Chapter 166 Kunta(1/2)
The reconstruction work of the British Museum did not end until the 1980s. After that, people focused on Edward's treasure map, and the museum also offered a large reward for the treasure map. During a blood moon invitation, a mysterious guest presented the treasure map to
Copies of the map were given to four guests. The guests were asked not to show the treasure map to a second person. The mysterious guest promised that after finding the treasure, he would return it to its original owner.
At that time, John asked, was it the British Museum that returned the items to their original owners? Or was it the original owner? Britain has hundreds of years of colonial history. The cultural relics in the British Museum come from various countries and were obtained through different means, including plundering, purchasing, deception, and archeology.
The other three guests supported John's question, and the mysterious guest took back the treasure map. Later, John locked himself in the room and hand-drawn a treasure map. Compared with the treasure map of the mysterious guest's professional engineering,
John's treasure map looked very cartoonish. The other three guests added drawings on the cartoon treasure map hand-drawn by John using their own memories, and finally used a photocopier to each take away a copy of the cartoon treasure map.
Thresh said: "I have a treasure map in my hand."
Liang Xi asked: "Is it a cartoon?"
Thresh replied: "It's a replica of the treasure map hand-drawn by John."
Liang Xidao: "John has spent so many years not cracking it, I..."
Thresh said: "Yes, you are stupid, how can you possibly crack it."
Liang Xi was unhappy: "Don't use aggressive tactics. I won't do this."
Thresh said: "Don't you want to challenge John? Or fulfill John's legacy? Besides, you are British. If you are not interested, I will sell this treasure map online. It will be difficult to say then.
Who is looking for the treasure? But I believe that the person who finds the treasure cannot donate the treasure for free."
Liang Xi asked, "What do you want?" He kept chirping.
Thresh said: "The second Internet Celebrity Festival is about to begin, and the preparations are almost done. I don't know the content of the game, but I will help you find a backdoor. All you have to do is win all the competitions."
Liang Xi: "Crazy."
Thresh said: "I want to say hello to you now. I hope you will be mentally prepared when the time comes."
Liang Xidao: "The police are well prepared and will not allow the Black Internet Celebrity Festival project to be broadcast live." The Internet Celebrity Festival can be broadcast live, but the crimes, kidnappings, and threats that come with the Internet Celebrity Festival will not be broadcast live.
Thresh said: "Haha! Maybe, maybe not. Maybe it needs to be broadcast live, maybe not. By the way, is your little wife in the hospital?"
Liang Xi asked back: "What did you do?"
Thresh said: "I guarantee Fiona has nothing to do with us, but I know who did it."
Liang Xi asked: "Oh?"
Thresh said: "The condition is that you completely delete my recording."
Liang Xi didn't understand: "What recording?"
Thresh said: "A recording asking me to admit that I am a bad person."
Liang Xi was dissatisfied: "Thrust, I don't know if you are a bastard or not. I only know that I am a gentleman, a gentleman. How could I keep such a recording? Does such a recording have any other meaning besides mocking you? No.
Replace your own vices with the virtues of others. Some people are born with virtues, do you understand?"
Liang Xi talked about this to death. Thresh really didn't dare to say that he knew that Liang Xi had a recording. As for Liang Xi opening his eyes and telling lies, Thresh was not surprised at all. Do you really think that Liang Xi is an innocent boy? This young bird is bad
It's great to get up, and there's no psychological burden at all when you do bad things.
Thresh said: "Okay, my bargaining chip is the treasure map and the identity of the real culprit who attacked Fiona."
Liang Xi asked: "What do you need me to do?"
Thresh said: "The second Internet Celebrity Festival was planned by someone else, but because there was a car accident and many people were injured, there was no one to implement the plan. I was the one who took over the mess. You know, the Internet Celebrity Festival wants to kill people, I just execute it
The perpetrator is not the planner. I don’t want to kill people, but I have to kill people.”
Liang Xi understood: "You need me to prevent others from being killed?"
Thresh replied: "That's right, but I can only invite you into the game. As an executor, I can't help you. You know, if I choose between my death and the death of others, I will choose the latter. Even if I don't want to kill anyone anymore.
, I don’t want to be killed either. Do you understand?”
Liang Xidao: "You need me to help you continue your record of not killing people."
Thresh: "What matters is saving those who might be killed."
Liang Xidao: "Then you have to give money. Countless people die every day in the world, and countless people need to be saved. If you don't give money, why should I save them instead of saving others?"
Thresh no longer wanted to be angry: "How much?"
Liang Xidao: "Accept according to the terms, one million per life."
Thresh: "Two hundred pounds."
Liang Xidao: "Human life is priceless."
Thresh said: "In this way, if you are alive, you will be given ten thousand pounds, and if you are dead, you will be deducted ten thousand pounds."
For this kind of carefully considered transaction, Liang Xiren will admit his debt, even if he loses his underpants. Because Liang Xi does not admit his debt, the debt will come to his door. Speaking of unscrupulous means, Liang Xiren suffers a lot in the open. Thresh
If Thresh is unreasonable, Liang Xi will not waste words with him.
Thresh waited for a moment: "As a detective, you wouldn't dare to agree to this condition, right?"
Liang Xi asked: "How about one piece?" A hundred people died for only one hundred pounds, so he could still afford it.
Thresh: "Ten thousand, only ten thousand can inspire your fighting spirit."
Liang Xi thought for a long time: "Okay, I agree."
Thresh: "There will be news, wait patiently, goodbye."
Liang Xi hung up the phone and dialed Bobby's phone: "Boss, where are you? I have business coming to you." The loser is Bobby, and the winner is his.
This is a character of Liang Xi that John dislikes very much. He gives up before fighting. It can be seen from the will case at the beginning that Liang Xi doesn't like to talk to death or give others hope. No matter how confident his reasoning is, he
He will also consider the possibility of failure first. Simply put, he lacks confidence. But Liang Xi thinks this is caution.
Just like a doctor treating a disease, the doctor will not tell the patient: No problem, it’s just a cold, just go home and take a nap. Because once the patient falls down when going out, the patient’s family may impose responsibility on the doctor, thinking that the doctor is not serious.
Examinations regard human life as trivial. So much so that most doctors have learned the anti-traditional elimination diagnosis method. A set of various examinations can rule out cancer, high blood pressure, heart disease, AIDS, diabetes, genetic diseases...etc.
After getting the symptoms, it can be proved that the patient does have a cold. The patient falls down when he goes out, and the patient's family members come to the door. The doctor can take out the examination report. If there is evidence, it is a cold. It is none of my business, get out!
This is what Liang Xi is like. This is possible, and this is also possible. Liang Xi, like the doctor, knows that the patient has a cold. Of course, direct diagnosis will definitely make mistakes, and there will be times when he is wrong. At this time, Liang Xi can say, I said it
It's just possible.
After all, it is not that Liang Xi is not confident, but that Liang Xi does not want to take responsibility. On the other hand, Liang Xi has a sense of responsibility, so he does not want to take responsibility. After John and Liang Xi debated for a while, John was not sure whether Liang Xi had a good character.
is bad.
The reason why Thresh was so humble was that although he accepted the black order of Internet Celebrity Festival, he did not understand the black order. The boss of the Wind and Fire Group, Fire Phoenix, had laid out all the plans. Thresh knew who the target was and how to deal with it.
But Thresh didn't know what the title of the black list was. Thresh vaguely felt that what he saw was just an iceberg floating on the water.
Just like the college entrance examination, Thresh is appointed as the invigilator. Thresh knows where and who is taking the exam. But Thresh does not know the content of the test paper. As an opponent, Thresh has confidence in Liang Xi, but as a partner, Thresh does not dare to believe Liang Xi.
At the same time, Thresh had to guard against Liang Xi digging himself out.
There have been many things going on recently, all of which are major events. The attack on Fiona led to the intervention of the National Defense Police. The Internet Celebrity Festival has become the focus of attention across Europe. The Holy Flag is preparing to attack Maria Hospital during the Internet Celebrity Festival. The Blade lost Fiona in the battle and asked them to
Caught off guard, Maria Hospital and Hanmi's security work all fell on Blade. Can they cope with the crisis without hackers?
Liang Xi was like a bystander. He was not deeply involved in anything, but everything was related to him. However, he was not the protagonist in everything. When Mary called and said she wanted to visit John,
Liang Xi immediately drove over to pick up Mary. Today is John's birthday. Liang Xi had forgotten it, but Mary still remembered it.
…
On the way to the cemetery, Mary was in a very calm mood, and Jin Lado curled up next to Mary obediently. After getting off the car, Jin Lado followed Mary and Liang Xi slowly to John's cemetery without leading the way.
There are thousands of cemeteries in this cemetery park. There are not many people and it is very quiet. Everyone is quietly condolences to the deceased and speaks softly to the deceased. A man with short black hair stood quietly in front of John's tomb, looking at the tombstone and meditating. The man
He is about fifty years old, lean and strong, and wears relaxed and comfortable clothes. From the appearance, he looks like a mature and strong man.
"Mary." The man turned around and saw Mary and the others. It took him a while to recognize Mary.
Mary recognized it for a long time: "Quinta?"
The man was a little excited: "Yes."
"Oh, gah." Mary was very excited and stepped forward and the two of them hugged each other tightly. Mary even cried. After letting go, she said in disbelief: "They said you were dead."
Kunta smiled brightly: "They also said you are old."
"Haha." Mary smiled and hugged Quinta again.
Mary introduced Liang Xi, Liang Xi shook hands with Kunta, and they started chatting in front of the tomb.
Quinta was John's neighbor when he was a child. John, who was in middle school, took care of Quinta as a part-time nanny. After graduating from high school, Quinta served in the army and became a sailor after retiring. He kept in touch with John and had a good relationship with Mary. 20 years ago, 30
The 12-year-old Quinta and 12 crew members on the same ship were hijacked by pirates in Somalia. In the end, four crew members, including Quinta, were killed by the pirates.
Quinta told Mary that he was shot and jumped off a 20-meter-high cliff into the sea. Fortunately, he was rescued by a local. However, Quinta lost his memory. Without any documents on him, he could only recuperate locally.
Months later, Quinta followed a Chilean ship to South America, met the love of his life, and gave birth to two children.
Quinta showed the photo to Mary. His wife was a beautiful South American beauty and they had two children, a boy and a girl. They were both very beautiful. Kunta told Mary that his memory suddenly recovered two years ago, so he contacted her.
The local British Consulate. The consulate only responded and confirmed his identity last month, and restored Quinta's British identity. This time Quinta came back mainly to deal with paperwork issues. He is expected to stay for about half a month. He has not decided yet.
Should I return to the UK to live with my family or continue to live in Chile? I still have to discuss this matter with my wife.
Kunta's words sounded a bit strange. Kunta provided a lot of evidence to prove that what he said was the truth. There seemed to be no reason not to believe it. But Liang Xi didn't believe it because there were too many loopholes. Kunta focused on photos and family members. For 20
