Chapter 368 Where have you seen it before?
The three of them held their breath and walked forward. Li Beiting was the first to open a box, which contained a thick stack of data, some paintings, manuscripts and the like.
It doesn't look unusual.
Jiang Yao then casually opened another box, and immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, so shiny!"
The box was actually filled with gold, jewelry, and all kinds of glittering diamonds, which were simply blinding.
"Mom, I didn't expect you to have this hobby? You actually hid these things privately?" Jiang Yao's face was full of amazement.
Lan Qiuru swallowed unconsciously and then denied it seriously, "How is that possible! Am I the kind of person who is blinded by worldly things? Maybe your father secretly kept it because he liked it!"
Jiang Yao looked at his mother's shining eyes, which could not be taken away from the gold, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
She actually let her father, whom she had never met, take the blame.
She suddenly felt that her mother's original personality might be more lively than she imagined?
Maybe the way my mother and father get along will be very interesting.
Finally they opened the boxes one by one and found all kinds of strange things inside.
Stones of strange colors, ancient music scores, musical instruments, etc.
Maybe my mother was once a collector.
Jiang Yao thought silently in his heart, picked up a notebook and looked at it, but he saw unexpected content.
"Mom, come here quickly." She waved to her mother.
When Lan Qiuru heard the noise, she hurried over to check. The handwriting on the yellowed paper was clear, recording a bunch of data, and it was exactly the same as her current handwriting.
She quickly took it and looked at it carefully, turning page after page. As she was reading, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head.
It was as if a heavy hammer hit her head, causing her to break out in cold sweat and twitch uncontrollably all over her body.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Yao noticed her abnormality and quickly supported her, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
"I..." Lan Qiuru seemed to be experiencing some pain. She took deep breaths and finally recovered her breath after a while. "I remembered something. It seems that what is recorded here is an important experiment that your father and I participated in together..."
As for the content and details of the experiment, she continued to read, but was shocked to find that the remaining pages had traces of being torn.
The key information was actually erased.
But no one else should have come in here. Could it be that she erased it manually?
"Why was it torn? Is there some important secret behind this experiment?" Such a guess flashed through Jiang Yao's mind.
Lan Qiuru's head still ached, but she still answered her question: "I vaguely remember that there was a mysterious force behind the experiment. I'm afraid your father's disappearance is related to this!"
"Mom, you mean that Dad is very likely still alive, but just missing, right?" Jiang Yao's tone was a little excited.
Lan Qiuru actually nodded. "If my guess is correct, there's at least an 80% chance he's still alive! From what I remember, he seems to be a genius in experiments. If this important experiment is to move forward, he'll be a key figure."
Therefore, that mysterious force would want to save his life even at all costs.
Of course, if something unexpected had happened back then, there would be no guarantee.
But Lan Qiuru felt that although her memory of her husband was still unclear, there might be some kind of telepathy between the couple. She always felt that the other person was still alive in some corner of the world.
But why didn't he come back to find her?
Did you encounter force majeure like her?
Her words gave Jiang Yao a powerful sedative, making her more determined to find her father's whereabouts.
Jiang Yao then lowered his head and flipped through his notes, only to find that the rest of the text was blank.
But on that blank space, there seemed to be some vague traces left.
Jiang Yao guessed that this was probably left by writing too hard on the previous page.
Thinking of this, her eyes lit up and she immediately asked, "Do you have a pencil?"
Li Beiting understood what she meant and quickly rummaged through a pile of boxes. He actually found a pen in the corner and handed it over.
Jiang Yao reached out to take it, and when his fingertips accidentally touched each other, a tingling electric current was caused.
Her heart trembled, and without looking up at him, she scribbled twice on the blank page with a pencil.
Finally, a string of English characters came into view - Vincent.
Translated it means Vincent?
It sounds like a person's name, and it sounds somewhat familiar.
Jiang Yao was suspicious, but for a moment he couldn't remember who the other person was.
She asked her mother, but Lan Qiuru had no recollection of it.
So she turned her gaze to Li Beiting again, only to see that he had walked to a box again with something in his hand.
She walked over to check it out out of curiosity, and found it was a silver badge.
There was a rather complex totem carved on it. It was not an animal, nor was it a certain shape, but she felt that it looked strangely familiar.
It was as if she had seen this badge before in some distant memory deep in her mind, but she couldn't remember where it was.
"Have you seen this badge somewhere before?" Jiang Yao anxiously grabbed his arm. "Where exactly have you seen it?"
Li Beiting shook his head apologetically. "I just think this totem is quite old. I've never seen it before. I'm sorry."
Jiang Yao immediately lowered his head in disappointment.
It feels like you're about to reach the finish line, but you accidentally sprain your ankle and miss the trophy.
"Don't be anxious." At this moment, a warm big hand felt above his head, and Li Beiting's voice was gentle and soothing.
“Whatever this badge is, if you want to know, I will do everything I can to find the truth with you.
Even if the road is difficult and bumpy, as long as we move forward side by side, there is nothing we can’t accomplish, right? "
His few brief words instantly calmed Jiang Yao's emotions.
yes!
There's no point in getting anxious now.
Not only will it fail to speed up the pace, but it will disrupt the original rhythm.
Having Li Beiting around was like a reassurance, reminding her to calm down at all times.
Her brows relaxed, and she couldn't help but quietly hold his hand, which was held by the man.
Lan Qiuru, who was standing by, watched the scene with relief in her eyes.
How precious it is to have someone who can convince you and walk with you.
Her precious daughter has found a good match.
Subsequent searches yielded little results.
"Why don't we bring everything back to Kyoto, where we can have a more detailed investigation route." Li Beiting finally suggested.
Lan Qiuru had no objection.
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "The three of us will form an investigation team. Remember to share any intelligence we have!"
"good."
After the discussion, several people decided to leave first.
