Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Wang Dabao had not finished his nap yet when the phone in the small living room outside rang.

I got up in a daze, got out of bed and went to the living room to answer the phone. It turned out that Section Chief Hu had returned and asked him to come over to discuss something.

Wang Dabao put on his clothes and came to Section Chief Hu's lounge across the street. He opened the door and sat on the small sofa in the reception room. He picked up a cigarette from the coffee table and lit it. "It's just a matter of knocking on the door. I also need to make a phone call. What did you do this morning?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you yesterday."

Section Chief Hu made two cups of tea and came over, then took a detour to sit across from Wang Dabao. "My mother is old, and the doctor told her to go to the hospital once a week."

Seeing Wang Dabao sitting up straight with a questioning look in his eyes, Section Chief Hu was touched and waved his hand with a smile: "Nothing serious has happened. After all, he is old. He was criticized when he was young. Although he was rehabilitated later, his body is still in poor condition. But to be honest, I am satisfied that he can live to this day as a son."

Wang Dabao nodded. He understood what Chief Hu meant by being criticized. He also knew that it was not easy for the old lady to survive that time.

In those days, eight out of ten people couldn’t survive, and each died in their own way!

"We've gotten off track. I called you here because I have something important to tell you."

Section Chief Hu stood up and stood at the door for a while, then locked the door and returned to his seat.

Wang Dabao was a little confused by this series of actions. What important matter would require such caution? They were also afraid that someone might eavesdrop outside the door. This was the security department's own territory. Could there be an undercover agent here? !

While Chief Hu was planning, he was also observing Wang Dabao calmly. He wanted to see how this young man would react when faced with something.

Wang Dabao was indeed extremely curious, but after noticing Section Chief Hu's expression, he could only sigh helplessly: "Come on, Old Hu, don't forget that we have all been to the front lines. We are not afraid of losing our lives, so what else can scare us?"

Section Chief Hu chuckled and picked up his teacup: "Speaking of which, before your report, our factory received a task to process a batch of rare metal materials, and the processing was completed just last week."

"After that, I drew personnel from the public security team and the security team to load the finished workpieces onto trucks in the middle of the night and transport them to the warehouse in the north district."

"The day after tomorrow is the day we will ship out this batch of workpieces. Director Yang and I have discussed this before, and we plan to set out the night before. The journey will take about five or six hours, and we will arrive at the port at daybreak, where we will wait for the ship to pick up the workpieces."

"I don't need to explain the importance of this batch of rare material parts. You should know it clearly."

Wang Dabao shook his head vigorously: "No, I really don't know."

Section Chief Hu looked as if it was no fun to talk like that, then he pointed at the ceiling mysteriously and said in a low voice: "I guess it might be used for that thing in the sky."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Wang Dabao picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. "In a word, as long as the man is there, the work is there."

Section Chief Hu shook his head, picked up the cigarette on the coffee table, lit one, and said solemnly, "Even if the person is gone, the workpiece cannot be lost."

Wang Dabao nodded silently, understanding that this was Lao Hu's attitude towards the matter.

After all, the person is gone, and the artifact is definitely gone.

"In order to prevent enemy spies from attacking us along the way, I was thinking of asking Director Zhao for support. Now, someone brought me a pillow when I was taking a nap. Last week, a fax came in saying that you, a combat hero, were going to report. I was so happy."

As he said this, Section Chief Hu laughed heartily.

"We will escort them together this time. I will be in front and you will be behind. The members of the security team are all retired soldiers. We will select 20 smart brothers from them and bring enough equipment. We are enough to deal with any emergency."

Wang Dabao put out his cigarette, thinking about what Section Chief Hu had just said about his old mother: "Old Hu, I have fought in many battles, big and small. I can take my brothers to transport this batch of workpieces by myself. At your age, you should wait for news in the factory."

Although he has not had much contact with the brothers in the security team, all of them are retired soldiers. Wang Dabao is confident that he can lead these people to deal with any emergency with sufficient equipment.

"Bullshit."

Section Chief Hu laughed and said, "If I don't go with you, I won't be able to sleep at night."

Then, Section Chief Hu looked at Wang Dabao's wrist and said, "Hey, Comrade Dabao, you are great. I just gave you the ticket, and you have been wearing the watch all night!"

"If I had known that you wanted me to come over to escort such an important workpiece with you, I should have asked you for a watch directly."

"My watch was captured on the battlefield. You young people don't like it."

Section Chief Hu laughed and stood up. "Let's go to Director Yang to discuss the transportation route for tomorrow night."

The two of them left the security building and walked a few steps into the office building.

When they arrived at the third floor and saw that there was no one in the corridor, Section Chief Hu dragged Wang Dabao into Yang Xinmin's office.

The door of Yang Xinmin's office was not closed, probably because he had greeted Section Chief Hu in advance.

The two men pushed the door open and Yang Xinmin walked over from behind the desk holding a map.

After Section Chief Hu locked the door, the three of them sat down in the reception area. Without much greeting, Yang Xinmin directly spread out the map on the coffee table.

Wang Dabao saw two routes marked with red and black lines on the map, and thought that it should be the result of a discussion between Section Chief Hu and Factory Director Yang.

"Look, Dabao."

Section Chief Hu pointed to the route marked by the red line and said, "After discussing with Director Yang, we finally decided to take the first route, which is the red line."

Director Yang nodded and continued Chief Hu's words: "Although the route drawn with a black pen is flat and takes a relatively short time, it is too conspicuous and may easily attract the attention of people with ulterior motives."

"The road drawn with a red pen is more hidden, and its shortcomings are also obvious. It is not easy to walk on and takes a long time. Most importantly, it passes through here."

Yang Xinmin reached out and tapped on the map.

"Other places are fine, but this is a dozen kilometers of woods. If the news of our transport of the artifact leaks out, the enemy will likely ambush here."

Wang Dabao carefully observed the route on the map and looked up and said, "Why not take both routes at the same time?!"
