Chapter 170: Maybe there is also a mermaid!

~8 min read 1,458 words

Lu Qiaoge followed the same method and pulled up both iron boxes.

However, she was also soaked through.

At this time in summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and Lu Qiaoge opened the iron boxes at a very fast speed.

In the pitch-black night, even if the gold in the iron boxes was soaked and dimmed in luster, it was still gold.

The boxes were full of gold bars or gold bricks, and the other box was full of porcelain. Lu Qiaoge touched it lightly with her hand; it definitely wasn't a bowl or plate for eating, it should all be precious cultural relics.

Fortunately, Lu Qiaoge thought of this in advance, and the canvas bag not only contained rope but also a few towels and an old bedsheet.

The box wasn't very big, and luckily it only contained one vase and two pieces of porcelain that looked like a pair of saucers.

Lu Qiaoge didn't have time to look carefully, carefully packed the porcelain vase and placed it aside, as for the gold, it was much easier to pack.

The big dogfish said: 【Those scattered gold jewelry were put in a stone hole at the bottom of the lake by me and the old turtle.】

The old turtle praised: 【Little Fairy, your strength is really great.】

The big carp was not willing to fall behind: 【Little Fairy, you can hold your breath underwater for such a long time, worthy of being a fairy!】

The big grass carp didn't know what to praise, thought for a while and said regretfully: 【If I had legs, I would definitely be able to help Little Fairy carry the things back.】

Lu Qiaoge held back her laughter, just like receiving guests, touching the heads of the fish and turtles gathered by the water one by one.

Afterward, Lu Qiaoge threw the iron boxes back to the bottom of the water, and for the sake of insurance, pressed them into the mud and sand with stones from the bottom of the lake.

Afterward, Lu Qiaoge carried these things and left the lakeside quickly.

The lakeside, which was already quiet, remained quiet.

Especially this area, it looked gloomy at night, and naturally, the patrol team rarely came here.

Most of the time, they just shone a large light on it.

When the large light shone over, only the waves were gently lapping the shore.

Little Li stood in the guard tower, looking at the pitch-black night, and said to his companion Little Peng: "It seems like it's going to rain heavily."

Little Peng looked at the night, didn't answer his words, but stared tightly at the pitch-black water surface.

Little Li asked in surprise: "What are you looking at?"

Little Peng said after a long while: "I can't say, I just feel like there's something under the water."

Little Li laughed: "There must be something under the water. We can't even go down to the deepest place. There might be big, big fish there."

Little Peng thought about it and felt that what Little Li said made sense.

It might also be that it was going to rain, so it wasn't calm under the water.

After Qin Hengzhi sent Lu Qiaoge home, he drove back to the Military Representative Office.

The lights in the Military Representative Office remained on until ten minutes past one in the morning.

When the lights went out, Secretary Secretary Xiao Su yawned and went back to sleep.

Qin Hengzhi stood by the window.

Ding Jianshe had a child in the mining area, and now that child was often beaten, so someone who saw injustice came to call the Street Office?

It was so coincidental that Qiao Ge answered it.

Qin Hengzhi looked at the pitch-black night and looked in the direction of Red Star Lake not far away.

Suddenly, a feeling that couldn't be described or understood came from his heart.

He put on his clothes, walked out of the dormitory, and said to Secretary Xiao Su: "I'm going out for a while. You call the general switchboard, control the recent phone calls, and don't allow irrelevant personnel to inquire about matters unrelated to the factory. In addition, notify the mining area security department tomorrow morning to carry out a bottom-up investigation of the mining area and handle problems early."

After a pause, he continued: "After notifying, go to sleep, don't wait for me."

Secretary Xiao Su readily agreed.

Watching Representative Qin's back disappear at the end of the corridor, he also hurriedly went to make a call.

Qin Hengzhi traveled rapidly on the road to Red Star Lake like a cheetah.

Very quickly, Qin Hengzhi arrived at the lakeside; not far away was the guard tower of the Military Representative Office.

Along the lakeside, Qin Hengzhi walked unhurriedly.

Suddenly, he smelled a faint fragrance in the air that he could only smell when he was with Qiao Ge.

He didn't know what kind of snow cream Qiao Ge used, but now the smell of snow cream was easy to distinguish.

It's just that Qiao Ge's aura was her own unique one.

Fresh, elegant, and fascinating, yet it could be cold like the wind, making people unable to figure it out.

That was a feeling that was hard to describe.

Qin Hengzhi, living until now, was also the first time he had come into contact with a girl like Qiao Ge.

Actually, they only hold hands until now.

It was still at a moment of necessity.

For example, that time dancing.

For example, she saved Ding Jianshe, and he checked if she was injured...

Actually, the time from their first acquaintance to getting along was very short. For someone like him, no one could walk into his heart so easily.

However, Lu Qiaoge did it.

Qin Hengzhi sighed lightly.

They seemed to be two people walking in opposite directions. His goal was clear and direct, but Qiao Ge... seemed to still want to enjoy the scenery along the way and chat with passersby. In short, her goal was not him.

Qin Hengzhi smelled the fragrance unique to Lu Qiaoge remaining in the air.

He slowly hooked the corners of his mouth.

At one o'clock in the morning, what did his little partner come to Red Star Lake to do?

He wandered by the lake until that fragrance disappeared.

Qin Hengzhi didn't turn on his flashlight. Tonight there was no moon and even fewer stars, only the pitch-black night sky and the pitch-black water surface.

Even if his eyesight was good, he couldn't see anything unusual by the lake.

After a while, Qin Hengzhi went to the nearest guard tower.

Little Li never expected the military representative to come, and it was at this time.

They all stood at attention to accept the surprise inspection.

Qin Hengzhi stood at the lookout and asked Little Li: "Is there anything unusual?"

Little Li answered loudly: "Report to Representative Qin, currently there is none." Then he added: "But I feel it might rain in a while."

Qin Hengzhi nodded slightly and asked Little Peng: "What about you?"

Little Peng answered as loudly as Little Li: "Report to Representative Qin, currently there is no abnormality, but just now it seemed like there were a few very large fish swimming around under the water."

Qin Hengzhi stagnated for a moment.

Not only big fish, maybe there is also a mermaid!

These two soldiers of his were okay.

Qin Hengzhi didn't deliberately praise them, just patted the two on the shoulders, faintly urged them to continue monitoring, and then Qin Hengzhi left the guard tower and walked rapidly toward the Military Representative Office in the ink-colored night.

At this time, Lu Qiaoge had no sleepiness. She took off her wet clothes, wrapped her hair with a towel, and couldn't wash her hair in the middle of the night, so she could only get up early to tidy up.

Carefully took out the porcelain vase, not living alone, naturally didn't dare to turn on the light, in case it was discovered and couldn't be explained.

Lu Qiaoge had a large wardrobe and a desk in her room. Because it was a bungalow and she had to heat it herself in winter, there was not a bed in the room but a small kang.

The only places in the room to put things were the large wardrobe and the desk.

Lu Qiaoge still wrapped all the porcelain vases with towels and put them in the cabinet under the desk.

Tomorrow, she would still buy a lock to prevent Meng Xia from coming in to tidy up the room and discovering it.

At that time, she would just find an excuse. ===== CHAPTER 171 =====
