Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 340 No one can beat her right now!
That would require an incredible amount of skill.

Cao Lanzhu thought the same way.

It can only be described as a coincidence.

Some people complained about Jiang Lan: "You too, standing so close, it was so exciting just now, it's all because of your shiny forehead."

Jiang Lan ran away, her face flushed with anger.

She didn't even bother with her cousin who came with her.

Little Du Lin was seriously thinking, "This older sister named Lu Qiaoge is amazing. Should I talk to the coach about this?"
If we bring her into the team, we might gain another great player.

Du Lin ignored her cousin who had run away and instead left the compound to go back to the team to find the coach.

Neither of the two people who left the activity room had taken the matter to heart, and they leisurely strolled around the courtyard.

In October, the northern capital is bathed in clear skies and lush greenery, with fiery red leaves.

Just as Grandma Qin said, the temperature was just right, and it was the perfect time.

When the two returned to the Lu family home after their tour, the large living room was quiet.

Qin Hengzhi quietly asked Lu Qiaoge, "Do you want to rest for a bit?"

Lu Qiaoge didn't feel tired and said, "No need."

Qin Hengzhi's eyes lit up: "Then shall I show you around my room?"

Qin Hengzhi's room was also on the second floor.

At the end of the corridor.

The house looked like it had been uninhabited for years.

However, it was still clean and tidy, which showed that Grandma Qin and Aunt Guo cleaned it up regularly.

The bookshelves are filled with books that have been around for a long time, such as "100,000 Whys" and "How the Steel Was Tempered," and there are yellowed posters on the walls.

Qin Hengzhi had obviously not returned for a long time either.

Lu Qiaoge looked at his bookshelf.

It has five floors and is located against the west wall.

There are many books inside.

Qin Hengzhi's gaze, however, fell on a box next to the bookshelf.

Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge, who had also squatted down, said, "I thought this box was in the storage room."

Lu Qiaoge curiously touched it casually and said, "Is this your suitcase?"

Qin Hengzhi nodded: "Yes, it's my childhood treasure chest."

Lu Qiaoge thought that the Qin family must be worried that Qin Hengzhi would have nothing to say to her, so they brought out his childhood treasure chest.

It can be said that they put a lot of thought into it.

Qin Hengzhi opened the box, and Lu Qiaoge glanced inside. It contained all sorts of old-fashioned trinkets: a tin frog, glass marbles, cigarette labels with little figures drawn on them, a comic book with curled edges, and a stack of colorful candy wrappers tied with rubber bands.

Lu Qiaoge didn't laugh, nor did she think that boys couldn't collect candy wrappers.

The box contained not only candy wrappers, but also matchboxes.

This is the happiness of children in this era.

Candy wrappers, in particular, are very difficult to collect.

Xiao Si already has a box of candy wrappers and marbles, which she collected recently.

Before things got better, he only had three candy wrappers and a glass bead.

Qin Hengzhi tidied up the small items inside while talking to Lu Qiaoge.

"Only one of these glass marbles is mine; the rest I won."

Lu Qiaoge imagined it for a moment, then chuckled, "You wouldn't be lying on the ground playing marbles too, would you?"

Then he added, "How about we play a round?"

Qin Hengzhi's voice was tinged with laughter: "Squatting is fine, why lie down? But I'm not playing with you, your ability to hit exactly where you point is too advanced."

Just now in the activity room, seemingly unintentionally, that ping-pong ball actually bounced precisely towards Jiang Lan's forehead. Without a doubt, Jiang Lan must have done something annoying.

Qiao Ge's control over power is unmatched.

I estimate that no one can beat her right now.

If I joined the army, I could definitely become the best soldier!

Lu Qiaoge laughed too, and pinched Qin Hengzhi's cheek with lightning speed, grinning, "What else can I touch and pinch!"

Qin Hengzhi's face flushed red instantly.

This girl is a total hooligan!
She's also a female hooligan who makes people blush and their hearts race!
The two were very close, so close that they could hear each other breathing.

Lu Qiaoge smiled and kissed him again, teasingly saying, "Why are you blushing? Didn't you say I could hit wherever you pointed?"

Qin Hengzhi nervously turned around to look.

The door was open, the corridor was quiet, and no one was walking on the stairs.

His courage suddenly grew, and then his eyes darkened as he leaned in and kissed those red lips that were both lovable and embarrassing.
-
At night, Little Cangcang flew back.

Just then, Lu Qiaoge lay down and saw the little thing return. She gave it some space water and placed it on the table.

Little Cangcang drank it all up.

Lu Qiaoge gave it some food again.

After eating and drinking his fill, Xiao Cangcang said to Lu Qiaoge, "Master, I found Engineer Peng. He came to report the situation to the relevant leaders. He's currently staying at the guesthouse of the oil base office. He met with someone tonight."

Lu Qiaoge praised him for a while, then asked, "What situation did he come to report?"

Xiao Cangcang: [He told that person that Chen Liangsheng's disappearance was definitely not normal, because the two of them had spoken on the phone before he disappeared.]

Lu Qiaoge was stunned.

Are Peng Gong and his former second aunt's husband friends?

Yes, yes, my second aunt's husband worked at the Northern Oil Base back then.

Xiao Cangcang continued: "Little master, I don't quite understand what he said next. It was probably some kind of code. He and that man were also communicating using strange symbols. But in the end, he told that Chen Liangsheng had discovered the secret, and he was definitely going to find the truth and evidence, and he would be searching the world for people."

Therefore, his disappearance is abnormal. Even if he discovered something, he could have sought help from the organization instead of disappearing. So he came to report the situation, and although he found out late, he still hoped that the man would consider their past friendship and launch an investigation.

The man said, "The problem now is, how do we start the investigation? Chen Liangsheng has disappeared, and Lu Yun has been proven dead. What are you going to investigate, and how are you going to investigate?"

Lu Qiaoge got off the bed and stood barefoot on the floor.

There is no moon tonight, it's pitch black, and the streetlights along the road emit a dim yellow glow, like lights in a black ocean.

The next moment, the streetlights went out.

The entire Qin family was plunged into darkness.

Lu Qiaoge touched her slightly aching chest. She thought this matter wouldn't happen so quickly. In recent days, she had rarely thought about the maid from the Sheng family in Nanyang who was suspected to be her second aunt. But now, she suddenly heard her second aunt's name from Xiao Cangcang's retelling.

Lu Yun, that's my second aunt's name.

For some reason, an indescribable feeling suddenly welled up from the bottom of my heart.

It seemed that in the blink of an eye, a blood bond was formed in her.

Second Aunt, if that Nanyang maid really is you, then how did she fall into the sea, and who injured the back of her head?
Why was the message given to the Lu family that he had already sacrificed himself?

How was this sacrifice determined?
She didn't believe that this result could come so easily.

Lu Qiaoge said to Xiao Cangcang, "Rest now. Qin Hengzhi and I will go look up information tomorrow."

Xiao Cangcang said again: "I should have come back earlier, but I went to that man's house again."

He lives in a building in the west of the city, but I don't know where he works. I only know that Engineer Peng calls him Lao Kang...

Lu Qiaoge praised Xiao Cangcang again and told it to find a place to rest.

Little Cangcang turned around and landed on the headboard.

Lu Qiaoge closed her eyes, stopped thinking wildly, and forced herself to fall asleep quickly.

Because there are still many things to do tomorrow!
