When Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue returned to the educated youth point, it was already around midnight.
Chu Jingqiu had already made the kang for them and she had gone to sleep in Shi Aihong's room.
Jiang Jiang was sleeping soundly in the doghouse. When he saw the two of them coming back, he happily wagged his tail and came over to greet them.
Xiao Yihan stroked Jiang Jiang's little head and said, "Jiang Jiang, why didn't you sleep with Xiao Qiu today? Why are you still waiting for us in the room?"
Jiang Jiang barked "woof...woof...woof" a few times, as if responding to Xiao Yihan's question.
If Chu Jingqiu was here, she would definitely understand what Jiang Jiang was saying: "Qiuqiu asked me to stay here. She asked me to protect you at night. If Qiao Rucheng comes, I will be able to find him and give you an advance warning."
Qi Yue and Xiao Yihan looked at Jiang Jiang and felt that Jiang Jiang was very human. They surrounded Jiang Jiang and caressed him for a while, feeling deeply moved.
They understood that the reason Chu Jingqiu asked Jiang Jiang to stay was for their safety. With Jiang Jiang guarding them, they could rest assured at night.
Nothing happened during the night. When Qi Yue and Xiao Yihan brought Jiang Jiang back to the educated youth site in the morning, Chu Jingqiu and the others started to make breakfast.
When Qi Yue and Xiao Yihan came yesterday, they had a few bags of flour, cornmeal, and some meat in the car. Everyone's rations were limited, and they felt embarrassed to eat and drink for free.
Because the pot for Chu Jingqiu and the others was not that big, Xiao Yihan gave some food and meat to Tang Guoqing and the others, allowing them to continue eating in the cafeteria.
Breakfast was simple. I cooked a pot of corn porridge, steamed dozens of vegetarian buns with cabbage and vermicelli, fried some hot and sour shredded potatoes and scrambled eggs with dried radish, and put some kimchi and pickled vegetables in between.
Of course, Qi Yue’s favorite sweet potatoes were also indispensable. Everyone sat around the table and enjoyed this simple and delicious breakfast.
After finishing his meal, Qi Yue took some dried sweet potatoes, and went with Xiao Yihan and Jiang Jiang to search for Qiao Rucheng.
When Chu Jingqiu, Shi Aihong and Lin Zishan were washing dishes, Du Erleng's mother came over.
As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Lin Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, are you there? My boss was sweeping the snow just now and fell off the roof. Please go over and check on him!"
Without saying a word, Lin Zishan took the medicine box and followed Du Erleng's mother out. Chu Jingqiu and Shi Aihong washed the dishes, then sat on the kang and started chatting.
Shi Aihong said worriedly, "I don't know if Jiang Jiang can help Captain Xiao and Qi Yue find Qiao Rucheng. I really hope they can find him quickly so we don't have to worry all day.
You don’t know, I have been suffering from insomnia every night these days, and even when I fall asleep I keep having dreams.
I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that Qiao Rucheng came towards me with a butcher knife. I was running in front and he was chasing me from behind. He grinned and said to us, "I will let all of you be buried with me."
In the dream, I couldn't run any further. Seeing Qiao Rucheng's butcher knife coming towards me, I woke up in shock. If I don't catch him, I'm going to go crazy.
Chu Jingqiu smiled and consoled her, "Aihong, you're too timid. We have so many people protecting us. It won't be that easy for him to enter the educated youth camp."
Shi Aihong came close to Chu Jingqiu and whispered, "Jingqiu, I'm not the only one like this. Yesterday I heard Wu Shuangshuang say that Zhao Yaru doesn't dare to sleep in the same room with herself.
Yesterday, when Wu Shuangshuang went to the bathroom, she saw Yue Wenbin sneaking into Zhao Yaru's room. The two of them are no longer avoiding each other and now sleep in the same room at night. I think she is also afraid that Qiao Rucheng will retaliate against her.
Chu Jingqiu chuckled, "I think she's a little overly anxious. She just had a quarrel with Diao Lijun that day and didn't offend Qiao Rucheng. Besides, they grew up together. I don't think Qiao Rucheng would retaliate against her!"
The two were chatting when they heard a rapid knock on the door. Chu Jingqiu and Shi Aihong looked at each other and felt nervous.
"Who is it?" Chu Jingqiu asked loudly.
"It's me, open the door!" Zhang Pingping's voice came over.
Chu Jingqiu and Shi Aihong quickly got off the kang and ran to open the door.
Zhang Pingping, wrapped in a military coat, with a slightly messy hair, stood at the door covered in sweat, looking at them anxiously.
Shi Aihong looked at Zhang Pingping and said, "Sister Pingping, you look sweaty. Did you jog here?
You're pregnant now, and your brother-in-law doesn't keep an eye on you. What if something happens? Is there something urgent going on? "
Zhang Pingping wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at Chu Jingqiu, and said hurriedly: "Jingqiu, go and take a look! Captain Xiao just took Jiang Jiang to search for Qiao Rucheng, and no one knows where Qiao Rucheng came from.
He had a gun in his hand and injured Captain Xiao. Everyone had already carried Captain Xiao into the car and were planning to send him to the health center!
Yueming asked me to come and call you, hurry up! If you go too late, you might miss the class.
When Chu Jingqiu heard this, her heart tightened and her face instantly lost its color. She asked anxiously, "Sister Pingping, where is Yihan injured? Is the injury serious?"
Zhang Pingping wiped the sweat from his forehead again. "I only took a quick look. Yueming didn't dare let me get closer. His chest was covered in blood, his face was pale, and he kept saying, 'Catch Qiao Rucheng! Catch him...' He looked seriously injured!"
Shi Aihong's face turned pale instantly after hearing this. She hurriedly grabbed Chu Jingqiu's hand and said, "Jingqiu, hurry up! Put on your military coat quickly. I'll go with you to take a look."
Chu Jingqiu felt something was amiss. She carefully examined Zhang Pingping's face and asked calmly, "Sister Pingping, what about Qiao Rucheng? Has he been apprehended? Where are Qi Yue and Jiang Jiang?"
Zhang Pingping's eyes flashed, "Qiao Rucheng ran away after firing the gun, and many people went after him.
When I arrived, I saw Jiang Jiang guarding Captain Xiao, and Qi Yue was giving Captain Xiao an emergency bandage!
Jingqiu, can you please hurry up! Captain Xiao is already injured, and you're still asking questions.
Hurry up and get dressed! You'd better pack some more clothes or something, because if you're hospitalized you'll be staying there for several days!"
Chu Jingqiu was packing up while using his consciousness to contact Jiang Jiang, "Jiang Jiang, where are you and Yi Han now? Zhang Pingping has arrived at the educated youth site.
She told me that Yi Han was injured. I suspect this Zhang Pingping is Qiao Rucheng in disguise. You guys should come back quickly."
Not long after, Jiang Jiang's voice came over, "Qiuqiu, I've noticed through the surveillance that something is wrong.
We are on our way back, you must be careful, there is an antidote for the drug in the pharmacy in the space, take one out first to prevent Qiao Rucheng from using the drug."
