Chapter 76 Are You Married? (Please Collect and Recommend~)

After thinking about it, Cao Gui put all the black money into his [system backpack], and then opened the sack.

As a result, it turned out to be a French girl with blond hair and big waves.

Blonde hair with big waves is a literal meaning, not three adjectives. This girl has a pretty face, and she also has a kind of... um, nobility, giving people the feeling of a noble lady.

It's just that she is not well now, she is tied up, and a cloth ball is stuffed in her mouth, so she can't speak, but her eyes are not covered.

Seeing Cao Gui wearing a white mask, he subconsciously moved his butt back, as if he was very afraid of Cao Gui.

In fact, that girl would be afraid. When she opened her eyes, she came to the basement. There was a man with a white mask standing in front of her. Who wouldn't be afraid?

Cao Gui frowned, glowing with neon lights... he actually still does kidnapping and human trafficking?

Cao Gui squatted in front of her and asked, "Can you speak English?"

The girl was taken aback for a moment, looked at Cao Gui suspiciously, and then nodded: "Um...uh..."

Cao Gui looked at her, raised his finger, and said slowly: "First, I am not the same group as the ones who kidnapped you, so you don't have to be afraid."

"Second, I will let you go now, don't shout, understand?"

The puzzled look on the girl's face became even worse, and she nodded slowly.

Seeing this, Cao Gui pulled the cloth ball out of her mouth, but the girl couldn't close her mouth, she could only babble, the cloth ball had dislocated her temporomandibular joint.

With a click, Cao Gui squeezed his hands and reset her temporomandibular joints. Immediately, the girl's eyes turned red, and tears fell directly.

"Oh...it hurts..."

Cao Gui frowned, squeezed his fingers again, and rubbed her cheeks for her.

"Hmm...thank you..." the girl forced herself to say something with tears in her eyes.

"You're welcome." Cao Gui said, "I'm going to cover your eyes now and send you out, don't shout or shout."

"……it is good"

Cao Gui found a piece of cloth, tied her eyes, and took her to his car.

Then he returned to the building, turned on the fire hydrant, flushed out all the blood, took out another barrel of gasoline, and set it on fire. After doing this, he returned to the car.

Murder and arson are immoral, but here is the neon pole, there is no need to consider moral issues.

"Can you drive?" Cao Gui asked while sitting in the co-pilot, and then took off his mask.

"……meeting."

"Drive yourself to your destination, and then you will be safe." Cao Gui said calmly.

"Oh well."

The girl looked at Cao Gui's face, then got into the car and started the car.

Cao Gui didn't care about her gaze, he was just wearing a mask as a habit before, and he didn't want his face to be blacklisted by French law enforcement agencies.

Now that the job is done and there are no cameras nearby, there is no need to cover the face.

As for the girl in front of her, if she wasn't stupid, she probably wouldn't think of revenge.

Cao Gui took out a calligraphy and painting from under the seat to look at it. Before in the basement, the lights were a bit dim, so he couldn't see it clearly. He only took a rough look. Unexpectedly, this picture turned out to be Qianlong's Autumn Hunting Picture, painted by Castiglione.

Castiglione was a missionary, an Italian, who came to preach in the Qing Dynasty, and later entered the Qing Palace as a court painter, and was known as one of the top ten painters in the Qing court.

This person also participated in the design of the Western Building in the Old Summer Palace.

Cao Gui did not expect to see this painting in the basement of a Jidao organization.

Touching this painting, Cao Gui felt a little flustered. When he was in junior high school, he read a book called "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and he was immediately shocked. He fantasized about becoming a man like Hu Bayi in the future.

For this reason, after the college entrance examination, Cao Gui filled in the application form for his volunteers, and he directly filled in the major of archeology.

It is immoral to go down to the tomb, but the rescue excavation is of great merit, so Cao Gui chose archaeology without hesitation.

It's a pity, after finishing his freshman year, Cao Gui realized something was wrong. What he wanted was to go to the grave to make money and make a fortune. Making money is the goal, and going to the grave is just a way.

Cao Gui, who wanted to pass this point, reluctantly gave up his beloved archaeological career, turned to learn programming languages, and finally became a programmer.

The world is really impermanent.

Cao Gui felt a little emotional, he had never touched any cultural relics in his previous life, but he didn't expect to come across a missing court painting now, although Cao Gui didn't like this so-called "Perfect Old Man".

"Hello, my name is Catherine." The girl in the driver's seat said, "Thank you for saving me."

"Mm, hello." Cao Gui responded lightly without raising his head.

"You seem to like this painting very much?" Catherine continued.

"Well, yes." Cao Gui still didn't look up.

"This painting actually belongs to my family. I still have a few more at home..."

"Huh?" Cao Gui's eyebrows darkened, and he turned his head to look at her steadily.

With a squeak, Kathleen stepped on the brakes to stop, and smiled at Cao Gui:

"Would you like to visit my house? There are still many calligraphy and paintings in my house."

Cao Gui: "..."

These words are familiar.

"A question, are you married?"

"No." Catherine was a little puzzled.

"...Okay." Cao Gui smacked his lips, feeling a little inexplicably disappointed.

...

"This is my home, Siche Manor." Catherine parked the car in front of the gate of a manor, Cao Gui looked up, and was immediately astonished.

This is a huge ancient castle inside, covering an area of ​​more than ten acres.

"Your home...is this place?" Cao Gui asked suspiciously. It stands to reason that people living in such a place would have a lot of security around them. How could they be kidnapped by a group of gangsters?

"I know what you mean." Kathleen shrugged and said helplessly, "My family is already bankrupt, so the security forces can only be reduced as much as possible."

"Moreover, my parents have passed away, and I am the only one supporting it."

"Okay." Cao Gui shrugged, we don't understand the affairs of the people in the city.

"Go in, I'll show you something." Kathleen smiled, and led Cao Gui into the manor. As she said, there were only a few servants in the manor, which seemed very deserted.

Entering the castle, there is a tiger skin carpet in front of the door, while other tables and walls are full of specimens, bones, and horns of various rare creatures.

Jia Fulian took Cao Gui up to the second floor, but on the stairs, Cao Gui saw something different, a copper chicken head.

Cao Gui frowned, but anyone from the Celestial Dynasty would not be unfamiliar with this thing.

"Cavelian, this thing...?" Cao Gui pointed to the chicken head and asked with some doubts.

"That's right, that's why I want you to come here." Catherine said with a smile:

"Thank you for saving me, I will give you this chicken head as a gift."

"However, I would like to ask you to do me a favor. My grandfather's grandfather brought back this chicken head after he returned from overseas wars, but he has always wanted to go to sea to find his deputy, but unfortunately he has not been able to raise funds."

"Later, my great-grandfather raised funds and organized an ocean-going fleet, but never came back."

"Cao, I know you are not an ordinary person, so I wonder if I can ask you to help me find my great-grandfather."

Cao Gui rubbed his nose, this plot... seems familiar.
