Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Chapter 369 Height-Increasing Insoles

After a round of interrogation, Li Qingchi still failed to find out who installed the bug in his study.

Was it done by someone outside?

Li Qingchi doesn't think so.

The signal receiving range of the bug is limited, so the person who placed the bug would not be outside the Li family, and it is very likely that he is someone in the mansion.

With this in mind, the newly recruited guard became the biggest suspect.

The bug only appeared after they entered the Li family, so there's no guarantee that it wasn't done by one of them.

Of course, in addition to the newcomers, the old guards cannot be completely excluded.

Li Qingchi knew about the existence of human skin masks, and who knows, someone might have disguised himself and sneaked into the guard team.

In order to confirm this, Li Qingchi immediately ordered a facial check of all the guards, leaving no room for any slight flaws.

Soon, all the guards of the Li family received a notice and gathered at the martial arts training ground.

"Dead, dead, dead. They've started checking the guards. How about we run? As long as there is life, there is hope."

When Zhang Dingkai first received the news, he almost ran all the way to find Hua Xi to discuss countermeasures.

In contrast, Hua Xi acted very calm.

Seeing Zhang Dingkai's panic, she was even a little confused.

“Is your face real?” she asked.

"Of course it's real. No one in the Li family knows me, so why would I bother changing my face to a fake one?"

Zhang Dingkai was almost dying of anxiety and kept waving his hands.

It's already this time, and you're still talking about all this nonsense.

Hua Xi: "Then what are you afraid of? Your identity is fine, and you didn't plant the bug. As long as you stay calm, nothing will happen."

Zhang Dingkai's eyes widened, as if he had been enlightened. "You're right. Why should I panic?"

Although he knew that he was most likely safe, Zhang Dingkai still couldn't let go of his worry.

After spending these few days together, Zhang Dingkai had already regarded Hua Xi as a revolutionary comrade.

He is a very loyal person. He will never sit idly by when his comrades are in trouble.

"Then what are you going to do? It's still not too late to leave now." Zhang Dingkai looked at Hua Xi with concern.

He picked up his uniform cap from beside the chair and slowly put it on his head. He looked very determined, "I won't leave. Since Li Qingchi wants to investigate, let him investigate. Some things should come to light."

Zhang Dingkai understood, "Are you planning to confront Li Qingchi?"

Hua Xi did not comment.

……

Except for the guards who were away on missions and could not return, the rest of the guards had gathered in the training grounds.

Guards of different levels stood in their own squadrons, and senior guards stood separately from the old and new guards, because this time the focus was on checking the new guards.

Li Qingchi did not attend the inspection in person, but instead handed the responsibility over to his grandson Li Zhouyang, asking him to supervise the inspection.

In fact, Li Zhouyang was not very willing when he received this task.

On the one hand, he thought it was an exaggeration, but on the other hand, he discovered that his grandfather really liked to ask him to do things.

Even though he has so many grandchildren, he always comes to him when he has something to do.

This made him wonder if his grandfather disliked him and that was why he always assigned him tasks.

But no matter how dissatisfied Li Zhouyang was, he did not dare to disobey Li Qingchi's orders.

At this moment, Li Zhouyang, wearing a big pink sweater, looked somewhat out of place standing in front of a group of serious-looking, neatly dressed guards.

Standing next to him was the deputy captain of the guard, Wei Feng. The captain was outside and could not come back, so Wei Feng assisted Li Zhouyang in the inspection.

"Is everyone here?" Li Zhouyang asked.

Wei Feng replied: "Except for a few brothers who are on missions outside and cannot come back for the time being, the rest are all here."

Wei Feng was holding a bottle of potion in his hand, which was a special potion that could detect the difference between a human skin mask and real skin.

Just spray the potion on your face, and if you are wearing a human skin mask, you will react immediately.

"Okay, let's start." Li Zhouyang walked to a chair nearby, sat down, and crossed his legs.

"Yes, Master Zhou Yang."

Wei Feng looked serious and said to the guards: "Stand up straight, I'll check you one by one. Don't think of getting away with it." His voice was loud and echoed in the martial arts field.

Then he walked up to the first new guard, raised the bottle and gently sprayed him in the face.

If nothing changes, then there is no problem.

Wei Feng then walked towards the second new guard and repeated the same action, still without any abnormalities.

The fourth guard is fine.

The fifth guard is fine.

sixth……

Hua Xi and Zhang Dingkai stood at the back of the team.

The former looked composed, looking straight ahead calmly, while the latter was so nervous that his palms were sweating and he kept swallowing.

Among the intermediate guard team at the side, there was a man who glanced at the people next to him from time to time with a strange look on his face.

Finally, he couldn't help but ask quietly, "Li Yuan, have you grown taller?"

"I remember you weren't this tall originally."

The guard named Li Yuan calmly replied: "Height-enhancing insoles."

"You actually wear height-increasing insoles?! Is this fair? Your net height is over 1.80 meters, and if you wear height-increasing insoles, are you going to let those of us who are less than 1.80 meters tall survive?" The guard who asked the question gritted his teeth.

"I wear it once in a while." Li Yuan said.

Since Li Yuan said so, the guard who asked the question did not say anything else.

The inspection over there is still going on.

More than thirty people had been checked, and Hua Xi's turn was just a few away. At this time, an unexpected person came to the martial arts arena -

Li Xinhao.

Ever since he kidnapped Hua Chaochao and was beaten up by Hua Xi, Li Xinhao took a long time to recover from his injuries. He also became much more restrained and never went out to fool around again.

He slowly walked towards Li Zhouyang, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Li Zhouyang put his hands behind his head, looking calm and composed. "Grandpa asked me to check if there are any people who have sneaked in disguise. What are you doing here?"

"I see. No wonder all the guards in my yard are gone."

Li Zhouyang glanced at Li Xinhao and said, "If you have nothing to do, just leave and stop causing trouble for me."

He has never been very fond of his cousin.

Li Xinhao: "Who said I'm fine?"

Li Zhouyang frowned: "What can you do?"

Li Xinhao: "I'm going out, and I need someone to follow me and protect me."

Li Zhouyang said impatiently: "I don't have time to take care of you now. Let's talk about it after the examination."

Li Xinhao insisted: "How long do you have to wait? I want him now."

At this time, Wei Feng finished checking the previous chapter and stood in front of Hua Xi with the potion.

"Wait a minute!" Li Xinhao shouted at Wei Feng.

Wei Feng paused, turned around and looked at Li Xinhao in confusion.

Li Zhouyang looked at Li Xinhao, "Don't make a fuss here, can't you see that we are busy here?"

"I like her, let her go with me." Li Xinhao said, pointing at Hua Xi.

Hua Xi looked calm on the surface, but she was thinking in her heart: Is this a coincidence or...

Li Zhouyang looked in the direction Li Xinhao pointed and said, "Okay, wait until she finishes the examination."

This was agreed, but the prerequisite was that Hua Xi had to pass the inspection and confirm that there were no problems.

"Why check again? What problem could there be with the person I like?" Li Xinhao said as he was about to go over and pull the person over.

Wei Feng held the potion, not knowing whether to spray it or not, and stood there frozen for a moment.

He looked at Li Zhouyang and asked what he meant.

Li Zhouyang waved his hands in annoyance, "Never mind, let him be."

It shouldn’t be such a coincidence, Li Zhouyang thought to himself.

Li Xinhao smiled proudly and said to Hua Xi: "Did you hear me? Come with me."

Hua Xi didn't take any action at first, which made Zhang Dingkai next to her very anxious.

Sister! Go with him!

Fortunately, Hua Xi finally took a step forward slowly.

Li Xinhao walked in front with his hands behind his back, and when he passed the intermediate guard team, he suddenly stopped.

Li Zhouyang saw him stop and his eyebrows jumped, "What do you want to do now?"

Li Xinhao glanced at the intermediate guards and replied to Li Zhouyang: "One person is not enough to protect me. I will pick another one."

"...Hurry up and pick your own and get out of here!" Li Zhouyang yelled.

After being yelled at, Li Xinhao immediately pointed at someone and said, "It's you. Come out."

The person being pointed out was Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was slightly startled, then walked out of the team.

"Goodbye, brother." Li Xinhao greeted him in a good mood.

Li Zhouyang responded with an irritable "Get lost!"

Li Xinhao didn't care and left with Hua Xi and Li Yuan in a swagger.
