Men and women eating in the courtyard

Seeing Lao Zhang with a stiff expression, Li Xuewu laughed, nodded at Yang Dahai's name and said: "This is my brother, his real name. He lives in my house, otherwise he wouldn't be able to receive the letter. I don't have time." I am wealthy and it is inconvenient to receive mail, so I can only entrust my brother to help me receive mail."

Lao Zhang obviously did not fully believe it, but the only way to communicate was through letters. The phone was inconvenient, and the letters could not be received if they were not real people or relatives, so some people believed him.

Li Xuewu continued: "There is no other meaning. It's just that we can't explain this matter too clearly. We can only communicate in private. There is a risk of leaking letters, so we can only make this decision. Of course, it depends on you. If you don't want to, just think that this is me telling you a story, just chatting."

Lao Zhang was blocked by Li Xuewu, so he nodded and said: "Yes, no problem. You can also write here. It is convenient for us to mail it in the name of Li Dachun."

When Li Xuewu saw Lao Zhang saying this, he knew that he had been persuaded by him. If it wasn't for the fact that he had no choice, he really didn't want to cause this trouble.

Nowadays, you need a letter of introduction to travel, so I can only take advantage of the escort opportunity to work as a porter.

Each time the escort stopped for a short time, it was only because the second uncle and his wife were trying their best to help, and also because of the shortage of supplies in winter, that the big white pears were taken out. It is impossible to trouble the second uncle next time, because it is too dangerous.

Although the address of the second child was exposed, but across the missing person, I found a guy and a half who picked up excrement. So what if I find it? Ah, who knows who wrote it? It’s nothing to play with. Well, is it wrong to just say a few words about what you want to eat and what you have eaten?

There is no way to find out how Li Xuewu transported the materials, or to determine what mistakes Li Xuewu made.

Li Xuewu had to go back and make the follow-up arrangements. He had to decide on the channels first. As long as he had done the transaction once, Lao Zhang would feel at ease.

Later, he will help cover it up with all his heart.

Li Xuewu set the contact information with Lao Zhang and went out, followed by Da Qiangzi.

Li Xuewu walked to the door and saw Sha Chun'er listening with squinted ears. He smiled and patted Sha Chun'er on the shoulder and left.

After leaving the market, I rode my bicycle to the Qiyi Factory. When I arrived at the factory, it was just in time for dinner. I met two colleagues from the security department to have dinner and then returned to the dormitory to rest together.

This day was really busy. As soon as I lay down with a cigarette in my mouth, before I fell asleep, the cadres from the factory security office knocked on the door and came in.

"Who is Section Chief Li Xuewu?"

"I am" Li Xuewu responded as he sat up.

The security officer said to Li Xuewu anxiously: "Chief Li, please clean up and come with me now."

Li Xuewu looked at the expressions of the security cadres. He didn't know what was going on, but he still put on his clothes and carried his satchel on his back to get the spear. The spear he handed over to the security department of the No. 71 Factory last night was brought back after dinner in the evening. , because they set off tonight.

"You don't need to take the long gun. My colleague and two of your colleagues will set off with your gun later. Let's go first. I will explain to you on the way."

Li Xuewu could see that the security cadre was anxious, so he handed the duty log to the ignorant Wang Yimin, put on his hat and followed the security cadre out the door.

The security cadre walked and said: "It was the accident you encountered on the road. I don't know the details, but the relevant departments and the local public security department contacted us and asked us to find you to assist in the investigation."

Li Xuewu walked down the stairs in a few steps and followed the security cadres into the jeep waiting at the door.

"Captain Liu and the driver were stopped there on their way back, and now it's up to you."

"Shall I go there by train?"

"Yes, the nearest train has been arranged. Someone will pick you up when you arrive. If it is processed quickly, you can still catch up with the return freight. The freight will go to Steel City to load another set of carriages before heading back. , you have enough time to deal with things”

Li Xuewu nodded. The security cadre made it very clear. What should be said has been said, and what should not be asked should not be asked.

The jeep sped along, entered the station, and went directly onto the platform.

The train was already waiting, and all the doors had been closed. Only the door of one carriage was still open. The conductor standing by the door saw the jeep coming up and hurriedly gestured this way.

The security cadre did not follow him after he got off the car. Instead, Li Xuewu ran to the conductor's side.

"Comrade, get on the train first, the train is already 4 minutes late."

Li Xuewu did not stop, but jumped into the car. The conductor and the conductor standing inside the car cooperated to close the door, and the train started.

"Comrade, come with me," he said, taking Li Xuewu to Car No. 17.

Car No. 17 is a hard-sleeper car with a white curtain in the middle, half of which are passengers and half of which are cabin crew.

After entering the crew section, the conductor pointed to a lower bunk and said: "Comrade, please stay on my bed. I'll call you when you get there."

"Thank you very much, sorry for causing trouble to you"

"You're welcome, you can rest." After saying that, he went out.

The train conductor didn't know who the inspector was, but the No. 71 Factory coordinated with the bureau to force him in. He was also notified that he would have to wait later, so he could only make arrangements and didn't dare to ask.

This bed is for two people. There are two commanders, one working the day shift and one working the night shift. They sleep upside down on this bed. Now that it has been given to Li Xuewu, the commander who works the shift has to find another place to rest.

Li Xuewu thought about the accident. It was nothing unusual. Seeing that the flight attendants around him were getting ready to sleep, he stopped thinking about it and quickly lay down to sleep.

I slept until about 1 a.m., followed the train conductor to the dining car for a bite to eat, and then stood in the aisle waiting.

I slept for a while, but now it would be a bit out of sight to occupy the bunk and prevent the commander from sleeping.

The train stopped at the station where the baby was handed over last time. Li Xuewu thanked the conductor and got off the train.

It was extremely cold at the station in the early morning. Passengers squeezed out of the car in twos and threes and headed for the exit.

There was already a jeep waiting on the platform.

Seeing Li Xuewu walking towards the jeep facing the headlights, and Li Xuewu wearing a police uniform, the co-pilot of the jeep got out of a young man wearing a Chinese tunic suit.

"Is it Comrade Li Xuewu?"

"it's me"

"Hello, I am the director of the Foreign Affairs Department. My surname is Liang. Let's get in the car."

Li Xuewu shook hands with Director Liang, opened the back door and got in the car, and drove all the way to the city in the jeep.

The road in the small city was not easy to walk on and was a bit bumpy, but the speed did not slow down. We entered the main road and turned to park in front of a hotel.

There were several cars parked in front of the hotel, and a policeman stood smoking at the door.

Li Xuewu frowned and followed Director Liang out of the car and walked into the hotel.

The standard of the hotel is not high, but it looks very old, with three floors and a gray Soviet-style building.

Li Xuewu followed the man to the third floor and entered a larger room.

There are chairs, sofas, a desk inside the room, and a bed in the back room.

Obviously this is a suite, the style is imitating the Soviet style.

When Li Xuewu came in, there were several groups of people standing or sitting in different areas of the room.

Two foreigners were sitting on the sofa with their backs to the door.

A middle-aged couple sat on the chairs opposite the sofa. The man looked sad and angry, while the woman wearing a square scarf was covering her face and crying.

There was also a young man and woman sitting nearby indifferently.

Sitting over the desk were two cadres in their forties, one wearing a Chinese tunic suit and the other wearing a police uniform.

Liu Guoyou and Han Dache, whom they had met before, were sitting on the chairs opposite the desk. Standing by the wall were several young people dressed the same as Director Liang.

Seeing Director Liang leading Li Xuewu in, everyone in the room looked at Li Xuewu.

When Liu Guoyou and Han Dache looked back at Li Xuewu, their eyes were panicked and they hesitated to speak.

Officer Liang said something in the ear of the cadre in tunic suit, and then retreated to the wall, leaving Li Xuewu standing at the door looking blankly into the room.
