Chapter 277: Chapter 277: Operation Swallow Shark Chapter 277: Chapter 277: Operation Swallow Shark Having said that, Qin Yize wasn’t prepared to discuss this topic any further.
He rested his hand on his forehead and leaned back on the sofa, lazily stretching out his two long legs, and asked Gu Qiaoqiao, “We’re leaving the day after tomorrow, have you packed everything?”
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, “Yeah, I’ve packed everything.” After thinking for a bit, she added, “We’re taking the train, what about Luh Fei?”
The train tickets had already been purchased.
The Old Patriarch was elderly, so it was obviously unrealistic for him to travel by jeep.
Therefore, all the lower berths were bought for this trip, which included the Old Patriarch and Uncle Gu, as well as Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize, making a group of four.
Actually, Qin Yize should have returned to the base with Luh Fei, but naturally, he couldn’t rest easy leaving Gu Qiaoqiao with the two old men.
“Luh Fei and another team member will drive back,” he said.
As the two of them talked sporadically, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly realized with surprise that Qin Yize, with his hand on his forehead and body slightly turned, had fallen asleep.
He must have been very tired.
Gu Qiaoqiao quietly stood up, turned down the fan nearby, really wanted to wake him up, but seeing how Qin Yize was breathing softly, she closed her mouth.
Afterward, she tiptoed outside.
Standing in the yard, Gu Qiaoqiao realized that she hadn’t seen her neighbor Bai Yun since that one time, and before she knew it, so many days had passed.
She stretched lazily, went back inside to grab her shoulder bag, and went out to buy a gift for Du Shuang.
Living two lifetimes with different experiences, she had become good friends with Du Shuang, found her enemies from a past life, and relatives in this one.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s steps were light; she was filled with anticipation for the future.
At this very moment, in a flat housing area in the northern part of the Imperial Capital, this place belonged to the outskirts of the city, not yet slated for planning and development.
Compared to the bustling city center, it was a world apart.
An area known for being dirty and chaotic.
Lin Qinghuan, wearing a mask and sunglasses, arrived here.
The driver parked the car by the side of the road, and she got out and walked into the alley.
Pushing open a door, she saw a girl curling up in a corner of the yard, about fourteen or fifteen years old, quite pretty, with faint traces of Wang Xiu in her brows.
Her eyes were wet with tears, and also red, as if she had just cried.
She looked both panicked and helpless.
Lin Qinghuan squatted down, her eyes flashing fiercely.
All because of that idiot Wang Xiu, and because of the burden before her.
If it weren’t for this girl, how could she have lost two of her capable subordinates?
He had once saved her life during a mission.
Here in the Imperial Capital, under her protection, Scar Two could have lived well. She had only sent him along this time to keep an eye on Alina.
But she hadn’t expected that Qin Yize would also be at the scene.
He recognized Scar Two, so when Scar Two realized he couldn’t escape, he decided to take some others down with him before dying.
Unexpectedly, he was the one to lose his life first.
And she knew the atmosphere in the Imperial Capital was tense at the moment.
The “Shark Swallowing” operation had just begun but had to be stopped temporarily on the secret order of the deputy commander.
She still didn’t know who the deputy commander was.
But she knew that person was not only ruthless but also harbored great ambition.
Now she faced another problem.
The police were also looking for her.
She only knew this child was hidden here by Wang Xiu upon receiving a secret order from the deputy commander.
According to her temperament, she would prefer to simply kill the girl and be done with it.
But then, she worried about what her subordinates might think.
