Covered with water

This is really not polite enough.

Maeda Ichiro's face changed slightly when he heard the words. He has been in a high position for a long time. Even on a real diplomatic occasion, Tong Yu's status is not enough at all, let alone a white young master Qin, but in Qin Zhi's body His aura made him feel a strong sense of uneasiness, the kind of instinctive fear of being at the bottom of the food chain.Maeda's tone at this time was also a little bit hostile, but Qin Zhi's status as the "finger puller master" did not make him angry, and he snorted coldly and said: "Details...? I think, for the specific situation, I have already sent someone to I’ve talked to Director Tong once, what else do you two want to hear?”

Tong Yu felt as soon as Maeda opened his mouth that it was time to finish—as the intermediary in charge of this case, no one knew better than him how difficult this Mr. Maeda was.Even though the humble appearance of being a virtuous and corporal is still there, Maeda still has some arrogance and self-respect of being a high-ranking person in his bones, and he has a natural sense of superiority in politics than in business. Maeda is still very arrogant when getting along in private. It costs [-] to [-] yuan to ask for help, but he is not as "friendly" as he thinks, so Tong Yu was very worried about how to arrange a meeting between him and his wife.But because Qin Zhi's attitude was calm when he brought up this matter, and Maeda also personally realized the possible tricks behind the identity of God Child Ise. Prepare to piss people off.

Thinking about it, it's true, even if a young talent with a halo like Young Master Qin has no personal grievances, if Qin Zhi hadn't preempted the attack, most of Tian Tian's self-esteem in the past would have made it difficult for him to speak out. The words are not always particularly pleasant.After thinking about it, Tong Yu thought about it, stretching out his head and retracting his head was also a stab, if it wasn't for the fear of causing a diplomatic accident, and there was still a place where Maeda could be used, he wouldn't have to work so hard to support a moody foreign uncle so many days.What's more, at his level, he still has the ability to get in touch with the gossip about the young master Qin, Xiao Yunhe, the young wife of the Qin family, is powerful, and he has actually experienced it.Although the Bureau of Secrets "invited" the two of them to help out, it was disgraceful, but at this time it seemed that they needed to be unanimous, even if there was any settlement after autumn, he would admit it.

Xiao Yunhe has an indifferent attitude on his face. Although the whole group will occasionally call him madam jokingly, and there is a large amount of dividends in the account every year, but he is a policeman after all, and he does not usually participate in the company's decision-making. Qin Zhi had a decisive side when he was the president.Now that he has even brought out the tricks in the business field, Xiao Yunhe is also happy to be at leisure. He simply can't speak Japanese well, so he can just shut up and be an observer.

"Mr. Maeda, you really don't have to be so hostile to me." Qin Zhi smiled, "To be honest, the two of us came here today to discuss cooperation with you."

Maeda said: "...Cooperation?"

"Yes, cooperate." Qin Zhi repeated, "I borrowed Tong Chu's hand to ask you to investigate Ise Shenzi, just to tell you that the matter has developed to this point, and it is not just as simple as a bronze tripod. You I first found the Secret Bureau to save my life. Coincidentally, I am the person directly responsible for the bronze tripod, and I also want to save my life. The bronze tripod comes from China, and the cause of the curse is probably related to Mr. Zhengguo’s family. But as you said See, the bronze tripod has begun to get out of control. Your daughter, the girls' school students, and even Tsubaki Kojiro are all victims of this curse. None of us can guarantee that we are absolutely safe until the problem is completely resolved. I die It doesn't matter, you are not good at learning, and you think you are unlucky. But Mr. Maeda, you are different. After so many years of hard work, you have an identity and status, and you should not be so naive as to bet on this 50.00% probability."

Maeda said, "Are you threatening me?"

"No, I'm just telling the truth." Qin Zhi continued, "Mr. Maeda, I'm a businessman, and I'll only do things that are profitable. With all due respect, you don't have any value in you that I can covet. In terms of status , your authority is all in Japan, I am a Chinese, and have nothing to do with each other. Talk about money, I really don’t lack your business, and I work for the Secrecy Bureau for nothing. So you can rest assured, I'm not interested in your status, let alone expose anything to the outside world. I just want to talk to you about the most basic thing, which is our fate."

Maeda said: "...What do you want to know?"

"It is the key that connects all events." He said, "The truth about your donation, or why you chose the Kanno family."

Maeda Ichiro stopped talking, and frowned, seeming to be thinking about something, but Xiao Yunhe always felt that there was something strange about his expression.Rather than saying that he was weighing the conditions offered by Qin Zhi, it would be better to say that he was afraid of a certain "fact".Qin Zhi obviously noticed this too: "Mr. Maeda, I don't think this is a difficult question to answer."

The corner of Maeda's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to refute something—Qin Zhi smiled slightly, and completed the second half of the sentence before he could speak: "If you have any secrets, let me give you an answer. You There is no reason to choose the Kanno family, because Kanno Masakuni took the initiative to find you."

Maeda's unmoving expression finally showed a crack: "Why do you—"

He acted like he was not telling himself at this time, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized his slip of the tongue.However, Qin Zhi had already got the answer he wanted from the feedback on his behavior, and said with a warm smile: "Okay, since this question makes Mr. Maeda unhappy, let's change the topic, how about we talk about cooperation?"

"...Very good, very good." Ichiro Maeda nodded, "Ha, cooperation... What else do you not know?"

Qin Zhidao: "Because there are still many things we don't know, we need to bother Mr. Maeda. Tomorrow, Yunhe and I plan to go to Ise and have a face-to-face chat with that Ms. Shenzi. I hope Mr. Maeda can help us." convenient."

"Ise Miko..." Maeda Ichiro said, "You know very well that I haven't found any information about her."

"Yes, it is difficult to find a needle in a haystack, but it is easy to screen in a small area. There is no doubt that Miko Ise is a real person. Please rest assured Mr. Maeda. In order to show the sincerity of cooperation, I will give you two more clues. First, she and Tsubaki Kojiro are college classmates, and their age may not be accurate, so I hope it will not be used as a basis for judgment. Second, the meaning of her name, Ise Miko..." He paused, then emphasized softly, "Ise Miko. So Maeda-san should understand, right?"

"!!!" Rao Tong Yu had already touched the threshold of the truth, and now hearing that Qin Zhi personally confirmed his guess, he still felt an indescribable surprise in his heart.And Maeda Ichiro's ability to get to where he is today is enough to prove that he is not a brainless idiot. After thinking about it combined with the previous situation, he quickly understood Qin Zhi's implication. Although the shock in his heart was no less than that of Tong Yu, his The expression management is still very stable, and he replied: "Okay. No matter what the result is, I will give you an answer before nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Then thank you Mr. Maeda." Qin Zhi took the initiative to extend his right hand, "I wish us a happy cooperation."

"...Happy cooperation." The four words Maeda seemed to be squeezed out between teeth, and the handshake was also very reluctant. "I'm very busy. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

It was hard for Tong Yu to judge whether this was tearing face in another sense, the movement of getting up was two seconds slow, Maeda had already walked away, and was soon greeted by the secretary guarding the door into a Toyota sedan.Seeing this, Tong Yu didn't chase after him anymore, stood on the spot and laughed twice, and said, "That... Director Qin, I'm sorry." Xiao Yunhe seemed to see a tail wagging behind him, and felt that he was going down. In a second, I will take the initiative to ask Ying to be Qin Zhi's secretary.

Tong Yu really had this idea, but it was a pity that it was still a bit difficult to operate.Qin Zhi didn't follow him to say what was right or wrong, he smiled and said: "Tong Chu, we should go when the matter is over."

Tong Yu hurriedly said, "I'll send you two off."

The couple stood on the porch, waiting for Tong Yu to drive over.Although the most critical issue has been confirmed, Xiao Yunhe still regretted not being able to make full use of Maeda, and raised his arm to push Qin Zhi: "You said... What did Zhengguo say to him?"

"'If you say it, you will die'...something like that." Qin Zhi shrugged, "Maeda is a person who puts his interests first. If there is no sufficient reason, it will be difficult for Zhengguo to persuade him to hand over the bronze tripod. So I Guess, Zhengguo may have revealed part of the truth, and then used this part of the truth to intimidate Maeda. Zhengguo is an insider, and his purpose of doing this is to protect Yoshiki Kanno, because he expected the ending that he would sacrifice himself. So he must guarantee that Maeda, the only one who knows the truth, can keep this secret for him."

Xiao Yunhe said: "Then..." If Maeda can be made to speak...

Qin Zhidao: "But he won't say it, because money and status are equally important to him than living. Living is '1', and money and status are the string of zeros that follow. No matter what we say What, what he really believes is just what he wants to believe, and he thinks it will kill him if he says it, so he won't say it."

At this time, Tong Yu had also arrived, and the husband and wife stopped talking.Tong Yu didn't work as a full-time driver for a while. After getting in the car, he first adjusted the angle of the rearview mirror and the position of the seat, and asked the two of them, "Are you two going back to Kanno's house?"

Qin Zhi said: "Take us to the Kanno Museum first."

Tong Yu wisely didn't ask any more questions. The couple stayed in the museum for another hour, and it was already dark when they returned to Kanno House.Both Yuko Yoshiki and Hattori were at home, and the three of them gathered in Yuko's bedroom, watching the evening news broadcast on TV.Fang Shu heard the movement at the door, and quickly got up to greet them, and greeted the three of them one by one: "Mr. Qin, Captain Xiao, Tong Chu."

Tong Yu has seen him often these days, and seeing that the discharge from the hospital has been arranged properly, he asks, "Is mother-in-law Yuzi okay?"

"It's okay." Fang Shu replied, "The nurse invited by Director Tong is very good and takes good care of you. Grandma Yuko has been waiting for you all the time. She said that she would like to thank you personally. This time is really troublesome. gone."

So the three went to visit Yuko in the bedroom again.Yuko was obviously a little sleepy, and when he saw them coming in, he turned sideways with great difficulty.Fang Shu walked over and patted her hand, full of reassurance, and Hattori, the three of them thanked her again.

Qin Zhi paused, and said, "Mr. Kanye, let's come out and talk."

Yoshiki nodded, and replied, "Okay." He asked Hattori to rest Yuko, and he closed the door himself, and returned to the guest room with the three of them.He had been in the hospital during this time, so naturally he didn't know the progress of the case investigation. At this time, he wanted to ask, but his mood was a little unstable when he just opened his mouth. "Sorry, I..." Fang Shu calmed down, "I want to ask about Grandpa's case..."

"Mr. Zhengguo's death is indeed related to the curse of the bronze tripod." Qin Zhi said, "We are still sorting out the details of the case. I can only say that some things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. I will go with Yunhe tomorrow Go to Ise to find a way to break the curse. After we come back, we will give a complete explanation to Mr. Kanno."

Fang Shu was silent for a while, and then gave a low "hmm" again.Qin Zhi continued: "This matter involves a lot. No matter what Mr. Kanye thinks, please make sure that the living are the most important thing."

Fang Shu said: "The two... when will you come back?"

Qin Zhidao: "No more than two days at most. During our absence, Tong Chu will take care of everyone. Please, no, anyone, please don't touch the bronze tripod again."

He had told these words once before—Fang Shu pursed her lips: "Okay, I will wait for the two of you to come back with peace of mind."
