Chapter 40 Detective Mao Xiaofei
China, South China Sea Province, on a certain beach.
Mao Xiaofei, wearing beach pants, frowned with a notepad in his hand, and did not look like a person on vacation at all.
His expression of bitterness and deep hatred forms a sharp contrast with the relaxed tourists around him.
"I always feel that there is a problem here, but where will the problem lie?"
Staring at the notebook in his hand, Mao Xiaofei murmured to himself.
Although Mao Xiaofei planned to sell the mine and start to enjoy his life after washing his hands, he always felt more suspicious when he thought about what he had come into contact with Lu Yang a few days ago. Even during the holidays, he couldn't help but think about whether Lu Yang had hidden something from him.
This book records all the important things that happened in the middle from seeing Lu Yang in a cafe before leaving Xichuan Airport. Several of the most eye-catching keywords were specially marked by him, namely: Mao Xiaofei, Qian, Bitcoin, College Entrance Examination Results, Xipanjiang Hydropower Station, and Liu Gong.
Mao Xiaofei thought about it and crossed out Liu Gong's name first.
Lu Yang had never seen Liu Gong before, and Liu Gong didn't know him either. Lu Yang traveled all the way to find a dead otaku in a hydropower station. It was impossible for him to plot against his science fiction novel!
Besides, the main idea of that novel is his Mao Xiaofei's just came up with.
The second person Mao Xiaofei crossed out was his name.
Lu Yang's problem should have nothing to do with him. He originally suspected that Lu Yang knew that he had liquidated his futures trading position, so he turned a corner and gave him money. But he thought carefully later that he had liquidated his position more than 10 days ago, and Lu Yang came to him three days later. During this time, he had never mentioned this matter to anyone. The probability of Lu Yang getting news in these three days was extremely low.
More importantly, Lu Yang brought money to discuss business with him. It was impossible to take only three days. Lu Yang not only found out about his bankruptcy, but also quickly got a huge sum of money out of nothing, and then rushed to him without stopping to deliver it to him!
The third person Mao Xiaofei crossed out was Bitcoin, but he also asked a question mark.
Bitcoin is the direct reason why Lu Yang found him, but this is also the place where Mao Xiaofei thinks the most suspicious points. The reasons given by Lu Yang for mining Bitcoin are all high-sounding correct nonsense. Although these correct nonsense makes him unable to refute, they are definitely not reliable investment reasons. If Lu Yang really has any plans behind it, Bitcoin should be just a cover-up.
At this time, there were only three keywords left on the notebook: Qian, Xipanjiang Hydropower Station, and college entrance examination results.
Brother Mao thought about it again and crossed out his college entrance examination results.
"Lu Yang's indifferent attitude towards the college entrance examination should be the result of some event, not the cause.
"The Qian and Xipanjiang Power Station... are not right, it may not be Xipanjiang Power Station. It is very likely that it is just electricity. Bitcoin may be a cover, and the college entrance examination results should be the result... After reading it again, Lu Yang suddenly had a lot of money. He used Bitcoin as a cover. It may be to seek more money, or it may be to seek more electricity..."
Mao Xiaofei's reasoning is actually very close to the truth.
But the most important part of the entire reasoning is the existence of the Chenxi host. Even if he is a land god, he can't be considered a god!
Therefore, Mao Xiaofei's reasoning inevitably went astray.
"The characteristic of Bitcoin is anonymous transactions, which facilitates money laundering. At the same time, mining Bitcoin also requires electricity. In this way, the three clues of money, electricity, and Bitcoin will be linked together through money laundering. If Lu Yang participated in mining really to launder money, this can also explain why he didn't care about the rate of return. After all, money can be laundered, and it is acceptable to lose a little. And if Lu Yang has even started to do money laundering now, then it can be explained that he doesn't care about college entrance examination results anymore!"
Thinking of this, Mao Xiaofei couldn't help but spread his mind. First of all, money laundering requires stolen money. If stolen money is necessary, it must be involved in gangs. Lu Yang is a good college student, why is it suddenly related to illegal crimes?
However, these speculations were all imagined by him, and they were just one possibility, not necessarily the truth.
Mao Xiaofei decided to confirm that Lu Yang was really not a problem through indirect measures.
Thinking of this, he sent Lu Yang a WeChat message:
"What are you doing?"
...
When Lu Yang heard Chenxi's reminder, he was shocked, "Whose WeChat is it? My parents, Liu Gong or Mao Xiaofei?"
Lu Yang did not bring his original phone when he came to Yongye World this time, but brought a new backup phone.
Last time he returned to Earth, in order to recharge Chenxi as soon as possible, he was actually forced to reveal some flaws. Among them, there were only two people who could directly suspect him through these flaws. One was Gong Liu from Xipanjiang Hydropower Station, and the other was Mao Xiaofei who completed the hydropower station transaction with him throughout the process.
Because he was worried about something happening on the earth when he was on an alien planet, Lu Yang simply left his phone in the old house on Earth and placed it next to the eight-claw robot operated by Chenxi, so that Chenxi could monitor whether these key figures had taken the initiative to contact him.
It seems that his preparations have not been in vain.
"It was the man named Mao Xiaofei. He sent a WeChat message, which read 'What are you doing?'" Chenxi replied.
Mao Xiaofei is not the kind of guy who sends WeChat to harass others. He must have guessed something!
But the good news is that Mao Xiaofei chose to send WeChat instead of coming to him directly, which shows that his suspicion is still only at the guessing stage.
With Lu Yang's cautious attitude towards doing things, since he chose to leave his mobile phone on the earth, he naturally had already made a complete set of preparations for this emergencies, one of which was specifically targeted at Mao Xiaofei.
"Reply to him, I'm playing games in an old house in the northern suburbs of Huadu!"
The eight-claw robot, far away from the old house on Earth, immediately stopped browsing historical financial data, skillfully operated the mobile phone beside him with eight legs, edited the WeChat oral of Lu Yang and sent it over.
Soon, Lu Yang received a new prompt from Chenxi, "Mao Xiaofei asked you on WeChat, 'Have you all the mining machines been ready, and you started playing games at home?"
"Chenxi, the new Victoria 3 released by Swedish stupid donkey the day before yesterday. Have you downloaded it for me and then hang up the phone?"
"At 10:00 the day before yesterday, this machine has downloaded the game according to your command, and will hang up on the main interface for 7 hours every day, and then use another 4 hours to unlock the achievements as quickly as possible."
"Brother Mao has my steam station friends, and I can see my game time and unlocking achievements. Just use my phone to reply to him and say, "I have been waiting for Victoria 3 for a lifetime. I just got the mining machine the day before yesterday and flew back to Huadu to play games." Since he doubted that he would definitely verify the information I left him. I believe that with his reasoning ability, he would definitely get the 'correct answer'."
"receive."
......
"This kid is really playing games?"
As Lu Yang expected, Brother Mao, who was in Nanhai Province, immediately opened his steam account and clicked on the personal homepage of his friend "Diver Goat".
As expected, in just over two days, the game time of "The Goat Who Loves Diving" "Victoria 3" has been as long as 27 hours, and 19 achievements have been unlocked.
Brother Mao then opened Lu Yang's circle of friends and saw a photo taken with his mobile phone two days ago by the user "Lu Yang". It was the photo of the main interface of "Victoria 3" on his computer. The background behind the computer was the study of the old Lu family house that he was very familiar with. There was also a line of text underneath: "Long live the Swedish stupid donkey!"
These discoveries made Mao Xiaofei feel that all his previous reasonings were fed to the dog.
Lu Yang can't hire someone to play a super hardcore niche game like "Victoria 3". Moreover, being able to unlock 19 game achievements in 27 hours not only requires extreme familiarity with this game, but also requires very superb skills. Even Mao Xiaofei played it for 14 hours and only unlocked 10 relatively simple achievements.
Money laundering must be a crime committed by a gang. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for a member of a criminal gang who has just finished the case and is suspected of money laundering. Even if there are really criminals who are so arrogant, are other criminal gang members so arrogant?
Mao Xiaofei couldn't help but look confused.
