Xiao Yumin was furious. She rolled her eyes at Qi Yue and said, "Xiao Yue, is this such a coincidence? Are you trying to avoid the blind date tomorrow afternoon?"
Qi Yue suddenly felt helpless. He sighed deeply, "Mom, why don't you believe me? I really have to go on a business trip. If you don't believe me, you can ask my brother."
Xiao Yihan smiled and testified for Qi Yue: "Aunt, Qi Yue didn't lie to you. We are indeed going on a business trip. It won't be too late to arrange a blind date for him when he comes back."
Old Master He sat aside, smiling amiably, and earnestly admonished, "Yihan, you and Xiaoyue must take good care of yourselves when you are out there. Don't take advantage of your youth and neglect your health."
Xiao Yihan agreed with a smile.

In the evening, at the Qingshan Brigade, at the educated youth site.
Chu Jingqiu took two bottles of white wine, a pack of cigarettes, a few cans of food and a few packs of cakes and quietly came to the home of the old branch secretary Du Jianguo.
Du Jianguo was sitting on the kang table smoking a pipe, while her husband was mending shoe soles under the oil lamp next to her.
Seeing Chu Jingqiu coming in, he hurriedly asked her to sit down.
"Chu Zhiqing, please sit down. You are a rare guest! Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Chu Jingqiu nodded and said with a smile, "Secretary Du, I did come here today to talk to you about something. I have to go to the provincial capital to take care of some things in the next few days, and I would like to ask you for a few days' leave."
Du Jianguo knocked his pipe against the edge of the kang and asked with concern, "What are you going to the provincial capital for? Are you encountering any difficulties?"
Chu Jingqiu waved his hands hurriedly, "No... no, it's like this, my grandfather has an old comrade who has something to do in the provincial capital, and my grandfather can't leave, so he asked me to go check on his family in his place."
Du Jianguo smiled and said, "So it's about the old leader! Okay, I'll grant you a few days off. Don't rush back. You must help the old leader get things done."
Chu Jingqiu said happily: "Old Party Secretary, you are such a kind person, thank you!
I'd also like to trouble you to write me a letter of introduction. I don't know how many days I'll be gone, so please bear with me if it takes a long time."
Du Jianguo waved his hand and said, "Chu Zhiqing, you are the most capable person in our Zhiqing point. You have helped the township and county solve so many cases.
I'll tell everyone that you're helping with a case. Everyone knows your abilities and won't say anything, so just go ahead and do it without worry!"
He quickly prepared the letter of introduction and handed it to Chu Jingqiu.
Chu Jingqiu happily pushed the things in her hand in front of Du Jianguo, "Old Party Secretary, thank you so much!"
Du Jianguo hurriedly declined, and Chu Jingqiu pretended to be angry and said: Old Party Secretary, I have been in the educated youth site for such a long time, and you have taken good care of me.
In my heart, you are almost like my grandfather. This is a gift from the younger generation to show respect to the elders, and you must accept it."
After saying that, he pushed the things over and ran out. When Du Jianguo put on his shoes and chased out, he found that Chu Jingqiu had disappeared.
The next day, Chu Jingqiu told Shi Aihong that she was taking Jiang Jiang to the provincial capital to handle a difficult case. When she arrived in the town, someone would pick her up, so she took Jiang Jiang out of the educated youth center.
She took Jiang Jiang out of the village, and when they reached a deserted place, she quickly entered the space.
Lele was in the room carefully listening to the messages sent by Xiao Yihan.
"Le Le, you performed well and deserve praise. Where are Yi Han and the others now?" Chu Jingqiu asked hurriedly.
"Captain Xiao and Qi Yue are boarding the plane now. They are going to take a special plane to the southwest border.
Oh, by the way, they also brought a military expert. I heard from Captain Xiao that the expert's safety must be ensured."
Chu Jingqiu nodded. She thought for a moment and turned her gaze to Jiang Jiang beside her. "Jiang Jiang, our helicopter will take several hours to fly from the Northern Province to the Southwest."
Jiang Jiang thought for a moment and said, "If it were in modern times, it would take our helicopter gunship more than three hours to reach the southwest.
Because the helicopter is made in space, we can arrive in just one hour."
Chu Jingqiu nodded slightly and continued, "What I'm worried about now is whether we will be discovered by the radar system outside if we leave the space.
If we were to be suspected of being a spy plane, we would be in trouble if we were shot down."
Jiang Jiang patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry! This helicopter itself does not belong to this time and space, and no instrument in this era can detect its existence.
If I set up a barrier, people outside the space won't be able to see the helicopter, and it will be as hidden as the space itself."
Chu Jingqiu breathed a sigh of relief, her heart finally at ease. "That's good. Let's go to the rooftop to check the helicopter first. When Yi Han arrives, we'll fly over to find him."
On the rooftop, Chu Jingqiu carefully checked each component of the helicopter to make sure everything was normal.

Southwest border.
Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue led a small team of scouts and a military expert through the dense jungle.
They received orders from their superiors. Sun Yining, a Chinese scientist from Country M, broke through numerous obstacles and took the opportunity to go to Country Y for technical guidance, intending to return to the embrace of the motherland and serve the country.
However, as soon as our agent took Sun Yining across the border, he discovered that Country M had sent several agents to track them, and they had advanced several kilometers into our territory and buried a large number of new mines on the road they had to pass through.
These new types of mines are extremely powerful and pose a huge threat to our country's borders.
We sent engineers to quickly clear the mines, but because the new type of mines are not easy to detect, our troops suffered heavy casualties.
This minefield has become a major hidden danger on the border. It not only became an obstacle for Sun Yining to return to China, but also put the lives of border residents into difficulties.
In order to solve this problem, the country sent its top military expert Wang Guodong to the southwest for support. He is an expert with profound attainments in the field of blasting.
Wang Guodong brought the most advanced mine-clearing equipment and technology in the country, and together with Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue, formed a special operations team and headed to the southwest.
The task assigned to Xiao Yihan by his superiors was to clear the minefield as soon as possible, bring back the experts, and capture the agents who had sneaked into our country.
After the action team arrived at the border, they first contacted the local troops and listened to the local comrades' report on the current border situation.
“Commander, according to our survey, this minefield is approximately ten square kilometers in size, and the mines are densely distributed, making it difficult for detectors to accurately detect the specific locations of the mines.
Furthermore, we have never seen this new type of mine before. We have sent engineers to clear mines before, but the results were not ideal and the casualties were particularly high."
Xiao Yihan asked in a deep voice, "Then can't we use heavy machinery to clear mines?"
The other party shook his head and said, "No, this minefield is located in a mountainous area with steep mountains and complex terrain. There is not enough flat land for heavy machinery to operate.
Moreover, even if heavy machinery enters a minefield, it is difficult to guarantee the safety of personnel."
