Yanjing Second International Airport

"Sir, where are you going?"

A taxi carries a strange young man. The young man wears a mask and cannot see his appearance clearly, which makes the driver a little curious, but he can come out of the ticket inspection hall. I guess this is not a suspicious person, nor is it a suspect. +◆,

"Phoenix Square."

Meng Huo replied in a voice change. He had just gotten off the plane and Alice and Shen Jie were no longer on the same flight. They and Li Qin both flew to Su Hua, but Meng Huo transferred his destination to Yanjing halfway. He wanted to see how Zhou Qian built Phoenix Square.

"Phoenix Square? That comic square is right?" said the driver, and his doubts disappeared a lot: "Are you a comic fan from another place?"

Meng Huo was curious: "Listen to you, are there many people from other places going there to play?"

"I can't say a lot... I'm taking the airport route specifically. I've seen many tourists like you in the past few months." The driver said while driving a taxi: "Phoenix Square is a good place, but you have to be careful, it's not very peaceful."

“Not peaceful?”

"It's just stealing, robbery, and occasionally there will be beating people." The driver replied: "In the past month, it is said that there have been more than 30 robberies. The robberies are basically tourists from other places, so you should pay attention to them there."

"Thank you, I will." Meng Huo frowned. What's going on? It's unlikely that there are incidents of stealing, robbery, and even beating people?

Half an hour later, Meng Huo arrived at Phoenix Square. As soon as he got off the bus, he saw a phoenix statue spreading its wings and soaring on the pool in front of the square. The statue is more than ten meters high and looks very beautiful.

"This statue is done well." Meng Huo nodded secretly. There are also several phoenix statues on Manga Island, but none of them are that big.

Behind the pool is Phoenix Square, which looks like a huge eggshell, covering an area of ​​nearly 600,000 square meters. This is a modern shopping center that can withstand an average daily passenger flow of 700,000 people.

However, under the huge building, Meng Huo found that there were not many people entering and exiting the gate, and the entrance to the underground parking lot on one side was also deserted.

He walked into Phoenix Square. As soon as he walked into the gate, he suddenly heard a panic sound.

"Catch him, he is a thief!" Meng Huo turned around and saw a fierce man running towards the gate. He grabbed his bag with one hand and the other with a dagger: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! I will stab whoever blocks the way!"

The pedestrians on the road were so scared that their faces were pale and quickly avoided both sides. Meng Huo frowned: "Why did Zhou Qian make this place like this!"

It seems that the driver is not telling a lie. In broad daylight, there are cameras everywhere in the square. But the thief was not afraid at all. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Meng Huo would have thought it was filming!

"Boy, let's go!" The man was closer to Meng Huo and shouted at him. Meng Huo hid on the side, but when the man was about to run over, he suddenly stretched out his foot and said "bang". The man fell to the ground with a face down, and the dagger and bag came out at the same time, landing on the ground one meter away.

The pedestrians around were stunned. The bodyguard standing behind Meng Huo reacted as soon as possible, rushed over and suppressed the man, and then pulled him up.

Meng Huo bent down and picked up the dagger and bag, and said to the bodyguard: "Call the police and send him to the police station!"

The bodyguard naturally had no objection, but the man who was bleeding from his nose and was dizzy when he heard this, he became angry: "Boy, who do you think you are? This is my territory. Believe it or not, I will come out of the police station tomorrow and take a group of people to chop you!"

Meng Huo laughed: "So rampant? Then turn it off first, I'll call you, how about you calling your group of people?"

The man was stunned, but the bodyguards looked at each other one after another. Finally, one person walked out and asked, "Sir, this person is a gangster nearby. You can just call the police for a few days. It's better not to provoke him."

Meng Huo's smile stopped, and he looked at the bodyguards: "Zhou Qian invited you idiots?"

"Zhou...Minister Zhou..."

"Who are you?"

The bodyguards immediately became nervous when they heard Zhou Qian's name.

"I am..." Meng Huo was about to answer when the ringtone of his cell phone rang, and he took back the words, turned around and picked up his cell phone to answer the phone.

"Mom...you're here?...I just arrived here, right...it's fine..."

The phone call was made by Li Qin. They had returned to the Meng family. Everything was safe. Meng Huo put down the phone and looked back at the bodyguards. Some bodyguards had not yet reacted, while others had turned pale.

Meng Huo did not hide his voice on the phone. Some tourists around him screamed earlier than the bodyguards.

"Teacher He Xi, it's Teacher He Xi's voice!"

"God, is it really Teacher He Xi?"

In a blink of an eye, Meng Huo was surrounded by people, but instead of telling others about his identity, he returned the bag to the stolen girl, and then looked at the employees of the Phoenix Company who were following the girl in surprise.

"Liu Yun, why are you here too?"

Liu Yun came to Yanjing from Su Hua yesterday. She is now working in Phoenix Square. Meng Huo's greeting immediately made her react.

"Meng...Teacher He Xi...When are you back?"

She almost said Meng Huo's name, but when the people around her heard the employees of Phoenix Company shouting "Teacher He Xi", they could not care about such details and rushed towards Meng Huo.

"Teacher He Xi, it's really Teacher He Xi!"

"Teacher, please sign me!"

"Teacher, can you take a photo with me?"

Although there are not many tourists in Phoenix Square, it is only judging from the proportion of huge buildings and tourists' flow. In fact, there are not many tourists here, and hundreds of people gathered around Meng Huo.

The bodyguards quickly realized that they were finished now. He Xi just called them stupid. If he was still touched by tourists, then they would not be able to go to work tomorrow!

“Get out of here!”

"Don't get close to Teacher He Xi!"

The bodyguards who reacted all tried their best to help Meng Huo break through. But it took several minutes to protect him and walk into the elevator.

At this time, Zhou Qian had already received the news. However, she knew that He Xi was back at the first time, it was not the phone number of the employees. It was the chat group information popping up from her mobile phone. As soon as Meng Huo appeared on the first floor of the square, some fans had already sent the information to the Internet, and the chat group where Zhou Qian was in immediately had news.

"Sisters, big news, Teacher He Xi appeared in Yanjing!" It was just a short text message, without any photos or evidence, which made the entire chat group boil. Before Zhou Qian received a call from the employee, the chat group had already swept more than 90 messages.

"They are really crazy waiting for the teacher!" Zhou Qian thought so, but she could understand the excitement of these fans. In fact, she was as excited as them, but in addition to being excited, she also felt nervous.

When Meng Huo walked out of the elevator, he saw Zhou Qian's nervous face.

"..." He looked at her not speaking, and Zhou Qian lowered her head: "Sorry, teacher, I told you to surprise you, but I didn't expect it was this surprise."

She had already learned what happened next from the phone. She also knew that Meng Huo must be unhappy now. Phoenix Plaza has been operating for more than half a year. The current situation really cannot be said to be good. Zhou Qian feels that the responsibility lies with her.

"...Forget it." Looking at Zhou Qian's apologizing, Meng Huo's anger subsided a lot: "Take me to the office, I want to hear your explanation."

He has always been optimistic about Zhou Qian's ability. He originally thought that he would see the popularity of Phoenix Square when he came back. This should not be a difficult task for Zhou Qian. She is very good at engaging in various comic activities. Although Meng Huo is not in the company, Phoenix has too many comic and animation resources over the years, and can fully support Zhou Qian's plan.

Yanjing was originally a city with a huge number of comic readers, and as the capital, it has a high traffic flow. As long as it can hold a few major events, the traffic of Phoenix Plaza will never be as tepid as it is today. This situation must be a reason.

Zhou Qian poured tea for Meng Huo in the office: "The teacher left this time for a long time."

"Compared with the last time, this time it was not long." Meng Huo left for more than a year last time, and he drank tea: "Tell me, what happened here? Why is it so unsuccessful?"

"Actually, it's not a big problem." Zhou Qian said with a headache: "It's just that this place is too messy, and thieves are constantly banned. The media has reported it many times. Many comic readers have encountered unpleasant things and have no good feelings for it. After the rumors spread, we held several events, except for the real one, the results are not very good."

"reality?"

"I asked the real lady to perform last time, and the effect was surprisingly good. The traffic that day blocked the streets." Zhou Qian nodded and said, "The real lady is now a big star. Unfortunately, after she left, the place immediately became deserted."

Meng Huo was a little surprised, but now he doesn't care about Xia Chuan's real life.

"Are you saying that thieves cannot develop here?" He was full of surprise: "Don't talk nonsense, how could such a thing happen? Isn't the public security in Yanjing very good? What do the police station do?"

Zhou Qian smiled bitterly. She knew that this matter sounded incredible, but that was the truth.

"The gangsters here are all locals, and they are said to have a gangster background." Zhou Qian sighed: "There is a police station next to us. At my strong request, the police station carried out three large-scale attacks, but the effect was not great each time."

"They say that those gangsters are easy to hide, elusive, and difficult to deal with."

Zhou Qian's words made Meng Huo's face cold: "Do you believe this?"

If they are locals, how could the police station have no information? Locals are better suppressed. As long as they catch a group of people, how can the rest dare to show up?

"I think those policemen don't want to attack, right?" Meng Huo remembered the words of the gangster just now. It was obvious that there were some forces behind these gangsters, otherwise how could they be so confident?

"I know this too." Zhou Qian turned around, found some information from the cabinet of the desk, and handed it to Meng Huo and said: "Actually, I have investigated everything clearly and haven't moved. I'm just waiting for you to come back!"

Meng Huo picked up the information and took a few simple glances. As expected, someone deliberately hindered them!

Moreover, the targets pointed to by these clues are not difficult to guess. It is the companies that mainly focus on Star Dreams. In fact, they did not do anything big. They just a little encouraged some people to add some trouble to Phoenix Square, making the regional police station turn a blind eye, and then add some media operations, and the effect will come out.

The old lady of the Meng family had promised to protect Phoenix Company from outside attacks, but it seemed that the attack was too small and she didn't take it seriously. In fact, this type of attack could not appear anywhere else in Phoenix Company. It was only when they first came to Yanjing that they gave people a feeling that they could bully.

"Why don't you solve it?" Meng Huo put down the information and asked, "This kind of thing is just a small fuss, and you can't handle it, right?"

"Aren't I afraid of the opposite effect?" Zhou Qian spread her hands: "Our company's connections and power in Yanjing are not very strong. Even if this kind of small fight is solved, it will cause greater trouble? You and Vice President Alice are not here, so I dare not stimulate those celebrity companies."

She could indeed handle this trouble, but she was worried that it would make the opponents angry and cause greater trouble. She did not have the confidence to fight with the other party head-on. Since that is the case, it would be better to maintain this state. Although it is lukewarm, there would be no major problems.

As long as Meng Huo and Alice come back, she will be able to move with her hands and feet.

"I originally wanted to wait for Vice President Alice to come back. She has a wide range of popularity and her methods are better than me." Zhou Qian said helplessly: "I didn't expect that it was the teacher who came back first, and the surprise I gave you was ruined."

"She has something to do and won't come back for the time being."

Meng Huo said, and then felt that it was a pity that Zhou Qian would not have any counterproductive effect in solving those gangsters. The celebrity company did not dare to do too much. If they were too much, the old lady would still be watching. If it was a big deal, it would be them who were unlucky.

It’s also a fault that he didn’t explain it clearly to Zhou Qian. If he told her to let go, Phoenix Plaza might have become another small ‘comic island’ now.

But now it's too late to say this, and things have come to this point. Meng Huo is back and he decided to solve the problem himself.

"Prepare a banquet hall here. I have some guests to explain tomorrow night." Meng Huo supported his head and said, "We have been to Yanjing for so long and have not greeted the people here. This is not very polite."
