the way, how is your follower doing?" I wondered, thinking why did he ask about tofu? I accept everything, but if someone keeps plotting against the people around me, I will be very wary, so I said, "He's not bad, what's the matter?"

Feng Guishou smiled and said: "I've heard about you guys. That kid is still alive with his fighting spirit. It seems that you have covered him well."

I said, "My brother, of course it's me."

Feng Guishou smiled inexplicably: "Listen to my advice, don't take him into the fight again, otherwise, either he will drag you down, or you will kill him, he is not suitable for this circle." My heart sank suddenly, Changing the subject, said: "Come tomorrow, I will send you the address in a while, and I am waiting for you."

After hanging up the phone, things seemed to have some clues. It was still early before dinner, and Wen Min was strolling in the shop. She was in charge of detecting cultural relics cases, and was often in contact with antiques. She had excellent eyesight and was able to see things accurately.Looking at antiques may be boring to ordinary people. After all, normal people, no one will stare at a broken bottle for hours.

But as the saying goes, insiders look at the doorway, outsiders look at the excitement, insiders look at the same object, look at the year, look at the material, look at the craft, look at the shape of the utensil, look at the culture, look at the history, distinguish the source, distinguish the value, and distinguish the authenticity... After a lot of research, it is very famous.

I sat on a chair and looked at Gu Wenmin's side face. She was patiently playing with a high imitation Northern Song Tianqing square mouth bottle. This thing is a fake, but it is a high imitation. Accepted, it can be regarded as a lesson.She was obviously stumped, sometimes frowning, sometimes thinking, her beautiful silhouette appeared peaceful and gentle in the light of the setting sun.

Turning my gaze, Tofu was holding a laptop and trying to update the history of porcelain development. I was silent for a moment, interrupted him, and asked, "How long has it been since you drew?"

Tofu complained: "Isn't there no time? I don't want to charge more than [-] yuan for a fake product." He alluded to the blue square mouth bottle.

I said, "Do you think the current life is better, or the previous life?"

Tofu raised his head, was stunned for a while, recalled for a while, and said: "Actually, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking now. I have a house and a car. I feel quite content, but the pressure is great. I used to think about the rent every month and do my own thing every day." I like things, I think it’s pretty good. Isn’t the old saying that what you gain is what you lose? Hey...Old Chen, that’s not right, you are usually cold like everyone in the world owes you money, how come you suddenly become so emotional, Talk about life with me?"

I have to say that Feng Guishou's words just now affected me. Things have developed to the present, and my life has embarked on a completely different path. The future I am facing is people like Lu Su and Zhuan Rui. Between, there is only interest.

I can face these dark, underground worlds, but how long can Tofu stay with me?
All good things come to an end.

I feel a little heavy in my heart. Most people may think it’s nothing. They are brothers and not wives. But for me, this is a cold dividing line. On the other side of the dividing line is my 14 years of career. These 14 years During the years, Tofu was my only friend. We supported each other, laughed together, scolded mothers together, and were never absent.

And behind the dividing line, maybe this person should part ways with me.

This is the burden of time.

The future is a vast, unpredictable and dangerous future, what should I do?
Zhuan Rui once said similar things, and I even thought about it myself, but no one has ever said it so bluntly like Feng Guishou: Don't take him to fight again, otherwise, either he will drag you down, or you will kill him He, he is not suitable for this circle.

The next day, we made an appointment in a restaurant outside the Antique City, and Feng Guishou arrived as scheduled. He was in good spirits, and he didn't seem to have driven a long distance, so I concluded that the place where he stayed yesterday should be closer to Shenzhen , and may even be in Shenzhen.

There was only me and Tofu during the dinner, Gu Wenmin was arranged by me to do other things.

Let's not talk about some unnecessary reminiscences for the time being. After drinking a few glasses of wine and eating a few mouthfuls of food, the topic gets to the point.

Feng Guishou said: "Tell me, what's the matter with me."

I said, "I won't go around in circles with you either, Lin Jiayao knows you." Lin Jiayao, that is Fatty Lin's real name.

I was keenly aware that Feng Guishou's pupils shrank for a moment, but only for a moment, he said calmly, "I don't know, which green onion is it?"

Tofu said: "Don't pretend, don't pretend, it's so boring, we are all acquaintances, you tell us directly, we have inquired, this Lin Jiayao met you before he disappeared, there is evidence! "

Feng Guishou's eyes were small, but his eyes were shining brightly. He said, "Witness? What kind of witness?"

Tofu said: "In order to prevent you from killing people, I won't tell you. Hey, I said Brother Feng, we have urgent business with this Lin, so you can tell us, for the sake of the dishes on this table." You can't play dumb for us, there are more than 600 hairy crabs, and I will let you eat them all."

Feng Guishou said: "Then you can eat by yourself." Then he got up and said: "I won't accompany you."

Before he opened the door, the door was kicked open from the outside with a bang.

The three guns pointed at Feng Gui's hand at the door, and then Gu Wenmin walked in in plain clothes and said, "Hi, we meet again."

Feng Guishou looked at Gu Wenmin, and then at us, looking very surprised, showing a look of wanting to kill me, and said, "How dare you call the police?"

"Put down your weapons and raise your hands. We suspect that you are involved in the theft of cultural relics. Come with us." The leading male policeman said, and the other two rushed forward and subdued Feng Guishou.With a gun pointed at him, he couldn't resist, and was easily handcuffed, and then pushed down the stairs.
