Chapter 372 Exposed
"base--"
The two said in unison.
Su Tong smiled with curved eyebrows and said happily:
"Brother Yi! We are thinking the same thing again!"
Qin Yi looked at Su Tong's smiling face and felt a little dry in the mouth.
He looked around and saw green shade everywhere.
As soon as the steering wheel was turned, the car pulled to the side of the road.
"how?"
Su Tong was surprised.
Qin Yi parked the car, leaned over, held Su Tong's face with both hands, and kissed her deeply before she could react.
Su Tong closed her eyes, stretched out her hands to hug Qin Yi's neck, and responded to him enthusiastically.
The car stopped on the side of the road for a long time.
When Su Tong opened his eyes, there was a gleam of light in both of their eyes.
Qin Yi gazed at Su Tong deeply, with infinite affection in his eyes.
His hands caressed her face, unwilling to let go for a long time.
Suddenly, he tilted his head and took a closer look at Su Tong's right face, where there were obvious marks of scratching on the skin.
"What's going on here?"
"Oh! They sealed my mouth with tape, and when they rubbed it off, it rubbed against the wall. Fortunately, it didn't break!"
Qin Yi's eyes were suddenly filled with anger, and he said bitterly:
"This woman deserves to die! I will make sure she gets the punishment she deserves!"
Su Tong held Qin Yi's hand and smiled.
"It's no problem! It's just a few scratches. If it's true, Lin Jiao will have to face much more than this in the future."
Qin Yi said distressedly: "How can it be okay? Fortunately, her face was not broken. If it was broken, I would have to smear Lin Jiao's face too! She deserves it, you are so innocent!"
Su Tong shook his hand and changed the subject.
"Brother Yi! Wen Ying had been in Master Peng's base in the north before going to Xiaoya Village. According to what she said, Master Peng's smuggling network headquarters should be here. The base over there is already so large in scale, so the one here should not be smaller than that!"
"If we can find clues related to the base from these two factories, then we will be close to exposing Mr. Peng's true identity!"
Qin Yi nodded, "I will ask them to investigate carefully. This is a clue that was delivered to our door. If we want to blame someone... we can only blame Lin Jiao for losing her patience!"
The car was back on the road.
Qin Yi said slowly, "It's almost there! After Xiaoya Village, the Ministry of Public Security issued wanted orders to all provinces and regions. Through the clues obtained from Xiaoya Village and the in-depth investigation of gangs in various places that participated in Xiaoya Village, the arrest operations across the country have been carried out in an orderly manner! Gangs in several provinces have been eradicated!"
"The group of mercenaries that attacked the Southwest Research Institute have also been driven out of the border. Yang Qi and Yang Cheng are now Level 1 wanted criminals. They may have fled abroad, but if they dare to show up in the country, they will be arrested immediately."
"Now, except for a few people from the special forces, everyone thinks that Mr. Peng has been shot dead. The case is just the final arrest and finishing work of gangsters from all over the country. All kinds of reports are also based on the premise that Mr. Peng has been shot dead. As for Zhai Yuanzhi and Lin Jiao, they have only been secretly investigated and have not been alarmed!"
Su Tong nodded and said, "Yes! This is the right thing to do! The real Master Peng is hiding deep in the dark. He is cunning and sharp, silently spying on everything. He will not show up at any sign of trouble. We can only find him when he reveals his true colors!"
"And with the current state of this case, I often wonder, is this what he wanted to achieve?"
Qin Yi said, "You mean... the real Master Peng... wants to destroy the smuggling empire that he has built up with decades of hard work? This doesn't seem to make sense!"
Su Tong was silent for a while, then said:
"It doesn't make sense, but things seem to be developing in this way! Otherwise, how can we explain those previous questions? I also know that there are many contradictions here, unless, unless... we can figure out what Master Peng's ultimate goal is? Only then can we solve those questions one by one!"
Qin Yi fell into deep thought, and there was silence in the car.
——————
Qin Yi sent Su Tong back to Su's house and then returned to the military region.
He was already busy, and today's kidnapping incident alerted the military, so he had to go back and give an explanation.
Su Tong returned home, and Su Yu was tinkering with Su Tong's study in the house.
He felt that Su Tong should have a pharmacy of his own. When he was "over there", Su Tong had a special room for preparing medicine and doing experiments.
Although Su Tong repeatedly said no, he could do experiments at the Academy of Sciences when doing the project, and he could do experiments in the hospital when he returned to the team, so there was no need to set up a room at home.
Su Yu said that it was okay not to have a pharmacy, but he must have a study.
She said she hasn't graduated from Kyoto University yet and still needs to study hard.
Su Tong really couldn't refute this reason, so he just let him do what he wanted.
Lin Xiuqing hasn't come back yet.
Su Tong and Su Yu talked for a while, without mentioning what happened in the afternoon.
She and Su Yu met late. Su Yu had always been a person who didn't care about anything else. Besides, he didn't know much about Peng Ye's case, so there was no need for him to worry about it.
Then, Su Tong went upstairs and chatted with his grandfather for a while.
Grandpa was in good spirits after waking up, but after all, he had been lying down for a long time and his body still needed to be nursed back to health and recovered.
Apart from going to the hospital for treatment regularly, my grandfather spent most of his time reading and resting in his room.
Su Tong cherishes his current life very much.
This is a kind of happiness that was lost and then found again.
With my grandfather and brother, my life is like a dream.
If you can get along well with your family, that’s the icing on the cake.
If she couldn't, she wouldn't be too disappointed.
A child who has been lonely will not ask for anything extravagantly.
If it is too perfect, it will seem unreal and out of grasp.
Later in the evening, the phone rang.
It was a call from the Academy of Sciences, informing members of the new project to gather next Monday. The new project was finally about to start.
Today is Saturday, and next Monday is the day after tomorrow.
Su Tong breathed a sigh of relief. This project had been a long time coming from its inception to now, and it was finally about to begin.
In the evening, Su Wenqian came back with Lin Xiuqing.
As soon as they saw Su Tong, they told her that the Qin family would come to their house as guests tomorrow.
Apparently, they didn't know she was kidnapped.
Su Tong didn't mention it either.
Mentioning it would only make everyone more nervous for no reason.
As for Lin Jiao, she and Qin Yi both knew that it was she who did it.
However, there is currently no direct evidence to prove this.
Of course, the evidence will be found.
There will definitely be one.
The more she jumped around, the more she would be exposed.
Su Tong hoped that she would be even more impatient, as that might reveal more clues about Mr. Peng.
And she had a feeling that this day was not far away.
"Xiaotong! Xiaotong!"
Seeing that Su Tong was a little absent-minded, Lin Xiuqing asked worriedly:
"Xiaotong, are you worried that the Qin family will mention the engagement tomorrow?"
"Ah——" Su Tong was a little slow to react.
Lin Xiuqing took her hand and sat down on the sofa, saying softly:
"Xiaotong, if you don't want to get engaged now, just tell mom in advance and I'll help you reject it! To be honest! We really want to keep you for a few more years! You've been out there for so many years and haven't lived with us properly! We can't bear to see you get married like this!"
