The secret war is silent

A ray of morning light shone down from the horizon.

A rare piece of good weather.

It was quiet in the forest, except for the occasional chirp of birds, and the shrouded layer of mist slowly dissipated.

rustle……

The breeze picks up.

A figure carrying a medicine basket was walking on the mountain road. Looking at the white fish belly on the horizon, he subconsciously waved the hoe in his hand to collect medicine.

Collecting herbs is his day's work. Some medicinal materials need to be picked within a certain period of time, and then dried and processed in various ways.

Therefore, you need to get up early and go into the mountains every day. This is the job of the herb collector.

Sister, someone has come in. He is dressed as a herb collector from nearby. Gong Hui, who was ambushing the abandoned house in the forest, quickly received the report.

Go down with the order, hide yourself, don't expose yourself. Gong Hui has been here for one night. She has enough patience. Even if she stays here for three days and three nights, there will be no problem.

yes.

The young herb collector was approaching the abandoned house in the forest while collecting herbs. Not long after, he appeared in the ambush sight of Gong Hui and others.

Sister, this guy is indeed collecting medicine. Could we have made a mistake?

My opponent is not an ordinary person. If he is really pretending to be a herb collector, he will definitely not let you see it. Regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as he walks into the abandoned house, I will hold him down! Gong Hui said.

clear.

The herb collector was getting closer and closer to the abandoned house. When he inadvertently looked up and saw such an abandoned wooden house in the woods, a smile appeared on his face.

This is nothing. If he is really a mountain dweller living nearby, he must be familiar with the environment in the Green Fruit Forest. It is normal to know that there is such an abandoned wooden house here.

The herb collector took off the kettle from his back, took a sip, and then continued to bend down to search for herbs. In this way, it took him more than half an hour to reach the wooden house.

At this time, the sun was shining brightly over the forest.

Although autumn has already begun, the power of the autumn tiger is still considerable, and the backs of the herb collectors can be seen getting wet.

As for the action team members led by Gong Hui who were ambushing not far from the wooden house, they were all so nervous that they didn't dare to take a breath, let alone the sweltering heat and humidity.

Even Gong Hui herself was sweating profusely and her clothes stuck to her body, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Sister, he went in...

Get ready to take action and keep alive. Gong Hui ordered.

The herb picker opened the door and walked in, put down the medicine basket, looked around, found a stool and sat down.

He took out a piece of pancake from his backpack and just took a bite when he found himself surrounded by four or five black guns.

He was so frightened that he threw away the pancake in his hand, fell down from the stool, and begged for mercy loudly in panic: Hero, spare your life!

Name, identity, what do you do, where do you live?

Gong Hui walked in and shouted.

Li Erhu is a herbal collector. My family lives in Xiagouzi Village in Laoqiao Mountain. Good man, I really have no money. I only have this basket of herbs I just picked...

Pull up his arms and sleeves! Gong Hui said coldly.

The two agents stepped forward, held down Li Erhu, and rolled up his sleeves. Li Erhu's expression suddenly changed.

For someone who has been going to the mountains to collect herbs all year round, it's fine that your skin is so fair and pure. You don't even have any old injuries from adulthood. I would believe it even if you scratched your skin a little bit. Gong Hui sneered, I've seen The arms of a herb collector are very different from yours. Even if you are young when collecting herbs, it is common for you to get bumped and injured when you go into the mountains to collect herbs, not to mention being bitten by snakes, insects, rats, ants, etc. , do you think you have it?

Li Erhu's face turned pale.

Also, when medicine collectors go into the mountains, they will definitely bring medicine that can ward off snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Usually there is a medicine called realgar in it. You don't have the smell of realgar at all. Do you still need me to tell you more? Gong Hui continued.

Yes, Miss Tomoko is right. My disguise can hide it from many people, but it cannot hide it from the eyes of the military fox. Li Erhu suddenly calmed down and smiled, But you won't get anything.

No, take off his chin, quickly...

The agent who caught him was still a step too slow. A stream of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he would not survive.

Team leader, I'm out of breath. A special agent stepped forward to check his breathing, then felt the pulse on his neck, shook his head and said.

Gong Hui gritted her teeth and said: It seems that there is someone behind him. Brother Yao's guess is right. Hase Mie is not the only criminal. Take the body back, take photos, perform an autopsy, confirm the identity, and investigate social relations.

yes.

If a person dies and cannot go back, the Miss Tomoko mentioned by this guy will definitely know about it. In this way, it will still alert the enemy.

The other party actually sent a minion over, which was careful enough, but the more people used it, the more flaws there were. It would be more difficult for her to erase so many traces.

Luo Yao must be notified of this situation immediately.

…

Luo Yao packed up his things and left Huangshan Mansion early in the morning. Before leaving, he naturally followed the etiquette and said goodbye to his wife and the old man.

It would be too rude to leave quietly like this.

Of course, whether the old man and his wife see him is another matter. This is an attitude. In fact, he is also afraid of this trouble. It would be better not to see him.

However, what he didn't expect was that the old man and his wife actually met him in the restaurant of Yunxiu Tower and asked him to stay and have breakfast with them.

Although he is not used to eating milk bread and prefers soy milk and fried dough sticks, can he refuse to eat it?

In fact, they just had breakfast and didn't say a few words. After the meal, Luo Yao briefly reported the case. The old man didn't comment much. Obviously, he already had some understanding of the case. After all, Luo Yao had just been raped by his wife the night before. Summoned and reported.

Luo Yao said goodbye and exited the restaurant.

Ma'am, what do you think?

He is a very capable and capable young man. The lady nodded.

What's even more rare is his character, humility, respect for teachers, and not caring about personal gains and losses. Among the many young talents in the party and state, there are not many who can compare with him. The old man said.

Darling, you think highly of him! the lady asked in surprise.

Putting such a talent in the military command is too limiting. The old man suddenly sighed with emotion.

Isn't he not serving in the military command now?

I still know something about Yu Nong's thoughts. I'm afraid I won't let him leave the military command easily. The old man said.

Is it possible that Dai Yunong wants to train him as his successor?

Yes.

Darling, you have to make up your mind on this matter. A strong military unification may not be a good thing. Madam reminded quietly.

I know, but now we still need him to contribute to the country. The old man nodded.

I see that Luo Youning is not married yet. Can we find a good match for him? the lady suggested.

Don't, Luo Youning has already fallen in love, but due to military regulations, they can't get married yet, the old man said.

What kind of family rules are these, and you don't care about them?

Although this family rule is a bit unkind, in terms of the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, this family rule is effective. It is only a temporary measure and does not permanently prohibit members of the military from getting married. The old man said.

Who is his girlfriend? I also want to meet her. What kind of girl can please him? the lady asked curiously.

You may have seen him. At the last banquet for General Chennault, he brought that girl. Moreover, don't underestimate her. She is the woman behind Luo Youning. She is responsible for all Luo Youning's achievements. , and he is also his right-hand man at work, helping him share a lot of things. He was assassinated by a Japanese spy last year and almost became a martyr. The old man said.

Oh, this is the first time I've heard of such a talent among women. Madam said in surprise.

Madam doesn't care about these things on a daily basis, so naturally she doesn't know.

I must meet this girl.

They are from the same training class. They are classmates, comrades-in-arms, and partners. They have a love that goes through life and death together. So, madam, you'd better not have other thoughts. This is not beautiful. The old man warned.

I know, would I do that kind of thing to force someone to break up their marriage? Madam rolled her eyes at the old man.

…

Ah sneeze!

Brother Yao, I'm catching a cold. It's the beginning of autumn. It's hot during the day but gets cold at night. You should put on an extra layer of clothes at night.

Okay, drive your car, my nose is just itchy. Luo Yao scolded Cai Xiaochun angrily.

Where are we going? Why don't we go home? Cai Xiaochun asked.

Go to Twilight Mansion first and wait until I meet Xin Wu. Luo Yao ordered, I'll take a nap and call me when you get there.

Okay, I get it. Cai Xiaochun agreed. Luo Yao didn't sleep until three or four in the morning while writing materials last night, and woke up two hours later.

after an hour.

Brother Yao, you're here. Xin Xiaowu welcomed Luo Yao into the office, made a cup of coffee and brought it over.

Any news about Tiger?

Well, I sent it last night, saying that there were some finds in that old soup house, but nothing special. They were just some belongings, a pen and some old letterheads. It should be that she forged Qi Bin's letter and left it. The others have not been discovered yet.”

Is anyone still there?

Yes, they are still staying in the old store. They said they would look for it again to see if they would find anything else. We now communicate every two hours. Xin Xiaowu explained.

Tell them that if nothing is discovered today, come back to me early tomorrow morning. Luo Yao thought for a moment and ordered.

clear.

You will temporarily take over Suqing's Vegetarian Soup Restaurant. Ah Xiang will be in charge of the main store, but the financial aspects will be independently supervised. Luo Yao ordered.

Understood, I will make arrangements to go to the vegetarian soup restaurant. When will Miss Axiang come over? Xin Xiaowu asked.

When will she come? Please contact Gong Hui and ask. That's it. I still have something to do. Luo Yao took a sip of coffee and said, Prepare a set of coffee making tools and desserts for me. In the past, Dusk I’ll take the coffee house sign with me.”

Yes, please wait a moment, I will arrange for someone to make it for you immediately.
