After watching the cook fold the rolled dough and cut it into strips, then turn on the iron pot to boil water and prepare the next thing, Yong Shijing walked out of the kitchen and walked to the corridor outside, listening to what was going on below.
movement.
What came up from the first floor were the voices of Zhai Tingqun and Xie Shizhen. The two were communicating about the attack on the road just now.
Yong Shijing smiled slightly, walked back to Xie Tingsong's room, closed the door ajar, and then sat at the desk, leaning her head on her hands and closing her eyes to rest.
About five minutes later, there was a knocking sound at the closet door. Yong Shijing woke up immediately. She quickly stood up and went to the bedside. She turned the brass knob on the bed frame and opened the door to the secret passage.
Immediately afterwards, Yong Ganping opened the closet door and walked out.
Yong Shijing turned the copper head on the bed frame and closed the door to the secret passage.
Yong Ganping turned around and closed the closet door, walked to Yong Shijing and said, "Uncle Clan, the other three houses have been inspected.
I waited next door for a while, but you didn't come over. I thought it would be better to come back first and seize the time to report my findings to you.
After I heard there was no sound in the house from the secret passage, I wanted to knock on the door and sure enough, you opened the door for me."
Yong Shijing said angrily: "It's a coincidence. Qi Baofeng hasn't arrived yet and we didn't meet each other. If you just knocked on the door of the secret passage and I happened to be meeting him and heard a strange noise in the closet, wouldn't it be ugly?
?”
Yong Ganping immediately smiled sheepishly and said: "Uncle Clan taught me that I won't be so impatient next time."
"Well! Now that you're back, let's talk about your investigation."
Yong Shijing asked Yong Ganping to sit down and talk.
"Uncle Clan, I saw the body next door, but because I wanted to explore other houses first, I didn't check his situation in detail.
Because the room adjacent to the next door only has a kitchen and a bedroom, the area is not large, so it is easier to find the secret passage. I soon found the secret passage behind the cupboard in the kitchen.
After entering the room, it is a "three nothings" situation, with no one, no objects, and no clues.
There is no dust accumulation in this vacant room, and it is very neat and clean, indicating that it is a room where someone has been stationed for a long time.
After I inspected it, I felt that everything about this house was weird."
"What's so strange about this house?"
"Uncle Clan, I think it's strange that there is no storage, and I think it's strange that there are no clues.
It is abnormal to find no clues in a manned house.
The other party wants to cover it up and erase all traces. There must be a secret that cannot be known.
That was my immediate feeling while exploring the house."
"Okay, let's continue talking about your subsequent investigation."
"Yes, Uncle Clan. I found the secret passage at the same location, behind the kitchen cupboard, and entered the third house.
This house had obviously been guarded by someone. I didn't notice anything unusual when I first entered. Later, I found a cubicle in the bedroom on the first floor, which contained a telephone switchboard.
The equipment has been damaged. I guess it was damaged because the equipment was relatively large and heavy. It was inconvenient to carry and could not be taken away."
"Any other discoveries?"
"No, I have carefully checked all the rooms on the upper and lower floors of these two houses and found no problems."
"Is there a car in the last house? Is the vehicle damaged?"
Yong Ganping was not surprised that Yong Shijing knew the situation in the house, and replied: "There is a car in the house. It was not damaged, but the car key is not there."
"Okay! You take a rest now. After I meet with Qi Baofeng, we will discuss the following matters."
"Uncle Clan, are you going to start planning the operation?"
Yong Shijing nodded and said: "Shiquan and the others are arriving outside the city and will join us in joint operations. According to the patriarch's instructions, the operation will begin in one and a half hours at most."
"Great! Today we have been passive at the field point and on the roadside. We are almost exhausted. Now we are finally starting to fight back against them.
I must lead someone to teach them a lesson and let them know that the authority of the general guard cannot be challenged."
Yong Ganping said bitterly when he thought of what happened today.
"Don't be impatient. Your task now is to go to Quanlin, go to bed and sleep for a while, recuperate, and be energetic enough to participate in today's decisive battle."
Yong Shijing told Yong Gan to follow the path.
"Yes, Uncle Clan. I'm going to sleep for a while. If anything happens, just call me."
Yong Ganping knew that today's action was not trivial and he had to ensure he was in good condition. After speaking, he got up and went to the room where Quan Lin was.
Yong Shijing asked Yong Ganping to go to sleep for a while, which actually meant that tonight might be a sleepless night.
Now, after hearing that there was no movement outside, he leaned against the desk again and began to close his eyes and concentrate.
About ten minutes later, footsteps were heard downstairs.
It turned out that Wu Jun was the first to quickly go up to the second floor. When he saw that the door of the room where the special envoy was staying was ajar, he stood at the door, curled up the index finger of his right hand, and knocked lightly on the door a few times.
After hearing Yong Shijing's voice, Wu Jun pushed the door open and entered the room, saying: "Special envoy, Qi Baofeng has arrived downstairs. Chief Xie is talking to him. Ask his subordinates to come up and talk to you."
Yong Shijing sat on the chair, moved her aching right arm, and said, "Boss Qi, please come up. Remember to be polite. You will be waiting at the door when you arrive, ready to make tea and water at any time, you know?"
When Yong Shijing said "make tea and pour water," she deliberately emphasized her tone.
Wu Jun said with understanding: "Special envoy, my subordinates will definitely pay attention to your call."
Yong Shijing nodded, stood up, "Go ahead, I'll wait for him here."
Wu Jun agreed, turned around and went downstairs.
Yong Shijing's subsequent meeting with Qi Baofeng went very smoothly, with Xie Shizhen accompanying her all the time. The two parties had a great conversation, and nothing unusual happened.
Qi Baofeng expressed his goodwill very clearly, and facts proved that he had no ill intentions or ill intentions towards Xie Tingsong.
After he learned from his sister that Tonglu was one of the residences of the "Yongwang Guard", he expressed his friendly attitude towards the "Yongwang Guard" and expressed his willingness to carry out extensive cooperation with such an organization with a long history.
In-depth cooperation.
Seeing him like this, Yong Shijing couldn't help but think to herself that Qi Baofeng was indeed a man with a flexible mind and extraordinary knowledge. He was good at discovering business opportunities and his ability to seize them was indeed commendable.
