Qin Ran grew up in the countryside. She disappeared for one year and lost a year of high school.
One year later, she was taken to Yuncheng by her biological mother to attend school.
Her...
The convoy reorganized and set off.
The entire M continent is where mountains and plains meet, and it is adjacent to the sea. Due to its geographical advantages, it is a hive of all kinds of people.
The Purchasing Hall is going to their own dock.
Because Shi Liming had been with the convoy before and was familiar with the terrain, it was Shi Liming who was driving Qin Ran's car.
At eight o'clock, the convoy set off on time. Shi Liming sat in the driver's seat, driving behind the convoy while explaining the goods to Qin Ran and Cheng Mu.
"We are just handing over the goods to our brothers in the Middle East," Shi Liming put his hands on the steering wheel. The car had already driven out of the most prosperous trading and financial center, and a plain had begun to appear. "There are flight restrictions in Continent M. We will go to the border and bring the goods back, and this mission will be completed. The rest is to allocate the market. Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing is very easy, so the strength of the purchasing hall is relatively low."
When Shi Liming said that his strength was low, Cheng Mu's head dropped directly on the passenger seat.
Qin Ran sat in the back, her hands on the car window, looking at the exotic scenery outside, and her tone was also nonchalant, "Is this time different?"
"Well, the Mas family has wanted this piece of meat in our hands for a long time. Regardless of the voice we control, the most advantageous helipad on the border of Continent M is also within our control. Every other caravan must pay." Shi Liming followed the convoy and turned the car onto the asphalt road, introducing it with a beaming face.
"But in the past month, the Maas family has been trying to silence us, and Matthew has been looking for evidence of our smuggling. It may be a bit difficult to get this batch of goods. Miss Qin, why do you want to set off with the convoy?" Shi Liming looked at the rearview mirror.
...
...
Qin Ran propped her chin up with her hand and smiled with her eyebrows raised. Her expression was still quite lazy, and even a little bit evil.
Shi Liming felt that he had seen it wrong for a moment, and his eyes widened.
When he looked again, Qin Ran had returned to her previous state. She propped her chin up with her hand and replied in a rather lazy manner, “I just want to go out and have some fun.”
For some reason, Shi Liming always felt that Qin Ran's "playing around" seemed to have a deep meaning.
"That Matthew is Interpol," Shi Liming continued to explain to the two people, but he didn't say much because he was afraid that they would be bored, so he just said it briefly, "The Mas family is in the financial center of Continent M."
After driving for four hours, there was almost no human habitation to be seen. Only the occasional small town could be seen on both sides of the road.
A little after twelve o'clock, the convoy stopped in an orderly manner on the roadside.
Master Zou organized a meal for everyone.
"Master Zou, we can just eat some dry food in the car," Captain Luo was from the Law Enforcement Hall. He was in the second car. He got off and came to Master Zou. "Why do we have to stop? Can we arrive at nine o'clock in the evening?"
Master Zou did not reply to him, but just glanced in the direction behind him.
Captain Luo followed his gaze and saw Qin Ran and others at a glance.
Shi Liming and Cheng Muzheng took out the insulated box from the trunk and took out the food that the servants of the manor had packed in the morning. It was very exquisite.
It’s completely different from what those rough old men like Master Zou eat.
It doesn't seem like we're here to complete a mission, but more like we're here for a picnic.
Captain Luo had been warned by Hall Master Du before coming. Seeing that it was Qin Ran, he didn’t say much. He just lowered his head and muttered, “Women are such trouble,” and then went to look for dry food.
“Miss Qin,” Hall Master Zou finished a piece of bread before he and several leaders of the purchasing team came to see Qin Ran, “Are you used to such a long drive? We may not stop in the afternoon.”
Qin Ran was wearing a sweater inside and a black down jacket outside. It was knee-length and the hat was buckled on her head. She didn’t look bloated in it. She held the thermos cup with her slender white fingers and drank water sip by sip.
Seeing Hall Master Zou coming, she pulled down the hood of her down jacket, revealing her snow-white face.
"It's okay." She took a sip of water and spoke concisely.
She didn't look like a talkative person, so Hall Master Zou asked her a few questions. Seeing that she was used to it and had no complaints, he didn't ask any more questions.
"Master Zou, will Matthew find us?" Shi Liming also took a piece of cake, sat on the ground, and looked at Master Zou.
"I asked Hall Master Du last night, and he said probably not." Hall Master Zou couldn't help but frowning when he talked about Matthew.
Cheng Mu has been in a low mood since yesterday.
This was not the first time he had heard the name Matthew. He bit his bread and looked at Shi Liming, "Can you negotiate with Interpol Matthew while completing your mission?"
Cheng Mu had heard the name Matthew from Jiang Dongye, so he naturally knew how powerful the other party was. He had also helped Gu Xichi settle many things.
At that time, Cheng Mu listened to Matthew as a legend.
After all, Matthew, who was internationally famous alongside those military and firearms merchants, was actually very far away from Cheng Mu's circle at the time.
He didn't expect that he might run into Matthew when he arrived in Continent M.
"We have frequent negotiations. You'll understand after staying here for a long time." Zou looked at Cheng Mu, then said something to a few people and walked away.
Cheng Mu once again felt the huge gap.
"Matthew has been trying to find our flaws for a while now. He's a tough guy." Shi Liming took out a bottle of water from the trunk, unscrewed it and took a sip.
Matthew has such a good relationship with Gu Xichi, what about Miss Qin?
Thinking of this, Cheng Mu couldn't help but look at Qin Ran again. She lowered her head to drink water, her eyebrows drooped, and her face was not clear.
Cheng Mu wanted to ask her if she knew Matthew, after all, she was so familiar with Gu Xichi...
But there were so many people around now, so Cheng Mu didn't ask.
Not far away, Luo Dui from the Law Enforcement Hall called out Shi Liming's name.
“Miss Qin, I’m going to look for my old brothers and will be back soon.” Shi Liming said this to Qin Ran before heading in the direction of Captain Luo.

"Shi Liming, what's wrong with you?" Captain Luo looked at Shi Liming and lowered his voice, "Didn't you tell me before that you would train hard and retake the exam to get into the Law Enforcement Hall? The retake is next month, so why are you..."
He glanced in Qin Ran's direction, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Just now in the car, a few grown men chatted for a while, and Captain Luo also found out what Shi Liming does every day, and couldn't help frowning.
"I feel pretty good now," Shi Liming smiled, "Miss Qin actually knows a lot."
Seeing him like this, Captain Luo stopped trying to persuade him. He patted Shi Liming's shoulder without saying a word, then left with a bottle of water.
Shi Liming returned to the car.
After a twenty-minute rest, the convoy set off again.
Qin Ran slept for a long time yesterday, and she didn’t sleep in the car either, so she took out her phone and opened WeChat to take a look.
Yan Xi sent back an audio clip.
Qin Ran took out headphones from her pocket, put them on, and listened to Yan Xihui's audio.
He asked his exclusive band to play the prelude, which was a lyrical song but with a strong sense of rhythm.
Yan Xi got goose bumps after hearing this.
Only thirty seconds of audio.
Qin Ran had just finished listening when Yan Xi replied:
[Divine arrangement!] 】
[A divine prelude!] 】
He also posted the emoticon package of "falling to his knees with a thump".
Qin Ran was used to his fussing, so she pressed the play button and listened to it again, lowering her eyes and thinking carefully about the details that could be further refined.

In the afternoon, Cheng Mu took over the driving job because he was afraid that Shi Liming might be tired. They had already left the M Continent Trading Center and it was the only road, so Shi Liming was not afraid that Cheng Mu would take the wrong road.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Arrived at the border of Continent M.
The border was guarded by special personnel, with a row of military and police officers standing there, holding hot weapons in their hands, reflecting a large area of cold light under the headlights on the roadside.
Routine checks are carried out at all times when entering or leaving the border.
M Continent is a financial trading center, with a huge daily trading volume and flow of people in and out. There is a row of cars waiting for inspection.
The license plates of Zou Tangzhu's motorcade were all specific. The leading black car had a flag on its edge, which was the flag hung on Cheng Juan's manor.
Seeing the flag, a locked door at the border was opened.
The military police standing at the edge immediately made way for a passage.
The entire convoy crossed the border almost without stopping.
At the border, Dai Ran and Qin Yu were the ones being inspected.
Qin Yu got out of the car and saw a convoy next to her driving out of the border. She looked at the rear of the car for a long time and couldn't help but turn her head to ask Dai Ran beside her, "Teacher, why don't they need to check?"
Dai Ran had not been to Continent M very often, and this was his first time encountering such a situation. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
A blond businessman who also got out of the car to be inspected laughed when he heard this. "The forces in Continent M are numerous and complex. There are some forces that even the governor of Continent M dare not offend. Did you see the flag hanging on the car? The red flower on the black background and the red spider lily. You can tell whose convoy it is at a glance. Apart from Interpol, who dares to investigate them, unless they are desperate."
Qin Yu and Dai Ran didn't know which faction the flag belonged to.
The most Dai Ran knew about the Maas family was because he had seen the Maas family’s butler from afar at the banquet.
Qin Yu gained a lot of knowledge during his visit to Continent M.
Only then did she realize how big the world was and how small her little world was. She clenched her wrists and was determined to get a place in Beijing College next year.
**
Master Zou's convoy has already left the border.
After driving for more than an hour, we finally arrived at the huge helipad at 9:30 in the evening.
It is adjacent to the hills on both sides.
After Cheng Mu parked the car, he saw Qin Ran still sitting in the back, seemingly looking at her phone. He didn't urge her, but unbuckled her seat belt and got out first.
The head of the hall, Du, and the others in front also came down. They were talking on the phone and no one knew what they were talking about.
In the car, Qin Ran closed the dialog box with Yan Xi. Just as she was about to turn off her phone, she saw a message pop up at the top -
c: Matthew is looking for you.

In case you forgot, c: Chang Ning.
