After spending ten long hours on the plane, I landed safely at the Athens International Airport.
Athens is the birthplace of Western civilization.
This ancient city has many architectural traces of ancient Greece, all of which speak of its past glory.
The group came out of the airport, took a taxi and headed to the Marina Hotel.
The hotel is only a few kilometers away from the center of Athens, so prepare to adjust to the time difference here.
During this period, Henry called and said that someone would come to Qin Fan for detailed discussions in the evening.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Fan fell asleep with his head covered.
I don’t know how long it took, but I heard someone knocking on the door.
Yuwen Xiangwan rolled over and climbed up to open the door. When he opened the door, he saw a blond foreigner.
The opponent is very tall and has bulging muscles. He looks like someone who has undergone special training.
"Hello, is Mr. Qin here?" The other party asked in English.
Yuwen Xiangwan looked at the other party warily, but he couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
For a moment, the blond foreigner didn't know whether to advance or retreat.
He wisely did not make any move, because at this time he was like being stared at by a wild beast.
Qin Fan got up from the bed, walked to the door and took a look, and immediately started laughing.
The visitor was Frank, Henry's bodyguard. Qin Fan had met him several times when they were in Hong Kong.
"Frank, it's you, please come in!"
Seeing Qin Fan greeting him, Yuwen Xiangwan relaxed, smiled honestly, and got out of the way.
Frank nodded to Yuwen Xiangwan.
To be honest, although Yuwen Xiangwan is much shorter than him.
But just now, Frank clearly felt a huge danger.
The young man in front of me seemed to possess a terrifying power.
"Mr. Duke, Prince Henry asked me to come here to find you." Frank explained the purpose of his visit very respectfully.
"Well, I know, I have to thank Prince Henry and you this time."
Henry had a special status and it was not very convenient for him to appear here, so he asked Frank to come and receive Qin Fan on his behalf.
Frank smiled humbly and said: "Mr. Duke, you are speaking harshly."
"You are Her Majesty the Queen's distinguished guest, and you are also Prince Henry's friend. You should be of service to me."
Qin Fan smiled kindly.
At this moment, he was somewhat grateful to Queen Elizabeth for granting him the title of Duke.
It was worthless in China, but when it came to the West, it played a great role.
Yuwen Xiangwan made tea for Qin Fan and Frank, and then stepped aside.
Qin Fan communicated with Frank in English, but he was just showing off his ears and didn't know anything.
"Mr. Duke, tomorrow you will take a ship to the town of Fira. It will take about six or seven hours."
Frank said: "Our people have already built momentum there in advance..."
Qin Fan listened quietly to Frank's plan, and then discussed it with Frank for more than an hour.
After the plan was formulated, Frank politely said goodbye and left.
Seeing the door closed, Yuwen Xiangwan touched his head.
"Sir, what are you talking about? I don't know anything."
Qin Fan laughed dumbly, "Go and call Yanni, Brother Yi, and Mr. Ruan."
"yes!"
After a while, Phoenix Girl, Yi Liangzhe, and Ruan Weiguang all came to Qin Fan's room.
Qin Fan then began to make arrangements according to the plan.
This plan is for Prince Henry to use his influence to draw out Lu Zhiwen and divide Lu Zhiwen's power.
Qin Fan and Phoenix Girl are responsible for the final encirclement and annihilation.
If we use the Chinese Thirty-six Strategies, it is to first lure the snake out of the hole, and then catch the turtle in the urn.
This plan requires close cooperation between both parties and there can be no mistakes.
In the small town of Oia, this small white bungalow does not look very big or outstanding from the outside.
But the interior space is compact and orderly, and the decoration is very luxurious and luxurious.
"Uncle Zuo, you said the British Duke invited me?" No. 5 Lu Zhiwen asked suspiciously.
"Yes, there are several other people participating, all of whom are celebrities in our town."
Zuo Xin respectfully handed a gilded invitation to No. 5 Lu Zhiwen.
Lu Zhiwen looked at it on the 5th. The invitation was very formal and had the seal of the embassy.
This kind of invitation is not surprising. Every time a big shot comes to the Blue Dome Church, he will choose a suitable time to meet with local celebrities.
But this was the first time Lu Zhiwen received the invitation on the 5th.
However, he didn't suspect anything.
He put the invitation on the coffee table, picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee.
"Yingying, what do you think of this matter?" No. 5 Lu Zhiwen asked.
"It's up to you."
No. 5 Lu Zhiwen nodded and smiled.
"Well, Yingying and I will both go. It's an honor to be invited by the Grand Duke."
Seeing that Lu Zhiwen was really going to go on the 5th, Zuo Xin hesitated.
"Young Master, Young Madam, is there any problem?"
Xiao Yingying waved her hand.
"Uncle Zuo, Grand Duke is the highest title in the British royal family. Generally, only direct relatives of the royal family can enjoy this title."
"This has the signature and seal of the embassy. It cannot be faked."
Zuo Xin nodded as if he suddenly understood.
He bowed and said with a smile: "Young madam, what you said makes sense, I am a soldier."
"No matter how good Qin Fan's medical skills are, he will never be a relative of the emperor, nor a grand duke, nor can he order the British Embassy to do this."
No. 5 Lu Zhiwen and Xiao Yingying both nodded in agreement.
But they never expected that Elizabeth was keeping a low profile when awarding Qin Fan a medal.
Not many people in China know about it.
Qin Fan indeed did not have the ability to command the embassy, but what they didn't know was that Prince Henry did.
"Okay, then I'll go down and reply to the mayor." Zuo Xin said.
Then he respectfully withdrew.
On the other side, on the endless sea, a white cruise ship was slowly leaving the port.
The city of Athens is gradually getting smaller in the eyes of everyone.
In order to pursue Lu Zhiwen, Qin Fan rushed past wherever he went, without having time to visit and appreciate it.
Standing on the deck with his hands behind his hands, Qin Fan looked at the calm sea with a myriad of thoughts.
"Sir, why is this sea called the Aegean Sea?"
At some point, Phoenix Girl and Yuwen Xiangwan came behind Qin Fan.
Qin Fan smiled slightly, "There are several legends about the Aegean Sea."
"Sir, please tell me something." Phoenix Girl said.
Yuwen Xiangwan also seemed very interested.
"Okay, let me tell you a version that I like better." Qin Fan smiled.
"Legend has it that Qin was a famous harpist in Greece. The king sent an envoy because of his fame, but Qin refused the invitation."
"The king personally went to the place where Qin was the next day. The moment they looked at each other, they fell in love with each other."
"This is love at first sight that determines life." Phoenix Girl interjected with a smile.
Qin Fan nodded and continued: "The king rushed to the battlefield on his wedding night. The harp merged his thoughts into the sound of the harp, but the king died in battle."
"Qin puts on a blood-stained war robe and still sings for the king. The king's tears are all over her war robe."
"After Qin died, people poured their tears into the place where Qin slept, and they formed a blue and clear sea."
"Later, in order to commemorate Qin, people called this sea the Aegean Sea."
Phoenix Girl smiled and said: "This legend is so sad and beautiful, just like Meng Jiangnu crying down the Great Wall."
Qin Fan smiled and said, "Yes, the story is very poignant and expresses people's yearning for peace and a better life."
Then, he told another version of the legend.
Time passed by unconsciously, and we gradually got closer and closer to the small town of Fira.
