The Epic Revenge Chapter 391: Potion
Gu Qingzhou and Sim were tense, they knew the show was about to start.
The guests were also tired from dancing and slightly drunk.
When the scene was about to end, the adjutant hurried in and whispered in Si Mu's ear.
Simu's expression changed suddenly.
"All members of the military government, please come to the conference hall with me immediately, there are important matters to discuss!" Simu said solemnly.
After he finished speaking, he turned to the conference hall in the backyard.
Gu Qingzhou also followed.
Before leaving, Gu Qingzhou said to Mrs. Yan, "Mum, if someone wants to leave, help me see off the guests."
Mrs. Yan was confused, and saw Gu Qingzhou follow Simu quickly.
The men present, who served in the military government, regardless of their rank, all followed Simu and his wife to the conference hall at the back.
The rain gradually stopped.
The sound of the piano in the flower room softened, but did not stop, probably until all the guests left.
A total of thirteen high-ranking generals of the military government are sitting around the conference hall on the second floor.
Several people were half-drunk and fell asleep involuntarily when they sat down.
The lieutenants stand at the door.
In addition to the lieutenant of the Overseer's Mansion, there are also the generals' personal guards who surround the corridors and doorways.
"Everyone, I have lost a very important document. No one can leave until I find it today!"
Gu Qingzhou sat in the second seat, next to Yan Xinnong.
No one of the dozen high-level executives present said anything inappropriate, as if it was natural for Gu Qingzhou to attend the military meeting.
Si Mu's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood: Through Nie Yun's incident, Gu Qingzhou's prestige in the army is higher than his!
Si Mu stood tall and straight, and his voice was strong, and could be heard almost downstairs.
He knows that there must be someone eavesdropping who is sitting in the flower hall now.
"What file?" someone asked.
Simus groaned.
"It's a top-secret document!" After a moment of silence, Simu replied.
The crowd looked at each other.
Li Ming'an is the most rebellious. He has never put Simu in his eyes. He said, "Young Commander, you lost the top-secret document and should be shot. Do you want us to help you find it?"
The atmosphere was a little weird.
Everyone present held back the smile on their lips. Someone was drunk and couldn't control their emotions, so they laughed out loud.
Si Mu's fist clenched tightly.
Gu Qingzhou Shi Shiran stood up.
"...Generals, this is my banquet, not a military camp! It's the thief's fault that I lost something, not that I didn't lock the doors and windows!" Gu Qingzhou's tenderness was a little bit colder .
The house is quiet.
The generals are no longer mean to Simu.
Indeed, if something is stolen, the responsibility lies with the thief. Blame the owner for not hiding it well. It's a challenge.
"How about that?" Someone asked, "If you want to do a body search, hurry up, it's almost ten o'clock, and you're very sleepy!"
"When the Overseer was here, he never humiliated us like this!" Someone else disagreed with the body search.
A body search is really insulting, do you really think they are thieves?
Everyone talks a lot.
Si Mu's slightly dark face turned completely blue.
He could already see that these generals were arrogant about their military exploits and didn't care about him as a young marshal at all.
If something big happens, he can't preside over it. At this moment, Simu had an unprecedented epiphany!
"No, I won't do a body search!" Gu Qingzhou stood beside Simu, standing upright, actually sassy and heroic.
"What about that?"
If you lost something, you suspect that it was done by the generals, but they don't search the body. Do you want them to hand it over? What is this young couple doing?
The generals have fire in their hearts.
Yan Xinnong remained silent.
He could also see the irritability of the generals and the ignorance of Gu Qingzhou and Simu.
Yan Xinnong just wanted to see what tricks the two of them were going to pull out!
"...What the young marshal lost is a very important personal letter. Only the top officials of the military government are interested in this matter." Gu Qingzhou continued.
Everyone in the room started to roar again.
Even the half-drunk is completely sober.
"Young madam, do you doubt us?" Someone was angry.
"Of course, otherwise why let you all sit here?" Gu Qingzhou said.
The scene is quiet.
Speaking so bluntly, I'm really not afraid!
"Young madam, don't wrong the good people and let everyone's heart be cold!" Deputy General Zhou Chengyu said lightly.
If the thieves are not found today, the lieutenant of the generals who has wronged the generals is spread to the army, and I am afraid that the reputation will be damaged, and it will be even more difficult in the future.
Zhou Chengyu felt that Simu was condoning himself to do stupid things, and he looked at Simu worriedly.
Si Mu felt a little warm in his heart.
Yan Xinnong remained silent.
"Naturally we won't, and we won't wrong any innocent person." Gu Qingzhou said.
After all, she also glanced at Simu.
The scene was under control again, and Sim continued: "That document is very important, and I am very worried about other people peeking at it, so every time I finish flipping it, I will rub a little powder on it.
This powder is a spy material I brought back from Germany, it is pale white, very fine, and easily sticks to the texture of human skin.
The powder is white, but when washed with a special potion, it turns red.
All of you here today, even if you send someone to steal the documents, if you read it, you will have this powder on your hands. Once it is stained, it is difficult to wash off in a short time, and it can only be transparent and hidden after it dries. "
The crowd whispered.
The potion used by spies to write secret letters can be invisible. They have all heard of it and seen it.
Just, do you still have the same powder?
Since it can be made into a potion, it can also be made into a powder, which is very common.
When the generals heard the words, they all believed in the words of Simu.
"My documents, adjutants or others are not interested, unless they are high-level officials of the military government." Simu continued, "Even if that person didn't steal it himself, he would definitely read it if someone else stole it. So, as long as You're a thief, you'll get this powder on your hands.
Now, I have asked people to prepare the potion, and each person has a small bowl in front of them. You put your hands in, and the powder on your hands will turn red under the rinse of the potion, and you will prove your innocence. This potion smells a little weird, but it doesn't hurt the skin. "
The crowd whispered.
This method is not bad.
If you don't do anything wrong, put your hand in the water and take it out when you're done.
Without a body search, they don't feel so bad.
"......If we didn't take it and there was no murderer, how would the young marshal prepare?" Li Mingan attacked again.
Si Mudao: "Then I apologize to you all. I will use my own money to compensate you for one year's military pay!"
These are high officials.
Their salaries are generous.
One year's salary is a very large sum of money.
No one doesn't love money!
Since Si Mu said this, he didn't ask anyone to search their bodies or their family members, just put his hand in the potion prepared by Si Mu, and he might get a lot of money. good deal.
"What if the young marshal goes back on it then?" Li Mingan still insisted on not letting Simu go.
Yan Xinnong stood up at this time and said with a smile: "I'll make a guarantee for the young marshal! If the young marshal has framed you all and he doesn't want to pay, I will call the Overseer immediately and ask the Overseer to come out here. Money!"
The crowd nodded.
"Let's get started!"
Yan Xinnong glanced at Simu and nodded slightly.
Si Mu said to the adjutant at the door: "Go and serve it up!"
Soon, Simu's trusted lieutenant brought thirteen large bowls of water, with a faint and strange medicinal smell, and placed them in front of the generals.
One bowl per person. Next to the bowl, a snow-white towel was placed to wipe everyone's hands.
Includes Sim.
Simus also placed a bowl of potion in front of him.
"This is a potion that will make the powder on your hands appear red. It doesn't react with your skin or anything else, unless it's on the powder," Smu said.
Speaking of this, Si Mu's eyes narrowed slightly.
A little emotion is fleeting.
No one caught it, only Gu Qingzhou saw it.
Gu Qingzhou remained calm and watched Sim's performance.
After a pause, Sim continued: "I also have a bowl of potion in front of me. I sprinkled the powder on the document myself, so my hands were stained a lot. I'll put it in first and show everyone."
Speaking of which, Simu put his hand into the bowl.
Potions are transparent.
Si Mu's hand went in, and then took it out wet.
He wiped it off with the towel next to him and took it out for everyone to see.
One second, two seconds, his hands didn't respond.
About six or seven seconds later, someone groaned.
Everyone looked over and saw Simu's fingers reaching the palm of his hand and starting to turn red.
The red is obvious!
"Sure enough!" Someone said, "German technology is really amazing!"
The red color was very obvious, and it didn't fade away for a while.
A real thief, at this point, almost panicked, right?
Simus glanced.
The generals present had different expressions, but they didn't see the expression that Simu expected.
"This potion is good." Yan Xinnong said first, "Since it is so effective, let's try it, so that the young marshal can feel at ease, and we can also feel at ease!"
"Exactly, save mutual suspicion!"
"This thing can also be used when we build an intelligence agency in the future. Do you have a way to buy it, young commander?"
"I'll talk about this later." Simu said, "It's important to do it in advance."
After clearing his throat, Simu said in a higher voice, "Everyone, please put both hands in the potion in front of you, pause for three seconds, and then dry them with a towel."
The crowd nodded.
Just as they were about to put it down, the lights above their heads suddenly went out.
Darkness engulfed the house all at once.
Everyone was taken aback.
Gu Qingzhou spoke at this time: "It's raining today, and the fuse box of the electric box is broken. It stopped once before."
She called the adjutant again: "Adjutant Wang, go and get the gas lamp and come in. Wait a minute, everyone, and send someone to fix it right away."
Adjutant Wang should be.
Send someone to fix the electric switch and get the gas light.
The light of the gas lamp is also very bright.
"Okay, let's keep playing!" said Si Mu.
Actually, Simu was worried that there would be a flaw in this plan, and that he would be turned against him by them.
It wasn't until the power went out that Sim was sure that his plan with Gu Qingzhou was foolproof.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Sim wanted to hold Gu Qingzhou's hand.
Everything is in Gu Qingzhou's calculation, and every step is correct.
The inner ghost thinks he is smart, but he is stepping into the abyss according to the plan of taking care of the light boat.
