Chapter 27 Asmodeus

Ji Shang originally thought that Qin Zhijie's undercover case files had been obtained by Yin Hao somehow, so he dismissed Deng Deng and Ni Xiao, and secretly took himself away from Xiping Mountain for this reason.

Unexpectedly, after leaving Xiping Mountain, Yin Hao brought Ji Shang to a well-known cultural and entrepreneurial park in the north of the city, and then brought him into a flower art gallery called 'Yunbei'.

The exterior wall of this flower art gallery is pure white, with black lattice windows, and the Gothic spire is fully transparent.The decoration and furnishings inside are also very unique. It is more like a flower art gallery than an art collection gallery.

Although the number of flowers placed on the countertops, niches and flower stands is not large, it can be seen at a glance that each one is a waste of money.

"Why did you bring me here?" Ji Shang asked at a loss.

There was no sound in the flower art gallery, Yin Hao leaned towards Ji Shang, lowered his voice and said, "I accidentally destroyed Auntie's flowers at your house last time, so I have to pay her for it."

Ji Shang didn't worry about it at all, and remembered after a while: "Will Cao Weiwei be reimbursed?"

"What do you think?" Yin Hao looked at Ji Shang with a half-smile.

"Forget it, let's go." Ji Shang turned and walked towards the door, "Do you think I look like an elegant person? I'm just a layman."

Yin Hao grabbed Ji Shang's wrist and pulled him back: "If I damage something, I will have to pay for it. Besides, do you know the price of that orchid in your house? You can decide for auntie."

The flowers on Xianxiao's terrace were all bought by Ji Shang's mother, Ding Jinlan.The quarterly merchant didn't ask about the price, so he took it for granted that it should be similar to the ones in the flower garden wholesale market, tens of yuan per plant, and hundreds of yuan more expensive.

"The Pomo Dendrobium in your house looks good. But what I don't understand is how you put it on the terrace in summer."

When summer came, Ding Jinlan did move the potted flower indoors, but Ji Shang moved it out again because he was afraid that it would not be exposed to the sun.

Ji Shang looked Yin Hao up and down, and said in surprise: "You actually have research on flowers and plants?"

"Don't look at it, I'm just an ordinary person." Yin Hao still held Ji Shang's hand, "My mother likes it."

"It's really the same world, the same mother." After Ji Shang finished speaking, he saw a store worker walking in the distance, and he realized that his wrist was still being grabbed by Yin Hao.

"Let go." Ji Shang glanced at Yin Hao.

Yin Hao let go of his hand with a smile, and walked towards the oncoming staff.

"Hi, Mr. Yin, the Pomo Dendrobium you ordered just arrived this morning, and it has been packed for you here. Please come with me to check the condition of the orchid and pay the final payment."

When Yin Hao made the payment, Ji Shang followed him.

The numbers on the screen made Ji Shang gasp, secretly thinking that Ding Jinlan is really an out-and-out old prodigal mother.

Ji Shang leaned against the counter and hooked the corner of his mouth, and asked politely: "Miss, can we not want this flower?"

Under Ji Shang's sight, the clerk lowered her head slightly, and reminded with a sweet smile: "It's okay if you don't, but the deposit is non-refundable. We started to help adjust the appearance and variety specified by Mr. Yin more than half a month ago. .”

Ji Shang still leaned against the counter, and Shi Shiran asked again: "How much is the deposit?"

Just as the clerk was about to answer, Yin Hao stretched out a hand across Ji Shang's eyes. After his eyes were attracted, Yin Hao shook his palm: "The deposit is [-]%."

Ji Shang had a toothache, gave Yin Hao a mixed look, and walked out without looking back.Yin Hao showed the payment code to the clerk to scan it, and chased it out with the flowers in his arms.

Yin Hao chased outside the house: "What's the matter? Are you really angry?"

"Hurry up and go back to Xianxiao." Ji Shang took out the car keys from his pocket and threw them to Yin Hao, "I asked Xiao Niba to take out the pot that was broken last time. If it was thrown in the grass outside, maybe You can find it and save it.”

Ji Shang held the flower pot with both hands as if holding a tribute, maintaining a cautious posture all the time.Get off the car and go straight to the front desk of Xianxiao.

"Little mud, what about the potted flower that I broke on the terrace last time?"

Little Mud asked suspiciously, "Boss, didn't you ask me to throw it away?"

Ji Shang's heart tightened: "Where did you throw it?"

In my impression, my boss is rarely surprised like this. Little Niba realized that something was wrong and said hesitantly, "Throw it away, the trash can next to the shooting range in front..."

"Tsk."

Ji Shang pressed the center of his eyebrows and closed his eyes tightly.Yin Hao, who was standing behind him, suppressed a smile, patted his shoulder sympathetically, and rubbed him twice to show comfort.

Little Niba said again: "However, I saw the purple-white purple-white flowers, and the color was quite beautiful, so I picked them up. After pruning the broken branches, I found a pot to raise them."

Ji Shang frowned, and almost cried with joy: "Girl, your aesthetics have improved. Where did you put the flowers?"

"The last time I went back to the orphanage, I brought it with me."

Speaking of this, Little Mud became a little excited: "Don't tell me that the children in the yard liked the flowers very much. They scrambled to pinch all the flowers, and sent the plugs to the house for play. Later, they crushed the flowers." Painted on the nails, the purple paint is like being poisoned, it's ridiculous..."

Ji Shang's ups and downs finally bottomed out, he sighed deeply, and walked in helplessly: "It's enough for the children to have fun."

Little Mud asked: "Hey, boss, why are you asking me this?"

Ji Shang was speechless, and left with the pot of flowers in his hand.

"It's better that you don't know." Yin Hao turned his head and said to Little Niba again, "Also, don't gasp when you speak next time, your boss can't take it anymore."

Until Ji Shang and Yin Hao entered the elevator, they could still hear Xiao Niba muttering, "My boss is sick? What happened to his heart?"

Ji Shang handed the flower to Yin Hao: "You carry it."

Yin Hao deliberately joked: "What? Are you afraid that I will fall again?"

"My hands are numb." After Ji Shang gritted his teeth, he began to knead his palms with drooping eyebrows and eyes.After a while, he sighed in relief, "Forget it, at least the children have fun, and there is still some value."

Yin Hao deliberately imitated him and sighed: "That's what I said, but that potted flower is a gift that my aunt wants to give to her future daughter-in-law."

"You fell well, you broke her mind." Thinking of this, Ji Shang instantly turned pale.

Yin Hao teased: "Didn't I buy a pot to make up for it?"

Ji Shang was the first to step out of the elevator, and pointed at the pot of Dendrobium splashed with ink: "Take it away."

Yin Hao leisurely followed Ji Shang four or five steps away, and half-truthfully said: "What I gave you is yours. Now you want me to take it away, why? You want to give Auntie a gift?"

Ji Shang was holding the doorknob to unlock it, his hands paused slightly after hearing this, and he didn't look up or speak.

Yin Hao said again: "Wrong, no matter what happens, I have to be the son-in-law."

Ji Shang pushed open the door: "Your uncle's son-in-law, don't take advantage of me."

Yin Hao followed in with a smile, and put the orchid on the corner table next to the sofa facing the terrace.After hearing what Yin Hao said just now, Ji Shang never mentioned the matter of asking him to take the flowers away.

After the two put the flowers away, they hurried into the study.On the way back to Xianxiao, the police had already sent the surveillance video of Xipingshan to Yin Hao's mailbox.

There are only eight monitoring points from the Changping Nursing Home to the foot of the mountain.From the time when Kuang Jie left the Changping Nursing Home to the time when the heavy rain damaged the Xipingshan circuit, it took about seven hours.

Ji Shang used his work computer, and also carried a laptop for Yin Hao to use. The two were each in charge of four surveillance videos, and the four images on the screen were played at double speed at the same time.

Two hours later, Ji Shang finished watching the video, and another quarter of an hour later, Yin Hao also ended playing it.

The two put down their computers and looked at each other, shaking their heads at the same time.

"Kuang Jie didn't leave Xiping Mountain at all."

At 10:[-] p.m., Kuang Jie left Changping Nursing Home and walked [-] minutes with her daughter to a nearby bus stop.

There were only mother and daughter on the platform from beginning to end. During this period, Kuang Jie made a phone call and twice took out a thermos from her bag to give her daughter a drink of water.A quarter of an hour later, a black car stopped at the platform. Kuang Jie made a gesture to confirm the license plate, and then carried her sleeping daughter into the back seat of the car.

The strange thing is that this car did not head towards the foot of Xiping Mountain, but drove up the mountain with the mother and daughter.

The surveillance at the entrance of the Changping Nursing Home showed that at five past twelve, the two black cars passed by the entrance of the Nursing Home without stopping, and headed uphill.

"Before going to the Changping Nursing Home, Xiao Niba checked. The tourism industry in Xiping Mountain has only been developed in the past year. There are not many homestays. There are not even buses running from the Nursing Home to the mountain. Among the homestays under construction on the mountain, only one has been completed. Start normal business."

"There is indeed only one." Yin Hao raised his phone, "Lichen Xiaozhu."

About half an hour later, the black car that took Kuang Jie's mother and daughter up the mountain passed by the gate of the Changping Nursing Home again. The front and rear windows were opened, and there was only the driver in the car.

Ji Shang leaned on the lazy sofa and turned his phone: "Judging from Kuang Jie's body language before getting into the car, the seat she chose, and the time interval since the car went downhill, it can be preliminarily inferred that the owner of the car does not know Kuang Jie. , just a pure online car-hailing driver.”

Yin Hao frowned and said, "At least Kuang Jie stayed on the mountain until the circuit was cut off. Kuang Jie and her family must be lying."

Yin Hao said this because, apart from a small black car, only two cars appeared on the surveillance screen of Changping Nursing Home after twelve o'clock.

A silver-gray Porsche headed up the mountain at [-]:[-] and went down the mountain at [-]:[-] in the afternoon.The person driving the car was a man, and he was always the only man in the car.

A white off-road vehicle parked in the parking lot of the nursing home at one thirty in the afternoon.

A person got out of the white car, took out the wheelchair from the trunk, opened it, and hugged the man in the co-driver onto the wheel.The two came to the gate of Changping Nursing Home, but before knocking on the door, the gate was pulled open.

A white figure was holding the door and standing inside, Yin Hao recognized Ji Shang at a glance.At the same time, he also noticed that when Ji Shang and Ding Hengyuan met at the door, they were both stunned for a moment.

Ji Shang cuts away the screen and zooms in on the suspended silver-gray Porsche.The time is displayed as three o'clock in the afternoon, and the location is a platform at the foot of Xiping Mountain.

Ji Shang said: "The two Porsches and the black car went up the mountain, and then drove down the mountain in the rain abnormally. There is indeed a little bit of suspiciousness. You can check it out. There is also the owner of the black car. I can provide some information."

"I don't have any evidence right now. Team Cao will not approve the verification of the owner's information." Yin Hao looked at Ji Shang, "There is a more direct method."

"what?"

Yin Hao looked at Ji Shang: "Accompany me to Xiping Mountain again."

"You can go." Ji Shang's gaze paused somewhere on the wall, "I'll make a phone call before I go."

"Who to call?"

Ji Shang's expression froze, and then he smiled flirtatiously with the corners of his mouth hooked: "A little cutie."

After playing tricks, Ji Shang took out his mobile phone and made a call.After Yin Hao looked at Xiang Chao's name on the screen, he sneered coldly without concealing it.

"You like this type?"

Ji Shang glanced at him, calmly and intentionally disgusted him and said: "You are cute, cute, and smiling all day long, how nice it is."

"Then if you find a girl, you'll be done." Yin Hao clenched his fists tightly, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. In short, he was more annoyed than uncomfortable.

Just now Yin Hao ridiculed Ji Shang as his wife and took advantage of him once, now Ji Shang seized the opportunity to make up for it.

Seeing that Yin Hao's brows were gradually tightening, he knew that his treachery had succeeded.Then he strikes while the iron is hot, and deliberately shifts his gaze from Yin Hao's face to Xiasanlu. After a false glance at Yin Hao's surprised expression, he stares at the phone screen again.

He said calmly: "Women don't have that component, I have different preferences from yours, so we can't discuss this matter."

In the past, when he assisted in the anti-pornography campaign and anti-illegal websites, Yin Hao had seen a little bit, and suddenly all kinds of pictures popped into his mind, but the characters in the scene changed their faces.

Officer Yin's thinking was like a wild horse, and his ears were blown softly as if being lifted, and the ground turned red.

Ji Shang secretly smiled, thinking that he wanted to tease your senior and me, you are still a little tender after all.

The two were fighting secretly, and the phone that had been left unanswered for a long time was finally answered, and Xiang Chaoyu's calm, calm voice without any emotional ups and downs came from the other end.

On the grounds that Ji Shang picked up a puppet given to Yi Xiangxue by the old man in the nursing home, he wanted to send it there along the way.But Xiang Chao refused on the grounds that Xiaoxue was taking a nap and would not bother Ji Shang.

"What are you doing in a daze?" Ji Shang stood up, "Go to Xiping Mountain."

In the ordinary phone call just now, Yin Hao didn't catch any clues, but Ji Shang seemed to be more sure.

"Yesterday, when I was performing at the nursing home, Yi Xiangxue danced a short piece of ballet. Kuang Jie, who was showing off to others, accidentally mentioned that Yi Xiangxue would go to ballet class at [-] o'clock every Sunday afternoon. "

Ji Shang pointed to the wall clock on the wall, the hour hand pointed to [-]:[-] pm.
