Chapter 389 A narrow escape, but a storm is brewing (2/2)



Daylily: "!!!"

I feel like I've been subjected to an unprecedented shock, even though I've only recently started receiving science education!

Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"

Seeing her daughter standing there blankly, she quickly reached out and pulled her onto the bed.

"The officers who searched those files have arrived."

She lowered her voice and said, "Now close your eyes and pretend to be asleep. Leave the rest to us!"

As she spoke, Yu Mingxiang pulled the blanket over Xuancao.

Daylily: "..."

He stood there dumbfounded, letting his mother do whatever she wanted.

She even obediently closed her eyes.

The moment she closed her eyes, there was a knock on the door.

The police officers who were conducting the search came in.

It was described as a carpet search, and it truly was a carpet search.

Even knowing that this was the residence of a foreign affairs officer, the police officers did not hesitate.

They inspected the wardrobe, under the bed, and even behind the curtains and on the roof, leaving no place unchecked.

Then, the blanket covering Xuan Cao was pulled off.

Xuancao suddenly opened her eyes.

She didn't change her clothes.

I don't know if I'll get caught.

But.

The officers conducting the search were clearly not focusing on this.

Their main focus of the search is the files!

A large number of files and filing cabinets!

Not only is the area enormous, but it's also difficult to hide under a thorough search. As for whether anyone in this foreign affairs official's home is used to sleeping in clothes, they don't care at all.

Because the profession of foreign affairs officer, in a sense, is like an openly ostensibly underground worker for another country.

Their abnormality is what makes them normal.

They're too normal; that's what's abnormal.

Especially when trouble is happening in their Western Empire, it's perfectly normal for these people to be restless and even fan the flames.

soon.

The search of the villa is now complete.

The visitors did not find what they were looking for in the villa and left disappointed.

From beginning to end, they didn't even notice whose name was on the work ID that Gu Hai showed them.

After all, they were temporarily assigned to help California arrest thieves.

Even if they noticed Gu Hai's name, they didn't recognize him at all.

After a close call, the search team left, and Yu Mingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then...

Then she took out those files without hesitation.

Still in front of Xuancao.

As soon as the file was taken out, Yu Mingxiang urged, "Daughter, take a look!"

She said, "I know you have many questions in your mind, but now is really not the time to talk about them!"

"These files will be sent out of the villa first thing tomorrow morning. If you don't read them and memorize them, it will be a loss for our Xia Kingdom!"

"Look! Make sure you remember this, memorize every single word!"

Upon hearing this, Xuancao exclaimed, "!!!"

Although I had countless questions in my mind, I also knew that time was tight and the task was heavy.

so.

Faced with the choice between seeking answers and matters of national importance, she unhesitatingly chose the latter.

soon.

The sound of pages turning in the files echoed in the room once again.

at the same time.

The outside world is truly on the verge of a storm.

The entire state of California was on edge.

Amidst this atmosphere of heightened suspicion, a group of people, hidden in the darkness, silently knocked on the door of the foreign affairs officer's residence.
