Lin Chuchu returned to her room and gently touched the cover of the book, imitating Old Zhao's actions.
Rumors...
Lin Chuchu kept repeating in her mind the pen names that Old Zhao had mentioned for the couple.
Wind... could it be a seam?
Lin Chuchu quickly took out a small knife from her spatial storage and carefully pried open the book's cover bit by bit.
The cover was pried open little by little, and sure enough, a layer of paper was seen inside.
Lin Chuchu opened it with great anticipation, only to find that it was all written in classical Chinese, which she couldn't understand.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Lin Chuchu quickly put the papers into her spatial storage and gently closed the two books.
Lin Chuchu opened the door, and Yang Xiao walked in from outside.
He gestured to Lin Chuchu to be quiet, then smiled and said, "I bought some hamburgers and cola, have a bite first."
He handed the bag to Lin Chuchu. The bag was heavy, and it contained only two books.
Lin Chuchu nodded, "Okay, you haven't eaten either, let's have a bite together."
She kept Yang Xiao behind because she had something to say to her.
The two approached the books. Yang Xiao gestured for silence, then picked up both books. Upon seeing the pried-open covers, she raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lin Chuchu.
Lin Chuchu nodded to him, indicating that she had found the item, but she hadn't had time to open the other one yet.
Yang Xiao took out a small knife and ran it along the seam of the book, slowly chipping it open.
Shining a flashlight inside, I located the spot and used a sharp object to pry the object out.
Lin Chuchu gasped in shock. Good heavens, it was a bugging device! These people really will stop at nothing.
Fortunately, she didn't say anything.
Then, Yang Xiao found another bugging device in almost the same location in another book.
Lin Chuchu rolled her eyes, then saw him find two more in the room.
Four listening devices were neatly placed on the table. How were the listening devices removed from the book and then put back in?
Yang Xiao nodded to Lin Chuchu, "I'm leaving now. My flight is tomorrow afternoon. I'll come find you."
"good."
Lin Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief as she watched him take the bugging device and the two newly bought books away.
Following the same method as before, take out another piece of paper from the other book given by Zhao Lao.
Both were written in classical Chinese. Lin Chuchu first took photos of the two pieces of paper using her spatial storage, and then put them into her spatial storage.
She casually flipped through the two books, trying to find out if there was anything else.
Suddenly she remembered that Old Zhao had repeatedly mentioned that his wife had passed away ten years ago. Could it be related to the number ten?
Lin Chuchu searched page by page, and on page ten, at the page number, she found writing marks.
It seems to have been left behind intentionally.
The handwriting was somewhat messy, as if it had been left in a hurry.
Lin Chuchu took out a pencil from her spatial storage and gently slid it across the paper, quickly revealing several numbers.
Lin Chuchu was speechless; Old Zhao really had a lot of ideas.
She copied the numbers down on a piece of paper, then flipped through the book, and found four numbers on every page with integers.
The sheets of paper were covered with numbers, and to make them easier to distinguish, she wrote down which page number she found on each number.
She was now vaguely curious, wondering what these things were and why so much effort had been put into concealing them so carefully.
However, none of this concerned her; all she needed to do was bring back the numbers on those papers accurately.
After finishing recording everything in the book, it was already past midnight. The hamburger had long since gone cold, and Lin Chuchu didn't want to eat it, so she simply took out a few steamed buns from her spatial storage.
The buns are hot when they are put in and hot when they are taken out, as the space has a heat preservation function.
Besides steamed buns, there was also juice. After being starving for two days in the dark room, she never wanted to experience hunger again.
After finishing her meal, Lin Chuchu opened another book, which was still filled with numbers. Lin Chuchu's eyelids twitched violently, but she gritted her teeth and continued writing.
They're leaving tomorrow afternoon, so everything needs to be written down.
It wasn't until late at night that Lin Chuchu finished copying the documents.
Finding nothing else, Lin Chuchu put all the papers into her spatial storage.
After thinking about it, I put the two books into the space as well.
The next morning, Lin Chuchu didn't get up and slept until ten o'clock.
I was woken up by Yang Xiao's knocking on the door.
After washing up, the two packed their things, putting the two books into the suitcase without any disguise.
After finishing their meal, the two took a taxi to the airport, found seats, and then waited.
Waiting to board.
Just then, several more police officers entered the waiting area, and the one in the lead was the same officer who had arrested Lin Chuchu that day.
The police checked everyone's bags and luggage one by one.
He walked up to Lin Chuchu, gave her a mocking look, and said, "Ms. Lin, we meet again. Please cooperate with us. We need to check if you are carrying any prohibited items."
Lin Chuchu and Yang Xiao exchanged a helpless glance. The other party was so blatant; they just wanted to take the book back. Even though they had checked it many times and found nothing wrong, they still wanted to take the book away.
The police led the two men's suitcases to a corner, where Lin Chuchu watched as they took the books out and brazenly put two identical books back in.
Lin Chuchu watched for a while, then turned her head away. She had already gotten what she wanted, so she pretended not to see the other person's little tricks.
There was a TV in the waiting room, and it was playing the news.
