The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 546
"Don't sleep a little longer?"

Qilan pushed the door lightly and came in, and moved to the bed with concern.

"I want to eat."

Lin Mi hugged the pillow tightly, and a scent of flowers and herbs permeated from it, which was refreshing.

It's a pity that it's not a roast chicken, otherwise it must be gnawed into a clean chicken frame with relish.

"You wait, I'll get some food."

The furniture in the house is simple and exquisite, the bamboo curtains and screens are full of ancient charm, and the wooden floor is also laid with light-colored cushions.

This unfamiliar environment will not be used to it for a while.

But Qilan naturally walked to the small wooden cabinet by the wall, opened the cabinet door and took a box of snacks.

He picked up the teapot on the round table, filled the porcelain cup, and held it in front of her together with the snacks.

Looking at Lin Mi's complexion, it was better than during the day.It is too dangerous to rush into the city from the river in the middle of the night and tear off the scarf on the street.

The high fever has just subsided, and she still needs to recuperate for a while. Some things can be hidden, so that she can rest assured to take care of her body.

It's not too late when he successfully rescues Mrs. Lin.

Just as he was about to ask, "What is this place?" Lin Mi heard a gentle push on the door.

"Can I come in?" Chrissy showed her lovely blond hair and closed her eyes pretending not to look at them.

"So you sent me to Mrs. Ye's house." Lin Mi coquettishly reached out and pulled Qilan's clothes, "You still pretended to be mysterious."

After finishing speaking, he smiled and waved to Yang Niuer: "Brother Chen, how are you?"

"Very good," just as the voice finished, there was another figure beside the door.

Chen Xing's leg pain eased slightly, and he could barely walk around on the ground.

He staggered over, looked at the snacks on the table, and scratched his head in confusion: "Xiaolan couldn't do a double body, so she sent Miss Lin to the Baijia Medical Center to see a doctor and get medicine by herself. To pick something delicious?"

"I didn't buy it. The old Mr. Bai sent me the medicated snacks. I dropped by and returned Bai Zhu's precious horse. Fortunately, it was not stolen."

"Bai Shu is so stingy, he is willing to lend you his mount? It must be his grandfather's face."

Qilan also nodded: "They all liked the things we brought back last time. They especially praised the dried fish and cakes made by you and your aunt. There are also a lot of gifts in return. Half of the car was loaded."

"So it was made by Sister Bai Zhi." Chen Xing happily stuffed a big piece into his mouth, "It's even more delicious than last time, and the little girl's craftsmanship is getting better and better."

He sincerely praised the granddaughter of the Bai family who was about the same age as his dead sister, but Lin Mi suddenly felt depressed.

Originally, he was not a small-minded person, but the bunch of indistinguishable words left by Lu Shibin during the day aroused suspicion and caution in his heart.

When Qilan gave a piece of pastry to her palm, she reluctantly accepted it with a smile, the taste was like chewing wax.

Even, a little choked, tears fell down.

"I still want to lie down for a while, I'm tired."

After finishing speaking, Lin Mi got into bed again, his shiny black hair fell on the pillow, and he closed his eyes to rest.

"Xiao Lin, I'm going to heat you a cup of milk." Chris hurried out to get busy.

She didn't answer.Breathing evenly, eyes covered with long lashes, she looked asleep again.

As soon as the foreign girl left, Chen Xing couldn't wait to pull Qilan and asked in a low voice:

"The inn was on fire, and Hedgehog was shot to death nearby. Could it be the same gang?"

"It's unlikely. He and I waited and watched in the car for three hours. If the person who set the fire hasn't left yet, wouldn't he have done it earlier?"

Qilan tries hard to recall the details of Lu Shibin being shot.At that time, he was focused on saving Lin Mi, so he didn't pay much attention to the direction of the bullet.Therefore, it will be unclear for a while whether it was shot by one person or by multiple people.

When driving away at a fast speed, the body of the car was also heavily hit by a string of bullets.Two pierced the metal door and burrowed deep into the seat.

The car that attacked Lu Shibin before was done by a low-level Mr. Shen from the secret base, but the car owner himself cleaned it up, except for bullet holes and other clues.

After sending Lin Mi back to Chris to settle down, Qilan dug out the two bullets with a dagger and took a closer look: there was no trace of a triangle on them, which was completely different from what was expected.

So he was not sure whether the bullets engraved with triangular symbols that Zhang Wenxuan took out from Lin Yitang and Zhu Boyuan were products of the secret base.

Chen Xing lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked: "Who will the hedgehog head have grudges with?"

Qilan explained the real relationship between Lu Shibin and General Hong in detail, and Chen Xing was dumbfounded.

"It's over, the hedgehog head is too good at being a man. In the hospital, he would pretend to be modest and cautious, but he dared to plot to kill his adoptive father for Miss Xiaomei? In my opinion, it is the aftermath that General Hong sent people to eliminate."

"But General Hong has already got the news that his own nephew is cooking at the Longfu Inn, how could he ask his subordinates to set it on fire?"

Qilan shook his head.The fire in the inn was already on fire when they arrived.

The two squatted on the side of the street watching the fire burn until dawn.Lu Shibin was afraid that it would be bad if the police came and bumped into him, so he hurried to leave.

A sigh came from the bottom of his heart.

"Li Yan is fine. I sent him to a safe place to recuperate. I don't know if the little apprentice escaped. He is only 14 years old, so pitiful."

"If you say that, I still have a question," Chen Xing stared into his eyes, "Since the shooter saw that you were in the same car as Hedgehog, why did he just focus on shooting him into a sieve? And you are unharmed?"

"The car was also shot."

"That's just a deception. If you really want to kill you, it's as easy to hit the door as it is to hit the front wheel."

Qilan couldn't figure it out for the time being.The only fortunate thing is that he was able to successfully evacuate Lin Mi from the hail of bullets.

Not long after they left, the police from the brigade rushed to the scene.

Lu Shibin, who was bloody on the street, was also wrapped tightly and taken to the police station.

Quietly looking at Lin Mi, she felt relieved that her sleeping position hadn't changed at all.

"How did Brother Chen bring Mi'er into the city?"

"The waterway I took her was from the stone bridge at the entrance of the village."

Chen Xing only chose the good ones and said, not mentioning how icy the river was, how sharp the stones on the river beach were, and how eerie the black rafting was.

Qilan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with relief: "I just said, I was a little restless last night until dawn. You must not take a word just because of Mi'er in the future. Life is not a joke."

"You went to meet Hedgehog in private without telling us, what if you were ambushed?"

"I also have my own confidence." Obviously the words have come to his lips, Qilan looked at the quilt that was slightly moving, and stopped suddenly, and did not say his plan to save Mrs. Lin.

Under heavy precautions, it is not easy to rescue a person who has been detained for dozens of days.If Lin Mi didn't sleep deeply and heard every word, wouldn't it make her restless?
Chen Xing nodded with a vague understanding, grabbed the snack and continued to eat.
