Shanghai City, regardless of the past, once was glorious. At that time, Shanghai City was the most dazzling pearl in the entire East. Both fish and dragons can swim in the Huangpu River. As long as they can cross the dragon gate here, no matter how small it is, The fish will one day turn into a dragon.
Today's Shanghai City is ready to rise again. There are construction sites everywhere, building high-rise buildings, digging subways, building elevated roads, and building roads. Old houses were demolished and converted into shopping malls, office buildings, and high-end residences. There is a thriving scene everywhere.
This is the riverside beach in Shanghai City. Everyone who comes to Shanghai for the first time will come here to appreciate the humanities and history of Shanghai.
Each building on the riverside beach has its own characteristics, proving that Shanghai and Shanghai were once uniquely prosperous. At the same time, these buildings from various countries are also a mark of humiliation for the entire Chinese nation.
Nowadays, the houses here are either banks, securities companies, jewelry stores, banking houses, or big international brands. The whole street smells like banknotes.
There is nothing hanging on the facade of No. 17 Jiangbiantan. Few people have seen the big iron door here opened, and no one knows what it is for. On such an avenue lined with gold, this house looks fresh and refined.
Someone came to take pictures of the door here today. The door knocker was knocked three times rhythmically, and then three more times. After a while, a small window on the door was opened, and the person who knocked on the door inserted a warm jade pendant through the open window. On the jade pendant was carved a delicate and vivid epiphyllum.
After a while, a small door on the big iron door was slowly opened.
The indoor floor is ten meters high and looks particularly grand. The combination of Western-style decoration and Chinese-style decoration is not obtrusive at all here. They are perfectly combined to show a unique charm.
The visitor was none other than Professor Lin, who had suffered many setbacks in China. He was led by a beautiful assistant through the lobby on the first floor. Both sides of the aisle on the first floor were filled with staff busy in front of computers. In this era, every staff member It is considered a luxury for everyone to have a computer. People who work here have more than two computers and several phones on their desks.
When we came to the second floor, it was divided into independent offices. In each office, there was a group of energetic young people working selflessly.
Professor Lin couldn't imagine that he had never seen such a scene even in the United States. This was not a passion that could only be stimulated by money. This kind of selfless and dedicated work state is amazing. Professor Lin is very envious and admires the boss here very much.
When I arrived on the third floor, the first thing I saw was a door, a large vermilion wooden door. The secretary opened the door, and the entire floor of several hundred square meters was opened. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows illuminated the interior exceptionally well. Looking out the window, this is almost the best viewing position on the entire riverside beach. You can have an unobstructed view of the river and the buildings on the other side.
There is also a large terrace of hundreds of square meters outside the floor-to-ceiling window. In this area where land is at a premium, having such an office is simply an unparalleled luxury, and being able to work here is even more enjoyable.
There is a person here, she is not in the office, her behavior is very inconsistent with the environment here, she is eating breakfast on the sofa, the breakfast is the traditional Shanghai Four King Kong, flatbread, fried dough sticks, rice, and soy milk.
This person's clothes also didn't match the environment here. She wore a pair of silk underwear and a robe over her pajamas.
The way she dressed and ate breakfast in this office was like a drop of black ink on the white silk, so conspicuous and abrupt.
When Professor Lin saw this person's face, the black ink spots melted away in an instant. This is a young girl in her prime. In the opinion of the well-informed Professor Lin, this face of this girl can be said to be perfect. Such a beauty instantly dims everything around her.
"Sit down." The girl spoke extremely calmly. This calmness has gone beyond indifference.
Professor Lin sat down on the sofa opposite the girl. Looking at the girl's perfect face, he forgot how to speak.
"Come to me, why don't you say anything." The girl's tone of voice showed no trace of emotion, and it matched perfectly with her perfect face, as if this is how a real beauty should speak.
"I'm curious about something." The girl's words seemed to be magical.
Professor Lin followed her lead and replied, "I don't know what could make Miss curious."
"How did you find this place?"
Professor Lin said with a somewhat painful expression, "In order to find you, we spent a full month and found twelve brokers all over China. Finally, we got some information from a broker in Shu."
The girl said, "It's the third son, right?"
"Yes."
"He probably won't speak. Is he still alive?"
When asked about this, Professor Lin didn't know how to answer. This state aroused Professor Lin's suspicion, but he still answered truthfully, "Still alive."
"How did you get him to speak?"
"This person is very tough, and almost all interrogations have no effect. In the end, some drugs were used. He is still alive, but he may have a mental problem." After finishing speaking, Professor Lin looked at the girl opposite, eager to see from both of them. Some mood changes.
The girl continued calmly, "That's no wonder. Then I got the Epiphyllum Token from him, too."
Professor Lin discovered the problem at this moment, why he could not help but answer truthfully when asked by the other party. He closed his eyes and began to use Knowledge to examine himself. It is not a problem for ordinary people. When a problem is discovered, it is no longer a problem. In fact, many illusion techniques and Wu techniques are like this. I'm afraid you won't be able to tell that you are already in an illusion.
Professor Lin opened his eyes, with a slight smile on his lips and said, "Sorry, I'm not here to be interrogated."
Looking at the girl's face again, she is still perfect at this moment, but she lacks that inexplicable sense of sacred worship. Professor Lin can now confirm that the girl has exerted some kind of secret technique on him.
The girl knew that her technique had been discovered, so she was not angry and changed the subject, "I don't know why Professor Lin came to my place."
Professor Lin was interested when he heard this and asked, "Beautiful lady, you actually recognize me. This should be my honor, but where do you start from? Why do I need you here? Don't you know? ?” Professor Lin began to control the rhythm of the conversation.
"Do you know our rules?"
"Of course." He said and took out six envelopes from the inner pocket of his suit. "In each envelope here is a cashier's check worth half a million federal dollars.
These are deposits, and I need you to help me find six people. "
"If you want to find someone, go to the police station. We can't handle it."
There was a brief silence in the office.
Professor Lin took out another envelope and put it on the coffee table. "It's okay if you don't find anyone, but I must be there before you take action."
The girl's expression remained unchanged as she said, "Give me the information."
