Zhang Chi sighed and said: "It's boring, you are just using these shady methods."
Rui Fu stretched out her hand towards him and hooked her fingers.
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't act stupid and give me the money back."
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "Are all you foreigners so stingy?"
Rui Fu said: "Do you think the broken piano you play is worth so much? I was afraid that you would be left out, so I bought you a few fans to support you."
The truth came so suddenly and so cruelly. Zhang Daxian's self-esteem, which had just warmed up a little, was shattered to pieces. He took out a handful of U.S. dollars and slammed it into Rui Fu's palm, saying with no grace at all: "It's boring, it's boring!
"
The results of the test that Bai Xiaomi helped with came out, confirming Zhang Chi's suspicion. There were many pharmaceutical ingredients in the residue of the wine glass. Bai Xiaomi sent the electronic version of the analysis report to Zhang Chi. After reading it, Zhang Chi felt heavier.
Lin Daiyu actually put medicine in their wine. According to the component analysis, it should be ** elixir. Zhang Chi was a little surprised. When did Lin Daiyu know how to refine ** elixir?
He had refined a few ** pills a while ago, but he had never used them. Could it be that someone had secretly taken them away?
Zhang Chi rushed back to the hut, checked his inventory, and found that there were quite a few pills. Zhang Chi was a little worried, so he took out the golden pills one by one and smelled them one by one. He didn't know if he didn't smell them. He was shocked when he smelled them.
Half of the bottle of golden elixir was dropped.
Zhang Chi is so depressed. This time he really shot himself in the foot. His alchemy was originally meant to deal with others, but it was used to plot against him. Although he had been wary of Lin Daiyu in Beichen, he was still cautious after all.
She had been tricked once, if it was just to trick him, but this time she was tricked together with Qi Bing and Xiao Jiujiu, Zhang Chi was really annoyed.
After discovering that the golden elixir had been swapped, Zhang Chi wished he could go to Lin Daiyu to settle the score now, but after thinking about it, he still suppressed his inner impulse. The matter was now at this point, even if he went to her to accuse her, it would not change anything, and after all, there was an old relationship between them.
Now, it is impossible to retaliate against Lin Daiyu. The best way is to treat her coldly and stay away from her in the future.
Lying on the small bed, trying to recall the scene that night, but having no memory at all, Zhang Chi found a video of himself playing the erhu and sent a short clip to Qi Bing. Although it was vulgar, it should have some effect.
To say that she really didn't suffer a loss in this matter, even if she did it to Xiao Jiujiu in a daze, the one who suffered the biggest loss was Xiao Jiujiu. However, judging from Xiao Jiujiu's current reaction, she didn't seem to mind too much. Maybe
I have long been prepared to devote myself to myself, but I don't feel it. I really want to ask her face to face.
When Zhang Chi was thinking wildly, Chu Jianghe called him and asked him to go to Qin Zixu's R&D center to have a look, saying that he remembered something.
Zhang Chi has always suspected that Chu Jianghe has recovered his memory. Since he took the initiative to invite him, there is no reason to miss this opportunity.
Qin Zixu's R&D center is actually the laboratory of Academician Han Dachuan in the past. The school allocated it to him. New World Group invested heavily in its renovation, and the level of software and hardware has been raised to a higher level. Zhang Chi came to Qin Zixu's laboratory and saw that
The place where the bronze statue of Han Dachuan was originally erected has been replaced by a piece of Lingbi stone.
Zhang Chi stood in front of the stone and looked at it for a while, and found that the stone looked like the head of an old longevity star, but from another angle, it looked like an eagle.
Qin Zixu, wearing a white coat, appeared next to him and admired the stone like him: "What do you think this stone looks like?"
Zhang Chi said: "Like a human head."
Qin Zixu smiled and said: "I look like an eagle. I see different things from different angles."
"Dr. Qin's words are always full of philosophy." Zhang Chi complimented falsely.
Qin Zixu said: "Go in, they are waiting for you in Block B."
Zhang Chi noticed that Qin Zixu was talking about them. It seemed that Chu Jianghe did not come here by himself.
Zhang Chi came to Building B, which Qin Zixu mentioned, which is usually used to receive guests and hold academic seminars.
When he came to the reception room, he saw Chu Canghai and Chu Jianghe and his son chatting inside. Only then did Zhang Chi realize that what Qin Zixu said was the two men. Chu Jianghe actually brought his father with him when he asked him to meet. What happened?
It must be a bit grand, but I don't know if Chu Canghai happens to be here or if he comes here specifically to meet him.
Chu Jianghe stood up to greet Chu Canghai, but Chu Canghai sat still. Zhang Chi called out Mr. Chu, and it stands to reason that he should also call Chu Canghai uncle. Chu Canghai was Mr. Qin's apprentice in the past, and he was also his uncle in terms of inheritance.
Chu Canghai smiled and said: "Zhang Chi is here, please sit down quickly. Jiang He, go make tea."
Chu Jianghe nodded and went to Chahai to prepare.
Zhang Chi could see that this was probably a deliberate attempt to create an opportunity for him to talk to Chu Canghai. It seemed that it was Chu Canghai who was looking for him today.
Chu Canghai said: "Zhang Chi, how is your health?"
Zhang Chi said: "Very good."
Chu Canghai said: "Your physique is better than Jiang He's. He has been recuperating since he came back, and he has just recovered now."
Zhang Chi said: "Did he remember what happened?"
Chu Canghai said: "I remembered something, but I'm not sure if it really happened. Did you recall something?"
Zhang Chi shook his head: "I can't remember anything. It is said that our memory has been artificially erased."
Chu Canghai can be said to be the biggest financial backer of the Mysterious Bureau, and his relationship with the Mysterious Bureau is inextricably linked. He should know the inside story quite well.
Chu Canghai said: "It may be the shock effect."
"Shocking effect?"
Chu Canghai nodded: "When a person encounters a sudden change in the environment, his body will change, including the central nervous system, because such changes in the central nervous system will produce some stress reactions, even memory loss, hallucinations, etc.
This phenomenon is collectively referred to as the shock effect."
Zhang Chi looked at Chu Canghai's serious nonsense and secretly wanted to laugh in his heart. The shock effect of bullshit is obviously the Bureau of Secrets trying to erase our memories, but it just failed. Chu Canghai's appearance here today is no accident. It feels like he is
I want to test it myself.
Chu Canghai said: "If you need it, I can give you some help in recovering your memory."
Zhang Chi shook his head and refused decisively: "Forget it, it may not be a good thing to think about. During this time, I thought about it. In fact, it doesn't matter what I have experienced. The most important thing is to be alive."
Chu Canghai praised: "You deal with problems much more clearly than Jiang He. Jiang He is a little persistent and always wants to figure out what's going on."
Chu Jianghe boiled water and invited them to come over and drink tea.
Chu Canghai still drinks pure water.
Zhang Chi took a sip of Qi Hong and said, "Mr. Chu, why don't you drink such good tea?"
Chu Canghai said: "I used to like to drink tea, but then I got a strange illness and I can't touch cigarettes, wine, or tea, so now I can only smell the fragrance of tea and feast my eyes on it. My life is going well."
It’s very dull.”
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "Being ordinary is the truth. Mr. Chu understands the true meaning of life better than us."
Chu Canghai said to Chu Jianghe: "Jianghe, Zhangchi is younger than you, but he can speak better than you."
Chu Jianghe smiled and said: "He has always been well-rounded in everything he does."
Zhang Chi said: "What you said is not a compliment."
Chu Jianghe said: "Zhang Chi, I invited you here because I have something to ask you."
Zhang Chi nodded and motioned for him to say.
Chu Jianghe took out his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and showed Zhang Chi some of the photos. The photos above showed Zhang Chi, Lin Daiyu, and Han Nianci in the same frame.
Zhang Chi secretly sighed that now he had no personal freedom at all and was being followed everywhere, with a displeased look on his face: "Are you looking for someone to follow me?"
Chu Jianghe glanced at his father. Chu Canghai said nothing and had no intention of leaving. He continued to drink his water, as if the matter in front of him had nothing to do with him.
Chu Jianghe said: "To be precise, I'm not following you, I'm following Han Nianci. You just happened to walk into the picture."
This explanation made sense. Zhang Chi put down the tea cup and said, "Why are you following her?"
Chu Jianghe said: "Han Nianci is currently suing New World Group for infringement. The impact of this incident is very bad. We must find out her purpose, so we hired a private detective to follow her to find out if there was anyone behind her.
"
Zhang Chi looked at Chu Canghai and said, "Mr. Chu, wouldn't you suspect that I was instigating her to file a lawsuit with you?"
Chu Canghai smiled and said: "You have no grudges against me, and you and Jiang He are still good friends. How could you do such a thing? In fact, I asked Jiang He to invite you here today, just to explain this matter
clear."
Zhang Chi said: "Mr. Chu, there is no need to explain to me, right?" He thought to himself, the explanation you gave me is false, and asking me for an explanation is the truth.
"It's necessary. There are many things you only know one thing but not the other."
At this time, Chu Canghai's assistant came in and informed him to go to a meeting. Chu Canghai smiled and said: "It's not a big deal. I'm going to the meeting. You two can chat."
Zhang Chi stood up and saw each other off. After Chu Canghai left, the two sat down. Chu Jianghe refilled the cup of tea for him: "I think it's a coincidence. You're not going to form a rope with Han Nianci to deal with the New World Group, are you?"
Zhang Chi did not answer his question, but asked: "Your father said that we are good friends, when did it happen?" In other words, under the specific environment of Netherworld Ruins, he and Chu Jianghe could barely be called friends.
Chu Jianghe said meaningfully: "You don't remember some things, but I remember them."
Zhang Chi secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong. It would not be a good thing if this guy remembered everything. He smiled and said: "What have you remembered? Tell me. Maybe it can help me recall it."
Chu Jianghe said: "It may not be a good thing for you. By the way, don't change the subject. How did you meet the two of them together?"
Zhang Chi found that Chu Jianghe was very interested in the content of their conversation, and there was no need for him to hide this matter. Originally, the two of them came to him to set up a bridge and sit down to talk, and he was just doing it as a favor.
Chu Jianghe sighed and said, "It seems they want to establish an offensive and defensive alliance."
Zhang Chi said: "I don't know what they are doing, and I'm not interested either."
Chu Jianghe said: "By the way, I heard that Cao Chengguang was caught by you?"
Zhang Chi shook his head: "Where did you get the news? He's quite capable. It's not that easy to catch him."
Chu Jianghe said: "He is classified as an S-level dangerous person." The S-level is derived from the classification of the danger of superpowers by the Bureau of Secrets, and it is already the highest level.
Zhang Chi asked: "What was the result of the interrogation?" Cao Chengguang is now the suspect in the murder of Cao Mingmin.
Chu Jianghe said: "He has a very tough mouth and denies everything he has done." Because Zhang Chi was not from the Bureau of Secrets after all, Chu Jianghe did not continue.
Zhang Chi said deliberately: "I just heard from your dad that your memory has recovered a bit, why don't you tell me more about it."
Chu Jianghe smiled and said: "I don't remember much. It seems that we were in prison together, and it seems that we became good friends, but most of my memories are vague and I can't remember clearly."
Zhang Chi guessed that Chu Jianghe had probably recovered most of his memories, and secretly cried out: "But I don't remember anything, Jiang He, how did we escape?"
Chu Jianghe said: "I vaguely remember that someone saved us."
"who?"
"He Donglai!"
It was snowing outside when Zhang Chi left, and his mood was heavier than when he came here. He Donglai was exposed. Since Chu Jianghe remembered He Donglai, the secret of Netherworld Ruins should not be kept. Not only the ones facing the crisis
He Donglai, Qin Luzhu and even the entire Qin family.
The real purpose of Chu Canghai and his son's meeting with him today was to test. They wanted to know if they still remembered what happened in Netherworld Ruins, and how much they remembered. Zhang Chi came to the Lingbi Stone and saw Qin Zixu still standing there. Zhang Chi
Somewhat curious, why did he come back? Is this stone so beautiful?
Qin Zixu smiled at him and said, "Leaving?"
Zhang Chi nodded: "It's snowing."
Qin Zixu said: "The weather in Netherworld Ruins must be very cold, right?"
Zhang Chi was startled and his expression was very confused. Is Qin Zixu trying to find out? Did Chu Jianghe tell him everything that happened? Zhang Chi quickly denied this possibility. Netherworld Ruins is a secret to outsiders, but to outsiders,
The Qin family is by no means a secret. Qin Zixu is actually Qin Junzhi, the third eldest son of the Qin family, a person who is believed to have died at an early age by the outside world. If not for Huang Chunli's ability to recreate scenes, only Chu Wenxi would know this secret.
Zhang Chi said: "The coldest place I have ever been to in my life is the capital."
"Oh?" Qin Zixu said softly with a smile on his lips: "They say this is a Lingbi stone, but in fact this stone was transported from Zhongzhou Ruins."
"Do you also know about Zhongzhou Market?"
"certainly!"
"Dr. Qin, I remember that you and Lin Chaolong had a very good relationship back then. Why did you change your family and choose the new world?"
Qin Zixu said: "Good birds choose trees to live in. Chu Canghai can provide better conditions. Many things you think are complicated are actually very simple."
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "I've been taught a lesson!"
