Chapter 1400: This Investigation Directly Solidified Her Own Statements

The reason for such urgency in sending the items out was that her pregnant belly would become increasingly inconvenient; even if she could devise a perfect solution that raised no suspicion, carrying a pregnant belly would likely hinder the task.

She was a selfish person; even when intending to do good, she would always place her own safety first.

After all, she was no longer alone; three little ones were in her belly. Now she could only push the matter aside; even if someone suspected, they would likely find nothing. Anyway, this was a good deed; she did not believe the authorities would hold on to it.

The reason the half piece of sheepskin map was sent out together was naturally to make them shift their focus.

She had no ability and no such grand ambition; keeping that thing was a waste. It was better to let the Father State search for it; perhaps they could truly find some treasure or other wealth. By then, the Father State would no longer have to worry about the reconstruction of Tang City.

Being able to start over once and gaining such a tremendous opportunity, she had to do something. The items were sent out, so she had not come in vain. In the future, she would just live her life peacefully.

The things she had left behind in the space were enough for her to live comfortably in the future.

Just as she had thought, as soon as Fu Yan Cheng led his men away, Division Commander Guan made several phone calls, followed by an investigation even more stringent than the marriage application.

Everything else was fine; the fact that she spoke several languages was also brought to the table.

Fortunately, the original owner not only had excellent academic grades but indeed possessed a talent for languages. Teachers and classmates testified that she had privately studied a foreign language with a teacher, though no one was quite clear to what extent she had learned.

But the crux lay right there. That teacher had retired and moved south to live with his son. Whether it was her good luck or the protection of the Heavenly Dao in this realm, when the authorities sent someone to find the teacher's son's home, they discovered a funeral was being held; the old teacher had passed away from an acute illness a few days prior.

Only from the teacher's son's mouth did they learn that the old gentleman indeed knew several foreign languages, but as to the extent, he was not quite clear, because he had not inherited his father's learning; he was a soldier who had retired and stayed in the south through his father-in-law's connections.

He originally had an older sister and an older brother, but neither had grown to adulthood. Everyone said it was hard to leave one's native land, yet after retirement, the father still went to join his son, just to enjoy the days of grandchildren surrounding him. Who would have thought that barely a year after arriving, the man was gone.

Well, now the authorities had to believe it, whether they wanted to or not.

Liu Chuxue never expected that this investigation by the authorities would directly solidify her own statements.

After all, the teacher he had used as an excuse was dead; no one else knew exactly how much she had learned. The investigation report only stated she possessed an extremely strong language talent, which also provided a reasonable explanation for her speaking several foreign languages at such a young age.

When Fu Yan Cheng's vehicle was nearing that Lin Zi, Liu Chuxue pointed out the direction, since after entering the Lin Zi, there were forked paths.

One path led to that Liu Xiaoyuan, and the other led to a small road at the foot of the mountain behind; when the road was built, stones had been stepped down from the mountain.

After Fu Yan Cheng led them smoothly to the location, he said: "Scatter in all directions, surround that house completely, stay fully alert, and maintain vigilance."

They did not know the true purpose of coming here, but they also knew the confidentiality regulations; they would not speak out of turn about what they should not ask. Seeing Fu Ying's solemn and cautious attitude, they naturally dared not neglect it in the slightest.

Very quickly, that house was surrounded.

After confirming repeatedly that it was not a trap set by enemy agents, Fu Yan Cheng entrusted Liu Chuxue's safety to Ma Wuliang, the company commander who had come along to execute the mission: "Help me take care of your sister-in-law, and guard the entrance well."
