Chapter 64 - 64

Chapter 64 DiscoveryThat day, after finishing work, it was still early, so Yun Ting decided to go for a walk in the mountains.There was no one on the mountain at the moment, so she activated Wood Element Ability.A moment later, she was startled. There were people there, and they were deep in the mountains. They couldn't possibly be villagers. Obviously, these people were not good people. She hesitated whether to go and investigate, but what if she was discovered?After much hesitation, I decided to go and take a look, probably because it was related to the investigation by Duan Xingye and his team.If things go wrong, she can simply hide in the space before being discovered.Without hesitation, she carefully made her way towards the location she sensed.As she got closer, she became more cautious. She heard voices saying, "This batch of goods can't afford any mistakes. We have to hurry. We've been spotted, and the checks are very strict.""Third Brother, let's stop doing this, shall we? These are all things from our country..." Yun Tingfound the voice very familiar. Just as he was about to listen more closely, his foot accidentally stepped on a dry branch, "Crunch...""who?"Yun Ting had already slipped into her spatial dimension the instant she stepped on the dry branch. Inside, she patted her chest and said, "That scared me to death... I almost got discovered."Judging from what that person said, the things belonging to the country are nothing more than cultural relics and antiques. Could this group of people be people who sell national cultural relics?Combined with the one she found last time, she became even more certain that Duan Xingye and the others' investigation was definitely related to this matter.That voice sounds so familiar, who could it be?"Third Brother, there's no one here. It's probably some kind of animal making that sound."Yun Ting could see or hear sounds from outside while inside the space, so as soon as she heard a sound, she held her breath and listened intently."Okay, come back at nine o'clock tonight to take it away."After a rustling sound, the group left.Yun Ting didn't come out immediately, worried that they might pretend to leave and then suddenly return, which would be a disaster for her.Inside the space, she didn't sit idle either, taking the opportunity to do some work. She'd recently accumulated quite a bit of food, but she didn't dare sell too much at once. Sigh…This time, when she went to make the transaction, she would accept half cash and half antiques and other valuables. She had alreadytold Uncle Chen about it last time, and he said to have his people collect more and store some in their online spaces, so they would make a fortune later.She didn't stay long before leaving the space. Such a big matter required her to inform Duan Xingye; she couldn't let those people take the cultural relics away.She observed for a moment, determined the location, and quickly went down the mountain.Back in the courtyard, she ran into Yan Zheng, who was quite surprised to see her carrying a basket on her back. " Educated Youth Yun? Where have you been?" he asked with a smile.Yun Ting suddenly lost her focus; that voice... it really sounded like..."What's wrong? Educated Youth Yun?""Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking about something.""Oh, are you going up the mountain with that basket on your back?" The other person seemed to be testing the waters a bit."Yeah, I originally planned to go up the mountain, but after wandering around, I didn't find anything good, and I didn't dare to go deep into the mountains, so I had to turn back," Yun Ting replied with a smile.But he already knew the answer in his heart: the voice he had just heard belonged to Yan Zheng.This puzzled her. She remembered that the original plot didn't mention that Yan Zheng was involved in this matter! It only said that he returned to the city early due to special reasons. Now it seemed that the special reason was this matter."Going into the deep mountains is definitely not something you can do casually; it's too dangerous."Yun Ting nodded with a smile, but inwardly she was thinking, "Of course we can't go in! You guys are the danger! What incredible luck she has! She keeps running into everything."Yun Ting didn't go out immediately, after all, doing so would arouse Yan Zheng's suspicion.She waited a while, then peeked out to see if Yan Zheng was outside, only to meet Zhou Yang's questioning gaze." Educated Youth Yun, what are you doing?"Yun Ting gave an awkward smile. "No, I just heard a noise and thought it was someone else! Oh, it's you! What are you doing standing here?""I just came in from outside, why am I standing here?""Alright, go back and eat your meal!" Yun Tingwaved his hand impatiently.This kid still wants to get to the bottom of things.Yun Ting quickly pushed the cart out and bumped into Li Zhaodi, but she just smiled and nodded before going back to her room.Yun Ting pedaled her bicycle quickly toward town. She thought she was "quickly," but others probably thought she was just practicing."Hey... isn't that Young Yun from Educated Youth? Why is she practicing driving now?" an uncle from the village asked, looking at Yun Tingin the distance with a puzzled expression."What driving practice? Isn't that going to town? What are you doing so late?""It's probably something urgent."When Yun Ting arrived in town, he was already drenched in sweat. The weather was so hot, it was unbearable.I went to the address Duan Xingye had given me, and he should be back home by now.They arrived at a courtyard and knocked on the door.Who is it?Yun Ting frowned. Had she remembered wrong? It wasn't Duan Xingye …"Oh! It's you! Educated Youth Yun."Yun Ting looked closely and exclaimed, "Oh! It'sDuan Xingye's childhood friend, what's his name again...?""Hello, I'm looking for Duan Xingye, is he not here?""Yes, come in!"Yun Ting didn't move. She didn't hear Duan Xingye's voice and wasn't sure if he was really there. She didn't rashly follow Han Yang into the house. After all, she wasn't very familiar with him and didn't know him well.Han Yang took a few steps and realized that Yun Ting hadn't followed. He turned around and saw that Yun Ting was still at the door!Come in!"Who's here?" Duan Xingye had just come out of the shower, dressed casually in a set of clothes, with water droplets still dripping from her hair.He looked up towards the doorway, and when he saw the girl who haunted his dreams, he was overjoyed."Xiaoyun, why are you here at this hour? Is something urgent?" Her previously happy expression immediately turned tense.The reason he came to see him at this time must be something important.Yun Ting glanced at Han Yang, and Duan Xingyeimmediately understood, saying to Han Yang, "You go in first."Han Yang felt wronged. Did he look like a bad guy? Why was this little educated youth, Yun, so wary of him?Yun Ting glanced around, then pulled Duan Xingye into the courtyard. She didn't seem to care, but Duan Xingye's heart raced as he looked at her fair little hand holding his arm."After I finished work today, I went up the mountain and found a group of people. I overheard them saying that they would take this batch of goods away at nine o'clock tonight to avoid any complications. I guessed that it might be related to the matter you investigated last time, so I came to inform you."Duan Xingye frowned at her, "How could you go into the deep mountains alone, discover them, and still dare to get close and eavesdrop? Are you out of your mind?""Hey, Duan Xingye, that's not the point. Hurry up and make the arrangements! I'm going back, it's getting late." Yun Ting was indeed a little anxious. It was about to get dark, and even though she was a girl with some skills, she was still a little scared!"By the way, there's a male Educated Youth inour courtyard named Yan Zheng. I think he's in there too. I recognized his voice when I heard him. He's also from Capital City.""Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I'll take you."
