C584 A Conspiracy from Three Years ago



C584 A Conspiracy from Three Years ago

"Sir, did you like this necklace?"    

    

When I heard the pretty saleswoman's voice, I came back to my senses and pointed at the necklace. "Why is this necklace here?"    

    

"I don't understand what you mean?"    

    

She looked at me in confusion.    

    

At this time, Li Xue lightly tugged on my arm: "Brother Yang, what's wrong?"    

    

I didn't reply to Li Xue's words. Instead, I stared at the female shop assistant and asked, "Is its name Xian Yuan?"    

    

"Oh, mister is a knowledgeable person."    

    

"Take it out and let me see."    

    

The employee smiled and immediately passed the Immortal Abyss to me.    

    

I carefully held the Immortal Abyss in my hands and gently stroked every single line on it. I remembered something Feng Yao had once said to me.    

    

"The Immortal Abyss came from the hands of famous jewelry master Chen Shiying, whose entire body was made of natural crystal flowers. The concept behind it was that the spreading wings of the swan would land on the surface of the water, and the lines around the swan would form ripples on the surface of the water. "In addition, this swan also has three diamonds inlaid on its surface. Some diamonds are embedded around the diamonds, adding a bit of luster to the necklace."    

    

When I finished, there was applause.    

    

I subconsciously turned my head to look and saw a well-dressed middle-aged man walk over. He said in admiration, "Well said. It seems that this young man is an insider from the industry."    

    

"You're mistaken. I am merely an outsider. The reason why I know this much is because someone told me about the Immortal Abyss's origin."    

    

When the employee saw the middle-aged man, her expression immediately became more respectful: "General Manager."    

    

"Mm, go and busy yourself. I'll take care of this guest."    

    

The employee immediately walked towards the distance.    

    

"Lin City, I know a lot of people. I'm quite curious about who the person you're talking about is."    

    

"She is not in Lin City, nor is she a person of the jewelry world. She is the owner of this necklace."    

    

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically when he heard this.    

    

'Could it be that there is a secret behind all of this? ' Otherwise, why would he have such an expression? Something abnormal must have happened.    

    

Then, with an unnatural tone, he said, "Please continue your selection."    

    

When I saw that he was about to leave after saying those words, I immediately called out to him, "Halt! I haven't finished asking. You can't leave."    

    

"I'll have the shop assistant help you choose. I'm sorry."    

    

He walked on.    

    

I fiercely rushed forward and grabbed his shoulder. I coldly said, "I told you to stop. Did you not hear me?"    

    

The security personnel inside the jewelry store hastily ran over and used a commanding tone to make me loosen up. Furthermore, they wanted to chase me out of the store.    

    

They were stunned by my shouting, and then they looked angry and swung their rubber rods at me.    

    

At this moment, the brothers outside had already ran in. One of them suddenly rushed over and kicked the security guard who was about to make a move onto the ground.    

    

The middle-aged man hurriedly shouted, "Stop!"    

    

I didn't even look at the person on the ground and instead stared at the middle-aged man. "As far as I know, there's only one Immortal Abyss. Why do you have one here?"    

    

He waved the guards away, and I signalled to my brothers to stop and waited for his answer.    

    

Everyone in the industry knows that this necklace is fake, but its high imitation level is already comparable to an Immortal Abyss. Whether it's the material, process, it is exactly the same as an Immortal Abyss, the only difference is, it's not from Master Chen Shiying's hands, so it's naturally not as valuable as an Immortal Abyss. That's fine, since we don't plan to sell it, it's just used as a decoration to attract people.    

    

The general manager spoke with confidence.    

    

My frown deepened. I didn't care at all about what he had said after walking around with me for a long time.    

    

"All of this has nothing to do with me. I want to know about the Immortal Abyss. You know what I need to ask."    

    

I looked at him coldly, seeing every change in his expression.    

    

"You're not here to buy ornaments, you've simply come for the Immortal Abyss?"    

    

My heart skipped a beat. His asking made it even more clear that there was something fishy going on. Could it be that Feng Yao's father bought the necklace here?    

    

Oh right, she once said that her father bought the Immortal Abyss at Lin City and encountered a car accident on his way back. The car accident was planned by the mastermind and the Yellow Springs.    

    

Or was it just a coincidence?    

    

My intuition tells me that the second possibility is unlikely. Since it is a conspiracy, the necklace could be a bait that the other party intentionally threw out.    

    

The more he thought about the perverted general manager of the jewelry store and the other things he said, the more he felt that there was a big problem. Perhaps he could get some useful clues from him.    

    

Thinking of this, I wanted to swindle him.    

    

"That's right. I've come here for the Immortal Yuan. Since you've said it like that, then let's be frank. It would be best for you to explain everything from the beginning to the end. That friend of mine has a bad temper and also bears a deep grudge."    

    

His expression changed again and he sighed helplessly, "Please come with me.    

    

Hearing his words, I was suddenly filled with anticipation, hoping to get some useful information.    

    

Li Xue's tone was a little disappointed as she whispered, "Didn't you buy me jewelry?"    

    

"I'm sorry."    

    

I'm terribly sorry, not because of what she said, but because I can't tell her for the time being.    

    

A few minutes later.    

    

We went to the general manager's office and sat on the sofa while the brothers waited outside.    

    

He stared blankly at her for a while and then said, "I can't do anything shameful in my life, otherwise I won't be able to sleep and eat for the rest of my life. The incident three years ago has been haunting me like a demon."    

    

"Tell me everything."    

    

"Three years ago, when our store was just opened, if we wanted to keep the old stores down, we had to make a big deal out of it, and at the same time, we had to quickly raise the popularity of the century-old in Lin City. At that time, we were just thinking about how we could quickly raise our fame, find the door all by ourselves, and bring us an internationally renowned grand master's jewel, the Immortal Abyss. "    

    

"Do you still remember what that person looked like?"    

    

"There's a very scary scar on his face, about 1.7 meters tall. He's chubby, around 30 years old."    

    

Damn it!    

    

Scarface again.    

    

"Go on."    

    

The final item is the Immortal Abyss. He said that as long as the capital of the necklace, all of the extra money from the auction will go to our jewelry shop, and for such a good deal, I would like to buy it. Even if I don't earn a single cent, I will accept this deal because with the Immortal Abyss's influence, we can quickly increase the fame of this shop.    

    

"Humph!" There is no such thing as a pie in the sky. "    

    

"Actually, I also thought back to that time, how could there be such a good thing?" Could that person have some ulterior motive? But when I thought about it, it was only good for our store, nothing bad, so I agreed. He wanted me to make a show to let everyone know that we are auctioning the Immortal Abyss. He especially mentioned Hong Kong City and wanted us to do some advertising in it. "    

    

The other side's goal was very obvious. They wanted to lure Feng Yao's father over, then set up an ambush midway, and kill him midway on his way back.    

    

"Later on, the auction started and many rich people were attracted to it. Amongst them, many people from Hong Kong and Hong Kong, as well as the Immortal Abyss, auctioned the most intensely, and the final price was two times higher than the capital. This made us extremely happy, and we even invited the buyer for a meal.    

    

He sighed again, "But not long after the auction ended, I found out that the buyer was in a car accident on his way back to Hong Kong, and the couple died."    

    

His words confirmed my conjecture, and it was now certain that this was a premeditated operation.    

    

In addition, I have two valuable clues.    

    

First, Scarface.    

    

Secondly, the other party was very familiar with Feng Kun and also very familiar with Feng Yao. She knew that the latter especially liked the Immortal Abyss necklace and knew that the former was willing to do anything for her daughter, so she set up a conspiracy to kill Feng Kun.    

    

Before, Feng Yao and I only guessed that the scarred face was the person who received Huang Quan, but now, we have confirmed that the two scarred faces are the same person.    

    

The knife-scarred man was the mastermind, so the latter must be the mastermind behind this conspiracy.    

    

As long as he found the mastermind, he would be able to find Feng Yao's true enemy.    

    

In addition, from the second point of view, the circle of people looking for the mastermind has shrunk again, which further confirms my previous guess that this person is living by Feng Yao's side.    

    

Whoosh … It seemed necessary to tell her these facts.    

    

At this moment, the general manager's voice entered his ears, "After hearing the news of their deaths, I carefully thought over the whole matter from start to finish. Only then did I finally figure out what he was going to do, but it was not that certain."    

    

He stopped and exhaled heavily.    

    

Then, with a timid expression on his face, he continued: "One night, a man in a black robe appeared before me. He wore a terrible mask, and his voice was especially sinister, and he warned me not to say anything about it. At that time, I knew that the accident had not been an accident. It had been a conspiracy, and I had been involved in it for a while.    

    

The black-robed assassin and I were old acquaintances, and we nearly died in their hands several times in a row.    

    

F * ck, what kind of character was this mastermind? All sorts of actions were off the charts, and he was definitely a powerful character. How could she not notice such an incredible character living by Feng Yao's side? How strange.    

    

I retracted my thoughts and sighed.    

    

Everything seemed to be predestined. He was going to see Li Xue's family soon, and on a whim, he was going to buy jewelry for her. At that time, if she met any neighbors, she would have the right to show off.    

    

He had never expected that he would come across such a big accident. It was truly a lucky day.    

    

I raised my head to look at the general manager. "You chose to tell me these things. Aren't you afraid that the black robed man will harm you?"    

    

"I've held this matter in my heart for too long, it's almost devilish. Those are two lives, it feels so much easier to talk about it now. It's been so long, there shouldn't be any problems."    

    

He sounded like he was trying to comfort himself.    

    

"Since you've already told them what happened, they won't take the trouble to deal with you. As for the other matter, you don't know about it, but the other party is using it. There's no need for you to feel so guilty."    

    

I indifferently said those words and prepared to leave.    

    

The next second.    

    

His cellphone rang.    

    

I took out my cell phone absentmindedly. When I saw the caller ID, I immediately frowned.
