Chapter 169

"No, no, he didn't pay the waiter." Anjie said, "as you can see, I checked the kettle for the first time, and the water in the kettle that poured water for us was OK."

"Then how did he poison it?" Nana more puzzled, "the more you say, the more confused I am."

"It's easy." Chen Ke said, "he did not poison in the kettle, but in the cup."

Anjie nodded.

"Although there are many teapots for pouring water, he can't be sure which pot the waiter will use to pour water for us, but the cupboard for taking the cups is fixed. The waiter must go to the nearest cupboard to get the cups. The cups are taken out one by one in order. At that time, the cups on our table were already taken, and there was no problem. We just need to change Anjie So the first cup that jumped out must have been given to Anjie, who had poisoned it in advance. " Said Anjie.

"What a sinister old man! It's impossible to prevent. " Chen Ke said, "he has to kill you."

Anjie nodded, with a twinkle of worry in his eyes, but at the same time, there was a thrill that no one else could detect.

"It's amazing," Nana said. "All of a sudden, where are so many mysterious old men? First the old man on the plane, and now the old man who poisoned Anjie, where did they come from

"It's hard to say now, but I think it must have something to do with this ancient sword. They will certainly reappear." Anjie said, "next time we must not let him run away so easily."

Anjie was right. Sure enough, the next day, they saw the old man again.

The next day, Peter still didn't seem to make any progress and didn't give Chen any explanation, but he just asked Linda to take them on the tour.

Chen Ke didn't want to go for Anjie's safety, but Anjie insisted on going. Chen Ke knew that he was determined to catch the old man.

"If he is really poisoning, then I'm really curious. He knows me too well, my past. I really want to know who he is Said Anjie.

On the way, Chen Ke asked the teacher, "what did Peter tell you last night when he asked you to come over?"

The teacher shook his head and said, "it's nothing but asking the questions before, how did the intruders get out, what route they took, how many of them, and what kind of accent they had. And so on. They've been asked countless times. "

"What about the progress of his own investigation? Do you think we can get the compensation and go back early? " Chen Ke asked.

"Nothing to do." "Teacher" said, "I said that he couldn't find out anything, but it's the first time that I found out that Peter is in such a mess. According to reason, he shouldn't be. Even if he compensated us, it's not a huge loss for him. There's no need to worry about it. He looked as if he had some great distress

Chen Ke nodded and said, "anyway, he doesn't have to fight back tonight. I don't have time to spend with him here."

"Don't worry, I don't think he can do anything." The teacher said.

On this day, Linda took Chen Ke and them to the dripping blood cathedral.

Dripping blood cathedral is one of the few traditional Orthodox churches in St. Petersburg. The interior of the church is full of mosaics based on Old Testament stories. With a colorful onion top, it is a typical architectural style of Russian Orthodox Church in the 16th and 17th centuries.

"There is no other scenic spot in St. Petersburg. I feel that apart from the church, there is a church." Chen Ke said.

"Relatively speaking, this church is a more interesting place. Other places are historical sites, or big libraries. They will only be interested unless they fully understand the history of Russia. I'm afraid it's even more boring for you to go, so I chose this place." Linda explained with a smile. "Besides, Mr. Peter just called to tell us not to go far, so I dare not take you far."

"Peter?" The teacher asked, "why?"

"He didn't say that," Linda said, "but he seemed to be in a good mood."

Chen Ke and the "teacher" look at each other and see that the "teacher" has a worried face.

Chen can't help guessing, is it really what Peter found?

"Is there something that Peter, the old man, has come up with?" Chen Ke said to the teacher.

"It shouldn't be." "Teacher" some puzzled said.

"Unless he gets the sword back." Chen Ke said.

"Will it?" "Teacher" said, "if he does find it, he will not inform us. He will take it secretly and compensate us according to the cost price. This will not only restore his reputation in the industry, but also get the sword at the cost price. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

Chen Ke thinks what the teacher said is reasonable. It seems that if Peter told them that he didn't find any clues after he went back, he must have found the sword.Originally, this group of people had something on their mind. In addition to Peter's sudden move, they had no interest in playing. They were all worried.

"Forget it," the teacher said to Linda. "I don't think everyone is in a good state. Let's go back."

Others agreed, only Nana was a little reluctant, "I haven't had enough..."

Chen can stop her with her eyes, but she doesn't go on.

"Since everyone is not in the mood, let's go back." Said Linda.

Linda took us back.

They are walking back. The street is crowded. The "teacher" and bodyguards are walking behind, while Chen Ke Anjie and Chen Ke are walking in front. Suddenly, someone pushes Anjie and Chen Ke hard. They are caught off guard. They suddenly run out and fall on the road. At this time, a van is passing by. Fortunately, there is a traffic jam on the road, and the speed of the van is not very fast Come on, squeak and stop the car immediately.

Nana exclaimed. The driver of the van was a big, fat Russian man, sticking his head out of the window and swearing at Chen Ke and Anjie.

Anjie and Chen Ke look back in a hurry. As soon as they look back, they see the old man poisoned yesterday. They smile mysteriously and immediately turn around and rush into the crowd.

"Get him!" Chen Ke yelled to the "teacher" and the bodyguards, who obviously saw the scene and immediately chased the old man in the direction of his disappearance.

Chen Ke and Anjie also stood up and ran after the crowd.

Anjie and ChenKe are good at sprinting, and the bodyguards are tough. They may be good at fighting, but they are not good at running. Soon Anjie and ChenKe get rid of the bodyguards and chase the old man.

The calm flow of the crowd was suddenly scattered by the chase. Everywhere they went, the crowd fluctuated and watched the two Asian boys chasing a white haired old man with a look of surprise.

The old man ran very fast. He did not lose the young man. He crossed the streets and alleys and crossed the road. However, it seemed that he was not familiar with it. By the time Anjie and Chen Ke got there, he had already run into a dead alley. There was no way to escape. The alley used to be open, but he didn't know why it was newly built. The cement in the stone crevice had not been found yet It's completely dry.

The old man knew there was no way to run, so he had to turn around. Chen Ke and Anjie were already blocked at the entrance of the alley.

The three men looked at each other, panting, and the bodyguards had not come after them.

"Who are you?" Chen Ke asked out of breath. "Why do you want to harm us everywhere?"

The old man just looked at him, didn't speak, just laughed.

He suddenly came to Chen Ke and Anjie. They thought that the old man was going to do something. They subconsciously stepped back. Then they saw that the old man suddenly turned around and took a few steps to sprint. With an action that Chen Ke had only seen in the movie, they went up the partition wall lightheartedly.

Chen Ke and Anjie are stunned by the old man's quick action, but the old man is an old man after all. Although it's very easy to watch when they go up, when they get to the top, they don't know how, and their legs and feet are a little soft, which makes them feel a little hard.

But at this time, Chen Ke wanted to catch up, but he couldn't catch up. "The teacher" with a group of bodyguards came panting and asked, "who are you?"

Anjie shook his head and said, "let him run away."

"Are you two OK?" Asked the teacher.

"Nothing." Said Anjie.

Chen Ke patted the soil on his body and said, "it's OK, just let the old thing run away again."

"Teacher" also very hate said, "yes, let him run."

"You were just behind, didn't you notice him?" Chen Ke asked.

"No "The teacher said," I just noticed him. I thought he was familiar with his back. Before I could react, I didn't expect that he had already started. Who the hell is this old thing. Angie, did you offend him? Isn't he your friend? "

Anjie shook his head and said, "I don't know him at all."

"That's strange." The teacher said.

"Where's Nana?" Chen Ke suddenly asked the teacher, "didn't you leave anyone to protect her?"

"Oh, no!" "The teacher" seems to have just remembered and said, "I just focused on chasing this old thing, but I forgot her."

Before he finished his words, Chen Ke ran back quickly. He was worried about the old man's plan to get away from the mountain. He was also worried about the woman Linda who was with Nana. Although she had a handle in the hands of "teacher", this woman was insidious and cunning. Who knows if she would take the opportunity to play any tricks.

Chen Ke thought and ran back anxiously. Just ran out of the alley, to see Nana panting to their own run, Linda ran behind.

"Are you all right?" After standing still, they asked each other almost at the same time.

"What can I do for you?" Nana said, "it's you. You fell on the road just now and almost got run over by the car. Are you ok?""It's not rolling." Chen Ke said, "if you don't wait for me in the same place, what are you running for?"

"I'm afraid you have something to do." Nana said, "I ran with her."
