215. New member of the outpost
When Ren Xiaosu learned that the old man was here to investigate the disappearance of the Li officer, he immediately became alert, but he did not show anything on the surface.
Ren Xiaosu sat next to the campfire, and the student next to him handed him a roasted chicken leg.
The old man smiled at Ren Xiaosu while eating, "Young people nowadays always don't pay much attention to their stomachs. When you reach my age, you will understand. It's a blessing to be able to eat."
"You are right," Ren Xiaosu glanced at the other party. It must be unreasonable for six hours to have diarrhea. She had praised Chen Wudi for being able to adapt, but now thinking about it, she is actually thinking too much.
Chen Wudi said that he had diarrhea for six hours, which means that the old man had been here for six hours.
However, the old man didn't ask where he was going, but he actually followed the reason for diarrhea, as if he had no intention of delving into it.
Ren Xiaosu didn't believe that a person responsible for investigating a case could ignore such a simple common sense issue. The other party was pretending to be confused because he understood.
"Are you clues about the case this time?" Ren Xiaosu said as if nothing had happened.
"I said I came to investigate, but what does it have to do with me if the Li family disappeared?" the old man said with a smile: "I am so old and I still let me work in this kind of weather. Do you see if this is what people do?"
Ren Xiaosu looked at the other party’s appearance: “You are alive this year?”
"It's seventy-three this year," the old man smiled and said, "I haven't introduced myself yet. Hello everyone, my name is Wushou."
Everyone looked at each other. The name sounded very strange, but what Ren Xiaosu cared more was that the other party was not surnamed Li.
In this place, people with the surname Li deserve more attention from Ren Xiaosu. So far, except for Li Qingzheng, the wolf king of Kunshan, all the surname Li Ren Xiaosu encountered were basically middle and senior officers in the consortium army.
"Why did you take on this case?" Ren Xiaosu said curiously.
"I don't want to take it either," Hushang scratched his head with his little finger and smiled: "But Li gave me an order, saying that if I don't come to investigate this case, I won't pay me a salary, so I can only come over to deal with the errands. But I didn't expect that I could still eat so much wild game at your post, and I'm considered a profit."
Ren Xiaosu felt that this matter was probably not as simple as the other party said. What kind of ordinary person could a 73-year-old man come here?
Moreover, if there is a problem with Li, please ask the other party to come out. There must be a reason.
However, at this moment, Hushang stood up and patted the dust on his pants: "Okay, eat and drink enough."
Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, "How many posts have you walked today?"
He laughed nonsense: "You are the only one."
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu felt that the other party might have discovered some clues, so he came to them directly. In an instant, Ren Xiaosu began to hesitate whether to leave the other party behind.
But he suddenly said, "Which room should I live in?"
Now everyone was asked, Ren Xiaosu was still thinking about keeping the other party, but she didn't expect that the other party was planning to live here directly.
Li Qing was laughing beside him and said, "We will clean up a room for you now."
There are 7 bungalows in the outpost. There was originally an empty room as a storage room for miscellaneous items, but not much stuff was placed. Now that I am talking about staying overnight, Li Qingzheng, as the squad leader of the combat team, is willing to get in touch with such an elderly man who is suspected to be a big shot.
Most refugees have an instinct. Everyone thinks that by establishing relationships with big people in the barriers, they can make life easier. They are superstitious about this relationship.
However, this made Ren Xiaosu a little embarrassed. He decided to wait and see for a while, and it would not be too late to decide what to do when he determined what the old man's purpose was.
Ren Xiaosu felt that this nonsense had clearly found a clue, but he couldn't understand how confident the other party had to stay here?
However, something that surprised Ren Xiaosu even more happened. This nonsense was not about staying here for a night, but... not leaving!
The next morning, the Wolf King sent a large pile of pheasants as promised, and these pheasants were piled at the door of the outpost.
But this strange scene did not cause nonsense to question. The other party seemed to have nothing happened, but just praised this place as a good place to eat meat.
Ren Xiaosu observed the other party's expression. Everyone knew that this was abnormal, but he didn't even ask. He started to play Tai Chi at the door of the outpost. After the trial, he asked Li Qingzheng and the others to cook, saying that he still wanted to eat meat.
So everyone started barbecue from the early morning, and Ren Xiaosu felt that he was full of barbecue.
"Don't you ask where this prey comes from?" Ren Xiaosu asked while eating meat.
Novice said, "Just have something to eat, but don't care where the food comes from? It's not something that was brought by a wolf."
Ren Xiaosu was speechless for a moment, and he was increasingly confused about the intention of this nonsense.
Early in the morning of the third day, Wu Shuo still woke up and practiced Tai Chi. After he finished, he asked everyone to cook.
But the difference is that another truck came to the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, but the soldiers who came this time were a bit special. They actually brought bedding and teapots and other daily necessities, and cleaned up the house again for the bullshit...
Ren Xiaosu was shocked and found out that he had planned to stay here for a long time.
When the soldiers were cleaning up the house, Ren Xiaosu was carefully observing whether he had told the soldiers about some strange things, such as implying that the other party brought heavy troops to encircle the outpost, or something, but it was not the case.
However, when the soldiers reported to Hu Shuo, Hu Shuo did not shy away from Ren Xiaosu and the others. The reports of the soldiers were related to Ren Xiaosu: the outpost on another small hill was attacked by a wolves, and there were wolf blood and wolf hairs found there. Then the army attached great importance to this matter and planned to send troops to clear out the wolves in the mountains.
Ren Xiaosu observed the reaction of Wushu, but Wushu just laughed and said, "The wolf pack has nothing to do with our case, don't participate in such idiots."
From beginning to end, the other party seemed to have never thought of anything from the pheasant at the door of the outpost.
But Ren Xiaosu knew very well that the other party was just pretending to be confused with his understanding.
At this moment, Li Qingzheng muttered to Ren Xiaosu in a low voice: "The officer who gave this old man something is a colonel!"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. What level should he be able to use a person of the colonel level within the Li family?
Chapter completed!
