Rong Zhaonan's feelings were complicated.
If I had been led to the place by her earlier, regardless of how much pain she was in, and had just forced myself on her, she wouldn't have had time to make sarcastic remarks.
But even with just that thought, she felt a burning pain as soon as it went in a little, her face turned pale, and her whole body stiffened.
He just couldn't bring himself to do it.
Rong Zhaonan frowned and decided to change the subject to something serious, hoping to distract Commander Ning, who was very dissatisfied with his performance.
As he massaged her swollen and painful areas, he asked, "What did Tang Jun say in the warehouse today? Did you get any clues about who was behind this?"
Ning Yuan's attention was indeed drawn to the important matter at hand.
She immediately perked up: "He is very cunning. I tried to get information out of him, but all I could find out was that people from the capital wanted to get back at you."
She thought for a moment and added, "I was locked in that room partitioned off by sheet metal, which has poor sound insulation."
"So I can hear the sounds coming from inside the office clearly."
"After Tang Jun caught me, he told Ah Zhong that he was going back to his room to make a phone call, which lasted at least ten minutes."
Ning Yuan was very puzzled: "But strangely, I couldn't hear anything he was saying on the phone."
The tin shack was poorly soundproofed. She originally wanted to listen to what Tang Jun was saying, even if she could hear just a few words, they would be clues!
Even with her ear pressed against the wall, she couldn't hear what Tang Jun was saying in his room!
Rong Zhaonan said thoughtfully, "That only proves one thing—Tang Jun's room has excellent soundproofing. As someone who has been lying in wait for many years, his room certainly wouldn't be accessible to his subordinates."
If Tang Jun were such a complete idiot, he wouldn't have been able to keep the police under surveillance for eight years without them finding his hideout.
They never revealed any flaws.
Ning Yuan sat up and asked him to massage her shoulders, thinking about the scenes she had seen in crime dramas in her past life.
"If we check his landline records, is it possible to find out who he called, or who called him?"
Rong Zhaonan paused for a moment: "These are the most basic methods of investigating cases. Ying Gang and the others all know them, so there's no need to worry."
Ning Yuan looked at him, her delicate brows furrowing slightly: "Do you think it's unlikely that Ying Gang and the others could find out who was behind this incident so easily?"
He didn't seem to have much hope.
Rong Zhaonan warmed the ointment in his palm and said casually, "Using encrypted lines for telephone calls is already the most basic espionage and security measure. Besides, there are many other ways to avoid being tracked."
Ning Yuan sighed, letting him apply the medicine for her: "I was overthinking it. Let the professionals handle the professional matters."
In the mid-1970s, automatic telephone exchanges replaced manual operators, and all manual telephone calls were phased out.
Domestic telephone numbers have also increased to four digits, and the telephones are desktop dialers. Only government agencies and large organizations install switchboards.
This is not as easy to trace as manual wiring before and after liberation.
In a few years, when pager services appeared in mainland China, they became even harder to track.
To reiterate, if Tang Jun and the mastermind were idiots, they would have been exposed long ago.
She paused, then her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at Rong Zhaonan—
"However, the person who can command Tang Jun must have influence in the capital."
"The key point is, how could the mastermind know that I am your wife? That's not a lot, is it?"
By using the process of elimination, we can at least narrow down the range of suspects!
While rubbing her back, Rong Zhaonan said, "Ying Gang is still leading a lot of people to search the warehouse for evidence. After dinner, I will discuss it with Ying Gang and the others. You will have to give a statement tomorrow."
That warehouse was a large regional espionage hub.
Within these three days, the police and security agencies will have to dig deep inside, searching for clues about Tang Jun's superiors and subordinates.
We also need to organize the chain of evidence, take various statements, and investigate clues.
These tedious follow-up tasks were not his forte, which is why he brought Ning Yuan back alone.
Ning Yuan nodded, then couldn't help but yawn: "Mmm!"
Ning Yuan was indeed very tired today; her mind and body had been pushed to the limit.
Rong Zhaonan has large hands, and his massage pressure is just right.
Her discomfort had subsided considerably, and she drifted off to sleep.
Rong Zhaonan pulled the blanket up for her and noticed a few drops of blood, resembling plum blossoms, on the sheets. He frowned slightly.
He only penetrated a little bit, and she was already bleeding? Was she too delicate and small, or was he too rough...?
He had never been with any other woman, nor had anyone taught him, so there was no comparison.
Rong Zhaonan looked at her sleeping with a deep, uneasy gaze.
In her deep sleep, the girl's delicate brows were tightly furrowed as she tossed and turned in bed several times, even curling up into a semi-curled-up position.
She said she didn't care, but she was still just a young girl who had never experienced such an extreme life-or-death crisis.
Rong Zhaonan closed his eyes; after all, it was he who had dragged her down with him.
He sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and pressed the thin blanket down, pulling it up for her.
Not long after, Chen Chen knocked on the door and brought over a large bundle.
"Captain, everything you asked for is inside."
Rong Zhaonan took it and suddenly said, "In the capital, besides the Xiang family, what are He Su, Rong Xiangdong and Qin Hongxing's recent movements? Have someone keep an eye on them and find out who they've been seeing."
Chen Chen was taken aback, his handsome face instantly turning serious: "Captain, you suspect that this matter involves either the Xiang family or..."
Chen Chen paused for a moment: "It's someone close to the old leader, is there any evidence?"
This is a very serious accusation. The captain suspects that He Su has an affair with a hidden enemy agent. If things go wrong, even the captain himself could be implicated.
After all, He Su is a member of the Rong family; in this kind of situation, they share both the glory and the loss.
A cold, unfathomable light flashed in Rong Zhaonan's eyes: "It's just an intuition. If I had evidence, I would have already handed some people's heads and the evidence over to the old man."
Chen Chen was silent for a moment: "Okay, I'll have someone investigate."
The captain was very sensitive to danger, and that intuition saved his brothers many times on the battlefield.
“If something were to happen to me or your sister-in-law, whoever would benefit the most would be the suspect.” Rong Zhaonan opened the bundle and checked its contents.
Chen Chen looked at his captain and sighed, "Yes!"
While Rong Zhaonan was opening his bundle, he took advantage of his height of over 1.9 meters and peeked into Rong Zhaonan's dormitory.
Sure enough, a beautiful head of long, black hair with big curls fell from the blankets on the bed.
"Don't you want your eyes anymore?" Rong Zhaonan seemed to have eyes on his forehead; he knew what he was doing without even looking up.
Chen Chen grinned at his captain and teased, "It's nothing, just checking out our cousin."
Rong Zhaonan raised his cold eyes and looked at him: "You're very free."
Upon seeing the look in his captain's eyes, Chen Chen quickly shook his head: "No, I have something to do later. Um... right, Ying Gang asked me to go help out."
He was about to run away after saying that, but the next moment, someone grabbed his collar from behind.
The captain's cool voice rang out: "Old Tang was afraid that Ah Hei and Ah Bai would scare the students if they came out, so he stayed at home for a long time without any exercise and gained a lot of weight."
Chen Chen instantly had a bad feeling.
