Chapter 320

~8 min read 1,491 words

In the afternoon, Director Zhou of the Foreign Trade Section called Lu Qiao to tell her that Zhen Xi and his father had arrived smoothly at the Bai He Mountain Sanatorium.

He said they have to wait two days; they are currently decocting medicine and cannot be disturbed.

Therefore, Zhen Xi and Brother Zhendong have settled down at the Bai He Mountain Sanatorium.

The relevant departments have already made arrangements inside and out.

The place where they are staying is another building.

It is not far from where Old Gu lives, but there are guards in between.

It is said that Brother Zhendong expressed great satisfaction with this arrangement.

Director Zhou talked to Lu Qiao about the crafts, and both sides confirmed that the construction period would not be delayed.

However, before hanging up the phone, he said to Lu Qiao: "When Representative Qin has time, you two come to my house. Your Aunt Chu has always wanted to see you both and have a meal together."

Director Zhou rarely invites people to his home for meals.

Lu Qiao knows what's proper and didn't decline, instead saying naturally: "When he returns, I will ask him when he has time."

Director Zhou hung up the phone happily.

Just at this time, Wei Xia arrived at the Neighborhood Office.

Seeing Lu Qiao here, she seemed to have found her backbone. Her eyes lit up, and she walked over quickly, then took out a few sheets of paper from her pocket and handed them to Lu Qiao, saying softly: "This is what I could remember these past few days. Although it's not everything, it's about the same."

Lu Qiao let Wei Xia sit down to rest, while she opened the paper and looked at it at a glance.

Seeing halfway through, Lu Qiao suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

She remembered that in this era, some spies like to ambush in our key border cities and military-industrial areas.

They collect the local geography, mineral distribution, and the distribution of airports and factories to make drawings and pass them out.

It is said that in the Great Northwest, the number of ambushed spies was the highest in the fifties and sixties.

But the city of Jiangcheng is equally important.

So it is not shocking that there are ambushed spies here.

The problem now is, how are the drawings passed out?

Lu Qiao still needs information from Little Cangcang.

These past few days, Little Cangcang hasn't gained much at Director Guo's house.

The Guo family is a very normal family.

Dual-income, two children; he goes to work and gets off work every day, sometimes buying groceries on the way.

Little Cangcang and Little Mouse and Little Mouse Two searched his house inside and out, but didn't find anything worth suspecting.

Last night, Lu Qiao simply let Little Cangcang take Little Mouse and Little Mouse Two to Director Guo's office.

I don't know if anything can be found out now.

Lu Qiao tried to call Little Cangcang in her heart.

Unexpectedly, ten seconds later, Little Cangcang flew over.

Little Cangcang's speed seems to have increased again.

【Little Master, Little Master, I was just about to come and report to you.】

It and its master really have a tacit understanding.

Lu Qiao: "What did you find?"

【Little Mouse and Little Mouse Two found a very small camera and film in Director Guo's office.】

【Little Master, I also found a notebook written with many strange numbers, with maps and some strange symbols drawn inside.】

Lu Qiao frowned slightly. Sure enough, this Director Guo has a problem.

【Little Master, there is also a box under the floor of Director Guo's office. There is something in the box, but we don't know what it is.】

Lu Qiao asked Little Cangcang in her heart: "Do you still remember what the thing in the box looks like? Describe it to me."

Little Cangcang's memory is very good.

It drilled in through the crack and then told Lu Qiao what it saw.

Lu Qiao narrowed her eyes. Why does it look a bit like a telegraph machine from this era?

If it really is a telegraph machine, Director Guo is too bold to dare to hide this thing in the office.

But thinking carefully, putting it in the office is actually safer than putting it at home.

After all, that is Director Guo's private office.

Lu Qiao was not too shocked by what Little Cangcang found.

Because everything he did was already full of oddities.

Lu Qiao asked again: "Has there been anything unusual about his mood these past few days?"

Little Cangcang thought for a moment: 【He doesn't talk to himself, but when he is alone, his face is always gloomy.】

By the way, Little Master, there is one more thing. Du Wanqing hasn't gone to see Director Guo these past few days.

Du Wanqing has been arguing with Jiang Chusheng every day because of the disciplinary matter.

Lu Qiao nodded and let Little Cangcang and the others continue to watch Director Guo.

She also let the three sparrows watch Du Wanqing's house.

The place where the gray pigeon lives is not far from Wei Xia's house.

It has been watching Wei Xia these past few days.

The gray pigeon came yesterday and said it didn't find anything strange.

Instead, that little girl Qiqi told her mother that she wants to study hard, and when she grows up, she also wants to become a person like Sister Lu Qiao and help people who need help.

Wei Xia cried at that time.

After hearing this, Lu Qiao felt happy inside too. She felt that she had set a correct example for Qiqi.

And Lu Qiao feels that if Wei Xia had such insight, she wouldn't have been tricked into divorce by Jiang Chusheng.

Lu Qiao continued to read down and finished it quickly.

Sure enough, Wei Xia accidentally stumbled upon Director Guo's secret. Although Wei Xia was unaware and hasn't discovered it until now, Director Guo was guilty and worried that Wei Xia would talk, but it wasn't easy to kill her to silence her, so he designed to have her fired. Perhaps he also felt that Wei Xia was just like that, with no roots, no foundation, no power, no influence, and no one to speak for her or make decisions for her, so firing her was just firing her, and she could only swallow this bitter pill.

There were no problems with the dismissal procedure.

Wei Xia indeed, as Director Guo expected, really swallowed this bitter pill and had no courage to live on.

Lu Qiao believes that if it weren't for Grandma Han going to find Director Hu and the Neighborhood Office intervening, Wei Xia would either be crazy or no longer here.

So Director Guo's methods are very clever.

Killing invisibly without making a sound.

Lu Qiao said to Wei Xia: "This information of yours is very important. I will take you to find Director Hu."

By the way, Lu Qiao called Sister Qiao and Officer Liu. Shao Le happened to be at the door, so she let him enter Director Hu's office together.

Closing the office door, Wei Xia was a bit uneasy. She didn't see anything unusual in this information. Was she too stupid?

Both directors of the Neighborhood Office were present.

Director Hu glanced at Lu Qiao. The little girl making such a scene must have discovered a very important situation.

Lu Qiao gave the sheets of paper Wei Xia wrote to Director Hu and Deputy Director Huang, letting them pass them around to read.

She didn't need them to ponder what was going on themselves, nor did she engage in any Q&A.

Lu Qiao pointed to the content on one of the sheets and told everyone directly: "Look here. At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Xia took a pair of leather shoes to find Director Guo. The soles of this pair of shoes look the same as others on the outside, but the height of the inner layer is different.

Wei Xia also told him that one can see from the eyelet area that the thickness of the leather on both sides is problematic, as if it had been processed a second time. Even if looking closely doesn't show much, her sense of touch is good; she can feel the thickness and dimensions. One side is 0.8, and the other side is about 0.88. Wei Xia also said this is the second pair she has discovered.

At that time, Director Guo took away the problematic shoes and said that these were defective leather shoes and the team leader must have made a mistake. An hour later, he and the team leader took away the leather shoes. At that time, he didn't say the quality was unqualified, and the acceptance procedure was the same as usual."

Everyone looked at Lu Qiao. So, what can this prove?
