Chapter 374 – Yi Gui
Update: 2013-05-30
The next day, Qin Yang came to National Security early.
Jiang Feng walked into the office with a packet of information, his face was a bit gloomy, after seeing Qin Yang, he closed the door of the office and placed the information on the table, saying, “This is what I ordered to check yesterday, and later found it in some of the more classified folders, but it should belong to the batch that was destroyed, but it might have been the staff negligence at that time that left such a short information. You can take a look.”
Qin Yang took the information folder. After opening the bag, he found that it was a few sheets of somewhat yellowed paper with some some photos attached to it.
The first thing that caught his eyes was a few yellowed photos, the photos were taken somewhat blurred, it seemed that in a deep forest in a clearing, a line of people stood in it, these people were dressed strangely, there were Taoist priests, and there were also what seemed to be ancient chivalrous warriors, and among these people, there was a group of young children, about fourteen or fifteen years of age, but couldn’t make out the expression on these people’s faces, but could see that the movements of a boy at the center seemed to be extremely intense. .
And some of the rest of the photos also look like tracking shots, while the text on the paper is recorded the location of the photos taken, time and other information. It was only when he turned to the last page that Qin Yang saw some useful descriptions from the paper that seemed to have been torn from a notebook.
“In the year 00, the New Year of the Century, a mysterious forbidden place in the country initiated a selection activity, the purpose of the activity is unknown, the process of the activity is unknown, and the location is unknown. The participants are estimated to be four people, among them there are two sons of world-class tycoons, the remaining two are the sons of the more influential and powerful clans of the contemporary era, we paid close attention to this, countless times we followed up and investigated, but they all ended in failure, the strangest thing is that all of the agents who were repatriated back to the country lost this memory, and after questioning them they all said that nothing had happened but that they were out on vacation, this matter attracted a great deal of attention from us, I sent people to investigate one after another, but all the agents sent out suffered memory loss, and two of them met untimely deaths. In March, in the third month of fruitless investigations, one of the agents stored a list within his body before losing his memory and managed to bring it back, among the participants were Liu Shen’s Liu Han, Chu Yu Ren’s son Chu Xiao, Sun Hao Yang’s daughter Sun Miao, and Fu Boyang’s son Fu Bai, and just as we continued to delve deeper into our investigations, we were met with unprecedented resistance, including from within our group.”
Just such a simple introduction.
Qin Yang frowned, secretly saying, “It looks like it’s not just myself who suffered from an untimely amnesia, there are also some others, but why isn’t my name in the list? Oh right, according to Liu Han, I was eliminated.”
“Who wrote this diary?” Qin Yang asked.
“The previous minister, Yi Gui.” Jiang Feng said, “Qin Yang, this information should belong to the destroyed, you know what I mean, the four names stated on this piece of paper, I think you know very well, two world class tycoons, two powerful people, Yi Gui was suspended precisely because of too much investigation into this matter, I don’t know why you’re suddenly interested, you’d better not look into it.”
Said Jiang Feng collected all the information in his hand, but Qin Yang took a few photos and stuffed them into his pocket, Jiang Feng also took it as if he didn’t see it, took the lighter and burned the information bag, Qin Yang looked at the flames flickering and said, “Where is Yi Gui now?”
“Psychiatric hospital.” Jiang Feng said in a deep voice.
Qin Yang was quite surprised, a senior cadre retired to this level? Jiang Feng said, “He’s already mentally deranged, you won’t be able to ask him anything by looking for him.”
“I know.” Qin Yang got up and said, “In which hospital?”
Jiang Feng glanced at him and threw over a document, Qin Yang carefully looked at a few eyes it was exactly Yi Gui’s psychiatric appraisal information, after reading it, he left. Jiang Feng burned the same appraisal information in his hand, watching the one-inch photo of Yi Gui on it slowly turn into ashes, and said in a deep voice, “Teacher, this is as far as I can help you.”
Qin Yang drove to the psychiatric hospital.
After saying a few words to the doctor on duty, he walked through the place where a group of patients were gathered, and came to a relatively clean room, and was seeing an old man in his seventies with white hair squatting in a corner of the balcony, holding a book in his hand, but not reading it, just mumbling something, and every now and then his body shivered.
“I want to talk to him alone.” Qin Yang said.
The doctor said, “Alright, but be careful, he is a patient, don’t be too irritating.”
After the doctor left, Qin Yang moved a chair and sat on the balcony, looking at the muddled old man, lit a cigarette and said in a deep voice: “If you continue like this, even if you save your own life, you won’t be able to break that maze.”
But Yi Gui didn’t seem to hear it, still holding a book, his body shivering, his mouth chanting so much that he couldn’t hear it at all.
“My name is Qin Yang, son of Qin Lie, one of the people who was eliminated from the Kunlun Immortal Mountain Selection back then.” Qin Yang continued.
“Pah.”
The book in Yi Gui’s hand fell to the ground, but immediately afterward, he picked it up again and continued the way he was just now.
“Don’t you want to not know the truth?” Qin Yang asked.
The chanting voice stopped and was replaced by a sigh.
Yi Gui will be in the hands of the book carefully closed, put aside, in the rise, but changed a temperament, that is the breath of the superior, in Yanjing behind the scenes for more than ten years to exercise out of the dare to call anyone’s bluff, still cloudy eyes leaked out a road of light, do not allow anyone dare to ignore.
“You read the passage I wrote?” Yi Gui asked.
“Not bad.” Qin Yang glanced at him and got up, “Qin Yang, Kunlun’s enemy.”
Yi Gui shook his hand and said, “You’re the kid who rebelled against Kunlun’s rules because of a girl back then, right? How is that girl now?”
“I don’t know.” Qin Yang paused and said, “I forgot.”
“It’s also true that Kunlun would never allow a child to know their secrets.” Yi Gui sighed and said, “How did you know that you had lost a memory? Their means of erasing memories is very special, and if no one mentions it they don’t even know that they have a lost memory.”
“Someone else told me.” Qin Yang said, “You know a lot.”
“I do know quite a lot, but they don’t know how much I know, and it’s precisely this that they won’t feel at ease, that’s why I’m here.” Yi Gui smiled and shook his head, saying, “Give me a cigarette.”
Qin Yang handed him one and lit it for him, saying, “It’s reasonable to say that your people all lost their memories after they went out, so you wouldn’t know too much even if you did.”
“With one losing his memory, wouldn’t I still be prepared?” Yi Gui said, “I thought into ways to make enough preparations on my men, implanted wiretaps, pinhole photos, and even on a single hair I made some preparations to be able to steal information. They are losing their memories, but the instruments are not.”
“What’s their chosen downfall?” Qin Yang asked.
“I’m not too sure, but I know that their purpose is to select someone among the five who can shine in the future, Kunlun Immortal Mountain has been mysterious for a long time, and several rich and powerful people naturally won’t let go of this opportunity for the sake of their children.” Yi Gui said.
“It’s just such a selection process, there’s no need for them to have to push you to this point, right?” Qin Yang said.
Yi Gui took a hard breath and said, “Indeed, it shouldn’t be, but a few of my men seemed to have gotten into their top decision-making circle and knew something they shouldn’t have known. So something bad happened to them.”
“So did you know?” Qin Yang said.
Yi Gui shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”
“They also don’t know if you know?” Qin Yang said.
Yi Gui nodded.
“I’m wondering why you’re investigating such a selection?” Qin Yang looked at Yi Gui and said, “It seems like this is unnecessary, right?”
“My grandson also participated, but died.” Yi Gui said in a deep voice, “If I was at home at that time, I would have never allowed my grandson to participate in a so-called mysterious selection either, and he wouldn’t have lost his life in this way.”
“With your status at the time, it seems that your grandson’s death can be investigated openly and honestly, right?”
“But the cause of death they gave me was that my grandson died because of a heart attack.” Yi Gui said with some agitation in his voice, “A reasonable piece of information that I couldn’t resist, that’s why I turned to a covert investigation. Qin Yang, can you understand my pain? He was only eight years old!”
“I understand.” Qin Yang said, “Can you tell me which girl I flipped out over at that time?”
“I’m not sure, I only know that it was also a girl from Kunlun.” Yi Gui shook his head and said, “Qin Yang, why do you still want to investigate? Since it’s already in the past why don’t you live well?”
Qin Yang laughed, “I don’t like too many people to be godly in front of me and say things that happened ten years ago you’ve forgotten about it or something like that that owes me a beating, in addition, I injured two people from Kunlun and took a sword that they called the treasure of the town, I’ve already tied a knot, so I might as well probe a little bit more clearly, so I can also be prepared for the situation.”
