Qin Ting left the key on the door cabinet and just changed her shoes when her cell phone rang.
"Hey, Miss Qin!" Mr. Su's angry voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
Qin Ting heard the sound and said angrily: "Grandpa Su, where have you been? Didn't you say you were in the apartment just now?"
Su Xiangyang said with a smile: "I just finished talking to you on the phone when I received a call from an old comrade, saying he was coming to pick me up. I didn't have time to tell you and it was Grandpa Su's fault that I made you worry."
Qin Ting was helpless and said with a smile: "What now? Do you want to come back? I will ask Liu Yang to pick you up?"
Su Xiangyang smiled and said: "No, I will be here at noon. If I go back in the evening, I will contact you again."
"good."
Mr. Su then hung up the phone. Qin Ting looked at the hung up phone and found something speechless: Even if she was completely unavailable, Mr. Su could still live a leisurely life. She would have comrades today and tomorrow, and she would not be lonely at all.
Su Xiangyang hung up the phone, and the person sitting opposite him said, "Isn't that the girl you talked to on the phone?"
Su Xiangyang nodded and said: "Yes."
"Haha, I didn't expect that there is an illegitimate daughter in the old Du family. If this matter is revealed, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of excitement." There was a playful smile in the tone of the speaker, and he added
That old face looks a bit like an old naughty boy. This man is Uncle Chen, the janitor of the 23rd Army Office.
Su Xiangyang looked at him and said, "You haven't changed after all these years. Even here, you live a better life than others."
Uncle Chen held up the newspaper, raised it, and said with a smile: "You guys are all too big-hearted. I think the door is pretty good. I see these guys coming in and out every day. They are no worse than us back then. I am still
I like this kind of day.”
Su Xiangyang looked at his smile and said, "It would be best if this is the case."
What I'm afraid of is that this is just a pretense.
Uncle Chen's smile was not strange at all. He looked at Su Xiangyang and said, "You guys are too suspicious. I am a useless old man, just here for fun."
Su Xiangyang looked at the calluses in his hands, shook his head and said: "We say we are suspicious, but it's not because you are the hardest to see through. We are all soldiers from the same batch. We all know everything in our minds. You are the only one, Old Chen.
Ah, you make it difficult for each of us to understand."
Uncle Chen smiled brightly, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be missing. "I'm still the same as before, you just think too much."
"Maybe." Su Xiangyang didn't want to say more on this point. What's true or false is all the capital's business. He just wants to stay in Nanjing for the rest of his life and keep a little peace. "I asked you to help investigate.
Is there any news about the matter?"
Uncle Chen put down the newspaper, glanced at Su Xiangyang, pulled out a document from the table and said, "Read it for yourself."
Seeing that the document he wanted was so casually sandwiched with the newspaper, Su Xiangyang didn't know whether to get angry or curse. He came from Nanjing in person for this confidential file about his granddaughter Su Minyi.
He knew clearly how anxious he was, yet he still talked nonsense with him for a long time. If it weren't for the sake of his old comrade, Su Xiangyang would really like to beat this old man to death.
Seeing Su Xiangyang's anxious look, Uncle Chen smiled and continued to read the newspaper - this old man has nothing to do all day long, just to play with public opinion. Although it is a bit shameless, it is indeed effective, and we can also learn from it.
While Uncle Chen was studying the international situation, Su Xiangyang had a serious look on his face, looking at Su Minyi's file without missing a line. He had been checking this file for three years, but he still couldn't get it because he was beyond his reach.
He didn't want to find his old comrade-in-arms, but now that the case was solved, he finally had a reason to come to the capital justifiably. If he missed this time, it would be difficult to get another chance next time. After all, at his position and age, he could leave him casually
In such a place, it is easy to cause unnecessary trouble.
No one has ever had a fierce fight when they were young, and there are countless people they have offended. Therefore, senior military officers who retire usually do not move across regions casually.
"Why is there a page missing?"
When Uncle Chen heard this, he looked up, then looked back and said, "This is what I got, that's all."
The missing page in Su Minyi's file was the page where she came to the capital to perform a mission before the accident, and it was also the most critical page.
Su Xiangyang looked at Uncle Chen and said, "You didn't do it, did you?"
Uncle Chen didn't even raise his head, but just said: "You are also a person who has been here before. You should know exactly what you should know and what you shouldn't know. You can naturally know what the superiors want you to know; don't go if they don't want you to know.
get to the bottom."
"She is my only granddaughter!"
When Uncle Chen heard this, he raised his head, looked at him, and said thoughtfully: "So what if she is a biological granddaughter? People are already like this, and it has been three years, and you yourself are half in the coffin."
, what can we do if we know?"
Su Xiangyang looked at Uncle Chen, and sat in a chair for a while. All the strength seemed to have been drained from his body. He was old and could never stand up again. Maybe he really should hide in Nanjing forever.
Never come out again.
Uncle Chen looked at his look, took the file in his hand and said, "We are all old comrades, so let's hope for a good death."
Su Xiangyang raised his head and looked at Uncle Chen. After a while, he stood up with a cane and said: "You have been here for so many years, and you can't just die a good death, right?"
Uncle Chen smiled and said nothing.
"Old Chen, among so many brothers, in the end, you are the most capable. The grandson of Lao Xu's family is gone, and I am without my granddaughter, but you are the only one, and everything is fine..." Su Xiangyang said, pushed the door open and went out, but there was no
Say goodbye to Lao Chen.
Uncle Chen looked at his back, still with a smile on his face. When the people left, he took the newspaper again and continued to read. He turned over a page, and a white A4 paper was sandwiched.
reveal.
This is the page missing from Su Minyi’s file!
Uncle Chen picked up the paper, took a look at it, put the page back to its original place, then picked up the documents and old newspapers and left the guard room.
Qin Ting just changed into her home clothes and came out, while He Liuyang had already opened the door and came in to change her shoes.
Qin Ting said: "Shouldn't you go back to the hospital?"
He Liuyang smiled and said: "I told the doctor that my injury is almost healed and I don't need to be hospitalized anymore."
Qin Ting nodded and took a glass of water without saying anything else.
He Liuyang watched her drinking water, walked over, hugged her waist, put his head on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'm thirsty too."
Qin Ting turned her head and was about to speak to stab him, but as soon as she opened her mouth, someone grabbed her mouth. Then, the water in her mouth was directly rolled up by the invading tongue, and washed around.
“What a thirst quencher.”
