Actually, he didn't know why he was going to follow them, but since he had already gone with the two people, he might as well go and see what was going on.
Jiang Mei followed the man to a less crowded place before the two dared to walk side by side. What puzzled Ning Hao was that the man looked quite old. Even if Jiang Mei was looking for a man, she shouldn't have chosen someone like him.
However, halfway there, the man separated from Jiang Mei. Ning Hao checked the time and realized it was indeed time for work. Instead of going with Jiang Mei, he followed the man.
As for why, he simply had a gut feeling that the man's clothes and appearance didn't seem like those of an ordinary worker.
Following along, they ended up at the tobacco bureau. After watching the man go inside, Ning Hao wandered around outside for a while before stepping inside, only to be stopped by the responsible security guard.
"Young man, who are you looking for?"
Ning Hao walked over with a smile. "Grandpa, I want to ask you about someone. Is Miao Xin here? I'm looking for Miao Xin."
"Are you looking for Officer Miao?"
Ning Hao smiled and nodded. The old man sized him up, his face full of righteousness, and the young man was quite handsome.
He nodded and pushed up his glasses. "Wait, I'll call him down for you."
Ning Hao casually asked, "Grandpa, who was that person who just went in? He had such an air about him, walking with such a straight posture. He was definitely not an ordinary person."
The old man chuckled. "That's our Director Cao. Among all these leaders, he's the most upright and muscular. Speaking of which, he's the father-in-law of Miao Xin, the one you're looking for."
Ning Hao looked surprised. "Father-in-law, my goodness, this official position is quite high-ranking."
The old man tried to contact Miao Xin via internal line, but Miao Xin wasn't there. "Comrade, I'm sorry, Officer Miao is out. If you're not in a hurry, just wait here."
Ning Hao waved his hand, "No, sir, I'll go find him later. I'll be going now."
Ning Hao turned and left, heading straight for the police station. He needed to report today's events to Song Shutian and the others. Although he hadn't found any evidence against Miao Xin's father-in-law and Jiang Mei, he felt something was off about the whole thing.
On the way, he ran into Jiang Qiao, who had just finished school. "Brother Ning, what's wrong with you? What are you doing here?"
Ning Hao took Jiang Qiao's bicycle. "Get on, let's go to the police station. We ran into some trouble. You'll know once we get there."
"What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?"
Just after Song Shutian finished studying the information on Cao Jingxuan's family of three, Ning Hao arrived, bringing Jiang Qiao with him.
Before he even spoke, Jiang Qiao could understand the expression on his face.
"Don't ask me, I'm still full of questions. This guy bumped into me on the way and dragged me here. What's going on?"
Ning Hao didn't waste any time and directly shared the information he had gathered on the way with the three people present.
Song Zhi was still a little short, but Jiang Qiao was the first to be surprised: "Miao Xin's father-in-law? Are you kidding me? By all accounts, he's not young anymore. Does anyone have Cao Jingxuan's information and photos? I want to see them."
Song Zhi handed the documents on the table directly to Jiang Qiao.
"Ning Hao, the Miao Xin you mentioned, he must be your friend, right? What's he like?"
Ning Hao frowned and said, "I haven't seen him for a long time either. Other friends of his have also stopped contacting him. I heard that since he got married, he has been focusing on his family. As for whether he has changed, I can't say for sure yet."
Jiang Qiao didn't have time to listen to Ning Hao's explanation about Miao Xin; all her attention was focused on the files.
Of the photos above, she had only seen one before, that was Miao Xin's wife. As for the other two, Jiang Qiao's eyes never left those two photos. After confirming that she really didn't recognize them, she began to study the contents of the file.
Not noticing anything amiss, I looked up and met Song Shutian's gaze.
"So, what are your thoughts?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "I can't tell anything, but I suggest you investigate. I haven't met this person before, so it's hard to say. Just looking at these dead bodies doesn't prove anything. If he's an enemy agent, they'll make a very impressive file that you can't criticize."
They'll even provide the people you need to investigate.
However, the fact that Brother Ning subconsciously followed someone makes me think we need to find out more about this person. Regardless of his relationship with Jiang Mei, let's leave that aside for now. At least it's good that he's not an enemy agent.
By the way, Tong Yun should identify the person in the photo to see if they are the one who poisoned Ning Hao's mother back then.
Also, are you sure you've hidden that old Japanese devil well? And any news from the post office?
Speaking of this, Song Shutian was somewhat frustrated: "The letter arrived over there but couldn't be delivered at all, and no one claimed it. I wondered how the other party knew there was something wrong with the letter."
Our people have also investigated. In the past, someone would come and pick up such letters on their own initiative. We don't know why this time, but that person didn't show up.
I strongly suspect that the other party already knew there was something wrong with the letter, or that they knew we were investigating this matter, so they simply stopped showing up.
We've asked the relevant people, and none of them have a strong impression of the person who received the letter. I suspect the old Japanese soldier didn't write many letters either.
Furthermore, they explained that the records of sending and receiving data would be destroyed after a certain period of time, so the trail has temporarily stalled.
Jiang Qiao was silent for a while. "The problem still lies with the post office, or here, or there. I suspect that the recipient has already seen the contents of the letter, but we just don't know it."
Song Shutian looked at Jiang Qiao with suspicion, "You mean there was a problem during transportation?"
Jiang Qiao nodded, then added, "Or perhaps the timing was wrong, which aroused their suspicion. Let's investigate slowly, and we need to investigate our side as well."
Song Shutian nodded. "The investigation has already begun, but there are no results yet."
If, as you say, the other party already knows the contents of the letter, they should probably start thinking of a solution now.
Although Ning Hao didn't know the details, after listening for a while, he could roughly guess the gist of it.
"I have a question. How did that old Japanese devil end up in this prison? Also, it's really illogical that so many enemy agents have appeared in our county. What exactly are they trying to do?"
Song Shutian gave a wry smile. "Before, it was about weapons, but now I can't say for sure. That old Japanese devil is very strange; you can't think about this with normal reasoning anymore."
Ning Hao, while you're resting, keep a close eye on Jiang Mei. I also feel that this woman is behaving strangely.
Not only Song Shutian found it unusual, but Jiang Qiao and Ning Hao also felt that something was amiss. Jiang Mei and Cao Jingxuan were completely unrelated, so how did they meet? Besides a romantic relationship, was there anything else between them?
