On the second day of the new year, Watson and Luo Lin's treatment basically came to an end, and they returned to the United States with their families. Here, they felt a strong family affection, even Lawrence and Colbert, who had been with them for such a long time.
, it was a long time ago, and the harmonious atmosphere of Chen Qingyun’s family was also an eye-opener for them, because everything around them was deeply marked with interests. They predicted
: In the future, China will also reach the situation they are in today, and friendship and family ties will be diluted by interests.
The day after seeing off the Luo Lin and Hua Sen families, Chen Qingyun drove his father's Bluebird and brought gifts to Donggao Town in Liquan City to visit Bai Xue's parents.
The place name of Donggao Town has a great origin. According to legend, Wu Zixu passed Zhaoguan. Because the Chu State was very strict in searching, when Wu Zixu was wandering helplessly in front of the pass, he was recognized by Donggao Gong, a disciple of Bian Que, and was taken to his home. After seven days of torture,
, one + night of baldness. Thanks to the help of Donggao Gong, I successfully passed the customs. The small place here was called Donggao Village. Later it became a settlement of villagers and was renamed Donggao Township. After Liquan was established as a city, it was renamed Donggao.
Zhen. The high mountain to the east of the town is called Donggao Ridge. It is said that Duke Donggao practiced cultivation on this mountain, and his family and disciples all lived in Donggao Village.
To the east of Donggao Town is a mountainous area, and Donggao Village is the entrance to the mountain; two kilometers away to the west is Ziwei Lake. There is an arsenal at the foot of Donggao Ridge, called 525 Factory, under the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense; beside Ziwei Lake there is
There is a drawing warehouse called the 612 Warehouse, which is affiliated to the General Staff. Of course, the locals only know that there are two military units here, but do not know their affiliation. The 525 Factory moved from Longhai, and their dormitory area is in Donggao Town.
Longhai dialect is still the "Mandarin" within the factory, but the factory employees have had a lot of interactions with the locals. Relatively speaking, the 612 Warehouse seems very mysterious. The locals basically don't understand this unit, even in Liquan City.
We have basically no contact with the Donggao Town Government.
Bai Xue's home is located in the dormitory area of Factory 525. Her parents are both senior intellectuals of Factory 525 and live in a bungalow with a small courtyard.
"Qingyun, why are you here?" Hearing the knock on the door, Bai Xue opened the door and looked overjoyed: "How did you find this place? I remember I didn't tell you where I live."
Chen Qingyun smiled narrowly and said: "Sister Bai, you are the Golden Phoenix of Donggao, and you are very famous. Don't you know what the locals call you?"
Bai Xue's pretty face turned red and she said, "Don't listen to their nonsense and come into the house quickly."
It turns out that Bai Xue is a famous beauty here. Everyone calls her Fairy Bai. After Chen Qingyun inquired a little, he easily found her home.
"Mom and Dad, this is a friend I met in Yanjing. His name is Chen Qingyun. He is also from Liquan. His home is in Qingpu Town." Two middle-aged people in their fifties in the living room saw their daughter leading a handsome man.
The young man came in and stood up from the sofa, with a loving smile on his face. Bai Xue looked at Chen Qingyun: "Qingyun, these are my dad and my mom."
Chen Qingyun put the gift on the coffee table, crossed his hands in front of his belly, and said respectfully: "Hello, uncle, hello, aunt."
Bai Xue's father came over and patted Chen Qingyun on the shoulder: "Xiao Chen, welcome to our house as a guest." Bai Xue's mother said with a rich expression on her face: "Xiao Chen, you just came to play at home, what else do you bring."
Bai Xue said shyly: "Mom, what are you talking about? Qingyun, let's go in and talk and ignore them."
Bai Xue's father laughed loudly: "Yeah, don't pay attention to us. It's your fault. Madam, let's go buy groceries. Bai Xue, let the guests have dinner."
Why do we need to buy vegetables during the Spring Festival, and at this time, the farmer's market in Donggao Town must be empty. Chen Qingyun doesn't know this, but Bai Xue knows. She also knows the mood of her parents at the moment. Just when she was about to explain, the ringing sound of her mobile phone
When the phone rang, Bai Xue and Chen Qingyun took out their mobile phones at the same time: "Sorry, answer the phone." They said at the same time, looked at each other and smiled, one entered the room and the other went outside the door.
"Minister Zhou, what are your instructions?" Chen Qingyun came to the yard. If he called at this time, it would definitely not be nonsense. "Qingyun, are you in Liquan?" Zhou Ji's hearty voice came from the phone.
Chen Qingyun was shocked: "Minister Zhou, please give instructions." "Go to Donggao Town, Liquan City immediately and find Director Ma Xiang of the 612 warehouse. He will explain to you. I have no requirements. I hope you can act as an observer of the War Department."
Identity, grasp what happened in Donggao Town, until the problem is solved, Director Ma will be under your command."
When the call ended, the sound of sirens came from outside, and doubts arose in Chen Qingyun's mind: Something big might have happened in Donggao Town.
Bai Xue came out of the house and said to Chen Qingyun expectantly: "Qingyun, I need your help. Can you stay in Donggao Town for a while?"
Chen Qingyun was secretly happy, but he remained calm and said jokingly: "Sister Bai, in what capacity should I stay?"
Bai Xue's pretty face was covered with peach blossoms: "I hate it, I'm going to tell you something serious."
Chen Qingyun felt a little confused and did not dare to tease Bai Xue any more: "No problem, I just have to go out now. Don't wait for me at noon. Please treat me to dinner tonight."
When Bai Xue's parents came back, they saw Bai Xue alone in the living room in a daze. Her mother quickly asked: "Xiao Xue, where are the guests? You didn't quarrel, did you?"
Bai Xue replied absently: "He's gone."
Her mother asked in confusion: "You didn't keep him for lunch? He's a young man from Duojun, isn't he younger than you?"
Bai Xue said impatiently: "Mom, what are you talking about? He will come over for dinner. Please clean up my brother's room. He may have to live in our house for a few days. I want to be quiet for a while. Don't disturb me if you have nothing to do."
After that, he went into the room.
At this time, Chen Qingyun drove to the gate of the 612 Drawing Warehouse. As soon as he parked the car, a sentry armed with a semi-automatic rifle came over and said loudly: "This is a military base, parking is not allowed, please leave."
Chen Qingyun took out his officer's ID card and handed it to the sentry: "I'm looking for Director Ma, please report."
The sentry opened the certificate and was shocked: How could such a big man come here? He did not dare to neglect and saluted: "Please wait a moment, chief."
In a short time, the large iron door of the warehouse was opened, and several officers came out with neat military appearance and majestic weapons. They saluted Chen Qingyun who was standing next to the car: "Ma Xiang, director of the 612 Warehouse, led his department to welcome the chief to come for guidance."
Chen Qingyun had never experienced such a formation. He was slightly panicked, but immediately calmed down and stretched out his hands: "Director Ma, I have caused trouble for you."
Ma Xiang is a tough soldier, and he did not show any contempt for Chen Qingyun's youth. He also understood that the call from the War Department just now was his irresistible order: "Chief, we have received instructions and will report the specific situation to you immediately.
Please come to the conference room."
The drawing warehouse is built on a hill by the lake. It occupies a large area, estimated to be no less than 200 acres. However, there are only a few barracks and more than ten independent villas on the ground. There is a garden in the front and a vegetable patch in the back.
.
Several kinds of fruits were placed in the conference room. Ma Xiang and his subordinates sat down one by one and asked Chen Qingyun to take the main seat. Chen Qingyun was not polite. He Hongwu told him that the army has a strong sense of hierarchy and being too modest will lead to
Make people look down upon.
Ma Xiang introduced Chen Qingyun to several of his subordinates present, and then briefly said he welcomed the chief to come to the 612 warehouse to inspect the work, and then let his subordinates go out without introducing Chen Qingyun's name and identity. After several of his subordinates left, Ma Xiang
Saluted Chen Qingyun again: "Chen Gaosen, Minister Zhou Ji has given instructions. We will follow the instructions of the head of the department for recent work, and we will fully cooperate."
Chen Qingyun also stood up and said to Ma Xiang: "You're welcome, Director Ma. I still don't understand what happened specifically. Please convey the instructions from the headquarters."
Listening to Ma Xiang's introduction, Chen Qingyun's face slowly became serious, knowing that the task in Donggao Town this time was not easy.
It turned out that two years ago, the 612 Warehouse received a top-secret blueprint, which was classified as a first-level national secret. Only Ma Xiang himself and Hu Li, the deputy director in charge of intelligence information, could access it. It was kept in the first-level data room of the warehouse. Not long after the blueprint arrived,
Factory 525 also received the production task of developing this drawing. Factory 525 established a development team and designated the factory's chief engineer Bai Nansheng to contact Hu Li. From a procedural point of view, no fourth person could have access to the complete set of drawings. The people in the development team
You can only access the drawings related to you based on the division of labor. Now that the development results are nearing completion, many unfamiliar faces have appeared in Donggao Town, most of them are business personnel from the Electric Fan Branch of the 525 Factory. Just this morning
, Hu Li's body was suddenly discovered in Ziwei Lake, which attracted the attention of senior officials.
The Ministry of National Security and the Intelligence Department of the General Staff have respectively sent personnel to Donggao Town. They are expected to be in place within the past two days to ensure that the drawings and development results will not leak secrets. The Operations Department is not involved in security and detection matters, but considering that Chen Qingyun is there.
Li Quan, I hope he will pay attention to this matter as an observer.
The Operations Department has given Ma Xiang clear instructions to fully cooperate with Chen Qingyun. As long as it does not affect the work of the Ministry of National Security and the Intelligence Department, Chen Qingyun has the power to act expeditiously. All consequences of his work will be coordinated and resolved by the Operations Department.
Chen Qingyun heard Zhou Ji's importance and determination from Ma Xiang's introduction, and suddenly felt the weight on his shoulders.
At noon, Ma Xiang arranged for all the middle-level and above managers in the warehouse to drink with Chen Qingyun. Chen Qingyun's immaturity aroused the contempt of the officers. After the banquet, Chen Qingyun was left standing alone, which changed everyone's impression of Chen Qingyun.
Chen Qingyun became the most popular leader of the 612 Drawing Warehouse.
After dinner, Bai Xue accompanied Chen Qingyun for a walk outside the town. At this time, the temperature in Liquan was still below zero, and the wilderness was silent and solemn. The withered leaves had lost their former luster, and all kinds of small animals were gone. Occasionally there was only one
The little sparrows flew by and hurriedly rushed to their nests in the eaves. The residents of the small town were already sitting around the stove watching TV.
Chen Qingyun and Bai Xue's moods were as heavy as the current environment. The sudden mission made Bai Xue, who had experienced many adventures, feel nervous. Chen Qingyun only knew that there was a set of blueprints. When facing the success of the development, someone tried to steal the results, but he didn't know what it was like.
Drawings. What does this result mean? Therefore, although he is also nervous, he is not as stressed as Bai Xue.
"Sister Bai, are you a little nervous? What do you want me to do for you if you leave me?" Chen Qingyun did not reveal what happened to him at the 612 warehouse. Bai Xue thought he had gone home, so he asked: "What's wrong with you at home?"
Have everything been arranged?"
Chen Qingyun replied: "My things have been arranged, there is no need to worry."
"I have to perform a mission, which may be dangerous. You won't be afraid, right?" "Then I won't take care of your mission. I will only be responsible for protecting Sister Bai." "It may affect your registration for school."
That's a trivial matter. I asked for leave from Professor Ren, but he doesn't care about me now anyway." "Qiao Feng will come the day after tomorrow, and there are three other people traveling with him. They came separately and concealed their identities. You can't greet him when you see him."
Now Chen Qingyun was shocked. The matter was more serious than he imagined: "Sister Bai, what do you want me to do?"
Bai Xue looked at Chen Qingyun and said seriously: "If you want to quit, it's still too late, but once you intervene, you must go all out."
"Sister Bai, I've decided, it's your command."
"Okay, let's start with the Hu Li case. This case is dominated by local police, and we break through from the outside. In the past two days, we have found out the outsiders in Donggao Town. Anyone who comes to Donggao Town within two years must be familiar with their situation. The headquarters
I will cooperate. Just cooperate with me as my boyfriend, so that you won't attract other people's attention." Bai Xue said her plan shyly.
The two of them came back from outside the town hand in hand. In front of the Ziwei Lake Hotel in the center of the town, they met three young men wearing black leather jackets, whistling and smelling of alcohol blocking their way. The one in the middle had a stern head and a sultry look in his eyes.
He said in confusion: "Baixue, when did you come home, you didn't even say hello to me."
Bai Xue, full of thoughts, replied unkindly: "Xu Xiaochun, what does it have to do with you whether I come back or not? Just be the brother of whoever you like, and don't involve me. Please get out of the way, I'm going home."
Xu Xiaochun laughed loudly: "Baixue, I found the pretty boy and dumped him. I won't let you go today. It's not too late to have a couple of drinks with him before going home. Pretty boy, I don't care who you are, don't be in the east."
I feel uncomfortable in Gao Town. You have nothing to do here. You can go as far as you want, otherwise you will lose an arm or something. Don't blame me for not saying hello."
Chen Qingyun looked at the three ruffians in front of him coldly and did not answer. It turned out that these three people were drinking at the Ziwei Lake Hotel. They saw Bai Xue coming from outside the town and deliberately stopped them.
Bai Xue's face turned red with anger: "Xu Xiaochun, please respect yourself, this is my boyfriend, don't mess around."
The ruffian on Xu Xiaochun's right stared at Chen Qingyun and said: "Baixue, you really have good taste. Now that you have a young boy, forget about your old buddy. Boy, if you are a man, just drink a few drinks with your buddy, or get out of Donggao Town, you are not welcome here."
A man without a seed."
Bai Xue was about to pull Chen Qingyun away, but Chen Qingyun's words shocked her. After thinking about it carefully, she happily agreed.
