Chapter 46: Entering the Palace for the Second Time (Part 1)
For a whole day, Mei Qian did not leave the conference hall of the General Administration. The briefing on the case alone took a whole morning.
In the afternoon, amid countless flashing lights, Mayor Xiadu stood on the stage and shook hands with Mei Qian warmly. He first praised Mei Qian for his courage to take on this responsibility, regardless of personal safety, and made outstanding contributions to protecting people's lives, and then thanked him for many years.
He paid tribute to his efforts to enrich the spiritual life of the people of Xia State, and praised him as an outstanding contemporary writer worthy of learning from all young people.
Mei Qian didn't dare to say anything, and took the certificate of "Good Citizen of Xiadu" and the check of 100,000 yuan with both hands.
While taking the photo, he lowered his eyes modestly, but he happened to fall into the group of police representatives in the audience and came into contact with a sharp gaze.
Smiling slightly, he immediately retracted his gaze and raised his head to look straight ahead.
But by coincidence, this short moment of eye contact was captured by a live broadcast device, and the video was later added with special effects of lightning and flames.
[Is this a tit-for-tat confrontation between enemies? I heard that it was Captain Qin who led the arrest of Mei Qian...]
[The person above is right. What’s even more interesting is that after Mei Qian came out, Captain Qin Sen specially sent a message saying that he wanted to get to the bottom of Mei Qian’s case.]
[Interesting, now that Mei Qian has official endorsement, can the investigation continue? After all, the police owe Mei Qian a big favor in this matter, right?]
[However, Mei Qian did a really good job this time, saving dozens of people at once. It is normal for the official to give him the honor.]
[One code equals another, I support Captain Qin in arresting Mei Qian, the tomb robber leader.]
[As expected of Master Mei, he is still so arrogant in front of the police...]
[Mei Qian: I just like to see you helpless with me, it’s so cool!]
Mei Qian was reminded by Ning Chi on his way home and also saw this video. He didn't expect that he and Qin Sen would just look at each other and let netizens make up so many tricks.
Am I really that arrogant? Or have I been too arrogant recently? He tried to think back...
I discovered that I am actually quite honest, and everything I do is measured, as I should, but it doesn’t seem to matter!
And he is used to the ridicule and arrangement of netizens, so it doesn't hurt him anyway.
Captain Qin, on the other hand, may be troubled for a while, but what does this have to do with him?
The stiff smile forced on Captain Qin's dark face appeared in front of him again, hiss! It felt really good.
After dinner was done and Ning Chi left, Mei Qian locked the door, washed her hands first, and then quietly called up the lottery system.
The current popularity level allows for two more special draws. In fact, he has always wanted to have another detection skill similar to dangerous intuition. It would be better if he could understand people's hearts.
Because during use, although Danger Intuition is convenient, it also exposes its shortcomings.
If the opponent's hostility does not reach the level of murderous intention, or the opponent plans to kill Mei Qian later but has no murderous intention for the time being, in this case the danger intuition will not be triggered. If you encounter an opponent who can restrain his murderous intention in the future, you will
Very detrimental to yourself.
Therefore, he has great expectations for this lottery.
Unfortunately, his hopes were dashed.
After a while, Mei Qian was speechless as he picked out the two things floating and rotating in the lottery interface.
The first item is a pink diamond necklace. It is elegant and beautiful. It is a rare luxury item. It can be used in case you can't think of falling in love or getting married in the future.
But what is the second thing? A cyan four-legged copper tripod that is nearly one meter high. The patterns on it are simple, and the rust stains alone give a sense of vicissitudes of time. Even if he does not know how to play with antiques,
It can be seen at a glance that this tripod has an extraordinary origin and is a treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation.
In the past, he might have just kept it as a handicraft at home, but now he just wants to throw it out as soon as possible because it is hot to the touch.
An exquisite and lovely Tang San colored pottery fox was almost used as evidence of his tomb robbery. When this bronze tripod was put out without even being wiped clean, it was too punishing.
So, he had to organize the system's warehouse, leaving behind the pistols, rifles, night vision devices and other items he had collected abroad, clearing out the sleeping bags, tents and some snacks, making space to store the bronze tripod. And he made plans.
The idea is to find an opportunity to put it at the door of the Cultural Relics Bureau. If not, you can bury it in the suburbs. Anyway, you can't keep it in your hands.
In the next three days, Mei Qian was busy again, almost non-stop.
Of course, the big move that the military is said to be about to carry out has nothing to do with him. He was busy participating in the memorial activities in the square to commemorate the deceased, and went to several funerals in a row.
He was not familiar with the staff at the hot spring resort, but after all, Mei Qian and the writers who died belonged to the same organization, so it was necessary to express their condolences.
January 12th was the memorial service for his favorite science fiction writer Yun Yongyi, and it was said that a memorial service for readers would be held in the afternoon.
It happened that I got up a little late this morning and started getting dressed in a hurry. I didn't even have time to wash my face.
Because it is a group activity for the association of workers, as a rule, Ning Chi cannot be taken with him, which caused the other party to complain: "You have been going out alone for the past few days, aren't you afraid of something happening again?"
"Shut your crow mouth!" Mei Qian glared at him and cursed, grabbed her phone and keys and hurried out the door.
Hurrying slowly, he drove to the suburban cemetery, barely in time, as the activities had not yet started.
At this time, the place was full of people. In addition to relatives and friends of the deceased, there were also writers from Xiadu and the National Writers' Federation, but more of them were readers who came after receiving the news.
After all, he suffered an accident at a young age, and the atmosphere of the funeral was very gloomy and sad.
The family members of the deceased were silent in heartache and crying constantly. Even the readers holding banners outside could hear sobbing from time to time.
I heard that among the hundreds of people gathered here, there were not only locals or those nearby, but some even flew here specially just to see Yun Yongyi one last time.
Bowing with a heavy heart, Mei Qian silently followed the crowd and left the funeral home. When he was about to rush to the venue to attend the memorial service, someone stopped him.
"Hello Mr. Mei, I am a reporter from New Daily Times. Do you have time to be interviewed by me?" The voice was pleasant, and the speaker was a tall and beautiful woman.
"If it's a personal topic about me, I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood for an interview right now." Mei Qian frowned slightly. She didn't know who arranged it, but the media actually intervened and filmed the funeral.
If the other party only asks him to express condolences and admiration for the deceased, he doesn't care to say a few words, but if the topic has nothing to do with the funeral, it would be too inappropriate.
"It only takes up a small part of your time!" The woman did not give up, and said in a tone similar to pleading: "It is related to this case."
