Li Jie was somewhat surprised when he received the news.
After thinking about it, he felt that it was understandable. Lin Li was famous for his cunning. In the original work, he escaped from the national security police several times.
Although there are some elements of drama, there is no doubt about his personal ability.
If his abilities were not strong enough, he would have died in Southeast Asia long ago. How would he have a chance to return to the other side of the sea alive? How would he have a chance to come to Xiazhou?
In addition to telling Lin Li that Lin Li had run away, Duan Yingjiu also informed Li Jie that they should not meet each other in the near future.
To avoid being discovered by Lin Li who was hiding in the dark.
Lin Li had just arrived in Xiazhou, and he was already being targeted in less than a day. As long as he wasn't stupid, he would definitely be able to detect something.
Therefore, not meeting each other is only the most basic protective measure.
Anyway, communications are now very developed, and Li Jie and Xiazhou Guoan have also established a relationship of trust, so it doesn't matter if they don't meet.
We had kept seeing each other before, mainly for convenience.
The efficiency of telephone and email communication is always not as good as face-to-face communication.
…
…
…
On this day, Li Jie was working on documents that he had accumulated recently in his study.
Hey!
Hey!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the study door.
There are no outsiders at home, and the two children are studying outside, so there will be no one else except Ding Meixi.
"Enter."
Li Jie stopped what he was doing and looked up, only to see Ding Meixi walking in with a plate of cut fruits.
But compared to usual, her face was a little more anxious and a little hesitant.
Seeing the look on Ding Meixi's face, Li Jie immediately understood that the other party had something to say.
Sure enough, Ding Meixi did not leave the study immediately after putting down the fruit, but stood aside silently.
She was waiting for Li Jie to speak first.
Because she knew that if she acted like this, the other party would definitely be able to tell that there was something on her mind. Under normal circumstances, 'Li Tang' would ask her.
"Is something wrong?"
"Um."
Ding Meixi nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "A few days ago, I seemed to see a person at the gate of the community."
"who?"
Li Jie showed a surprised expression at the right time. From the perspective of Ding Meixi and the other side of the sea, he had no idea that Lin Li had come to Xiazhou.
Ding Meixi hesitated for a while, and then whispered two words.
“Hsinchu.”
"He came to Xiazhou?"
Li Jie's expression was a little surprised and a little puzzled.
"Also...maybe I saw it wrong."
Ding Meixi turned to look at Li Jie and replied with an uncertain tone.
"Wait a minute."
Li Jie's expression changed, he got up and went to the study door to confirm whether the study door was locked, and then took out a mobile phone from the safe next to the bookshelf.
Immediately afterwards, he dialed Sun Chuanwu's phone number in front of Ding Meixi.
beep!
beep!
The phone rang a few times before someone hung up. Li Jie calmly walked to the desk and put the phone on the table.
"I'll confirm it now."
Sun Chuanwu did not answer the phone right away, which meant that the other party was temporarily busy. However, as long as it was not a particularly urgent matter, Sun Chuanwu would basically call back in about ten minutes.
Ding Meixi knew this.
At first, she was a little unbelievable when she heard the news.
Who is Sun Chuanwu?
The deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau stomped his feet, and the entire bureau was shocked. He was so special to 'Li Tang'?
Soon, within a few minutes, the cell phone on the table rang.
"Liangxi, you called me suddenly. Did something happen?"
Although Lin Li was not Sun Chuanwu's person, he was still a senior member of the bureau. After Lin Li was out of Guoan's sight, he reported to the bureau as soon as possible.
And he also attached his speculation.
Today was not a day for daily contact, so as soon as he received Li Jie's call, Sun Chuanwu immediately dropped the work at hand and contacted Li Jie.
He was worried that Lin Li's speculation was becoming reality.
No matter which one it was, Sun Chuanwu couldn't accept it.
"No, nothing happened."
Li Jie answered Sun Chuanwu and silently pressed the hands-free button.
"Boss, the main reason I contacted you today is to verify something with you."
"you say."
"Has Hsinchu come to Xiazhou?"
After hearing this question, the other end of the phone was silent for a while. When Sun Chuanwu's voice came out again, his tone also changed, becoming more serious and colder.
"How did you know?"
"It seems that he has really come to Xiazhou."
Li Jie did not answer Sun Chuanwu's question immediately, but said in a positive tone.
After hearing the exchange between Li Jie and Sun Chuanwu with her own ears, Ding Meixi silently widened her eyes.
Is the person opposite really Director Sun?
'Li Tang's' tone and way of communication didn't look like she was talking to a superior on the phone. Anyway, she didn't hear respect from 'Li Tang's' tone.
The communication between the two did not feel like a superior or subordinate at all, but more like a chat between friends.
"Liangxi, how did you know that Lin Li went to Xiazhou?"
On the phone, Sun Chuanwu's tone seemed a little anxious, as if he was eager to verify something.
"Meixi told me. She just told me that she seemed to have seen Hsinchu in front of her house a few days ago."
Upon hearing this explanation, Sun Chuanwu breathed a sigh of relief.
"oh."
Although Sun Chuanwu's reply was only one word, the relaxation in his tone could not be concealed.
Realizing this, Li Jie and Ding Meixi looked at each other silently, with a hint of understanding in their eyes.
Although their eyes look similar, their meanings are completely different.
In fact, Ding Meixi's question was just right today, and Li Jie could use Ding Meixi's words to ask Sun Chuanwu for confirmation.
Then through Sun Chuanwu's response, he analyzed his current situation.
Obviously, Lin Li did escape the tracking of the national security, and he also reported the situation he encountered to his superiors in a timely manner.
In addition, Lin Li's report may have involved himself, and it was negative news.
If this were not the case, given the relationship between him and Sun Chuanwu, the other party would most likely remind him.
Sun Chuanwu didn't take the initiative to remind him. This was partly due to probing reasons and partly due to the basic qualities of an old intelligence officer.
Due to both emotion and reason, Sun Chuanwu could not reveal this part of the information to Li Jie before the matter was confirmed.
Of course, this was before Li Jie took the initiative to ask.
"Liangxi, Hualien is not wrong. Hsinchu has indeed been near your home. However, don't worry, he did not come into contact with Hualien, he just took a look from a distance."
At this moment, the speakerphone of the mobile phone was still on, and Ding Meixi heard these words clearly.
In an instant, an indescribable feeling suddenly arose in her heart.
