Propelled headlong into the relentless currents of history, Ji Yu finds himself transplanted to the tumultuous prelude to WWII.
Once an ordinary civil servant in his modern existence, Ji Yu i...
He was extremely grateful and patted his chest to guarantee, "If you ever need to visit Professor Fang's residence again to ask him for advice, I'll take care of everything. I guarantee you can see Professor Fang anytime."
After saying that, he quickly left with his companions!
Liu Datong spat at his retreating figure, his tone filled with hatred and disdain, and cursed, "You snobbish bastard! It's only because Commander Ning is so lenient with you. If it were me, I'd skin him alive!"
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, "These kinds of insignificant people are good at nothing but causing trouble. Perhaps in the future we will have to ask Professor Fang for help and form a good relationship with him, which would be quite nice."
At this moment, Ning Zhiheng was acutely aware that the identity of the rural relative Zheng Dayou had met was far from ordinary. Someone personally received by someone close to Fang Boyi, a high-ranking member of the underground Communist Party, must hold a high-ranking position within the Party. However, their luck was truly terrible; they had been caught red-handed within the blockade area and apprehended by Gong Ji'an. Fortunately, he was in charge of the operation; had it been anyone else, this would have been a major disaster!
He turned to Gong Ji'an and said, "Keep a close watch on these other suspects. Don't let any suspicious people go. Release them only after they have explained their background and identity and verified their identities!"
Gong Ji'an nodded in acceptance and went to make arrangements. After this brief interlude, the search operation continued in an orderly manner.
It meets the conditions Ning Zhiheng mentioned. Only wealthy families can afford to buy such a detached mansion, so there really aren't many on the streets these days.
Soon Chen Yanqing led a group of people to the residence where the Zuo siblings were hiding!
Chen Yanqing looked up at the room number, hesitated for a moment, and then gestured for one of his men to knock on the door.
After a while, the courtyard gate opened, and a timid, pretty woman poked half her body out. Seeing a large group of people blocking the entrance, she was startled and asked softly, "Weren't we already checked today? Why do we need to check again?"
When Chen Yanqing saw Zuo Rou's appearance, his heart sank, but he showed no sign of distress on his face and asked with a smile, "May I ask who you are?"
A police officer standing nearby chimed in, "We just checked, this young lady is the head of the household, her name is Guo Ruxue!"
The speaker was the same policeman who had led the initial inspection. Hearing his words, Zuo Rou nodded shyly and said, "What? Do the officers want to check again?"
"Yes, this time we're going to conduct a thorough search of the entire house. We're mainly worried that bad guys might have broken in. You don't know, you're all alone, a weak woman. It would be dangerous if you encountered bad guys. We'll only feel at ease if we do the search."
The police officer explained enthusiastically.
These words made Zuo Rou's heart sink. Was a thorough search of the entire mansion necessary? Did they suspect her?
The bodies of the two thugs had already been buried in the yard by Zuo Gang and Zuo Qiang, and the bloodstains inside the house had been cleaned up. But given the time constraints, it's unclear if there were any flaws in their deception.
The presence of the brothers Zuo Gang and Zuo Qiang in this house was particularly difficult for her to explain. She decided to simply say that they were relatives from her hometown and hope that she could get away with it!
Her mind raced, but her expression remained impeccable as she softly said, "How could there be bad people here? But if you insist on searching, please be careful not to damage my belongings."
After speaking, he generously stepped aside to let Chen Yanqing and the others in.
But Chen Yanqing had no intention of going in. He smiled and said, "Since Miss Guo says so, there must be no problem inside. We won't go in and disturb you!"
After saying that, he looked at Zuo Rou's pretty face and continued in a gentle tone, "Miss Guo lives alone in such a big courtyard. Please make sure to lock the doors and windows at night and be careful!"
"Okay, thank you for the reminder, sir. I will definitely be careful!" Hearing Chen Yanqing say that there was no need to search the house, Zuo Rou's tense mood immediately relaxed.
There were indeed many flaws in the room, and the origins of the Zuo Gang and Zuo Qiang brothers were hard to explain. She pretended to be calm on the surface, but she was extremely worried in her heart and secretly felt lucky!
She was extremely deceptive about her appearance and was very confident in it. Most young men felt affection for her when they saw her. Over the years, she had overcome many difficulties with her beauty and was invincible!
This time was no exception. The young man in front of her clearly had a good impression of her and didn't want to put her in a difficult position, thus saving her from trouble.
Chen Yanqing nodded gracefully to Zuo Rou, then turned and left with the others. Zuo Rou watched their departing figures and slowly closed the courtyard gate.
Just as everyone was secretly cursing Chen Yanqing for being lustful, Chen Yanqing's face quickly turned ashen!
He whispered to the team members beside him, "Quickly report to Commander Ning that the culprit has been found!"
