You can know the place of ownership of the car from the license plate, and the model and approximate year of the car can be seen from the tail label and some characteristics of the car. There is also a very thin line of advertising words on the lower edge of the license plate, with the name of 4S and the phone number. Although it was mostly covered by sludge at the time, only a few numbers and two Chinese characters could be seen, but it shouldn't be difficult to find the Toyota 4S or second-level dealer if you know the area.

Then, you can start with the user data of that 4S or dealer to see if it can be found.In comparison, this is easier and less dangerous than going directly to a taxi management office.

But this is still a bit troublesome, Xiang Kun still wants to find a simpler and more direct way.

He continued to think carefully about the appearance and details of the clothes of the two people, what they said, and the various conditions of the car.

Then he recalled that there was a row of stickers on the back of the car that was half lost, leaving four and a half letters, the first four were CHEC, the second C had a dot, and the half letter after C could also be very It is easy to see that it should be O.

So the sticker was originally a website with a high probability, ending with ".COM". It is speculated that it might be a website similar to WWW...CHE.COM.

Will put stickers on the car, most likely the website of the company that purchased the car.Of course, it is also possible that it is a private car, which has a sticker on that website for some reason.

From the conversation between the two, it was obvious that they were leaving by plane. They came here on a business trip for the "company", and the license plate of the Prado belongs to this city. Obviously it will not be the two of them. The car that people usually drive.It should be that the "company" helped them arrange the car after they got here, or they found the car by themselves.

Maybe it is a car rental platform?

Anyway, there was still some time before boarding, so Xiang Kun began to search based on these conditions. After searching for a while, he did find a website that basically met the conditions, but this website is not a car rental website, but a car maintenance and repair website. Website, offline chain stores.The offline stores of the website are basically in the province, mainly in two cities, the coverage is not wide, and the total number of stores does not exceed double digits.

In this case, this car may have been repaired in a shop under this website before. What discount was given, so this sticker was posted?

However, Xiang Kun searched the website, but unexpectedly saw a few promotional photos. In those photos, the maintenance staff sent by the repair shop went out to "rescue" and troubleshoot the car for customers on the side of the road.The maintenance staff is a handsome and white boy, and the owner is a beautiful and lovely beauty. It is obvious that he is posing for publicity.

However, what Xiang Kun noticed was an SUV used as a vehicle for maintenance personnel.

It was a white Prado. Although the license plate was not photographed, and it looked much newer than the one that the two people saw that night, it was the same from the few traces on the lower part of the C-pillar of the vehicle. Cars.

In other words, the Prado was not repaired in the maintenance shop on that website before putting the sticker on it, but the car in the maintenance shop itself?

Then why can they drive that car?Through what relationship did you borrow it?

However, through the tone of the two chatting, Xiang Kun felt that they were unlikely to borrow a car through their own relationship. Since they are going out for business, the car is most likely to be arranged by the company or settled by spending money.

The company in their mouth should not be referring to this car repair and maintenance company. All the chain stores covered by this company can be reached without flying.

Xiang Kun remembered several promotions and advertisements he had seen on the homepage of the website, and then checked and found that this company was acquired by "Shenxing Technology" last year.

No wonder there are many advertisements on the homepage, which seem to have the characteristics of Internet companies, as well as various "maintenance and delivery of the driving recorder", "participating in recording driving habits and sending maintenance vouchers and cash red envelopes", "participating in the experience of AI car butler recording instrument to send "Oil card", "Participate in the statistics of detailed fuel consumption to send oil" activities.

"Shenxing Technology" Xiang Kun naturally knows that this company is a model of sullen technology. It is not as well-known as the giants in instant messaging, games, e-commerce, mobile phone manufacturing, etc., but they actually do a lot of things. It has a wide range of applications and is indispensable for many electronic devices. Even if it is a unique technology worldwide, it has complete patent barriers and extremely high profits.

In the previous paragraph, Xiang Kun also saw the news that "Shenxing Technology" was experimenting with a property management solution using drones and AI, and had obtained licenses and permits, and was conducting trial operation in a pilot community.

Earlier, "Shenxing Technology" also published many various research results, some of which have already been put into application.

However, they seldom make their own terminal products in the civilian field. Most of the time, they use the developed technologies and patents to cooperate with other well-known and mature manufacturers to launch products.So many times, there is a high reputation in the professional field, but the public reputation is relatively poor.

Moreover, Xiang Kun also vaguely felt that "Shenxing Technology" didn't want to be too famous, and disappeared immediately after releasing various products and research, and executives and bosses rarely spoke.

What does a company like "Shenxing Technology" do for a car repair and maintenance company?

If you just want relevant data, you can directly cooperate with such companies, or receive other relevant APPs or Internet companies to obtain relevant big data. Is it because you think that the current way, the data obtained is more effective and comprehensive?

So, those two people were sent by "Shenxing Technology"?

What they call "company" refers to "Shenxing Technology"?

Of course, it is also possible that they simply don't know how to get the car, and it has nothing to do with the maintenance company that the car originally belonged to and the "Shenxing Technology" behind it.

However, in comparison, Xiang Kun is still more inclined to find vampires and mutant creatures in Shenxing Technology.

The announcement tone sounded in the terminal, and Xiang Kun's flight began to board.

Although there is no direct evidence that the two people who left the Prado that night were doing things for "Shen Xing Technology", Xiang Kun is not going to sue others in court. He does not need solid evidence, just free heart testimony. .

So he suspects "Shenxing Technology", then just check "Shenxing Technology" directly.

Under this investigation, Xiang Kun discovered that "Shen Xing Technology" has been involved in so many fields.

From AI drones to programmable robot toys, from VR and AR game equipment to medical auxiliary equipment, from autonomous driving to new forces building cars, from security equipment to express delivery industry, there are all kinds of things, and now even car maintenance The service industry has been involved, and the acquisition and investment enterprises are all over the country.

Moreover, "Shenxing Technology" is not a listed company, and many things do not have complete information. They have to be checked from the news published by themselves, and only they have announced so much.

Xiang Kun was dazzled and felt that the company's development direction and strategy were too random and strange.

The plane was about to take off. Xiang Kun turned off his mobile phone, sat in his seat and looked sideways at the scenery of the airport runway outside. The names of the companies acquired and invested by "Shenxing Technology" flashed through his mind.

There are many companies that he has seen or heard of in his daily life, but he didn't think about it at the time. Behind them is "Shenxing Technology".

For example, there is a courier company called "Run Very Fast". Although Xiang Kun has not used their service, he is very impressed by them, because this name is in the courier companies called X Feng, X Tong, and X Bang. , It looks so special and unique, and it makes people remember it.

When Xiang Kun first checked the information, when he saw the name of the express company, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

At the beginning, he thought it was because he knew the express company before and was impressed by the name before.But soon he realized that more than that, there must be other reasons.

So he carefully searched for the information and pictures of the express company "running very fast" in his memory. Then he remembered that he had gone to Yangcheng before and wanted to go to the place where Guo Tianxiang was to "revisit the old place" to anchor. When comparing Guo Tianxiang's memory fragments to help him find useful information, he once saw a van with the express sign "It's running fast" outside the building where Guo Tianxiang's clinic is located.

Then when he went to Guo Tianxiang's residence in Yangcheng and the residence of the dirty-braided female hacker Mi Qiao, he saw the "very fast" express van around the building.

He knows that this express company has a very advanced sorting system and a warehousing management system, but it has not been rolled out on a large scale. It only has a small amount of business in a few first- and second-tier cities in China, mostly in cooperation with enterprises, and very few private businesses. , The size is far worse than those express delivery giants.

However, as a first-tier city in China, it was normal for Yangcheng to have express vehicles that "running very fast" appeared. Moreover, at the time, the attention was focused on the people monitored by the police, so Xiang Kun did not find it strange.

But now thinking about it, Xiang Kun suddenly realized something was wrong—it was not normal that their vans appeared in those three locations at the same time with the business volume of “running extremely fast”.They are mainly engaged in corporate business, but in those three locations, there are actually not such large business clusters.

If "Shenxing Technology" had studied vampires and mutant creatures early in the morning, they would have noticed the anomaly of Guo Tianxiang and the anomaly encountered by anchor Xue and the three people in Qinling, and sent people to monitor Guo Tianxiang and Mi Qiaohui. Where it appeared, sending people to the Qinling uninhabited area to collect samples and search for wild boar corpses could explain why.

So "Shenxing Technology" has been involved in so many fields, and there are people in various places. Is it to help them investigate the mutant creatures that appear in various places?

Judging from the conversation between the two people that night, although they signed a non-disclosure agreement and other things, they didn't seem to know much, and they didn't know the purpose of what they did and the usefulness of what they collected.

So, assuming that "Shenxing Technology" is the "company" that is investigating these, how did their senior executives know?Is the boss instructed?

Xiang Kun previously checked that Lu Chengan, the founder of "Shenxing Technology", was born in a mechanical parts processing factory in his early years and made a lot of money. Later, he began to enter the high-tech industry step by step.A few years ago, this boss Lu, who is over 70, has also entered the top 100 list of Forbes.And because "Shenxing Technology" is not listed, many people think that the media's speculation about his wealth is too conservative.

However, Lu Chengan is more low-key than his company. There are very few video materials and introductions about him. He has never been interviewed in the past two decades. They are all professional managers of the company dealing with the media.

Is this boss Lu actually a vampire?

Xiang Kun guessed in his heart.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove his speculation, he has already listed "Shenxing Technology" and Lu Chengan as targets that require key guard and attention.

No matter how sure you are, it is Xiang Kun's consistent approach to get a result first, and then slowly verify and modify the result.

The plane reached the Star City smoothly all the way, so it was easy for Xiang Kun to find the little fat girl, just feel the coin and A4 paper.

But it was too late for him to arrive in Star City. The little fat girl had been picked up by her mother from the kindergarten. The chance encounter that he had planned to pass by the kindergarten again could only be cancelled.

Change to meet elsewhere?Xiang Kun could do this easily. After all, during the induction, the coin and A4 paper had been moving, and it should have been carried by the little fat girl.

But is this too deliberate?If he meets again at the entrance of the kindergarten, it can be said that he will pass by this neighborhood every time he comes to Star City on business trips, so it is normal to meet again.But if it happened in other places, would it be a coincidence?

While thinking about the "encounter" plan, Xiang Kun had already ordered a car based on his induction of the coin and placed it all the way to a shopping mall. Not long after getting off the car, he saw the lead from a distance on the first floor of the shopping mall. The little fat girl's hand is the mother of Shiling who is shopping.

Xiang Kun kept his distance and followed slowly, focusing on the two of them, watching their conversation.

"Shiling, don't play with coins. Mom will buy you ice cream, okay? Do you want chocolate or strawberry flavor?" Shiling's mother, who used to prevent her daughter from eating ice cream, said this actively.

Liu Shiling raised her head to look at her mother, and said strangely: "Don't mother always say, don't eat sweets before dinner? We haven't had dinner yet?"

"Uh..." Shiling's mother was speechless for a while, and she didn't know if she should be pleased that the child was sensible. After all, the former Liu Shiling was about to fall asleep and couldn't open her eyes. She told her that she had ice cream. She can jump up again immediately.

The coins in Liu Shiling's hand were constantly tumbling, looking at the dessert shop not far away, and said: "Mom, let's come back after dinner, I want to eat chocolate. Mom, let's eat rabbit meat for dinner, I think Eat the dry pot rabbit meat made by Uncle Bald. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I really want to eat it."

Seeing her daughter's shiny eyes when she said something to eat, and after she finished speaking, she subconsciously licked her lower lip and swallowed her saliva, she breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.

In the distance, Xiang Kun, who heard this, immediately recalled the "map" of the shopping mall he saw at the entrance when he entered the shopping mall, and then quickly walked up the escalator from the other direction to the third floor where the restaurants gathered-there was one A chain restaurant famous for making Sichuan-style rabbit meat.
