Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 372 So Cao Jing lied
Song Mancang continued, "A month later, I called Chen Liangsheng again and learned that he had disappeared... For the past three years, I have been thinking about this matter. I wanted to come to Beidu to find Cao Jing because she left with Lu Yun. She is still alive."

He paused, then said in a choked voice, "Company Commander Wu and Chief of Staff Li, they both sacrificed their lives."

"But I remembered Chen Liangsheng's instructions and didn't go. I think he must have contacted Cao Jing to investigate what happened back then, but there probably wasn't any progress. He couldn't wait any longer, so Chen Liangsheng must have gone to Nanyang."

I can assure the leadership that Lu Yun was not in the explosion. She left with Cao Jing. As for whether they separated along the way, you'll have to ask Cao Jing.

Old Shen and the deputy team leader next to him exchanged a glance.

So Cao Jing lied.

She didn't mention it at all.

However, without evidence, Cao Jing's movements are left to her own interpretation.

Perhaps she has no problem at all. Even if they set off together, they might have separated midway due to a mission or other reasons. Therefore, she might say that she doesn't know where Lu Yun is.

But why did she lie?

Or perhaps you've forgotten?
Team Leader Shen thought for a moment and then called Qin Hengzhi.

Qin Hengzhi had just finished showering and was about to rest when he received a call from Beidu.

After Lao Shen finished speaking, Qin Hengzhi said, "Please rest assured, leader, I guarantee that the task will be completed."

Although there are many suspicious points, they are not very useful, but it is still necessary to keep people under surveillance.

Team Leader Shen sighed. If it weren't for Elder Qin's intervention, it really wouldn't have been easy to deal with Cao Jing.

After all, she is Old Cao's daughter.

Qin Hengzhi, accompanied by Squad Leader Duan and a guard, quietly went to the guesthouse.

No need to take any action, just keep an eye on Cao Jing and Lu Yu.

At this moment, Cao Jing and Lu Yu were unaware that they were being monitored.

However, Erque and Sanque, who had just switched shifts with Daque, discovered that Qin Hengzhi had arrived.

Oh my, isn't this the little master's boyfriend?
He runs to his little owner whenever he has a spare moment; he's so clingy.

Erque and Sanque said, "Go tell the young master that his girlfriend has come to the guesthouse with her men, and we don't know what they're up to."

Sanque nodded excitedly: "I'll go right now."

The sound of wings taking flight startled the perceptive Qin Hengzhi.

He looked up at the old pine tree in the yard.

This pine tree is over a hundred years old. It's not a larch, but a Scots pine, the most common type in northern China. Even though winter is fast approaching, its needles haven't fallen, so you can't see what's inside.

Qin Hengzhi calmly withdrew his gaze and said to Squad Leader Duan, "Arrange the personnel, two people per group is fine."

He and another guard will be on duty tonight.

Squad Leader Duan readily agreed.

Qin Hengzhi drove away from the guesthouse.

Lu Qiaoge had finished washing up and was getting ready for bed when Sanque squatted on the windowsill and called to her: "Little master, little master, I have something to tell you..."

Then Lu Qiaoge learned that Qin Hengzhi had sent his men to monitor Cao Jing and Lu Yu.

It was too late to go looking for Qin Hengzhi.

But Lu Qiaoge was able to deduce that there must be evidence in Beidu.

Witness testimony can also be physical evidence.

My second aunt is currently in Jiangcheng.

Now we have to wait for Grandpa Sun to come back and treat Second Aunt's illness, so Second Aunt can't go to Beidu right now. And Cao Jing and Lu Yu happen to be in Jiangcheng.

Lu Qiaoge suspected that a group of people might arrive in Jiangcheng in the next few days. She told Sanque and the others to keep an eye on Cao Jing and Lu Yu.

Flowery Mouse Two and Mouse Two followed Three Sparrows to the guesthouse.

With them around, Lu Qiaoge felt relieved.

After making the arrangements, Lu Qiaoge closed her eyes, and her consciousness sank into the space.

The space remained bright and warm, filled with a pleasing energy that soothes the mind and body.
If you are feeling tired, resting here for 15 minutes will wash away all your fatigue.

Even when it was time to sleep, Lu Qiaoge didn't rush to leave the space. Instead, she took a stroll around inside, then looked at the distant mountains and muttered to herself, "If the space could be upgraded one more level, all my little darlings could come in."

The ones with the strongest desire to enter the space right now are those who are confined to a certain body of water. In fact, before they met her, they were a few free and unrestrained old turtles and big pike.

They used to not care about Little Cangcang, but now they envy Little Cangcang the most, saying that this little thing can do anything, from flying to diving.

Lu Qiaoge stood by the lake. Although it wasn't very big, it was deep enough that two large pike could easily swim in it.

Lu Qiaoge then disappeared into the newly built wooden house.

She placed her hand on the gem she had just acquired, even above the fist-sized diamond, but unfortunately, there was no energy fluctuation.

Lu Qiaoge lowered her hand. If leveling up were that easy, it wouldn't be called a superpower.

Lu Qiaoge placed all the newly acquired treasures on the wooden frame of the wooden house.

Some were placed in boxes, while others were placed directly on wooden shelves.

Lu Qiaoge felt she should give her big wooden house three words: 'Treasure Pavilion'!
She then cleaned the large bookcase she had salvaged from the abandoned church; it was a standard piece of red pine furniture.

The pattern is beautiful, and even after being in the basement for so long, it still has a faint pine scent.

Northerners love this type of wood. The longer it ages, the more beautiful its color becomes. It's also easy to maintain and not delicate. Its price is second only to some people's favorite types of wood, like huanghuali.

For Lu Qiaoge, the most important thing was that the large bookcase was really sturdy. After checking it, she found that it was made entirely by hand without any nails or screws.

Those who know this craft are all veteran carpenters; nowadays people rely more on nails and screws.

Lu Qiaoge moved the large bookcase into her treasure vault.

After happily spinning around for a while, I finally snapped out of my reverie, only to find my little sister already fast asleep.

She closed her eyes and went to sleep.

At this moment, Cao Jing and Lu Yu did not mention Lu Yun, but talked about what happened last night.

Cao Jing frowned: "Why would there be sand in your shoes? Even if we were both sleepwalking, where would we have gone with our shoes on? And when we got up, there was no sand on our feet, right?"

Lu Yu was also completely baffled by what happened last night.

But there are many things that cannot be said at this time, even if there is doubt.

He could only say, "Forget it, let's just consider it an unsolved mystery. After all, neither of us was harmed."

Then he added, "Let's not talk about this so late at night."

Lu Yu glanced at the doorway and the window.

It's already early November. For Jiangcheng, even though it's winter and there hasn't been any snow yet, the weather is already cold, and people won't open their windows casually.

She curled the corners of her lips into a smile. So what if it's supernatural or bizarre? It doesn't really matter.

She asked Cao Jing, "Do you want to stay and keep Lu Yun company, or what are you planning to do?"

Cao Jing said worriedly, "If we go back to Beidu tomorrow, and something really happens to her... we won't be able to react in time."

Lu Yu lowered her voice and deliberately spoke indistinctly, "Even if she realizes it, so what? Just because she remembers doesn't mean she can convict anyone. Does she have any evidence?"
