When Ling Lang arrived, the base's search team was conducting a rigorous search of every floor. Someone guarding the building's entrance saw him and stepped forward to stop him: "Captain, this is a routine inspection."
He raised his arm nonchalantly: "Check it out."
Several soldiers checked him out, then turned aside and said, "Captain, please."
Ling Lang asked: "What did you find out?"
"Not yet, but... they say the spy has been arrested and is in the presiding judge's office. We're investigating whether there are any accomplices of the spy. We're investigating them one by one to make sure there's no second spy who has sneaked in."
"The presiding judge's office?" Ling Lang asked, "And then?"
"The presiding judge should be conducting an interrogation right now. It won't be long before the spy confesses."
He sneered.
spy?
He's clearly an idiot who ran away in panic.
After understanding the whole story, he really felt that Pei Xiqing was brave enough and smart enough to even figure out how to use the control panel at the base.
Ling Lang took the elevator upstairs.
As soon as he entered, he saw that the office door was tightly closed. He raised his hand to push it open, but the movement paused in mid-air.
Stopped.
He leaned against the wall.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, but he scratched his hair in annoyance, looking annoyed and depressed.
If it were anyone else, he would just barge in and take the person away, because the person inside was the one he respected the most.
Ling Lang sighed, the irritability in his heart became more and more obvious, and his face became gloomy.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
Duan Xiaolin adjusted his cuffs and glanced at him, "Are you here?"
Ling Lang stood up straight. "Well, brother, you won't really interrogate her, will you? I can testify for her that she is not a spy. She just... took the wrong path."
The man said calmly, "I know."
"Then it's 僱."
"I've already arranged for someone to delete her facial record."
"I just went to see Sister Long Yan and asked her to clear the records."
"Well, come find me later. I have a task for you."
"Where is she?"
As Ling Lang spoke, he couldn't help but notice the glaring kiss mark on his brother's Adam's apple. It flashed by and was covered by his tied collar.
He didn't even hear clearly what his brother said afterwards, his mind was in a mess, until someone stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him, and then he came to his senses.
Pei Xiqing held Xiaobai's hand, his eyes full of confusion, "What are you daydreaming about?"
Ling Lang recovered and looked at the woman in front of him, her face flushed as she petted the dog. He put the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth and laughed, "Ha, what's the matter? I'm just not happy with you."
"Really?" She said, "I heard everything you said to Brother Duan just now."
Speaking of this, she lowered her eyes, a little embarrassed.
What happened in the office just now was really... She almost got herself into trouble. Fortunately, she acted coquettishly and diverted the man's attention, making him deal with those who wanted to arrest her as a spy first. After coaxing her for a long time, she finally made him reluctantly compromise and let her go temporarily.
Ling Lang paused, "...troublemaker."
Pei Xiqing patted the dog's head and said, "When will you change your habit of saying one thing and thinking another?"
"Who is saying one thing and thinking another?"
"you."
"No, I didn't." He said, "If it weren't for my brother, I wouldn't care about you."
Pei Xiqing smiled softly.
Ling Lang is a stubborn person, but he has a good heart.
Although she didn't know why Duan Xiaolin cared about her feelings for him, in her opinion, she and Ling Lang were just good friends. She just wanted to get along with Ling Lang like ordinary friends, and there was no need to create a gap between them because of messy reasons.
How she treated him before is how she treats him now.
Besides, Ling Lang hasn't said anything yet. Maybe he is just helping out for Duan Xiaolin's sake. If she doesn't appreciate it and show any displeasure first, then what kind of heartless person is she?
"Xiaobai seems to like you too. Do you want to pet it? Didn't you say you would help me walk the dog?"
Ling Lang hesitated for a few seconds before squatting down, reaching out his hand and trying to touch Xiaobai.
Xiaobai took the initiative to rub against him.
Ling Lang froze for half a second, then stroked its fur, "Yeah, I get it."
"I'm sorry to have made you come here for nothing."
"I don't want to argue with you."
"Yes, yes, yes." Pei Xiqing deliberately bumped his shoulder against him, "Captain Ling Lang is very generous and won't bother with me."
Ling Lang was startled by her touch and stood up suddenly, "You, you! Don't touch me."
"What's wrong? Are you hurt... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." She was at a loss.
Ling Lang looked at her eyebrows and eyes, his face suddenly turned pale, and he turned around and left in a hurry, looking a little embarrassed.
Pei Xiqing's face was full of confusion.
Are you injured or not?
Ling Lang walked halfway and turned back: "...What did my brother say just now?"
Pei Xiqing pointed upstairs blankly. "I think they told you to go upstairs because there's a case for you to take charge of, and then told you to gather all your teammates... didn't you hear?"
Ling Lang turned his head away: "It's all your fault, dog. It keeps barking. Starting tomorrow, I will personally take it out for military training every day."
Pei Xiqing looked down at Xiaobai.
Xiaobai seemed to understand and lay down in grievance.
She laughed: "Finally you have a way to get rid of your energy."
Ling Lang asked: "What about you? Do you need me to take you back?"
"No need," she said. "I'm staying here. I'm still a spy after all."
Although this charge was a bit far-fetched, it did seem plausible. Who would have thought that she could actually control the control console at the base?
Even she herself didn't expect it.
"There's no need to accuse me of anything. You can leave anytime you want."
"No, go ahead and do your work."
In fact, part of the reason was that Duan Xiaolin had specifically "reminded" him about that before he left.
"Wait until I'm done with this."
It was clear that he wanted to come in person.
Go home with her.
As for the rest, she didn't dare to think too deeply about it.
