Chapter 54 Take you to the cafeteria



"Did you really make this detector yourself?"

Xia Wenqiang looked at the mini detector and then at Li Xin, still feeling incredible.

If you can make such a mini detector just by looking at the model, then it can be said to be genius!

Although they all didn't believe it, Xia Wenqiang didn't look at her with questioning eyes like the other two people did. He was just simply surprised.

"Hmm..." Li Xin nodded.

Xia Wenqiang recorded this incident. Although he was surprised, he still chose to believe Li Xin.

Which spy would come and inform on others on his own?

He Beichen was beside her, looking at her thoughtfully, wondering what he was thinking about at the moment.

"This matter needs to be investigated thoroughly. We must first determine the location of the landmine." Xia Wenqiang put down the detector and continued to the next step.

The incident with the detector was finally over, and Li Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief behind He Beichen.

Looking at a topographic map of the mountain that Xia Wenqiang brought over, Li Xin read it very carefully, comparing it with the route he remembered from his previous climb up the mountain.

This topographic map, at a scale of 1:100, is easy to understand.

"Comrade Xiao Li, please mark the approximate location of the mines on this map first. We will arrange people to check it out later." Xia Wenqiang handed her another pen.

Li Xin took it and after comparing it carefully, he marked the location where the man was found before.

He Beichen walked to Li Xin's side at this time and watched her mark on the map.

Li Xin had told him the location before, and explained it very clearly, even telling him the approximate range of the possible landmines.

At this moment, Li Xin felt that the matter was of great importance. In order to prevent the people conducting the investigation from being accidentally injured, she also marked the range she predicted, and the location she drew was even larger than the location she predicted.

There was only one person on the other side, and he had to carry the mines up the mountain and bury them, so there shouldn't be too many.

Moreover, judging from the location of his pace after he met Li Xin before, it was not difficult to guess where the man might have buried the mines.

He Beichen looked at her carefully marking and suddenly felt that his young wife might not be as weak and unable to take care of herself as he had imagined.

"I don't know if they will continue to bury mines on the mountain at night. If they are still there, if we just run over to search the mountain, will they just detonate all the mines?" Li Xin handed over the drawn map, still a little confused.

She originally thought that she should rush up the mountain to catch the person, but after thinking carefully, she realized that if she rushed up rashly, there might be danger during the capture process.

"We have to first confirm that there are mines on the mountain as you said, before we can arrest people." Xia Wenqiang waved his hand.

They cannot arrest people without confirming that it is true.

Therefore, it is unlikely that they will go up the mountain to search in a high-profile manner. They will only seal off the back mountain first and prevent nearby residents from entering the mountain to ensure the safety of the people first.

They often conduct field training in the mountains, so with this as an excuse, there is no need to worry about arousing much suspicion when closing the mountain.

"Oh." Li Xin nodded slightly after hearing that.

Yes, but if that’s not the case, wouldn’t she be accused of lying about military intelligence?

"The detector you made is really good." Xia Wenqiang played with the mini detector in his hand.

The mountain search cannot be done too high-profile. If the army's detectors are used, it will be too obvious.

If the people who buried the mines are really still hiding in the mountains, and they see them going up the mountain with the detector, who knows what they might do.

If you use this mini detector, you don't have to worry about this.

Wear casual clothes and carry this mini detector for easy disguise.

Why are we suddenly talking about the detector again?

Li Xin looked towards Xia Wenqiang and felt inexplicably nervous.

"Do you mind if we keep this detector?" Xia Wenqiang asked when he saw her looking at him.

Xia Wenqiang pushed the topographic map marked by Li Xin aside and showed it to the other two people, while he himself held the mini detector and was reluctant to let it go.

"Okay, okay. I... I just did it for fun. I'm honored to be of use." Li Xin certainly had no objection.

Anyway, this thing is of no use to her in her hand.

Even if it is really needed, she can just make one later. Her research institute has the materials.

"Okay, we've asked all the questions we need to ask. As for what happened on the mountain, we will investigate it thoroughly. You can go back with He Beichen now." Xia Wenqiang put away the detector and ended the interrogation.

How to arrange the investigation afterwards, whether to arrest people, etc., are the army's matters, and there is no need to inform Li Xin of the specific arrangements.

Xia Wenqiang was thinking about sending this mini detector to the research institute tomorrow. It would be even better if more could be made.

"Okay." Li Xin stood up from the interrogation chair and left with He Beichen.

"I just packed two lunch boxes, but I didn't have a chance to eat." Li Xin walked out of the interrogation room and saw He Beichen picking up the lunch box outside. He couldn't help feeling regretful.

The lunch box is not insulated, and the food inside has already gone cold after being left there for such a long time.

And now they can all go home. Li Xin thinks that instead of eating cold food here, it would be better to heat it up when they get home.

"There is a canteen in the army." He Beichen said.

"Um?"

What's the meaning?

Do you want to take her to the army canteen for dinner?

But after I asked the question, it was already past mealtime. Is there still food in the cafeteria at this time?

"Let's go to the cafeteria to eat." He Beichen took Li Xin's hand and walked towards the cafeteria.

It was completely dark at this time, but the lights were still on in the cafeteria. He Beichen took Li Xin in.

There were about ten people in military uniforms inside. Some were sitting and eating, while others were holding trays and preparing to serve food at the window.

The cafeteria is very large, enough to accommodate hundreds of people dining together. There are many windows for serving food, but only one is open now, after all, it is past mealtime.

"..." Li Xin felt more than ten gazes falling on him, and subconsciously dodged towards He Beichen.

This is not friendly to people with social anxiety!

The moment the two of them stepped into the cafeteria, everyone in the cafeteria looked at them with surprise and curiosity.

This is a military base, and even the people serving the food are soldiers from the kitchen. No women would come here to eat, so it's no wonder that everyone is looking at her.

"Find a seat first, I'll go get some food." He Beichen glanced at them coldly, causing those who were looking at him to look away guiltily.
