Hello, Mr. Major General

Huo Shaoheng looked at the plateau scenery of the Andes outside the car window, and thought to himself, it seemed that their procedures for selecting field personnel would require an environmental adaptation test.

The altitude sickness is something that you must get a plateau to know.

A healthy man is sometimes more likely to have altitude sickness than a thin woman.

But he said nothing, was silent all the way, and followed Xiao Cui into the small town of Uyuni.

This place is very rich in natural resources. In addition to the salt mines contained in the world's largest natural salt marsh, there are also rich lithium mines under the salt mines.

It is said that the lithium mines here account for more than half of the world's lithium resources.

Xiao Cui told them familiarly: "Although this is a small country, we pay great attention to protecting our natural resources. Do you know about lithium mines? Lithium mines, the main component of mobile phone batteries, have suddenly become popular in recent years, but here The presidents do not want to be exploited predatory. But how can they match the requirements of the princes in the Middle East and the big powers in Europe and the United States? It is the He family who was born and supported the local government behind the scenes, so that they can carry out small-scale lithium mining according to their own schedule. Development."

"So the main industries here are still tourism and salt."

Huo Shaoheng was slightly moved at this moment, thinking that He Jia still had a bit of vision...

A group of people in a buggy stopped in front of a pure white hotel.

This is the most famous white sand hotel in Uyuni, all built with white salt from the Uyuni salt marsh outside the town.

Before they came, Xiao Cui had reserved a room for them here.

Go in and talk to the dark plateau girl at the front desk of the hotel. Xiao Cui gets the key card and takes them upstairs into his room.

After settling in, the four of them pretended to be tourists, carrying backpacks, wearing ink-colored sunglasses and a khaki-colored fisherman's hat, and walked out of the door of the Baisha Hotel.

When you first arrive, of course you have to pretend to be a tourist and visit everywhere.

Huo Shaoheng and the others have been paying attention to this small town for a long time, but they only learned two years ago that this is also He Chu's hometown.

The residents of the small town are simple, enthusiastic and very talkative. Their memory of the He family’s condition is still fresh and rave reviews.

They speak a native language, but they also speak Spanish.

Xiao Cui is stationed in South America all the year round and speaks fluent Spanish, so he interprets for them.

Huo Shaoheng can actually speak Spanish, but at this time, he just pretended not to understand, just like a standard tourist from Asia.

...

An Indian girl with long braids peddled the salted fish made by herself at the door of her house. Her big eyes flickered and she smiled and said, "Are you asking Ho? They are very lucky!"

"lucky?"

"Yeah! He's family used to live in the east of the town, just a few families. They are not in good health and often get sick. I heard from my grandmother that they moved from another place."

The old grandmother wearing a flower headscarf sold them the little animals she made up, and said: "Which family? I know, but they are all dead." She said, screaming in a certain direction.

"They are all dead?" Xiao Cui asked in surprise, "Isn't it..."

"Oh, not all have died." The old grandmother casually said, "There is a family, it seems that there is a family with the surname He, who moved out 13 years ago. Later, the son of that family heard that he had made a fortune outside and sent someone Come back and renovate their cemetery."

Huo Shaoheng and the others looked at each other, and then asked the specific time, this old grandmother could not remember clearly.

Had to continue wandering around the town and asking.

In order not to arouse the vigilance and attention of others, they did not ask about the He family every day.

Instead, I was playing around with other tourists, and then inadvertently, I met a local and asked again.

After a few days, they quietly visited the entire town, chatted with the sheriff and mayor here, had dinner, and collected a lot of information about the He family.

Similar to the data collected before.

In the evening, four people gathered in the rooms of Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong to summarize the harvest of the past few days.

"From the information of the police station here, the He family came from abroad to settle here decades ago. There are not many people, there are only three." Zhao Liangze said the information he found from the police station computer, "but they are in The names used here are all in Spanish. Except for the last name, which can be distinguished from the last name, it is difficult to match the first name."

Yin Shixiong also said: "It is certain that the He family who moved here are in a very ordinary financial situation and are not rich. The men in the He family all have genetic diseases, and most of them died before they reached the age of 30. The last family named He left here 13 years ago and reportedly went to Colombia."

Xiao Cui said: "The family who moved away, I think He Zhichu and his father. According to the memories of neighbors in the neighborhood, Mr. He said he wanted to treat his son, and he didn't want him to be like other He family members. , Passed away at a young age."

"Then this family left, they never came back. Until seven years ago, a motorcade suddenly came and built a luxurious cemetery for the He family, built an ancestral hall, and hired locals to make sacrifices every year. People only know that the family that moved out 13 years ago has made a fortune."

After Xiao Cui finished speaking, he looked at Huo Shaoheng, "Huo Shao, Professor He left here 13 years ago. They made a fortune and returned home seven years ago, so it took them six years to become the underground godfathers of South America."

Huo Shaoheng frowned slightly, put his hand on his chin, and said flatly: "The family who left here 13 years ago is said to be three people, Mr. He, Mr. He’s son, and a nanny who brought him here since he was a child. big."

He looked up and looked out the window, "Where is He Zhichu's father? Where is his nanny?"

Yin Shixiong wondered, "You are so sure that the He family who moved from here is Professor He's family?"

"Whose other house besides their house?" Zhao Liangze asked back, "The other family members died of illness. Only the family who moved out survived and they returned to repair the cemetery. This is not fake. People in the town They all say that the underground godfather of South America is their native Uyuni."

Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze argued with each other, but no one could convince anyone.

Huo Shaoheng knocked them on his own and said, "Don't fight, the investigation is almost done. Go to the cemetery tomorrow."

...

Early the next morning, Xiao Cui took them to the cemetery group in Uyuni Town.

A white salt path in the middle of the cemetery group divides the entire cemetery into two.

On the left side of the path is the best place here, with mountains and lakes behind, seven or eight snow-white tombstones standing quietly under the blue sky, on the top of the mountains.

The wind on the plateau blows from a distance, with a whirring wind, like the sobs of the dead.

The tombstones on the right are more and denser, but they are uneven in size and crooked, and they cannot be compared with the seven or eight tombstones in the cemetery on the left.

An old woman wearing a gorgeous highland dress and a turban stood in front of a tombstone and hid her face and wept.

Xiao Cui pointed to the cemetery on the left and whispered: "...This is the cemetery of the He family. Seven years ago, Professor He's family sent people back to the hometown to worship their ancestors and rebuilt the cemetery here."

"No wonder the cemetery here is so new," Yin Shixiong whispered, putting his hands together and even bowed in front of the tomb.

The tombstone in front of the old woman was updated, as if it had just been erected here.

Because people here do not understand Chinese, when Huo Shaoheng and the others speak in Chinese, they did not lower their voices.

The old man who hid his face in front of the tombstone and wept heard it, paused, and looked back at them.

Huo Shaoheng moved in his heart.

They have traveled almost the entire town these days and have not seen this old woman.

This old woman is obviously of Chinese descent.

Huo Shaoheng intentionally said hello in Chinese: "Hello, are you also a tourist?"

The old woman wiped her hands on her skirt, shook her head, and said stiffly: "No." After speaking, she left the cemetery and went to the small town.

Huo Shaoheng looked at her back and winked at Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui understood, pretending to watch the scenery, and followed.

Huo Shaoheng, Yin Shixiong, and Zhao Liangze wandered in the cemetery for a while, and took photos of each tombstone, intending to take them back for study.

It didn't take long for Xiao Cui to follow up and return.

He breathlessly said to Huo Shaoheng excitedly: "Huo Shao! This old man just returned to the town yesterday. Guess who she is?"

Huo Shaoheng thought about it and blurted out, "He Chu's nanny?"

Xiao Cui: "!!!"

"Huo Shao, you are amazing!" He gave Huo Shaoheng a thumbs up.

Huo Shaoheng's heart jumped excitedly, "How did she come back? Where did she come back from?"

Xiao Cui took them as they walked and said, "I just asked the old man’s neighbors. They said that a luxury car brought her back yesterday, and a truck brought two coffins and was buried just now. The other side treated her very much Respectfully, let her live in the best house of the He family, and there will be doctors and nurses here to check her body.

"Professor He arranged it?" Yin Shixiong asked quietly.

"No." Xiao Cui shook his head, "I asked, the person who sent her back is the large local family in Colombia, that is, the large family from which the He family transferred all the wealth."

Huo Shaoheng paused, and there was a bad association in his heart.

He originally thought that he could stand still here.

As a result, He Chu didn't even think about going back to his hometown.

He even arranged his own babysitter, which shows that he is indeed going to live in seclusion.

The world is so big, where are we going to find him?

Huo Shaoheng had a headache.

"Huo Shao?"

"Let's go." Huo Shaoheng took a deep breath, and went to find the old woman to make idioms.

The group of them came to the door of the He family mansion.

This is also a typical Spanish-style building built seven years ago.

The brightly dressed old lady was sitting next to the fountain in the center of the courtyard, staring blankly at the sculptures in the pool.

It was a naked boy with wings on his back.

Huo Shaoheng knocked lightly on the half-man high iron door.

The old woman turned her head and saw them, perhaps because they were all of Chinese descent. She asked gently, "Is there anything wrong with you?"

Huo Shaoheng directly took out a previously taken photo of He Zhichu and said, "We want to find this person. Do you know him?"

"Who are you looking for?" The old woman glanced at him curiously, then moved her gaze to the photo in Huo Shaoheng's hand, and suddenly stopped.

Tears burst into her muddy eyes. She took the photo from Huo Shaoheng, crying and laughing tremblingly: "This is my little master, my little Achu... why do you have his picture?"

"We are his friends." Huo Shaoheng said patiently, "but he suddenly disappeared, so we are looking for him."

"Missing?" The old woman frowned. "What do you call missing?"

"It's just that he suddenly said that he was leaving. If he didn't come back, he would never be able to contact him again. We were worried that something happened to him, so we came to his hometown to have a look."

As they were talking, a woman dressed as a nurse came out of the mansion and said to the old woman: "Grandma, are you tired? Do you want to go in and rest?"

"Uncle?" Huo Shaoheng raised an eyebrow. "Excuse me, He Chu's uncle? Why have we never heard of him having an uncle?"

Don’t everyone in the town say they are nanny?

Why did you become a grandmother?

The old woman wiped her tears with her hand and waved to the nurse, "I'm not tired, you go back first."

The nurse nodded and greeted Huo Shaoheng and the others politely before packing up the medicine box and leaving.

After she left, the old woman stood up and said, "You are right. I am not He Zhichu's grandmother, but I am actually his nanny."

"Then what..."

"Then why do those people say that I am a grandmother?" The old woman smiled bitterly, "Actually I don't know how to say it."

She rubbed the picture of He Zhichu that Huo Shaoheng gave her and said, "Come with me."

She seemed to hide a lot of thoughts and wanted to tell others.

Bringing Huo Shaoheng and the others to the cemetery where they left just now, the old woman pointed to a relatively small tombstone and said: "I don't know who you are looking for. I only know my young master. My Achu died thirteen years ago. He died in my arms."

"What?!" Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze cried out in unison.

A gust of wind blew from the top of the mountain, and there was a gust of cold wind in the graveyard.

Everyone couldn't help but shiver.

At the beginning of the dispute in Huo Shaoheng's office a few days ago, now I hear this old woman say that he died 13 years ago?!

So who was He Chu who appeared by Gu Nianzhi two years ago?

"Did you make a mistake? We saw him a few days ago." Huo Shaoheng saw that the old woman was old, and he didn't believe her memory very much. What if he got Alzheimer's?

"Yeah, yeah, I'll show you his video, which was shot a few days ago, and I lost my temper!" Zhao Liangze said, and sent the surveillance footage of Hechu that was downloaded to the phone. The old woman looks.

The old woman only took a look, then wrapped her flamingo shawl tightly around her body, and said faintly: "I know there is this person, and I went to him."

Huo Shaoheng calmly said, "Really? Where have you lived all these years? Didn't you stay with him?"

"No." The old woman shook her head and said wearily: "We left here to seek medical attention, but before we found anyone, Mr. He died. Later, the young master also died. I had no money and no way. Send them back for burial. I have been working outside, trying to save enough money to send their coffins back to China. Until last year, I saw a person on TV who looked exactly like my young master, also called He Zhichu!"

If her young master had not passed away at the age of sixteen, he would surely grow up like He Chu!

Today there is only one update, a big chapter of four thousand words, Chapter 1449 "Secrets Buried by Time (7)"

PS: This grandma, I came out before, do you remember?

If you don’t remember, you can read it from the beginning, and you don’t need to remind you every day~\(≧▽≦)/~.
