Chapter 9: Initial clues



This place is very familiar. It is the place where Zen Master Yunhai meditated. The stone where Zen Master Yunhai meditated has disappeared and turned into a clear spring. The spring water gurgles and flows into a small pool. The small pool is filled with mist, like a fairyland.

"This is a spiritual spring, formed from a spiritual stone where a Zen master passed away. The water from this spring can strengthen the body and prolong life. Bathing in the water in that small pond can cleanse the meridians and marrow, and beautify the skin." Jiang Jiang turned around conceitedly, "Didn't you notice that I've become more beautiful?"

Chu Jingqiu curled her lips and said, "She is a little bit prettier, but it seems that her face has become thicker." Then she laughed.

"You soak here for a while. I'll get you some food, drinks and other daily necessities. Enjoy Jiang Jiang's one-stop SPA service!" Jiang Jiang wagged his tail in a servile manner, turned around and disappeared.

Chu Jingqiu took off her clothes and walked into the small pool. She felt the water temperature was just right, similar to a small hot spring. She leaned against the warm stone wall. At first, she felt comfortable all over, but slowly she felt a slight pain. The pain became more and more intense, and she bit her lower lip in pain.

Black and sticky dirt kept coming out of his body, and Xiao Tan's water turned black and smelled terrible.

After a while, the water in the pond became clearer and clearer. Chu Jingqiu felt the pain disappear, his body became lighter, and the small wounds on his body healed visibly. His skin became smooth and delicate, like white jade.

Jiang Jiang brought a bath towel, two lounge chairs, and a large umbrella over them. On the table between the lounge chairs were placed a fruit platter, red wine, and various snacks.

Chu Jingqiu felt that Goutui Jiang's service was excellent and gave her a thumbs up.

Wrapped in bath towels and wearing sunglasses, a man and a dog lay on a lounge chair, eating fruits and snacks and drinking red wine, looking very comfortable.

"I'll come to the space to sleep at night from now on. It's still very comfortable, and Jiang Jiang is there to keep me company." Chu Jingqiu picked up a piece of beef and put it in Jiang Jiang's mouth. "Here, let's reward our little Jiang Jiang for his hard work!"

Jiang Jiang wagged his tail happily, almost taking off from the spot.

After the man and the dog finished bathing, they went to bed in the bedroom and stayed silent all night.

Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.

At eight o'clock in the evening, two people were walking on a dark mountain road. The shorter one was cursing as he walked, "Today is really fucking unlucky. I found several buyers but they all thought it was too expensive. If it weren't for the tight situation these past two days, I would have shipped such good goods directly to other places and sold them at a lower price."

We've wasted a whole day. If things don't work tomorrow, we'll have to find a way to ship the goods out. We can't sell these goods so cheaply." The little man kicked the stone under his feet vigorously.

"Boss Ma, actually the 200 yuan offered by the buyer just now is about the same. Here we usually pay a maximum of 200 yuan to marry a local wife. The villagers only look at the size of her butt and whether she can give birth, not whether she looks good or not." said the tall man.

"Zhao Daniu, you know shit. How can a wife bought back be the same as a local one? The one bought back can be beaten and scolded at will. The men who buy wives are usually old bachelors. They pay a higher price just to marry a wife. We take such a big risk just to make more money."

When the two of them were almost at Yuejiazhai, Boss Ma paused, then leaned to the side and fell to the ground. “Ouch, it hurts so much!”

"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Daniu hurried over to help.

"It's okay, I just twisted my foot. Go to Old Lady Jin's place and pull the cart over and take me back."

"Why bother? I can carry you there myself."

"If I break a bone, I'll be crippled. Stop talking nonsense and go pull the cart."

Zhao Daniu reluctantly went to look for the cart, and Ma Lao Da jumped and disappeared into the forest.

As soon as Zhao Daniu entered the room, Gu Weimin pushed him to the ground. "Where are the others? Tell me quickly."

"Good man, let's talk it over. I'm Boss Ma's man." Zhao Daniu had never seen such a scene before. He thought he was encountering a gang of robbers.

"Where is Boss Ma?" Gu Weimin was anxious and put the gun to Zhao Daniu's temple.

Zhao Daniu was so scared that he wet his pants and quickly told Gu Weimin that Boss Ma was waiting outside the village to pull her out.

Several people quietly sneaked out of the village, but there was no sign of Boss Ma. They chased him in different directions, but could not find any trace of Boss Ma.

When it was almost dawn, Gu Weimin and his men took Zhao Daniu back to the town police station. Xiao Yihan and the others did not sleep all night, waiting for news from Gu Weimin.

"Why did they only arrest one person? Where are the others?" Qi Yue asked hurriedly without waiting for Gu Weimin to speak, looking back as he spoke, "Are there any others back there?"

Gu Weimin was so angry that he cursed, "Damn it, he ran away and only this one was caught."

Xiao Yihan watched all this calmly, as if he had already expected this result.

"That Ma Boss is a professionally trained agent. She must have some real skills to be able to lurk here for so many years without being discovered.

Let's first interrogate Zhao Daniu and his father. As for Boss Ma, we'll discuss it later."

Zhao Daniu had just started working there, and he could only explain how he and Boss Ma went to Xiaoqingshan to look for buyers, and he knew nothing else.

However, when Lao Zhao was being interrogated, he provided an important clue. He said that once, Boss Ma let slip that she had to deal with this batch of goods as soon as possible. This time, her unit gave her three days to come out, so Boss Ma must be working in a nearby unit.

Xiao Yihan knew that Boss Ma must have known that this line had been exposed. This clue was broken, but it was not without results. At least he knew that Boss Ma was a woman and a formal employee. This step was temporarily at a stalemate. Where should he start next? Xiao Yihan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Have a cup of tea!" Qi Yue considerately brought over a cup of hot tea. Based on his understanding of Xiao Yihan over the years, this was Xiao Yihan's state of mind when thinking about the case. "If you weren't afraid of alerting the enemy, you could just post this portrait all over the streets. The public has sharp eyes, I don't believe we can't find any clues." Qi Yue took a sip of tea and said this casually.

Xiao Yihan suddenly understood something. "Yes, the portrait. We can ask Comrade Chu Jingqiu to redraw a female portrait of Boss Ma and reveal her true face."

"Brother, you still have a way. Speaking of Chu Zhiqing, I called her this afternoon to check her personal information. There is no problem. I have written down the specific situation." After saying that, Qi Yue took out a piece of paper from his briefcase and handed it to Xiao Yihan.

"She is actually Mr. He's granddaughter and Chu Baichuan's daughter. This makes sense. She is indeed a rare talent!

"Have you seen the note? I've thought about it carefully. The girl described on the note doesn't look like Chu Zhiqing. Why did Jin Shuixiang kidnap the wrong person? We still need to investigate. Who was the person who handed the note to Zhao Daniu? Who did the person who handed the note to Zhao Daniu want to kidnap?" Xiao Yihan said thoughtfully, turning the teacup in his hand.
