Early the next morning, He Xiaopang came to Mu Fan's room.
Xia Yuqing was still sleeping soundly in bed.
She twirled her thumbs and muttered something inaudible in her sleep.
At this moment, the soft morning light outside the window shines on Xia Yuqing's body through the glass. Her hair on her forehead is a little messy, and her delicate and pretty face has a hint of endearing laziness.
He Xiaopang was stunned and glanced at Mu Fan with a wicked smile:
"Brother Fan, you are so naughty, look at how tired Sister Yuqing is!"
Mu Fan's face darkened when he heard this: "I'm so tired of you sister!"
As he spoke, he pushed Xia Yuqing's shoulder:
"Sister, it's time to get up."
Xia Yuqing blinked her sleepy eyes, stretched out, and muttered dissatisfiedly:
"Xiao Fanfan, if you wake me up so early, have you forgotten what time you worked up to last night?"
He Xiaopang immediately put on an "I understand" smile:
"Well, I've been working on it till very late!"
Mu Fan coughed a few times in embarrassment: "Tossing... tossing a weird species!"
"Okay, let her sleep a little longer, let's go to the Moon Palace!"
He Xiaopang followed Mu Fan out of the room with a smile.
"That's right, Brother Fan!"
He Xiaopang asked: "How are the newspapers and periodicals organized? Have you found any clues?"
"Of course, but there is no strong proof."
Mu Fan said thoughtfully: "Perhaps Huang Tianba will give us this confirmation."
After a leisurely breakfast, Mu Fan and He Xiaopang drove a carriage to the Moon Palace.
Their timing was very precise. At this moment, Huang Tianba had already finished breakfast under the service of the maid.
He Xiaopang raised his eyebrows at Mu Fan, and the two took the initiative to sit on the red fox leather sofa by the window, waiting for Huang Tianba's "lucky visit".
"Gentlemen, I've been waiting for a long time."
Huang Tianba walked towards here with bare feet, then sat on the sofa with a smile.
"Captain Huang," Mu Fan said straight to the point, "Is the list of Yongle District steel manufacturing tycoons ready?"
"certainly."
Huang Tianba maintained his signature smile, took out a stack of information from the drawer under the coffee table, and placed it on the coffee table.
"For a long time, the steel industry in Yongle District has been monopolized by these three families."
Mu Fan took the list and checked the names:
Huang Qi;
Jim Carrey;
Wang Duoduo.
"Steel industry..." He Xiaopang frowned in confusion, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"So, you already have an idea?" Huang Tianba asked with a smile.
"Yes," Mu Fan nodded, "but before explaining, I must first inquire about something from Captain Huang."
Huang Tianba blinked his blue eyes.
Mu Fan asked directly: "How is the situation at the border during this period?"
Huang Tianba frowned when he heard this:
"It's strange to say that news came from Tieshan yesterday that the army of the Fallen was not moving as fast as expected, and they didn't seem to have much interest in invading Yongle District. Instead, they were just a few on the border.
Wandering in villages and towns.”
A smile appeared on the corner of Mu Fan's mouth: "Haha, this is obvious!"
He Xiaopang couldn't restrain his curiosity: "Brother Fan, what do you mean?"
Mu Fan smiled calmly and explained:
"You should have heard of a famous saying in the financial industry, which is called 'creating demand'!"
"In the apocalypse, steel is a strategic resource!"
"So, Yanhuang promulgated the "Steel Production Restriction Decree", and the steel industry has been restricted."
"But if one day, steel can save the lives of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of residents, and can maintain the authority of the authorities, then the strict "Steel Production Limitation Act" will become a pale piece of waste paper!
"
Mu Fan continued:
"Tieshan said that the only way to stop the army of the Fallen in a short period of time is to build a steel protective fence!"
"And when we were passing through the border land, a steady stream of steel was being transported from various places to the border land!"
Hearing this, He Xiaopang suddenly realized:
"I see!"
"Vampires are using the Fallen army to create market demand for steel!"
Mu Fan nodded:
"The purpose of the fallen, or the purpose of the vampires, is not to invade, but to consume, consume steel, stimulate the steel market, and thereby obtain huge profits!"
Huang Tianba's eyes flashed with a dazzling blue:
"Very good! Mr. Detective, it seems we have found the wrong person!"
Mu Fan said calmly: "Captain Huang deserves the award."
He Xiaopang immediately slapped his thigh: "In this way, the suspects will be locked on these three steel industry tycoons!"
"When shall we do it?"
"Not urgent."
Mu Fan signaled He Xiaopang not to be impulsive: "This case won't be that simple!"
"With a vampire's IQ, he cannot be any of these three people, otherwise he would be exposed too easily."
He Xiaopang nodded:
"You mean, these three people are just puppets, and the vampires are still hiding behind the scenes? That makes sense."
Mu Fan said calmly:
"Captain Huang, please write a letter asking Tieshan and the others to come back. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle!"
"You are right, Mr. Mu Fan."
A trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed in Huang Tianba's eyes, but he still maintained a charming smile on his face.
Mu Fan: "By the way, is there any news about the hospital?"
Huang Tianba nodded when he heard this:
"Something interesting!"
"I guess there will be news this afternoon!"
"but."
Huang Tianba stared at Mu Fan deeply: "Since we have found the traces of the culprit, why do we still need to track down the murderer?"
Mu Fan's eyes flashed: "Personal grudge!"
To touch Xia Yuqing is to seek death!
"Captain Huang, let's take our leave now!"
After walking out of the Moon Palace, He Xiaopang asked: "Brother Fan, what are we doing now?"
Mu Fan: "Go back to the hotel and catch up on your sleep!"
He Xiaopang heard this and muttered: "It seems that we really worked on it very late last night!"
As soon as Mu Fan walked into the dark room, a wave of sleepiness came to his mind. He lay on the bed with all his clothes on, and fell asleep within ten seconds.
In the dim dream, Mu Fan vaguely felt that a pair of eyes were always staring at him, like slippery leeches, lingering.
Mrs. Gill reported that her Persian cat was missing again.
These cats are all purebred Persian cats, with shiny coats, graceful and elegant appearance, and full of the temperament of aristocratic women.
And under Mrs. Gill's extreme pampering, they were all fed until they were white and fat, like moving meat buns.
While describing how adorable these cats were, Mrs. Gill licked her lips and inadvertently stuck out her tongue to lick her lips, as if she was reminiscing about something.
At night, Mu Fan sneaked into Mrs. Gill's apartment.
