"General Phokas's mansion..." Long Yuehong asked inexplicably, "Why do you say that? Did you encounter anything strange at the time?"
Jiang Baimian shook his head:
"I just listed all the things related to Zhao Family Manor and went through it in my mind. During the whole process, we actually didn't have direct contact with many people. Zhao Shouren, the steward, Shen Kui, a member of the "Anti-Intellectual Sect", General Phokas and some servants and guards in his mansion.
"When I met them face-to-face, I and Shang Jianyao were vigilant enough that they were not negligent, so that they would not be monitored, followed, or locked in a place of residence without being noticed."
"Yeah, then why do you think there was a problem in General Fucas' mansion?" Long Yuehong asked.
Jiang Baimian further explained:
"The most likely place to go wrong is there.
"Isn't it normal to be under surveillance in the general's mansion? This is a security measure without any problems.
"So, Shang Jianyao and I are not so vigilant in this regard, and we are very cooperative with their work. Perhaps, in this process, we were unknowingly given some hints, and we relaxed our self-requirements on the way back and no longer So serious anti-stalking led to the exposure of Xingzo. Well, maybe because it was just a hint, it returned to normal after a sleep, and we completely ignored this aspect of the problem.
"And at that time we didn't bring the old man, there was no intelligent person to fight this kind of thing.
"Well, I remember that time, after we left General Phocas' mansion, we first went to the hotel to ask about the 'innocence' epidemic, and then went directly back to the rental house on Iron Medal Street.
"That's where we started our split this time."
Long Yuehong heard a burst of horror:
"Wouldn't that be too exaggerated? Both of you would be unknowingly insinuated..."
This "anti-intellectualism" is too scary, isn't it
Bai Chen nodded, and seemed to think that this was not something that humans could do.
Jiang Baimian sighed and turned to look at Shang Jianyao next to him:
"Review that memory with the 'Fate Pearl' to see if there is any problem with our words and deeds."
"Fate Pearl" is one of the biggest backers of the "Old Tune Group" against "Anti-Intellectualism".
—The other is Gnavar.
Every time something like this happens, Jiang Baimian is especially grateful to DiMarco.
Shang Jianyao had been listening quietly just now, as if he had entered a state of serious thinking.
He quickly took out the night pearl emitting a turquoise light and held it in the palm of his hand.
Compared with the past, the light of this "Fate Pearl" is obviously dimmed.
It lights up immediately.
…
In the "Sea of Origins", Shang Jianyao sat cross-legged in the air, divided into nine.
The huge waves surged upwards, and the countless shimmers contained in them expanded and enlarged, freezing them into various pictures.
The businessmen were responsible for each area, and narrowed down the memories of visiting General Phokas and returning to Iron Medal Street.
They watched frame by frame, as if contemplating how to cut these scenes into a movie.
It didn't take long for them to complete the review, merged into one, and returned to the real world.
While putting away the "Fate Pearl", Shang Jian Yao said:
"After Mianmian, Dabai and I left Phokas' mansion, we really relaxed in anti-stalking and less attentive."
Hearing this sentence, Long Yuehong's pupils instantly dilated.
It was really hinted at the residence of General Phokas! Really unwittingly went wrong!
At this time, Shang Jianyao added another sentence:
"But it's not sure if we've relaxed ourselves because of the change in the situation, or if it's been influenced by outsiders."
Jiang Baimian retracted his gaze from this guy and asked:
"Didn't find out when we were affected?"
Shang Jianyao shook his head:
"There were only a few people we had contact with in the general's mansion, and the conversations were normal, and there was nothing that happened when the whole person became sluggish with eye contact."
This is the most terrifying! Long Yuehong glanced at Bai Chen and found that her face was equally solemn.
Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully:
"So, who is the problem? It's just a hint, it probably doesn't need to be as complicated as 'hypnosis', maybe just a gesture, an eye contact, a word that sounds ordinary, can make us Unconsciously affected... Well, the 'Anti-Intellectualism' wants to ignite the internal contradictions of the 'First City', and it is indeed possible to send someone to sneak into the residence of General Phokas to control the development of the matter."
"It is also possible that the one who was secretly monitoring was an awakened person at the level of the 'Spiritual Corridor', such as the 'Pastor' Bouillon, and we were exposed to his ability for a long time, and we thought it was normal for the monitoring, so we were slowly being monitored by him. Remote hints." Shang Jianyao proposed another possibility.
Long Yuehong heard a burst of fear and blurted out:
"Do you want to inform General Phocas?"
Jiang Baimian suddenly laughed:
"What if the person in question is General Phocas himself
"In the general's mansion that day, he was the one who talked to us the most."
Long Yuehong was stunned.
"That's why this pool is very deep. We can't control it. We should not mix it up and cut off the hand of the real 'priest' that is reaching out to us." Jiang Baimian turned his attention to Genawa, " Lao Ge, don't just listen, cook the noodles."
"We don't have soy sauce." Genova expressed his embarrassment.
In the beginning, the majority of people in the city were Honghe people, and they did not have the habit of using soy sauce.
And if you go to the streets where the gray people live, there is absolutely no need for the "old-tone group" to make their own handmade noodles.
Fortunately, the Red Giant Wolf District is a place with a higher standard of living on the dusty soil. Jiang Baimian and others have obtained other seasonings and reluctantly ate noodles.
…
The next morning, Jiang Baimian sent a telegram to Zhao Zhengqi at the appointed time, and briefly talked about the development of the matter.
She believed that the other party must have known the specific process, that those who "anti-Intellectualism" had been initially "eliminated", and that Zhao Yixue was imprisoned in the residence of General Phokas, but as a team of ideal and moral relic hunters, What should be reported still has to be reported, and, when it comes to being attacked by a real "priest", it must be reported with great detail.
It didn't take long for the Zhao family to return the telegram.
"Let's contact Lanster and find Zhao Shouyi, the general manager of the Zhao family here, to complete the transfer of ownership of Zuoan Manor." Jiang Baimian laughed after decoding the code, "Let's not continue to investigate, everything will be handed over to General Fucas dealt with it, huh, is Lao Zhao too timid? The 'anti-intellectualism' has been bullied to the end, and he doesn't want to completely tear his face off. It should be that General Phokas didn't say it, it seems that there is still a long time before the celebration."
"At least gave us a manor as a reward." Although Bai Chen's expression did not change, his tone was quite satisfied.
As a relic hunter who came from a wilderness wanderer, every time she has a lot of harvest, she can make her happy.
In stark contrast to her was Shang Jianyao, who was slightly disappointed.
Jiang Baimian first nodded, then sighed:
"If there is only one manor, the only choice is the military exoskeleton device and the robotic arm."
Even if Lehman gets a 30% discount, you can only choose one.
Such controlled items are often priceless. If it weren't for the "Old Tune Group" establishing a connection with the arms dealer of "United Industries", Lehman, it shocked him and helped him figure out the truth of his desire. Impossible to buy.
"The robotic arm is cooler!" Shang Jianyao immediately expressed his opinion.
"But the military exoskeleton device is easier to use and can be used immediately." Long Yuehong objected slightly.
"You already have it." Shang Jianyao pointed out.
"But the team leader doesn't exist yet. You don't need it, and the team leader needs it too." Long Yuehong argued.
Shang Jianyao fell into silence, seemingly embarrassed.
Seeing this, Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
"Let's talk about it then, maybe our question isn't which one to pick, but which one we can afford."
After finishing the argument, Jiang Baimian raised his hands and slowly stretched his body:
"Three things today, one is to get the manor and put it in the bag, the other is to meet with the company's intelligence officer and give him the items that need to be tested, and the third is to go to the hotel and find the boss."
"Why are you looking for boss Ugo?" Long Yuehong asked in confusion.
Bai Chen frowned slightly, also not understanding the team leader's thoughts.
She asked tentatively:
"Let's see if the 'wuxin disease' epidemic is over, and see if you want to move back?"
Jiang Baimian looked around and said with a smile:
"It's on the one hand, and on the other hand, it's to ask him who was behind us when we went to the hotel that day to ask about 'no heart disease'.
"He's not a simple hotel owner, maybe noticed."
That day refers to the day Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao went to visit General Phokas.
