Chapter 181 Who Got Beaten
Chu Qiao said softly, "Don't worry, I'm here. I'll use the rope to lower you down."
As she spoke, she took out the rope that she never left from her bag, and without giving Feng Ge a chance to hesitate, she quickly tied it around Feng Ge.
"Don't be nervous, relax." Chu Qiao said as he lowered the rope little by little.
Brother Feng closed his eyes, feeling as if there was a bottomless abyss below, and he didn't dare to open his eyes at all.
At a height of only eight or nine meters, Brother Feng was already trembling with fear. Then she thought of Master Chu, who could climb a height of over a hundred meters with his bare hands, and suddenly she felt a sense of admiration in her heart.
"Okay, take down the rope." Before Feng Ge could sigh, she had already landed.
Brother Feng opened his eyes: "So fast? It doesn't seem that difficult." Brother Feng untied the rope, leaned against the window on the side, and watched the movements around him.
Chu Qiao tied one end of the rope to the window handle, took out the figure-eight ring, and fastened it to the rope.
She jumped up, holding the figure eight ring with one hand and stepping on the wall, and slid down the rope as if falling from the sky, all in less than 10 seconds.
"Chu, you're so awesome! I haven't even finished counting to 10 yet. You're so cool..."
"Stop blowing your trumpet and get out of here."
On Liu Huadong's side, his assistant lowered his head, looking at the ground, and said timidly, "Boss Liu, we've found that woman. She's staying in room 1801 and she checked out half an hour ago."
Liu Huadong kicked the car door in frustration, cursing, "Bitch, don't let me catch you. If I catch you, I'll let Tiger play games with you."
…
On the afternoon of the third day after returning to Beijinzhou, Chu Qiao was urgently called to the office by Sister Ao.
Chu Qiao placed his hands on the desk and said straight to the point, "What have you found?"
Chen Ao handed the information to Chu Qiao. "The information shows that Liu Huadong's Huadong Pharmaceutical Factory was previously unknown, but it became famous five years ago for a medicine - Angong Niuhuang Wan."
Chu Qiao nodded. "I know this medicine. In addition to its heat-clearing and detoxifying effects, it also has a significant sedative effect on the central nervous system. It also has a strong resuscitation and brain-protective effect on sudden cerebral infarction."
Chen Ao: "This medicine used to be a must-have in almost every household. I see my dad taking it every year during the Waking of Insects Festival. But in the past two years, the price of this medicine has been hyped up to 3,000 yuan per pill, and most people can no longer afford it."
3,000 yuan?
Chu Qiao was amazed at the value of this small pill and muttered, "In addition to using common Chinese medicinal materials such as bezoar, musk, and astragalus, Angong Niuhuang Wan most importantly uses ox horn. The ancient recipe used rhinoceros horn, but due to the gradual decline in rhino populations, the country banned the use of rhino horn, so the rhino horn in the formula was replaced by buffalo horn. Logically, buffalo horn is very cheap."
Chen Ao pointed to a few highlighted sentences in the information. "That's the problem. Look at the data here. According to investigations, as the formula was later changed, the efficacy of the medicine became weaker. However, Angong Niuhuang Wan from Huadong Pharmaceutical Factory was rumored to have successfully saved many patients from cerebral infarction. Since then, Angong has been monopolized by Huadong Pharmaceutical Factory in the Beidou market, and the price has remained high."
Chu Qiao snorted coldly, "It's impossible for the same buffalo horn to have such a huge difference in medicinal effect... It seems that Liu Huadong's poaching of snow leopards is just the tip of the iceberg. There are many things hidden underground."
The scene of that day at the pharmaceutical factory appeared in Chu Qiao's mind. If he wanted to make medicinal materials with rhino horns, the rhinos in the room that day would not be enough. Where were the other rhinos?
Chu Qiao continued to look through the information.
In Liu Huadong's background information, his household registration is separate, and there is no way to find out who his parents are, let alone his relationships. Apart from cooperating with several major drugstore chains, he drinks and gambles every day and has no other hobbies.
More detailed information cannot be obtained unless you go to the police station to file a case.
The clue is broken.
Chu Qiao was wandering alone on the street, scratching his hair which was almost a mess as he walked.
"Master, there's a phone call—"
Chu Qiao was stunned and looked at the people around her. The sound kept coming back to her mind, and then she remembered that it was Brother Feng who changed her ringtone to this playful one.
The caller ID showed that it was Mo Tao's number. He sounded extremely anxious and wanted to meet Chu Qiao.
Chu Qiao was afraid of being followed, so she chose a private restaurant in an alley. She turned left and right several times around the street before she arrived at the place.
When we arrived, Feng Ge and Mo Tao were already seated.
Mo Tao hasn't changed much from before. If there is any change, it's probably that his clothes are now nicer and his hair has been permed from its original refreshing straight style to the current popular hairstyle.
Brother Feng looked Mo Tao up and down, pointing at his attire and saying, "Master Chu, look at Mo Tao. It's only been half a month, and he's changed so much."
Mo Tao touched his nose and smiled innocently, "I can't help it. I've been following President Liu around lately. He says I'm unsophisticated and wants me to do something."
Brother Feng: "It seems like we have penetrated the enemy."
Chu Qiao remained silent, observing Mo Tao silently, looking at his out-of-place clothes and the micro-expressions on his face.
Mo Tao realized Chu Qiao's silence and looked at Chu Qiao with confusion in his eyes.
Chu Qiao looked at his eyes, which were as clear as usual, and raised the corners of his mouth. It seemed that he had been worrying too much. He said, "Let's talk about business first. What's the rush?"
Mo Tao lowered his head and said, "The tiger that our association recently rescued is missing, and a snake is also missing."
Feng Ge opened his eyes wide and almost cried out in surprise: "Lost?"
Mo Tao waved his hands and whispered, "No, they said he couldn't adapt to the environment and died. He was buried overnight."
Brother Feng looked at Chu Qiao: "You're not abusing him again, are you?"
"I don't know either, but I saw these two guys before, and they were in good condition." Mo Tao pushed the hair hanging in front of his eyes away and blinked uncomfortably.
Chu Qiao's focus wasn't on the missing animals. It wasn't surprising that the animal association lost anything. She asked, "Can you enter the breeding area?"
Mo Tao: "Yes, now they trust me. I occasionally go out to socialize with President Liu, but most of the time I stay in the breeding area to watch over the breeders and make sure they don't slack off."
Chu Qiao nodded: "Go on, do you have any other clues?"
Mo Tao: "No, just those two animals. They have been in good condition and have no signs of illness. I am worried that they will be killed."
Chu Qiao secretly noted the time he lost track of time and said seriously, "I'll go back and check. Be careful and don't expose yourself."
Mo Tao nodded, and suddenly said mysteriously: "Oh, there is another piece of gossip."
Feng Ge's eyes widened, and he was obviously more interested in gossip: "What gossip? Is it an erotic story?"
Mo Tao shook his head: "It was President Liu's secretary who was beaten."
