Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

Chapter 371 Crow Badge

In the car, Xu Zhihui browsed the online news on her phone. The kidnapping of He Zhijing in Beijing was on the hot search, and it was all the same. In the photos, He Zhijing and Cheng Yue were tied behind their backs in the car, looking very embarrassed. The clarity was very high, and it should have been taken by the criminals.

After a few glances, she felt uncomfortable and simply put away her phone. Looking at the rainy weather outside, she felt even more depressed. She thought to herself, "He Xiaoer is a victim, and these negative news have little impact on him, but Li Songling definitely has more tricks than these."

When they came out of Hejia Path and reached the intersection of Fuwanli Avenue, Xu Zhihui suddenly said, "Old Wu, let's go to Villa No. 19 in Fuliwan District." Old Wu asked curiously, "Madam, what are you going to Fuliwan for?" Xu Zhihui said, "To find someone."

She remembered that Gao Jun was temporarily living at No. 19 Fuli Bay, and suddenly an idea came to her mind: why not go directly to Gao Jun's house to find out the truth.

Old Wu immediately turned left and drove towards Fuliwan District. He drove along the avenue for more than 19 minutes and drove into a high-end villa area at the foot of the mountain. He found Villa No. according to the house number and parked at the gate. Old Wu said, "Madam, we're here."

Xu Zhihui looked out the window and saw that the villa was as magnificent as the He family's mansion. It had a thick iron gate and a wall about three or four meters high. Old Wu got out of the car with an umbrella, went up to the door and pressed the doorbell a few times. After waiting for two minutes without a response, he returned to the car and said, "Madam, no one is here."

Xu Zhihui said, "I'll go in and take a look. Old Wu, you wait here." Old Wu was stunned for a moment, wondering, "How do I get in? Do I kick the door? It's hard to kick an iron door." Xu Zhihui got out of the car, walked to the door, and jumped in like a bird flying over the wall. Old Wu was stunned and thought to himself, "Madam, how can you fly over walls?" He shook his head in surprise and sat back in the car to wait.

Xu Zhihui jumped into the yard. The rain was melted away by the Phoenix Fire within two meters around her, and she didn't get any rain on her body. She stood there and looked around. This yard was not well maintained. The outdoor swimming pool was not filled with water and was full of dust. The falling rain washed out small streams and flowed away from the outlet. The rolling door of the garage was open, and a Bugatti Veyron was parked inside, gathering dust. The other parking space was empty.

She thought to herself, "Gao Jun may not live here all the time." She walked to the front of the house and stepped onto the steps. The door was also closed. She looked around but couldn't find any windows or anything like that. She raised her foot and kicked the door open with a bang. She walked into the house and turned on the light. The house was empty and deserted. She walked around and sat down on the sofa.

She looked at a bottle of whiskey with a little bit of alcohol left on the table, three wine glasses, and some empty plates. Someone had been drinking here last night. She frowned and thought to herself, "Three people? Could one of them be Li Songling?" She picked up a wine glass and saw a wine-red lip print on the rim. She thought to herself, "A Gao Jun, a woman, and Li Songling. Could these three people be plotting something last night?"

She got up and walked down the stairs to the second floor. There were three rooms. She walked into a bedroom, took a few glances, opened the closet, and rummaged around with her hands covering her mouth and nose. Sure enough, they were all men's clothes. One of them was a blue suit that he had worn when Gao Jun first met her. She walked into the bathroom and washed her hands before coming out.

After leaving the bedroom, there were two other rooms. One was also a bedroom, with nothing in it except a bed. The other was a study. She walked in and turned on the light. There was a computer on the table, but it required a password to turn it on, so she gave up.

Xu Zhihui sat on the chair and looked around the study. It was a very ordinary study with only a few books. She thought to herself, "Could there be any secret compartments?" She carefully checked the four walls but found nothing. She sat back on the chair, bent down and looked. There was a small safe in the corner under the desk.

Xu Zhihui moved the safe to the table, stretched out a finger, and a small flame appeared on the finger. She drew a line along the safe from top to bottom, like cutting tofu, cutting the door of the safe in half, and then broke it open. She took out two things from it and placed them on the table.

It was a black badge, slightly smaller than the palm of the hand, and felt quite heavy in the hand. There was a pattern on the front, a crow, and the carving was very fine. On the back was a big "X" symbol. Xu Zhihui frowned and pondered: "The badge must represent Gao Jun's identity, and it may be a token within Blackwater. Is Gao Jun's code name 'Crow' or X?"

The other thing was a thin manual. After reading the first page, Xu Zhihui guessed that it was an organizational chart, like a tree structure. The top layer had ten boxes, and except for three boxes with a head portrait, the other boxes were empty. Expanding along the third box, the node at the third layer was an "X", with six boxes below, one of which had a crow pattern.

Seeing this, Xu Zhihui immediately understood that X represented a group or a department, and "Crow" was Gao Jun's code name. He was in Group X, which had a total of six members.

Xu Zhihui was suddenly stunned, her eyes fixed on another pattern in the same group, which was a bat. She was very surprised and screamed, "Bat?" Her brows knitted together, and she thought to herself, "Ye Ge's company is called 'Bat Asia', and she calls herself the 'Bat Queen'. Could this bat refer to Ye Ge? So Ye Ge is also a member of Heishui."

Suddenly, a horn sounded outside. Old Wu was honking the horn. After all, he felt guilty. He didn't have time to look at the manual again. Xu Zhihui put the two things in his pocket. After thinking about it, he decided to use the Phoenix Fire to burn the safe without leaving any trace. Then he went downstairs, climbed over the wall from the other side, and went back to the front door.

I saw several men in uniforms holding umbrellas and talking loudly to Lao Wu. They seemed to be from Fuliwan Management Company. One of them shouted, "If you are not the owner or tenant, leave quickly. You cannot stay here." Xu Zhihui walked over and said, "We are here to look for someone. The owner is not here. If you don't let us wait, we will leave now." Then he got into the car and said to Lao Wu, "Let's go."

Old Wu replied, "Yes." He sat back in the driver's seat, started the car and drove away. Xu Zhihui looked out the rear window and saw one of them was on the phone. She thought to herself, "Gao Jun probably rented this villa, and these people are responsible for taking care of it." Old Wu asked, "Madam, did you kick the door in just now?" Xu Zhihui smiled and said, "The door was closed, so of course I had to kick it." Old Wu laughed and said, "Madam, you are really awesome."

Arriving at New Town Plaza, Xu Zhihui went up from the underground parking lot and headed straight to the second floor. At a glance, the second floor was full of advertisements and colorful flags, and there were many people crowded with celebratory flower baskets. From a distance, she saw a bright and shiny store, with the "Lan Hui" sign standing out.

The He Group had made early arrangements and bought this entire floor, which was full of He's stores, including cosmetics and watch stores. At the end was the office area of ​​He's Jewelry, where the unveiling ceremony was held. Old Wu parted the crowd in front and cleared a path for Xu Zhihui.

When the jewelry department employees saw Xu Zhihui coming, they all said in unison, "Madam, you're here." Xu Zhihui smiled and nodded in response, and asked a supervisor, "Is the unveiling ceremony over?" The supervisor replied, "It just ended, and there will be a press conference later."

Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "Okay." She followed the supervisor forward. As they walked, the supervisor said, "Many guests and leaders are here. Madam, your family is here too." Xu Zhihui said "hmm" and looked around. In addition to the crowd and media reporters, there were also many security personnel standing there, so she asked, "What are the security measures?"

The supervisor boasted with a smile: "In addition to the employees of our security department, we have also hired a professional security company. Don't worry, madam, security will not be a problem." Xu Zhihui nodded again and said: "Okay. You have worked hard, you can go and do your thing." The supervisor went away.

Xu Zhihui approached the jewelry department's office and saw Mo Xingshu, the deputy manager of the public relations department, busy outside the aisle, so she stepped forward to say hello and asked, "Manager Mo, how is it?" The Human Resources and Administration Department had already notified that Jiang Muxin was temporarily suspended, and today's promotional activities would be hosted by Mo Xingshu.

Mo Xingshu smiled and said, "Madam, you are here too. President He and President Cheng are both inside. They are holding a press conference. It has just started." Pointing at the reporters on the scene, she said, "In addition to some specially invited media, there are also many media who came voluntarily." Xu Zhihui smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Manager Mo." Then she quietly asked her, "Are there any reporters coming to cause trouble?" Mo Xingshu was stunned at first, but immediately understood and said, "Not yet."

Xu Zhihui followed Mo Xingshu into the venue and found a seat at the back. She saw He Zhijing sitting in the middle of the podium, with Cheng Yue and Zhao Fang on the left and right, as well as the managers and designers of He's Jewelry. When He Zhijing saw her come in, his face lit up.

Xu Zhihui smiled at He Zhijing. Xu Qianrou, who was sitting in the front row, looked back, walked over and sat down next to her, and whispered, "Ah Hui, have you seen the news online?" Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "I have." Xu Qianrou said, "The unveiling ceremony was noisy for a while."
