Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Strange Woman

However, the facts were completely beyond my expectation. When I could see her clearly at a glance, I involuntarily stood up from the sofa——she is a woman who needs to be treated with extreme courtesy! Her age, hard to estimate, was around twenty-five.There was no makeup on her face at all, her complexion was fair, and her figure was elegant. She was wearing a sapphire blue silk-cotton gown, which was even more luxurious and elegant. She came to me lightly, stretched out her hand, and said, "Please sit down." At that moment, I just felt strange that her face and demeanor were so similar to Shi Ju's!They are so similar that they are like two sisters, they just stunned me.

But of course I was just surprised in my heart, and didn't continue to think about it.Because, a girl who has a deep knowledge of the drum language of Kham people in Tibet seems to have nothing to do with a girl who grew up in Kham and a woman in the city. As soon as she showed up, I already felt that there were more chances of failure than success in my trip!Because such an opponent is the most difficult opponent to deal with!As soon as I sat down, she also sat down generously and said, "Mr. Wei, those two friends who invited you, do you want to send someone to carry them back?"

I smiled and said, "No need, they will be back soon!" She suddenly sighed, and said: "Mr. Wei, you are really a rare talent, and the god of death said the same. He ordered me to put you to death at no cost!" With a calm expression on my face, I said, "You might as well answer him for me and say that I also want to pay a little price and ask him to go to hell—or maybe even heaven—to take a trip." The beautiful woman smiled and said: "Everyone can have his own wish, even if that wish is too extravagant. But Mr. Wei, you are doomed this time!" I have known for a long time that I lose more than I win, but I still have to turn around the disadvantage by surprise. As soon as she said the words, I leaned forward and grabbed her arm with my left hand.

My action came so suddenly, so fast, in a flash, I saw a look of extreme surprise flashing across her face, to be honest, I couldn't bear to do it, but immediately, I have already held her arm, and at the same time, I have aimed the gun at her slender waist. As soon as I grabbed her, I heard a slight "slap" from behind, and then, a crystal chandelier shattered and fell down. I didn't look back, because I could tell that it was an emergency, and I turned the muzzle up and shot a sideways shot.If I hadn't acted decisively and immediately rushed forward to grab the woman, it wouldn't be the crystal chandelier that broke, but my head!

The terrified expression on the beautiful woman's face was quickly put away, and when the muzzle of my gun was pressed against her slender waist, she actually smiled sweetly and said, "Mr. Wei, you In this way, it is unreasonable to be a gentleman!" I whimpered at the broken crystal chandelier, and said, "Miss Li, is this the demeanor of a gentleman?" She smiled again, and shouted: "Mr. Huang, you don't have to point your gun at him anymore, he played a high chess game, and we are at a disadvantage for the time being!" What she said was still so funny!

Then, I saw a tall figure striding forward, I took a closer look, and couldn't help but turn pale with shock, that person was none other than Huang Jun! He was holding a pistol in his hand with a long silencer on the muzzle. It was obvious that he fired the shot just now!How could this young man, all of a sudden, have become an accomplice of Death?Huang Jun came to stand in front of me and said, "Mr. Wei, I have something to discuss with you. Can we talk alone?" "No," I shook my head, controlling that beautiful woman is the guarantee of my life, of course I will not let her go easily!Because the current situation I am in is really too dangerous.

A look of embarrassment appeared on Huang Jun's face, and I said bluntly: "Mr. Huang, when I was on the desert island, I thought you were a shameless person, but on your face, there is a look of disdain." .Now, as expected, I still have some insight! I didn’t admit the wrong person!” Huang Jun looked at me angrily. He looked at me for a long time, then gradually calmed down, and said: "Mr. Wei, I will talk to you alone, it will be of great benefit to you!" I sneered, and said: "Benefits? Including just now The shot that nearly shot me?" Huang Jun's thick eyebrows kept twitching, and after a while, he said: "Mr. Wei, if you don't believe me, I will force you to tell someone and tell me!" My eyes never left his face. , I found another extremely sincere desire in his face.It is absolutely reliable to study the changes in a person's heart from his face. Sherlock Holmes described by Conan Doyle even tracks his thoughts according to the expression of his assistant, Dr. Watson!

Judging from Huang Jun's expression at this time, I think it is really necessary to listen to his words, because I feel that his words are credible. I thought about it, and said: "Mr. Huang, in this house, do you think we can have a private conversation?" The beautiful woman interjected at this moment: "Mr. Wei, you can leave this room. " "Of course," I immediately gave her a hard look: "You can also regain your freedom?" "Mr. Wei, don't be too confident!" She suddenly said in a very fast tone. At the same time, she raised her right hand and poked at the "Fenshui Point" on my abdomen. Thinking that she was also a master, I felt numbness in my abdomen, I couldn't help but bent down, and just as I bent down, I was hit hard again on the back of the neck.

That blow made my arms go numb for a while, and stars shot out in front of my eyes. Not only did she let go, but the pistol in my hand also "slapped" onto the carpet! The pistol just fell to the ground.There was another "bang" in the chest.The strength of this palm is far beyond my expectation, if I hadn't been under the supervision of a famous teacher since I was a child, this palm would have caused me to suffer severe internal injuries! However, Rao is the skill in my body, which naturally produced the power to resist. This palm of hers still made my eyes black, and I fell backwards and fell out.

Fortunately, the carpet in the living room was very thick, and although I fell hard, I was not hurt. When I sat down on the ground and looked up, she was already sitting leisurely on the sofa.Who would have thought that such a beautiful young woman would have knocked down a man like me just now? With the toes of her embroidered shoes, she flicked the pistol that fell on the ground, and said, "Mr. Wei, you can still pick it up and use it against me." I took a breath and had nothing to say.Huang Jun suddenly said: "Master Uncle, the three rings you just did are the master's unique skill 'Three strokes of the tiger'?"

She nodded slightly, and Huang Jun's face showed a look of extreme admiration. As soon as I heard Huang Jun call her uncle, I couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then I scolded "Damn" a few times!Of course, that was scolding myself, why would I not take precautions at all after knowing her name is Liming Mei!Because of Liming Mei's name, there was a period when it was very famous, and I also admired her in the past. The name Li Mingmei, I felt a little familiar when I first saw it, but I never thought that this Li Mingmei was famous all over the world more than ten years ago, making people in the martial arts, regardless of black or white, Everyone was overshadowed by him, his martial arts attainments were so high that he was the youngest among the elders of the Northern Taiji Sect who was still above the head of the Northern Taiji Sect! At that time, she was just nineteen or twenty years old, she was everywhere, and she was invincible. I knew she had been to Shanghai. The leader of the 72nd Party of the underworld, after calmly escaped from the siege of hundreds of people, has disappeared. I always thought it was a pity about this incident. At that time, I was young and wanted to learn from her. As a result, I am very fortunate.I have never played against her, but I am also sorry.Because Li Mingmei seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and her whereabouts could not be found no matter what. Unexpectedly, after thirteen years, I actually met her, and it was on such an occasion! I gathered myself together, and was not in a hurry to stand up, and said, "Miss Li, you have won." Li Mingmei still had a faint smile on her face, and said: "It's nothing, Mr. Wei, the catch you caught me by surprise just now is the handed down kung fu of Yangzhou mad beggar Jin Er, I'm afraid you are the only one in this world. A person can do this skill!" Although I lost in her hands.And the defeat was so embarrassing, but after hearing what he said, I couldn't help but feel a little proud, and said: "Miss Li is indeed very knowledgeable." Li Mingmei smiled and said: "My nephew, I have a few words to tell you, you can talk to him alone!" She stretched a little while she said, and walked upstairs. The pistol, still lying on the carpet, a thought flashed through my mind: If I suddenly rushed over, grabbed the gun, and shot her in the back... But I just thought about it and didn't want to do it .Huang Jun had already approached, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Wei, let's go to the garden." I stood up and kept thinking, why did Li Mingmei, who was known as a hero thirteen years ago, serve the god of death, and why did Huang Jun come here?I looked at my watch, it was almost seven o'clock, I really didn't have any more time to discuss with Huang Jun. "Mr. Huang," I said coldly, "If there is nothing important, I want to leave." "Of course there is!" His face was very serious, and he almost whispered to me: "Now, only I know, and only I know, that map, Shi Ju is entrusted to you!" I was taken aback suddenly and looked at him intently. "Let's go to the garden, shall we? Mr. Wei, you should trust me." His expression was extremely sincere. After thinking about it for a short time, I followed him to the garden. We stood in the center of the grass. From a long window on the second floor, I could see Li Mingmei pacing up and down. "Mr. Huang, you just said that only you know, what do you mean?" I asked first. "That means that I and them are not in the same group. It is completely different from what you think. Do you think my marksmanship is really that bad?" He and I took a few steps slowly, and then whispered into my ear Answer in a low voice. I knew he was referring to the thing that just hit the chandelier, and asked, "What do you want now?" "The map," his voice was low, but his meaning was very firm: "Where is it, give it to me!" I didn't deny it just now, it's tantamount to acquiescing, but I still asked: "How do you know that the map is in my hand?" Huang Jun hurriedly said: "It's very simple. On the deserted island, I gave the map to Shiju, later, you and Shiju boarded the "Reaper", and you left, it must be Shiju who gave you the map." "You deduced well," I nodded, "but you have already given the map to Shi Ju, why do you want to get it back?" "The situation is different now. I want that map to redeem a person from the god of death?" Huang Jun said. "Mr. Huang, do you know that the map is related to a large sum of 300 million US dollars?" I said. "Of course I know!" He gradually blushed and waved his hands, "But the wealth of the whole world is not as important to me as he alone. Mr. Wei, you hand over the map, for you, for you I have benefits, and you are not a greedy person, and, to be honest, that map—” He stopped suddenly, paused, and then changed his words: “Hurry up and hand it over to me.” !" I quickly thought about the intricate relationship between him, Shi Ju, Li Mingmei, the map, and "Reaper", and soon I shook my head and said, "No, since Shi Ju handed over the map to If you give it to me, I must send it to the place she designated, and I can't give it to you!" Huang Jun's face suddenly became so pale that even I couldn't help worrying about him.He wobbled and almost fell down on the grass, I didn't wait for him to speak, and said again: "I still have a lot to ask you, why did the head of the Northern Taiji sect order Shi Ju to clean up the sect, and why did Liming Mei come here?" In the lair of death, why is that map related to such a huge fortune..." Huang Jun didn't wait for me to finish, and suddenly called out: "Don't ask!" Then, he lowered his voice again, and said: "All this, the inside story is complicated, I can't finish it in a few words, Mr. Wei, I beg you..." "Brother!" I reached out and patted his shoulder, "Don't think about it, I will never promise you!" His complexion was even uglier than that of a prisoner who had just heard the judge's death sentence, and he said, "You... really don't want to save me?" I answered him in a more resolute tone: "I saved you at the beginning because I regarded you as a bloody and promising young man, but now I don't save you anymore!" Huang Jun hurriedly said: "Mr. Forget, you saved me, and you let yourself go!" I sneered and said: "Brother, you are too naive, no matter what, the 'Death' will never let me go, and if I hand over the map to you, your junior sister's life will be in danger , before the map is obtained, the 'Reaper' may think of various ways to torture Shi Ju, but she will not die!" Huang Jun quickly said: "In any case, I can believe that Shi Ju's life will never be a problem." I immediately asked: "Why?" Huang Jun paused and said: "Don't ask why. Among them, you don't understand the entanglement of grievances for more than ten years. You can hand over the map quickly. If my uncle knows that the map is in your hands Now, she won't be so polite to you!" I shrugged and said: "She is not polite to me now! I have given the map to a lawyer. Once I die, he can open the map and look at it, and then contact the relevant parties, brother , I believe you must be related to the treasures of the German Nazis or the Japanese Imperial Army during the Second World War, is it Rommel's treasure, or the treasure of Fufumi Yamashita, the Tiger of Malaya?" "It's Rommel—" He only said three words, and didn't go any further. However, just these three words are enough, it is the treasure of the desert fox Rommel!No wonder the numbers are so huge! In the early years, I did travel to many places, collecting information everywhere, specializing in the study of treasures that have not been excavated from ancient times to the present.This is not "wealth obsession", because there is indeed an unknown amount of wealth in the world, which is buried in the seabed or underground. One person, as long as he gets a very small part of it, he can become the world's richest man! And among them, various activities including exploration and research on history are exactly my hobby. Since the end of World War II, the two most fascinating treasures are the two "fox" and "tiger".Because of that "tiger" treasure, I also had a strange experience, but because it is not within the scope of this article, I will not mention it. And the treasures of Rommel the Desert Fox are the trophies he plundered Africa, including gold bars, gold bricks, precious metals, jewelry, diamonds, etc. The total value is estimated to be as large as 300 million US dollars! Regarding the history of this batch of treasures, I would like to introduce them in more detail.In the autumn of 1942, Hitler's African Corps, which had been rampant in North Africa, had begun to lose its advantage. At that time, the coalition forces led by British Field Marshal Montgomery defeated the German army in a row. The African Corps led by Rommel retreated from Egypt and fled to Libya, and the headquarters of the Corps moved to the port of Bizerte in Tunisia. Coincidentally, the U.S. troops led by Eisenhower landed from Algeria again, and Hitler's elite African troops were already in a disadvantageous position of being annihilated. At this time, it was May 1943. At this time, Hitler issued a secret order to Rommel, ordering him to overcome all difficulties, and must transport the gold and treasures carried by the African Corps to a reliable place, otherwise, they would be destroyed.According to the intelligence of the coalition forces investigating the ships coming and going in the port of Bizerte, it was discovered that a naval ship with an unknown mission, but equipped with extremely strong artillery, secretly left the port of Bizerte, broke through the sea blockade of the coalition forces, and sailed to northern Italy. Port Spachel. And according to the intelligence of the coalition forces, on October 18, 1943, before dawn, a small ship, after receiving some "cargo" from the ship that sailed from the port of Bizerte, went to Drove away from Spacher, never heard of whereabouts. And when Hitler's African Corps was defeated, the batch of gold bars and treasures were not found, and, for a long time, those treasures were like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no trace to be found, so there is reason to believe that it was the ship Small boats are used to hide treasures. The brief history I have described above are all based on facts and are by no means fabricated.In fact, there have been many people who went to Italy to discover these treasures, but to no avail. I will all about Rommel's treasure.After reviewing it quickly, my heart couldn't help beating very hard. Huang Jun sighed and said, "Mr. Wei, are you really not willing?" I raised my head: "I've told you more than once!" As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly pushed towards Huang Jun. Huang Jun was caught off guard and staggered by my push. But I already took advantage of this opportunity, turned outwards, rushed out, came to the foot of the wall, raised my breath, and jumped out of the wall. However, as soon as my feet touched the ground, I saw figures flashing in succession, and four people surrounded me. I knew a long time ago that it would never be so easy to get out, and I also expected that, considering Li Mingmei's talent, she should have expected that I would take this opportunity to jump out of the fence.So, as soon as I jumped out of the fence, four people rushed towards me from outside the door. It was as expected. I touched the ground with my toes, turned around quickly, and slapped four palms in succession. Those four people have all been blocked! At this moment, I only heard Huang Jun shouting behind me, shouting: "Mr. Wei, you will regret it!" I didn't even turn my head back. After a few ups and downs in a row, I was already on the road, and then I looked back. I saw Li Mingmei's delicate body shaking, and she had already slipped out of the bungalow. I knew that even without other helpers, I would not be her opponent. When I was at a loss, a sound of a motorcycle came from far and near. I took a closer look and couldn't help being overjoyed. A motorcycle was approaching at a high speed, and I recognized that it was my friend in the police circle—Officer Gleason. I raised my hand and called out his name. Gleason seemed surprised that I would be here, he stopped the car, at this time, Li Mingmei had already come to him.There was an expression of extreme frustration on her face. "Gleason," I said straight to the point, "take me downtown." "Okay! But this lady..." He glanced at Li Mingmei, and Li Mingmei immediately said, "It doesn't matter, Wesley and I are close friends, and we will meet again soon." Naturally, I could hear the meaning of Li Mingmei's words, smiled and said: "Yes, we will see you again soon!" Gleason obviously had no idea what we were talking about.And no matter how many thugs Li Mingmei has under her command, I don't think she would dare to openly make an enemy of the police. She watched me step on the back seat of the motorcycle and drive away. Along the way, I never mentioned to Grissom what I had just escaped from death. It's not that I don't want to tell the police what I found, but I think there are still some twists and turns. Before I figure it out, I definitely don't want to alert the police. At the same time, I decided not to rely on the assistance of the police, but to use my own strength to fight against these Tianzi No. 1 gangsters first. After driving to the city, I returned to my apartment, and as soon as I entered the door, I found that my clothes were in a mess and had obviously been searched.I made a phone call and told my manager to send the plane tickets. I didn't bother to sort out the messed up items, so I took out the meat and put them on my body. The two nylon bags that Shiju gave me . Because one of the two nylon bags had been opened by "Reaper", when I took it out, the pictures of Shiju fell out. I bent down and picked them up one by one. The Shiju in the photo is smiling so sweetly, as beautiful as a famous orchid that is about to bloom, but it is not vulgar. Put the photos back into the nylon bag, and I opened another nylon bag, which was carefully wrapped in moisture-proof paper. There were as many as seven or eight layers, and I unwrapped it layer by layer. . The piece of cloth was irregular, and judging from the situation, it looked like the hem of a shirt had been torn off in a hurry.And on the cloth, a crude map was drawn. I never expected that the map of Rommel's treasure was so simple! But this is the only way to make people believe in the authenticity of this map. I can tell at a glance that the map is drawn on the French island of Corsica near Italy. Of course, this map may have been drawn hastily, or without being discovered, so the shape of Corsica is almost not correct, but because next to it, there is A boot-shaped shape, so anyone with a little knowledge of world geography can tell that it is Napoleon's hometown. On the map, there are not many words, only a black dot between Bascia.Next to the black dot, there is a German word, translated into Chinese, which means "Heaven is here".Of course, that refers to the treasure here. Because, if anyone obtains these treasures, there is no need to wait for death at all, and they can live in "paradise" during their lifetime.It's just such a crude map, I don't understand why "Reaper" takes it so seriously! Because, on the map, there is no exact indication of where the treasure is hidden! But when I turned it over and looked at it again, I knew that this map was indeed extremely important. On the back of the cloth, there is a large section of text copied in extremely scribbled handwriting, the handwriting is already very blurred, and the text is in German. I read it briefly, it looks like a logbook, and I don’t need to read it carefully. , My manager has already sent the ticket, I quickly wrapped this piece of cloth with moisture-proof paper, and hid it in a special interlayer of my trousers. I hurriedly changed my clothes, and my manager drove me to the airport, where I waited only ten minutes longer before boarding the passenger plane to Singapore. On the plane, I looked around and saw that there was no suspicious person, so I relaxed, stretched my legs comfortably, and prepared to enjoy the peace for a long time, but just before the plane was about to take off, my Next to me, suddenly someone called me! I had expected that after Li Mingmei suffered an unexpected failure, she would definitely not let it go. So, on the way to the airport, at the airport, I carefully observed the people around me, but I didn't find any suspicious signs.When I got on the plane, I looked around, front, back, left, and right. In front of me were two elderly Europeans, and behind me was a young couple who frequently waved out the window. Next to me, there was a Pakistani man with a beard wrapped around his head. Obviously, there was no one following me. However, just when I was complacent, the bearded Pakistani man next to me suddenly With a deep, sexy female voice, in the most standard Chinese mandarin, she whispered: "Mr. Wei!" To be honest, I was really taken aback by "him". When I turned around, I heard "him" greet the stewardess in an extremely thick voice. He took a breath of air: That's Li Mingmei!Not only was she masquerading as a man, but she was also a dark, pensive Pakistani!This makes me, who is also proficient in makeup, have to admire it very much! Because, when I first entered the arena, it was this "Pakistani" who asked me for directions, but I didn't see it at all at the time! I gathered myself together, and when she finished chatting with the air team, I also whispered: "Miss Li, if I tear off your beard, the passengers on the plane will probably have a good show!" Li Mingmei chuckled softly, and said, "You won't, Mr. Wei, you don't have makeup, that's beyond my expectation." I snorted and said, "I'm going to Singapore, why do I have to put on makeup?" Li Mingmei gave a "tsk", and said in a thick voice: "You are too unfriendly!" I tried my best to think why Liming Mei wanted to go to Singapore. Huang Jun explained to her that the map was on my body, so she followed me relentlessly? While I was in the ups and downs of thoughts, the plane had already risen to the sky, and I also decided to deal with her in a consistent and adaptable way. She held her head up, and her expression was completely that of a man. The make-up technique is exquisite, it is a matter of technology, but she disguised herself as a Pakistani man with such a resemblance, this is already within the scope of art! The two of us didn't talk for a while, then I sighed and said: "Thinking of the North Taiji Gate, which has always been famous for its strictness and integrity, there is a character like Miss Li!" When Li Mingmei heard it, she suddenly burst into a loud "haha" laugh. The laughter was extremely rough and also contained extreme indignation, which attracted all the passengers on the plane to look at her. Of course, no one but me would have known that the one laughing so impolitely was a young woman so beautiful that I could hear her swearing in Pakistani dialect: "May Allah be upon him! " "Who?" I couldn't help but wonder.She lowered her voice, and said, "It's that beast who pretends to be a chivalrous man and seeks fame." I asked, "You mean your head?" She whispered, "That's right!" She has an exquisite makeup on her face, but she still can't hide her excited expression!It seems that the head of the Northern Taiji Sect has wronged her a lot, or severely persecuted her. I had already expected that Liming Mei would become the host of a lair of "Reaper", and there must be extremely tortuous reasons for it.I want to understand this reason, which is also the reason why I am reluctant to tell my old friend Grissom what happened to me for the time being——If I tell it, Grisson can do a great job, This is just to repay him for saving me. Now, I heard her swearing fiercely at the head of the Northern Taiji Sect, moreover, I couldn't help but be very surprised that someone as calm and experienced as her had such an agitated expression on her face. When I was more than ten years old, I followed the master and met the head of the Northern Taiji Sect. He is a very upright middle-aged man, even if it is not because of his world-wide reputation as a chivalrous man, meeting him will make people awe-inspiring.But Li Mingmei called him a "beast"! "Miss Li," I asked in a low voice, "Is that why you hate your boss so much, is that why you associate with the God of Death?" "It can be said to be yes, or it can be said to be no." She replied lazily, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "I want to see him die in my hands, but I don't know where he is, not even Huang Jun." Willing to say it!" At this point, he suddenly paused again, and said: "Mr. Wei, I have talked too much, we are enemies after all!" In just a few minutes, she spoke in three different tones. I can imagine that since Huang Jun has never told her where the head of the Northern Taiji Sect has lived in seclusion for more than ten years, Then that map is with me, of course he won't mention it. Huang Jun is indeed a tough guy, I thought, but what does Li Mingmei mean by going to Singapore with me?After thinking about it for a while, I asked her straight to the point. She smiled and said, "Mr. Wei, then why did you go to Singapore?" "Me? I'm here to save people." I said bluntly, and took out Shi Ju's photo from my pocket, "She is what I want to save, do you know her?" Li Mingmei suddenly stretched out her hand out of composure , in my hand, grab the photo of Shiju. Her hands were trembling slightly, her eyes stayed on the photo, and the look in her eyes was so indescribable, it took her a while to regain her composure, she raised her head and asked: "The girl in the hands of the god of death, just... ...Is that her?" "It's her!" "Then don't worry, I know the temper of God of Death, if she is willing to hand over the map, God of Death will not kill her." Li Mingmei tried her best to pretend to be calm. From the way she stared at Shiju's photo just now, I can already predict that there must be an extremely unusual relationship between her and Shiju, and her concern for Shiju's safety may be more than mine! This is an excellent opportunity for me. If I can use a clever method to get Li Mingmei to participate in the rescue of Shi Ju, my chances of success will naturally increase greatly! I thought for a while, and then said: "I have a different opinion from yours, because that girl—her name is Shi Ju—has already given that map to another person!" In order to achieve my trick, so that Li Mingmei can assist me in rescuing Shi Ju, so I deliberately said in a calm tone.Sure enough, Li Mingmei's body trembled suddenly, and the cup of coffee in her hand also spilled out. The stewardess hurriedly came to wipe it for her. She stayed there for a long time before saying, "I left it to you?" If I admit that the map has already been given to me by Shiju, it will certainly increase the danger for myself, but it will be much smoother for rescuing Shiju. So I answered without hesitation: "Yes!" Li Mingmei leaned on the back of the sofa, closed her eyes, and didn't say a word. I called her in a low voice, but she didn't answer.I just had to look out the window.Until the plane landed, Liming Mei still didn't say a word. When the two of us stepped out of the plane one after another, she suddenly held my hand and said, "Mr. Wei, I need your help with something." I immediately said, "Okay, Shiju is yours?" people?" She stepped out of the plane door, waved to the people at the airport, and said in a low voice, "I'll talk about it later, can you promise to help me?" I bent slightly and said, "Of course I agree." She got off the plane quickly, and I lost her track not long after, but I knew that it would not be long before I would see her again, and I felt extremely happy, because she asked me to help me. Exactly what I asked her to help with, and now she's begging me instead! I am even more convinced that the relationship between her and Shiju is not unusual, and I just took advantage of the unclear relationship between her and Shiju to make her beg me instead. I called a taxi and came to a hotel. The hotel was opened by one of my uncles. It has a very long history in Singapore. After several renovations, it has become a hotel with first-class equipment. Along the way, I didn't think about whether anyone was following me. When I arrived at the hotel, I took a shower and slept. I didn't wake up until twelve o'clock at noon and rang the bell to call someone. I want a hearty breakfast.The waiter handed me another piece of paper. It was written in very delicate handwriting. There was no name for the payment, but it just said: "Don't go out. I'll see you at 1:00 in the afternoon." I knew that the note was sent by Li Mingmei, and I was not surprised at all when she found out that I was staying in the hotel, because when I got out of the airport, I found someone following me. At one o'clock, Liming Mei came on time.She was wearing a coat and dressed like a noble lady, but her complexion was very ugly. As soon as she sat down on the sofa, she cut straight to the point and said, "Mr. Wei, I beg you to hand over the map to me." come out." "No," I replied bluntly, "We can use other methods to rescue Shi Ju." "Shiju?" She seemed to be dreaming, "Is her name Shiju?" "Yes, I ask again, who is she to you?" "She...she..." Li Mingmei said the word "she" two times in a row, and suddenly shed tears.Such a heroine with peerless martial arts and intelligence burst into tears. She didn't cry for a long time, then she raised her head and said, "Mr. Wei, if you also want to save her—I think so—then you should accept my method and hand over the map!" To be honest, my mood at the time was also very contradictory.但是我知道，我如果因为献图而救出了石菊的话，石菊是一定不会原谅我的，否则的话，在“死神号”游艇之上，她就不必冒著万险，把地图转交给我了。我要走一著险棋，要硬将石菊，从“死神”的手中救出来！ 因此，我只是略一考虑，便仍然道：“黎小姐，你，我，我们两个人，难道还不能在'死神'手中，救出一个人来么？” 黎明玫望了我半晌，道：“难道你愿意拿她的性命，去作赌博？” 我的心头，又为之震了一震，黎明玫的话，的确是言简意赅。我坚决不答应交出地图，严格来说，是一个极其自私的主意。 因为我不想石菊恢复了自由之后而恨我，骂我是懦夫！而就是为了这一点，要拿石菊的性命去作赌博，我岂不是自私之极？ 黎明玫见我半晌不语，轻轻地以她的纤手，放在我的手背上，柔声道：“卫先生，请相信我，不论你怎样救她出险，但是绝不及我想救她的心情，来得迫切，因为，我……我是她的母亲！” 我一听黎明玫如此说法，心中不禁大是惊讶。 我虽然早已料到，黎明玫和石菊之间，有著不寻常的关系，但是我只是猜想她们可能是姐妹，却未曾料到，她们竟是母女！ 我呆了一呆，道：“你……是她母亲？可是你是那么地年轻！” “唉──”黎明玫幽幽地叹了一口气，道：“世上只有一个人知道我有一个女儿，连石菊也不知道她有我这样的一个母亲，我是在十七岁那年生她的，今年她也应该是十七岁了！” 她伸手摸了摸自己的额角，道：“我也老了。” 我连忙道：“你一点也不老！”这绝不是阿谀之词，事实上，黎明玫的确一点也不老，非但不老，而且正像是一朵开了一大半的花朵一样，是一个美丽的女人最美丽的时刻。 “谢谢你，卫先生，如今，你应该接受我的劝告了吧！”她充满了希望地说。 我的心情斗争得很厉害，可是，纵使我能够克服自私心的话，我也不信在地图交到了“死神”的手中之后，石菊便能恢复自由了。 因此，我像是一个铁石心肠也似的人般地道：“不，我不同意你的办法。” 黎明玫眼中滴下了两颗老大的眼泪来，我情不自禁地俯下身去，在她额上，轻轻地吻了一下，道：“黎小姐，我们会将她救出来的！” 黎明玫并没有甚么反应，只是木然半晌，才道：“死神号在下午六时，可以到达新加坡。” 我立即追问：“停在甚么地方？我们要在'死神'一上岸时，便出手救人！” 黎明玫自顾自地道：“靠码头的并不是'死神号'，而是在近港口处，转换的另一艘游艇，四点半，我在酒店门口等你，那时，我将是一个苦力，你也最好化装一下。”我点了点头，道：“可以，我可以化装成一个小商人，是雇了苦力去挑货物的。” 这是最好不过的办法了，因为在码头里出现，就只有装成苦力和商人，到那里起货，才不启人疑窦。 黎明玫表示同意，站起了身来，我为她披上了大衣，她走到门口，忽然回过头来，问我：“你刚才为甚么吻我的额角？” 我呆了一呆，显得极其尴尬，对于刚才我为甚么会有这样的行动，连我自己，也说不出所以然来。她并没有等我的回答，就翩然而出，我想出声将她叫住，但终于未曾开口。
