Volume 5: The Age of Storms Chapter 0609 In Action
Will something bad happen if a man and a woman are alone in the same room?
Nan Yi’s answer was no, as long as no one deliberately pushed it, it would be difficult to create any ambiguity.
One sleeps on a bed and the other sleeps on a sofa. Although there is no wall between them, there is a set of cabinets. They are about six or seven meters apart, so they can't even smell each other if they fart, let alone the sound of a throbbing heartbeat.
If you plan to kill each other in the middle of the night, you should be able to hear each other's breathing.
Nan Yi goes to bed at normal times and wakes up at normal times. If there is anything abnormal, it is that he does not enter into deep sleep.
Nan Yi was not sure whether Luo Qianqian got up at the normal time. When he went out for exercise, she was not yet awake. When he came back after eating breakfast outside, she was already awake.
Two nights passed in a flash, and soon it was the third day.
In the room.
Luo Qianqian made a phone call and said to Nan Yi: "The Japanese are now in the coffee shop of Jingcheng Hotel."
"Comrade Luo, did you forget something?"
"What?"
"You haven't shown me the picture of the devil yet. Don't tell me your task force doesn't have a picture of him."
During these two days, Nan Yi and Luo Qianqian only discussed the case on the first day. At other times, Nan Yi did not ask proactively, and Luo Qianqian did not say much to him.
"for you."
Luo Qianqian took out a photo from her military bag and handed it to Nan Yi.
Nan Yi took the photo and took a look at it.
The photo was obviously taken secretly, and the focus is not on the person, but the person's appearance can still be seen clearly.
Judging from the background, it should be the entrance of the Beijing Hotel. The Japanese soldier in the photo is looking at his watch with his hand raised. His hair is a little yellow and has some natural curls. His skin is fair, his nose is high, his facial features are distinct, and he looks more three-dimensional. One of his ancestors must have had mixed blood. He may be a descendant of the Huns or Turks, and he has experienced atavism.
He looks pretty good, and considering the background reference, his height should be around 177 cm, which can be considered a low-profile version of a tall, rich and handsome man.
"The watch on the devil's hand is a Rolex Sub, a model specially made by Rolex and sold by Cartier's Fifth Avenue store in New York. It is not considered too luxurious abroad, but it would cost tens of thousands of yuan if converted into RMB according to the black market price." Nan Yi said after looking at the photo.
"specially?"
"Yes, specifically, it's only sold in that store, not anywhere else."
Luo Qianqian: "You mean, the only way to buy this watch is to go to New York?"
"That's not necessarily the case. It's possible that someone else bought it for him or gave it to him as a gift. But the fact that he can wear such an expensive watch shows that this guy is doing well."
"You don't even need to tell me. We know that the Yongle Encyclopedia was sold for several million Hong Kong dollars. Who knows how much they sold for? This devil is an important figure in Lou Xiaoyuan's gang. He must have received a lot of money. It's not uncommon for him to wear a watch worth tens of thousands of dollars."
Nan Yi curled his lips and glanced at the Shanghai Hai watch on his left wrist. It was a couple's watch that Liu Zhen bought last year. It cost 220 yuan a pair, which was already very luxurious.
There are not many brands in the mainland that can surpass it in terms of reputation and price, including Mustang, Soviet Pilot, Kirov, Tiankeno, Magic Pattern, West Malaysia Navy Star, Roma and a few other imported/pure export brands.
"It's not surprising. When are we going there?"
"You can go there now. The task force has already set up arrangements. You can rest assured that our task force will guarantee your safety." Luo Qianqian said confidently.
"Okay, I'll wait for you on the first floor."
If Luo Qianqian wants to act with Nan Yi, she naturally needs a cover identity. Her identity is Nan Yi’s lover kept in Xiangkeng, using the alias Luo Jialing.
Nan Yi waited for a while on the first floor, and Luo Qianqian, dressed in a new look, came down from upstairs.
She wore a black tight vest on her upper body and a cross pendant around her neck, which was very popular in Xiangkeng in the past two years. She wore a floral skirt on her lower body, which looked very fashionable and trendy, as if she had just returned from Xiangkeng.
"call out!"
Nan Yi whistled and said, "It looks good."
Luo Qianqian blushed slightly, "It's a bit awkward to wear."
"Be more natural. Be careful not to be discovered. There is one thing I forgot to tell you. If the Japanese ask, you should say that you live near Chai Wan Park. In the 1940s, the government recruited a group of police officers from Shandong Province. Their dormitory is over there. There are quite a lot of people, and they all speak Jiaoliao Mandarin.
In the 1950s, there were many more people from the mainland living nearby. The owners of the shops and restaurants nearby spoke fluent Mandarin, so you didn’t need to speak Cantonese to communicate with them. This also explains why you can still live in Hong Kong even though your Cantonese is so poor. ”
In two days, even with intensive study, Luo Qianqian could not learn a few words of Cantonese. Her concealed identity was a little weak and could be easily exposed. This was Nan Yi's way of making up for it.
"I haven't been to Xiangkeng for long, so it's normal that my Cantonese is poor." Luo Qianqian said.
"It's normal not to be able to speak, but it's abnormal if you can't understand some daily expressions. The time is too short, and what I taught you is not comprehensive. I'm afraid that the devil is too cunning and will test you with words.
So, you need to change your character a little bit. Not only have you only been in Xiangkeng for a few days, but you also have to be a canary, usually staying at home watching TV and rarely going out. "
"Okay, let's do as you say." Luo Qianqian agreed.
Nan Yi and the other man set out after making their plan. After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the Capital Hotel. As they walked towards the gate, two people walked out.
"Nan Yi."
When Nan Yi saw that it was Gao Gang, he greeted him, "What a coincidence. Are you here to do business?"
"I came with my comrade to find someone." Gao Gang pointed at the middle-aged man next to him and said, "This is my comrade Ren Youwei, the vice president of Shennan Electronics under Shenyou Group. We had a very good relationship when we were in the army. Youwei, this is Nan Yinan, the president of Yaqing Company."
"Hello, Mr. Ren, I'm Nan Yi from Yaqing Company." Nan Yi smiled and extended his right hand to Ren Youwei.
"Hello, President Nan."
After shaking hands with Ren Youwei in a friendly manner, Nan Yi said to Gao Gang, "I came here for something today, so I won't talk to you much. Mr. Ren, see you next time."
"We happen to be busy too. We can have dinner together in a couple of days when we are free," said Gao Gang.
"good."
Nan Yi nodded, and he and Luo Qianqian walked into the hotel.
"Gao Gang, that Nan Yi who was just mentioned is now the general manager at such a young age?" Ren Youwei asked after turning his head away from Nan Yi and the other person and taking a few steps out.
"Old Ren, although Nan Yi is young, he has his own way of doing things and has many connections. Go ahead and do your thing tomorrow. I'll call him the day after tomorrow and we can have a meal together. There's no harm in getting to know each other."
"Lao Gao, why do I feel like you've changed? When you were in the army, you were very dull."
"I have been working in the local area for many years. How can I not change?" Gao Gang said with emotion: "Old Ren, you have only been transferred for less than two years. Before, you were doing technical work in Shenzhen Electronics and did not need to contact outsiders. Now you have been transferred to management and business. Slowly you understand that you have to change."
"I really want to stay in the army until retirement. The army is simple." Ren Youwei sighed and said, "Unfortunately, it's impossible. The serial number has been revoked."
"Old Ren, look forward."
…
Nan Yi and Luo Qianqian walked into the coffee shop and found a seat to sit down.
"What to drink?"
"coffee."
"A cup of coffee, a cup of Coke, and a glass of ice water." Nan Yi handed the menu back to the waiter. After the waiter left, Nan Yi said to Luo Qianqian, "We are now in the right state. Are the drinks billed to your task force?"
"You're still short of this little money?" Luo Qianqian said, then lowered her voice and said, "Know the situation, if you're..."
"Don't worry, he can't hear you. He's busy flirting with a foreign woman. Although I've never been a police officer, I've watched a lot of police and gangster movies. You don't have to worry about me. I won't let you down."
Judging from Luo Qianqian’s performance on the train last time, she should be often involved in similar special missions and be able to play other characters with different personalities pretty well. Even if she changes her career to become an actor, she won’t do too badly.
So her worry was because of Nan Yi, not because of herself.
"I really should have switched seats with you just now. I couldn't observe the Japanese." Luo Qianqian said with a little regret.
"Don't be too concerned and pay attention to the identity of your lover." Nan Yi said, glancing at the devils twice, then looking away, "The foreign woman should be from China."
"How did you know that?" Luo Qianqian asked.
"Temperament is determined by the environment and environment. People who grow up in different countries have different temperaments."
Luo Qianqian asked with great interest: "Is there any technique to distinguish them?"
"Yes, and it's not difficult to learn, but the learning threshold is a bit high. You have to have a lot of contact with people from different countries and know their different thinking patterns and behavioral characteristics." Nan Yi said lightly.
Luo Qianqian: "Forget it, I don't have any chance to go abroad."
"It's not easy to go abroad. You can transfer to the Interpol Central Bureau. You can always get the opportunity to go abroad to handle cases."
"You are well-informed. This department was established not long ago."
Nan Yi did not answer Luo Qianqian's words, but looked at the Japanese again. This time, he paid attention to the mouth shape of the foreign woman when she spoke. Although he could not read what the foreign woman was saying, he could tell that she was speaking Chinese.
"Do you know how long this foreign woman has stayed in Beijing?" Nan Yi asked after watching for a while.
Luo Qianqian said: "I don't know. She has not entered the sight of our task force. Today should be the first time the devils have contacted her."
"This foreign woman is at least 45 years old. The foreign women the devils have come into contact with before are all older women?"
Seeing a hint of ambiguity in the foreign woman's smile, Nan Yi didn't think the two were doing any underground deal, but rather seemed to be testing each other and discussing the feasibility of a friendly match.
Luo Qianqian: "There are people of all ages."
"All female?"
"The ones our task force knows about are all female."
"I have learned about the antique market in Western countries because of my work. The prices of most domestic antiques there are not high. The prices are not as high as those of exported modern crafts. Even the prices of relatively rare national treasure-level antiques are not too high.
Have you got the direction of your investigation wrong? I think you should not focus on white people, but on Japanese and overseas Chinese. They are the ones who truly recognize domestic antiques, and only by selling to them can you get a good price for the things.
I think this devil is contacting these old women not to make a deal, but to find a way out. "
"Find a way out, what do you mean?"
"Get yourself abroad. Marrying a foreigner is the easiest way to become a citizen. Haha, if you don't hurry up, this devil might become a foreigner."
Beep beep beep. Beep beep beep.
Before Nan Yi could finish his words, the pager in his pocket rang.
Taking out a pager, Nan Yi pressed a button on the pager and looked at the number on the display.
"You're quite busy. You just got the pager yesterday, and someone called you today." Luo Qianqian said.
Yesterday, someone from the Wireless Communications Bureau came to Nan Yi and sent him a pager. The 126 paging station has already started testing, and Nan Yi was fortunate to become one of the test users. It will only be put into actual operation to the public after three phases of testing, which is estimated to be after October.
"It's all work. There was a call from the company. I'll go answer one." Nan Yi said, then stood up and walked towards the hotel's front desk.
"Hello, Chief Yang, what's going on?"
"The bus company just called and asked you to come over to discuss the bus stop issue." Yang Kaiyan said on the other end of the phone.
"Please go for me. I'm not very convenient these two days."
The gift of two SR666 connecting buses made it easy for Nanyi to open the door to public transportation. With the help of the Haidian District Government, Nanyi had already negotiated the issue of increasing the number of buses and shuttle buses.
In addition, we have also agreed to change the arrival reminder on buses. In the future, on buses in Beijing, the conductor will remind passengers before they arrive at the station: "Asia Mall reminds you, the next stop is ×× station."
The issue of painting advertisements on buses and changing bus stop signs has not been settled yet. This issue is a bit complicated. After all, it involves the city appearance and the image of the capital. There are a series of relevant departments to visit. If Nan Yi does not lobby privately, this matter will most likely fail.
"Wouldn't that be a bad idea? You were the one who was in charge of the negotiations, and now it's my turn. Will the bus company think that our Yaqing Company doesn't take me seriously enough?"
"There will probably be some impact, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Suppress your arrogance and be polite. I get along well with Manager Kong Fengtai, and he won't make things too difficult for you." Nan Yi comforted.
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
"Well, don't page me today. I'll call your room tonight."
"OK."
After answering the call, on the way back to his seat, Nan Yi glanced at the Japanese again.
You know what, the Japanese are pretty good at picking up girls. At this moment, that foreign guy has become very sexy. It looks like there's a chance. Maybe the Friendship Cup match can start tonight. I just don't know if there will be a live broadcast.
"When are you planning to go over and say hello?" Luo Qianqian asked as soon as Nan Yi sat down.
"Wait a little longer, let our Japanese comrades finish picking up girls first."
