This is big news; it involves spies and secret agents.
The investigators did not dare to delay and immediately reported it to their superiors.
The reply came quickly: the pattern was indeed the family crest of a Japanese army family named Aoki.
One of the young masters of the Aoki family was stationed in Jingshan County with troops.
It was also because he coveted the Luo family's medical books and prescriptions that he led the Japanese army to wipe out the entire Luo family.
Aoki Mitsuko could no longer hide the truth. Originally, she wanted to pin the blame on Xu Zhenzhu, saying that it was all because Xu Zhenzhu was jealous of Xu Ningyan and Gu Zhiyuan, so she spent a lot of money to hire her to kidnap Xu Ningyan.
Unexpectedly, the secret was revealed in this letter.
Now that they've pried open their mouths, there's no suspense left.
She revealed her background and the origin of the substitute.
The double was also prepared in advance by the mysterious person behind the scenes. Her origins are unknown. All she needs to do is act as a middleman and deliver the person to Luo Hanlian's side, and then she doesn't need to worry about anything else.
After the body double was sent to the county public security bureau, he was fine at first, but the next day he suddenly bit through the poison sac in his teeth and died.
The county public security bureau realized there was a mole and quickly transferred the person to the National Security Bureau, which was sent from above.
This is no longer something they and the Revolutionary Committee can interfere with.
What happened next was beyond Xu Ningyan and Gu Zhiyuan's knowledge.
They were sensible and didn't ask any more questions. In any case, they had managed to uncover a spy who had been lying low for many years, so the kidnapping wasn't a complete waste of time.
Both of them returned to their peaceful lives, but Sun Zhou, I don't know what he's been busy with, I haven't seen him for a long time.
The black market has also shrunk recently, now only doing business with acquaintances, and has changed locations, being very cautious.
When asked, Gu Zhiyuan only said that he had gone to another city.
Xu Ningyan naturally stopped asking questions.
In the warm spring of March.
Everything is growing, and the entire Jingshan County is enveloped in greenery.
The weather is gradually getting warmer.
Everyone took off their thick cotton-padded coats and put on spring clothes.
Although most people on the street only wear blue, black, and gray, there are always some fashion-conscious women who will wear red, pink, or plaid spring clothes, just like a few bright little flowers blooming on a gray and gloomy land, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Chen Fangfang's hair tie business is doing well. The hair ties she designs are now worn by women in the county, bringing a touch of vibrancy to this dull era.
The design competition at the machinery factory was nearing its final submission deadline. Gu Zhiyuan checked his drawings one last time before sealing them up and having the machinery factory submit them to the provincial heavy industry.
After the blueprints were handed in, everyone felt a sense of relief.
Even Lu Kai, who had been feeling down, couldn't help but smile.
He even nodded to Gu Zhiyuan, as if declaring war: "This time, I won't let you have your way!"
Lin Feng, now Gu Zhiyuan's loyal underling and unofficial apprentice, flared up immediately upon hearing this: "With your skill level, do you need to give way to me? If you can't do it, you can't do it, why make excuses!"
Lu Kai smiled, a smile that seemed to carry something else in it. He didn't say much, only leaving out the words: "Then let's wait and see!"
Then he walked away.
Lin Feng watched Lu Kai walk away, scratched his head, and couldn't help but whisper, "Boss, why do I have a feeling that Lu Kai is up to no good? Whenever he smiles like that before, someone who doesn't get along with him is bound to be in trouble! Will there be any problems with your blueprints? That bastard didn't destroy your blueprints, did he?"
Lin Feng and Lu Kai grew up in the same residential area, and their families lived not far apart. Naturally, Lin Feng knew that Lu Kai was not the gentle and refined person he appeared to be. On the contrary, he was extremely vengeful, and Lin Feng was worried that Lu Kai would use underhanded methods.
It's a pity that with his straight-man brain, the most vicious method he could come up with was for Lu Kai to use his father's power to destroy Gu Zhiyuan's blueprints.
Gu Zhiyuan kept his head down reading, completely ignoring Lu Kai's harsh words.
He's been focusing all his attention on tutoring Xu Ningyan lately.
Xu Ningyan has not been allowed to go to the countryside for the past few months. Every day, he goes to the supply and marketing department to clock in and out, which takes up a lot of his time.
Moreover, for her safety, Gu Zhiyuan insisted that Xu Ningyan bring her lackeys along.
As a result, Xu Ningyan became the first employee at the department store to bring his dog to and from get off work every day.
The lackey is now well-fed and glossy thanks to Xu Ningyan's pampering; his fur and flesh clearly indicate that he's been eating well.
Moreover, during the two months that he followed Xu Ningyan to and from get off work, the lackey caught three thieves and caught two street thugs harassing young girls.
For a time, the security along Xu Ningyan's commute route was better than ever before.
Thieves and street thieves would never dare to come to this road again.
You should know that if you get caught by the police, at most you'll get kicked once or twice, get a lesson, be locked up for a couple of days, and then be released.
But the lackey caught him, and this ancestor of dogs really went for it and bit him.
With one bite, the arm was almost pierced through, and blood gushed out!
The predecessors who sacrificed their lives are either still lying in the hospital or still have scars on their arms and legs.
Especially those two who acted like hooligans, I heard they were so scared they became eunuchs, and now they can't even get an erection.
Even the police officers at the nearby police station were envious and discussed with Xu Ningyan the possibility of having his lackey become a police dog.
Xu Ningyan was initially envious, not expecting that even a lackey could be employed. However, upon closer inquiry, she learned that being a police dog meant worse food and drink than being at home, and there was always the risk of accidents. She promptly refused.
The police officers at the local police station were not surprised. In the countryside, if someone took just a few things, the dog owner would probably be overjoyed and agree.
But look at the dog's shiny fur and the flesh on its legs; it's obvious it's been carefully raised. Its family doesn't lack these things, so it's normal for them not to agree.
As usual, Xu Ningyan checked her watch and realized it was time to leave work.
After tidying up the desk, I locked the office door with Sister Yang and left.
The lackey was lying in the yard, not too far away, while several children from the department store's residential area were playing with him.
The lackey was indifferent, but occasionally wagging his tail would elicit gasps of surprise from the children.
Everyone knows that although the lackey is fierce, it won't hurt people as long as you don't provoke it. It also has a reputation for catching thieves and biting hooligans. Even parents of children just keep an eye on it from a distance and don't let it touch them.
In this day and age, children who are raised to be unruly and mischievous have all been pecked by chickens, ducks, geese, scratched by cats, and bitten by dogs.
If it's not serious, just leave it alone; it will heal on its own in a few days.
For severe cases, applying some gentian violet is usually sufficient.
When the lackey saw Xu Ningyan come out, he stood up, wagged his tail, and walked over.
Even after watching it for several months, Sister Yang couldn't help but feel envious: "Your dog is so intelligent and understanding! It's just a pity it's a male. If it were a female, I would definitely raise one of the puppies."
This isn't the first time Sister Yang has said this, nor is she the only one who has said it.
What young woman wouldn't envy and want to own a dog like that that can protect her?
The two chatted and laughed as they left the department store courtyard. As usual, Xu Ningyan picked up the groceries she had ordered along the way and strolled home.
The last time the lackey bit the hooligan, he saved the butcher from the state-run butcher shop. Her name was Li Cuiying, and she was an extremely straightforward girl.
Knowing that Xu Ningyan had to go to work and wouldn't be able to go grocery shopping at the right time, he took on the task of grocery shopping himself.
When the meat arrives, we'll reserve the best pork belly for Xu Ningyan, with a perfect balance of fat and lean meat.
If there are pig's trotters or pig's liver, Xu Ningyan will save some for her as long as she asks.
She even bought the daily vegetables for us, having a friend at the state-owned vegetable store next door help us choose them.
It's so tender and fresh, even better than the ones Xu Ningyan picked herself.
After greeting Li Cuiying, paying the bill, and giving her a handful of White Rabbit candies, both of them were very satisfied.
When I got to my front door, I was about to take out my keys to open it when I found that the door was already open.
Gu Zhiyuan is back?
Pushing open the courtyard gate, one sees not only Gu Zhiyuan but also Lin Feng.
At this moment, Lin Feng shouted indignantly, "This must be Lu Kai's doing! Are the leaders all blind? Boss, do you need to plagiarize that weakling Lu Kai's blueprints?"
Plagiarism?
Xu Ningyan was stunned.
