Mu Qiao interrupted him: "I am willing."
"But you..." Qiao Lubai's guilty words were suppressed by Mu Qiao again! "Okay, stop talking, I have to go to the Marine Corps."
Mu Qiao said as he stood up and walked out.
"I'll take you there." Qiao Lubai grabbed the car keys on the table and followed her.
This morning, Qiao Lubai asked Heicheng to rent a car for transportation.
He had no plans to rent a car before, but in order to do some things, he thought it would be more convenient to rent two cars.
Before getting in the car, Qiao Lubai carefully looked around and checked whether the inside and outside of the car had been tampered with. Only after making sure that everything was fine did he let Mu Qiao get in.
As the car drove out of the Sakura Apartment parking lot, a black sedan drove out from the corner and followed from a distance.
Through the rearview mirror, Qiao Lubai had been paying attention to the situation behind the car. He thought, if the killers had already arrived in Zhouquan, the first thing they would do was to follow him and find an opportunity to strike.
...
...
Coming out of Sakura Apartment, Qiao Lubai spotted the black car following him. He drove calmly, looking back from time to time.
Mu Qiao was sitting in the passenger seat. She also noticed Qiao Lubai's actions. She did not ask directly, but glanced at the rearview mirror indifferently.
The black car that was following was very cautious and kept a long distance behind, so Mu Qiao did not see it.
Even without seeing it with his own eyes, Mu Qiao could sense that something was wrong behind the car.
After all, she knew that someone was trying to assassinate Qiao Lubai, so it was necessary to be more cautious.
At the entrance of the Marine Corps, Mu Qiao looked around when she got out of the car. She did not see any vehicle following her, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come in." Qiao Lubai did not get out of the car. He leaned his head out of the car window and said to Mu Qiao, "I have to go to Mr. Duan later, so I won't go in with you."
"Okay." Mu Qiao responded, waved to him, turned around and walked inside.
Qiao Lubai watched her back as she entered the Marine Corps gate, then took out his cell phone and called Xie Shaochen.
"Arrange accommodation for your sister-in-law and don't let her leave the camp at night." Qiao Lubai gave instructions and hung up the phone without explaining why.
Xie Shaochen looked at his phone in bewilderment. Qiao Lubai, what are you doing? You are so moody!
At this time, no one knocked on the office door.
Xie Shaochen quickly straightened his military cap and uniform, sat up straight, and looked as dignified as a chief of staff should.
"Come in!"
The door opened, and Mu Qiao, dressed in a neat military uniform, walked in. She walked to Xie Shaochen's desk and saluted Xie Shaochen with a standard military salute, "Hello, Chief of Staff Xie!"
"Sister-in-law..." Xie Shaochen stood up and almost shouted "Hello, sister-in-law". Fortunately, he reacted quickly and changed his words, "Hello, Political Commissar Mu!"
"Thank you, Chief of Staff. My main task during my secondment is to improve the discipline of the Marine Corps. Yesterday, I went to the training ground to take a general look. The Marine Corps is generally well disciplined, but some details need to be discussed in depth. I will write a report on the details and submit it to your office."
"Thank you for your hard work." Xie Shaochen was serious and smiling for once. He was not like this usually. He was serious, irritable, and always scolding people. This was his personality.
It's not his fault that he has a bad temper. The main reason is that soldiers nowadays are difficult to lead. The smart ones are disobedient, while the honest ones are clumsy. He is lucky that he didn't die of anger.
People who lead troops have bad tempers, this is an eternal truth. When Mu Qiao was leading troops before, he would get angry at the slightest provocation. Now that he has been transferred to clerical work, his temper has improved a lot and he never swears anymore.
In fact, Mu Qiao had read Xie Shaochen's information before he came here, and he knew a little about his temper and personality.
Mu Qiao was surprised to see Xie Shaochen so good-tempered.
However, this surprise soon disappeared.
When she went to the training ground to check the discipline in the morning, she witnessed Xie Shaochen training the troops with her own eyes. His temper was really explosive, even more explosive than when Mu Qiao led the troops.
Mu Qiao was secretly shocked, "Fortunately, I am not Xie Shaochen's soldier!"

After leaving the Marine Corps, Qiao Lubai did not go to Duan Lao's place. He was being followed by someone, and he could not take these people to harm Duan Lao. He had to go to a place with many people and cars to get rid of this follower.
Soon, Qiao Lubai's car arrived at the central square of the city. He made an appointment with Heicheng, and asked Heicheng to drive out a car exactly the same as his, and then the two of them would switch the car.
Half an hour later, Qiao Lubai successfully shook off the tail and went to the Sanjiang Apartment where Hei Cheng lived.
This apartment has a spare room that Qiao Lu rented out. There is a reason why a cunning rabbit has three burrows.
Not long after, Hei Cheng sent a WeChat message to Qiao Lubai, "Mr. Qiao, my tail was swayed, and I saw an acquaintance."
"Tell me about it." Qiao Lubai became interested.
Hei Cheng said, "I saw the shadow. He was among the killers."
"You actually saw him. Did he let you see him on purpose, or did you see him by accident?" Qiao Lubai's tone was indifferent, as if there was nothing strange about it.
Hei Cheng felt it, "Mr. Qiao, did you arrange this?"
"Smart." Hei Cheng chuckled when Qiao Lubai praised him for being smart again, "I knew you wouldn't fight a battle without preparation."
Hei Cheng suddenly stopped laughing and asked, "Mr. Qiao, is my sister-in-law in danger?"
"No, I've already sent her to the Marine Corps. As long as she doesn't come out, she'll be fine."
Qiao Lubai was full of confidence, but Xie Shaochen was worried.
"Sister-in-law, you have to accept this key. You can't come and go casually in the Marine Corps." Xie Shaochen stuffed the dormitory key into Mu Qiao's hand and said it in a reasonable way, "We are soldiers and can't leave the camp casually. I said before that we could live outside the camp, but that was an abuse of power. I will go and accept the punishment later."
In order to keep Mu Qiao in the Marine Corps, Xie Shaochen punished himself.
Mu Qiao knew that his sudden change of decision must have something to do with Qiao Lubai.
Could it be that those killers attacked Qiao Lubai?
The more Mu Qiao thought about it, the more anxious she became, but Xie Shaochen was still punishing himself. She couldn't get a pass to leave the camp. What should she do?

In the evening, Qiao Lubai received a message from Shadow, "Mr. Qiao, I have infiltrated this assassin organization, but they don't trust me very much. All operations are discussed in secret."
"I feel like you're in trouble this time. Big trouble."
After reading Shadow's message, Qiao Lubai smiled indifferently, but his expression was extremely solemn.
Has he met his match?
"Keep an eye on them, don't expose yourself, and be careful." After replying to the text message, Qiao Lubai changed his clothes, went out, and drove to the police station.
This matter is a bit tricky, maybe it would be more efficient if the police got involved.
"Boom——" Halfway to the police station, the whole car suddenly shook violently. If Qiao Lubai hadn't been wearing a seat belt, he would have been shaken out of the seat.
He felt something was wrong, so he immediately turned the car to a deserted dirt road and parked it. Before he could unbuckle his seat belt, another bang was heard...
