Chapter 174 They Are Coming
At noon, Lin Xi just cooked casually, but at night, Lin Xi put her heart into it, and even the appearance of the dishes was better than at noon.
Looking at everyone at the table eating voraciously, Lin Xi found it amusing. This could be considered a kind of alternative cultural invasion.
Before he knew it, another week had passed. Owen followed Lin Xi around, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks every day, and he felt that he had gained a lot of weight.
During this period, he contacted several cameramen. The worst-off one hid in the woods with a couple. He had poor food, drink and sleep every day, and his head was covered with bites from all kinds of small insects.
The rest were not much better off, following the fugitive everywhere, and one was hiding on the island, eating potatoes and bread every day.
Owen couldn't help but show off on the phone, making the cameramen extremely envious.
That night, Lin Xi slipped out quietly again to meet with Song Huaijin.
It’s the same bar as last time.
Song Huaijin still sat in the same seat as last time.
Lin Xi went in but did not find any surveillance. These people had followed Song Huaijin for more than ten days but gained nothing and almost gave up on this clue of his.
There is still no news about where Professor Zhao is being held.
Lin Xi sighed. Although she lived a comfortable life, she couldn't afford to waste every day.
Now we can only hope that the military intelligence officers will be more helpful and find out where Professor Zhao is being held as soon as possible.
That evening, Lin Xi was teaching the hostess how to cook Chinese food when she suddenly had a feeling in her heart.
She released her spiritual sense and carefully explored the surroundings.
She soon discovered that the man of the house was driving back with two strange men in the car.
One of the men sitting in the back seat had a camera on his shoulder.
Not only that, there was another car following behind the man's car.
At this moment, the two cars were about one kilometer away from the house.
Her spiritual awareness can now reach further.
Lin Xi listened carefully to their conversation and heard the male host say to the man in the passenger seat, "I still don't quite believe it. She doesn't look like a wanted criminal at all."
"Not only does she speak several languages, but she's also an excellent cook. She also has a very kind and gentle personality."
"What crime did she commit?"
The man in the passenger seat looked serious. "We can't be sure it's her right now, but there aren't many Orientals in this city. Suddenly, a strange Oriental girl shows up. We need to investigate thoroughly."
"Don't worry, if she isn't a wanted criminal, we won't do anything to her."
Hearing this, Lin Xi put down the spatula in her hand and said to the hostess, "You cook, I'm going to the bathroom first."
She winked at Owen, who was filming, and motioned for him to follow her upstairs.
Owen watched as the camera followed her, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xi said calmly, "Pack up and get ready to leave. I have a bad feeling the arrest team might be arriving soon."
She went upstairs and packed her things as quickly as possible, then went downstairs carrying her travel bag.
Owen was also very quick. He put away the camera and followed Lin Xi out.
Owen walked in front to facilitate filming. Seeing him walking straight to the gate, Lin Xi whispered, "Go to the back."
After saying that, he went around to the back of the house and ran faster.
There is a forest not far from the villa where the family lives.
Lin Xi quickly ran into the forest. Owen, carrying a camera weighing dozens of kilograms, risked his life to catch up with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi ran in the forest with Owen, and did not forget to send a wisp of spiritual consciousness to the house behind them.
A moment later, she saw two cars pull up in the yard.
The man got out of the car, opened the door, and led the two men into the house.
The rest of the people went around the house to look around.
After entering the house, the man shrugged and said, "I think she should be in the kitchen with my wife at this time."
"Where is the kitchen?" the two men asked.
The man pointed in the direction and the two of them hurried to the kitchen.
The cameraman quickly followed.
When I walked in, I saw only the hostess cooking. The food in the pot was about to burn, but she hadn't turned off the fire yet and was still waiting for Lin Xi foolishly.
Seeing two strange men, the hostess was surprised, "Who are you?"
A man pulled out his cell phone and said, "We are federal agents. This is a wanted poster. Please take a look."
The hostess stared at the wanted poster on her phone for a long time, then suddenly threw away the spatula and exclaimed, "Oh my God, is this Luna?"
Another man asked, "Where is she?"
The hostess was still in shock, "She, she just went to the bathroom."
A man asked anxiously, "Where is the bathroom?"
At this moment, Lilith, who had been standing by the door, suddenly ran in and asked, "Are you the police?"
A man nodded, "Yes, we are the police."
Lilith said seriously: "Are you planning to search my house now?
The man continued nodding, "Yes, we suspect this Luna is the wanted criminal we are looking for."
Lilith tilted her head and looked at them. "If you want to search, please show me the search warrant!"
"Also, I want to see your ID!"
There was naturally no search warrant, and no identification documents existed.
They are just former police officers and former intelligence agency staff, not current staff.
The two men didn't expect that the little girl was smarter than her parents. Although they were allowed to check the traffic network and all surveillance facilities, it was still illegal to break into private homes.
What's more, there is a camera!
The man finally came to his senses and said, "Yes, I need to see your work IDs."
The two felt a little awkward.
Lilith looked at the camera again, "Why do you have a cameraman filming here?"
When they heard the word "also", their eyes lit up. "Have you seen the cameraman before?"
The host and hostess had realized at this point that something was wrong. These two men couldn't produce any identification and still wanted to search the house. There was obviously something wrong.
The hostess quickly said, "Lilith, don't say anything more to them."
The man looked at them and said, "I don't believe you anymore. Unless you show me your ID, please leave my house immediately!"
The two pursuers looked at each other awkwardly and had to start explaining to the family that they were filming a variety show.
After hearing the explanation, the couple was skeptical. They exchanged glances, and the man said, "Sorry, if that's the case, please leave. You can't search our house without a search warrant."
No matter how the two pursuers tried to persuade them, the couple refused to agree to their search.
Lilith suddenly ran upstairs. After a while, she ran down again, crying, "Luna is missing. She must have left. I see all her things are gone!"
The two pursuers quickly ran out the door and said to the people outside, "It's almost certain it's Lin Xi. She should still be nearby. Quickly send out the drone to search."
