Spy Family

Lu Linbei didn't let Lu Yezhou see him off. He rode his two-wheeled bicycle back to his residence. On the way, he received a strange call.

"Is this Major Lu Lin Hokuriku?"

"It's me, you're..." Lu Linbei didn't stop and was still speeding down the deserted street.

"Don't worry about who I am, you have to be careful."

"Be careful..."

When the other party ended the call, Lu Linbei was confused. From the tone of his voice, the other party didn't sound like a threat, but more like a sincere reminder. Soon, he understood that Mao Woxue was extremely efficient and had probably spread the rumors widely.

There was another checkpoint ahead. Lu Linbei slowed down and several police officers came up to him. They checked his identity and let him go after confirming that he was from Uranus.

In Paradise City, theoretically all alien residents can travel at will. In fact, only the residents of Uranus have the most useful identities and will not be subject to interrogation. However, they are also the most difficult to obtain. Even in the Military Intelligence Office, only a few investigators can. have.

Before returning to his residence, Lu Linbei received two more messages from unknown persons. One directly asked if there was really anything about sending people out of the city, and the other issued the most direct threat - you are dead!

Lu Linbei never replied. He went to bed. He woke up four hours later and rode to work. He found that the chip had received more messages. After a quick glance, he still didn't reply.

Mei Wangzhen did not come. As usual, most of the investigators also asked for leave, and four or five people held a brief meeting.

Zhu Canchen was very punctual. He did not create any more miracles today. He read the information all day long and gained nothing.

Around noon, Lu Yezhou came and sat on the sofa without speaking for a long time. Lu Linbei ignored him and continued to process the documents seriously.

"I told Miao Ruofeng." Lu Yezhou said suddenly.

"Very good." Lu Linbei replied without raising his head.

“She loved the project and was putting her artist friends in touch with surviving members of the Independence Army, and then I discovered something.”

"What's up?"

"She really can't protect us."

Lu Linbei glanced at him. He had already said something similar last night, but Lu Yezhou didn't seem to fully accept it.

"Miao Ruofeng is willing to provide protection, but she doesn't know much about her own abilities. She does things purely with passion. She always succeeds in small things. I'm afraid she will shrink back when encountering big things."

"How did you tell?"

"Thank you." Lu Yezhou said angrily, taking his anger out on his good friend, "After you said those words to me, I began to look at Miao Ruofeng more objectively. When we met in the morning, I brought up your plan. , she was very happy, a little too happy. She said it was best not to have a direct conflict with the Usagi official or First Light Industry. There were several of her elders there. If she really had a falling out, her father would not forgive her when she returned home. Got her."

"She's a great lady."

"Yes, actually she only wanted to send away a dozen people at first, but she didn't expect that the scale would get bigger and bigger, completely beyond expectations. She was already a little scared. Although she didn't say it out loud, I could see it. Come out. Old Bei, this is all your fault."

"Blame me?"

"I can walk quite well with my blindfold on. You must come over and take away the blindfold and force me to see the danger ahead."

"Do you want to cover your eyes again?"

"How is it possible? Once you see it clearly, you can no longer hide it. Lao Bei, I still need a little confidence. What you gave me last night is almost used up."

Lu Linbei stared at him seriously, "What am I doing?"

"Um?"

“Let me ask you: What am I doing right now?”

"Talk to me... and take care of those boring papers."

"Yes, this is the 'confidence' I give you."

Lu Yezhou was stunned for a while, then stood up and said with a smile: "You always keep calm. Well, your confidence is back a little bit. Goodbye, I'm about to set off. Don't you just want to make the King Star believe that we have panicked? Everyone is worried. Looking for a way out? I want to be more thorough."

"what you up to?"

"Don't worry, just wait for my news." Lu Yezhou got up and ran out, as hurriedly as when he came in. He didn't know if he really gained confidence.

Lu Yezhou was at least willing to admit that he had no confidence. Lu Linbei thought this was a good sign, but it also brought about a small trouble. Lu Linbei began to look for confidence in his heart, and after a while he stopped this unintentional behavior. This thought must be eliminated in order to remain calm - his calmness is not brought by confidence, but from a state of chaos: focusing on the small things at hand one after another, and not thinking about the so-called big things.

Shortly after noon, Yang Guanghan personally initiated the call. After the call was connected, he laughed a few times and then said: "Are you free tomorrow? Let's have dinner together at noon. The new restaurant and new dishes will guarantee your satisfaction."

"OK."

"Well, arrange the time and I will send someone to pick you up."

In Lu Linbei's entire plan, Yang Guanghan's invitation was of key significance. Lu Linbei felt a little excitement in his heart, but quickly suppressed it. He didn't need any emotion now.

At almost three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Yuxin initiated a call, as if he had discussed it with Yang Guanghan. As soon as the call was connected, he smiled and giggled. Lu Linbei almost thought that there was something wrong with the earphones on the multifunctional glasses.

"Major Lu, prepare to praise me."

"Miss Su?"

"Of course it's me, I've succeeded..."

"Don't say it here."

"Yes, I'm a little too excited. Where can we meet?"

"It's still the same place as last night."

"that house……"

"Just know it, no need to say it."

"Yes Yes."

"You get there in an hour and a half. Don't be early or late. When you see someone in the store, go in. If no one leaves, leave immediately."

"Yes, I saw you go in again."

"It doesn't matter who is inside, you can go in."

"Oh, I thought..."

"Goodbye." Lu Linbei ended the call and stood up to find Zhu Canchen.

Zhu Canchen was not in a daze, he was staring at the monitor and browsing the information.

"You have to leave work early today."

"Ah, really? I still haven't finished reading more than half of it."

"Don't worry about them, I want to give you another task." Lu Linbei paused for a moment and added: "It's considered overtime."

Zhu Canchen immediately showed joy, "I'm ready."

Lu Linbei wrote the address of the fortune-telling shop on the table with his fingers, stroke by stroke, "Do you understand?"

"Yeah." Zhu Canchen was more cautious and did not say what he saw.

"Take this chip ring, go to this place, push the door directly in, and sit by the window. If someone directly pushes the door in, that's the person you have to wait for, listen to her, and then come back and tell me, if someone knocks on the door , open the door and leave immediately, saying that he is also a guest and did not wait for the host."

"yes."

Lu Linbei looked at the time and said, "Let's go now and wait until 4:40 at most. If no one comes, we must leave immediately."

"yes."

Lu Linbei sent Zhu Canchen out of the company and returned to the office.

In the afternoon meeting, Mei forgot to ask for leave, and fewer investigators came. In addition, there were only three people from Lu Linbei. They reported work for five minutes and chatted for ten minutes. The other two left at the same time.

Not long after the meeting ended, Zhu Canchen came back, and Lu Linbei took him to find a chair next to the small square to sit down.

"It's a woman. I didn't ask her name. She calls herself Su Yuxin." Zhu Canchen said while returning the ring.

"Well, it's her."

"This is what she said: I sent an email to Yu Pinzui last night and got a reply this morning. I found that he seemed to have found the seller, so I wrote back and laughed at him, saying that I was the only owner of sedatives on the black market. No deposit was required, and the transaction was in person. , one-hand money and one-hand goods, and those who ask for a deposit are all scammers..."

"I understand Miss Su's speaking style. You don't need to repeat it, just summarize it." Lu Linbei stopped him in time. Zhu Canchen had a good memory and could really repeat everything Su Yuxin said.

Zhu Canchen was obviously relieved. Miss Su's words were confusing and mixed with some strange provocations. He really didn't want to say it again.

"That's it. It only took a few hours for Miss Su to gain Yu Pinzui's complete trust. Yu Pinzui thought she was the only dealer of sedatives and cut off contact with other 'liars'. Today at noon, the two met in a restaurant, To build deeper trust, Ms. Su said that she did not have the goods in hand, but the supply was very stable and could be obtained at any time, so she asked Yu Pinzui to make an appointment in advance, and Yu Pinzui made an appointment at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest."

"very good."

The source of information about the sedatives was Zhu Canchen himself. He said nothing about it, "Miss Su hopes she can get the goods as soon as possible."

"Tell her to feel free to worry."

"Should I keep in touch with her?"

"Yes, she is also one of your analysis targets. Pay attention to her words and deeds, and notify me immediately if you find any abnormalities."

"yes."

"You can get off work."

Zhu Canchen nodded and stood up to leave, then stopped and said with a smile: "So, we are really commercial spies."

When Lu Linbei recruited Zhu Canchen, he used the name of Infinite Light Industry's Alien Investigation Section, "Of course."

Back in the office, Lu Linbei finished processing some of the remaining documents and lay on the sofa to rest while thinking about every step of the plan. In the middle, he went to the equipment room to check the brain epitaxial device to ensure that everything was safe.

At about eight o'clock in the evening, Mei Wangzhen finally came back and took a look at the person on the sofa, "You are quite relaxed."

Lu Linbei slowly sat up and said with a smile, "Yes, it's so relaxing that I almost fell asleep."

Mei Wangzhen also smiled, sat down in his seat, and checked the files in the system first, "Are you going to ask for leave tomorrow?"

"Yang Guanghan wants to treat me to dinner, so he has to go. The place he chose must be very good."

Mei Wangzhen became serious, "So it's tomorrow? It's earlier than expected."

"Probably, anyway, the sooner the better, to avoid long nights and dreams."

"I got some information that I hope will be useful to you: First, Guan Zhuqian failed to contact Jiazixing, nor did he find Chen Manchi, but those experts found a way to quickly repair the interstellar network function of the space station."

"So Yu Pinzui is going to lead the team to the space station."

"Two, the news you released has had an effect. The King of Kings has determined that King Zhai is in a state of internal collapse." Mei Wangzhen paused for a moment and continued: "You guessed it right again. Star King of King Zhai is likely to attack the soldiers of King Zhai. Catch them all in one fell swoop, including our Military Intelligence Department. No matter how many or close relatives we have, it will be useless at this time, and it may even be counterproductive. Commander-in-chief Shi Liangbi will kill them in order to create an image of being 'not partial to personal gain'."

Lu Linbei didn't "guess" it. He was not a member of the family, had no relatives, and did not have many friends like Lu Yezhou and others in Zhao Wangxing, so he had no illusions and could see very clearly.

"If things go well on my end, Sister Zhen also has a lot to do."

"Don't worry, it's all simple."

"Better bring the leaves, he feels like he's been left behind."

"Huh? Is he still a child? He actually has such an idea. I will need him, soon."

"Then let's make a scene."

"Let's make a big fuss." Mei Wangzhen said with a smile. She didn't need Lu Linbei's encouragement, and she was already full of fighting spirit.
