"What do you mean?" Miao Ying's eyes widened as she looked at Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu suspiciously. "What do you mean you've seen it together?"
"Erm … Yeah?" Zhao Yu quickly turned to Cui Lizhu. "Lil Cui, this concerns my innocence. You have to explain yourself!"
"…"
Cui Lizhu did not speak. She was still staring at the picture on the big screen in a daze. After a while, she closed her eyes and tried to recall. Then she said uncertainly,
"I remember … the woman's clothes on the doll …" Cui Lizhu puffed up her nose and clenched her fists. She looked like she was in pain. "It looks so familiar … I've only seen it recently. Boss, and … and Li Beini and Zhang were also there …"
"Phew …" Hearing this, Zhao Yu finally relaxed. He quickly pointed at Li Beini and Zhang Jingfeng. "Hurry up, the two of you think about it …"
"Impossible!" Li Beini said. "If we've seen this dress before, there's no way we wouldn't remember it!"
"Yeah!" Zhang Jingfeng nodded. "My memory isn't that bad!"
"Wait … The few of us … When did we go to a clothing store together?" Zhao Yu suddenly remembered something.
"Yeah!" Zhang Jingfeng slapped his thigh and said to Zhao Yu. "A few days ago, you wanted to lure the snake out of its hole, so you took us on a tour! We've strolled along the pedestrian street before. Is it … clothes … "
"Oh …" Cui Lizhu suddenly opened her eyes and clapped her hands. She said excitedly, "The Forbidden City of the Qing Dynasty! It's there! "
"Huh? What? "Zhao Yu was stunned." I thought it was the Film City! How could a dress like that appear in the Forbidden City? "
"Yeah?" Li Beini scratched her head. "Why don't I remember anything about it?"
"It's not the dress!" Cui Lizhu ran to the big screen excitedly and pointed at the red dress in the photo. "Look, the doll's dress is red, and there are regular green decorations and wavy patterns on the bottom. Think about it …" she said.
"Doesn't it look like the walls in the Forbidden City?"
"…"
Hearing this, Zhao Yu and the others fell silent. They felt that Cui Lizhu's words were too forceful. How could a dress be related to a wall?
"This is our professional habit!" Cui Lizhu then said, "Make some marks before you make your move. I feel that this red dress is like some kind of mark!
"It might seem a little abstract, but if you look at it from another angle … take a look …"
As Cui Lizhu gestured, Li Beini hurriedly flipped the picture. When everyone took a closer look, they saw that the dress was in an irregular rectangle. It really looked like a wall.
"Look …" Cui Lizhu pointed at the green decorations. "These are the green tiles at the top of the wall, and these ripples are clearly the same as the cloud patterns on the eaves!
"Boss, boss …" Cui Lizhu said to Zhao Yu. "Didn't you suspect that the secret behind the Russian doll was very simple? Look, is there anything simpler than this? "
"This …" Zhao Yu still couldn't believe it. "Isn't it a little too simple? Did the dress represent the wall and the Forbidden City of the Qing Dynasty? This … "
"Indeed, isn't this a little too childish?" Wu Xiumin shook her head. "This is related to an earth-shattering treasure. How could the clues of the Nesting dolls be so childish? Could it be just a coincidence? "
"The dress is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's at least a triangle," Cui Lizhu insisted. "But the Russian doll's dress is almost the same from top to bottom. Have you seen a square dress before?"
"Yes, it's an apron!" Zhang Jingfeng said. Feeling that it didn't quite fit the situation, he quickly retreated.
"Everyone …" Li Beini suddenly spoke. "I just checked. The eaves of the Forbidden City of the capital don't have this kind of cloud pattern. They're all kinds of beasts!"
"This …" Her words caught everyone's attention.
Wait a minute, wait a minute …
Zhao Yu thought to himself. Qing Dynasty Forbidden City … Qing Dynasty Forbidden City …
Could it be …
Before this, Zhao Yu had pondered this question no less than a hundred times. If the Japanese wanted to bury the treasure, where would be the safest place to do so?
Now that he thought about it, if they really did bury the treasure in the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City, what would the situation be like?
It was dark under the light!
The most dangerous place was also the safest place!
Who would have thought that the treasure would be buried in such an obvious place?
Holy sh * t …
Thinking about this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but shiver and break out in a cold sweat.
That's right!
The Qing Dynasty Forbidden City was an important historical building. In the future, people would only protect it and wouldn't demolish it. So, hiding the treasure here was the best way to prevent it from being exposed!
The Japanese had been in Feng Ping for so many years, it wouldn't be difficult for them to dig out a secret hiding place in the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City …
Could it be … that the answer was really that simple?
The Russian doll was pointing to the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City? That batch of shocking treasures was hidden there?
Everyone present was an elite detective. Zhao Yu thought so, and everyone else's thoughts changed drastically.
Especially Li Beini. After a series of rapid typing on the keyboard, she said to the crowd, "During the occupation of Feng Ping, the Japanese once maintained and renovated the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City for several years. Many of the rooms were built by them … so …"
"Zhao Yu …" At this point, Miao Ying and Zhao Yu looked at each other and exchanged opinions.
"Mm!" Zhao Yu nodded. "Whether Xiao Cui's guess is right or not, we have to make a trip to the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City!"
"But …" Li Beini looked at the information and said, "The Qing Dynasty Forbidden City is more than 60,000 square meters and has more than 500 rooms. It's so big, how are we going to find it?"
"I've been there!" Cui Lizhu said excitedly. "Not all the houses have that kind of cloud pattern!"
"Plus," Ma Jichun said, "we can look for experts!"
"Then all the more reason not to wait!" Miao Ying snapped her fingers at Ma Jichun and said, "If our guess is right, then Seraph's people are probably near the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City!"
"I understand! I understand … "Ma Jichun quickly took out his phone." I'll report to Captain Li and ask for backup! "
"Wait!" Zhao Yu suddenly stopped him and said, "Tell Captain Li that everyone is working in plain clothes. Don't make a big fuss! The masked bastard has already escaped once, I don't want him to do it a second time! "
"Yes!"
Ma Jichun nodded vigorously and was about to make the call, but his phone rang first. After picking up, his face immediately changed and he quickly passed the phone to Zhao Yu.
"Zhao Yu!" Li Jing's voice suddenly sounded from the other end of the phone. "The Russians have replied. The clues about the nesting doll are very likely pointing to the Qing Dynasty Forbidden City in Feng Ping!"
What the …
Zhao Yu was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"
"The Russians told us that the woman on the nesting doll is real!" Li Jing said hurriedly. "She was the wife of a Russian military officer and lived with her husband in the Cossack barracks.
"When the Russo-Japanese war broke out, the Russians were defeated and this woman was trapped in the barracks. In order not to be humiliated, she jumped into a well and committed suicide!
"The Russians recorded this story, and the Japanese also recorded that the Japanese soldiers who lived in the Cossack barracks would often see a female ghost dressed in red!
