Chapter 168 Waiting for a Rabbit to Fall into a Trap 2

The drawings that Lao Meng made were more like scribbles than drawings. If he hadn't explained what they were, He Caiwei really wouldn't have understood them. Not only would she not understand them, but she couldn't even make any connection to them.

After he explained, He Caiwei realized that the strange drawing he made was actually a map of the Sweetwater Lane that she had been searching for.

"Brother Chen, who taught Lao Meng to paint? It's simply amazing..."

“He’s a little better off with you, at least he’s willing to explain. If it were us, he wouldn’t even bother to explain. And believe it or not, there are actually other people who can understand his scribbles.” Chen Yuanchao suddenly remembered the little girl’s father.

"Who is it? Is it that amazing?" He Caiwei was quite curious; who could understand this thing?

"Your father, in the entire Fierce Tiger Camp, only your father can understand his maps, as well as all those codes he created himself?" Chen Yuanchao thought about it carefully and realized that only Lu Zhiheng could understand them.

Lu Zhiheng's departure was the biggest loss for their Fierce Tiger Battalion, but at that time, Lu Zhiheng's condition made it impossible for him to continue to stay in the army.

The military leaders had no choice but to reluctantly approve his transfer to civilian work.

“They are indeed kindred spirits, while you are all outsiders.” He Caiwei smiled as she looked at the map he had drawn himself based on Lao Meng’s description, confirmed that it was correct, and then handed the map to Lao Meng.

"Hey, the maps you and your father drew are marked the same way. Did your dad teach you?" Xiao Meng took the map and looked at it, finding the drawing style very familiar.

"No, I learned this at school. But I think you can draw something as simple as this just by looking at a picture." He Caiwei used the simplest line drawing, and after adding some house decorations, it became a simple map.

However, this one looks much easier than Lao Meng's. After seeing it many times, it becomes clear at a glance, letting them know where the door is and where the dead end is.

"Old Meng, tomorrow we'll go to the Jade Lion Tower and wait for them to come. You arrange for someone to keep watch outside, while Brother Chen and I will go inside and check. The uncle selling vegetables said he'll be here at 3 o'clock, so make sure you listen carefully." After explaining the situation to him, He Caiwei asked him to send a few more people to cooperate the next day.

I wonder if he brought enough men this time, or if anyone is secretly waiting for orders.

"I understand. There are 15 people here this time, and with you, that makes 16. You two go in, and I'll find two more to keep watch outside. We'll wait for Xiaozhu to come back and hear about his findings before making any further arrangements." Meng Dong took out the list in his hand and scrolled through it, realizing that only 4 people could be selected for tomorrow.

Lu Qingzhu didn't return until after midnight. The temperature difference between day and night was quite large, and she was shivering from the cold when she returned in the early morning, her lips even turning purple from the cold.

He Caiwei quickly poured him a cup of warm water from the spiritual spring, then prepared some food for him before asking Chen Yuanchao to go find Lao Meng.

"Brother, what happened? Why are you so late?" He Caiwei brought her second brother a steaming bowl of soup noodles, hoping it would warm him up quickly.

“That woman is definitely suspicious. At first, she kept taking detours. I was also led around twice before I realized something was wrong. And you know what? She lives very close by, in the alley in front of Sweetwater Alley. Go into the fourth doorway on the left in the alley you found earlier, pass two houses back to back, turn right, and she lives in the sixth house. I observed that there are seven people living there, men and women.”

"I just asked one of the guys on duty over there to keep an eye on things for me before I came back. This temperature is so cold, I almost froze to death. I need to come back and put on some clothes." In Guangcheng, you can wear a short-sleeved shirt and a thin jacket in the morning, a short-sleeved shirt at noon, and at least a thicker jacket in the evening to stay warm, especially after nightfall.

Is there really no place that can achieve three time periods and three seasons?

"Brother, are you going back later? I want to go with you..." He Caiwei wanted to see if she could find any clues among these people.

"Go take a look in a bit, recognize the people, and then leave. Those people have a very keen sense of smell, and I'm afraid if there are too many people, they might come back and get caught." Lu Qingzhu almost got caught twice that night.

Those people were very alert; they had already lowered their breathing to the minimum and dared not stare at one person for too long.

But those people still glanced at his hiding place twice, luckily there were many flower stands around. He hid himself tightly behind the flower stands, and even when they stopped looking in his direction, he dared not breathe too heavily.

"Okay, I'll go with you to see. Are you sure there are seven people? Do you see them standing together?" That's why she was afraid her brother would see people in disguise.

"Yes, there were seven people in the courtyard. They appeared at the same time: four women and three men. But I couldn't tell which one looked more like the person in the photo." Lu Qingzhu felt that all of them looked quite similar. If they walked around and came back, he wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

This completely baffled him, and he even began to doubt whether these people were using their true identities.

“You’re thinking of them using their original appearance. You know, when my dad goes on a mission, he changes his appearance completely. And he changes his face every time he does a mission. Can you take me to see him later…” He Caiwei felt that these people might look a bit out of place in Guangcheng, so changing their faces was necessary.

After all, no matter how people look at it, it seems to have a Japanese pirate vibe; the eyes of the masses are discerning.

Lu Qing and Lu Qingzhu ate noodles and then took two large white steamed buns, preparing to eat them when they got hungry later. The most taboo thing when traveling is to eat food with strong flavors.

You should know that anyone who can be a secret agent must have something special about them in every way, and smelly food can quickly expose you.

"Weiwei, be careful when you go out. Leave after you've identified the people. We have a mission tomorrow, so we can't stay there until dawn. Pay special attention to their appearance." Meng Dong knew the girl had a good eye, so it was easier for her to check if the people were wearing masks than for them.

"I understand, I'll be back soon." He Caiwei nodded. What he wanted to confirm was whether the man the uncle mentioned was also among these 7 people.

If so, then their plan to wait for the rabbit to run into the tree stump has succeeded.

It would be best to wipe them out in one fell swoop, then their mission would be 100% accomplished.

I just don't know what important military matters they can deliver from Guangcheng.

This place is neither a military fortress nor has it been liberated long ago; moreover, it seems to be one of the areas least affected by war.

Why would those people send agents here? Is there some secret base or research institute here that no one else knows about?

As He Caiwei walked, she speculated about what exactly was here that the Japanese pirates would covet.
