After leaving the ward, Jiang Ye asked, "Brother Chen, where are you going to let Comrade Pei live?

Now that it has been confirmed that Comrade Pei is an accomplice of "Meihua", the troops will definitely not be able to restrict her freedom anymore and will have to send her back to her hometown intact.

The problem is, Comrade Pei has no place of origin.

Han Jingchen: "My home."

Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, and stood still, asking in a daze: "Brother Chen, are you kidding? This seems too appropriate, right?"

Han Jingchen glanced at him and said, "I'm talking about Zheng Geng's house."

"Oh oh oh." Jiang Ying finally reacted.

Because of their father's relationship, Zheng Geng and Han Jingchen have known each other since childhood, but Zheng Geng's father died very early, and his mother was the daughter of a capitalist family. Even though his father was a revolutionary cadre, he was still more or less affected by the turmoil.

Their home was in a large courtyard in the west of the city, which was his mother's dowry.

Later, it was stipulated that the housing area of ​​each household should not exceed 15 square meters. The extra rooms would be managed by the Housing Management Department and divided among various units. His house was an exception.

After the house was divided up, several families moved into the courtyard one after another. Every household built a simple stove in the corridor, leaving no privacy at all. Zheng Geng simply separated his own small courtyard.

It is this small courtyard that has made many people jealous.

However, his father was a revolutionary martyr, and with the protection of this identity and the care of the Han family, the mother and son lived in peace.

A few years ago, Zheng Geng's mother passed away, and he decided to return to his hometown in the countryside. Before leaving, he gave the house to Han Jingchen to prevent it from becoming deserted or being occupied by others.

Because his mother had been ill for several years, he emptied the family savings, borrowed a small amount of money, and finally sold his job quota to pay off the debt. He had to return to his hometown to live, but his household registration and food and oil relations were not transferred back, and every month Han Jingchen helped to send things to his hometown.

Before leaving, Han Jingchen gave him a sum of money, saying it was the rent for the house. He did pay the rent, but in fact, Han Jingchen never stayed there a few times.

As for that, Jiang Ye didn't even think about it.

However, the yard is now empty. It is a quiet place in a hustle and bustle, where homeless Comrade Pei can stay for a while.

"Brother Chen, do you think what Comrade Pei said is true?" Jiang Ye lowered his voice and asked quietly.

Han Jingchen walked in front, narrowed his eyes slightly, and did not answer the question.

Jiang Ye didn't expect Han Jingchen to answer, so he said to himself: "If you say I believe it, I think it's too hard to believe! But if you say I don't believe it, I think it's more reliable than Comrade Pei being a spy."

If Comrade Pei is a spy from abroad, then she should have at least got an identity. Why did she just show up in such a muddled way? Was she waiting to be caught?

Moreover, Comrade Pei really knows a lot of things. For example, when she was hospitalized in An County and took western medicine for the first time, she chewed it and swallowed it directly, which made him dumbfounded.

For example, she knew how to open the iron spring lock on the door by watching them open it. At that time, he didn't think it was strange because she lived in a remote rural area and had never seen such things.

For example, when he helped her turn on the light, she looked at the light and the rope in surprise and confusion. At that time, he thought that most of the countryside did not have electric lights.

…

Those details that I had never thought about deeply seemed to appear before my eyes one by one.

Brother Shen has always been suspicious of Comrade Pei. The most important point is to find out her background and traces of her past life. It seems like she was smuggled in from abroad.

Now that I think about it, even if she came from abroad, whether by car or on foot, to An County, there must be some clues left, unless she wiped them out completely. If Duan is so powerful, she should have obtained an identity.

On the contrary, what Comrade Pei said is more likely.

She has now been cleared of suspicion as an accomplice of the "Plum Blossom" gang. There is no need for her to lie to them and arouse their unwarranted suspicions.

Unless Pei Manning's original identity was a problem, that is, she was a fugitive or a runaway female educated youth, and she lied in order to be sent back to her hometown.

If this is the case, it will be difficult to investigate. After all, there are so many missing people across the country that they may not be found even after several years.

Although as long as we find the big blue house that Comrade Pei mentioned and find traces of the three people living in it for several years, we can prove whether what she said is true or not.

However, they did not know where Daqing was.

According to Comrade Pei, she had only walked this long and unfamiliar road once, so if she tried to remember it, she would definitely be able to return along the same route.

What's more, most of the time, she was on the run.

Han Jingchen flipped open the three pieces of paper, frowned, and looked at the faces of the three people for a long time. The portraits drawn by Pei Manning in pencil, although sloppy, captured the spirit very well, giving people the feeling of jumping off the paper.

Maybe she really met these three people?

…

On Sunday afternoon, as usual, there was no combat command, drill or emergency mission, so Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye took half a day off and took Pei Manning out of the hospital as soon as they reported.

Doctor Yang said to Pei Manning calmly, "We didn't find the cause of the disease this time, so the hidden disease is still there. You have to try your best to control your emotions in the future. Do you understand?"

She liked Pei Manning very much. If her daughter had not died at the age of five, she would have grown up this much. Moreover, Pei Manning was gentle and well-behaved. After knowing that she was a spy, she felt relieved. However, it was a pity to lose such a beautiful girl like a flower.

Pei Manning nodded, and suddenly felt a little guilty, her voice soft: "I know, thank you, Dr. Yang, I will take good care of myself."

Doctor Yang nodded and stroked her hair: "Go ahead, I'll take you downstairs."

When she got downstairs, she stood by the door of the jeep. Before she could figure out how to open the door, Han Jingchen put the things in the trunk, glanced at her, and then came over and opened the door for her.

Pei Manning pursed her lips and looked up at him: "Thank you."

She sat in the back seat of the jeep, and as soon as the car started, she looked out of the glass window curiously.

When I went out, there was indeed a sentry at the door. He was wearing a neat military uniform, with a bayonet mounted on his gun. He stood in a neat posture, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.

Pei Manning couldn't help but break into a sweat. Fortunately, she didn't have to run away. Of course, with the strict defense, it would be difficult for her to escape.

Jiang Ye was driving the car in the front. "Comrade Pei, regarding your uncle's case, we will first put his portrait in the newspaper to look for him. What do you think?"

Pei Manning was stunned for a moment, then she said calmly, "Okay."

She was not worried at all, unless there was someone in this world who looked exactly like her uncle.

Han Jingchen was sitting in the co-pilot seat, his eyebrows raised, but she was not afraid at all.

It took nearly an hour to drive to the destination.

The yard is in the west of the city. There used to be many quaint gardens and courtyards nearby, but later many people donated them. Now they are divided among the employees of various units.

There are only three rooms in the small yard: a main room, a side room and a back house. On the right side is a high wall, which seems to divide the entire small yard into two parts. The right part is an open space of more than three square meters, with a well and a pear tree. Now all the leaves have fallen off, and a thin layer of snow hangs on the branches.

Pei Manning took a look. This blue brick and tile house was built quite elegantly. Although it was a bit old, the wood and stone materials were excellent.

The furnishings inside were simple, and all the furniture was made of expensive materials without any patterns, but everything was tidy. Perhaps it had been uninhabited for a long time, and there was a thin layer of dust on it.

"You will live here for the time being. Here is your letter of introduction and certificate of temporary residence." Han Jingchen handed her two pieces of paper with the official seal on them.

Pei Manning took it and nodded: "I know."

Then Han Jingchen took out some bills and money. Pei Manning looked at him in surprise. Han Jingchen said calmly, "I'll lend it to you. Return it to me when you find the person."

She only has 32 cents on her body, no food, no job, and no relatives. Leaving her here is tantamount to letting her fend for herself.

Pei Manning felt a little confused for a moment, and she stood there without moving.

"What if..." What if we find the person? But halfway through, Pei Manning changed the subject abruptly, "What if he still wakes up?"

Han Jingchen frowned fiercely: "At most half a year, if you still can't find someone, you don't have a town household, you can't continue to stay in the city, I will find a production team to settle down first," he paused, "Then, the money will be returned."

As long as Pei Manning's identity was confirmed, it would be fine for him to spend some money.

If... her identity is really problematic, this money will be wasted.

Jiang Ye was standing next to her and blinked quickly at Pei Manning: Come on, Comrade Pei!

Pei Manning took the money. She was now penniless and had no source of income. If she could live well, Han Jingchen would probably suspect that she was speculating in private. "Comrade Han, I will find a way to return it to you."

Han Jingchen didn't take this seriously, "Also, before verification, you can leave here for the time being."

Half a year was enough time for him to find out her identity.

Jiang Ye immediately interrupted, "Yes, Comrade Pei, you can run away in a car. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious."

Of course, even if she ran away, they would catch her back immediately.

Pei Manning nodded, "If you let me go, I will run away."

It was still early, so Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye helped Pei Manning tidy up the house. He pumped water from the pumping well, and Pei Manning watched curiously beside him.

It was the first time she had seen such a well.

Seeing her curiosity, Han Jingchen suddenly remembered a more important question and narrowed his eyes, "You should be able to cook by yourself, right?"

Did she claim that she had lived in a house since she was a child? But her skin was so smooth and fine that there was no trace of silk. Did her parents usually spoil her so much?

"Yes, my mother taught me, but she didn't teach me this." She pursed her red lips and pointed to the beehive coal and the beehive coal stove under the eaves.

Han Jingchen glanced over and his brows wrinkled. How could this happen?

All of a sudden, Han Jingchen felt that he was in big trouble.
