1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 13 Like a Big Fool

The door of the compartment was opened and a middle-aged man in a flight attendant uniform came in.

"Comrade Zhang Ling, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to guard outside the door?"

"Uncle!" The flight attendant stood up excitedly and pointed at Lu Youyou. "I asked her a question and she kept avoiding the subject. There must be something wrong!"

The middle-aged man said seriously: "Pay attention to your address when working!"

The little girl wanted to explain herself, but the middle-aged man had her taken away.

Lu Youyou watched with interest, but she didn't know whether this person was truly impartial or just pretending.

The middle-aged man sat down with a rather warm expression. He smiled before speaking: "Comrade Lu Youyou, I have something I would like to know from you..."

After hearing the middle-aged man ask about her identity and whereabouts, Lu Youyou realized that the bag-searching process must have been completed.

There was no privacy at a time like this, but luckily she was careful and there wasn't anything inappropriate in her bag.

Lu Youyou nodded: "Just now, that comrade kept asking me to explain the crime, and I really have nothing to say."

The middle-aged man then realized how unreliable his niece was and cleared his throat awkwardly: "I'm sorry, she just started working and has a positive work attitude."

Lu Youyou continued to nod, too lazy to care. As long as she could keep a clear mind to do her work, it was fine. She was afraid that talking too much to the young man would shorten her life.

The middle-aged man asked about the details of Lu Youyou's contact with the female thief, and of course he did not forget the three "hidden weapons".

Although it is indeed strange to carry a bunch of pens with you when you go out, the law does not prohibit you from doing so, so Lu Youyou is very calm about it.

"One last question, Comrade Lu Youyou, have you ever learned Kung Fu?"

"My grandfather and mother were both doctors and taught me acupuncture. Unfortunately, I didn't have the talent and didn't learn how to give acupuncture. I'm pretty good at throwing things, but I only had a pen at the time, so I had to throw it."

The middle-aged man wrote down Lu Youyou's words one by one, and the questioning came to an end.

"We can only verify some details after we arrive at the station, so we'll have to trouble you to stay here for the rest of the journey. We hope you can cooperate with us."

Lu Youyou didn't expect such a surprise: "No problem, I will cooperate!"

A single room, she was so willing to have it, and there was someone guarding the door outside, it was too perfect.

Seeing him about to leave, Lu Youyou asked, "Please wait a moment. I want to ask how that lady is doing."

The middle-aged man smiled. This didn't need to be kept secret. "It's just a minor skin injury. It's already been treated."

Lu Youyou felt relieved and smiled brightly at the outside of the door, shutting out the incompetent rage of the relative. She could vaguely hear someone talking in the corridor.

"Uncle, what's wrong? Is there a problem? I know she's not a good person!"

"I've been told so many times to be steady and calm, yet you almost messed up on your first day. You're a flight attendant, not a police officer. Just do your job well!"

"uncle……"

The sound gradually faded away, and Lu Youyou fell into a deep sleep.

------

Nam Province, Anseong

This is a small southern town and also the final destination of this train.

Lu Youyou no longer had to go through the pain of being squeezed into the crowd and went to the railway police station surrounded by uniformed officers.

After another round of questioning, the same questions and the same answers, Lu Youyou, who had rested well, was probably the most relaxed of all the participants. She had just seen the man in the Mao suit. Although he no longer looked like he had been through a hurricane, he looked extremely haggard.

Of course the bag couldn't be given to him since the case hadn't been closed yet. He could only stare longingly at the bag in the conductor's hand, wishing he could hold it in his arms forever.

Yes, there were 100-yuan Shanghai brand watches in the bag. According to the current selling price, the amount involved in the case has exceeded 10,000 yuan. It is definitely a major case.

Lu Youyou happened to pass by as she came out of the reception room. The man in Zhongshan suit was like a frightened bird. When he saw her, he remembered that she seemed to be his savior, and he thanked Lu Youyou tremblingly.

"Thank you very much, comrade. If you hadn't helped me, I would have been doomed. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of. Um..."

Halfway through his speech, the man in Zhongshan suit actually started wiping away tears. He was just a purchasing manager and he couldn't afford the loss even if he sold the goods!
Lu Youyou was stunned. She wasn't good at comforting people. This, this, this...

"Comrade Lu!"

Lu Youyou quickly turned around and saw the middle-aged flight attendant waving at her. She immediately left the crying middle-aged man and walked over.

"Hello, any questions?"

"We've already contacted the military and verified your identity. The military procurement vehicle will be passing by later. Just follow them."

Lu Youyou hesitated a little: "I sent a telegram to my fiancé before I came here. He should come to pick me up. I wonder if he has arrived yet."

"Then I'll have someone take you to the exit and ask?"

Lu Youyou nodded and thanked him, then followed him to the exit.

Ancheng Station is very small and you can see the end at a glance, but I waited for half an hour and didn’t see a single person.

"Comrade Lu, why don't we go back first? The army's car should be here soon."

Lu Youyou didn't say anything, feeling like a fool.

After returning home, the young police officer poured her a glass of water and kindly comforted her: "Comrade Lu, don't worry. The army is just like us police officers. Things can happen at any time and they are busy day and night."

Lu Youyou curled the corners of her mouth. She didn't want to care about Gu Qingye anymore. Not only was she tired, but she was also feeling rotten.

After a while, a military truck stopped at the door and a woman in her forties hurried in. She glanced around the hall and her eyes were fixed in one direction.

"Is this Comrade Lu Youyou?" Seeing Lu Youyou nod, he smiled and said, "My name is Li Sanhua, and I'm the lover of the battalion commander."

Without waiting for Lu Youyou to respond, he continued, "Captain Gu went on a temporary mission and asked me to pick you up before he left."

As she spoke, Li Sanhua leaned in and whispered, "I heard there was a train robbery. You must be scared, sister. It's okay. I'll go tell them!"

Lu Youyou didn't say a word during the whole process. She just watched Li Sanhua rush to negotiate with the police station in a loud voice, saying that a military wife must never be wronged.

Lu Youyou's lips curled up slightly, revealing her first smile since arriving in Ancheng. Thinking of the unlucky old lady on the train, Li Sanhua seemed to be more enthusiastic than her.

Before leaving, Lu Youyou was told that this was a major serial case and that no details could be disclosed until it was completely solved.

This is nothing, and Lu Youyou understands it, but it may not be the same for the family members who came out to purchase on the truck.

No one wants to deal with the police, and the same goes for military families. They may be afraid, but they always feel uneasy when they enter the police station.

When we heard that someone was coming to pick someone up, and that it was Captain Gu’s fiancée, everyone started talking about it.

Gu Qingye was well-known in the military/region. He had made great military achievements at a young age. His fiancée was always a topic of conversation whether she bullied others or was bullied.
