Before Pei Zhen set off to Fulin, he packed enough money for Wu Yuan to take Pei Linwan back to his hometown first.

Pei Zhen is a doctor, so she naturally supported him when he went to care for others, but he never mentioned when he would return, which made Wu Yuan uncontrollably worried.

Pei Zhen is not good at expressing his sorrows to others, he is always gentle, kind and intelligent, and likes to keep things in his heart.

So after Pei Zhen left, Wu Yuan hid Pei Linwan, who was doing homework, and went to the gate of Xu Mansion quietly by himself.Although it is cleaned every day, there is no permanent habitation there.Wu Yuan didn't know that the Xu family had moved out until she was refused by the iron gate and the cleaners to leave the mansion.

Wu Yuan is only acquainted with the nanny neighbors in Huai City, and has never attended some high-class banquets as Mrs. Pei, so people at Pei Zhen's level only know Young Master Xu and Yu Yao.She only knew that Yu Yao was framed as a murderer and executed, but she didn't know or understand other things.

Now she can't even find the young master. She stands alone in front of the huge house, carrying a canvas bag with a corner mended in both hands, which contains fresh fruits that she intends to give Xu Zhiyuan to eat.

Wu Yuan watched the passers-by, carriages, and cars coming and going on the street, and the unspeakable fear of the unknown permeated her whole body unconsciously.Since she married Pei Zhen, she has devoted herself to planting this home for several years.Life is a stable and smooth cocoon, but the "field" and "cocoon silk" used for painstaking management... Everything about her comes from Pei Zhen—she seems to rely on Pei Zhen even more than Pei Linwan.Without him, she would return to the farmland with nothing to lose, wasting her efforts on her "relatives" who didn't care about her at all.

It was a sunny day, but Wu Yuan's heart was very damp. She didn't know how to express herself properly, so she smiled and wiped a few oranges with her clothes, and stuffed them into the hands of the servants guarding Xu's mansion.

In this way, she went home disappointed.

……

Fulin was also affected by the rainy season, the sky cried miserably for several days, the scorching sun and scorching heat followed by the changing of the guard, pedestrians were like a group of slices of meat that had been boiled and grilled, floating in the big pot of Fulin in a daze.

There are dried earthworms everywhere on the road, and some linger in the shade cast by the trees, but as long as the sun walks half a circle in the sky and the light like a furnace changes the angle, their death will be imminent.

Pei Zhen was not acclimatized when he landed, but as a person who wears a white coat all the year round, he has his own way of dealing with it so that he won't vomit and have diarrhea for several days.He took a small first aid kit with all internal organs with him, and wrote a letter to his hometown and Meng Che when he arrived.After staying in the hotel for half a day, I went to the place arranged by Meng Che.

In front of him was a villa, and Pei Zhen showed Meng Che's handwritten letter to the guard and got permission to enter.Some masters were watering flowers and repairing grass in the yard, and they were also complaining about the weather in their mouths.After Pei Zhen entered the villa, he expressed his intention to come, and was taken to a high floor by the maid. Sensitively, he smelled the smell of disinfectant and blood in the corridor. He frowned and looked around—this is a gorgeous villa that is not exaggerated. Occasionally, a few daily items can be seen, such as the shoe brushes that the servants carelessly dropped, and some notes and numbers on the top of the phone by the stairs are caught in the photo frame. The life is very strong, and people should be living there all the time, not in a hurry Make room for people to use, or a place dedicated to holding banquets.

Pei Zhen heaved a sigh of relief for no reason, the maid stopped stepping forward after bringing him here, pointed to a door, and said, "Mr. Yu is right there."

Pei Zhen thanked her, passed by two nurses who came out of the next room, and inadvertently caught sight of two bandaged patients in the other room.

It seems that Meng Che asked him not only to treat Yu Yan's illness - he thought to himself, walked into the room pointed by the maid, and saw the man lying on the bed under the dim light.He didn't want to wake up the patient, but the man seemed to move when he stepped forward, Pei Zhen thought he was awake, so he leaned over and greeted softly: "You are Mr. Yu Yan, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, something cold and hard touched the back of his head.When he entered the door, he didn't realize that there was another person hiding here.The man said in a calm voice, "Who is it?"

Pei Zhen raised one hand calmly, took out Meng Che's letter from his pocket with the other hand, and showed it to the people behind him.The man read for a while before he finished probing, put away the gun, and said, "Forgive me."

Pei Zhen: "It's fine."

"You are the doctor Meng Che sent to help." The man stretched out his hand and said, "I'm Yu Yan, nice to meet you."

Only then was Pei Zhen able to turn around and see Yu Yan's face which was somewhat similar to Yu Yao's.But he remembered Meng Che's words, looked suspiciously at Yu Yan who was alive and kicking and was able to hold a gun, then looked at the man wrapped in many bandages on the bed, and said, "Are you really Brother Yu Yao?"

"So you still know my brother."

"I once treated him for stomach problems."

Yu Yan stared at him thinking for a long time, rubbed his chin, and said, "Doctor...is your surname Pei?"

"Yes, Pei Zhen."

Yu Yan was relieved for the most part, hugged him and patted his shoulder, said with a smile: "I know you, Ah Yao used to tell me about you."

Pei Zhen was already tormented terribly by the acclimatization, and he almost vomited out the sour water in his stomach after being slapped several times.He coughed a few times, quickly kept a distance from the comrade, and said with a smile, "You...you are really different from Yu Yao."

Yu Yandao: "People who know both of us have said so."

Seeing that he didn't show any sadness when he mentioned his younger brother, Pei Zhen couldn't help but doubt the "extremely sad and hurtful" statement, but felt that he had just come out of the gloom, pretending to be optimistic, and was hesitating to ask for help. Do not go to the exit to ask.Yu Yan came down seriously and said, "Since you're here, you know how dangerous our mission is. Don't leave this villa these few days, and report to me when necessary."

Pei Zhen confirmed that he was deceived, he frowned and said: "I'm very sorry, I don't know what mission we have. I just came here to treat your illness according to Master Meng's wishes, but you seem to be safe and sound."

"He didn't tell you?"

Pei Zhen shook his head.

"Maybe it's not convenient for him to tell you." When Yu Yan confessed the secret, he arranged the surroundings very tightly, and he and Pei Zhen wore a mask to cover their mouths before he said, "Our comrades will be in the coalition government. There is a dark line from the top, and the information provided has always been very confidential and accurate, but in a secret mission, the information went wrong. It caused us to fail and... heavy casualties."

Pei Zhen seemed to understand something, looked at the wounded lying on the bed, and asked, "These are the people injured in that mission?"

"Yes, and the leader is me. I never told anyone, and so did A Yao." Yu Yan lowered his eyes and said, "Because of this mission, the Yu family was just rebuilt under artillery fire, and then burned. Killing and ransacking. I was hunted down all the time, thanks to Meng Che, I was able to settle these brothers in Fulin. Beicheng... I can only go back and visit occasionally."

"But isn't Menche from the coalition government?"

"Meng Che's identity is too special. He is not only a high-level executive of the coalition government, but also... that buried secret thread."

"..." Pei Zhen closed his eyes, and was dragged into the muddy water for no reason, he said, "Then why did you tell me, I don't want to die by your gun today."

"You don't have to be afraid," Yu Yan laughed a few times, eased the atmosphere, and said, "The information is clearly misdirected, and his identity has been exposed because of this, and the organization should transfer him urgently soon. He will lose his undercover status. Although it still needs to be kept secret from most people, since you are sent by him and you want to help here, it doesn’t matter if you know more details.”

"Why do you believe so much that he is the dark line?"

"It's still because of the 'confidential' false information." Yu Yan sighed, "I suffered because of this, so I couldn't be more clear about the content——Meng Che knows the detailed cause and effect, verbatim."

"And..." Yu Yan's tone was a little low, he clenched his fingers, and said, "He said it was Zhen...Xu Zhenping made a hindrance, tempted him with wrong information, and the temptation was successful."

"Although I don't want to accept this fact, I have already sent a confirmation telegram to the organization, and the result I got is exactly that." Yu Yan seemed to have made up his mind, glanced at the brother lying on the bed, and said , "We will be enemies with Xu Zhenping."

The room was quiet for a long time, and Pei Zhen seemed to hear the creaking of the bones of the wounded in a trance, and he also seemed to growl in his throat and clenched his fists.

"Although I don't want to know, but still...thank you for telling me this." Pei Zhen could only swear, "I guarantee with my life that during the days of working here, and after I leave here, I will not let things go Speak out."

Yu Yan: "Yes."

"But I do want to confess one thing to you, a very important thing."

Yu Yan looked dignified and said, "Say."

Pei Zhen raised his hands slightly: "I'm not a member of the Robe Association, and of course I'm not a member of the coalition government. I'm a member of the public without faction."

Yu Yan: "."

"You didn't join the club?"

Pei Zhen paused and said: "I said it at the beginning, I came to treat you at the invitation of Master Meng, and I don't know anything else."

Yu Yan stared at him for a long time, Pei Zhen also stared back confidently.

Yu Yan, who was preconceived, fell into an awkward silence.Leaking information to ordinary people—although it poses no threat—if the organization is known, either Pei Zhen will be imprisoned or he will be punished.

Finally, Yu Yan took out a piece of letter paper from the drawer, threw the pen to him, and said, "Write an application immediately, I will recommend it to you, and you can submit it immediately."

"..." Pei Zhen held his pen and said, "Join the club on the spot?"

Yu Yan urged: "Write quickly."

……

Fang family.

Fang Jingxing hastily sent word to let Yu Yao go over, this time he didn't even care about changing the secret location, the basement of Fang's house was the safest.

Yu Yao has many identities, this time he naturally entered the Fang family mansion on the grounds of sending books.

When Fang Jingxing pulled him into the basement, he was still holding a pile of letters, his serious expression made Yu Yao feel the seriousness of the matter.

"What? Has anyone been arrested?" Yu Yao said while Fang Jingxing was lighting a candle.

"What do you mean Cao Cao? Here comes Cao Cao." Fang Jingxing sucked in his breath through his teeth and said, "I haven't been caught yet, I've been exposed."

Yu Yao didn't understand what "Cao Cao" symbolized, and asked, "Do you need our assistance in transferring it?"

Fang Jingxing nodded, and said, "What was exposed was the hidden line I told you a few days ago...."

Fang Jingxing's words sent chills down Yu Yao's spine. He remained silent and listened to Fang Jingxing's words: "In short, the comrades in Beicheng used wrong information conveyed by dark lines, which led to the failure of the mission. The organization guessed that the dark lines were exposed. So Issue orders to colleagues in Huaishi and Wuzhou to release his identity secrets from some important members and assist him in transfer."

Yu Yao said vigilantly: "Is there no possibility of mutiny from the dark side?"

"Since he can afford this status and has done the most dangerous task, it shows that the organization has given him absolute trust. They have their own accurate judgment, so don't worry about it." Fang Jingxing said, "Let's not talk about this, for you Yan Yan, if you knew the name of An Xian, you would also trust him."

"Yes?"

"Xu Zhenping."

In an instant, Yu Yao's heart trembled suddenly, but this shock was restrained by a kind of hidden reason, so that it would not let Yu Yao subvert his cognition.

"At the beginning, I thought it was my family who saved me from the prison, but now it seems that it has something to do with Xu Zhenping." Fang Jingxing said to himself, "Once his identity is released, everything before him seems to be traceable. followed."

Yu Yao was thankful and worried at the same time, his breath hung in his chest and he couldn't get up or down.He said: "I am on standby at any time, and the transfer of peace is the top priority. If necessary, I can use my identity to make a fuss."

Fang Jingxing stretched out a finger helplessly, and said, "Mr. Yu, have you not digested my criticism? Or have you been infected by the young master? How to solve the problem has become radical, you..."

Yu Yao coughed and said, "Boss, get down to business."

"..." Fang Jingxing had no choice but to brake the brakes in time, and continued, "Speaking of which... there is one more terrible thing. Your eldest brother was one of the members who participated in that failed mission."

Yu Yao frowned and said, "He never told me."

"He was lost for a long time—you know that."

"Ah."

"Because his danger is still not resolved, including the years you left, his whereabouts are still uncertain." Fang Jingxing said, "But we have discovered his hiding place in Fulin during this period, and he is actually receiving Meng Che's help .”

Yu Yao's heart was suspended again, and he said, "Meng Che?"

"The possibility that he was threatened is not ruled out. We are trying our best to contact him and take them out of there." Fang Jingxing frowned, "I don't understand why he trusts Meng Che, is it because of his fellowship?"

"No," Yu Yao pursed his lips, and said seriously, "He has an unshakable righteousness in his heart. If the other party is an enemy, no matter whether he is a friend or a relative...he will not show mercy because of personal friendship, including me. Unless Meng Che used some method to make the elder brother completely trust him."

"What reason can make a staunch fellowship member trust a high-level coalition government."

"Dark thread," Yu Yao said in a deep voice with serious eyes, "Meng Che can pretend to be that dark thread."

"It's not easy to pretend, he needs a 'proof', what kind of proof can make Yu Yan let go of his guard..."

Both of them paused, and after looking at each other, they said in unison: "That piece of wrong information."

They both had a premonition of the worst outcome, and just imagining it in their minds would make their hairs stand on end.

Yu Yan was originally a personal victim of false information. If Meng Che knew the cause and effect of this incident—then the pretending would be much easier.

And why did Meng Che understand this so deeply?

There may be only one result, and Meng Che is the one who made false information that caused Yu Yan's mission to fail and Xu Zhenping's identity to be exposed.

And now the culprit put on a sheepskin to help Yu Yan and the injured participants—these people are now a group of hostages who don't know it, and may even become Meng Che's tool to kill with a knife. How can this not make their hair stand on end.

"No..." At the end of Yu Yao's analysis, he couldn't believe this conclusion. He said anxiously, "No matter how many proofs Meng Che provided, no matter how deeply the eldest brother personally believes, unless he is confirmed by the organization, he will not believe it." It will be carried out rashly. Has the organization received his telegrams, letters or anything like that?"

Fang Jingxing shook his head, and said word by word: "The organization has not received any confirmation message from him."
