Xu Jianguo remembered that the last time he saw Mr. Su was when he accompanied Mr. Big and Mr. Little to inspect the Binhai Base. At that time, although the old man was thin, he had a ruddy complexion and gave people a very strong feeling.
But looking at the old man now, his gray hair and stubble make him look a little sloppy and shabby. The collar and cuffs of his military uniform have long been worn to a shine. His eyes are dull and his face is sallow. His originally straight back has now become slightly bent.
The already thin body became even thinner. Xu Jianguo felt that the old man was under tremendous mental pressure and his physical condition was on the verge of collapse.
There is a gatehouse in the yard of the old man's house, which was originally supposed to be reserved for his confidential secretary and guards, but now it is occupied by two young men in Zhongshan suits and three soldiers holding Type 81 rifles.
Since it was only a few days after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the nights in Jingzhou were still cold, so the few people did not stay in the yard, but hid in the house to smoke and chat. Looking at them talking and laughing, Xu Jianguo had an urge to tear them apart.
At this moment, a prompt sound rang in Xu Jianguo's mind. It was a message sent to him by Xu Yan, reminding him that a team of patrol soldiers was coming towards him.
After receiving the reply, Xu Jianguo immediately took Xu Fei back to the rockery and reunited with Xu Yan. Then the three of them flashed into the space.
After returning to the space, Xu Jianguo first checked the message sent to him by Fu Bo. The situation just now was special, so he did not have time to reply.
When he saw in the message from Uncle Fu that Wu Tianlong was in good condition and that there were indeed people monitoring the area around the nursing home, he felt relieved for the time being.
He replied to Fu Bo, asking them to hide and wait for his news, then he went into the study, took out paper and pen and started writing.
After returning to the space, Xu Jianguo gradually calmed down. He felt that in the current situation, taking Wu Tianlong away directly would inevitably bring huge trouble to Mr. Su, so he planned to write a letter to the old man and tell him about the current situation outside.
Soon, he put two sheets of manuscript paper filled with words into an envelope and handed it to Xu Fei. Then he took out two empty military canteens, one of which was filled with space well water, and the other was filled with the century-old Moutai stored in the cellar.
In addition to these things, he also asked Xu Yan to go to the supermarket to get some ready-made peanuts and vacuum-packed pork heads, unpacked them and put them in a lunch box. He also took a large white flour bun from the kitchen and finally put everything into a flour bag.
After thinking for a while, he stuffed another pack of Panda cigarettes into his bag and nodded with satisfaction.
After doing everything, Xu Jianguo asked Xu Fei to wait for his signal in the space. He needed to go back and check again. After making sure that there was no one else in the old man's small building, he would let Xu Fei go directly into the small building through the portal and hand the things to the old man.
Soon, Xu Jianguo appeared again next to the rockery inside the red wall, and then with the help of the God's perspective, he easily came to the outside of the courtyard wall and began to observe carefully.
When he was sure that the old man was the only one in the small building, he immediately sent a message to Xu Fei. Just a moment later, he saw Xu Fei appear in the bedroom on the second floor of Mr. Su's house.
At this time, the old man was sitting on the sofa on the first floor, his hands crossed on his thighs, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xu Fei quietly opened the bedroom door and walked out, but his feet still made some slight noises when stepping on the wooden floor, which immediately attracted the attention of the old man sitting on the sofa on the first floor.
The old man stood up from the sofa, raised his head and looked towards the stairs, frowning tightly. He thought someone was going to get rid of him.
The old man has been a soldier all his life. He was shot several times on the battlefield but was never afraid. Now that he is in his seventies, it is even less likely that he will be afraid of death.
But there was something he couldn't understand. It was obvious that he was more valuable alive than dead. He couldn't figure out why the people from the other faction wanted to get rid of him at this time.
However, just as he was daydreaming, Xu Fei's voice suddenly rang out from the stairs: "Don't be afraid, old man. Someone asked me to bring you something, and I left it in your bedroom. Also, that person asked me to tell you that Old Man Wu is fine, and Dawali is fine too. Just take care of yourself and don't worry about anything else. Good will prevail over evil, and as long as there is light in your heart, there is no need to fear mountains and rivers. Take care, and I'll take my leave now!"
As the words fell, the sound on the stairs disappeared. At this time, Su Dingshan's face was full of shock. He didn't know who this person was, nor did he know how he passed through many checkpoints and entered his bedroom on the second floor, but one thing he was sure of was that this person had no ill intentions, and he also mentioned Wu Tianlong and the Dawali base, which meant that this person could be trusted.
For some reason, the first person he thought of at this moment was Xu Jianguo, but the voice that spoke just now was obviously not his, so who could it be?
Su Dingshan glanced at the watch on his wrist and found that it was already past one in the morning, so he turned off the main lights in the living room, leaving only the wall lamp in the stairwell on, and walked slowly upstairs.
Since he was placed under house arrest, Su Dingshan has never slept in the bedroom upstairs. He usually sleeps on the sofa in the living room or in the study. Moreover, because he was worried about the situation outside, he also suffered from severe insomnia, which caused his physical condition to deteriorate day by day.
Su Dingshan went to the bedroom and turned on the light. He saw the cloth bag on the bedside table at a glance, but he did not pick it up and check it immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the situation in the room first.
When he found that all the doors and windows were intact, he was extremely shocked.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion from the people who were monitoring him outside, Su Dingshan walked to the bed, took off his military uniform and hung it on the hanger beside him.
Because it was dark outside and the light was on in his room, the people hiding in the dark saw his movements clearly and recorded them carefully.
Su Dingshan turned off the light in the bedroom and did not draw the curtains. Then he took out a flashlight from the drawer of the bedside table, picked up the cloth bag, walked out of the bedroom, and came to the storage room on the second floor.
