On a quiet night, outside the gate of Red Shield Manor, three black commercial vehicles were parked there, preventing anyone from entering. The Men in Black Action Team has already been shut out of the door. Even if they enjoy privileges and run rampant in North America, they dare not make mistakes when they reach this door.
Li Muye and Lao Cui were sitting in the RV hundreds of meters away and watching. Ji Xuefei sat on the roof of the car and put down the night vision binoculars and said: "Old Li, the threshold of this family is high enough. The black guy and the others have eaten the boss." A bowl of rejection, even the door is not allowed to enter."
"Hold Kuidou and monitor carefully." Li Muye said: "Sun Defu may take action at any time. With Kuidou here, I guarantee that no mice will dare to approach you."
Ji Xuefei said: "Old Li, you are such an evil old cat. Just like your master, you like to get into women's arms."
Li Muye chuckled and said, "When did you start to feel that you are a woman?"
"I don't have one." Ji Xuefei hurriedly defended. After being silent for a while, he said again: "Can you think of a way? Let's sneak in and take a look. We can just watch from a distance outside. I think it is unlikely that we will find anything. Maybe at midnight, Sun Defu will launch an army of rats to kill these people." The whole family ate it all and we didn’t even know it.”
"Your worries are reasonable. I heard Huo Ze say that there are two museums above and below the ground in the Red Shield Manor. The above-ground collections are more than the British Museum, but the underground museums contain real treasures." Li Muye said : "Sun Defu doesn't like the collection above ground, but it's hard to say about the collection underground."
Ji Xuefei got down from above excitedly, got into the cab, and asked, "Do you know what good things there are? Is there any way you can get in?"
Li Muye said: "I don't know exactly what it is. I just heard Huo Ze say that the treasures there are rare treasures that this family has collected from all over the world since the 18th century." He added: " In order to protect the entrance to the Rat Kingdom hidden under his mother's tomb, Sun Defu drove rats out of the embankment and killed many people. This angered Bai Wuxia, who had just ascended to the top of the literary list. After he squandered his money to save his life, he took refuge in Baiyun. Tang, he abandoned the countless secret treasures of the Rat Kingdom. It is conceivable that it is difficult for ordinary treasures to fall into his eyes."
He took a sip of water and continued: "If there is something in Red Shield Manor that really attracts him and is worth his while, it must be something extraordinary. We might as well sneak in and have a look."
Ji Xuefei said: "Have you thought of a way?"
Li Muye nodded and said: "I have a temporary idea, but I don't know if it will work or not. You can give it a try." After saying that, he turned on the computer and found the news about the Red Shield Manor looking for a rodent exterminator. He took out his phone and dialed a series of numbers. .
Ji Xuefei understood: "Oh, you are pretending to be a rodent exterminator."
Li Muye smiled and said, "It's so new. What do you mean by pretending? I am half a disciple of Jiao Xiaofeng, the Rat Magistrate. My research on rats is better than that of ordinary rodent experts."
The call was connected, and Li Muye asked the other party in proficient English: "Excuse me, are you suffering from swarms of rats? Are you worried about the food in your granary? Are you worried that rats will crawl into the bedroom and attack at night? Children’s toes?”
The other party pondered for a while and said in a low London accent: "Are you an expert in rodent control?"
Li Muye said: "I am the most professional. With a few hours and a sum of money, I can solve all your problems."
The other party said: "You are the fifth person who called today to apply for a job. The first four have all left and refused any reward. Each of them seemed to have some skills when they first came, but they all ended up failing in the end, so I need to identify what you’re good at.”
Li Muye said: "I have a professional and high-quality rodent extermination team, and I have an exclusive secret recipe for exterminating rats. It is absolutely different from them. Just give us a chance, and I will prove that you did not choose the wrong person."
"What kind of company are you?" The other party was obviously not easy to deceive, and continued: "I have tried it with the four best pest control companies in Chicago."
Li Muye said: "Look, you also said that they are a pest control company, but we are the most professional rodent control team. We only target those thieves. As long as a customer sends an invitation, we will come to the door to deal with them. We will never allow them to be killed." Our client’s home is infested with rats.”
The other party was silent for a while and said, "Are you willing to come over on the night shift?"
Li Muye naturally had no problem. After agreeing, he made an appointment to come to the door in an hour and hung up the phone. He smiled and said, "Have you heard that the people in this manor are really anxious. They are still willing to open the door for a rodent exterminator on the phone at this time. I guess there will be a lot of rats here."
Ji Xuefei said: "Don't scare me. No matter where you go, don't try to throw me away."
Lao Cui said: "There is a small town ahead. Let's go there and get a car and get some work clothes."
An hour later, in front of the Red Shield Manor.
Li Muye and three others drove an old pickup truck and parked at the gate. Lao Cui got out of the truck first, and after connecting to the access control, he was allowed to enter the manor.
Not far away, in several vehicles of the Men in Black Action Group, the men in black headed by Gordon had recognized the three of them, but they could only look at them with envy. For them, whether the Red Shield Manor is protected or not is a matter of choice. Although the people living here were once the core family of Freemasonry, the big bosses of Freemasonry do not like them now. So the order Gordon received was that unless the rat plague spread outside the manor, or the person who caused the disaster appeared, they could sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
After experiencing the last tragic war between rats and humans, Gordon had learned a lesson. If he could avoid fighting those rat armies, it would be best to avoid them as much as possible. Therefore, although he had the right and obligation to interrogate the actions of Li Muye and the others, he preferred to remain silent. This guy's idea is to let those damn rats bite the damn Chinese to death, which is the perfect news tonight.
The pickup truck drove into the manor. This place was surprisingly large. There were nine buildings in the fenced area. Lao Cui followed the directions and drove the car to a building behind the manor. Only a white-haired old man in straight clothes was waiting here. He looked at the three people with distrustful eyes and asked: "Who was talking to me just now?" A rodent exterminator?”
Li Muye wore a brand-new gray overalls bought at a convenience store. With a confident smile on his face, he preemptively said: "Don't say anything if it doesn't make sense. Let's introduce the situation first." In this way, he looked strong and confident, and could also maximize his power. Avoid the other party's interrogation as much as possible.
The white-haired old man frowned and said, "Asian? Are you Japanese?"
It’s him, isn’t this a curse
Li Muye said with a displeased look on his face: "Do you need a rodent exterminator or a guy who can cook with feces?"
The old man solemnly said: "Of course it's the former." He added: "But before you start working, I need to confirm some information. Young man, what is the situation of the largest and most rat you have ever seen?"
Li Muye said: "I have seen bigger ones than dogs, and there are thousands of them." Then he said: "Sir, please believe that our professionalism is enough to help you solve your problems."
The old man looked at the three people, and finally looked at Ji Xuefei, who was holding the old cat, and asked, "Can I see her ID card?"
Li Muye said: "Are you questioning the professionalism of my employees?"
The old man said: "No, I just want to confirm her age and confirm that this child can adapt to this terrible job."
Ji Xuefei held Kuidou in his arms and said, "Don't worry, I'm very experienced in dealing with rats."
The old man smiled and said: "And your cat, kid, I hope it can bring you courage." Then he said solemnly: "Because, there are really many big rats here that you need to deal with." , he handed a key to Li Muye and said, "I leave it to you."
Li Muye said: "We charge for rodent control based on quantity. Don't you need to confirm the charging standard first?"
"There is no need." The old man said: "Believe me, if you can get rid of the rats here, you will definitely make a lot of money." He pointed to the building behind him and said: "Anything here The value of the collection is far more important than the need to meet your commission.”
It turns out that this place is the museum of Red Shield Manor. No wonder this old guy Rory is chattering endlessly. Li Makoye thought, why are these rats staring at this place? If it was Sun Defu who directed it, what did he want to get from this? Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "In such a big manor, is this the only place where there are rats?"
The old man said: "Only this place has the most, and it cannot be destroyed. The other people who have been here before you all gave up after entering that door."
Li Muye nodded, stepped up the steps, and opened the door that the old man said was like Pandora's box. An unpleasant stale smell hit my face. After receiving Li Muye's signal, Lao Cui walked in immediately, Ji Xuefei followed closely, Xiaoye took charge of the rear, and the three of them quickly entered the building without hesitation.
The first thing that comes into view is an extremely spacious place that is simply magnificent. There are paintings hanging on the surrounding walls, and a circle of display cabinets are placed against the wall, listing many cultural relics and treasures in a dazzling array. There are so many things, large and small, from all historical periods and ancient civilizations.
From the 18th century to the 21st century, for more than two hundred years, this place built through plunder and conquest recorded the most glorious history of the British Empire.
When the three of them stepped inside, they did not see the huge rats all over the ground as they had imagined. Li Muye faintly heard the sound of the tide receding. Just as he was wondering what was going on, the old man also followed in.
Li Muye turned around when he heard the sound and asked, "Sir, what are you doing here?"
The old man said: "I am the security manager of the manor. This is the private museum of the manor. It is my responsibility. Of course, I have to personally supervise everyone's work."
Li Muye asked strangely: "Is there no surveillance here?"
The old man said: "The monitoring system was gnawed by rats."
Li Muye smiled: "The rats here are quite powerful. They specifically destroyed the monitoring system, but they did not destroy the power cables."
The old man said: "These rats are extremely destructive, but they seem to be very targeted. They are mainly concentrated in this museum that displays Asian items."
"So, this building isn't the whole of the manor museum?"
The old man said: "It's just a part of it."
Li Muye asked: "Is there any powerful mechanism here?"
The old man said: "There must be some, but it was closed before you started working." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the left, saying: "This place has been visited by the previous four groups of rodent control experts, and the rats are facing each other. It’s much less. Over there is Exhibition Hall No. 2. After you walk in, there is an elevator on the left that connects the above-ground building to the underground part.”
Li Muye asked strangely: "Why are you the only one in such a large manor? Where are the others?"
The old man said: "Some people fled after being bitten by rats. During this time, some of the people who stayed have also taken a rest. It is my responsibility, so I have no choice but to stay and supervise the work of a few people."
"Are you going to just keep watching how we deal with those nasty rats?"
The old man said: "Of course! I need to confirm the effectiveness of your work before paying you the commission."
"That makes sense!" Li Muye said no more.
The three of them walked into the No. 2 exhibition hall directed by the old man. As soon as they entered, they heard the sound of the first door of the hall closing behind them. The three of them were startling themselves when a strange sound suddenly came from above them. When they looked up, they saw that the walls around the No. 2 exhibition hall were covered with rats wherever they could stand. A gust of wind blew from behind. Li Muye noticed the movement and quickly looked back. He saw a huge purple-black creature knocking over the old man behind him and picking it up. It rushed past him and got into the open door. The dark elevator shaft... (End of this chapter)
