Chapter 185 Leveraging Strength
The sapphire was found, and Yu Ming and others were very happy, but Zhang Nuonan was very unhappy. What she wanted more was to catch the thief instead of simply recovering the sapphire. This is the difference between the investigator and the police. The investigator is whether you are a spider or a gecko, as long as the things are returned to Zhao.
It seemed that everything had begun to go through the process. The employer called the police in City A, then checked the sapphire identification certificate, confirming that the twin sapphire was cut from the big sapphire. The police filed an investigation and Chen Xiaofeng lost the car to protect the coach and passed the fault on the minions.
However, the previous one was carried out according to the script until the police filed a case. The police investigation found that it was indeed cut from a large sapphire, but the other twin sapphire disappeared. The bank, Chen's Jewelry, and insurance companies all took stock of the stolen goods. Since the sapphire was not insured, it was the last count. Chen's Jewelry found that the two sapphires were gone.
Zhang Nuonan couldn't laugh. He originally thought he could catch a big fish, but now there was no evidence. Ye Zhan's sapphire was picked up by the grass in the hospital, and it had no direct relationship with Chen Xiaofeng. It could not be proved that it was the one in the bank safe. Where else was there? Mandy was not happy. He originally thought that the entrusting was easy to get, but he didn't know that this mess would happen again.
"No doubt, another sapphire was taken by a spider." Yu Ming concluded that the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole was behind. When a spider candidate implemented the bank safe plan, another spider took the trick and took away another sapphire.
Mandy counted the time. Two days have passed since the bank burglary case, and it really fell into the hands of the spider. The person has completed the selection task.
Today is a holiday. Yu Ming and Mandy are barbecuing in a resort village outside A. They have to be busy with work and enjoy life. Yu Ming has not spoken to comfort Mandy. The phone rings first. Yu Ming sets two modes for the phone, the satellite phone vibrates, and the ordinary local card is the ringing. Yu Ming answers the phone: "Hey!"
"Are you looking for something?" asked a voice-changing voice.
Yu Ming put his hand on the back of Mandy's hand and patted it twice. Mandy took out a Bluetooth and put it on his ear nodded. Yu Ming pretended to be stupid and asked, "What's it?"
"I will introduce myself first. I am a contestant in the Ice and Snow Selection Competition. We are currently in a deadlock. Spiders need sapphires to select people, and independent investigators need sapphires to complete the commission. We have mastered sapphires, but the purpose is to capture spiders. It seems that the three of us are not satisfied with the current situation."
Yu Ming asked: "What do you want?"
"I want to play a game."
“How to play?”
"How to play is kept confidential, but it will definitely not be played in City A." Bingxue asked, "Games should pay attention to the rules of the game. If you are willing to trust us, four hours later, you will wait at the terminal of bus No. 12, and a taxi will pick you up. Similarly, we will pick up spider candidates who are interested in playing games. The game will be set by us. Independent surveyors and spiders answer questions. The rules of the game are that you win. Your opponents will pay us according to the rules. If your opponent wins, we are not interested in you and do not ask you to pay any price, so the winner will not be lost to you. Can you tell me first, how many independent candidates will participate?"
Mandy stretched out two fingers, and Yu Ming replied: "Two."
"Okay. There are three people participating in your opponents, namely No. 1, No. 2, No. 3. Your numbers are No. 4 and No. 5." Bingxue said: "Please bring a laptop. If you are afraid of being exposed, you can bring a mask or a mask. We can also provide voice change and bite your teeth, wishing you a happy game."
Yu Ming hung up the phone to see Mandy, and Mandy lightly locked her eyebrows: "Ice and snow have become cunning, this time we are leveraging the force to fight with the spider to death. If we win, the spider will be more vigilant against independent investigators. If the spider wins, our vigilance against spider will be stronger."
Yu Ming nodded: "But we have no choice. If we don't participate in the competition, the signboard of China's independent investigator will be ruined."
There is a saying that Bingxue is right. Judging from the current situation, Spider, Bingxue and the independent investigator have not achieved their goal. It is the best way to start a bet to decide the outcome.
Mandy said: "The selection method of independent investigators is to recommend the candidates, and the golden membership is launched, and then the assessment is concentrated together. Ice and snow has a special headhunting company. They will look for like-minded people and invite them to join the candidates. The selection method of spiders is unknown. According to speculation, they are members who will notice outstanding people in their work and life, and notify them to select when needed. Spiders' first criterion is ability, ice and snow are the first criterion, and independent investigators' first criterion is trust. For the three organizations, independent investigators have the most candidates, spiders have the least, and ice and snow have a big appetite. They want to break the spiders' candidates at one time for several years."
Yu Ming asked: "It's easy to contact me. How can I contact spiders?"
Mandy replied: "The three organizations have external contact information. Spiders leave emails, ice and snow leave phones, and we have phones and addresses."
The independent investigators are located in an office building in London and are also the location of the Chairman's Committee's office, and they are legal societies.
Yu Ming nodded: "It seems that Spider Boss has allowed their candidates to participate in the competition."
Mandy said: "I feel that Bingxue's style has changed a lot this time. They have always thought they were just warriors and have never used the interests of the two organizations to make arrangements."
Yu Ming handed Mandy the roasted chicken wings: "I care more, will they break their promise? If the spider candidate wins, will they use force to control it?"
"This is impossible. This is a three-organization contract. The rules of the competition must be abide by. Assuming that Ice and Snow violate the rules and catch several candidates, then we, like Spiders, will no longer trust Ice and Snow. Ice and Snow are relatively proud people. Ice and Snow are chivalrous spirits. The organization will not admit that Ice and Snow have won the victory of Ice and Snow in violation of the rules, because it will be impossible to participate in the competition with rules next time." Mandy praised Chicken Wings: "Dear, your skills are good."
Yu Ming said humbly: "This is buying ready-made pickled barbecue wings. As long as they are cooked, the taste will basically be the same."
"I can try my crafts another day." Mandy smiled: "My mother was a star chef when she was young. It was because she had such crafts that my grandfather agreed to my father marry my mother."
Yu Ming asked: "Why are your parents divorced? They are not intentionally interfering with **, they just want to understand. Most divorces in China are due to money, third parties, etc.."
Mandy replied: "Many American divorces are due to third parties, and there are also money reasons, but the proportion is relatively small. The reason for my parents' divorce is that neither party is willing to give up their jobs. My mother hopes that my father can go to Australia. My father hopes that my mother can come to Washington. Both parties arranged jobs for each other, but neither party was satisfied with the other's interference in their life trajectory. My father inherited some machismos in my grandfather. He believed that it is normal for the heroine to be inside and the hero to be outside. My grandfather supported it very much. When I was five years old, both parties had no agreement on this issue. At this time, my mother had a boyfriend in Australia and took the initiative to file for divorce. At the age of eighteen, I chose Australian nationality, but I would rather live in the United States and I could take time to visit my father every week. My mother didn't understand, so I told her that she had a new family, and my father was still alone, and my father needed me even more."
Yu Ming asked curiously: "Why didn't your father reorganize his family?"
"Disappointed." Mandy said: "My father still loves my mother now. My grandmother passed away very early. My grandfather built two graves next to each other, right near his own farm. My grandfather passed away seven years ago and my father buried them together. At that time, my father told me that he envied what grandfather often said, "Hold your son's hand and grow old with you."
Mandy's words are in Chinese, Yu Ming explained: "It is to hold your hand and grow old with you. However, this sentence was originally a praise of the comrades between men and men. The original words mean that they do not abandon comrades, and do not give up comrades. Later, it became a word between men and women, indicating that they are very loving and loyal to their lifelong companions. However, now they advocate that life is short and it is the right time to seek happiness."
Mandy nodded and said, "There are many such partners in the United States who have been trusting for their whole lives. However, Americans have a high divorce rate, but there is a strange phenomenon. People who have divorced once have a very high chance of divorce for the second time. I learned that Chinese people love first and then have sex, and many Americans have love because of sex."
"Are we too deep a discussion?" Yu Ming asked.
"Haha." Mandy nodded with a smile: "Dear, you are still a more traditional Chinese male."
Yu Ming himself didn't know whether he was traditional or non-traditional, so it was always a good thing for someone to praise him. Yu Ming looked at his watch and said, "It's time for us to set off."
"Is there still time?" Mandy looked at the food in front of her and smiled, "I'm a foodie."
"Everyone is a foodie." Yu Ming stood up, reached out and pulled Mandy up and shouted to the surroundings: "I'm in a hurry to exchange raw meat for cooked meat, one pound for four taels."
"I'll change." A mother from a barbecue family nearby replied immediately, and a young man next to her also came to exchange.
Yu Ming disposes the pickled products and changes to a bag of cooked food. Mandy takes the cooked food and kisses Yu Ming on the cheek: "Dear, you are so capable."
It feels so comfortable to be praised by the beauty. If it were Du Qingqing, he would definitely say that Yu Ming was ruined. If it was someone else, he would bargain with everyone. He would nag about losing money along the way, and he would also compare the other party's food brands, purchase land, price, etc. Mandy might think in his heart, but he respected Yu Ming's method very much and would not nag. Instead, he turned raw food into cooked food and enjoyed eating.
