Chapter 721 Countermeasures
Setting foot on the land of El Paso again, looking at the extremely familiar streets in front of him, Tang Qi inexplicably felt a trance that everything had changed.
It was only about half a month since I left, but it felt like a very long time had passed.
In the past two days, Mo Shaochen called her many times every day and sent her many WeChat messages. Almost every message contained six words, "I'm sorry, I miss you."
Tang Qi did not answer his calls, but would reply to him every morning and evening, "Be safe, don't worry."
Apart from this, she said nothing else to him.
She didn't know what to say. Everyone knew the truth, but some emotions needed time to be let go.
Moreover, she now urgently wants to find Xiaojiu.
Tang Qi went to the residence first. The exhibition hall had been closed when she took Mo Shaochen away. There were a lot of fallen leaves and dust in front of the door.
Having learned the lesson two years ago, Tang Qi did not approach rashly, but went to a hotel which was far away but could observe the place.
This time, she hid in the hotel and observed for three days and three nights. After making sure that no one from Antonio was watching near her residence, she found a little beggar and asked him to help her find Xiaojiu by going into the exhibition hall and the basement.
She found the only photo of Xiaojiu that she accidentally took on her phone and showed it to the other person, "It's a black adult Great Dane, its left eye is blind, its name is Xiaojiu. If you encounter it, just don't get close to it, it won't attack you."
She gave the beggar a $200 tip and said, "If you find it, I'll give you another $1,000. If you don't find it, you don't have to come back to find me. If anyone asks you or catches you, you must insist that you went in to steal."
"OK."
After the little beggar left, Tang Qi disguised himself as a middle-aged homeless man and lagged far behind him.
It was close to midnight, the sky was dark and cold, and the residence was located in a remote area with no one around.
Following Tang Qi's instructions, the little beggar climbed in through a vent at the back of the exhibition hall.
Tang Qi hid in the dark, watching closely.
An hour later.
The little beggar came out, and there was nothing unusual about him from the outside. However, Tang Qi carefully observed that the little beggar seemed very nervous, and his walking posture was a little stiff.
Almost instantly, Tang Qi understood.
There's someone in the basement!
Except Antonio, don't think about him.
She installed a password on the basement door. In order to lower Antonio's vigilance, she told him the password directly.
She was sure that Antonio hid in the basement to avoid being hunted by various countries. Now, the other party must also know that she was looking for Xiaojiu.
The other party must have something to rely on if he dares to let the little beggar out to inform her.
Is it dynamite, or is it Xiaojiu? Or is it both?
After the little beggar disappeared around the corner, Tang Qi pretended to be a drunk, carrying a bottle of cheap brandy, drinking as he walked, and staggered towards the exhibition hall, humming an old, out-of-tune song in a hoarse, rough voice.
"Welcome to the Hotel California, Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face..."
There is a surveillance camera installed at the entrance of the exhibition hall, which is connected to the computer screen in the basement.
At this time, Antonio and his men were monitoring the painting through the computer, their eyes fixed on the "drunkard" who was sitting and singing at the entrance of the exhibition hall.
Little did they know that while all their attention was attracted by the "drunk", their network and communication equipment had been hacked by Hachiman without their knowledge.
About five or six minutes later, two patrolling policemen came over and took away the "drunkard" who had been humming an unpleasant tune in a terrible voice.
Because the police reported Tang Qi for noise disturbance and because he was drunk, there was no way to educate him verbally, so he was taken to the police station and detained for one night. He was not released until the next day.
This also successfully made Antonio believe that she was really just a "drunk" passing by.
Afterwards, Tang Qi disguised himself as a blond-haired, blue-eyed boy from Country M and checked into another hotel.
She did not go to find the little beggar she had contacted before. Antonio kept him out to deliver the message so that he would not hurt the other party.
Moreover, she already knew what Antonio relied on.
Xiaojiu was indeed in his hands.
It should be that after she took Mo Shaochen away, Xiaojiu came to her residence alone to find her and never left.
Antonio is cruel by nature and full of hatred for her. If she doesn't show up, he will definitely use the most cruel means to kill Xiaojiu to vent his anger.
And the other side has enough high explosives to flatten an entire city.
Tang Qi locked himself in the hotel room and pondered over a solution.

Back home, Mo Shaochen was going crazy.
Tang Qi has ignored him for three whole days.
Although she replied to him "I'm fine, don't worry", in Mo Shaochen's view, it was no different from not saying anything.
After Xu Xing returned to China, he learned the news of Mo Shaochen's plane crash. He was so scared that he almost lost his soul. He did not take time to rest and immediately plunged into the work of investigating the plane crash.
With Xu Xing's joining, Song Ming and Si Yang were even more powerful. They quickly investigated the whole incident of Mo Xuelin and Mo Xuetang secretly colluding to bribe the two captains and deliberately causing the plane crash, and obtained definite evidence.
Mo Shaotang and Mo Xuelin, one is meticulous and the other is cunning. Their conspiracy to assassinate Mo Shaochen was well-planned and flawless. Song Ming and Si Yang investigated for a whole week but could not find any evidence.
But everything has two sides.
Mo Xuelin was a very calculating person. He had originally promised the two captains a large sum of money and would pay each family 100 million in cash after the mission was accomplished.
If it succeeds and Mo Shaochen dies, Mo Xuelin will naturally pay the money readily.
But not only did the plan fail, but Mo Shaochen was investigating closely.
At this time, Mo Xuelin dared not contact the families of the two captains and pay their remuneration as agreed.
The family members had not received any money and were dissatisfied with Mo Xuelin. Xu Xing took advantage of this and made the families on both sides think that Mo Xuelin was going back on his word. He also deliberately created a few minor accidents to make the other party suspect that Mo Xuelin wanted to kill them to silence them. This scared the other party so much that they immediately agreed to testify against Mo Xuelin and Mo Shaotang in order to save their lives.
Witness evidence alone is not enough.
Xu Xing hinted that if solid evidence could be provided, the family members would not be held accountable for harboring the criminal. The other party then quickly produced the recording of the conversation between Mo Xuelin and the two captains.
With all the evidence and witnesses, how to deal with Mo Shaotang and Mo Xuelin depends on Mo Shaochen's mood.
But he was in no mood at the moment. He wished he could grow wings, fly to Tang Qi, tie him up, press him on the bed and spank him hard.
All children have a rebellious period, but his child's rebellious period seems to have come too late.
Including his previous life, Tang Qi is actually 27 years old this year.
If she were in China, under his nose, he would tolerate her no matter how much trouble and rebellion she wanted without any bottom line. But now she is alone abroad, outside his protection. If she is targeted by Antonio who is on the run, he simply cannot imagine the consequences.
