Ba Lu stroked the investigation report in his hand, constantly extracting key information in his mind.

Royal sapphire necklace, hidden secrets, islands...

I thought it was strange at first, so I investigated the necklace. The main stone came from the crown of a European royal family. It later changed hands many times and ended up at an auction, where it was bought by Nan Suzhi at a high price.

Nan Suzhi asked a talented designer to redesign it, inlaid the gem on a necklace, and gave it to Nanxi.

After reading the investigation report, I just thought Xixi didn't wear it because she didn't like the gift from Nan Suzhi. Now that this necklace appears in her painting, it must have a deeper meaning.

Thinking of this, he quickly took out his phone, took a photo, and sent it to his trusted secretary. He also sent a voice message, "Go investigate this designer and see if there's anything hidden behind this necklace. Quick, give me an answer within an hour."

One second... two seconds... three seconds...

Time has never seemed so long and concrete. He raised his wrist, on which was still the watch his wife had given him. He stared at the time, waiting anxiously for every minute and every second.

Finally, forty minutes later, the phone rang with a message.

The designer's name is Alan Oss. Compared with his reputation for genius design, his illicit love affair with his stepsister is more talked about in the design circle.

The name of the necklace is "Blue Dream", but it actually has another unknown meaning, called "forbidden love".

The last owner of this gem was a member of a European royal family. He was the product of his parents' incest and was not accepted by the royal family. Later, he took a huge fortune and disappeared from people's sight. It is said that he lived in seclusion on an island, but no one knows where it is exactly.

Bang!

The man slammed his massive fist into the ground, his eyes bloodshot, his whole body trembling, his back teeth clenched tightly. "Nan Suzhi, so it really is you. Damn it, you've been deceiving me for three years."

For three years, he never trusted Nan Suzhi and sent people to watch Nan Suzhi's castle in Tehran day and night, and even had someone sneak in. The news he received was that Nan Suzhi was doing business normally and everything seemed impeccable, but he didn't expect that he would actually escape.

He hated it. How could he fill the heartbreak of these three years? What price would he have to pay to make peace with the regrets of these three years?

Everyone thought that he seemed to be able to face it all calmly and could calmly find a balance between fighting and finding his wife and children. But only he himself knew that it was not the case. In the past three years, his heart had never escaped from the burning fire. It was just that the pain made him numb, and the burning made him adapt to it. That's all.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would drive around in circles, using up all his energy on the road so that he could sleep for an hour or two when he was exhausted.

Every time his wife's due date came, he would buy a room full of flowers and spread them across the bedroom, buy a lot of children's toys and put them on the bed, and then sit there silently assembling them all day.

Three years of separation, three years of war, new wounds piled up on his body, and the calluses from the gunshot wounds grew thicker and thicker, but the longing for him grew stronger and stronger.

Brother Jin said that only if he was strong enough and reached the pinnacle of power, he would be able to protect his wife and children, and make his opponents afraid to touch them easily. Now, with his glorious military exploits, he fought his way to that position through the hail of bullets, vying for the highest power center of the military government. In the end, he discovered that his opponents always wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

The man sitting on the ground carefully placed the paintings on the ground in order and looked at them carefully again and again.

Nan Xiaomao looked up at the sky and said to the little animals around him, "Believe it or not, when wild geese fly by, they will bring back a flower..."

But if the painting is reassembled, she is standing on the island, looking towards the sea.

He understood what she meant. When the wild geese flew by, her husband would come, descend from the sky, and take her home...

"Baby, bear with it a little longer, I will definitely find you and take you home..."

He gritted his teeth, his resolute and handsome face full of murderous intent. He took out his cell phone and called Sa Xun, the highest commander of the Special Operations Bureau.

"General, how come you have time to think of me?" Sa Xun's unhurried voice came from the other side.

Ever since his father rebelled three years ago and led his men to surround the military government office building and stationed troops in Mandalay, and was later attacked by Balu at night and shot to death, everyone thought that they were mortal enemies.

But no one knew that on the night of the mutiny, Sa Xun was still living in Balu's house.

Afterwards, everyone said that Sa Xun was more capable than his father. His position was promoted instead of demoted, and he sat in the top chair of the Special Operations Bureau, competing with Balu. However, a careful analysis showed that the result of the fight between the two was always that others would suffer. Nothing happened between them.

"Sa Xun, you two have been eating at my house for so many days, it's time to pay the bill."

"My wife works for your family and is not home all day long. I haven't asked you for overtime pay yet." Director Sa on the other end of the phone was obviously unhappy.

"I'll calculate your overtime pay when my wife comes back. My wife is generous and won't give your family a penny less." Baru's tense face still showed murderous intent.

There seemed to be a commotion on the other end of the line. "Brother Long, is there any news?" Then came Yin Yin's clamoring voice. She burst into tears as she finished speaking. "Brother Long, where is Sister Xi?"

Baru didn't say anything, and Saxun picked up the phone again. "Hurry up and find your wife so I can take Yinyin on our honeymoon. How can you be so oppressive? Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"I sent you a picture of the shape of an island, along with some relevant information. Have your people check and see if they can find this legendary island. I'm afraid the name might have changed, and it might not even be marked on the map, so we can only search based on its shape."

"You think I'm a machine? You just gave me a shape and a legend and asked me to find it? There are so many islands in the world, I might not be able to find them all even if I search for a year."

"If you can't find out anything about such a small matter, you might as well just resign and go home to retire. How dare you ask me to join the Ministry of National Defense?" A higher-ranking official can crush someone, not to mention that the other person is more than one rank higher than him. Sa Xun sighed heavily.

"Why is the food in your house so unpalatable? I still can't pay it back..."

Baru ignored what he said, hung up the phone, and then dialed another number.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Biaozi asked in a deep voice.

"Biaozi, send a few people to Tehran. The Nan Suzhi there is probably fake. Kill him and keep an eye on everyone who shows up there."

"Okay, brother, I'll take Fu Chai and Pan Heizi there in person." Biaozi reacted almost the moment he finished speaking. Sister Xi had news, and his voice was full of excitement.

It was not easy at all. During the past three years, only a few of their confidants knew what kind of inhuman mental torture this fearless and brave Burmese mainstay had gone through. He looked stronger and stronger, but his soul was becoming more and more withered. Now, there was finally a clue about his lost life. How could he not be excited?
