After speaking, he carried the package into the office.

Deputy Chief Geng followed him inside. "What did you want to say?"

Qiao Shaoguo set the package down and lit a cigarette for himself. "The incident at the forest farm... I’m afraid it’s not simple."

Deputy Chief Geng frowned. "Has Public Security found anything?"

Qiao Shaoguo took a drag from his cigarette. "Both the driver and his assistant are old hands. How could they make such a low-level mistake? Besides, the ropes on the truck are supposed to be checked every ti. How could it be such a coincidence?"

「anwhile,」 Huo Jingrui had also arrived at the accident site at the forest farm. He ca with a later group of comrades from the county Public Security, ostensibly hitching a ride to visit his partner.

After arriving, he re-examined the ropes used to tie the logs and made a significant discovery. However, he didn’t publicize it. Instead, he exchanged a aningful glance with the Public Security officer in charge of the accident investigation while they took a smoke break.

Huo Jingrui shared his findings, "The ropes have been tampered with. It’s not visible to the naked eye, but they were likely soaked in a special chemical. You can take a sample for testing."

He thought for a mont before adding, "Also, that man who’s always with the farm director—the one said to be the director’s brother-in-law—seems a bit strange. You could have soone discretely investigate his recent activities."

The two didn’t talk for long. Afterward, Huo Jingrui started walking towards the Agricultural Reclamation Group. After all, if you’re going to put on an act, you might as well make it convincing.

The official reason given for Huo Jingrui’s presence was that Vice Factory Director Huo’s partner had been sent to the countryside here, and he had co to take care of her.

Yunyi had just finished examining a patient when she saw Huo Jingrui enter from outside. "Why are you here?"

She had just been to the county town yesterday. How did this guy get here now?

The patient, who was quite familiar with Yunyi, asked, "Doctor Chu, who is this?"

Yunyi smiled and introduced him. "Auntie, this is my partner."

Hearing he was Yunyi’s partner, the old woman looked sowhat displeased. She had been planning to introduce her nephew to Doctor Chu, never expecting she already had a partner.

However, she didn’t say anything else. After a glance at the tall man, she left.

Once Yunyi saw the patient leave, she glanced out the door before asking, "What’s going on? Why did you co?"

Huo Jingrui lowered his voice. "Those people have made their move. Sothing was stolen from the mountain. Their current task is to create chaos throughout the county to distract Public Security. Their ultimate goal is still unclear."

Yunyi understood the gravity of the situation. "Wait for a mont. I’ll hand over my work, and then you can co back to the small courtyard with ."

Huo Jingrui nodded.

Yunyi found Chen Xiaojuan. "Nurse Chen, my partner is here. I need to head back for a bit. When Doctor Qiu returns, please let him know for ."

When Chen Xiaojuan heard Yunyi’s partner had arrived, she looked in that direction. "Where is your partner?"

Yunyi lightly tapped her on the forehead. "Just focus on preparing your dicines."

With that, she left, smiling, and led Huo Jingrui, who was waiting outside, back to the rear courtyard.

After entering the courtyard, they didn’t close the main gate. However, once inside the house, they both paid close attention to any sounds from outside, wary of anyone entering.

Yunyi asked, "Is there anything you need my cooperation for?"

Huo Jingrui lowered his voice. "I suspect they have people at both the forest farm and Hua’an Farm Reclamation. The earlier explosion at the reservoir and this accident at the forest farm... I’m afraid those people were behind both."

After a mont of contemplation, Yunyi asked, "And their motive?"

Huo Jingrui was silent for a mont, then sothing seed to click. "I get it now. They’re trying to create a diversion, to shift everyone’s attention here. Their real targets are likely the enterprises in the county."
