Chapter 265 They are all drama queens
There has been no progress in a leak case for three years, and the traitor has not revealed any clues.
This shows that this traitor is of a very high level and the enemy has high expectations of him. They have been hiding in the dark and only contact each other when important information is to be exchanged.
After coming out of the minister's office, Chang Wei saw that it was still early, so he pulled Fan Tuaner downstairs.
"Where to go?"
"Do you know the case?"
"I know. Unless the minister comes to you directly, I will be informed of all the cases that I convey."
Chang Wei knew that Fan Tuaner was only a section chief, but his background should be very powerful, and he was now more certain of his previous guess.
When stealing the information, she was the only one who cooperated and participated. In addition to keeping Chang Wei confidential, it was also a way to accumulate credit for her.
She is the old man's confidant...
Being assigned to the Dragon Group was probably the way the old man left her a way out.
"Let's go to the family quarters of the institute first. The afternoon inspection will be inside the institute, so we cannot rule out the possibility of family members rebelling."
In cases that were later declassified, cases of family members betraying the family were not uncommon.
Many scientific researchers are extremely cautious in public, but become careless when they return home.
Fan Tuan'er naturally understood this truth, "Okay, don't drive the military vehicle, I'll borrow a civilian car."
There is nothing wrong with constant power.
Familiar with the route, the two reached the family area outside the institute in about ten minutes.
This area is full of residential houses and courtyards, where engineers and technicians from the institute live.
The two pretended to be a couple, walking leisurely side by side in the alley, stopping from time to time to talk about the tiles on the wall and the trees beside the road, as if they were reluctant to finish the journey.
The two walked back and forth in the alley for a full hour. Chang Wei rubbed his eyes at the entrance of the alley, feeling dizzy.
Along the way, he kept his Fiery Eyes and All-Seeing Eyes open, and roughly scanned hundreds of households.
All the elderly people, women and children who stayed at home saw it.
There is no big problem.
His gaze slowly turned to Fan Tuaner, and his vision was completely blurred. He quickly closed his Fiery Eyes.
Seeing that he looked pale, Fan Tuan'er held his arm and asked worriedly, "Chang Wei, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I just overused my brain." Chang Wei shook it, wiped his nose with the back of his hand to confirm that there was no bleeding, and then he felt relieved.
"Let's find a place to sit and rest before we go." Fan Tuaner looked around and saw a savings bank behind him, so he helped him go in.
This savings bank is quite large, with three counters protected by iron fences. Since it is not payday, there are fewer elderly people coming to check their salaries, so the place is much quieter.
She found a bench and sat down with Chang Wei against the wall to rest.
There were two counters handling business. A young mother was withdrawing money with her passbook. The child who came with her was bored. He climbed onto the chair in front of the empty counter and turned his head back and forth. He curiously poked his head through the iron fence and asked, "Were you also locked up by the police for not eating?"
The woman sitting at the counter had nothing to do. Seeing the child's words were interesting, she teased him and said, "It's not that I didn't eat well, it's that I didn't study well, so the police arrested me."
The child sniffed and pouted, "You're lying."
The woman was stunned for a moment, then said seriously: "I didn't lie to you. If you don't study hard, the police will arrest you too."
The child got down from the chair, ran away, and shouted, "You are obviously lying. You are not a sister, you are an aunt."
The originally quiet savings bank became even quieter.
After a moment, the women all started laughing, and even Fan Tuaner covered her mouth.
Perhaps because of the noise, a middle-aged man came out of the office, frowned and shouted, "What are you doing laughing during work hours?"
Several clerks at the counters rolled their eyes but stopped laughing.
The man turned around and prepared to go back. He turned his head and saw a middle-aged woman who was doing business. He hurried over and said, "Sister Li, you are here. Is Director Guo okay?"
The woman called Sister Li was very happy. "It's Director Yang. I'm here to bother you again."
Director Yang glanced at the counter and smiled flatteringly: "You come here to exchange gold, which is a support for our work. How can you say it is a trouble?"
When Chang Wei heard this, he looked at Sister Li carefully, slowly stood up, walked to the wall, looked up at the gold exchange price written on the wall, and glanced at the counter from time to time.
No one paid any attention to him and continued chatting. Sister Li sighed softly and said, "Old Guo has to send his monthly salary back to support his hometown. I have no choice but to take out the little gold in my family's savings."
Director Yang smiled and said, "That's because Director Guo is a man of high moral character, culture and moral integrity."
The clerk at the counter was too young. While counting the money, he said enviously, "Sister Li, your family is really rich. We have exchanged a lot of gold in the past two or three years."
As soon as these words came out, Sister Li's face changed, and she quickly explained: "My family is just a middle-class peasant family. This gold was given by my brother-in-law. He studied abroad and just came back a few years ago in response to the call. When he saw that we were in difficulty, he provided some support."
When it comes to background and studying abroad, everyone shuts up immediately.
Chang Wei winked and turned to walk out.
In front of the savings bank, Fan Tuan'er followed and whispered, "Is there something wrong with this Sister Li?"
"The gold she got didn't come from a good source. When the clerk asked her just now, she was obviously very nervous. If it was really given by her brother-in-law who studied abroad, there's no need to be afraid. Those who return from abroad are all talented people. We will take special care of them and won't investigate such a small matter."
"Check it out?"
"I'll follow her, you go check who this Director Guo is."
"Okay, take care of yourself."
After saying that, Fan Tuaner pretended to have a quarrel with Chang Wei, which became louder and louder. Finally, she left in a huff, leaving Chang Wei with a helpless look on his face.
It turns out that everyone in the Investigation Department is a drama queen.
Looking at the temper he has, if it happens decades later, even a generous gift from Xiang Nainai won’t be enough to coax him back to normal.
Sister Li came out after exchanging the gold. Seeing Chang Wei's dejected look, she smiled and said, "Young men should give in to girls when dating."
Chang Wei smiled awkwardly and whispered behind Sister Li, "She is unreasonable. We clearly agreed on the betrothal gift, but now she wants to increase the money."
Sister Li was attracted by Chang Wei's topic and gossiped as they walked: "How much do her family want for the bride price?"
"We agreed on fifty before, and the wedding date was set. Her family said they wanted to buy a bicycle for her brother, and asked me to give them another fifty."
"That's a bit much indeed."
"That's right, what does his brother buying a bicycle have to do with me?"
"..."
The two of them whispered all the way. Chang Wei accompanied Sister Li to the gate of the courtyard and watched her walk into the courtyard and into the house.
After returning to the alley, he hid in the corner to smoke a cigarette. Fan Tuaner came running over and said, "It's confirmed. This is the lover of Guo Baijun from the research institute."
"Did this Guo Baijun participate in rocket research?"
“I participated in it and was the main designer.”
Chang Wei nodded, looked far into the alley, and chuckled, "Let's check this Guo Baijun's brother-in-law first."
