After a few glasses of wine, Du Fei and Chen Zhongyuan chatted all over the world, and they became more and more speculative.
Du Fei came back from time travel and has a unique perspective on problems. He is naturally different and has a wide range of knowledge. No matter what he says, he can hardly tell you everything.
It’s not an unreasonable statement, but if you think about it carefully, it actually makes some sense.
However, it was just casual chatting from beginning to end, and the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not involve work or current affairs.
After the meal was finished, Shen Jingya cleared the table, sent the two children back to the house, and made tea again.
Du Fei and Chen Zhongyuan drank a cup of tea. After most of the alcohol was gone, they started talking about business.
In fact, they both drank in moderation at night. They only drank half a bottle in total, which was only two or three ounces each.
Du Fei asked, "Third uncle, there is a deputy section chief in the security department of the steel rolling mill, named Jiang Donglai. Do you know this person?"
Chen Zhongyuan replied without thinking, "Well, there is such a person."
Du Fei asked, "What's going on with Jiang Donglai? His wife works in the same office as me, and yesterday he said he wanted to invite me to his house for dinner." He has some differences and can be remembered by Chen Zhongyuan. It seems that Jiang Donglai is also a person.
Chen Zhongyuan said with a faint smile, "You agreed?"
Du Fei said, "How can you not! He is the deputy section chief after all, a serious corporate cadre. I am just a little guy, why would you hire me when you have nothing to do? It's not just for your sake. I don't know what kind of god this person is. How can I go to the appointment rashly? Why don't I come here to ask you what's going on?"
Chen Zhongyuan nodded. This nephew was as safe as ever. He said calmly, "Since we are in an office, it is hard to refuse people's hospitality. Just go and don't have to worry. Jiang Donglai has also returned from the army. He has both qualifications and abilities. It's a pity." You are not a kind person and have bad luck. I heard that you want to be transferred to the police, but you have been kept in the steel rolling mill. Since he is looking for you, contact him, but remember not to make any promises."
Du Fei understood immediately, wasn't this the three principles of a scumbag: "Don't refuse, don't take the initiative, and don't take responsibility"!
"I understand." Du Fei nodded. , and then said, "By the way, third uncle, there is one more thing. The person next door to our house is named Li..."
Du Fei told him exactly what happened during the day when Aunt Li came to him and planned to sell the house.
Finally, he said, "Third uncle, I always feel that this matter is a bit strange. What kind of difficulties have you encountered? You don't want to have a good Beijing household registration, so you have to sell your house and go back to your hometown? But you still found me. Is it a coincidence or intentional?"
Chen Zhongyuan remained silent, picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and asked, "What are you going to do about this matter?"
Du Fei had already thought about it and said in a deep voice, "Third uncle, this is what I think. Regardless of whether there is a conspiracy behind this matter, we all have to find out. There are some things that are not afraid of 10,000, but are afraid of what may happen." ."
Chen Zhongyuan was noncommittal, "Then how do you want to check?"
Du Fei said with a smile, "There is a certain order of learning, and there is a specialization in the art. You are the professional, I don't care."
Chen Zhongyuan laughed and scolded, "You kid! If you open your mouth, I, the uncle, will have to break my legs?"
"The greater your ability, the greater your responsibility. Who made you the director of the department?" Du Fei took it for granted, making Chen Zhongyuan dumbfounded. "What is the director? Now you are still the deputy director, that's all!"
"
Du Fei's eyes lit up, he sat up straight and asked, "Third uncle, do you have any news?"
"Don't make wild guesses, you haven't even figured out your horoscope yet!" Chen Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "Besides, at my age... I am still a little impatient to be promoted to director of real power."
Du Fei said excitedly, "Third uncle, what if you perform a major meritorious service at this time!"
Chen Zhongyuan's face became serious and his eyes were sharp, "Xiao Fei, what do you mean by this?"
Under that intense gaze, Du Fei obviously felt pressure, but he was confident and still managed to get through it by saying, "Third uncle, about selling the house...
"
Chen Zhongyuan glared at him, "I want to go there myself! Do you really want me to go and ask in person?"
Du Fei understood immediately and immediately thought of Jiang Donglai.
Isn’t this free labor and ready-made tool man?
Du Fei didn't dare to accept the invitation before because he didn't know Chen Zhongyuan's attitude.
Now that Chen Zhongyuan has acquiesced, there is no pressure to summon Jiang Donglai.
"Okay, now that the small things are over, it's time to talk about the big things." Du Fei had enough time to get up and go to the door to get the bag hanging on the wall.
He had prepared it before riding his bicycle and put the briefcase he found in the wall in the cloth bag.
Shen Jingya thought it was for work, so she let him hang it on the wall as soon as she walked in.
Du Fei looked serious, took out the briefcase inside, placed it in front of Chen Zhongyuan and said, "Third uncle, please take a look at this first."
Chen Zhongyuan didn't know what was going on, but he could see that Du Fei was not teasing Mengzi.
He did not touch the briefcase directly, but first picked up the neatly folded newspaper lying next to it and read it.
"The BJ Daily in 1954?" Chen Zhongyuan opened each newspaper and looked at it, then looked at Du Fei, "This briefcase is wrapped in newspapers and has been stored somewhere for more than ten years. It was discovered by you recently.
of?"
Then he pinched the edge of the newspaper with his fingers. "The paper is dry and there is fine dust. It must not be buried underground. It may be placed on the beam... No, from the state of the newspaper being saved, it shouldn't be in an open space, it should be
A specially sealed secret room or secret compartment.”
Du Fei couldn't help being surprised!
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhongyuan hadn't even opened his briefcase yet, but he could analyze so much important information from just a few old newspapers.
But after thinking about it again, I felt relieved.
If you don't have any real skills, how can you achieve the position of deputy director of the Municipal Bureau's Public Security Department at such a young age? Du Fei provoked Brother Thumb, "Third uncle, you are so awesome. You got everything right! I accidentally found this briefcase in the wall of an abandoned courtyard."
Chen Zhongyuan did not respond. Before touching the briefcase, he took out a pair of white gloves and put them on.
Then he opened the buckle and took out the contents one by one.
First there were stacks of thick old banknotes, then the red leather notebook, more than 20 yuan found in the ocean, and finally the name stamp of 'Wang Wenming' was found.
Chen Zhongyuan carefully looked at the things in front of him, especially when he saw the code book and the name stamp, his brows were already twisted into a knot.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Chen Zhongyuan raised his head again, looked at Du Fei and said, "Xiao Fei, these things are not simple. What is going on? Please tell me carefully."
Du Fei replied, "Actually, this matter is related to Xiao Wu. It was the night when it snowed heavily. When I came home from get off work, I saw that it was dying, so I gave it some food. Unexpectedly, it came home with me."
Du Fei planned to blame this matter on Xiaowu.
"I was thinking about the many living things at home, and I wanted to save myself from being lonely, so I left it. Who knew that night, just after dinner, I heard a series of cats meowing outside, and Xiaowu immediately exploded.
He opened the door and rushed out."
"I didn't think much about it at the time, so I quickly grabbed a flashlight and followed him out," Du Fei recounted. "I saw Xiao Wu chasing a few wild cats around, but he didn't really fight them. He didn't even stretch out his claws. He just swatted back and forth. He looked like he was still fighting.
Quite interesting.”
"I was fine, so I just pretended to be hungry and followed Xiao Wu and the wild cats around until I arrived at the abandoned yard. There were a lot of wild cats gathering there at night. It was dark, so I didn't go in, so I just grabbed a flashlight.
Take a photo inside, just in time to see a reflection on the wall..."
Du Fei was 70% true and 30% false, and told the story of the discovery of the wall and the briefcase.
Chen Zhongyuan looked at him with sharp eyes.
Du Fei had a faint feeling that Chen Zhongyuan didn't believe his words at all...
