Su Boshan said, "Let's not discuss this anymore. Since we have suspicions, let's follow this line of investigation. If it's been done, there will always be clues left. I don't believe it."
"We don't know if it will be useful to investigate along this line, so we can only give it a try. Anyway, we have already reached a dead end. If there are really no clues, we can only close the net. We can rely on it, but the national cultural relics cannot wait."
"Whether we can find the person behind this or not, the next time they sail, we'll close the net. I hope this is the right direction, but don't be discouraged. As long as he refuses to give up the huge profits behind smuggling, he'll be exposed sooner or later."
Gu Jingmo dropped his pen and said, "That's it. I'll make the arrangements. Boshan, you take Bai Feng and Liu Gang to investigate this matter. Be careful not to let the Liang family find out that we are investigating them."
"Everyone else, stay here with me and keep an eye on them. No matter what they do, everyone must be careful to prevent them from taking desperate actions."
"Understood, Captain."
"receive."
Su Boshan stood up from the sofa and said, "Okay, I just came and I have to go back. I haven't seen my sister-in-law yet. No, Lao Gu, wait until our mission is over and I will treat you and your sister-in-law to a meal so that we can all get to know each other."
Gu Jingmo said, "Okay, we'll treat you to a meal and introduce you to each other, okay?"
"Of course, Lao Gu, I've been waiting for your meal. Let's go, Xiao Bai and Xiao Liu, let's go to work."
After seeing people off, Gu Jingmo stared at the character relationship table he had drawn, sorted out the relationships again, then said something to the team members and went out with the table.
I was going to go out and make a phone call to ask my father, because this incident happened so long ago that it is not easy to investigate, and many people may not be alive anymore.
They didn't have much time to investigate the matter, so Gu Jingmo wanted to call his father and ask if he still remembered the people around the old man of the Liang family decades ago.
It would be easier to start by checking the people around him at that time. After the call was connected, Gu Jingmo explained the situation in detail. After hearing Gu Jingmo's question, Gu's father thought for a while and said:
"It's been too long. Back then, there was a difference between men and women. I never heard of any young women around Old Man Liang. It's just a rumor, and you guys actually took it seriously."
Gu Jingmo said anxiously: "Father, please think about it again. It doesn't have to be a woman. Is there someone around Mr. Liang who is not very capable but is highly respected by her?"
"Let me think about it, let me think about it."
Mother Gu came down from upstairs and looked at Father Gu who looked distressed and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so distressed? Is there something wrong?"
"Father Gu handed the phone to Mrs. Gu and said, 'It's Jing Mo all over again, always causing trouble for me. Why is he asking if there were any people around Mr. Liang forty years ago who were incompetent but still in his good graces?'"
"Do you think there's no such person around? His old subordinates have all been promoted now, so there shouldn't be anyone like him."
Mother Gu patted Father Gu's shoulder and said, "Yes, of course you don't have any. Old man, you are really old and confused. Your brain can't remember anything at all."
Father Gu said to Gu Jingmo on the other end of the phone: "Son, let your mother talk to you later."
Gu's mother took the phone and said to Gu Jingmo, "Son, there was indeed such a person around Old Man Liang at that time. His surname was Wang, but I don't remember his specific name. At that time, Old Man Liang trusted him very much."
"We were secretly grumbling about this. It's obvious that this guy is completely uneducated and can't do anything right. If Lao Liang gives him a task, there's a 70% chance he'll get it wrong. But for some reason, Lao Liang still gives him tasks when it comes to important matters."
"When Father Gu heard Mother say this, he immediately shouted, 'I just remembered. Is this the guy we all call Wang Banping? He can't do anything right, and he's always smug and looks down on others.'"
Mother Gu said: "That's him, do you still remember his name?"
"Remember, remember, Wang Jinshan. How can I not remember such a unique name?"
Mother Gu said, "Why didn't you think of it just now? Son, did you hear what your father said, Wang Jinshan?"
Gu Jingmo said on the side: "I heard it, that's it, you two should take care of yourself and rest. I will go back after the task is completed."
Mother Gu said with a smile on the other side: "Don't forget to bring Xiaojin back, okay?"
"I know, Mom. I'll definitely bring it back to you."
Mother Gu got the answer she wanted and said with a smile: "Then you can get busy. The two of you are fine. I'm going to hang up first. I have an appointment to go out with someone."
"good."
Gu Jingmo got the answer he wanted, took the note and returned to the base. He told Tian Youpeng the information he got from Gu's father and asked him to tell Deputy Captain Su about it when he received a letter from Beijing, and let them start the investigation with this person first.
At least we have a direction. Don't run around like a headless fly. Don't let the Liang family find us before we even start investigating, and all our efforts will be wasted.
Gu Jingmo is quite confident in the members of his team. Although they seem to be fighting and making trouble at ordinary times, they know the importance of things and do a good job in every mission.
Father Gu watched Mother Gu hang up the phone and said angrily, "Why did you hang up? I wanted to talk to my son."
"Whatever you say, my son is busy enough, so don't make things more complicated. Old Gu, is this really the Liang family's doing?"
Father Gu sighed and said, "It's almost certain. Among all the families in Beijing, only these few can do things to this extent. As for whether it's the Liang family, we still have to wait for the results of the investigation."
Mother Gu said with some sadness: "I can understand why you say young people do these things, but how can Lao Liang do this? What's the difference between this and buying it?"
"Has he forgotten what happened decades ago? We all emerged from the flames of war. Doesn't he know how difficult our country has been through all those years? How can he be a traitor if he can do anything?"
"Doesn't he hate the scars on his body every night when he looks at them? Can't those scars awaken his inner self? Has he forgotten the oath he swore when he first joined the army?"
Father Gu patted his wife and said, "Money can be a temptation. Do you know how much profit there is in smuggling cultural relics? It's nine figures a year. It's inevitable that those with weak wills will be tempted."
"It has nothing to do with his previous experiences. He just lived in a comfortable environment for so long that he forgot the way he came and the time when he was rolling in the fire."
