Spy Family

Mei Wangzhen fell asleep. Lu Linbei sat for a while, then got up and paced back and forth slowly in the room.

I don't know how much time passed, but the door opened and it was Chen Manchi and Lu Yezhou who came in.

Lu Yezhou whispered: "I didn't know Sister Zhen was here before. She was brought here by others."

When Mei Wangzhen heard the sound, he immediately sat up, rubbed his eyes, and said in surprise: "You two were also arrested? I understand slowly, Ye Zi, what did you do?"

"Sister Zhen, you mean that I won't do anything inappropriate?"

"No one takes your word for it, but you are the most honest one."

"Eh? Sister Zhen, it turns out that this is who I am in your mind." Lu Yezhou looked a little angry.

Mei Wangzhen smiled and said: "I apologize to you if I am wrong. But being honest and obedient is your advantage. If I have a particularly important task, I will definitely leave it to you, not Lao Bei. He has too many ideas. Could ruin the whole plan."

Lu Yezhou scratched his head and said, "Okay, just think that the real sister is praising me. You are right, I didn't do anything, I obeyed the orders honestly, and my third uncle asked me to send you away."

"Leave? Where to go?" Mei Wangzhen immediately became alert.

"You can go wherever you want. You two are free. Restore your original positions. Sister Zhen is still my boss, and Lao Bei is still the military liaison officer. Oh, by the way, Lao Bei, before you leave, you have to go Meet Commander Huang."

Lu Linbei and Mei Wangzhen were both stunned. After a while, Lu Linbei said, "Have you seen your third uncle?"

"Yes, that's what happened just now. Sister Manchuan was also here. Third uncle came into the room and said to us, 'Go and release them two.' I asked, 'Do they mean Lao Bei and Sister Zhen?' Third uncle said 'Idiot' and left."

Chen Manchi nodded repeatedly.

"So it's your own understanding to reinstate the original position?" Lu Linbei asked.

"Of course not. Just after the third uncle left, Staff Officer Huang and the director contacted me one after another and entrusted me to inform you two to resume your original duties."

Chen slowly continued to nod.

"Where's Guihai?" Lu Linbei asked again.

"I don't have any more information. It's the same information as at the beginning. The real sister has a higher position than me and is qualified to have access to more information."

Mei Wangzhen strode out, and Lu Yezhou and Chen Manchi made way for her at the same time.

"Sister Zhen is very impatient." Lu Yezhou whispered and hurriedly followed.

Lu Linbei smiled at his wife, "It seems to be going more smoothly than expected."

"Yes, Uncle San is really nice."

"Well, we can go home."

"Go home and go to the store. It's more like home there. I don't know if it's damaged or not. Alas, all business has been delayed."

Lu Linbei knew that the trouble would not disappear so easily, but he didn't want to show it in front of his wife, so he pretended to be relieved and walked out holding Chen Manchi's hand.

In the elevator, the two were sent directly to the third floor. In Room 5, Huang Pingchu was waiting for the military liaison officer, while Chen Manchi was taken away by people from the Military Intelligence Office who wanted to change her back to her original identity. chip.

Huang Pingchu temporarily borrowed an office. Many of the original owner's things were piled on the floor against the wall before they could be packed away.

"Please sit down." Huang Pingchu stood up and shook hands with Lu Linbei instead of giving a military salute.

"I want to apologize to Staff Huang first."

"What are you apologizing for?"

"I didn't show up or answer the phone for several days in a row. It was a serious dereliction of duty both as a soldier and as a liaison officer."

"Oh, this matter. Yes, this behavior is indeed a dereliction of duty, but in view of the special circumstances at the time, the military decided not to hold you responsible."

"Thank you." Lu Linbei wondered why Zhai Wangxing's military was so magnanimous to him.

"Let bygones be bygones and look to the future, haha." Huang Pingchu laughed a few times and soon became serious again, "Go back and rest first. From tomorrow on, you will come here to work and there is no need to contact the Military Intelligence Agency. The military may take action against you. There are other arrangements.”

"yes."

"Please stay in touch. This is very important to me and the military."

"yes."

Huang Pingchu seemed to have a lot more to say, but finally stood up and stretched out his hand, "That's it, welcome Major Lu back."

Lu Linbei shook hands and said goodbye, knowing that the other party would not say anything, so he didn't ask anything.

Chen Manchi was waiting outside and brought out Lu Linbei's chip.

"We are Chen Manchi and Lu Linbei again. I miss 'Zhuo Hailing' a little bit. What is your name?"

"Already forgotten." Lu Linbei smiled.

Paradise City dispatched a large number of robots to clean up the streets. Burnt vehicle wreckage and building debris were removed, but traffic has not returned to smooth flow. Two-wheeled vehicles are still the most useful means of transportation, and many people ride them among the robots. The purpose is to see relatives as soon as possible.

Although the Internet is now normal, everyone still needs to meet in person before they can feel at ease.

Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi walked out of a street, rented a free two-wheeler, and returned to the store as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the store was intact. Less than twenty meters away, a store was hit by a falling plane. It exploded first, then burned. It was already in ruins, and the stores on both sides were also affected.

Chen slowly went into the store to check it out and said, "Looking at what other people have experienced, I have nothing to complain about."

Business couldn't be done, and no shops outside were open. Chen Manchi used some of the food left in the refrigerator to make a dinner for the two of them.

"What does the news say?" Chen Manchi doesn't like surfing the Internet and always asks her husband.

"Not much has changed. Many expeditionary force 'players' have been arrested on major planets. Several insurance companies are preparing to file claims against all 'players'. Guihai still has no public information, and Jiazi Star refuses to respond to all questions."

"Where are the homeless people?"

"The news rarely mentioned it, only that there were heavy casualties, but there were no specific figures."

"Nobody cares about homeless people, but you can't blame anyone, not even homeless people for caring about themselves."

“The people at the station care.”

"It can only provide a little food, so it doesn't help much. You often talk about 'The Origin', are the homeless also part of the Origin?"

"Well, around the origin, there are various types of characters. The greater the number of humans and the better the quality of life, the more evenly distributed they tend to be. There are progressive people and negative people."

"There are also wanderers in the Earth Age?"

"Since the beginning of human civilization, there have been wanderers, but their names have been different in different eras."

There was a knock on the door outside. Chen slowly went to open the door and was surprised to see Mei Wangzhen and Lu Yezhou.

"Sister Manchuan, do you have time to tell my fortune? I really need this now."

Chen Manchi didn't react quickly, but this time he immediately understood the other party's intention. He turned around and looked at her husband and said, "Okay, I'll find a place..."

Mei Wangzhen said: "You stay here, Lao Bei, can you accompany me for a walk?"

"Yes." Lu Linbei stood up and walked over, whispering to his wife: "I'll be back soon."

Mei Wangzhen's fatigue has disappeared, and he seems to have had a good rest.

The streets have been almost cleared away, with some garbage left, which does not affect traffic. After the initial excitement, the residents hid back home, and it was deserted outside.

For some reason, Paradise City sent out a large number of drone street lights, illuminating the streets with few pedestrians very brightly.

The two walked towards the beach, and Mei Wangzhen said: "The trouble is still not over."

"I guess that's the case, there's still no definite news about Gui Hai?"

"There are more and more signs that he was deleted, but there's just no way to prove it."

“If you delete it too cleanly, it becomes a problem.”

"Yes, just like the Longitude and Latitude, there is no evidence so far that they were really wiped out."

The Jingwei was not destroyed. This was one of Lu Linbei's secrets. He decided to keep it secret, "It seems like this will be my trouble."

"And it's big trouble."

"But I didn't do it."

"I believe you. Now I need evidence that can convince outsiders."

"Have you met Third Uncle?"

"No, but talk to him."

"How did he say?"

"This is another trouble. The third uncle didn't give me any explanation. He just communicated with me about work issues. The third uncle once had contacts with Nong Xingwen and Guihai. This is a fact. He himself does not deny it. Now The question is: Did the third uncle at that time sincerely seek refuge with the aliens, or did he sacrifice himself to lure the enemy into taking the bait? Has the third uncle now finally returned to his true colors, or is he just pretending to be because Guihai was deleted?"

"Do you want to continue the investigation?"

"Why not? Third uncle's position is too important. He cannot be dismissed casually, nor can he be left alone. Which party he is loyal to is crucial."

"On your own, you may never find out the truth."

"I got some support."

"Um?"

"The superiors also have doubts about Third Uncle, so they agreed to let me investigate."

"The boss?"

"I can't go into too much detail, but this time I'm not alone."

"What are your plans, Sister Zhen?"

"The first thing is to find Nong Xingwen. The true identity of the third uncle and the whereabouts of Guihai are all related to him. Many people are looking for him, and we have to be the first to do so."

"we?"

"I'm not here to report the situation to you, but to invite you to join the investigation team."

Lu Linbei remained silent. The two of them walked onto the seawall, looking at the brightly lit but empty sea. Mei Wangzhen said, "At least help me find Nong Xingwen. He is closely related to your troubles."

"I am willing to join until the truth about Third Uncle is found out."

Mei Wangzhen smiled and was about to speak when Lu Linbei said again: "But I have a condition."

"Never enter the Internet?"

"Yes, and you have to ensure that other departments will not force me to enter the network."

"You imagine that I am too capable. Although I have support from above, it is not unlimited support. I can only promise you that I will do everything I can to prevent anyone or any department from using your 'superpowers' again."

"Thank you, real sister."

"I should be the one thanking you. You go to work as usual tomorrow and we'll talk again."

"Consultant Huang is also a member of the investigation team?"

"Yes, the military has always doubted the source of Third Uncle's information. One of the conditions for the support given by the superiors is to let Huang Pingchu join so that the military can grasp the first-hand progress. I think this is a good thing. With the assistance of the military, The investigation will be easier."

"Who else is the member?"

"leaf."

"Has he also started to doubt Third Uncle?"

"It's possible that Third Uncle sent him to find out the news. Anyway, I don't fully trust him yet."

"Yeah." Lu Linbei knew that he should have reservations about Lu Yezhou when speaking in the future.

"Guanzhuqian."

"And her?"

"She now represents Wang Chenwen. This is a phased cooperation. It will expire once Nong Xingwen is found."

"Any more?"

"It's just these few people, no more."

"Sister Zhen has any clues about Nong Xingwen's whereabouts?"

"There are many clues, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, but there is one that Guan Zhuqian and I both think is very important." Mei Wangzhen stopped and looked at Lu Linbei, "It has something to do with Chen Manchi."
