The pink diamond tiara once belonged to Tsarina Catherine of Russia and was a betrothal gift given to her by her mother-in-law, Tsarina Elizabeth.
When Gu Nianzhi turned one year old, Gu Xiangwen bought it at Christie's auction house for a high price of US$70 million as a first-year gift for his daughter.
This pink diamond crown should be something that has always been with her, right
For little girls, anything that represents the status of a little princess is their favorite.
When you can even put a pillow towel on your body to look like a princess, how could you ignore such a beautiful pink diamond crown
"Is it the pink diamond crown? Am I right?!"
Gu Nianzhi was so excited that he clasped his hands in front of him, "Not only because of its own value and attraction to the little girl, but also because my father also left many clues. Do you remember the Taj Mahal?" ?Reflected in the pool in front of the Taj Mahal is a girl wearing a crown! And that note!"
If the Das Clinic's cursive English poems point the way, it is Gu Xiangwen's safe in the basement of a bank in Cape City, which contains the suicide note left by Gu Nian's grandfather Gu Haoze and five DNA molecular structure diagrams. , so why don’t the clues at the Taj Mahal have no special direction? !
Those were all clues left by Gu Xiangwen at the same time seven years ago!
Moreover, Gu Nianzhi now knows that the cursive English poem "alittlegirlneedsdaddy" in the Dasi Clinic refers not only to the suicide note of his grandfather Gu Haoze, but also to Gu Xiangwen's submarine anchored in the Cape of Good Hope...
When He Zhichu saw Gu Nianzhi's eyes widening, he laughed again, "Just say so..."
"Is that true or not?!" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but stamp his feet and squealed, wishing he could pry He Zhichu's mouth open with a knife.
The expression was lively, pretty and alluring, but she had no idea how damaging this look was to He Zhichu.
His smile suddenly faded, he pursed his lips, looked away, returned to his clear and indifferent tone, and said lightly: "Yes or no, you can find out by yourself."
I know why I can't get a definite answer here from the beginning.
Gu Nianzhi twitched his lips and picked up his small handbag, "In that case, I'll take my leave. Goodbye, Professor He."
"Yes." He Zhichu didn't look back and waved to her as a farewell.
After leaving He Zhichu's villa, Gu Nianzhi sat back in his car and said to Xiao Ye who was sitting in the driving seat: "Go to Hepingli, I have an apartment there."
It was a second-hand house that Gu Nianzhi bought with his own money. It was a small two-bedroom house with more than 100 square meters. Huo Shaoheng sent people to renovate it and added very strict security measures.
I don't know if these security measures are still in place now.
She remembered the pink diamond tiara, which was stored in the built-in hidden safe behind the wardrobe.
Huo Shaoheng told her the password and method of opening the hidden safe.
Xiao Ye nodded and drove her to the Fourth Ring Road and Hepingli Apartment complex.
After parking the car in the underground parking lot, the two took the elevator directly to the sixth floor.
All security measures here remain unchanged.
Xiao Ye glanced and found four or five hidden cameras in the corridor.
The other end of the camera must be under the surveillance of the Special Operations Division.
The entire corridor and the perimeter of the apartment building should be included.
Xiao Ye calmed down and walked into her small apartment with Gu Nianzhi.
The room here is much smaller than the third-ring apartment that Gu Nianzhi lives in now, but it is very warmly decorated, and it looks like a room where a single woman lives.
Gu Nianzhi asked Xiao Ye to wait outside. He went to the bedroom, opened the closet, opened a partition, and found the hidden safe built into the back.
She entered the password skillfully, opened the safe according to the method Huo Shaoheng taught her, and saw a dark gold brocade box inside.
Inside this brocade box is her pink diamond crown.
Gu Nianzhi looked at it intently for a while, then reached out and took out the brocade box.
Opening the lid of the box, I saw the pink diamond-encrusted crown.
The diamond is transparent and flawless, and the crystal pink color shines through the core of the diamond, like the first ray of sunlight on the snowdrift on the top of a mountain.
No artificial gemstone can create this kind of texture.
Not to mention the history represented by this diamond tiara.
Gu Nianzhi looked at it for a while, then closed the lid of the box, put it in his backpack, and left the apartment with Xiao Ye.
"Go to Master Huo." Gu Nianzhi held his backpack and sat in the passenger seat. He turned to Xiao Ye and said, "Thank you very much for disturbing your vacation today."
In fact, today is the last day of Xiao Ye's vacation.
Huo Shaoheng will go to work tomorrow, and Xiao Ye's vacation is of course over.
Gu Nianzhi will go to the Upper House of Parliament to formally join the office tomorrow, and everyone will be busy.
Xiao Ye said with a smile: "What did Miss Gu say? It's me who thanks Miss Gu. These days at home have really depressed me."
"Ah? Really? Or a blind date?" Gu Nianzhi remembered that Xiao Ye secretly called her, hoping to cancel her leave early and come back to work.
Xiao Ye's face immediately fell, "Yeah, it's endless. I don't even remember what those people look like. I just remember that they were busy coming and going in various restaurants every day."
Gu Nianzhi laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.
For a beauty like Xiao Ye, even if they knew that she had a special job and could fight and kill, there would still be many men who liked her.
He has a good family background, is beautiful, has the rank of colonel at a young age, is capable, and has good character. Only a blind man would reject such a blind date.
But the men who can be attracted to her are probably very rare.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but think of Vladimir, the second-in-command of the Russian KGB.
He did have feelings for her, but she couldn't have feelings for him.
Even if there is, it needs to be pinched.
As a soldier, and a disciplined force within a disciplined force, if you can't even control your own feelings, how can you protect your home and country
Gu Nianzhi felt that Xiao Ye had no special feelings for Vladimir. He just thought of Vladimir's infatuation and hoped that Xiao Ye's identity could be kept secret forever and not be discovered by Vladimir.
This way at least he can retain a good feeling in his heart.
Therefore, Gu Nianzhi stopped mentioning this topic and said with a smile: "I will officially join the team tomorrow. Can you return to the team?"
She becomes chief legal adviser to the upper house of parliament and will have her own security detail.
Xiao Ye was only lent by Huo Shaoheng to protect her during the transition period.
But now that the dust has settled and the bodies of Gu Xiangwen and his wife have been buried in the National Martyrs Cemetery, Gu Nianzhi can't think of any reason to let Xiao Ye still follow him.
And more importantly, with a talent like Xiao Ye, Gu Nianzhi felt that following him only as a bodyguard would be an understatement.
Xiao Ye didn't care whether she was a bender or not. For her, Huo Shaoheng's orders were orders that she had to obey.
"Master Huo ordered me to follow Miss Gu. This is my post." Xiao Ye said calmly, "Although it is indeed comfortable to follow Miss Gu, an order is an order. I have no right to pick and choose."
Gu Nianzhi chuckled, "I was just talking casually, Xiao Ye, don't be so serious."
The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the headquarters of the Special Operations Division.
Gu Nianzhi went to Huo Shaoheng's official residence, while Xiao Ye returned to his dormitory.
…
"Back?" Huo Shaoheng poked his head out from behind the computer and took a look at Gu Nianzhi's face, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the executor?"
"No." Gu Nianzhi walked to him and sat down, resting her head on his shoulder. At the same time, she stuffed the brocade box with the pink diamond crown into his arms, and said melancholy: "That was my father's birthday eighteen years ago. The wills made actually don’t count anymore. I think the main purpose of my dad’s will was for this... "
She patted the brocade box in Huo Shaoheng's arms.
Huo Shaoheng took her into his arms, held the brocade box in one hand, and put his hand on her shoulder. He pondered for a long time, kissed her forehead, and said, "It seems that your father has been planning for a rainy day for a long time."
"I feel weird." Gu Nianzhi tilted his head, "Look at this pink diamond crown. Does it seem like something can be hidden inside?"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her, "Why do you ask?"
Gu Nianzhi took out Gu Xiangwen's will from eighteen years ago, "Look at this..."
The will was very short, with all the important content contained in one sentence.
"My entire property list has always been with my daughter Gu Nianzhi."
Huo Shaoheng looked at it for a long time and then said slowly: "My father-in-law is really a very cautious person."
Gu Nianzhi heard the words "father-in-law" from Huo Shaoheng's mouth and felt it was very strange. He tilted his head and looked at him for a while. Seeing that he had a matter-of-fact expression, he curled his lips and said with a smile: "Yes, Just this sentence, if his will is obtained, we don’t know how much property he actually has.”
Even the lawyer doesn't know his family background.
Huo Shaoheng's eyes moved to the brocade box that Gu Nianzhi stuffed into his arms. He picked it up and put it on the coffee table in front of him. He said thoughtfully: "Do you think that this is the one who has always been with you?" Diamond tiara?”
Gu Nianzhi raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it?"
If she remembered correctly, her father, Gu Xiangwen, bought this pink diamond crown at Christie's auction house for a sky-high price in the year he made his will as her first birthday gift.
At first glance, it seems that it can be regarded as a family heirloom, a precious jewelry that will accompany her throughout her life.
Huo Shaoheng narrowed his eyes, leaned into her ear, and said in a very low voice: "... I'm the one who's always by your side, isn't it me?"
The voice is deep and magnetic, like the first nocturne played by the cello at dusk in summer, with the gentleness of the evening breeze and the fragrance of grass, refreshing.
Gu Nianzhi's ears were numb, and he scratched his earlobe uneasily with his hand, and glanced at Huo Shaoheng: "...How did my father know that you would be by my side eighteen years ago? Besides, you haven't always been by my side...at least. Not before the age of twelve.”
Huo Shaoheng was just joking. He sat back, put one hand on the armrest of the sofa, and said calmly: "If it wasn't me, then it could only be this diamond crown."
