Zhou Tong Detective Series

Chapter 19 Zhou Tong Detective Series I: Death Tarot Cards (19)
"Before the visit, Officer Yan might as well have a sip of tea first. This is the top-quality tea I brought from Japan." Jin Tianben took a cup of hot tea with a smile and took a sip.

Yan Yongjie took the tea and hesitated a little, but she still took a sip.

Jin Tianben saw that Yan Yongjie had no interest in tea, so he stood up and said gracefully: "Officer Yan, please follow me.".

Yan Yongjie put down the teacup in her hand and followed behind Jin Tian Motoichi.

The interior furnishings and decoration of this small castle in Kaneda Motoichi can be said to be resplendent and luxurious.The walls are mostly inlaid with multicolored marble, or pasted with brocade.All kinds of giant crystal lamps are hung in the room, and the jade leaves of Qiongzhi are crystal clear and bright.The walls and ceilings of the main rooms are covered with murals and ceiling paintings, the themes mainly include Japanese myths and some famous Western paintings.And Motoichi Kaneda also introduced to Yan Yongjie these valuable works of art in his collection.

"This is Giotto's "The Kiss of Judas", which tells the story of Judas' betrayal of the Lord in the Bible. King Herod was determined to destroy the Son of God, Jesus, and paid a lot of money to arrest Jesus. Among the twelve disciples of Jesus, there are A man named Judas betrayed his teacher under the lure of a lot of money. The Pharisees sent by King Herod said they did not know Jesus. Judas suggested: "When I approach a person and kiss him, he is Jesus." Therefore, from now on, the kiss of Judas is a secret signal to betray the Lord, the kiss of sin. I also hate those who are Judas, and they are the ones who should be crucified!" Kaneda Motoichi walked forward After a few steps, he pointed to another painting and continued to introduce: "This painting is called "Giving the Country". Ji, for this purpose, sent three envoys as representatives of Gao Tianyuan to negotiate. The first envoy was Tian Huoxi, and the second envoy was Tian Ruo Riri. Both of them were co-opted by the master of the country, and they did not complete the mission and did not return to Gao Tianyuan. So God Amaterasu sent a third envoy. They were Leishen Jianyulei and Daojinjinzhu. When these two envoys arrived at the seaside of Izumo, they immediately turned their swords and asked the Great Country Lord to give up the country. Great Country Lord After a battle with Jian Yulei, after the defeat, the land was finally handed over to the god of Tianjin, and then Niniki descended to the earth. It is said that before the son of the god descended to the earth, all kinds of evil spirits could be exorcised."

Yan Yongjie, who has been listening to it all the time, has also read some history of Japanese mythology. Knowing that the Son of God mentioned by Motoichi Kaneda is a symbol of the Japanese Emperor, she couldn't help it anymore and said: "President Jintian, why do I feel that what you said What are the gods and the great country master implying?"

"Officer Yan is just joking. This is just a religious myth in Japan." As soon as Jin Tianmoto finished speaking, he led Yan Yongjie to visit other places.

But when Yan Yongjie came to the third floor of this small castle, he saw a mural of "Reaper" on an inconspicuous wall, wearing a dark battle robe, holding a light wheel sickle, majestic, the most impressive Surprisingly, the Grim Reaper in the painting is also smiling.

Yan Yongjie will never forget the smiling Grim Reaper on the "Death Tarot Card", which is exactly the same as the Grim Reaper on this mural.

"This mural is..." Seeing this mural, Yan Yongjie immediately felt an indescribable fear.

"Smiling Death! I asked a Japanese painter to help me create this." Motoichi Kaneda didn't expect Yan Yongjie to see this mural, so he hurried over and introduced it.

Yan Yongjie tried her best to calm herself down first, and then said: "President Jin Tian's preference is really strange, he would even decorate a mural of the god of death in the room.".

Kindamoto smiled when he heard the words, and then said relaxedly: "'Reaper' makes many people think of the end first, and it is an ominous symbol. In fact, this is not the case. The earliest legends of 'Reaper' come from ancient Rome and ancient times. Greek mythology. The god of death in Roman mythology is not a symbol of evil, but a representative of public power. Because the god of death treats everyone fairly, no matter good or evil, as long as your life span reaches the end, the god of death will give you A fair trial. And the smiling Grim Reaper symbolizes the end of an old period and the beginning of a new one, a process of changing life!"

"Listening to President Jintian's words has really benefited me a lot. I really hope to have the opportunity to hear your opinion again, but it is a little late now, and I think I have to rush back to the bureau." Yan Yongjie listened to Jintian Motoichi. If so, I can almost be sure that the source of the death tarot card is the president of the international consortium. It seems that Zhou Tong's deduction is not bad, and what she needs to do now is to leave immediately and investigate the chemical fertilizer of Qifeng Group immediately. Factory, to stop their conspiracy, if they succeed, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Since Officer Yan still has business to do, I don't dare to stay longer, let me take you out." Jin Tian Motoichi politely led Yan Yongjie downstairs, and then walked her all the way to the door.

"President, please stay. If necessary, I will visit you again." Yan Yongjie was anxious to say goodbye to Jin Tianmoto.

"Please don't worry, if there is anything that can help you, just come to me." Jin Tian Motoichi seemed to always have a charming smile on his face.

When Yan Yongjie pushed the door and went out, the ugly old man came out from nowhere.

"Kuroi Hiromitsu, is everything done?" Kaneda Motoichi turned around and asked.

The ugly old man grabbed his hair with his hand, and then lifted it vigorously, a beautiful human skin mask was taken off, and finally revealed his true face, a handsome but also cunning face, Iga Ninja The leader, Hiromitsu Kuroi.

"President, don't worry, there will be an accident soon." Kuroi Hiromitsu showed his white teeth when he smiled.

Yan Yongjie left Kaneda Motoichi's castle, ran down the mountain, and drove straight to the city.However, 10 minutes before the car left, Gu Tiancheng called.

"Yong Jie, come to Qifeng Chemical Fertilizer Factory immediately..."

"You went to the Qifeng Chemical Fertilizer Factory by yourself?" Yan Yongjie was a little angry. Gu Tiancheng had always been steady and experienced, and rarely acted rashly, but this time he went into a dangerous place alone.But how did she know that Gu Tiancheng did this entirely for her, that's why he lost his mind and was eager for success.

"Yes, I will explain to you later, I found out here..." Before Gu Tiancheng could speak, there was a sudden noise from the other end of the phone, and the call was hung up.

Yan Yongjie called again, but she couldn't get through, but that was not enough. The anxious Yan Yongjie wanted to stop the car, but she let go of the accelerator and stepped on the brake, but there was no response, and the speed of the car did not decrease at all.

"Kinda Motoichi!" At this moment, Yan Yongjie wanted to scratch his skin and stretch his tendons.

Seeing the car speeding along the mountain road like this, Yan Yongjie was sweating profusely, trying hard to control the steering wheel. Every time she passed a curve, her heart beat violently. Any slight mistake could cause her car to be destroyed. .

However, there is something that makes Yan Yongjie more worried. Once the car enters the urban area full of traffic, it will be even more dangerous.So no matter what, Yan Yongjie had to solve the problem on the mountain road, otherwise not only his own life would be lost, but also others would be accidentally injured.Thinking of this, Yan Yongjie decided to take a risk and let the car crash into the mountain beside the road.

Yan Yongjie took a deep breath, and pushed open the car door next to her. Just in front of her, there was an S-shaped turn, but this time she didn't swing the steering wheel, but let the car go straight out.At the moment when the car was about to crash, Yan Yongjie kicked the door of the car outwards, and jumped out of the car by herself.

With a loud bang, the car crashed into the rock beside it, and there was a violent explosion, and the flames soared into the sky, dyeing the night sky red.

Zhou Tong was like an ant on a hot pot at home, walking around non-stop. It was past two o'clock in the morning, but Yan Yongjie hadn't come back yet. When she called her, the phone was turned off, and even when calling Gu Tiancheng, it was also turned off. "These two people have already gone to the fertilizer factory?" Zhou Tong always had a lingering foreboding in his heart.

Just as he was restless, the door was pushed open with a bang.

"Yongjie!" Zhou Tong was shocked when he saw Yan Yongjie's appearance, because he had never seen Yan Yongjie in such a mess.

Yan Yongjie's hair was disheveled, her body was covered in mud, her clothes were torn apart, and there was even a little blood on her forehead.

"What's wrong with you?"

"My car was tampered with by Motoichi Jintian!" Yan Yongjie said bitterly.

Zhou Tong asked eagerly: "Have you found any evidence of his crime?".

"That's not true. If we really find out, I'm afraid he won't just play tricks on my car." Yan Yongjie shook her head regretfully.

"You should change your clothes first, take a shower, and then wipe some..."

"It's too late. I'm coming back to get my car and some equipment, and I'm going to Qifeng's fertilizer factory immediately. Gu Tiancheng is very likely to be in danger!" Yan Yongjie interrupted Zhou Tong, and hurried into her room to fetch got the car keys.The police car she was driving to was destroyed, and now she has to drive her own car.

"Are you going alone? Why don't you inform Team Leader Sun and bring a large group of people to kill him directly!" Zhou Tong didn't want to let Yan Yongjie take risks.

"It's a shame that you still say that you are smart. Now you have no evidence. How can you take a large team to the fertilizer factory of the Qifeng Group? If you start to scare the snake, I'm afraid things will be even more difficult in the future."

"I'll go with you!"

"It's too dangerous, you should stay here." Seeing Zhou Tong caring so much about herself, Yan Yongjie felt an indescribable touch in her heart.

"We've all experienced more dangerous things, so what are you afraid of? Don't you still trust me?" Zhou Tong's tone was firm and unquestionable.

Yan Yongjie knew that he could never stop Zhou Tong's decision at this moment, even if he didn't take him with him, he would definitely find a way to go by himself, which would be more dangerous.

"Okay!" Yan Yongjie looked at Zhou Tong who had no hesitation, and finally made a final decision.

Qifeng Chemical Fertilizer Factory is a chemical enterprise under Qifeng Group specializing in chemical production and scientific research and development. Its total assets are 60 billion yuan. The annual production capacity of its leading products is 500 million tons of synthetic ammonia, 100 million tons of urea, 200 million tons of methanol, Potassium carbonate is 150 million tons and NHD is 10 tons. It can also produce more than ten kinds of products such as various gases and plastic steel profiles.The total amount of chemical fertilizer produced in one year accounts for a quarter of the country's total. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a giant in the domestic chemical fertilizer industry.

When Zhou Tong and Yan Yongjie arrived at the Qifeng Fertilizer Factory, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning. When they saw the Qifeng Fertilizer Factory covering an area of ​​nearly tens of thousands of square meters, they couldn't help being dumbfounded.

"It's not difficult for me to go in, but it's really difficult to find Gu Tiancheng and the batch of fertilizer they want to donate after entering!" Yan Yongjie said with a sigh.

"The boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridge, and there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. Let's go in and talk about it." Zhou Tong looked fearless.

Now that she's here, Yan Yongjie has no choice but to back off, so she has no choice but to bite the bullet and lead Zhou Tong around the wall behind the factory building.

"Look carefully, there are two cameras on the wall here, let's find a way to hide them first!" Yan Yongjie pulled Zhou Tong to the corner of the wall and pointed upwards.

"Didn't you bring a big bag of weird equipment, now it's time to use it." Zhou Tong was not worried about such things at all.

"You have sharp eyes!" Yan Yongjie smiled, and took out two devices that looked like MP4 players from her bag, "This is a video playback device. Let's record an empty scene according to the angle of the camera, and then you can see I gesture, point at the camera, we press the ejector of this device at the same time, and we're done, understand?"

Zhou Tong took one from Yan Yongjie's hand, fiddled with it, and said with a smile: "I see, I understand, I never thought you have such advanced gadgets, it's almost like 007 in the movie."

"Stop talking nonsense, you take care of the one here, I'll go over there, be careful!" Yan Yongjie warned.

Zhou Tong put away her smile and nodded cautiously.

Yan Yongjie and Zhou Tong respectively recorded the corresponding scenes according to the angles of the two cameras.Yan Yongjie gestured to Zhou Tong, and the two of them pressed the button at the same time, and there was a swish sound, and the two video playback devices were ejected like missiles, and they just hit the camera on the wall with no weight.

"So? I'm not bad!" Zhou Tong just wanted to brag, but when he looked up, his heart immediately turned cold, "Wait...wait a minute, the wall is at least four or five meters long, even if there is no camera , how do we go up?"

Zhou Tong looked at the wall, feeling dizzy.

"This height doesn't bother me!" Saying that, Yan Yongjie breathed out, then pulled Zhou Tong up, and leaped up the wall in a few strides.

In just a few seconds, Zhou Tong only felt a few ups and downs, and the two of them had already gone from outside the wall to inside the wall.

"It's really amazing, can you teach me this wall-climbing martial art in the future?" Zhou Tong blinked.

"Beautiful thought! Hurry up and go in!" Yan Yongjie dragged Zhou Tong carefully to avoid the hidden post and the bright post, wandering around in the maze-like factory area, and finally slipped into a large building in order to avoid several security guards.

"Have you noticed that the security here is a little different?" Zhou Tong asked softly in Yan Yongjie's ear.

Yan Yongjie said with a serious expression: "Well, I saw that they are all equipped with guns, and they all speak Japanese."

"It seems that we did not go wrong this time. This is not a factory, it is worse than the guards in the prison..." Before Zhou Tong finished speaking, Yan Yongjie covered his mouth with his hands.

"Someone come here." Yan Yongjie pulled him to hide behind a pile of debris.

After a while, sure enough, two people walked over talking.

"The higher-ups told me that a new additive should be added to this batch of fertilizers. Has the work been completed yet?" one of them asked.

"Oh, don't mention it, I have to work overtime again tonight, but the fertilizer we produce has never been added with this kind of additive before, and I don't know what it is?" Another person asked a little dissatisfied.

"We are part-time workers, and the boss ordered us to do so, so we have to do it."

……

Zhou Tong and Yan Yongjie exchanged glances immediately when they heard their conversation.

"Knock one out, then grab one and ask!" Zhou Tong looked at Yan Yongjie and said.

"I didn't expect to illegally extract a confession here today." Yan Yongjie rushed behind them, knocked one of them unconscious, and then grabbed the other.

"Don't bark, or you'll be the one to watch!" Yan Yongjie took out a gun and pointed it at his forehead and threatened him sternly.

The arrested person dared not scream, he was so frightened that he did not dare to take a breath.

"Let me ask you, is the batch of chemical fertilizer you just mentioned donated to the Ministry of Agriculture?" Yan Yongjie asked.

"Yes, it is!"

"Where is that batch of fertilizer processed?"

"It's upstairs..." The man had just finished speaking when Yan Yongjie slapped him again, knocking him out.

"Come here and help move them into the cardboard box first!" Yan Yongjie greeted Zhou Tong.

After the two of them finished the aftermath, they carefully slipped up to the second floor.

Sure enough, there are more than a dozen assembly lines running non-stop here. Several nozzles are installed on the top of the conveyor belt. Some green liquid is sprayed on the fertilizer and then bagged. The workers then consign the bagged fertilizer to the storehouse.What makes people feel strange is that after those green liquids were sprinkled on the fertilizer, the fertilizer that was dyed green returned to its original state in less than ten seconds.

"We have to find a way to get some green liquid." Zhou Tong said while looking around.

"There are so many workers, and there are security guards with guns all around, how can they get it?" Yan Yongjie dared not take such a bold risk even though she was good at martial arts.

"It's not like you just rush out to grab it, look over there!" Zhou Tong pointed to a worker resting in the corner and said, "There is no security over there, and it's a dead corner. It shouldn't be difficult to take off the work uniform, right?"

"You're the one who pays more attention!" Yan Yongjie smiled.

But in less than 5 minutes, Yan Yongjie slipped back with her work uniform.

"Okay, the rest is up to me!" Zhou Tong said as he changed into his work uniform, and then walked out in a grandiose manner.
