Chapter 243 Half Footprint
Although Cheng Sinian usually looks lazy, when he really works, his work efficiency is extremely high.
Regarding Huayue's mother, he brought back some news that night.
"Qiao Yu, Huayue's mother's matter may not be as simple as we think."
Cheng Sinian and Luo Zhenzhen just came back from outside and went straight to Jiang Zhan and Qiao Yu's room.His face was slightly solemn.
"What?" Qiao Yu raised her eyebrows, "It's very complicated?"
Cheng Sinian sat down on a chair beside him, held Luo Zhenzhen on his lap, and nodded, "Indeed."
"And this matter, I guess, is probably related to the poisoning of the 331st Legion."
When Qiao Yu heard this, she immediately became energetic and raised her chin slightly, "Tell me more specifically."
Cheng Sinian thought for a while, as if considering his words, and then said in a deep voice: "Zhen Zhen and I just went to inquire about the address of Huayue's biological mother. We found that she now lives near the Eastern Military Region."
"So we followed the clues and went to look around her house."
"Although the house she lived in was inconspicuous and in a remote location, and looked poor, we took a look inside through the window and found that the furniture used in her home was not as shabby as it looked on the outside. .”
"And there are two five-liter barrels of mineral water on the ground."
"Two five-liter barrels of mineral water?"
"Yes." Cheng Sinian nodded, "And it's still unopened."
Qiao Yu raised her eyebrows when she heard this, then this was indeed worth a lot of money.
but……
"Then this only proves that she may have made some kind of deal with someone. Why do you think she can be related to the 331st Legion?"
"Because we found half a footprint at the door of her room." Cheng Sinian pursed his lips and his eyes darkened.
footprint?Qiao Yu frowned and gestured with her eyes for him to continue.
"When we were in Mingxia Mountain, Achuan and I observed the mercenaries who followed us on missions. Then we discovered that although they were all under Commander Xie, the items they used were different."
"Whether it's weapons, clothing or boots, it's all different."
"We privately asked the team leader at the time, and according to him, all their armaments were uniformly issued by the Eastern Military Region. However, due to the shortage of materials in the end of the world, there will indeed be subtle differences in the equipment styles between the various legions."
"But this is just enough to tell which legion the mercenary belongs to even if the badge is lost."
When Qiao Yu heard this, she understood something in her heart, "So you mean, the pattern of the half of the footprints is the style of the military boots of the 331st Legion?"
Cheng Sinian curled his lips and said, "You can teach a child."
Qiao Yu didn't feel happy at all after hearing his compliment. She only felt a chill down her spine.
If he is really a member of the 331st Legion, what is his purpose?
First, he drugged the mercenaries of the 331st Legion, and then he tried to find a way to contact Huayue's biological mother...
Although Qiao Yu was not sure whether it was the same person who did these two things.
But no matter what, it was such a coincidence that these things happened around them.
Each of these incidents made Qiao Yu feel that the other party was coming for them.
But what about the purpose?
They didn't expose any special abilities or space in the base.
Even if it shows a little edge in completing the task, it is not too unbelievable.
Why on earth are these people targeting them?
Is it just because their appearance is too outstanding?
When Cheng Sinian saw that Qiao Yu didn't speak, he continued: "After discovering this footprint, I went to the neighbor's house around the woman and asked about it, and found that she had indeed been in close contact with a man recently."
"But none of her neighbors had seen the man's full face because he would always go by at night and cover his face."
"Huayue's biological mother was also in the flesh business after the apocalypse. Although she is old and beautiful, her fees are low, so she can barely get a few customers."
"The neighbors knew about her situation, so they didn't pay much attention to this man at first, thinking he was her benefactor. But later they discovered that this man came here almost every day recently, and every time he came, he would carry something on his back. You carry a big bag. Then when you leave, the bag becomes empty."
"Because the previous patrons of that woman were all poor people with little crystal cores and supplies, so this man stood out."
"Has anyone heard what they were talking about?" Qiao Yu frowned, a hint of complexity flashing in her eyes.
Qiao Yu had seen the houses in that residential area. The quality of the houses was not very good and the sound insulation was very poor.
If there is some conversation between them, there is a good chance that the neighbors will overhear it.
But unfortunately, Cheng Sinian shook his head solemnly.
"Unfortunately, not."
"I asked almost all the neighbors around her, and no one heard them talking. Even if I walked by their door, I couldn't hear any movement inside the house."
"So I guess, either that man is a spiritual alien; or, just like when we were at Cao Mute's place before, they communicated through sign language or writing."
Qiao Yu pursed her lips when she heard this, but did not express an opinion for the time being, but continued to ask: "Are there any other discoveries?"
"The other news is nothing special." Cheng Sinian frowned and thought carefully, "It's just that the woman seems to have made a fortune recently. She went to the market to buy a lot of things."
"It's the furniture I just mentioned. I heard from the neighbors that they were all newly purchased by her in the past two days..."
After hearing these words, Qiao Yu's expression became more solemn.
Although this information may not seem like much at first glance, it actually aroused Qiao Yu's vigilance even more.
If Huayue's biological mother was just sent to keep an eye on him, it would be impossible for that man to pay such a large amount of reward.
But if they are asking for something else, what do they want?
Could it be that Huayue's biological mother made a promise to that man...or gave her some information that the man wanted?
Gee.
What bothers Qiao Yu most is the current situation of "the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light".
This will make her feel very uneasy.
"What? Is there something wrong?" Cheng Sinian couldn't help but become confused when he saw Qiao Yu's expression getting darker and darker.
Qiao Yu lowered her eyelashes and shook her head, "I just have a bad feeling."
After Qiao Yu finished speaking, she looked at Cheng Sinian again and asked in a suspicious tone: "Are you really sure that the half of the footprints you found came from the 331st Legion?"
