Chapter 145 Finding Zheng Xian
Chapter 145 Finding Zheng Xian
7 pm.
Bai Luo spent 200 points to use the location function to pinpoint Zheng Xian's current location.
But when Bai Luo saw where Zheng Xian was now, he was slightly taken aback.
Bai Luo had no idea that Zheng Xian was currently in Yang City.
He thought Zheng Xian was still in Zhengzhou, which surprised Bai Luo, but it also made things more convenient for him.
Bai Luo said something to the silly girl and then walked out of the courtyard.
As soon as Bai Luo stepped onto the street, he noticed that Yang City was bustling with activity that night, with a large number of people on the streets.
And everyone had a smile on their face, and in some places, firecrackers were being set off.
This scene gave Bai Luo a sense of unreality, and she even wondered if she had inexplicably traveled through time again.
It wasn't until Bai Luo listened intently to the gossip of the people around him that he understood the reason.
It turns out that the Blue Party troops have already reached the outskirts of Zhengzhou, besieging all the remaining Japanese soldiers from last night inside the city, and are preparing to retake Zhengzhou soon.
Upon hearing this, Bai Luo's eyes lit up; he was just short of points.
Having made up his mind, Bai Luo was determined to help the Blue Party troops if they dared to attack Zhengzhou.
8 pm.
Bai Luo stopped at the gate of a compound guarded by Blue Party sentries, and turned his head to look at the compound in front of him. This should be the Blue Party's intelligence agency's stronghold.
Through the monitoring radar in his mind, Bai Luo saw many blue party identification marks inside the compound.
Zheng Xian's location was displayed in this courtyard.
Seeing that the two soldiers at the gate had turned their attention to him, Bai Luo quickly left the gate of the compound and went to a small alley across the street to wait for Zheng Xian to come out.
He doesn't want to be in the spotlight right now.
Around 9:30 p.m., Bai Luo, who was getting bored, finally saw a car drive out of the compound.
Bai Luo's spirits lifted; finally, someone came out from inside.
But Bai Luo saw through the car window that it wasn't Zheng Xian inside, and sighed slightly.
He even began to suspect that Zheng Xian might have a dormitory in this courtyard.
But as the car drove out of the Blue Party intelligence agency compound, people began to walk out of the gate one after another.
Bai Luo thought to herself, "It's time to get off work." She looked down at her watch and saw that it was already 9:45 p.m.
So, it turns out that the KMT (Kuomintang) already has people working overtime these days.
Bai Luo silently mourned for Zheng Xian for a second in her heart.
Just as Bai Luo was lost in thought, a familiar figure finally appeared at the courtyard gate. It was Zheng Xian, whom Bai Luo had been waiting for.
However, Bai Luo did not reveal himself. Instead, he followed Zheng Xian 50 meters behind without making a sound. The reason was simple: there were two members of the Blue Party next to Zheng Xian.
Bai Luo followed behind for about half an hour before finally stopping at an intersection.
"Brother Zheng, it's settled then. You must come over in a couple of days."
With one arm in a sling, Li Qi said gratefully.
Xiao Wang, who was standing to the side, chimed in.
These two people were the ones Zheng Xian had covered during the evacuation.
"Okay, I'll definitely be there on time."
Only after hearing Zheng Xian's affirmative words did the two agree to stop.
The three then chatted briefly before parting ways.
Seeing that Zheng Xian was finally alone, Bai Luo quickly emerged from behind and called out softly.
"Brother Zheng."
Zheng Xian, who was about to go home, suddenly heard someone call his name from behind and instinctively turned around.
Seeing a short figure emerge from the alleyway not far behind him, Zheng Xian immediately recognized the person's identity based on their voice and build, even though he couldn't make out their features clearly in the darkness.
"Xiao Luo."
When Zheng Xian confirmed that the person who called out to him was Bai Luo, he was overjoyed. He had been worrying about where to find Bai Luo.
Unexpectedly, Bai Luo took the initiative to come to him.
He thought to himself that this kid was quite resourceful, considering that he didn't get back to Yang City until around 6 p.m.
In just a few hours, the little brat found him.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xian quickly walked to the alley entrance and asked Bai Luo, who was dressed as an ordinary citizen, directly.
"Xiao Luo, when did you get back?"
"Morning."
Bai Luo looked at Zheng Xian with his curly hair and wondered to herself, "Is Brother Zheng so fashionable?" She subconsciously asked the question aloud.
"Brother Zheng, when did you get your hair permed? You have to admit, it looks pretty good."
Zheng Xianxian's face darkened, but after hearing Bai Luo's praise, his mood improved considerably, and he began to explain.
"Hey, I don't have time to get my hair permed. Wasn't I planning to go to Zhengzhou Airport last night?"
Just as I was waiting for you outside the Japanese airport, someone attacked the Japanese airport.
The shells that came at me were incredibly powerful; I got caught in the blast, and my hair got singed.
Bai Luo felt increasingly embarrassed as she listened, realizing that she was the one who had permed Zheng Xian's hair.
"By the way, Xiao Luo, where were you last night? Did you go to the Japanese airport in Zhengzhou? I saw the Japanese airport being bombed and quickly evacuated."
"Huh?... Ah, right. I went, but I got there a little late. When I got there, I found that someone had already blew up the airport. I thought it was you, Brother Zheng, who did it?"
It took Bai Luo less than a second to go from feeling guilty to blatantly lying.
Zheng Xian glanced at Bai Luo suspiciously, feeling that the little brat was trying to fool him.
But he has no evidence.
Seeing Zheng Xian looking at him suspiciously, Bai Luo coughed and changed the subject.
He then revealed the purpose of his visit to Zheng Xian.
"Brother Zheng, can you get in touch with my aunt?"
After hearing Bai Luo's words, Zheng Xian nodded to Bai Luo.
"You want to go back?"
"Um... I'll go back in a while. I just wanted you to let my aunt know I'm safe."
Zheng Xian knew that this kid wouldn't just obediently return to his aunt's side.
But he didn't offer much advice, after all, it's not a bad thing for a boy to venture out into the world, especially since Bai Luo's skills were no worse than his.
"Okay, what message do you want to convey?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Luo decided to send her aunt a photo of herself and Sha Niu.
I glanced down at my watch and realized it was almost 11 o'clock.
"Brother Zheng, how about this, give me an address and I'll come find you tomorrow. Could you please send me a photo and tell Auntie that I'm doing well, and that Silly Girl is doing well too? Tell her not to worry."
Zheng thought for a moment and then said.
"The day after tomorrow, the previous contact point has moved. We'll meet at this alley entrance at this time the day after tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Bai Luo didn't care whether it was a day earlier or later, since he wasn't in a hurry to leave and still had points to earn in Zhengzhou.
Having finished discussing the important matters, Bai Luo thought about the idle chatter he overheard from the people when he went out that evening.
He thought to himself that Zheng Xian must have some definite information here.
"Brother Zheng, is the Blue Party planning to retake Zhengzhou soon? When will they make their move?"
