Chapter 66: The Visit to Yi Hua University (Three)
The police soon arrived at our residence hotel and after a round of questioning, they really left five people to protect us.
I and Bai Feng, Du Yifei stayed in the room and didn't dare to go out. We also informed Sun Xiaoyi who was still in her own room to come over to our room together to accept police protection. As for Wang Huaming, because he was sent by Bai Feng to buy water, he is still inside Yi Hua University now. When I called him, he hadn't returned to the hotel yet. So I told him not to return temporarily, just in case.
The TV in the hotel is currently live broadcasting the bombing incident at Yihua University. I watched for a while and saw that the bomb disposal expert had successfully disarmed the C4 explosive hidden in the oil-fried shrimp, so I felt relieved.
Bai Feng was also staring at the TV, and at this moment, she quietly let out a sigh of relief and said to me: "Jin Cang, I think it's not good for us to always wait for others to come to our door. Why don't we go out now and lure those who want to kill you over? What do you think?"
I swallowed hard and said, "Isn't it too dangerous? I'm really getting a little scared. If they shoot me in the head with one bullet, won't I die for nothing?"
Bai Feng said disdainfully: "With your little courage, you really don't seem like someone who took something from the Wanlong Association! Forget it, let's just pretend I didn't say anything earlier. We'll just wait and see."
Du Yifei spoke up for me: "How can you talk like that? Jin Cang is not a timid person, he... he just doesn't want to make unnecessary sacrifices."
Bai Feng coldly laughed and didn't say another word. But Sun Xiao Yi spoke up: "I think Fei Fei is right, if Jin Cang goes out now, it's likely to be very dangerous. Those people won't show any mercy, they might really kill him...it's too dangerous."
I nodded seriously: "Anyway, there are a few police officers protecting us now, I think we won't be in danger for the time being, so let's just wait a bit longer. However, I have a suggestion, we can't just sit here and do nothing, everyone should think of ways to shorten our waiting time as much as possible. We originally planned to finalize the joint party with Yi Hua University today, so we still need to try our best to complete this task."
Bai Feng said coldly, "What's there to discuss? It's clear that the people from Yi Hua University have sold us out. What's there to talk about? In my opinion, as soon as we get the chance, we should hurry up and leave Beijing."
I shook my head: "It can't be said like that, after all, we still can't confirm that it was someone from Yi Hua University who betrayed us. Many people know that we came here, and it's not ruled out that someone else informed Wan Longhui..."
Du Yifei hastily said: "Exactly. It's possible that you, Bai Feng, betrayed us and are still pretending to be innocent here."
Bai Feng suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Du Yifei, stop talking nonsense here. If I wanted to deal with you few people, you would have died eight hundred times ago. Do you still need to wait until now?"
"Hurry up and stop quarreling," I urged. "Calm down, we still need to think of a way to deal with those people outside, how can we afford to be in disarray among ourselves?"
Sun Xiao Yi also said: "Jin Cang is right, we can't fight among ourselves anymore, we need to unite and think of a way to get through the current difficulties together."
Bai Feng glanced at Du Yifei, gritted her teeth and sat down, not saying another word. Du Yifei also gave Bai Feng a glance, looking displeased as she sat down beside Sun Xiao Yi.
I let out a quiet sigh and said, "Judging from the current situation, I think there aren't many people who came to kill me this time. If my guess is correct, it's probably just a few individuals. So, I believe they won't be able to find our residence easily in a short period of time, and we are still safe for now."
Sun Xiaoyi nodded: "But I think it's not very safe to stay here all the time, we have to think of a way to leave here as soon as possible."
I thought for a moment: "We can't completely rule out the possibility of them finding us now, after all, they were just able to accurately find me in the second floor cafeteria of Plan University and even sent me a plate of C4 explosives hidden in the oil-braised shrimp. My point is, let's temporarily stay here for now, then hurry up and think of a way, after we've settled the joint party with Yi Hua University, we'll leave here and go back to school."
Sun Xiao Yi frowned and said: "There's no need to rush when it comes to discussing the reunion, we can just talk about it over the phone later. The top priority is to safely leave this place, other things can be thought about later."
I was just about to agree with Sun Xiao Yi when I heard one of the police officers who were protecting us whisper, "Don't make a sound, someone is coming over and they look suspicious."
So the four of us quickly crouched down, I also took out my pistol, ready to engage in a battle with the people who came to attack us.
The police were very interested in the gun I pulled out and kept glancing over at it from time to time. I explained softly, "I have a permit for this, it's legal."
The police officer smiled slightly, nodded his head, indicating that he understood. Then he focused again to prepare for the personnel coming up the stairs.
I heard footsteps outside the door, but it was clear that these footsteps were made by a woman's high heels. This made me somewhat curious - could it be that this time, the only person who came to kill me was that female servant who had delivered food to me?
As the footsteps drew closer, I and several police officers began to tense up, fearing that if we weren't careful, the enemy would burst in through the door and catch us off guard.
But just as we were all on high alert, we heard a knock at the door, and a very pleasant voice came through: "Jin Cang, are you in there?"
As soon as I heard this voice, I was overjoyed and rushed over to open the door. "How is it you?" I exclaimed in surprise.
The person who came was none other than Chen Jing, the one I had a crush on. Chen Jing smiled slightly and said: "Wasn't it you who called Sun Heng and told him that you're in great danger and need someone to protect you? Sun Heng is busy right now, so I came over."
I exclaimed excitedly: "That's great, you come over and I'll be at ease... no, happy... hehe..."
Chen Jing's face turned cold and she stopped paying attention to me, walking into the room. She was wearing high heels, looking very much like a mature woman, which attracted even more attention.
Even those five policemen were staring at Chen Jing with a somewhat dazed expression.
Du Yifei and Sun Xiaoyi looked at Chen Jing's eyes with some strangeness, but Bai Feng was tense for a moment, then quickly calmed down, looking at Chen Jing and smiling: "Thank you for coming to protect us!"
Chen Jing looked at Bai Feng and smiled, "You're Bai Feng, right? I've heard Sun Heng mention you before. It's me who should be thanking you, if it wasn't for you, Jin Cang might not have returned to the hotel so smoothly today."
Bai Feng smiled slightly: "Don't be polite, I also thought of a way out for myself to escape danger."
Chen Jing smiled, with a very gentle look: "Then I should thank you too. If it weren't for you, Jin Cang would be in danger alone. By the way, I came over this time to take you guys to our place to stay temporarily. Do you know if you can leave here immediately with me now?"
"I quickly said: 'Okay, we can leave right away.'"
No sooner had I finished speaking than Du Yifei said: "Not yet. We have a lot of things to pack, at least... we can't leave until half an hour later."
I frowned and glanced at Du Yifei, just about to speak, when Chen Jing said: "The luggage will be taken care of by our people later, you just need to follow me and leave."
Du Yifei opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything. Sun Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Then we'll trouble you, we can follow you now."
Chen Jing smiled and glanced at Sun Xiao Yi before turning to me and saying: "Jin Cang, is this your... friend?"
Before I could even speak up, Sun XiaoYi herself said: "I am his teacher and also the team leader for this visit to YiHua University. My name is Sun XiaoYi."
Chen Jing still smiled: "It turned out to be Teacher Sun. Teacher Sun is so beautiful and young, I thought you were a friend of Jin Cang's. Sorry, I misunderstood."
Sun Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Nothing, thank you for complimenting me on my looks. Actually, you're even more beautiful than I am... To be honest, you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. May I ask boldly: I don't know if you are the Chen Jing that our Jin Cang has been thinking about all along?"
Chen Jing's face turned slightly red, and she shook her head naturally: "No. I have a boyfriend, who Jin Cang likes, I don't know."
Sun Xiao Yi said "oh" and looked at me with some embarrassment, then said: "I made a mistake, sorry about that. Let's set off now and get to a safe place as soon as possible, just in case something unexpected happens."
"But I thought of Wang Huaming who hadn't returned to the hotel yet: 'What about Wang Huaming? He hasn't returned to the hotel yet, should we wait for him a bit?'"
Chen Jing said coldly: "No need to wait, our people will go find him, just give me his phone number."
Chen Jing finished speaking and turned around to be the first one out. So we all followed her, left the hotel, and prepared to temporarily take refuge at Old Chen's place.
At this time, Old Chen's phone call came over. After I answered it, I heard Old Chen say: "Jin Cang, you've come to Beijing and didn't even come back to see me? My granddaughter is really missing you. As soon as I mentioned that you were coming, she immediately went to pick you up. How was it? Have you met yet? Remember, don't make my granddaughter angry!"
I smiled wryly and said: "We just met, but it seems that what you said about me is somewhat inconsistent, and there are many big inconsistencies..."
"Old Chen smiled awkwardly: 'You don't know how to maintain the dignity of an old man's family, this is not good. My granddaughter has that temper, you're not unaware of it, just humor her a bit more and she'll eventually be moved by you.'"
I smiled wryly and said, "Let's hope so. Did you find me for something? The people who attacked me this time should still be from the Wanlong Society, but I'm not sure how many of them came. Do you think we should send someone to thoroughly investigate?"
Getting down to business, Old Chen immediately became serious: "I've already sent someone to investigate, so you can rest assured. By the way, Sun Heng just called me and said that he caught a member of the Wanlong Society, and it's been initially confirmed that the people who attacked you this time are not from the Wanlong Society, but rather from an organization called Longbang."
"I was surprised: 'Dragon Gang? I've never heard of it, what kind of organization is that? Is it also a terrorist organization?'"
Chen Lao said, "It should be a terrorist organization. We don't have many leads yet, but we know that the Dragon Gang sent 14 people this time to catch you and find some kind of secret file on your body. As for the rest, we still don't know much. The person Sun Heng caught was just a small role player and didn't know much either."
I remembered the disk containing the genetic warrior files that Bai Xin had mentioned, and I secretly cursed: What if this Dragon Gang knows about the genetic warriors? Wouldn't other terrorist organizations also know about it? In that case, from now on, I'll be in danger everywhere I go, and every step will be difficult to take.
"Chen Lao also thought of this: 'I know you're in danger now, so I had Chen Jing come pick you up and bring you here. I plan to have you stay with us for a long time, be prepared.'"
I knew Mr. Chen was thinking of my safety, so I said: "I'm mentally prepared, everything will be arranged according to your plan. My classmates and teachers will trouble you to arrange for someone to send them back, please ensure their safety. As for Bai Feng, I believe you also know her identity now, I plan to take her with me to your place, do you think it's suitable?"
Chen Lao smiled and said: "Let's do it this way. Jin Cang, among your friends, isn't there someone named Bai Xin? That is, the mother of Bai Feng."
I was taken aback, and then I came clean: "There is such a person, but she's not my friend. She's from the Wanlong Society, and more than once she tried to kill me. If it wasn't for me having a clear talk with her, who knows if she'd still be after me now? How did you bring her up?"
"Wait until you arrive and we'll discuss this in person. For now, just follow Chen Jing over here as quickly as possible."
I responded with a sound, took a look at Chen Jing and the others who were still waiting for me, smiled and said: "Teacher Sun, Fei Fei, you call Wang Huaming and head back to school first. I'll go with Bai Feng and Chen Jing to Old Man Chen's place."
"I'm not leaving, I want to be with you."
Sun Xiao Yi also said strangely: "Didn't we say we were going to Chen Jing's place together, why did you let us go back to school first?"
I knew Du Yifei was worried about leaving me alone here, so I could only say: "Old Chen - that is Chen Jing's grandfather, just called me and asked us to follow the arrangement. Now I'm also half a soldier, I have to listen to the commander's orders. Feifei, you go back to school with Teacher Sun first, I might need to stay here for a while. Don't worry, there are troops around me, my safety is guaranteed."
Du Yifei pouted and said: "Then I'm still worried, although your ears are safe now, but isn't Chen Jing still by your side?"
I was taken aback and couldn't help but glance at Chen Jing, afraid that she would get angry. But Chen Jing remained calm and serene, as if she hadn't heard Du Yifei's words.
Xiao Yi seemed to have understood something, and smiled: "Fei Fei, why don't you just follow us back to school? We're leaving, Jin Cang is here, it's relatively safer. Besides, the troops aren't just open to anyone, we don't have the qualifications to go there yet."
Du Yifei glanced at Sun Xiao Yi, shook his head and didn't speak, but still had a look of discontent on his face. I could only say again: "I'll call you, just go back and rest assured, once I'm sure it's safe, I'll come to school to find you."
Du Yifei nodded and said in a low voice: "Alright, I'll go back first. Remember, if you don't call me, I'll come find you right away."
I could only nod in agreement, then looked at Chen Jing, hoping she would soon let someone come over to take Du Yifei and the others to the station.
I don't dislike Du Yifei and them, but I'm worried that the longer they stay here, the more dangerous it will be. It would be better if they left earlier.
Chen Jing quickly contacted their people and then said to me: "Wait a few minutes and someone will come over to take them to the airport."
I was shocked and thought to myself: "The airport? Is it really worth wasting money like this?"
Chen Jing seemed to have seen through my thoughts and said very naturally: "Taking a plane is the safest, currently there hasn't been any **** that can carry out terrorist activities on planes in our country."
I nodded: "Then let's take a plane. By the way, did you come alone this time? Why didn't I see anyone else coming with you?"
Chen Jing glanced at the square outside the hotel and pointed to a military vehicle parked on the square: "They don't want to see you, so they didn't get off." After a pause: "I'll go over there and let them take your teacher and classmates to the airport. Waiting any longer will waste too much time."
I took a glance at Du Yifei, who still looked reluctant, and walked over to whisper: "After you return to school, remember to take care of my sister Dongfang Yu for me. She's alone in school, although Hui Jie is taking care of her, but I'm still not quite at ease."
Du Yifei nodded slightly: "I will. Don't worry."
At this time, Sun Xiao Yi suddenly said: "There is still some time, why don't we go collect our luggage now, so as not to trouble others."
So Du Yifei and Sun Xiaoyi immediately took action, running back to the hotel to get their luggage. I was worried that they were moving too slowly, so I followed them to help with packing.
Before long, we finished packing and as soon as we left the hotel, we saw Chen Jing waiting for us. Bai Feng came forward to help me carry a suitcase and walked towards a car parked on the side, saying: "Fei Fei and the others will take this car to the airport, Chen Jing has arranged everything."
I beckoned to Du Yifei and the others to get on the car, and after their car slowly drove away, I turned back to Bai Feng and said: "Old Chen wants you and me to go there together, do you think that's okay?"
Bai Feng nodded: "I've already heard what you said on the phone, I have no opinion. However, if they try to harm me, I'll have to resist, and I hope you can understand that."
I frowned and said, "It shouldn't be, Chen Lao isn't that kind of person."
"Come on, what's taking so long? Let's get on the bus and go, we've already been delayed for a while."
So I and Bai Feng didn't say much more, and we quickly got on the bus.
All the way we didn't say a word, even the driver and Chen Jing in the front row didn't say a single word.
When they arrived at the underground parking lot of the building where Old Chen was, Chen Jing said: "You go see Old Chen directly, I still have something to do, so I won't go up with you."
I nodded slightly, gesturing for Bai Feng to follow me out of the car and up the stairs, directly to Old Chen's office.
Mr. Chen seemed to be waiting for us, and was sitting in the office drinking tea at this moment. As soon as he saw us, he smiled: "Finally arrived, I've been waiting for a long time. Sit down, don't be polite, just make yourself at home."
I saw Old Man Chen being so polite, and for no reason, my heart moved, secretly thinking: won't there be some difficult task that he wants me to do again, that's why he's being so polite? Last time when he wanted me to pursue Chen Jing, he was also very polite. As a result, I found out that pursuing Chen Jing is even more difficult than climbing to the sky, she simply doesn't care about me at all.
This time Old Man Chen had a smiling face again, looking kind and gentle, I don't know if there's another difficult task for me to handle.
My idea was soon confirmed. Old Chen waited for Bai Feng and me to sit down, then immediately said: "You know about the Gene Warriors?"
My heart went "thud" and I thought "this is bad", but all I could do was tell the truth: "I've heard of it, but I don't know the specifics."
Chen Lao nodded and looked at Bai Feng with a smile, saying: "Bai Feng, you should know more than Jin Cang, shouldn't you?"
Bai Feng hesitated for a moment before saying: "I do know some things, but not much. And I'm from the Wan Long Society, I don't have to tell you everything I know."
Chen Lao still smiled and said: "I didn't mean to force you either. You are a friend of Jin Cang, I won't force you, so don't worry."
Bai Feng gritted her teeth and looked at me for a moment before falling silent again.
