Chapter 399 401 Encounter
"Yes." The captain of team three took the order and left.
Huo Ye had originally planned to attend the banquet with Ning Qingyun. He had just changed into a handsome and well-fitting combat uniform, and when he came out he saw Chen Yufeng hurried away.
"Boss, why did Chen Yufeng look like he was on fire just now?" Huo Ye asked.
"Two members of Team Three are missing. We just discovered the distress signal they sent out. Chen Yufeng has gone to investigate the matter!" Ning Qingyun said briefly.
"Missing, distress signal, if something really happened, can they easily send out a distress signal? This can't be a strategy to lure the enemy! Deliberately lure us into the trap!" Huo Ye guessed subconsciously.
"It's possible, but since there was a distress signal left behind, the two missing people must have appeared in that area. Regardless of whether it is a trap or not, the surrounding area must be investigated carefully." The main reason is that they don't have any other clues now, and this location is the only clue at present.
Huo Ye looked at Ning Qingyun who had already changed his clothes and asked hesitantly, "Are we still going to attend the banquet today?"
"Go, of course you have to go. Team Three's main task is to monitor Yang Chao and his men. Now something's happened to someone in Team Three, and I'm afraid it's related to him. Tonight is a good time to find out his background. Besides, we have to go back to the capital to make a living in a while, and it's better not to offend people in the army if we can. But you don't have to go. You stay. You have the jade talisman for transmitting sound. If you have any news, notify me immediately." Ning Qingyun arranged.
"Yes, boss. Then let Zi Ting go in my place. He is very alert. Besides, if you take He Wen alone and my sister-in-law sees you, I'm afraid she won't treat you well in the future." Huo Ye suggested with a wink.
Because of some delays, when Ning Qingyun arrived at the banquet venue, most of the invited guests had already arrived.
The banquet hall was quite large, with an open space in the middle covered with red carpet. Guests gathered in groups of three or four chatting, and it was quite noisy. When Ning Qingyun was seen, there was a moment of silence in the hall.
Ning Qingyun's appearance was so outstanding, he was elegant and refined, handsome and unparalleled, with a strong aura. He seemed to have a fairy-like air about him, which automatically attracted the attention of all the guests.
Some of the guests began to discuss in a low voice, speculating about Ning Qingyun's identity and background. Ning Qingyun looked around but could not find Rong Xianxian.
Just as Ning Qingyun was frowning and thinking, Mingyin appeared in front of him quietly. It was unknown how he had managed to sneak into the team that was maintaining order at the banquet. When he saw Ning Qingyun arriving, he walked over calmly and led him to the seat assigned to him.
The seat next to him was Rong Xianxian. Their seats were relatively forward, with fewer seats around them.
Rong Xianxian, who was chatting with Cui Lie, Wang Lin and others, was stunned when she saw Ning Qingyun. There were so many people at the scene, it couldn't be such a coincidence!
Ning Qingyun walked towards her with light steps, followed by two subordinates, a man and a woman. Rong Xianxian still remembered the short-haired beauty behind Ning Qingyun. She was the only woman among the group of people who lived in the yard next to them and had come to visit her.
Ning Qingyun stared at Rong Xianxian silently. When he saw Rong Xianxian looking at him, he smiled slightly. That smile was bright and calm.
The smile was too bright and coupled with her stunning beauty, Rong Xianxian felt a little dazzled.
Rong Xianxian turned her head somewhat awkwardly. She originally didn't want to have anything to do with this man anymore, but she couldn't help but accept his things. Although she also gave a gift in return, the value was still a little less.
He was able to tamper with the seating arrangement of guests at the banquet hosted by Wen Qingming, and no one knew how he did it.
"Dad..." Xuanxuan shouted excitedly, and was glared at by Rong Xianxian. Xuanxuan realized that this was a public place and she couldn't make loud noises, so she quickly shut her mouth and stuck out her tongue cutely.
Compared with her previous dignified and quiet sitting posture, Xuanxuan was obviously a little restless at this time. She shook Rong Xianxian's arm and begged to go to Ning Qingyun's seat.
Xiao Luo also looked over curiously, and when she saw Ning Qingyun looking back at her, she quickly turned her head and frowned like a little adult, thinking, the person next to her is quite good-looking, but she doesn't know him, so why does her sister want to go to him?
Rong Xianxian said a few words in Xuanxuan's ear, and Xuanxuan finally calmed down.
It was dark outside and the lights in the banquet hall came on.
The power system of the Jindu Safety Zone uses solar photovoltaic power generation. In winter, the sunlight hours are short and the power is insufficient. Even in the military compound, only some important places have access to electricity.
After the lights came on, Wen Qingming walked in with his officers.
After a brief opening speech, the soldiers from the logistics team brought up plates of food. The large trays, half a meter long, were filled with fragrant grilled meat and fish. A bottle of pre-apocalyptic wine was placed at each guest seat.
"The conditions are limited. Please forgive us if our hospitality is not good enough." Wen Qingming said politely.
"Commander, you are so polite. It is our honor to attend your banquet." Someone in the crowd immediately said in support.
The people being represented had different expressions. Ning Qingyun stared at the young officer in military uniform standing behind Wen Qingming. According to the information Mingyin had provided before, this person was Yang Chao.
Yang Chao's facial features appear upright and honest, but a hint of gloom can be seen in the corners of his eyes when he occasionally droops.
Yang Chao seemed to notice Ning Qingyun's gaze and looked over here.
The first person he saw was Rong Xianxian, who was bringing food to the child. After all, the two had a deep grudge against each other and were in the same direction, so naturally the enemy would attract more of his attention. Yang Chao thought that it was Rong Xianxian who was looking at him, but he soon realized that something was wrong. The extraordinary man sitting next to Rong Xianxian was staring at him with a cold look.
Ning Qingyun kept his identity information confidential when he delivered the task. Although Wen Qingming knew him, he would not publicize his identity everywhere. Therefore, Yang Chao did not know Ning Qingyun's identity.
But since he was sitting next to Rong Xianxian, perhaps he had some relationship with her. Yang Chao looked at Rong Xianxian's relaxed and comfortable look with a sneer on his face. Knowing that Rong Xianxian would attend the banquet tonight, he specially made some arrangements to entertain her. Let's see how she would cope later.
After the food was served, Wen Qingming didn't waste time and distributed the materials he had prepared earlier. "Everyone is about to enter the capital. I'm sure you will be a little nervous when you first arrive in a strange place. Today, I will give you a brief introduction to the policies and environment of the capital so that you can familiarize yourself with it in advance."
