Consul Han reacted the fastest. After seeing his daughter appear, he immediately called her, then ran over and hugged her. Then he saw Zhang Pin and Carter following Xiurong.
"Sir Zhang, thank you for the favor I owe you."
Consul Han opened his mouth, tears suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he solemnly said to Zhang Pin.
Just now they were still regretting the failure of the investigation bureau's operation. Who would have thought that when they turned around, Zhang Pin had already brought everyone back.
Consul Han had one sentence left unsaid. If Zhang Pin had not appeared in time, he might have made a mistake.
Of course he couldn't come up with 70 million US dollars himself.
“I remember it.”
Zhang Pin was not too polite to thank Consul Han.
Although I don’t know if I will use this favor in the future, I can keep it for now.
“Hey everyone, Detective Carter is here to report!”
Just when everyone was stunned, Carter couldn't help but stand up and show off himself.
“By the way, this is Detective Carter from Luojishan Chengnan Branch. He was able to find Xiurong this time thanks to Detective Carter’s intelligence, and he also went deep into the tiger’s den to fight with the gangsters. That gave me the opportunity to rescue Xiurong."
After Zhang Pin greeted Consul Han, he immediately took the initiative to introduce Carter.
Hearing Zhang Pin’s introduction, Carter almost raised his tail to the sky.
"Of course, there is nothing that Detective Carter can't do in Luoji Mountain. It's a pity that the benefits of arresting those guys were taken away by the Chinatown Branch. This rescue mission deserves all the credit. It has to be mine.”
He was not modest at all. He started to allocate the credit directly in front of everyone in the Investigation Bureau.
"What are you talking about? The kidnappers have all been caught."
Hearing Carter's words, Warren couldn't stand still.
Although he himself didn't care much about rescuing Xiurong, these people killed two members of the investigation bureau's commandos. Of course, it was impossible for the investigation bureau not to avenge this.
Now that he heard that the kidnappers had been caught and the people had been sent back, he had nothing to do but be embarrassed by staying here, so he was ready to find trouble with the kidnappers.
"I don't know about that. In order to send this little girl back as soon as possible, I did not participate in the arrest."
Although Carter is crazy, he knows how to measure things.
His speech was impeccable.
Actually, he is not stupid. Judging from the actions of the thugs in Fuzhou Hotel trying to control him, he guessed that the explosion not far away must have been done by them.
At that time, the person who attacked him in the Fuzhou Hotel did not seem to have a leader, so Carter also suspected that the leader of the kidnapping case might have left long ago.
"Hey, who are you?"
After Warren and others got the news that the kidnapper was arrested, they did not stay any longer, but chose to leave one after another.
As soon as the crowd left, apart from some staff, there was only one white-haired man left in the consulate.
Carter quickly focused on the opponent.
Based on his many years of experience as a police officer, he always felt that the eyes of the other party looking at him were not very friendly.
"Ah, this is Thomas, my old friend for many years."
Consul Han heard Carter's inquiry and introduced the two of them.
"By the way, Sir Zhang, since you are here, we will have an exhibition of antique cultural relics here tomorrow. These things are all stolen goods collected by the criminals you captured on Hong Kong Island last time. How about You will also participate when the time comes.”
After his daughter came back, Consul Han immediately put aside his worries and started thinking about his own work.
“Okay, no problem.”
Zhang Pin nodded and agreed to Consul Han's request.
He had already taken leave anyway and completed the task on the first day he came. Naturally, he could arrange the rest of the time as he pleased.
"What's going on with you two, are you so suspicious? Also, Hongdou, forget it if you make a mistake while driving. Ah Hai, what are you doing? If I hadn't cut off the brake line of the truck in time, you would have been shot. Do you know? Why didn’t you open the parachute earlier?”
Yazhan was sitting on the trunk of the car with a painting tube in his hand, looking at Ahai and Hongdou with an annoyed look.
“Well, it’s nothing, maybe I’m under too much stress recently, so I’m hallucinating.”
Hongdou stopped the car first, and looked around guiltily. After finding no one there, she belatedly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and then looked at A Hai, who was in the passenger seat.
"What's the matter with you? Do you know how dangerous it was just now? I told you not to do it. I told you not to do it. You always don't listen. If something happens to you, what should I do? Wow. Wuwu——"
Hongdou was originally scolding Ah Hai angrily, but as he spoke, his eyes suddenly turned red, and then he threw himself into the other person's arms and started crying.
"Okay, okay, my dear little Hongdou, don't worry, this little thing is just a small scene. I was actually sure to leave just now, don't cry, it won't be pretty if you cry again."< br>
Ahai naturally knew that Hongdou cared about him, so he coaxed Hongdou into smiling with just a few words.
Even if there wasn't Yazhan next to her, with Hongdou's hot cheeks, there might have been some inappropriate scenes for children.
“Should I be under the car at this moment?”
Yazhan, who was sitting at the back of the car, saw the actions of the two people in front of him and suddenly spoke in disgust.
"No, no, no, you shouldn't be under the car, but you really should get down, bye!"
Hongdou was teased by Yazhan, but he realized that there were more here. one person.
She smiled and waved back to Yazhan, then suddenly stepped on the accelerator.
Buzz——
The sports car accelerated suddenly, and Yazhan, who was sitting on the trunk, fell back without checking.
Although he reacted very quickly, he quickly put his hands on the ground and landed firmly on the ground, but when he looked forward, he saw that the sports car had already run far away.
“Hey, you two are so heartless, do you want me to run back?”
Yazhan suddenly jumped up and down anxiously.
In the end, Hongdou reversed the car and came back to pick up Yazhan again.
The three are orphans who grew up together.
When he was a child, he was adopted by an old thief and taught him the skill of stealing. They usually rely on stealing to support themselves.
This time, the three of them have set their sights on a famous antique painting. They have already made an appointment with the buyer. As long as they get it, they can sell it for half a million US dollars.
"Hey, you two promise me that when we get the money, the three of us will stop, okay?"
Sitting in the car, Hongdou first looked at Ah Hai, and then turned to look at Ah Hai. occupy.
"No problem, our little princess has spoken, of course I will do it."
Ahai nodded readily.
“Okay, but if you stop, what are you going to do in the future?”
Yazhan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and then asked about another thing.
Although the three of them grew up together, Ahai and Hongdou like each other and are lovers.
Yazhan obviously knows that if the three of them stop cooperating in the future, then it will really be a bit of a hindrance for him to be with the two of them again.
"What are you thinking? Didn't the three of us agree a long time ago that we will be together forever?" The three of them grew up together, and Hongdou didn't know Yazhan's thoughts.
However, although she and Yazhan are not in love, they have been tied by family ties for so many years, and naturally they do not want the other person to leave alone.
"Hongdou and I have already discussed that we will have a son and a daughter in the future. The son will be called Xiaya and the daughter will be called Xiaodoudou. When the time comes, you will be responsible for raising the children for me."
"Go away, why isn't my son called Xihai?"
"Oh, don't argue, I hope we can find a peaceful place after we close the mountain."
Hongdou laughed and slapped After putting aside the banter between Ahai and Yazhan, they began to look forward to their future life.
"Oh, oh, don't talk about this now. It doesn't matter if I live in a shabby house by myself, but I can't wrong the lovely Miss Hongdou."
Ahai interrupted before the other party could finish. Anko's words.
"As long as I can be with you, I am willing to live in a shabby house."
Hongdou stubbornly shook his head, saying that he was not a materialistic person.
"How about that? Look at our Hongdou, with her oval-shaped round face, wow, slender upper body, lower body, not to mention the description. Just smile and you can make people die, let alone You are a very, very good breed.”
"Our lovely sister Hongdou, I want to take you to enjoy romance, play and have fun with you, but how can I be willing to let you endure hardship."
Ahai's words made Ya who was sitting behind It felt so numb, but Hongdou, who was driving, felt hot all over.
The three of them grew up together. It is obvious why Hongdou fell in love with Ah Hai.
Yazhan from behind was very unhappy, but at this time he could only watch helplessly.
"Hongdou, where do you want to go after retirement?"
Yazhan could only choose to change the topic and proactively asked Hongdou where he wanted to settle down.
“I want to find a peaceful place. It is best if there is no war forever. I heard that the mainland has reopened. I don’t know what the situation will be like. Hong Kong Island is about to return. I can consider it then.”< br>
Hongdou had obviously considered settling down for a long time. While she was talking, she was quietly looking at Ahai. She knew that he had an out-of-the-box personality and liked romantic places. He definitely wanted to go to France more. nation.
"You have a beautiful idea. Go to Ila. That place is the most peaceful. After all, it is protected by America's army. Otherwise, you can only go to heaven. God has the final say there, and the air It must be very fresh.”
“What are you talking about? I hate you so much. You drive.”
Hongdou was so interrupted by Ah Hai that she felt both loved and angry. She simply stopped the car and let Ah Hai drive.
At this moment, Yazhan could only turn his head and look at the surrounding scenery, because at this moment, Hongdou and Ahai only had each other in their eyes, and there was no place for others to stay.
"Actually, we have been running around here and there for so many years, and we really should find a place to stay."
After looking at the scenery for a while, Yazhan couldn't help but sigh.
“Hey, Brother Zhan, you can’t say that. As the saying goes, there is no place for heroes to be found throughout the ages. On the dancing pavilion and singing stage, the wind and rain will always blow away the wind. If you wait in one place for a long time, You will miss Tainan’s egg noodles, French foie gras, and Belgian ham again.”
Ah Hai came out to cause havoc again. Judging from his actions, he obviously didn't want everyone to really retire.
"Welcome! Welcome you three, you are really outstanding experts. Take out my painting quickly, I want to take a good look at it."
The three of them drove the car all the way and arrived quickly. Arrived at a villa.
The person who received the three people was none other than Consul Han’s good friend Thomas who had appeared at the consulate before.
"Half a million dollars is too expensive! We have to wait at least two or three years to find a way to sell this painting. The most I can give is four hundred thousand!"
Thomas observed it carefully and after confirming that the painting was authentic, he immediately raised the price.
"He said it was too expensive and could only give 400,000 yuan!"
Hongdou looked at Ahai and Yazhan. They were both orphans. Although they had been running around all these years, their English was still very good. It was so bad that Hongdou could only translate it to them.
Hai couldn't help laughing at Thomas's sudden price reduction.
"Hahaha, please help me greet his dear mother."
Then he looked at Hongdou, asking for help in translating.
“What is he talking about?”
Thomas actually knows a little bit of Cantonese, but Ah Hai spoke too fast and his voice was not loud, so he didn’t hear it clearly and could only Looking forward to Hongdou’s translation.
"How do you say this."
Hongdou was in trouble. Of the three, Ahai and Yazhan were always in charge of operations. She was usually responsible for gathering information and dealing with buyers.
"Then I will say it myself!"
Ah Hai still insisted on his opinion. He knew that Thomas knew a little Cantonese, so he deliberately slowed down his speaking speed.
"I want to say, where is your mother? I want to say hello to her."
Thomas's Cantonese is half-assed, and when he heard Ah Hai's greetings, he really thought that the other person was He cares about his mother.
So he smiled and shook hands with Ah Hai.
"My mother is in good health. Thank you for your concern."
"Five hundred thousand, not a penny less. If he doesn't want it, we will find other buyers."
>Ahai scolded the other party and received thanks from Thomas. He was unwilling to compromise on the price.
A painting like this had been sold at the last auction for five million US dollars. They only took 10% of the price after passing it over. Unexpectedly, Thomas was not willing to give 10%.
Hongdou faithfully translated Ahai’s meaning this time.
When Thomas heard that the three of them were unwilling to compromise on the price, he hesitated for a moment before finally nodding.
“Deal!”
However, although he agreed to the price of five hundred thousand, he did not ask anyone to take out the money. Instead, he waved, and the assistant next to him immediately brought one material.
"I'll give you two more million to help me steal something."
Thomas said as he handed the information to Hongdou.
"Wow, isn't this the faucet?"
A Hai sat up immediately when he saw what was in the picture.
"What faucet? This is a bronze statue of a zodiac animal head, a national treasure."
Hongdou couldn't help but roll his eyes at Ahai.
“Why did I just hear that ghost guy say that he wanted to give us millions.”
Yazan's attention was attracted by the reward figure mentioned by Thomas.
"He said he would give us two hundred dollars and ask us to steal this thing to him."
Hongdou did not hide Thomas's offer from the two of them.
“Wow, two million US dollars!”
When Yazhan heard this number, his eyes widened a bit.
