An hour later, their vision suddenly brightened. It was still dark outside the forest. They looked at each other and smiled.
They finally emerged safely, and only then did Su Tian realize a problem.
"Where did you get in from?"
"We entered from the mountains over Songjia Village."
"Then how did you get here?"
"I asked my colleagues at the police station to bring it over."
"Why don't you two ride my bicycle back?"
Now it only takes ten minutes to walk to the educated youth settlement; the row of houses at the foot of the mountain belong to the educated youth settlement.
"Okay, let's go."
Lu Yu muttered to himself: So that's where the educated youth settlement in Songjia Village was. Does that mean his silly cousin was there too?
The three of them walked together toward the educated youth settlement. When they arrived, the people there were eating.
Song Zhe and Lu Yu waited at the gate of the courtyard. Su Tian took the basket from Song Zhe and went inside to push the cart.
"Hey, Su Tian, you're back so late? Do you want something to eat? I'll get you a bowl of sweet potato porridge," Lu Xiao asked with concern.
"Oh, no need, I'll cook noodles for myself when I'm hungry."
Lu Yu shook his head helplessly when he heard his cousin's voice.
Song Zhe heard it too. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, it was Lu Yu's younger brother who cared about her, so it wasn't a big deal.
Su Tian pushed the car out and handed it to him. Song Zhe held the car and said, "I'll bring the car back to you after I'm done with my work. We can talk about today's events then."
"Okay, it's getting dark, you guys go ahead, see you next time." Su Tian smiled at him.
"Okay, see you next time. You go back first, then we'll leave."
Song Zhe watched Su Tian go inside, feeling a little reluctant, but in the end he still rode his bicycle quickly towards the town.
"Old Song, slow down, slow down, my butt hurts. This road is uneven, it hurts so much to sit on it."
No matter how much Lu Yu shouted, Song Zhe continued to ride his bicycle very fast.
Half an hour later, they arrived in town.
Back at his residence, Song Zhe put the documents and maps in his room, then washed his hands and went to the kitchen.
All the state-run restaurants outside were closed, so Song Zhe went to cook noodles, while Lu Yu went to take a shower.
After Lu Yu finished washing up, the noodles were cooked.
They sat at the table, eating and chatting about the day's events. "How do you plan to report Su Zhiqing's matter to your superiors?"
Upon hearing Lu Yu's question, Song Zhe pondered for a moment and said, "I would say that a reclusive master helped me, and how he helped is a secret that he requested to be kept confidential. You can say that too."
"Okay, that's the safest way to put it. How do you think she'll help us move those dozen or so boxes of stuff back?"
"Leave this to me for now. I'll discuss it with you if any problems arise," Song Zhe said.
After finishing their meal, Song Zhe left the dishes for Lu Yu to wash while he turned around and went back to his room to get his clothes to take a shower.
