Mi Bao led two black dogs back into Li Xiyue's space through the spatial passage.
Its big eyes sparkled as it ran back and anxiously asked, "How is it? How is it? What is Mu Cangnan's identity?"
Li Xiyue said to Mi Bao, "Don't make a fuss! We haven't even opened the package yet, we'll know soon enough!"
Mibao's eyes were wide open, staring intently at the screen. It held a dried fish in its little paw, munching on it while watching the screen!
Looking at Mi Bao's standard posture as a gossipmonger, Li Xiyue almost laughed in anger. Is there anyone who loves gossip and watching the show more than her Tongzi?
Mu Cangnan opened the small package, and inside the small package was another small package.
I wonder how many layers Li Xiulan wore? There were so many layers, which shows how important this thing is!
The last inner layer was wrapped in oilcloth.
As Mu Cangnan opened the package, two small gold locks and several small gold bars were revealed inside.
Mu Cangnan picked up the gold lock and looked at it. It had "May you live a long and healthy life" written on one side and "A Qilin Brings a Child" written on the other. The two metal pieces looked exactly the same.
But there were only these eight characters on the gold lock, and nothing else.
The gold bars were also clean, small gold bars, about half an ounce each, and there were four of them.
Mu Cangnan's brow furrowed into a knot; this thing had no textual value whatsoever.
He said to Li Xiulan, "Mom, is there nothing else? Like letters or something?"
Li Xiulan shook her head and said, "No more..."
Mu Cangnan returned the gold lock and gold bars to Li Xiulan, saying, "Mom, you should keep these things."
Li Xiulan said, "You can keep it. It originally belonged to you brothers."
Mu Cangnan said, "These are useless to us, you can keep them."
If the family doesn't have enough money, they'll exchange the gold bars for cash to supplement their household expenses.
Li Xiulan opened her mouth as if to say something, but nothing came out.
Mi Bao said in the space, "That's not right, why is there only a gold lock and gold bars and nothing else?"
If all of this was given to me by that old lady, she'll definitely tell me important information about the two children, right?
Li Xiyue said, "Did you notice that Li Xiulan's eyes were looking at her toes just now, not at Mu Cangnan?"
Moreover, she seemed a little hesitant when she spoke just now…
Honey said, "What does that mean? What does that mean? Tell me quickly!"
Li Xiyue said, "This means that Li Xiulan is hiding something from Mu Cangnan. She must be hiding a lot of things!"
Just as Li Xiyue and Mi Bao were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door!
Mibao tapped on the screen in the space. It had installed a camera outside the door, and by switching the view, they could see what was happening outside.
Suddenly, Song Haoqiang and several comrades in military uniforms appeared on the large screen in the space.
Looking at the images on the large screen, Li Xiyue asked, "Why did Song Haoqiang bring the inspection team with him?"
"What happened to the inspectors?" Mi Bao asked.
Li Xiyue said, "The inspectors are specifically in charge of military personnel, such as their appearance, discipline, and any improper conduct."
Song Haoqiang is Mu Cangnan's best friend, so it's normal for him to come here to see Mu Cangnan.
But it's unusual that he brought the inspection team to see Mu Cangnan!
Hearing the knock on the door, Li Xiulan said to Mu Cangnan, "You two rest. I wonder who it is. I'll go see."
She went out of the room and into the yard to open the door.
Mu Cangnan followed him out.
Li Xiyue reached out and put all the gold locks and gold bars on the table into her space.
Her brow was furrowed, and a sense of unease hung over her.
The courtyard gate opened, and Song Haoqiang led his men in.
When Mu Cangnan saw that it was Song Haoqiang, he asked, "Old Song, what brings you here?"
Song Haoqiang's face was grim. He said to the inspectors behind him, "This is Mu Cangnan! I knew nothing about him concealing his identity. I urge the organization to investigate thoroughly."
The head of the inspection team said, "We understand that if he were deliberately hiding it, he certainly wouldn't tell you."
The captain stared at Mu Cangnan with hawk-like eyes and asked suspiciously, "Mu Cangnan, you deliberately concealed your identity from the organization. We are going to take you back for investigation now!"
Li Xiulan hurriedly said, "My son didn't deliberately hide his identity! He doesn't know anything!"
He was only one year old when we brought him home. What could a one-year-old know? I deliberately didn't tell him. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me!
Even an ignorant old woman like her could tell from this formation that these people were definitely up to no good!
Mu Cangnan stepped in front of Li Xiulan, and she and the inspector captain both said, "I'll go back for the investigation. Let's go!"
The captain waved his hand and said to his men, "Search! Search the entire yard! See if there's any important evidence!"
The comrades scattered and ran to each room, searching for what they wanted.
"Thank goodness you put the gold lock and gold bars into your space!" Mi Bao said in the space.
Li Xiyue said, "But I don't know what else Li Xiulan is hiding?"
She used her X-ray vision to look through every room, and the inspectors opened all the cabinets and examined the contents one by one.
Fortunately, Li Xiyue's worst fears did not come true. These people searched through everything in the cabinet but did not find what they wanted!
The inspectors all came out to report to their captain.
"Captain, we've searched the entire area, but there's nothing there!"
"Captain, there's nothing there!"
"There is no significant evidence regarding Mu Cangnan's identity."
The captain said, "Take Mu Cangnan away!"
Several young comrades came over, wanting to recommend Mu Cangnan.
Mu Cangnan said, "No need to push, I can walk by myself, let's go!"
Li Xiyue followed and said, "You go first, I'll always be with you!"
She gave Mu Cangnan a reassuring look. With so many people around, she couldn't say anything to Mu Cangnan, so she could only give him a look.
Clearly, this was not the result Song Haoqiang wanted. He awkwardly wiped the cold sweat from his brow…
He said to Mu Cangnan, "Um... Lao Mu, I'm just doing my job, I didn't mean anything else!"
Mu Cangnan nodded slightly. He didn't say anything to Song Haoqiang. He strode out of the courtyard and got into the inspection team's car.
Song Haoqiang followed him out.
Mi Bao said in the space, "Pah! Now I know who the spy is, it must be Song Haoqiang!"
As Li Xiulan watched Mu Cangnan being taken away, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face.
She cried out, her voice choked with sobs, "My son! My son! What are we going to do? He doesn't know anything! You can't do this to him!"
