Jingcheng Airport.

At noon, Xiong Jiandong took the boarding pass and accompanied Miaoxin to check in her luggage before the security check.

Miao Xin has been practicing swords for many years, and has served as a judge of the national martial arts kendo competition.

But the sword is a murder weapon after all. Even if Miaoxin has a "Sword Certificate", according to the safety regulations of the aviation department, she must separate the human sword when boarding the plane.

So now, the only way to do this is to pack this pair of swords and check them separately at random.

Miaoxin only has such trouble and inconvenience when she takes a plane.

For trains and other means of transportation, as long as Miao Xin shows the "Sword Holding Certificate" and explains her Taoist identity, she will be allowed to carry this pair of mandarin duck swords with her in most cases.

The two of them are going to take a transit flight from Shenzhen today, and hurry up to Huai City.

When Xiong Jiandong and Miaoxin passed the security check and entered the waiting room, they found that the plane of the connecting flight had not yet had time to land.

Just two days ago, when Xiong Jiandong was staying at the Daimaru Hotel in Tokyo, Japan, he risked his life that night, relying on Miao Xin's help, to stuff the button video camera left behind by Captain Kent of the US Army after escaping from the Front Brigade into the window of Lu Zhichao's room, and grasped the sinister conspiracy laid by Lu Zhichao.

It turned out that Lu Zhichao had sent Fan Lizhi as a bait to arrive in Sanya before the end of April to connect with an informant who had been bribed there before to obtain important secrets about the military geography of the South China Sea.

Tan Qidao, who was pursued by Xiong Jiandong all the way from the Middle East to Japan, according to Lu Zhichao's arrangement, also rushed to Sanya during this period to cooperate with Fan Lizhi's intelligence collection.

The arrest of Tan Qidart for interrogation was Xiong Jiandong's long-standing idea of living up to Lin Si'er's trust and trying to obtain the whereabouts of the skull USB disk from him.

After discovering Lu Zhichao's attempt, Xiong Jiandong had the idea of setting off as soon as possible and flying back to China.

And Miao Xin, since she left the Taoist Temple of the Queen Mother of the Snow Mountain in southern Xinjiang, and accompanied Xiong Jiandong for half a month, the two of them designed a front brigade from the Middle East, and finally stole the agreement signed between Huichangyuan and Hulaqide. She also hopes to return to the Queen Mother Pool of the Snow Mountain as soon as possible, and return to Master Ciyi Zhenren and General Secretary Hou of the border army in time.

The next day, the two of them found a Bank of Tokyo, exchanged a check for $100,000 from Hulaqid, and immediately boarded a flight from Tokyo's Haneda Airport to Urumqi in the afternoon. Soon after, he changed to another plane and finally arrived in Kashgar in southern Xinjiang in the evening.

However, when Xiong Jiandong and Miaoxin returned to the Queen Mother Pool of Snow Mountain overnight, they learned that Ciyi was a real person, and she actually left the Yi'an Hall where she retreated and cultivated, and went down the mountain alone to travel for many days.

Ciyi Zhenren was more than 100 years old, and although she was still in good health over the years, and there was not much change from when she was young, Miaoxin was still worried about her master.

After getting in touch with Mr. Hou, who was in the capital, he was also amazed that Master Ciyi could still walk around on her own and leave the Queen Mother Pond of the Snow Mountain.

General Secretary Hou decided that after he planned to get in touch with Director Qiao Zong of the Secret Service, the two listened to Xiong Jiandong and Miao Xin's report on their trip to the Middle East in person.

Previously, General Secretary Hou had been blocking any information about Xiong Jiandong's survival in the battle of Condor Ridge and infiltrating the war-torn Middle East with Miao Xin to Qiao Zong and the Special Intelligence Agency.

However, it happened that Director Qiao Zong was away from Beijing on a business trip at this time.

General Secretary Hou immediately dispatched a military helicopter of the joint logistics unit of the border police theater to send Xiong Jiandong and Miao Xin, who had been in a big circle, back to the Diwobao Airport in Urumqi from the Taoist Temple of the Queen Mother of Snow Mountain.

The two were directly assigned to a flight to the capital that was about to fly to the capital in the name of urgent military affairs by the Joint Logistics Force, without even going through the security check, and sat in first-class seats.

When she left the Taoist Temple of the Queen Mother of Snow Mountain, Miao Xin took her mandarin duck double sword with her, which had been away for many days.

Now that Qiao Zong had left the capital, General Secretary Hou kept his previous promise to Ciyi Zhenren, and planned to wait only for a while later, when he met Qiao Zong one day, and then have a detailed discussion with him about the situation before and after.

Xiong Jiandong and Miaoxin's residence in the capital was arranged by General Secretary Hou to a fairly confidential military hotel, and a grand banquet was held for the two of them to return home safely.

However, being able to accompany him at the dinner table this night is limited to General Secretary Hou alone.

Xiong Jiandong reported in detail to General Secretary Hou the agreement signed between Huichangyuan and Hulaqide, as well as the hidden members and secret contact points developed by the Tuhan terrorist organization in southern Xinjiang.

He also smiled to Mr. Hou that this time he and Miaoxin went to the Middle East with Miaoxin to disguise themselves as Japanese horses Ishikawa Yu and Kasa Meiqun, and they also took the sheep by hand and accidentally got back the $100,000 stolen money paid by Hulaqid.

But about Lu Zhichao sending Fan Lizhi to Sanya to buy information, Xiong Jiandong thought about it again and again, and felt that he could not disclose it to General Secretary Hou for the time being.

Because he was worried that once the military or national security department intervened, he might be able to startle the snake and cut off the clues he had finally found for Tan Qidart.

Xiong Jiandong thought that as long as the time was ripe, he almost had a certain certainty, and it was not too late to make another report.

Mr. Hou expressed his great satisfaction with the rich results achieved by Xiong Jiandong and Miao Xin in their adventure to the Middle East, and praised them for their outstanding achievements in ensuring national security.

At that time, he asked Xiong Jiandong if he had considered whether he should go to Xishan No. 19 and report to the Huang Ying Action Team of the Special Intelligence Bureau that he had not really died in the battle of Condor Ridge.

Before Xiong Jiandong could answer, Miao Xin preemptively preached to General Secretary Hou, she thought that Brother Xiong could not return to the Special Intelligence Bureau of Xishan 19 at the moment.

She said what she thought, this is the plan to go all out and take advantage of the situation, and the next day with Xiong Jiandong, she took a plane to Huai City, and went to the main altar of Shangling Shenzong in Linhuai County, so as to grasp more evidence of Huichangyuan's deception of the sect, and expose all kinds of sins of him and Shangling Shenzong as soon as possible.

Xiong Jiandong has calculated the time, and there are still a few days until the end of April, and it will not delay his schedule to Sanya, so he also agrees with Miaoxin's proposal.

Seeing the positive attitude of the two of them, Mr. Hou immediately agreed, "This is the best!"

He immediately wrote down a warrant and handed it to Xiong Jiandong, ordering him to use the warrant to mobilize local armed police and public security forces at any time to provide assistance if there was an accident or an urgent need in Huaishi.

When General Secretary Hou was leaving, he remembered the $100,000 sum that Xiong Jiandong had just mentioned, and he specially explained that since this money was not due to the state, he now approved the two of them as the direct chief, and had complete discretionary power.

As for how to give full play to the effect of this windfall, Xiong Jiandong and Miaoxin had a whimsical idea and discussed a plan to win the trust of Huichangyuan.

The plan of the two is to rely on the strength of the crowd.

Xiong Jiandong immediately called Second Brother Zhang on Jiuwei Mountain, asked him to rent a tourist bus, and took several other brothers who had been worshiped before, and then joined Zhang Dacheng, Yang Eraunt and a gang, and the beggars scattered all over the capital city, and drove to the main altar of Shangling Shenzong in Linhuai County, Huai City.

At that time, he was flattered by Zhang Dacheng and Aunt Yang successively, and several ridiculous titles such as the beggar head military advisor and the beggar gang king.

Xiong Jiandong and Miaoxin combined, anyway, what they have at hand at the moment is money, which can be regarded as organizing a free vacation trip for those poor people who have been begging for many years, and each person can also be given some compensation for lost work.

Both felt that it seemed absurd to give beggars compensation for lost work, but it was actually reasonable.

……

It wasn't until more than one o'clock in the afternoon that the connecting flight from Shenzhen to Beijing finally landed at the airport, and it will fly to Huai City 40 minutes after landing.

Xiong Jiandong and Miao Xin boarded the plane and found their respective seats.

This is a position of three people per row, and there are already a man and a woman sitting in it.

The woman buried her head in the man's arms and leaned over as if she had fallen asleep. The man was looking out through the window.

When he realized that someone had boarded the plane and would sit down in the vacant seat next to him, the man turned his head and inadvertently glanced at Xiong Jiandong.

Xiong Jiandong waited for the other party to see each other clearly, and his expression suddenly became surprised and confused.

Because he saw it very clearly, this man was none other than Tao Hailiang, who he was quite familiar with.

Immediately, he looked down at the woman who was held in Tao Hailiang's arms.

Although she can't see her appearance, she can be judged from her body shape that she obviously will not be Tao Hailiang's wife, Hong Fang, the female classmate of Hua Nianping and Lin Sier.

"This woman is ......"

Xiong Jiandong frowned, guessing in his heart.

Tao Hailiang obviously observed the suspicion in Xiong Jiandong's eyes, and immediately hid a trace of uneasiness, thinking that this passenger who had just boarded the plane must not be someone who was familiar with his presence in Huai City.

He has only been in office for a few months, unless it is the direct staff around him, as well as the leaders of the Enyuan Group, of course, he will not remember too much about other officials who can be named and are very familiar with him.

But through the local TV news in Huaishi, or in some large-scale events, there are so many people who have seen Tao Hailiang in public that no one can count it.

"I'm sorry, can you call your wife and move this foot in a little bit."

Xiong Jiandong deliberately pointed at the woman's long legs that deviated from the seat, and said to Tao Hailiang.

In fact, his real purpose is to use the excuse to wake up the woman and see her appearance clearly.

When the woman heard the movement, she got out of Tao Hailiang's arms, glared at Xiong Jiandong, and pulled her legs inside.

Xiong Jiandong immediately saw the other party clearly, thinking that his conjecture was right, she was really Qiu Xiangya!

thought at the moment: "After all, it is still the same as I had worried before, Tao Hailiang really betrayed his wife Hong Fang because of Qiu Xiangya." ”

Miaoxin's seat was in the opposite row, and she didn't want Xiong Jiandong to argue with others, so she said, "Or, I'll change positions with Brother Xiong, right?" ”

Xiong Jiandong shook his head at Miao Xin and said, "That's it!" ”

But he was wondering in his heart, why did Tao Hailiang and Qiu Xiangya appear on the flight from Shenzhen?
