Chapter 284 I Picked Up a Submarine

Zhou Yusheng dared not gamble.

He went to investigate with mixed feelings.

Before conducting the investigation, Zhou Yusheng wanted to talk to Lin Sisi first.

Lin Sisi had the same thought as Zhou Yusheng after hearing this.

"Is that possible? Zhao Di is only fourteen years old."

Lin Sisi's biological mother had a different opinion, saying, "In ancient times, people would be engaged at the age of fourteen."

Lin Sisi was still naive, and Zhou Yusheng said directly, "It was Shi Xia who brought it up."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Lin Sisi glared at Zhou Yusheng reproachfully, while Zhou Yusheng looked innocent.

He tried his best to explain, but was met with skepticism. Lin Sisi believed him as soon as Shi Xia's name was mentioned.

Forget it, what is he even fussing about? It's Shi Xia, just a name is enough.

After the three reached an agreement, they came up with a reason.

Just then, Fu Xue was about to give birth, and her biological mother would need several days to come from Beijing. Lin Sisi simply said she was going to take care of Fu Xue. Aunt Lin also had things to do at home and couldn't stay long. Also, because the child's maternal grandfather missed the child very much, the child would be taken away for a few days first.

When Lin Sisi is on holiday, she can go back to her parents' home for the Chinese New Year and pick up the child at the same time.

As for Zhou Zhaodi, she helped with cooking and tidying up the house at home.

Zhou Yusheng, on the other hand, used the excuse of having a mission to focus on the investigation.

Fu Xue's water broke on the second day after she was admitted to the hospital, and Old Man Xu and Shi Xia went to see her.

Shi Xia used a bit of her special ability to ensure that Fu Xue wouldn't be exhausted while giving birth.

A few hours later, Fu Xue's daughter was born.

This little baby is different from the other babies here. She is fair-skinned and has soft, sparse hair. She is so lovely that you can't help but like her at first glance.

Xue Gang, a grown man, didn't dare to hug his daughter, for fear that his clumsy hands would hurt her.

On the first day after Fu Xue gave birth, Shi Xia and Lin Sisi stayed behind to help take care of her.

The next day, Fu Xue left the hospital and went home.

Xue Gang had no holidays, and Lin Sisi couldn't keep taking leave, so Shi Xia temporarily acted as a postpartum nanny for two days. Fortunately, Fu Xue's mother finally arrived on the fourth day.

Fu Xue's biological mother expressed her gratitude endlessly, and would send some of the food to Shi Xia every day when she cooked.

Shi Xia finally understood why Fu Xue always liked to bring her food; it turned out that there was a role model in her family.

After dealing with Fu Xue's matter, Shi Xia finally had time to go see Chief Wei.

Chief Wei only knew that Shi Xia had gone out for a stroll, but had no idea what she was doing.

So he didn't pay much attention to Shi Xia's arrival at first, but when he saw that Shi Xia had lost a lot of weight, he became unhappy.

"Are you short of food or meat at home?"

"How did Wen Cheng'an raise you?!"

"These are hostages, take them all, hurry up and make up the difference!"

"Wait a minute, I remember I brought two cans of malted milk powder."

Chief Wei searched the room thoroughly and finally found the malted milk powder. He first made two large bowls for Shi Xia, the bowls being bigger than Shi Xia's face.

"I have plenty of meat; the whole island eats better than I do."

Shi Xia was right about that. She brought back a lot of beef, not to mention seafood. Plus, Baldy Brother would bring her meat from time to time, and Little Eagle would bring it over.

"I'm not lacking in meat, and I've even lost weight."

"I am leaving."

“I know you go out, but you’re starving yourself! That’s not like you at all.”

Shi Xia took a sip of the malted milk powder; it was sweet and quite delicious.

"I went out and found a submarine."

After saying that, Shi Xia didn't even look at Chief Wei's expression, picked up the two large bowls, and started drinking them in big gulps.

Chief Wei lifted his buttocks, opened his mouth halfway, the words were on the tip of his tongue, but he could only stay in this position, staring at Shi Xia as he drank.

Why did he just make such a big bowl of soup?!
"good."

Shi Xia finished drinking.

"What are you doing!" Chief Wei's face was right behind the bowl, and his smile was... well, how to describe it?
Humble? Ingratiating?
not sure.

"Scared me."

Chief Wei felt a little wronged.

Is he scary?
You told me without a word that you found a submarine, and then I got scared?
"Yes, yes, it's my fault, I'll sit down right now."

Chief Wei readily accepted his "mistake" and eagerly awaited Shi Xia's response.

"and then?"

"What then?"

Shi Xia hadn't caught up, and Chief Wei asked somewhat anxiously, "Where is the thing? There's usually a positioning system or radar signal on it, right?"

"Right, but the ones I picked up were all broken."

As for the location, she didn't know which one it was, but it didn't matter. She used her superpower to envelop the submarine, blocking out whatever it was.

"Broken? It's okay if it's broken, as long as there's some wreckage."

Chief Wei thought it must be submarine wreckage.

However, he is not picky; as long as it's available, he's fine with it. His requirements are not high at all.

Shi Xia thought about it and decided that it could be considered wreckage, but it was relatively intact.

"When are you going to send someone to pick it up? It's a bit too conspicuous."

Chief Wei attached 200% importance to this matter.

"I need to report it to the authorities and then give you an answer. For now, you can keep it hidden. I'll contact you again once we've discussed it."

"Okay, I'm going back to Hai San Island for the New Year today. Contact me again after the New Year."

"gone!"

Shi Xia left with two cans of malted milk powder. After seeing her off, Chief Wei quickly dialed the internal line.

After receiving the call, Lao Ma on the other end of the line was stunned for ten seconds.

It may seem short, but for someone like Lao Ma, ten seconds is a long time.

"she……"

Old Ma didn't say his first words, and after a few seconds of silence, he asked, "Is Shi Xia alright?"

"She looks fine, but she's lost a lot of weight."

"You've lost weight? That won't do..."

Old Ma was worried; it seemed he needed to find some tonics for Shi Xia.

"I will report this matter to my superiors, and I will go there in person when the time comes."

"it is good."

After the two hung up the phone, Lao Ma got to work, first looking for health supplements. He remembered that when Shi Xia left last time, there were still several places where he hadn't "borrowed" them.

They don't lose out by borrowing and not returning.

This is Shi Xia, the Shi Xia who can retrieve a submarine.

If it weren't for the need to conceal what Shi Xia had done, these families would probably have all offered to give it to her voluntarily once they knew what she had done.

Xia was unaware of what Lao Ma had done. After packing her things, she prepared to return to Hai San Island for the New Year.

Wen Cheng'an has a day off tomorrow. Shi Xia misses her grandfather and wants to go back to visit him first.

At the same time, Zhou Yusheng also arrived at Zhou Zhaodi's village, where he happened to have a comrade-in-arms working at the local public security bureau.

He and his comrades went to the burning house and carefully walked around it again and again.

"You really doubt a young girl?"

"I'm not that perceptive; it was said by a very, very capable person."

"A very capable person? It's rare to hear you say there are capable people. Don't you think you're the most capable one?"

Zhou Yusheng chuckled.

"No, there are many talented people in the military."

The two continued their investigation and, as they walked, they discovered something unusual. The ignition point was peculiar, and they even seemed to have found a tool to ignite the fire.
