Chapter 19: Round-up

Lou Lanfeng looked at Su Ting, not knowing what to say for a long time.

Su Ting saw through his thoughts: "If we find him before others, it may be a round-up, and if others find him first, it may be an encirclement!" ”

"Li Liyan also said to take him back as much as possible, the key is that Cheng Tianjiao may not want people to take him back!"

Lou Lanfeng immediately decided: "Okay, let's cooperate!" Let's save his life first! If he lived in the past, as you said, I probably know how to find him. ”

When Su Ting got up to say goodbye, Lou Lanfeng asked her, "Nothing else?" ”

Su Ting gave him a blank look, and when she was about to go out, Lou Lanfeng unceremoniously pinched her full ass.

Lou Lanfeng thought a lot before going to bed, and he began to reflect deeply on the meaning of the existence of the Phoenix Detective, and gradually got rid of the initial blind complaint.

What kind of person or department would do such a thing at great moral and legal risk? It's hard to imagine that this would be an act of the state, but it seems unrealistic to blame a particular bureaucrat. Spanning 30 years, with such a large number of participants, billions or even tens of billions of dollars, and such a level of secrecy that can be achieved by a single or a handful of officials, it is impossible for a single or a handful of officials to do it.

He was once just an ordinary citizen, and everything he had experienced in the past two years had clearly shown him that the world was more than what he had always understood in his eyes or mind, and even after only a few days of actual work, he had already realized that one of his legs had stepped into another strange world.

He couldn't understand Su Ting's behavior, was it a clear violation of the company's rules to spy on the secrets held by Cheng Tianjiao? Loulan Feng can't be sure. If, as she said, Cheng Tianjiao took advantage of her danger two years ago, then Cheng Tianjiao's mental maturity is probably more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

At six o'clock the next morning, the three of them rushed to the airport, ate something casually at the airport, drove the car directly onto the military transport plane, unloaded some goods and refueled in Xi'an on the way, and arrived in Urumqi at more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and the three drove directly to Shihezi.

On the way, Lou Lanfeng asked Xia Xi if the location of the other two groups had also rushed to Shihezi, and Xia Xi said that she didn't know that the action group acted independently of each other.

Su Ting said: "The company knows his background, and will definitely inform other groups, which does not require much complicated analysis, I am afraid that everyone will first think of Shihezi to try their luck, although Xinjiang is very large, other places have little to do with him, where else can he go?" ”

Xia Xi said: "If he wants to escape, he will not be delayed in Shihezi for more than two hours, if he is still here, I am afraid that there will be a fierce battle, so you should be especially careful in your actions." ”

Lou Lanfeng said: "I don't think he will ambush us, he just left the team without permission and did not show hostility. ”

Su Ting asked, "Has he found his equipment?" His documents have been cancelled yesterday, and there are five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry here, and it is impossible to cross the state in Xinjiang with equipment, and even if he does not bring equipment, it is difficult for him to move an inch without legal identity. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and Lou Lanfeng said: "Unless he secretly arrived in Shihezi before the accident, he never left, and the position reported to the company afterwards is fake." ”

Xia Xi said: "It's really fake, it turns out that he really hasn't been to Manchuria." ”

It's only five o'clock in Shihezi, and it won't be dark until eight o'clock in Xinjiang at this time, Lou Lanfeng suggested that he should enter the city after dark, and Cheng Tianjiao's range of activities in Shihezi is also very small, and it is very conspicuous to drive the company's car in, and the other two agreed.

Shihezi is the Gobi Desert out of the city, and although the Hulunbuir grassland belongs to the same desert, in addition to the endless vastness, the scenery will only be similar in winter. The three of them parked their cars on the side of the road and admired the desolate spirit of the desert sunset.

Xia Xi said: "I really like the part of "Star Wars" where Luke Skywalker stands in the desert and watches the sunset, which is almost exactly the same as here! ”

Night is gradually falling, the two women can't resist the urine after the temperature plummets, and they want to find a place to solve it in the Gobi behind the car. ”

The two women gradually walked away, and Lou Lanfeng kicked the accelerator and walked away.

The phone rang frantically, it was undoubtedly from Xia Xi, Lou Lanfeng turned off the volume and threw the phone in the back seat.

He knew that the time was limited, and he passed through the city directly, and the original building of his home no longer existed, Lou Lanfeng found the original primary school with his impression, turned into the path behind the primary school, and the car drove until the end of the road, and when he reached the edge of the Gobi, Lou Lanfeng abandoned the car and moved forward.

The poplar forest of my childhood was crossed by the highway, and only a few trees were scattered on the roadside, as if they were kept as souvenirs. The vast poplar forest in Lou Lanfeng's original memory was so small.

Loulan Feng turned on the flashlight and shone everywhere, the wind blowing from the Gobi became colder and colder, and the few remaining poplar trees were hula-la-la-la-shed.

At this moment, "Smack! With a sound, something hit the trunk of the poplar tree beside him, Lou Lanfeng instinctively shrank his head, and heard someone shouting to him under the roadbed in front of him: "Here! ”

Lou Lanfeng touched it and saw Cheng Tianjiao sitting on a large pile of soil, holding a slingshot in his hand.

He looked haggard, the wind had almost dried him, his hair and clothes were dirty, and he wore an orange road construction vest over his clothes.

He pointed to an iron box thrown under the mound: "I thought I had a good memory, but I still dug three pits to find it, but I didn't expect that after so many years, the rubber band has not rotten." ”

Lou Lanfeng remembered that this was when the school confiscated the slingshot in the third grade of elementary school, and at that time he buried a pair of slingshots and materials that could make two slingshots here.

Cheng Tianjiao continued: "When I woke up, in addition to those things at home, I remembered that I buried a slingshot here, and I always remembered it, and after a few years, I finally made up my mind to dig it out." ”

Lou Lanfeng said: "More than ten years have passed. ”

Cheng Tianjiao jumped off the mound and looked at Lou Lanfeng: "It's only a few years for me, and I woke up six years ago, when I was only ten years old?" I started working for the company at the age of thirteen, am I a child soldier? Now at sixteen, I look older than you. ”

Lou Lanfeng asked him, "Why do you want to say goodbye without saying goodbye?" Do you know that now you break discipline and everyone is looking for you? ”

Cheng Tianjiao shook his head and said: "I'm tired of it, I don't want to go on like this, I used to be like a child who was trafficked, taught and trained, and then went to do a lot of work that I couldn't imagine." I used to be arrogant about my privileges, and I fell in love with the beauties in the company at the beginning of my relationship, and I even quickly forgot about my parents. ”

"They praised me for being decisive and fearless, so I catered to them with more callousness, but it was not in my nature, and when they wanted to give me greater responsibility, I broke down and I ran away!"

"Do you remember the first time we met on Gulangyu Island? I didn't know who you were at the time, but I felt a strong sense of kinship with you, and when I wanted to investigate, the company took the initiative to tell me. After that, I also went to Beijing and secretly visited my mother. ”

Lou Lanfeng interrupted him: "You go back with me, explain everything clearly, if you want to quit, you can bring it up, there is always a proper way, if you go on like this, they will kill you!" ”

Cheng Tianjiao was silent for a while, and finally shook his head: "They can't do anything, the only thing I want is to forget everything that happened later, wake up when I am ten years old, and return to my parents." ”
