Chapter 376 Road Collapse
The booklet only had ten pages. Xu Zhihui saw some numbers written inside, which she guessed were codes. There were also some strange symbols and short sentences, which she guessed were passwords or something like that. Xu Zhihui flipped through the pages and pondered: "Blackwater is not like a company, but more like an organization. This thing should be a passbook, which only senior Blackwater personnel have."
Turning to the last page, the paper folded up. Xu Zhihui unfolded it and saw that it was actually a map, a hand-drawn world map, with smooth painting and lines. The map used circles to mark several locations around the world. One of the red circles was particularly eye-catching, located in the Pacific Ocean, with a small pattern like a castle drawn inside the circle.
Xu Zhihui couldn’t help but exclaimed, thinking: "This place should be the Blackwater headquarters. It seems to be on an island in the Pacific." Although it didn’t indicate which island it was, there was a set of coordinates next to it: 38°12′25″N, 170°22′35″W.
This manual recorded such an important secret of Blackwater. Xu Zhihui was surprised and delighted. She closed the manual and chuckled in her heart: "No wonder Gao Jun locked it in the safe. Now I have found it." She thought again: "Now that I know the location, why don't I go to Blackwater headquarters to take a look?"
He Zhijing heard her exclaim twice and asked hurriedly, "What did you find?" Xu Zhihui held up the manual and said, "This manual reveals the secrets of Blackwater. There is a map in it that marks the locations of Blackwater's branches and headquarters." She added, "Blackwater is not a company, but an organization. The so-called investment bank is just a cover." He Zhijing was surprised: "An organization?" Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "Yes, a huge and mysterious organization."
He Zhijing suddenly became serious. Xiao Huizi knew the secret of Heishui, which would definitely cause trouble. Even the He family and the Xu family would be involved in danger. He said worriedly: "Wife, give this thing back to Gao Jun."
Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "So I asked him to come to me in the evening and I'll give it back to him." He Zhijing smiled, "Okay." He felt a little relieved and remained silent all the way.
Xu Zhihui didn't care at all. She thought to herself, "Why don't I save this information before returning it to Gao Jun?" She quickly took out her phone and took pictures of every page. He Zhijing was startled and asked, "Wife, what are you doing?" Xu Zhihui was surprised and said, "Save it."
He Zhijing asked hurriedly, "Why save it?" He drove the car to the side of the road and stopped. He turned around and looked at Xu Zhihui nervously, saying, "Wife, what are you going to do?" Xu Zhihui saw that his face was tense, and understood what he was worried about. She smiled and said, "Okay, I don't want to do anything. What do you think I want to do?"
He Zhijing said bluntly, "I was worried that you would come to my house." Xu Zhihui smiled guiltily, thinking, "He Xiaoer guessed it. Oh, let's go to the Blackwater headquarters first." He Zhijing said, "I don't object to you doing anything, but the premise is that it can't be dangerous." Xu Zhihui said, "Okay." He Zhijing said, "I asked Yuan Tong to check Zhu Wei and found that he is also a member of Blackwater. It confirms what you said just now, Blackwater is a mysterious organization."
Xu Zhihui said, "He is from Heishui, I am not surprised at all." He Zhijing saw that she said it lightly and didn't know what to say for a moment. Xu Zhihui said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything. Gao Jun won't know if I take the photo, right?" He Zhijing smiled helplessly and said, "Okay."
While the two were talking on the roadside, Xu Zhihui saw that there were many cars stuck in front of the road, and they were stagnant. She wondered, "Why is there a traffic jam?" It was half past twelve, and there shouldn't be a traffic jam at this time. He Zhijing said, "It's hard to say." Then he heard the sirens and more than a dozen traffic policemen riding motorcycles rushed by. At the front of the traffic jam, drivers in groups of three or four stuck their heads out of the window to look, probably because of an accident.
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the car window. He Zhijing turned his head and saw a traffic policeman standing outside. He rolled down the window and said to the traffic policeman, "I'm leaving now." The traffic policeman said, "There's an accident ahead. Let's take a detour."
The team in front began to loosen up and turned back. Some traffic police maintained order, while others instructed drivers to take a detour in the middle of the road. Then there was another sharp noise ahead, and several fire trucks drove past from the other side.
He Zhijing asked, "What happened?" The traffic police frowned and said, "There is a big pothole on the road ahead, and two cars unfortunately fell into it." He Zhijing looked forward for a few times, and suddenly became nervous and asked, "Which road?" The traffic police said, "Tianzhang Road." He Zhijing and Xu Zhihui asked in surprise at the same time, "Tianzhang Road?"
The traffic police said, "That's right." He Zhijing asked hurriedly, "What car fell? How is the driver?" The traffic police took a look and saw that He Zhijing was dignified and had the demeanor of a nobleman, and the lady in the passenger seat was even more beautiful, so he said, "One of them was a bus. We don't know what happened to the people there, and we are doing our best to search and rescue them." He Zhijing was shocked and asked, "Bus?" The traffic police said, "Yes." He Zhijing asked, "Can I go over and take a look?" The traffic police said, "No, please drive away."
He Zhijing turned the car slowly with an uneasy heart, and saw that Old Wu and the cars of Xu's father and mother also turned back from the front. Old Wu shouted through the car window: "Second Young Master, there's a big hole ahead." He Zhijing said: "Okay, let's talk about it when we get back." Old Wu took the lead, and several cars followed and went back from another road.
Seeing that he was depressed, Xu Zhihui asked, "Was that road built by the He family?" He Zhijing said, "My father donated money to build it. The whole road is more than ten kilometers long. In order to thank the He family, the government named the road Tianzhang Road." Xu Zhihui said, "It's been thirty years, right?"
He Zhijing nodded and said, "It's been exactly thirty years. It was renovated five years ago." Xu Zhihui comforted him, "The He family only donated money, it wasn't built by the He family, so if something goes wrong, it can't be blamed on the He family." He Zhijing smiled and nodded, "Of course."
Xu Zhihui fell silent along the way. Things happened one after another in the past two days. It was hard to guarantee that Li Songling was not the one who was causing trouble. She called Kong Ling and asked, "Mrs. Kong, have you still not found Li Songling?" Kong Ling said, "I can't find him. Ah Hui, I'm so sorry." Xu Zhihui hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter, forget it, I'll look for him." She told her not to take it to heart and hung up after saying a few words.
He Zhijing heard her conversation and frowned, "Li Songling is missing?" Xu Zhihui nodded and said, "He hid himself and we can't find him now." He Zhijing said, "Let him hide." Xu Zhihui said angrily, "I should have controlled him yesterday." She thought to herself, "Gao Jun is very important now. I need to find out if he is in the same group with Li Songling."
It was almost two o'clock when we returned to the He family mansion. Four cars drove into the yard. Sun Xiaofei happily welcomed Xu's father and mother into the house. In the living room sat Mr. He and the two aunts, all waiting for everyone to come back before eating.
It was Jiang Minghui's first time to visit the He family, and Sun Xiaofei said happily, "Princess Minghui, welcome." Minghui said, "Mrs. He, you're welcome. Just call me Minghui." Sun Xiaofei smiled and said, "Minghui, you can call me Aunt Fei too." Minghui nodded and said, "Okay."
Everyone was present, Sun Xiaofei ordered dinner to start, and everyone sat down at the table.
Grandpa He asked, "Ah Jing, Ah Hui, did everything go well this morning?" He Zhijing said, "It went well, Grandpa." Xu Zhihui smiled and said, "Grandpa, the store was very popular this morning. There were people inside and outside. It's a good start." Everyone said, "That's great."
Tutu and Xiaoque talked about what happened in the jewelry store. Sun Xiaofei laughed and said, "Ahui's move was very smart. She took the opportunity to promote He's Jewelry. Ahui is much more courageous than me. I wouldn't dare to throw the necklace like that." In a good mood, she said to Mrs. Wu, "Mrs. Wu, turn on the TV. I want to watch today's report."
Mrs. Wu turned on the TV in the dining room and saw a breaking news report on TV. The reporter said: "At about 12:24 today, a road collapsed on Tianzhang Road in Xincheng District, and a large pit with a diameter of about ten meters appeared. According to eyewitnesses, a bus and a taxi fell into it..."
The joyful atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly froze. Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and stared at the news. Sun Xiaofei's mood sank, and she kept muttering, "How could this happen?"
