Spy Family

Chapter 42 Evaluation Period

Lu Linbei began to give up alcoholic drinks, cleared out the trash in the house, and bought a table and four chairs. They were cheap and simple, and they were just beginning to take shape.

Mei Qianzhong sat on it and said, It feels like I'm on vacation at the beach. Old Bei, did you come here from the beach?

Lu Yezhou was very satisfied, It's better than sitting on the ground, Old Bei, where did you find the merchant?

Mei Qianzhong also asked: Yes, why don't I remember there is a furniture store nearby?

Lu Linbei smiled and said: The grocery store is on the corner of the street. We have to pass by there every time we go out.

Mei Qianzhong thought carefully for a while, The one where the proprietress is particularly enchanting?

Mei Wangzhen came in from outside, without even knocking on the door. He threw the bag in his hand on the table and asked, No news yet?

Lu Linbei shook his head, Sit down.

Mei Wangzhen sat for a while before he noticed the new furnishings. He looked at them and said, Are you three planning to live a long life? It must have been brought by Lao Bei. He has the temperament of a housewife. Lao Qian, you are the philandering husband. .Ye Zi, you...

What am I?

You are a son who is not loved by your parents.

Mei Qianzhong laughed, Lu Linbei shook his head, and Lu Yezhou blushed with anger, I am an orphan, where do I get my parents? Where do I get my love?

Mei Wangzhen leaned forward and patted Lu Yezhou, I'm just kidding, I was wrong. I apologize to you.

Lu Yezhou then smiled, I'm not angry...

Mei Wangzhen looked at Lu Linbei, Lao Bei, how many days has it been?

Exactly four days.

No news at all?

No.

Aren't you going to talk to the female fortune teller again?

She is just a messenger. She can't make decisions, and there's no point in talking. Instead, she will make Guan Zhuqian look down on us.

Mei Qianzhong raised his hands and said: On this matter, I agree with Lao Bei. Guan Zhuqian has her own information channels. If she thinks we are valuable, she will naturally come to her. If she thinks we are not, Lao Bei can tell us. It’s no use making all the noise.”

Of course Mei Wangzhen understood this truth and sighed, It's better not to have hope, but I'm afraid that there is hope but it won't be realized. Lao Bei, guess what the other party is thinking now?

I guess Guan Zhuqian is evaluating.

Assess our worth?

Mainly crooks.

Mei Qianzhong smiled and said: If this team leader Guan sees more of my photos and videos, he will definitely think that I am priceless.

Mei Wangzhen never took his cousin's handsome appearance seriously, and curled his lips unabashedly and said: If she sees that you rely on your face to make a living, we have no hope.

Haha, in our industry, we must be able to use our own advantages. Mei Qianzhong stood up, walked to the window and looked out, The longer I wait, the greater my hope.

Why?

Mei Qianzhong turned to face the three of them, with no smile on his face, If I were Guan Zhuqian, facing the four spies who came to my door, if I didn't want to accept them, I would send them out as a 'small gift'.

Who would want us? Lu Yezhou didn't quite understand.

Give it to the existing intelligence agent in the Emergency Department to help him perform meritorious services and gain more trust; give it to the Information Department, so that the Cui family can gain control and squeeze the last remaining value from us; give it to the Future Whip to let them Revenge and gain their gratitude; give it to a certain careerist who is vying for the position of director, destroy the last bit of glory of the old director and third uncle; give it to...

Liar, stop talking. The more I listen, the more scared I become. Lu Yezhou's face did turn a little pale, I thought we had no value left. But... these things won't happen, right?

Lu Yezhou looked at Mei Qianzhong and Lu Linbei in turn, but it was Mei Wangzhen who answered him, It's completely possible, otherwise how can we call it a risk? If it doesn't even have this value, First Light Industry Group will not Pay no attention to us. I understand what the con man means. If there is no news from Guan Zhuqian, it is the best news.

Mei Qian nodded and looked out the window again, What I'm more worried about is how we will get rid of Guan Zhuqian in the future. She may not be willing to make just one transaction.

Mei Wangzhen and Lu Yezhou looked at Lu Linbei, waiting for his answer.

Let's take one step first. Lu Linbei had a rough idea in his mind, but he didn't want to say it out now.

Mei Wangzhen smiled, leaned back, and leaned back comfortably on the chair, The future is unknown? I like it, but I just hope I won't be asked to sit and wait like this again.

Wangzhen, is there any progress on the origin of the 'Iron Fist'? Mei Qianzhong returned to his seat, subconsciously reaching for the wine can, but only saw a few glasses of water on the table, so he retracted in disgust. hand.

How do I know? I'm on suspension just like you.

There's no news from the police either? If you forget your truth, there's no need for us to hide it from each other.

Mei Wangzhen's face turned slightly red, and then he smiled and said, It's not that I'm hiding it, but that guy Lin Mo Shen has a very strict mouth.

But you always have a way to make him talk. I have never doubted your ability. Mei Qianzhong said with a smile.

Mei Wangzhen snorted, There has been no substantial progress yet. Several material suppliers have been found, but the purchaser claimed that the warehouse was stolen and had reported the case. The clues were interrupted. The true identity of 'Iron Fist' was found out. He is an ordinary person. A young man from a good family ran away from home three years ago because he was fond of playing games. His parents also called the police, but the police have not notified them yet.

Although no one looked over, Lu Yezhou still intervened: He is too addicted. I also play games, but I will not run away from home because of this.

Mei Wangzhen ignored him and continued: The game on the island is still going on. The police searched twice and found no other suspicious characters. They only found a few teenagers and sent them home. The Future Whip is special now. To be honest, even ordinary gatherings are rarely held, so the scammer is at least safe for the time being. As for the Emergency Department, the fight has almost been won, and there are three candidates left. One is a high-ranking member of the General Intelligence Bureau. Mei's family will definitely oppose it, and the other two All of them are deputy directors of the Mei family, and one of them you might not expect is Mei Yongge. He made such a big mistake, but he was not punished. Instead... Coyote, you don't smile quite right.

Am I smiling weirdly? It's nothing. It's just that from Officer Lin, my definition of 'strict mouth' has changed a lot. Mei Qianzhong turned sideways to avoid possible attacks.

Mei Wangzhen snorted again, He's not a spy, so how can he come up with so many rules? That's pretty much it. There is still no news about the third uncle. It seems that the results will not come until the new director takes office. The same goes for us.

Mei Qianzhong wanted to take the wine again, but after realizing it was water, he retracted his hand again, Director Yong made mistakes, but he also made meritorious deeds. Remember, I told you about the process of finding the traitor. Among the seven targets, one A deputy director-general tipped off the director of the General Administration, and this deputy director-general is Mei Yongge. To be honest, I think there is something fishy hidden here. My third uncle probably thinks so too, but...well, the old director-general left at a really bad time. .

When the old director was mentioned, the four of them fell into silence.

After a long time, Lu Yezhou said: Director Yong seems to be quite kind. If he takes office, he will not have any influence on us, right?

Mei Wangzhen sneered, You grew up on a farm, but you haven't heard of the grudge between Mei Yongge and your third uncle.

I've never heard of it! Lu Yezhou showed an expression of extreme surprise, They are all members of the same family, how can they become enemies?

Mei Wangzhen glanced at Mei Qianzhong and said, That happened many years ago. We don't know the specific situation, but we know that the two of them had a deep grudge. The third uncle returned to the farm to be a teacher. It was related to this. It wasn't until Mei Yongge temporarily lost power that the old director could invite the third uncle back. But who would have thought that in just a few days, alas, the old man was right, the old director left at the wrong time.

The four of them fell into silence again. Lu Linbei moved his earlobe, hummed a few times, said good again, raised his head to Mei Qianzhong and said, I have to trouble you to find me a better hotel.

What level? Is it the kind that makes the other person talk endlessly and makes them want to sit for a while longer, or the kind that makes you make up for it with sweet words?

Lu Linbei smiled and said: A suitable place to talk.

Understood. When?

Tonight, it's still around seven o'clock.

Okay. Mei Qianzhong couldn't bear it any longer. He got up and went to the kitchen to look for wine. He took two more cans and threw them to Mei Wangzhen and Lu Yezhou, Old Bei, forget it if you don't want to drink. Wangzhen, you happen to be here. I'll give it to you later. Lao Bei, dress up properly.

Is it the kind that makes the other party immediately want to take it for themselves, or is it the kind that makes the other party feel that it remains to be seen?

The kind that doesn't attract attention. Lu Linbei replied.

Then the way you are dressed now is enough. Mei Wangzhen stood up and said, Take out your suitcase.

Lu Linbei entered the room, and Lu Yezhou smiled and said: Sister Zhen, it's the kind of 'take it for yourself', you can design it for me.

Mei Wangzhen looked at him and said, Go buy a cake and hold it in your hand. Go to a place where there are many slender women. There must be someone who wants to take you as their own.

Sister Zhen is kidding me.

Lu Linbei didn't have many clothes, so he spent a long time trying to match them. Finally he was a little satisfied, You should buy some new clothes. Go ahead and give the female fortune teller a good impression and ask her to say more nice things.

I'm going to negotiate.

Mei Wangzhen rolled up Lu Linbei's sleeves, straightened his collar, and took two steps back to see what other details could be adjusted. Yes, it's a negotiation, but if you can seduce him, it's not a bad thing.

Lu Linbei looked helpless, and Lu Yezhou giggled.

It was still five minutes before seven o'clock. Lu Linbei walked into the store. The old fortune teller was sitting at the table playing cards. He raised his head and smiled and said, Come to pick up Xiao Man?

Yes. Lu Linbei stepped forward and stretched out his hand, Hello, my name is Lu Linbei.

Hello, you can call me 'Ms. Red Magpie'.

Hello. Lu Linbei nodded, unable to pronounce the other person's name.

Fortunately, Chen Manchi came out early and put a few hairbands on his head to suppress his long hair, making him look younger.

What a good young man. The old fortune teller's wrinkled face seemed to melt with a smile.

Chen Manchi went out first, and Lu Linbei nodded to the old fortune teller and followed.

When Lu Linbei said the name of the hotel, Chen nodded slowly and said, That's a good place.

The place is really nice, the lighting is ambiguous and elegant. Although there are no partitions and no waiters, all the guests consciously whisper when talking. In order to hear each other clearly, they often lean forward slightly to close the distance.

The two chatted while eating. They didn't talk much, but there was no silence. Chen Manchi didn't mention Guan Zhuqian, and Lu Linbei didn't ask.

When the dinner was about to end, Chen Manchi finally got down to business, and his voice was so low that Lu Linbei had to press his upper body almost on the table to hear him.

After a chance encounter, you have been pursuing me, but I am lukewarm, so you always go to my store, but not too often. Twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, invite me out to dinner, I may accept , or may not accept it.”

Lu Linbei kept nodding.

Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow.

Not counting today, it will be four days later.

You felt you needed help, so you took your companions—how many of them?

Plus four of me.

Come to my store at nine o'clock in the morning on time.

Lu Linbei stood up and said Okay, but thought in his heart: If this is a trap, it will be perfect.

As if reading his thoughts, Chen Manchi added: As long as there is something abnormal, even if it rains without warning, the meeting will be cancelled.
