Xiao Yichen followed the liaison personnel to the outskirts of Hai City.
Outside a secluded house.
There weren't many houses around, and it looked quite deserted.
But in reality, every place that could hide people was already full of them.
Xiao Yichen, holding binoculars, perched on a large tree, carefully examining the house.
At this moment, everyone in the house is resting, and all the rooms are pitch black.
Xiao Yichen found nothing and put down his binoculars.
He turned to the personnel responsible for tracking and monitoring him: "Any findings?"
The man shook his head: "Not yet. That person returned with the items after exchanging them with Old He."
After returning, I didn't go out. I only appeared in the yard once. After dinner, I went straight to rest.
We have not found any traces of tunnels so far, but we cannot rule it out.
Furthermore, this place is quite close to the sea, so the possibility of them escaping cannot be ruled out!
Xiao Yichen nodded.
In Haishi, digging tunnels is quite difficult.
Low altitude, abundant water!
If they could actually dig a tunnel, then he would respect them as true heroes.
"Any news from Old He's side?"
Xiao Yichen then asked about He Laoxi, the well-known honest man in Shangwan Village.
The man nodded: "After arriving in Haishi, this person just drove around the city in circles."
He changed his appearance several times in an attempt to shake us off. We almost lost him several times, but luckily we caught up with him in the end. Guess what? He took the train to Suzhou.
After changing its appearance twice, it went to the home of an ordinary farmer.
The male head of the household then went out to the home of a resident in the next county.
Deputy Battalion Commander, guess what? This guy actually has a wife. That's his wife's house. She has two sons and several grandchildren.
He hasn't been home for so many years, yet he sends money home every year.
Also, his name isn't He Laoxi, it's He Xiduo. I heard he used to be a high-ranking official here.
He later disappeared. After returning home, he and his family packed their belongings, planning to leave by boat early this morning.
Our orders were to capture them all as soon as they boarded the ship!
But it's also difficult; if they catch them over there, they'll definitely be shocked over here!
Moreover, this line of events hasn't been clearly established yet; if we close the net immediately, we'll only alert the enemy. There's also a chance some will escape.
As Xiao Yichen listened to the man's report, his brows furrowed even more deeply!
That old man He is such a scoundrel!
There's even a home here!
Yeah, if he can be a spy, why can't he be a scumbag?
It's just tough on Aunt He and her children!
They will all be implicated.
Alternatively, they could sever ties with him.
However, it will still have some impact.
And what's more, this old man He is actually trying to run away?
Where to run? Across the street?
The higher-ups ordered that everything be taken down in one fell swoop!
But how am I supposed to serve this? These aren't foods that can be cooked together!
If you serve it too late, some people will run away; if you serve it too early, some people won't even be cooked yet.
If He Laoxi isn't arrested now, he'll definitely escape!
It's impossible to catch them again.
Unless we defeat the other side!
If we arrest them, things will get out of control, and then we'll have to figure out how to get the rest of them out!
Furthermore, it remains unclear whether the contingency plan he left behind in Shangwan Village will be effective.
In short, it's a complete mess.
After thinking for a while.
Xiao Yichen said, "Go, find someone to contact the Navy and see if they want to conduct additional training."
Ask them if it's feasible to apprehend the people at the sea market in the early morning, after they've gone out to sea, by subduing them!
It would be unacceptable to make a move when He Laoxi boarded the ship.
The commotion is too great. If someone is watching, everyone will know they're being followed!
Forget about anything else!
After years of investigation, it was discovered that this was a criminal gang led by spies from the other side, smuggling and selling important cultural relics of our country!
Current investigations have revealed that they simply wanted to smuggle a batch of cultural relics out of the country.
Without any major actions, the harm is minimal!
However, Xiao Yichen frowned, feeling that something was not right!
Based on their experience, these spies are generally extremely dangerous.
Assassination, rioting, or even large-scale attacks are all possibilities.
Why are these people only thinking about getting rich?
What Xiao Yichen didn't know was that they were actually quite dangerous. They had prepared a batch of weapons and planned to launch an attack when a foreign prime minister visited the Red Flag Commune.
Unfortunately, that batch of weapons later mysteriously disappeared and its whereabouts are unknown.
The group of old men who had gathered could only grumble and leave!
Therefore, even now, they still believe that these people's purpose is merely to make money.
Even so, they attach great importance to it.
Because these are all state property.
Protecting national property and the lives of the people is the sacred duty of soldiers!
Fortunately, these people never underestimated their enemy, which is why they did not suffer heavy casualties in the subsequent battles!
Upon hearing Xiao Yichen's words, the person next to him suddenly smiled and said, "Deputy Battalion Commander, I knew you would come up with this idea! I'll go and make the contact right away."
After saying that, he descended from the tree like a ghost!
Xiao Yichen picked up the binoculars again and looked at the ordinary courtyard!
This must be a temporary stop!
He was certain that Old He had brought something with him!
He couldn't say how these people would move the goods away.
