Chapter 4 Chapter Four

The expressions of those two people were very embarrassed, and one of them even reached into the skirt of his jacket. Annie, who was behind Magnolia, was already ready.The man raised his hand, and there was an extra gun in his hand. However, he just pulled out the gun, and before he had a chance to point the gun at Magnolia, there was a sound of "chih", and an anesthetic needle was shot out of Annie's crutch. The anesthesia needle was shot on the man's wrist, and the man loosened his five fingers. With a "pat", the gun fell to the ground.The other person was also going to reach out to draw the gun, but seeing that, the hand that had been stretched into the skirt of his shirt could no longer be retracted, and he stood there stiffly, with an indescribably strange expression.

The person who received the anesthesia shot shook his body a few times after the pistol fell to the ground, and then fell to the ground. Magnolia said again, "Should you get out of the way, or do you want to be like him?" That triangular face and another big man are behind Magnolia and Annie! At this time, I saw the two of them, looking at each other. But at that moment, Mulan turned around and said coldly: "If you come up with some tricks, then it's you who will suffer, not me!" The triangular face changed his mind in an instant, he smiled all over his face, and said: "Miss Lanhua, you must at least let me report first, that is... my responsibility."

"Okay, you report first!" Magnolia replied immediately. The triangular face walked up to the intercom and pressed the button. He immediately said, "Report from the first guard room. Miss Mulanhua has something to see our manager. She has arrived. It is Miss Mulanhua." The triangular face puts emphasis on the last sentence "it's Miss Magnolia". In the microphone, a voice came out immediately, saying: "Please wait a moment." At this time, Mulanhua turned around and continued to walk forward. The person guarding the door stepped aside quickly. As soon as Mulanhua reached the door, she opened the door. It was indeed an elevator.

The triangular face hurriedly said: "Miss Lanhua!" As soon as Mulan let go, the door closed automatically again, she said: "Don't worry, if your general manager didn't want to see me, I would never go up, I think, he will definitely see me!" As soon as Mulanhua finished speaking, someone said through the microphone: "Please hurry up, Miss Mulanhua, the general manager is very happy to see Miss Mulanhua, please come up quickly." The man with the triangular face agreed, then hurried over and opened the lift door for Mulanhua.When Magnolia and Annie entered the elevator together, Annie raised her eyebrows at Magnolia.

Magnolia immediately understood what Anne meant.Anne was asking her if it was safe to enter the lift!Because it is a special elevator, if the current is cut off during the ascent, then they will be trapped inside! Magnolia had already thought of this point. The reason why she opened the door to take a look just now was not meaningless, she was looking to see if she could have another way out if such an accident happened. As a result, she saw that the elevator was similar to an ordinary elevator, with a safety door at the top that could be opened when trapped.Moreover, Mulanhua also expected that if she came to the door by herself, the other party's first step would be to deal with it.She must be pretending not to know anything, that is to say, she can at least reach the top floor safely!

Therefore, when Annie raised her eyebrows at her, she immediately nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem, and Mulanhua's conjecture was correct, because the triangular face also followed in. The elevator went up rapidly.The Hongyun Building has more than 30 floors, that is to say, they have to climb more than 300 feet in the elevator. During that about one minute, the elevator was surprisingly quiet.Moreover, time seemed to pass very slowly, and finally, the elevator stopped.The triangular face pushed open the door, and Mulan immediately saw a large hall. All the layout of the hall is completely Italian palace style, extremely luxurious, when one steps on the ground paved with emerald green marble, one has the feeling of being in a Roman palace.

The triangular face didn't come out of the elevator, because outside the elevator, there were already eight neatly dressed men in black suits standing. As soon as Mulanhua and Annie came out, the eight men were divided into two rows. One of them bowed to Magnolia and said, "Please!" Those eight people surrounded Magnolia and Annie and walked forward. Both Magnolia and Annie could see that on one side of the hall, there were seventy to eighty feet of large glass walls inlaid with large glass, and they could overlook the scenery of the whole city! The eight big men, surrounded Mulanhua and Annie, came to the two gates, and the two gates opened automatically, and there were a dozen steps inside: Mulanhua helped Annie walk up together.

When they went up the stairs, there was another door. As soon as they went up, the door opened again. This was an extremely luxurious office. A middle-aged man with a red face stood behind a large curved desk. stand up. He smiled all over his face, rubbed his big hands, and said, "Welcome! Welcome!" As he spoke, he came out from behind the desk, shook hands with Mulanhua warmly, and said, "It's a great honor for the famous female black hero Mulanhua to come here!" Magnolia's expression was very indifferent, and she asked coldly: "Your Excellency is..."

The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "My name is Zhu Ying, Ying of a hero." Magnolia said: "It turns out that the person in charge of the Far East Branch of the Mafia is called Zhu Ying!" Zhu Ying was stunned for a while as if he had heard something extremely unexpected. He still had a smile on his face and said, "Miss Lanhua, I don't understand what you are talking about?" Mulanhua sighed, and said, "Mr. Zhu, why are you wasting time? If I come here and can't solve the problem, within fifteen minutes, a hundred police officers will come to search, I think. You You don't want something like this to happen!"

Under such circumstances, Zhu Ying still had a smile on his face, which shows that he is indeed a very extraordinary person. He smiled and said, "That's true! That's true, no one wants to do that." Magnolia said: "That's good, where is Gao Xiang?" Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, this time, he seemed really surprised.He immediately asked back: "What did you say? Gao Xiang? Director Gao? He... what does he have to do with us?" "He's missing." Magnolia replied immediately, "And, I'm sure that this disappearance was caused by you. This is the first thing I did when I came here!"

"Wait a minute! Wait a moment!" Zhu Ying made a gesture to make Mulanhua not panic, he retreated to his desk, stood, did not sit down, but pressed many buttons hastily. A wall opposite the desk immediately moved away automatically. After the wall was removed, there were three rows of TV screens, a total of fifteen screens, and in less than half a minute, a bust of a person appeared on each of the fifteen TV screens. Zhu Ying is facing a loudspeaker.He roared loudly. Mulan immediately frowned, because she couldn't understand what Zhu Ying was saying!Magnolia has extremely rich language knowledge, and she even knows some very unpopular languages, such as the native language of the Apennine Mountains in Europe, and the dialect of Bahwapur in Asia, but what is Zhu Ying talking about? I can't understand either! But Mulanhua immediately knew that what Zhu Ying was speaking must be a language created by the mafia itself, and that language might only be commonly used among high-level mafia personnel. Then, outsiders will naturally not know! Zhu Ying yelled for two or three minutes. It seemed that those fifteen people were all his subordinates, because they all showed very confused expressions. After Zhu Ying finished speaking, one of them also spoke in the same language. As he spoke, Zhu Ying patted the table and scolded him fiercely. Zhu Ying kept repeating a word. Although Mulanhua didn't know what the word was, she guessed it and knew that it must be something like "stupid" or "rice bucket". Then, Zhu Ying roared for another minute, the man nodded repeatedly, Zhu Ying suddenly pressed a few more buttons, and the people on the fifteen screens disappeared together, and the wall also moved back. in situ. Zhu Ying breathed a sigh of relief and wiped off his sweat.With a smile on his face again, he said, "Miss Lanhua, just now I let you see my fifteen subordinates. I think this is enough to show my sincerity?" Magnolia just asked, "What happened to Gao Xiang?" "It was just a misunderstanding. My subordinate has already been reprimanded by me. Moreover, he will be disciplined. Director Gao can be fine immediately. Miss Lanhua can see him as soon as she arrives at the police station!" Mulanhua looked at Zhu Ying for a while, she did not doubt Zhu Ying's words, because no matter how powerful the mafia is, it is only a criminal organization after all, and it would never dare to openly make an enemy of the police. Magnolia immediately said again: "The matter of Gao Xiang is the first reason for me to come to see you. There is also the second thing." Zhu Ying smiled wryly and said, "Please tell me." "There is a man named Yun Sheng," Mulan said, "he was introduced by your headquarters in Italy. This guy, together with a man named Magic Xiaogu, cheated me of something." Zhu Ying was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth wide and couldn't speak. After a while, he said: "Then... that thing is an ancient artifact found near Gandia Island, and it is in your hands? How is that possible? You...have been to Europe recently?" "No, it was brought back from my sister's honeymoon." "Damn it, damn it!" Zhu Ying banged on the table vigorously. "There's nothing to be damned about. As long as you return that thing to me, I won't pursue it anymore. This is the simplest solution!" Magnolia replied coldly. "Miss Lanhua," Zhu Ying spread her hands with a full expression. "I'm afraid this is impossible, because Yun Sheng has already returned to Europe, and that thing is no longer here!" "Then you are responsible for recovering it!" "Sigh!" Zhu Ying sighed, "Miss Lanhua, that is not within my power. Oh, I think, Miss Lanhua, if you are willing to accept monetary compensation, that is the best solution." Mulan immediately asked, "How much will you pay?" Zhu Ying paced back and forth a few steps and said, "How about ten thousand pounds?" After Annie came in, she hadn't made a sound, but when she heard that Zhu Ying said that it was ten thousand pounds, she couldn't help whistling softly! She thought Magnolia would definitely accept it! Unexpectedly, Mulanhua immediately laughed and said, "Mr. Zhu, if you think that I don't know the real value of the things you cheated, then you are very wrong!" Zhu Ying looked a little embarrassed, he hurriedly said: "Then, one hundred thousand pounds!" This time, Annie was stunned. Annie really couldn't imagine that such a dark thing, like a rock under the sea, would be worth so much money.Even a piece of pure gold of that size would not be worth a hundred thousand pounds. Magnolia frowned, as if she was very impatient, and said: "I don't want to bargain with you, you don't need to spend any money, as long as you return the original things to me!" Zhu Ying giggled dryly, and said, "Miss Lanhua, you can't help embarrassing me. From my point of view, the figure of 500,000 pounds is very reasonable no matter what." At this moment, not only was Annie's heart strange, but Mulan's heart was also extremely strange.Because, she didn't even know what Mu Xiuzhen brought back? So, she naturally didn't know why that thing was worth so much money! When the three people who pretended to be Huangji antique shop came to the door, although Mulan once vaguely stretched out five fingers.But she never imagined that five fingers could represent half a million pounds! Therefore, even Mulanhua, who is as alert as she is, was stunned for a while, not knowing how to express herself. She just looked at Zhu Ying, and Zhu Ying hurriedly said, "You agree?" Magnolia hesitated for a moment, then said, "I—" But Zhu Ying didn't wait for her to finish, and immediately interrupted her, saying: "If you agree, I will write you a check immediately. Do you prefer a check from a local bank or a bank from another place?" Magnolia knew, in terms of the strength of the Mafia, half a million pounds.It's nothing, she also knows that if she wants more.Zhu Ying would also agree. However, the problem now is not money! Magnolia is by no means a greedy person. Although the figure of half a million pounds is large, it will definitely not tempt her. Now, she wonders what is that thing that is worth so much money! Magnolia took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Mr. Zhu, I have already told you, I know what it is, I believe not many people know this!" Zhu Ying was stunned for a while, then he said, "If the price you want exceeds 500,000 pounds, then I must ask for instructions, because the limit I can pay is 500,000 pounds." Magnolia nodded and said, "Very well, you can ask your headquarters for instructions." Shiying hurriedly said: "Miss Lanhua, why bother? If the matter can be resolved here, wouldn't it be great, and there is no need for extra complications!" Mulanhua looked at Zhu Yingsheng for a while, and then said: "You know who I am, and you are very careful with your words. Mr. Zhu, in your speech, you never mentioned your identity at all, but who are you? You and I both understand that if that thing helps your criminal operations, I will not accept more money, do you understand?" Zhu Ying said: "Of course, I understand." Magnolia said: "So, if you want me to accept the number you proposed, then the proviso is that I want to know your entire plan of action regarding that thing!" Zhu Ying frowned and sighed. After a while he said: "That is really embarrassing!" Magnolia sneered, and said, "It's not difficult at all. If you don't want to, then let's forget about it. Anyway, I have this self-confidence, and I will definitely be able to recover the lost property." Magnolia spoke very slowly and calmly! Zhu Ying scratched her head and said, "Miss Lanhua, I'm really sorry. If you insist on your conditions, I must ask for instructions. I will definitely give you an answer within 24 hours." Magnolia said: "Okay, I don't care about twenty-four hours." Magnolia turned around and waved to Anne, and they came to the door together. The door opened automatically, and Zhu Ying followed behind them and sent them out.Zhu Ying went all the way to the elevator door. He bowed like he was, and was about to step back, but was pulled by Mulanhua, who pulled him in unexpectedly. Magnolia pulled into Zhu Ying.Sneered: "Mr. Zhu, in terms of politeness, you should at least send us off the elevator!" Zhu Ying smiled wryly, and hurriedly said, "Yes! Yes!" The elevator descended, and in a short while, stepped out of the elevator, and was already in that room. When the door was opened, it was the lobby of Hongyun Building.Ordinary people go in and out of the lobby, never dreaming that there is such a universe on the top floor! As soon as Magnolia came out of the hall and crossed the road with Annie, she made a phone call in a shop. As soon as the call connected to the police station and Gao Xiang's office, she heard Gao Xiang's voice. Magnolia said only one sentence, "Gao Xiang, come to my house!" Gao Xiang also held back what he was going to say.Just promised. Half an hour later, when Mulanhua and Annie returned home, Gao Xiang was already waiting for them in the living room.When Gao Xiang saw Magnolia, he asked, "How do you know I'm out of danger?" Before Magnolia opened her mouth, Annie had already briefly recounted what had happened. She kept talking almost non-stop. Gao Xiang and Magnolia didn't even have time to interrupt! After Annie finished speaking, Mulanhua smiled and said, "Annie, you should let Gao Xiang talk about his experience first, because what happened to him happened first, and what happened to us happened later!" Annie laughed and said, "500,000 pounds, Sister Lanhua, I can't help but tell Brother Gao Xiang the news first!" Gao Xiang stroked Annie's hair and said, "I arrived one step earlier than you guys. When I arrived, Magic Xiaogu was dead, and Yun Sheng—I didn't know his name until now, his white hair, It was very easy to identify, he and two other people were about to leave, and I was held hostage by them to leave the house through the back door." "At that time, they didn't know who you were?" "I don't know, but I know I'm a police officer. I was taken into the car, they blindfolded me, and then took me to a building until I was suddenly released." "You don't know where that is?" Magnolia asked. "I don't know. But before I left, I seemed to hear Yun Sheng's voice, and he objected to letting me go. But he doesn't seem to be able to command other people." Gao Xiang said with a frown. Mulan Huaguo was stunned and said, "Did you hear Yun Sheng's voice?" Annie also hurriedly asked, "When did that happen?" Gao Xiang said: "Yes, just when I left, about half an hour ago, I heard Yun Sheng's voice." Mulanhua and Annie looked at each other, and Annie said: "Sister Lanhua, Zhu Ying is lying to us. He said that Yunsheng has already brought that thing and returned to Europe, and there is nothing he can do!" Gao Xiang raised his eyebrows: " Why did he lie to you?" "It's very simple." Magnolia replied immediately, "He would rather pay half a million pounds to get that thing. So he has to tell us that the thing is no longer in this city!" Annie hurriedly said, "So we—" Gao Xiang didn't wait for Annie to finish, and immediately picked up, saying: "We would rather not have the half a million pounds, but want that thing! Lanhua, guess where that thing is hidden?" Magnolia frowned tightly, and after about half a minute, she said: "I think it's useless for them to stay in this city after they got that thing, they must be taken away from this city, so we can't let them Take things away, Gao Xiang, checks at airports and docks in various places must be strengthened, and they must be conducted openly, so that they dare not take things away for the time being." After Gao Xiang waited for Magnolia to finish speaking, he immediately pressed the button of the telephone and issued a series of orders. Then, Gao Xiang raised his head and said, "Let's go and steal that thing back." Magnolia laughed and said, "It's taken back, Gao Xiang!" Annie also hurriedly said: "Yes, Brother Gao Xiang, that is our property!" Magnolia said: "We work at night, Gao Xiang, we will meet in the side alley of Hongyun Building at eleven o'clock in the evening, then, you have to bring the tools you use, I am going to climb up to the top floor from the window on the next floor , instead of going through the special elevator, do you have a better plan?" Gao Xiang said: "Naturally, that is the best plan." Gao Xiang broke up with Mulanhua and Annie and went straight to the office. At eleven o'clock in the evening, the bustling business district during the day became very deserted, when Magnolia and Annie turned into the alley.Gao Xiang was already waiting there. Gao Xiang raised a key in Yang's hand, and said: "I have taken the key of the side door. The main door and the side door are locked after ten o'clock in the evening, and there are special guards." "Where's the guard?" Magnolia asked. "It has been taken away by the police." Gao Xiang replied. Mulan nodded, and the three of them entered the Hongyun Building together through the side door. The main lights had already been turned off, and the lobby looked very dark. Before Mulan, Gao Xiang, and Annie arrived at the elevator, Mulan whispered: "Annie, Gao Xiang and I will go up, you are downstairs, find a place to hide, and pay attention to the movement of the room next to the special elevator."
