Chapter 282 Don’t You Recognize Me?
Many of the things Shen Manzhi does seem nonsensical to outsiders, but in fact she just does it covertly enough to eliminate risks to a large extent. You can understand it if you just think more about the motives behind her example, she chose to contact the person remotely here instead of contacting the base camp after finding it, because she wanted to inform the other party that she was safe here for the time being.
Since it is safe, they can meet here first to shorten the distance to the Golden Leopard Base Camp and avoid being too late for rescue when danger occurs.
Of course, the "danger" here refers to the threat to the undercover agent's personal safety.
She was not the kind of person who was used to reporting safety, not to mention that the other party was just a partner, and they would not worry about life and death when going on a mission. The advantage of this was that they could better turn the tide in desperate situations.
The downside is that it’s easy to get yourself into trouble.
But since it was a collaboration, she had to show some respect, so she sent a photo of a pancake to remind the other party that she was temporarily safe.
After all, this pancake is really disgusting.
Shen Manzhi finished a whole bottle of water, crushed it and threw it into the trash can, then looked at his phone again.
The other party sent a message with the word "received" and attached a photo of a pile of food.
Shen Manzhi chuckled with the tip of his tongue against his canine teeth, and typed out an afterimage on the pop-up keyboard.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
The monkey was holding the computer and howling. Yan Wu, who was standing beside him, hit him hard, “Can you please be quiet!”
"This guy! This guy is too much!"
The monkey could only complain quietly. He was feeling smug, thinking he had fought back, but the other party came over and threw a mine at his server, causing the network to collapse instantly.
That’s not all. When the code reached the end, it actually displayed a group of pink pigs jumping around on his screen!
This guy is playing with him, right?
Qin Yanfeng glanced over here a few times, and the monkey immediately fell silent, looking at him aggrievedly.
Yan Wu glanced at him and stepped forward, "All our people have arrived in the city center and can set off at any time."
Qin Yanfeng glanced at his watch and said, "Let's go."
It was twelve o'clock noon, two hours away from arriving at the town.
The yellow line on the tracker software never changed, which meant that Xitu and the others had no plans to go back.
Shen Manzhi passed by there twice inadvertently. The three cars on the side of the hotel showed no signs of movement. There were only two people guarding them below.
What is Xitu waiting for?
According to the tone of Mr. Xun last night, asking Xitu to "go back" should mean going back to the village. Even if it is just to eat and rest, he should not stay for so long.
If they followed Situ's convoy back the same way they did before, the risk of being discovered would only be greater, but since they had not returned to the base camp, they could not continue with their next plan.
Shen Manzhi only ate one third of the cake and was very hungry.
After two years of eating and drinking well in Huaicheng, I developed a picky eating habit. When I saw the food in a small town abroad, I had no appetite at all.
So I went to the supermarket and bought some biscuits and chocolates to fill my stomach, and after getting over my temper, I staggered back to the cell phone repair shop.
The boss was still playing games. It was a sunny day with a temperature of around 20 degrees. He was lying on a bench at the door of the store with his legs crossed, having a great time playing games.
Seeing the yellow-haired boy coming over from across the street, he sat up and said impatiently, "Didn't I tell you to come this afternoon?"
"I am not in a hurry."
Shen Manzhi leaned against the counter and saw the computer at the cash register in the messy room. It was a very old desktop computer.
The boss pushed further and said, "Then wait until I finish this game."
Anyway, it’s okay. Shen Manzhi was about to shut down the backup machine to destroy the data, but suddenly a prompt of a network attack came out.
There was a playful smile in her eyes.
"Boss, can I borrow your computer?"
The boss didn't hear clearly the first time, so he asked again and turned around to look her up and down, "Can you use a computer?"
Shen Manzhi blinked. Can’t a yellow-haired boy know how to use a computer?
She raised her eyebrows, played with the corner of her phone, tilted her body slightly to smile at him, raised her chin to indicate the game in his phone, and said the exact name.
"I like playing this as much as you do, but I like playing it on the computer. It's more exciting."
The boss laughed and said, "That's true, but my computer is too broken to play with. You can do whatever you want yourself."
Shen Manzhi thanked him with a smile and went around to the cashier counter to turn on the computer.
It is indeed very old and even difficult to turn on. I guess the boss put it here as a decoration. However, it is a handy tool for hackers.
The monkey looked at the red dot that kept jumping on the page, and his eyes turned red with anxiety. "I don't believe I can't catch you!"
Yan Wu lifted up his collar and said, "Pay attention to reconnaissance and stop doing that."
The monkey glared at him, "I almost locked onto his position just now!"
Qin Yanfeng sat in the passenger seat and looked back.
Yan Wu laughed at his childish nature, "He is from Linjiang, so we are still on the same side. Why did you arrest him?"
"You don't understand. This is a competition between us hackers. Besides, aren't we going to meet him there?"
Qin Yanfeng withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes to rest.
Yan Wu took over the conversation, "The people from Linjiang are only responsible for sneaking in and delivering undercover information to us. There are too many spies from Jinbao here, and it would be risky to meet them. It is better for each of us to do our own job well."
The monkey seemed to understand, but not quite, and continued to fiddle with it.
There were countless disorganized silver network lines on the page, with red dots jumping rapidly among them. When he caught up, he found that all the IP addresses were fake. This person had obviously mobilized all the available servers around to cover up his location.
Forget it, destroy it.
He slumped down on the armchair with a look of despair. "He doesn't want us to find him either."
Yan Wu smiled and said, "Are you admitting that he is better than you?"
The monkey curled his lips and looked out the window, "It's just a little bit powerful."
Shen Manzhi curled the corners of his mouth slightly, cleaned up the data, turned off the computer, and cleaned up the data on the backup machine.
The weather is sunny and suitable for traveling.
However, Xitu had not left yet, so the location of the Golden Leopard base could not be locked, and Shen Manzhi could not leave.
She tilted her head back and squinted her eyes. The sunlight made her whole body feel lazy and a little sleepy. After all, she hadn't slept for a day and a night.
The boss grumbled, clearly frustrated at the game.
Shen Manzhi wandered over and said, "Come, let me play a few rounds while you help me fix my phone."
The boss was reluctant, "Do you know how to use the mobile app?"
She stretched out her leg to hook the chair on the other side, and sat down carelessly with her long legs apart, "I can do it all."
The boss sneered, handed her the phone, and went back to work.
This is the game that Shen Manzhi often plays when she has nothing to do. Being all-powerful is not just talk. Messages of victory are continuously coming from the game. The boss is bending under the lamp, repairing his phone while glancing at her.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at a certain point. There were fewer people walking on the street, and the cement road was covered with low clouds of dust as vehicles passed by.
At the entrance of the mobile phone repair shop, a tall and thin girl with dyed yellow hair was sitting at the door playing games. Cool game sound effects came from the phone. Children passing by occasionally came closer to take a look, but were pulled away by the adults. New children continued to come up and some even knelt on the ground and lay on her knees.
"Wow, this is amazing!"
The boss was concentrating on repairing a cell phone under the counter, with a shadow in front of him.
“Do you have any cell phone batteries for sale?”
A low and hoarse voice sounded above his head, and the boss looked up.
The man at the counter was tall, wearing a conventional old jacket, with a slightly unkempt hairdo and messy cuffs.
But that face is really handsome.
The boss had never seen anyone like this in the town, and according to his life experience...
This guy has a more rogue temperament than the yellow-haired guy next to him, like a gangster. "He's dead, why don't you beat him up!"
The kids watching the game were more excited than those playing it, and they hugged their "big brother's" legs and howled.
The boss and the man at the counter both looked over there.
Shen Manzhi's finger on the screen froze, and she hesitated and looked up at the man at the door.
Qin Yanfeng.
Shen Manzhi was shocked from the moment she heard what he said, but due to her training over the years, she showed almost no strange expression, and even the way she looked up was casual and lazy.
Qin Yanfeng was only attracted by the child's voice for a moment, then he turned his gaze away coldly and asked again, "Boss, do you have this kind of mobile phone battery for sale?"
The boss took the phone, looked at the model number, then turned around and looked for it on the shelf.
The child urged him to open the next one. Shen Manzhi withdrew his gaze, feeling empty inside.
She had changed her appearance and looked like a boy, so it was normal that Qin Yanfeng didn't recognize her.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
And it was impossible to imagine that she would appear here.
“This one, right?”
The boss dug out a new battery, replaced it for him, and then started selling his fake product, "You might as well buy a new battery for your phone."
"That's enough."
Qin Yanfeng took the phone, took out his wallet, paid the bill, and turned to leave.
The child lay on the "big brother's" lap in frustration, "Why did he die again?"
Shen Manzhi didn't respond, but looked outside.
Very different from his usual gentle appearance in a suit and tie, he seemed to blend into this city. He was unkempt and had a lazy temperament, like an unemployed vagrant. However, his eyes were cold and he didn't like to smile.
Why is he here?
He appeared in Golden Leopard's territory without any disguise. Does he know that this place is very dangerous?
Shen Manzhi frowned subconsciously. Was he the one who pulled her into the private room in the club?
She helped the child up from the ground and gave him the phone, "You play."
The child happily held the phone and started operating it.
The boss exclaimed and ran over to grab it, "You can't do that!"
Shen Manzhi wanted to leave after letting go, but the boss stopped her and said, "Don't you want the phone anymore?"
She paused, realizing that she might have been a little impulsive, so she slowed down her tone and said, "I'm hungry. Go buy something to eat and come back later."
Qin Yanfeng walked slowly, crossed a street, found a supermarket and bought some things.
Shen Manzhi stood at the end of the alley and watched him enter the supermarket and come out carrying a bag of things, but he couldn't see clearly from a distance.
Maybe you're here to discuss business?
But what kind of business would be done in such a place?
Shen Manzhi was puzzled, but his eyes did not move away from him.
Perhaps because he was generous, he was noticed by others. Two people who came out of the supermarket not far behind him glanced at his waist intentionally or unintentionally.
Shen Manzhi remembered that the wallet Qin Yanfeng took out from the mobile phone repair shop was very heavy.
This is Golden Leopard's territory, and there are spies everywhere. She can't be too obvious so as not to attract attention.
Fortunately, there were few people on this street and there were residential buildings and alleys next to it. She walked quickly over there, but she was too late and the other party snatched Qin Yanfeng's wallet away.
The two men not only robbed wallets, but also wanted to commit crimes and beat people up, because here, the judiciary cannot restrain them.
Somehow, Qin Yanfeng didn't react. Shen Manzhi ran forward first, pulled his arm and pushed him away, swung his fist at one of them, and then tripped the other person with a spinning kick.
Shen Manzhi turned around and glanced at Qin Yanfeng, "Are you okay?"
He held the supermarket bag in his hand and looked at her for a moment, "It's okay."
As he said this, he lowered his eyes and moved her hand away from him.
Only then did Shen Manzhi notice that she was still pulling his arm. He jumped away and turned his head away uncomfortably.
The two people who stole the wallet wanted to bully the other party relying on their long-term bullying behavior, but they didn't expect to meet a tough guy, so they could only get up and run away holding each other.
Shen Manzhi followed closely into the alley.
Qin Yanfeng had a complicated expression, but he followed her into the alley without any hesitation.
When Shen Manzhi caught one of them, he didn't use any restraint in his hands and pinned him to the ground and beat him severely.
If the pampered young master was beaten by such a gangster, Shen Manzhi would be the first one to disagree.
The man howled for mercy and threw the wallet back to her, "I'm giving it back to you, please stop hitting me!"
Shen Manzhi stood up from half-kneeling on the ground, her brows and eyes were a little cold. A strong wind blew behind her, and she suddenly leaned sideways against the wall, was pulled into someone's arms, and avoided the hit of a wooden stick.
"Be careful."
The familiar smell permeated his nose again. There was a moment of bitterness in Shen Manzhi's eyes, but he didn't have the heart to think so much at the moment.
He used the force of leaning against the wall to bounce out, kicked the stick in the man's hand with his long legs, and beat the man again.
She hadn't even used up one-third of her strength to deal with this small fry.
The two men fled in panic, glaring at them several times before leaving.
We can't stay here for long. Shen Manzhi picked up the wallet on the ground and returned it to Qin Yanfeng. His eyes only fell on the other's Adam's apple, not looking at him, "Keep it."
She deliberately lowered her voice so that it sounded like a boy's.
Without the fight, the alley became quiet in an instant. Shen Manzhi wanted to leave, "Let's leave here. They should come back again."
As she turned around, her wrist was grabbed.
"Don't you recognize me?"
Qin Yanfeng's voice was cold and distant, but Shen Manzhi felt that he was complaining in a wronged manner.
The warmth between her wrists belonged to Qin Yanfeng. This long-lost feeling made her concentrate for a moment.
The situation is dangerous, we can't drag him into it.
She couldn't recognize it.
Shen Manzhi came back to his senses and heard heavy footsteps in the alley again. It was obvious that the two men had come back with their men.
Qin Yanfeng instead held her hand and hid in a secluded spot in the narrow alley of the residential building.
The uninhabited first floor was filled with miscellaneous items, and the small space was only enough for one person to hide.
Shen Manzhi was about to break free from him and leave, but Qin Yanfeng put down what he was holding, picked her up, leaned her against the wall, sat on the one-meter-high protruding window sill, and stood between her legs, with the naturally drooping curtain behind her just covering her.
Shen Manzhi subconsciously placed her hands on his shoulders and turned her head away from his gaze. In the small space, their breaths intertwined and she found it difficult to breathe.
Qin Yanfeng kept looking at her.
The disguise and appearance have changed, but those eyes cannot change.
How could he not recognize someone he had been thinking about day and night for so long, copying her facial features and depicting her figure?
People outside passed by several times, and finally the sound died down.
Qin Yanfeng put his arm around her waist and said in a hoarse voice, "You've lost weight."
Shen Manzhi looked up at him. The tenderness and distress in his eyes made her heart beat wildly. She didn't dare to look at him any longer and quickly lowered her head. The sound in her throat seemed to be blocked and she couldn't make any sound.
She finally understood why she felt sour in her heart.
She was afraid that Qin Yanfeng would really recognize her, but she was also afraid that he was so unfamiliar with her that he couldn't recognize her at all.
