The prime location of Beicheng Street, a three-storey small western-style building that combines Chinese and Western styles is where we are going, the car is parked behind the main entrance, Xiao Wu takes us together from bypassing the main entrance, and then enters from the side door, this kind of small western-style building has an important feature in architecture, that is, the garden occupies 40% of the total area of the western-style house, pavilions, flowers and trees, everything.

When the guards saw the token presented by Xiao Wu, they immediately saluted, "Captain Qiao, you're back." ”

Xiao Wu held the chief's shelf and nodded, "I'm back, handsome." ”

"Report, the marshal is in the conference room, you wait, I'll go and report it."

"Well, go ahead."

The three of us sat outside the conference room and waited, probably for more than a minute, when the guard came out again, "Captain Qiao, Sir, please come in." ”

Xiao Wu gave a brief explanation to the two of us, and then followed the guards into the conference room, Xue Wei and I sat in place and waited, waiting, really waiting for an afternoon, more than four hours.

I couldn't go hungry, but no one came to help.

"Zihang, I'm hungry." Xue Wei looked at me pitifully, in fact, I was also hungry.

"Then what to do, I'm hungry too, or you wait here for a while, I'll go find something to eat." I looked around, and there was a carved wooden door at the end of the long hallway, and I didn't know what it was.

"Xue Wei, you sit here and wait for a while, I'll go over there and take a look."

"Don't, I'll go with you, this house looks so gloomy." Xue Wei looked around.

I said, "Okay, let's be light, don't alarm anyone." ”

Smelling the smell of cake in the hallway, the two of us did find a room, but this room was not a kitchen, but a well-decorated bedroom, with a piece of cake on the coffee table, and the fragrance wafted from here.

"It should be delicious to look at." Xue Wei licked her lips, as if she had already eaten in her mouth.

Actually, I'm hungry too, "It should be delicious, there's no one here, or let's go over and eat some." ”

Xue Wei couldn't bear it anymore, pushed open the door and walked in, no matter what knives and forks, she ate directly with her hands.

"I'm full of food and drink." I asked.

Xue Wei licked her lips, "It's delicious." ”

"Of course it's delicious, the best pastry chef in France specially made it, a hundred pieces of cake each."

A bejeweled lady is slowly walking towards this side, with a graceful figure and a beautiful face.

The maid behind her is also bright-eyed and white-looking.

When she walked in, she would sit directly on the sofa, and the maid next to her hurriedly fanned her.

"Who are you here, I don't seem to know you, what are you doing in my room?"

I smiled embarrassedly and said, "If I say that I came to you to eat this cake, would you believe it?" ”

The lady pursed her lips and smiled, "I believe it." ”

"You believe it?"

"yes, are you full?"

Xue Wei looked at me, I looked at him, and we both shook our heads at the same time, "No." ”

The lady smiled when she heard this, and ordered, "Peach, go and tell the kitchen to make something delicious, and send it to my room." ”

The maid beside her immediately answered, and then went to the kitchen to order.

The lady looked us up and down, and then said, "I'm the third aunt, so you can just call me the third lady, you two, are you a couple?" ”

Xue Wei nodded, "Yes, but not married yet." ”

The third aunt looked at me too much, "The young man has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but he has a good face, girl, who else is there in the family." ”

Xue Wei said while eating the cake: "There are a lot of people in my family, and there are mountains and fields all over the country. ”

"Mountains all over the wilderness?"

I quickly explained: "Yes, our hometown is in the mountains, and the wild animals all over the mountains can be regarded as our relatives, and that, the human relatives are gone, and only the two of us are left." ”

The third aunt nodded slightly, at this time, the meal had already come, and I thought I was not very picky about what to eat, but the so-called delicious food in front of me really made me dare not swallow it.

A total of four plates of guesses, three are raw, one is hot dish or roasted sweet potato, which makes it hard for me to think about a handsome aunt's wife, the delicious thing in her mouth is actually this.

The third aunt greeted us very warmly, "Come on, come on, eat quickly, these are all good things." ”

I smiled in my heart, "Third lady, that's the case, we're not hungry." ”

The third lady seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for us, sitting on the sofa and laughing, "Why aren't you hungry, weren't you still hungry just now?" ”

Xue Wei pursed her lips and whispered, "This is not for people to eat at all." ”

The third aunt laughed a few times when she heard this, and then waved her hand to let the people withdraw these, and then said, "Since you are not hungry, then don't eat, have a cup of tea, and chat with me." ”

At this moment, I already felt something was wrong, sat down and looked at the third lady, and said, "Is there something wrong with the third lady testing us like this?" ”

"Straight to the point, I like young people with such personalities, since you asked, then I might as well say it directly, just now it means that the handsome is the meaning, you follow Captain Qiao back, you must be a friend of Captain Qiao, I want to ask you, what people have Captain Qiao met along the way."

"No, we walked very carefully along the way, and no one paid attention to us."

The third lady was full of disbelief and said, "Really? Then why was the commander assassinated as soon as you entered the city, don't tell me that this is a coincidence, or some other reason, I won't believe it. ”

I pulled Xue Wei to stand up and said, "Thank you for the hospitality, it's time for us to leave." ”

Experience has taught me that Xiao Wu may have been detained, so I have to get out as soon as possible.

The third lady stood up, and with a wave of her hand, several people in military uniforms immediately rushed out, their guns pointed at us, "Don't go, stay here tonight." ”

Stay.

The night, the night is dark and the wind is high and the night kills people, I feel terrible when I think about it, but there is no room for refusal, let it be fate, because I know that at this moment, as long as I move, I will definitely die.

Xue Wei looked at me, and I could only nod at her as a sign of comfort.

"Let's go, I'll give you a night and think about it."

Helplessly, Xue Wei and I were imprisoned in a room on the second floor, which was well equipped, but it was good.

For the rest of the night, Xue Wei and I didn't speak, because we knew that a listening system had been installed in this room, so we chose not to communicate for the sake of insurance.

The next morning, the third lady came here again, and when she saw the two of us with tired faces, she smiled slightly, "How are you thinking, have you remembered anything?" ”

I yawned and said, "I haven't slept all night, I've thought about it all night, and I really haven't come up with anything." ”

"Really? It seems that two people are together, it will affect you, come and take this girl away, you continue to stay here and think, you can't think of it, this girl can't come back. ”
