Sister Liu seemed to have found a way to discover the mole. She was very excited and wished she could lie in ambush at the gatekeeper in advance so that she could report anyone who approached.
Upon hearing this, Su He quickly stopped her, lest she be reported for acting suspiciously before anyone else was even seen.
Disappointed, Sister Liu cancelled the plan.
Seeing this, Su He quickly left, fearing that if she lingered any longer, she would be forced to join Sister Liu's plan to find the traitor.
However, once she got home, her expression turned serious. It seemed that the research institute had set up a tight trap.
With such strict requirements, it would be very difficult for the mole to pass on the message. However, the false information provided by the research institute is very important and must be spread as soon as possible. Therefore, she estimated that the mole would definitely not continue to lie low and would have to take a risky move.
That will be the time when he slips up.
I wonder if she can seize this opportunity.
...
Sure enough, the atmosphere in the family compound grew increasingly tense over the next few days. The researcher who had been called away earlier had not returned and was clearly being kept in the office building.
As for family members who need to go to work, they also took leave directly.
Even the logistics staff who need to buy groceries no longer go out; reliable outsiders deliver them, and the process doesn't involve contact with anyone.
But several days passed and the mole still hadn't taken any action, so the atmosphere in the family compound became increasingly tense.
Family members who need to go to work are particularly anxious, and some even want to band together to ask the leaders at the front for leniency.
But they were rejected before they even met the person.
The leader had only one sentence: anyone who disobeys orders will be prosecuted as a thief.
After hearing this, the others dared not cause any more trouble. They felt a great resentment towards the thief and wished they could find him as soon as possible.
Su He hasn't been idle these past few days either, still carefully observing the actions of those she suspects.
Overall, nothing has changed. Yang's wife still doesn't go out often and stays at home writing.
Grandma Zhu still takes her daughter-in-law for a walk every day without fail.
Jiang Wenxiu was rather irritable. Apparently, she had run out of face cream and wanted the logistics department to bring her some, but the logistics department couldn't go out recently and could only bring her necessities such as food and vegetables, nothing else. So these past few days, she could often be seen grumbling and cursing.
Su He was a little suspicious. Did she really want to buy the face cream, or was she trying to test whether she could send the message out?
But in such a tense situation, instead of trying to disguise himself, would such an obvious test be something an inside man would do?
Or was she doing it on purpose?
Su He was hesitant to make a decision, but she did list her as a key person to observe.
As the atmosphere in the family compound grew increasingly tense, everyone proceeded with extreme caution.
Even when I go out for a walk in the evening, I encounter fewer people.
That day, Liu's son Zhuangzhuang was sick, so she stayed home to take care of him and didn't go out for a walk with Su He.
Su He was a little tired after walking around, so she rested for a while under a tree outside the cafeteria, which is why it was a bit late when she walked back.
But then, they unexpectedly encountered Old Mrs. Zhu and Daya in a secluded corner of a building.
The two seemed to be facing off, and Daya, unlike her usual cautious self, was actually glaring fiercely at Old Mrs. Zhu.
Su He found it strange, but since it was getting dark, she wasn't sure if she was seeing things.
Just as they were about to walk over for a closer look, they noticed that her gait was a little heavy because of her pregnancy. The two of them had already seen her, and when they turned around, their expressions had returned to normal.
