The two were stunned by Lin Ye's noisy appearance.
Soon, Yu Xiangyang said dissatisfiedly: "I stole your things, but you didn't call the police. Why did you come to us?!"
Lin Ye said breathlessly, "My dad said he wants you to go to his house and help him chase the man."
Yu Xiangyang refused outright, "No!" They didn't want to get involved in the Song family's affairs!
Lin Ye added, "My father suspects he has had contact with enemy spies and has reported it to the Investigation Department. He's waiting for the comrades from the Investigation Department at home and asked me to come and invite you."
Upon hearing that Song Shaochun had contact with enemy spies, Yu Xiangyang and Cheng Jingmo immediately became alert. They looked at each other and stood up at the same time.
Lin was pushed and dragged out of the room by Yu Xiangyang. Before leaving the room, Cheng Jingmo told Xiaojie to go to sleep alone and to find the front desk if he had any problems.
The two of them quickly ran down the stairs, ignoring Lin Ye calling them from behind.
Yu Xiangyang was riding a bicycle with Cheng Jingmo on his back, and his pedals were almost smoking.
A black car quickly caught up. Lin Ye just stuck his head out of the passenger window, but before he could say anything, Yu Xiangyang got there first.
"Why didn't you tell us you had a car? And you made us ride bicycles?!"
Lin Ye: "I told you! Who told you to run so fast? Didn't you hear me?"
Yu Xiangyang slammed on the brakes to stop the bike, and he and Cheng Jingmo jumped off the bike at the same time.
As soon as the car stopped, Yu Xiangyang opened the passenger door and urged Lin to get out. "We're in a hurry. Go ride your bike."
Lin also got out of the car obediently, rode his bicycle, and chased the car in front.
When Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang arrived at the Song family, comrades from the investigation department were already at home and were interrogating Min Qingqing.
Min Qingqing cried and said that she didn't know where Song Shaochun had gone, nor did she know that Song Shaochun had any contact with enemy spies.
During this period, Song Shaochun has been hospitalized.
Because the injury was not serious, Min Qingqing only stayed in the hospital during the day and went home at night.
This morning, she came to the hospital and found that Song Shaochun was missing.
She didn't think much about it, thinking that he had gone out for something, but she didn't see him for the whole day.
When Lin Yunyi got home from get off work, she found that the receipts she had locked in the cabinet were missing. These receipts were receipts for deposits in foreign banks.
Song Huaiqian also discovered that the two documents he had locked in the study were missing. These two documents were related to the research and development of the Northwest Base and were confidential documents.
Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang checked the study and bedroom, and found the locks were intact, with no signs of prying.
It seems that Song Shaochun is an expert at lock picking. No wonder he managed to sneak the information into Cheng Jingmo's box without leaving any trace.
The comrades who went to the hospital to investigate learned from the nurse on duty that Song Shaochun would leave the ward at 7 o'clock every afternoon in the past few days and go to the garden to get some fresh air.
Someone saw that Song Shaochun had contact with a slightly older man, and each time lasted three to five minutes.
All signs indicate that Song Shaochun absconded with money and confidential documents.
Min Qingqing was so angry that she cursed, "I overheard my parents' conversation and told Song Shaochun. Who knew he would steal these things and abandon us mother and daughter!"
Song Huaiqian and Qi Xuefeng, the head of the investigation department, went to the study to discuss.
Ten minutes later, the two came out.
Song Huaiqian walked up to Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang and said, "Cheng Jingmo, Yu Xiangyang, we'd like to trouble you with this matter. Please come with us to arrest Song Shaochun."
Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang were willing to do this, but with comrades from the Investigation Department present, it seemed like they were overstepping their authority by doing this.
Song Huaiqian saw their concerns and said, "I have discussed it with Minister Qi. He will bring one of his men, and the five of us will go together."
The two of them didn't hesitate any longer and set off immediately.
It was unknown how long it would take for him to return from this trip, so before leaving, Cheng Jingmo asked Lin Yunyi to go to the guesthouse to pick up Xiaojie and bring him to the Song family to take care of him for a few days.
He also asked Lin to tell Yu Xiangnian that he was going on a mission and would go to the school to find her as soon as he came back.
As expected, Song Shaochun had only one escape route.
He took the document and still had the jade pendant in his hand. His final destination must be abroad, so he had to pass through Hong Kong and take a boat from Hong Kong to go abroad.
At that time, the ports were not open yet, so he could only go to Hong Kong by sneaking in from the Guangcheng Port, which was the closest to Hong Kong.
They have to catch him in Guangzhou at the latest. Once he arrives in Hong Kong, it will not be easy to catch him.
Song Shaochun went home during the day today to steal receipts and documents. In total, he left seven or eight hours earlier than them.
Song Shaochun was anxious to leave the mainland, so he must have been traveling non-stop. It would be a bit difficult for them to catch up with him.
The most convenient way to get from Beijing to Guangzhou is by train, but it takes more than 30 hours.
Everyone bought tickets for the nearest train and caught up.
Song Shaochun sat on the train, holding a small box tightly in his arms, vigilantly observing the situation around him.
Sitting next to him was a man in his forties, wearing a gray Mao suit, a hat and a pair of sunglasses.
The man's eyes could not be seen. He looked as if he was asleep. Only his mouth moved. "Don't look at me. You will arouse suspicion if you look like this."
Song Shaochun lowered his voice and said, "They should have noticed that the things are missing by now, and they may have caught up with us!"
The man still looked the same. "I never understood why you had to go abroad when you could live such a good life."
"Don't worry about it." He always answered like this every time the man asked him, but this time he added, "I gave you so much information, you will be discovered sooner or later. The sooner you leave, the safer it will be."
The man snorted softly, "Your intelligence is sometimes true and sometimes false. It's all useless."
Song Shaochun said: "What I gave you is real, it's just that you don't have the ability to develop it."
The man said, "I want the design of equipment parts. Don't try to trick me with anything else."
"Don't worry." Song Shaochun said, "As soon as I get to Hong Kong, I'll give you the information."
When the two arrived in Guangcheng, it was around six in the morning, and they met with the contact person in Guangcheng without stopping.
The contact person has already contacted the boat, but it is almost dawn now and smuggling will be easily discovered, so we can only wait until tonight.
At this time, Cheng Jingmo and his group were still on the train, anxiously waiting for the train to arrive at the station.
Cheng Jingmo and Song Huaiqian have always been quiet and never take the initiative to bring up topics. Yu Xiangyang was not familiar with them and did not take the initiative to speak either.
The five people sat facing each other, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
In order to liven up the atmosphere, Qi Xuefeng started joking with everyone.
"Hey, Old Song, the more I look at Xiao Cheng, the more I feel that he looks like you when you were young. Could this be a mistake you made when you were young?"
Song Huaiqian was silent for a long time before he spoke, "Cheng Jingmo is my son."
Qi Xuefeng naturally took it as a joke, "You're quite good at picking up on people! I don't usually hear you joking around. Did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Song Huaiqian said seriously, "I'm not kidding, I haven't told you about this yet."
The atmosphere was tense.
