Chapter 385: Thank You for the Itch
After making the arrangements, they took their respective teams to carry out the mission.
Gu Jinghe brought Ruan Shaolin to the back door of Xu's house. They both looked up at the wall at the back door at the same time. Then Ruan Shaolin took a few steps back. Gu Jinghe stood at the corner of the wall, made a lunge, crossed his hands with his palms facing up. Then Ruan Shaolin took a running start and stepped on Gu Jinghe's palm with one foot. Gu Jinghe made an upward lifting movement, and Ruan Shaolin easily hooked to the top of the wall. Then he did a handsome somersault and jumped directly off the nearly three-meter-high wall.
The moment Ruan Shaolin climbed in, he opened the door and let Gu Jinghe and the others come in first.
Afterwards, they quickly and quietly tied up all the members of the Xu family who were still asleep, including the servants.
By the time Xu Youwei, Xu Youcai and other younger generations realized something was wrong, it was already too late. The soldiers rushed into the room and tied them up, not giving them any chance to resist.
When the Xu family members were tied up and brought to the living room, everyone else was awake except Xu Zhaohui and Luo Yufeng. From the time the soldiers entered the room to the time they tied them up and brought them out, they were in a sleeping state and did not react at all.
At this moment, the soldiers placed them on the two sons Xu Youwei and Xu Youcai, which was considered as letting them fulfill their filial piety.
See the appearance of Xu Zhaohui and Luo Yufeng.
Ruan Shaolin looked at them left and right and said, "It seems that the rumors are true!" After several elderly people from the Xu and Zhao families were hospitalized, there were rumors that the younger generations of the Xu and Zhao families were too incompetent and had caused their parents to become ill due to overwork. At first they didn't quite believe it, but then someone discovered that since being discharged from the hospital, the elderly from these two families basically never went out.
You know, before this, they often went out together, and would stay out for quite a while.
"What are you doing? This is the Xu family." Xu Youwei, who was still unaware of the situation, looked at the soldiers who suddenly rushed into their house. He knew the leader, the youngest son of the Ruan family, Ruan Shaolin.
"We knew it was the Xu family. If it weren't for the Xu family, we wouldn't have come. Do you think you are still the high and mighty uncle of the Xu family? What a joke. At this time, you still say such things to us. It seems that the outside world's evaluation of you is very correct!" The Xu and Zhao families have always been against the Ruan and Gu families, and the younger generations of the families have always been incompatible.
When they were in school, because Xu Zhen, Ruan Shaohong and Ruan Shaoke were of similar age, they were often compared with each other. Their academic performance in school was compared, and when they grew up, their work was compared. At first, the Xu family thought that the Ruan family would let Ruan Shaohong go into politics, but Ruan Shaohong, who had just graduated from high school, signed up to join the army.
The next year, they thought that Ruan Shaoke would go into politics. After all, Ruan Shaoke was recognized by them as a gentle and elegant young man. Even though he gave people a cold impression on weekdays, his face, which was more beautiful than a woman's, was not a show-off. If such a handsome young man was placed in a group of men like the army, it would be so out of place!
Not only them, but also the old men of the Ruan and Su families thought so. Old man Su once tried to persuade Ruan Shaoke to study medicine with him, but what they didn't expect was that the next day after Ruan Shaoke got his diploma, his eldest brother left a letter for his family and quietly left with his bag. Later, after Ruan Shaoke passed the Air Force test and officially became an air force, he called home.
After them, Xu Xuan, the youngest son of the Xu family, was born in the same year as Ruan Shaolin. Perhaps influenced by his older brothers, Ruan Shaolin was spoiled by his family since he was a child, which cultivated his lawless character. So when he was in school, he would beat Xu Xuan up if he disagreed with him. At the beginning, the Xu family would come to ask for an explanation, but every time, Mr. Ruan would say, "Let the children solve their own problems. Do you think that if the younger ones can't win, the older ones need to come out to help?" Xu Zhaohui would be stumped by Mr. Ruan's words every time.
He once failed to beat old Ruan, then his son failed to beat Ruan Chuanji, and finally, none of his grandsons could compete with the Ruan family kid, which made Xu Zhaohui so angry that he smashed three vases at home. He also said, "If you can beat him, beat him, if you can't, don't provoke him." So after that, Xu Xuan would take a detour when he saw Ruan Shaolin.
"Ruan Shaolin, you are a soldier after all, how can you do something like breaking into someone else's house in the middle of the night!!!" Xu Xuan hadn't seen Ruan Shaolin for several years. After graduation, Ruan Shaolin followed in the footsteps of their brothers and joined the army.
At that time, when the Xu family knew that Ruan Shaolin had also joined the army, they also thought about letting Xu Xuan join the army. However, after seeing that Xu Xuan couldn't carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands, the whole family felt like they had given up.
"Yes, you also know that I am a soldier now. Do you know what it means when a soldier breaks into someone else's house with a team of people? Hmm!" Ruan Shaolin looked at the pleasure of his former defeated opponent when he was defeated by him again. The good mood on the corners of his mouth was not suppressed by AK.
After hearing Ruan Shaolin's words, the Xu family no longer had any anger.
At this time, they also realized that their superiors knew what they had done. Not only did they know, but they also found evidence, otherwise they would not have gone to so much trouble to arrest people.
Seeing that they all looked dejected, Ruan Shaolin and Gu Jinghe felt happy, but it was a pity that the two people who did the wrong thing were still lying on their son and knew nothing.
It’s a pity that I didn’t get to see the frightened faces on their faces after their secrets were exposed.
After Jian Dan reminisced about the past with the Xu family, he left a few soldiers to keep an eye on them while the others turned the Xu family's house upside down.
They first searched every room, not even leaving out a strand of hair that had fallen on the floor.
In Luo Yufeng's and their room, Ruan Shaolin accidentally turned a pen on their bedside table while searching. Normally, no one would think there was anything wrong with a half-broken pen, but Ruan Shaolin just felt itchy and while searching the bedside table, he reached out and turned it around. Then he heard something moving, and when he looked up, he saw that the bed on his right had moved away, and behind the bed, a door as wide as a person was revealed.
"Gu Jinghe, I found it..." Ruan Shaolin happily ran outside to call for help.
At this moment, Gu Jinghe, who was searching the study next door, heard his cousin calling him excitedly and saying that he had found it. He realized that he must have found the secret of the Xu family, so he put down the book in his hand and ran over.
"Come on, look what I found!!!" Seeing Gu Jinghe coming, Ruan Shaolin directly pulled him to the door and looked at him for praise.
"Great!" Knowing his cousin's character, Gu Jinghe gave him a thumbs up perfunctorily, then walked over, opened the door and went in.
Inside is a small collection room, not big, only about 10 square meters, but three walls are lined with cabinets, on which are placed various ancient cultural relics, including many rare pieces.
Looking at the things inside, Ruan Shaolin asked someone to find a few boxes, and then gently put these things in one by one.
Gu Jinghe also found a wooden box from the top cabinet, which was filled with letters exchanged between Luo Yufeng and the enemy country over the past few decades, as well as a seal that symbolized Luo Yufeng's identity.
After searching every corner of the Xu family's house, Gu Jinghe asked them to take back all the Xu family members and the searched items. He held the evidence box and took Ruan Shaolin to the Zhao family not far away.
The Zhao family was just like the Xu family. Everyone was tied up and placed in the living room.
The entire Zhao family was searched from inside to outside, even the courtyard outside. Deng Yi and his team did not spare any of them. They found a lot of antique paintings and calligraphy, gold and silver jewelry, but they did not find any evidence of the Zhao family's collusion with the enemy. Just when they were wondering if the Zhao family had put these things somewhere else, they saw them coming over, and Ruan Shaohong stepped forward and asked, "How is it, what did you find at the Xu family?"
"Of course, I'm an expert in searching." Facing the question from his elder brother, Ruan Shaolin praised himself without hesitation.
Looking at his smug little expression, Ruan Shaohong felt less worried. It seemed that, just as they thought, the Zhao family had put all the evidence in the Xu family.
Seeing Ruan Shaohong, Deng Yi, and Lin Qingyuan all looking worried, Gu Jinghe asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"Nothing much, except these, we didn't find anything else useful from the Zhao family." Deng Yi and Lin Qingyuan also came over at this moment. After hearing Gu Jinghe's question, they looked at the box in his arms and asked, "What's in it?"
"What's in here are all the evidence of the Xu family's collusion with the enemy, as well as the symbol of Luo Yufeng's identity as an S-level spy." As he said that, Gu Jinghe opened the box and showed it to them all.
"Didn't find it? Watch me!!!" Hearing that they didn't find any evidence about the Zhao family, and considering that he had just found evidence about the Xu family because of his itchy hands, at this moment, Ruan Shaolin was full of confidence and walked towards Luo Yufang's room.
Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow. They wanted to see where Ruan Shaolin's confidence came from.
On the way to Luo Yufang's room, looking at his brother who was walking in front of him with his head held high, Ruan Shaohong asked Gu Jinghe, "Did he really find this?" It's not that he didn't believe his brother, it's just that looking at the stupid look in front of him, it's really hard to imagine!
"...Hmm..." Gu Jinghe knew what Ruan Shaohong was thinking. His personality used to be similar to Ruan Shaolin's now. Fortunately, Huo Haocheng has always been by his side. Plus, he has a family now. His doctor Jiang would tell him every day, 'If anything happens to him, don't expect her to mourn for him. She will just remarry with their son, let his son call someone else dad, and let someone else spend his pension with her.'
Now he is really scared, the wife he married with great difficulty is gone just like that, and his son has to call someone else dad. When he thinks of that scene, he feels sad!!!
So, with his constant corrections and Huo Haocheng's encouragement, Gu Jinghe is now the cautious and careful person he is today.
With Gu Jinghe's proof, they could only believe Ruan Shaolin temporarily.
Several people came to Luo Yufang's room and saw that it was in a mess. Clothes, shoes and socks were thrown on the ground. It was obvious that they had searched very carefully before.
I saw Ruan Shaolin standing beside the bed, looking around as if he was looking for something.
The furnishings in Luo Yufang's room are somewhat different from those in Luo Yufeng's room. There is nothing at the head of her bed, but Ruan Shaolin does feel that Luo Yufang and Luo Yufeng are sisters, and they are as close as one person. So when designing the secret compartment, it is impossible that only Luo Yufeng has it and Luo Yufang doesn't.
He looked around the entire room and saw that Deng Yi and his team had already moved all the other things in the room, except for a half-broken pen next to the dressing table, which they had not moved.
Ruan Shaolin walked closer and took a look. He found that this half and the half in Luo Yufeng's room just formed a complete one!
Thinking of this, Ruan Shaolin took control and turned the half-broken pen around.
Then he turned around and looked at the bed behind him.
Just when Ruan Shaohong and the others were wondering what he was looking at, they saw the bed slowly moving.
Looking at the door of the secret compartment exposed in front of them.
At this time, several people gave Ruan Shaolin an expression that said "you are awesome", then pushed open the door and walked in.
Find what you're looking for.
Several people found boxes and packed the things in them. Similarly, they carried the boxes and loaded them into the car and took them back.
Sitting in the car, they didn't understand how Ruan Shaolin discovered that the pen was a mechanism. "Hey, how did you find out?" Who would have thought that such a small piece of pen could be a mechanism.
Speaking of this, Ruan Shaolin touched his nose embarrassedly, then fanned it and said, "Well, I just felt like touching it at the time. There was also a half-broken pen on Luo Yufeng's bedside table. I was squatting and searching, and then I touched it. I felt like touching it, so I pressed the pen and turned it around, and then I heard the sound of the bed moving."
“.....(⊙o⊙)…, this” The people in the car were speechless for a moment when they heard this answer.
"Thank you for your momentary itch." Gu Jinghe witnessed his excitement at that time, so when he saw that everyone didn't know what to say, he pulled Ruan Shaolin's hand and shook it.
Seeing this, the others followed Gu Jinghe's lead and said, "Thank you for your temporary itching!"
“Thanks for the itch!!”
"Good!!!" Ruan Shaohong patted his younger brother's shoulder and spoke earnestly.
Who would have thought that the small pen they ignored was what they had been looking for? Therefore, when doing things, we must not let go of some things that we think are insignificant. Sometimes, details are the key to determining the success or failure of things.
