Chapter 374 In Beijing, the last person on the list
Reading Settings
The telegram contained only four words: "Return immediately, open the reverse side."
Opening a counterattack is also the beginning of a counter-offensive.
Their decision to stop retreating and dodging marked the beginning of their counterattack.
The older generation always seeks stability and waits for the right opportunity, so before things even break out, they begin to arrange for the younger members of their families to go to the countryside to seek refuge.
But the appearance of Bai Nuo and Fang Meng made them realize one thing: constantly retreating and avoiding would only embolden those people, and if they were to make a wrong move, they might face a life of regret or a life of mediocrity after defeat.
That wasn't what they wanted, so everyone gradually started trying to go back, secretly joining forces to overthrow the mountain weighing on their heads.
For the past two months, Bai Nuo has seemed like an ordinary student, occasionally returning to the bureau to work on urgent cases for a day or two, and occasionally going out shopping, eating, and buying snacks with her roommates, appearing carefree as if she were being pampered at home.
In reality, it was rife with killings and bloodshed.
In two months, they secretly uncovered a list of villains. Some of them were directly targeted and exposed. Faced with irrefutable evidence, those who wanted to protect them dared not even show their faces.
Of these people, only those involved in that aerial battle died tragically on the spot.
In that air battle, not only Bai Yiman was killed, but also seven other airmen. So even though some people suspected it might be malicious retaliation, no one dared to cause trouble for the Bai family.
Although it wasn't out in the open, Bai Nuo had already noticed someone was watching her a month ago, starting with the death of the second person.
Bai Nuo didn't take people seriously at all. If anyone could find evidence against her, she would lose. Bai Nuo continued to live her campus life peacefully, obediently playing the role of a rich family's naive and innocent daughter (according to her roommates).
Unexpectedly, the person who had been targeting her was arrested less than three days later by Qiu Jun and his team, who had come to deliver dumplings to Bai Nuo. The charge was malicious retaliation against a senior technical staff member of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Ministry of Public Security.
I almost got shot as an enemy spy!
From that day on, Bai Nuo realized that no one was watching her anymore. Instead, she learned from Fang Meng that the families of the air force comrades who sacrificed their lives with her mother, all of whom were in Kyoto and had joined the military, were being watched. Some of them were even investigated under various pretexts.
The result was useless; nothing was found. Those cases, like the one in Kaiyuan City, became closed cases.
Today, which happens to be the day of the final exams for the engineering department at Peking University, Bai Nuo finally found the last person on the list who lives in Beijing.
