After watching Annie walk away until she disappeared from sight, Lin Chengyu turned to Roger behind him and ordered, "Roger, take a few men and thoroughly inspect this presidential suite! Remember, don't miss a single corner!"
His voice was deep and serious, revealing an unquestionable authority.
Actually, there were two reasons why Roger was asked to lead a search of the room again.
Firstly, Lin Chengyu wanted to confirm whether other people had actually visited this place, as they suspected; secondly, and most importantly, he was afraid that those with ulterior motives might secretly install listening devices in the room when they weren't paying attention.
Roger immediately carried out Lin Chengyu's orders. He really didn't expect that their simple stroll would attract someone with a special identity like a secret agent!
After checking, Roger discovered that someone had indeed entered their suite, and some documents that Lin Chengyu and his wife had previously kept in the safe had been touched.
Fortunately, there were no surveillance cameras, and they probably knew that their security personnel included professionals.
In the following days, to avoid arousing Annie's suspicion, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu openly devoted themselves to investigating the origin of the mysterious scroll of "The Book of the Dead of Annie".
They spared no effort, searching far and wide for anyone who might know relevant information; at the same time, they immersed themselves in the vast collection of books and documents in the National Library of France, carefully searching for every clue related to the painting.
Finally, hard work pays off!
One afternoon, as sunlight streamed through the window and fell on the desk, the two men, as if they had struck gold, found fragments of information about the Book of the Dead of Ani in a tattered, weathered ancient book.
After a thorough study, they were surprised to discover that this seemingly ordinary painting was far more than just a cultural relic in the conventional sense—it might very well conceal a shocking mystery of an ancient Egyptian treasure!
This unexpected gain filled the two with joy, but at the same time they realized that the responsibilities they bore were becoming increasingly heavy.
Faced with a shrouded mystery and endless potential dangers, will they be able to successfully decipher the code hidden within the scroll? And what thrilling adventures will they experience?
Filled with a complex mix of anticipation and trepidation, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu resolutely embarked on this journey of exploration fraught with unknown challenges...
Upon learning this news, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu became even more certain that they could not hand the painting over to Annie.
But faced with Annie's threat, they must find a way to protect the painting while also guarding against attacks from the mysterious criminal group.
Meanwhile, Anne is also intensifying her search for the painting's whereabouts.
She used her unique identity and resources to launch a comprehensive search.
After investigating, she discovered that, in addition to Song Ziqing and his wife, another young couple from Japan had also visited the stall and bought something there, but her subordinates couldn't find out exactly what they bought.
The most troublesome problem for them was that the couple had already left France for the United States.
They are "Sun People" with American citizenship, and their backgrounds are quite complicated. This group of people really dare not investigate them too deeply.
Given the special status of that man and woman, even if her subordinates wanted to investigate, it would be in vain.
At the same time, she also received an investigation report from Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu regarding the scroll painting "The Book of the Dead of Anni".
Only now did she realize that her previous plan had a flaw: she had prematurely exposed herself to Song Ziqing and his wife.
In retrospect, even if the couple did not obtain the Book of the Dead of Ani, they must have had mixed feelings about it after hearing her mention it.
In recent days, they have been spending all their time in the National Library of France, searching for historical documents related to the painting.
Although she has lessened her suspicions about Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu, she will not easily give up monitoring them.
Annie decided to take matters into her own hands; she wanted to find the painting before Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu.
Using her connections and resources, she quickly learned the whereabouts of the couple from the Sun Country.
So that's how it is. They actually went to a remote town on the American frontier, a town rumored to hold countless little-known secrets.
Anne, having heard the news, set off without hesitation, following in their footsteps to that mysterious place.
However, it turns out that this seemingly peaceful and tranquil town is far from simple, and an eerie and dangerous atmosphere permeates the area.
Anne proceeds cautiously, treading on thin ice, unaware that she has already become deeply entangled in a shocking conspiracy...
At the same time, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu were also shocked to discover that since Annie disappeared, new unknown people had been appearing one after another.
Recently, Roger has been frequently reporting to the two of them that they are being secretly followed again.
The trackers this time were special; they were experts from the Land of the Sun. It was said that these people were proficient in ninjutsu and could track their targets silently. Even experienced professional bodyguards like Roger were helpless and suffered greatly.
The couple, who had originally planned to stay in France to participate in the Paris Agricultural Conference, had no choice but to give up in the face of this situation.
They were deeply worried that if they insisted on attending the conference, their carefully crafted Starry Night Wine brand would face numerous obstacles, and might even fail miserably.
On this peaceful night, the stars twinkled and the moonlight spilled through the window.
Song Ziqing gently stroked Lin Chengyu's hand, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, and whispered, "Darling, do you remember when we talked about our plan to go skiing in Switzerland in Hong Kong?"
Why don't we buy plane tickets first thing tomorrow morning and fly directly to that dreamlike snow-capped mountain country to enjoy the thrill of skiing?
Her voice was full of passion and longing, as if one could already feel the beautiful scene of the cold wind of the Alps brushing against one's cheek and snowflakes dancing at one's feet.
Lin Chengyu smiled slightly, his eyes revealing his longing for the trip.
He nodded in agreement, saying, "Great idea, Ziqing! I've been looking forward to experiencing the thrill of skiing together. Let's go tomorrow, it's going to be so much fun!"
Their eyes met, conveying a deep affection and anticipation for a bright future.
The next day, the group was very lucky. As soon as they arrived at the airport, there was a flight to Switzerland that departed early in the morning, and they immediately bought tickets and boarded the plane.
By the time their pursuers realized what was happening, Song Ziqing and his wife, along with their bodyguards, had already stepped into the skies of the snow country.
