unrivaled gymnastics
Chapter 11 The Phantom Thief
Xiao Xuechen told Fang Xinhe and Shi Mantao all about his encounter and relationship with Gu Xiaofei.Fang Xinhe is his uncle, and Shi Mantao, as a master of disguise, is often invited by the police to help solve cases, so he does not shy away from these two.
His narration was very organized, with almost no personal opinions mixed in, and he began to ask his own questions only after he had finished talking about what he had seen and heard.
"Gu Xiaofei is very skilled. He has learned high-quality martial arts, but he hides himself from the people, and he makes up some easy-to-explain lies such as radio gymnastics to deceive others. I don't know if he is pretending on purpose, or if he is really pure in nature. I asked Junior Brother Gu He has checked the household registration information of his hometown, and he is not lying on this point. There is indeed a boy named Gu Xiaofei in the Lvshui Township Welfare Institute, and his appearance is also suitable. Unless he is a master of disguise like Senior Shi, pretending to be He used someone else's name and appearance. His master's inheritance and purpose of identity are very suspicious, but there are too many suspicious things, so it seems...impeccable."
Xiao Xuechen paused, then lowered his head slightly to Fang Xinhe: "Xuechen is dull, I don't know what opinion Master Shi and Senior Shi have."
Fang Xinhe dragged his cheeks, looked at the peach tree in the courtyard in confusion, and played with a board game piece in his hand.Shi Mantao picked up a lock of her hair, but also remained silent.
After a long time, Fang Xinhe dropped the chess pieces and said, "You suspect that he got his martial arts from someone with a disreputable reputation in the Jianghu—for example, the leader of the Devil's Cult—so he dared not disclose the origin of his master, and he and It is not a coincidence that you have met several times, but a situation set up with ulterior motives?"
Xiao Xuechen nodded.
"You have seen that Gu Xiaofei's skill, but you can't tell which trick he used?"
"He moves too fast, and he often kills the enemy with one move. Before he can see what move he is using, the fight is over. If I can make a few more moves, maybe I can see some clues."
Shi Mantao suddenly said "ah".Xiao Xuechen hurriedly asked: "Senior Shi, did you remember anything?"
"It just occurred to me... We always speculate on others with malice, is it too much? What if the young man is really innocent and simple, and what he said is true?"
"...Senior Shi, innocence and simplicity are not the same as stupidity and stupidity. Don't 19-year-old adults know that there is no kung fu in the world called 'No.18 National Broadcasting Gymnastics for Middle School Students'?"
"If—I mean if—if you grew up in a closed mountain village, lack of information, backward in knowledge, and completely ignorant of martial arts and rivers and lakes. One day a martial arts master came to your village and taught you some kung fu , but lied to you that this is radio gymnastics, what will you do?"
Xiao Xuechen was stunned, not knowing how to answer.Fang Xinhe said, "I'm afraid I'll think that's radio gymnastics."
"That's right. Maybe everything Gu Xiaofei said is true, but it's what he thought was true."
Fang Xinhe pondered for a moment, and said: "From Gu Xiaofei's point of view, he has only learned radio exercises that all students in the country must master, but in fact he has learned an extraordinary skill. From our point of view, what he practiced is Qimen Kungfu, but he said that he only knows how to do radio exercises, of course we thought he was lying."
Shi Mantao rolled his eyes and looked at Xiao Xuechen: "Nephew Xiao Xian, do you think my guess is reasonable?"
"This..." Xiao Xuechen was noncommittal.
He had deep suspicions about Gu Xiaofei, but facing the young man's glass-like smile, he often wondered if he was worrying too much.Suspicious of others at the moment, doubting himself at the moment, I am in this kind of anxiety and contradiction all day long, and it is difficult to calm my mind even when I am practicing.
He came to visit Fang Xinhe this time, in fact, to win his support so that he could feel at ease.Their teacher is a decent sect of martial arts, and he has always hated the bloodthirsty lunatics of the Demon Sect, and he himself was especially victimized by the Demon Sect.Among the elders of the master's family, his little uncle always made fun of him, but he loved him the most. He thought that his uncle would definitely fight against the enemy, and tried to find out Gu Xiaofei's doubts, but he did not expect to come up with another possibility sex.Instead of being resolved, his doubts intensified.
"But……"
Just as he was about to refute Shi Mantao's guess, he heard a loud voice from the entrance of the courtyard: "Sorry, Mr. Fang, I'm late!"
Xiao Xuechen turned around.An old man with gray hair came slowly.He is old, but his steps are very steady, his back is straight, and he holds two walnuts in his hand, looking old and strong.
Fang Xinhe and Shi Mantao smiled, stood up and shook hands with the old man.The old man exchanged a few words with them, but his eyes kept wandering on Xiao Xuechen.
Fang Xinhe noticed his gaze, and turned to Xiao Xuechen: "Xuechen, you don't recognize this person. Let me introduce, this is Boss Qi, the chairman of Hongjing Real Estate, and we are family friends of the Fang family."
He also said to the boss: "This is my senior nephew Xiao Xuechen, who is highly regarded by my senior brother, and is the leader of our Lingxu Sect's younger generation."
Xiao Xuechen clasped his fists at Boss Qi, who responded with a smile.
"Xiao Shaoxia looks like a dragon and a phoenix among people. I really admire it when I see it."
Fang Xinhe was the host, and after exchanging pleasantries, everyone was invited to sit down.It seemed that the last chair was prepared for Boss Qi. He called Xiao Xuechen over today to find out that Gu Xiaofei was next, and the main purpose was probably because of Boss Qi.
Xiaoqi hurried over with trays and brought coffee to the four of them.Fang Xinhe removed the blueprint of the board game from the table with embarrassment.
"I run a coffee shop here. I don't have any good tea, but the coffee beans are imported from Brazil. Please invite Boss Qi to taste my coffee."
Boss Qi took a sip of coffee politely.
"I know you Jianghu people don't like hypocrisy and politeness, so I'll cut to the chase. The purpose of coming here today is to ask the three knights to help you."
"Boss Qi, you're being polite. Those of us who make a living in the rivers and lakes don't have any great talents and plans. We just have brute force. We can't help Boss Qi very much, but as long as we can, we will definitely help." Fang Xinhe said, "I just don't know. Boss Qi is such a man with great hands and eyes, what can we do for you?"
What he said was very polite, Boss Qi was someone who was used to being praised by all the stars, and he only felt comfortable hearing it.Xiao Xuechen looked sideways at his uncle, and thought that his uncle was such a tactful person. If he were to face the boss alone, he would probably only be able to say "what's your business".
Boss Qi took out a piece of paper from his pocket, unfolded it and handed it to Fang Xinhe.Both Shi Mantao and Xiao Xuechen leaned over to watch.There was a line written crookedly on the paper: Before the exhibition closes on April 4, I will definitely pick up your baby.
"What does this mean?" Shi Mantao asked.
Fang Xinhe already had a general idea in his heart. "Miss Shi does not know that Boss Qi is not only a successful businessman, but also a well-known antique collector in this city. In terms of the scale of the collection, it is one of the few in the country, and ordinary small museums cannot compare with others. The letter, I am afraid that some thief took a fancy to the collection in Boss Qi's house, so he made a lot of nonsense."
"I haven't said a word yet, Mr. Fang has already guessed the matter thoroughly, admire, admire!" Boss Qi said.
"The letter said 'April 4st', could it be an April Fool's Day prank?" Shi Mantao asked.
"I'm afraid not. I have acquired many rare curios over the years, and I plan to hold a private collection exhibition. The time is set for April 4. Someone put this letter in the exhibition hall. The exhibition hall is being decorated Among them, there were many people passing by, and it was impossible to find out who brought the letter in. I think this must be a crime notice made by a strange thief.” Boss Qi’s grandson likes watching Japanese animation, and he also watched some , know the words "strange thief" and "crime warning".
"What an arrogant little thief!" Shi Mantao said, "Did Boss Qi ask the police for help?"
"I have already called the police. The Public Security Bureau promised to send someone to be on duty on the day of the exhibition. I also found a private security company myself. But I am still worried, because...with the letter, there is a playing card— — Ace of Hearts!"
Xiao Xuechen raised his eyebrows, Shi Mantao said "ah", Fang Xinhe raised the corners of his mouth playfully.
"This Ace of Hearts is probably the Phantom Thief hinting at his identity: he is the Ace of Hearts in the wanted card. I have some acquaintances in the public security department, and I got some information from them." Boss Qi secretly looked at Xiao Xuechen At a glance, "This 'Ace of Hearts' recently robbed two important criminals, causing the police to be disturbed. Just at this time, I received a crime notice. I think there must be a relationship between the two." Ace of Hearts 'The purpose of stealing prisoners is to increase manpower, so as to steal my collection on the day of the exhibition!"
"Well, there is indeed such a possibility." Fang Xinhe echoed, "I have to be careful."
"I heard that the 'Ace of Hearts' is not only an elegant thief who specializes in stealing art, but also a master of martial arts. I'm afraid ordinary policemen are no match for him. That's why I thought of Mr. Fang and Miss Shi. Mr. Fang is The descendant of the Jianghuai Fang family once studied in the Lingxu School. If you escorted me on the day of the exhibition, I would feel more at ease. And Miss Shi's disguise technique is extremely exquisite. I think, if the 'Ace of Hearts' If you want to mess with the progress meeting, you will definitely have to disguise yourself. If Miss Shi, the master of disguise, is there, you might be able to see through his disguise.
"But I know that Mr. Fang is like a wild crane. I'm afraid he doesn't like to meddle in these mundane affairs. That's why I asked Mr. Fang to introduce Xiao Shaoxia to me. Xiao Shaoxia is a young talent. If I can come out of the mountain for your uncle, I will be relieved! "
Xiao Xuechen had no objection to being a security guard at the antique exhibition to defend against strange thieves.He is often invited by the public security organs to assist in the arrest of suspects who know martial arts, and he has become accustomed to it.However, it was the first time that he faced one of the four Aces in the most wanted card.
He looked at Fang Xinhe, and asked with his eyes if Boss Qi was reliable.Fang Xinhe nodded, indicating that there is no problem.
"Boss Qi values it so much, I'm really flattered." He said calmly, without any hint of flattery.
Boss Qi probably knew that he was indifferent, so it wasn't surprising.
"Then please leave Shaoxia Xiao and Ms. Shi." He clasped his fists like the Jianghu people, "There is one more thing, I want to trouble Shaoxia Xiao."
"Please say."
"There is another person who I want to ask Shaoxia Xiao to introduce to me. If this person can also serve as the security guard on the day of the exhibition, it will be safe."
"Oh? Which of my friends? I'll try to see if I can get one."
"I heard that there is a strange person beside Xiao Shaoxia—a young man with superb kung fu. He once fought against the '8 of Spades' in the wanted card in the poker warrant by himself, brought him to justice, and wiped out a group of people with his own hands. The remnants of the Devil's Cult. It's just that this young man doesn't like to associate with other people, but he is only intimate with Xiao Shaoxia. If you want to move him, you can only go through Xiao Shaoxia."
The author has something to say: Xiao Xuechen: Is the Shaoxia you know the same person I know? ? ? ? ?
His narration was very organized, with almost no personal opinions mixed in, and he began to ask his own questions only after he had finished talking about what he had seen and heard.
"Gu Xiaofei is very skilled. He has learned high-quality martial arts, but he hides himself from the people, and he makes up some easy-to-explain lies such as radio gymnastics to deceive others.
