"Brother Hui, it seems you really are a short-lived ghost. So much time has passed without any news. I know you like women, so I'll burn a few beauties down to keep you company!"

This is a recent news item.

Upon seeing these messages, Chen Hui was suddenly moved; this kid had always been thinking of him.

He then replied with a short message.

"Even if you die, I won't die!"

Watching Chen Hui and Peng Ying chat, Qi Zheng, Director Feng, and Tan Zhigang exchanged glances, completely bewildered by this way of communicating.

Previously, Director Feng had been considering whether to have someone impersonate Chen Hui and contact Peng Ying to sound out her intentions.

Looking back now, I'm glad I didn't do that. With that kind of tone, no one could replace me.

"Xiaohui, is your reply alright?"

Tan Zhigang asked, puzzled.

A confident smile appeared on Chen Hui's lips.

"Master, don't worry. Peng Ying and I have always spoken like this. If we changed our tone, then people would suspect us!"

After sending the text message, Chen Hui immediately turned off his phone.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Director Qi, this is how I show that I'm in a bad situation, being surrounded and intercepted by the police, and unable to keep my phone on for an extended period of time."

Upon hearing this, the group suddenly realized what was going on.

Feng Lun couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Indeed, someone who could successfully infiltrate twice and escape unscathed was no ordinary person; he had considered everything very thoroughly.

"So when do you plan to turn it on?"

"Two days, at least two days. It hasn't been turned on for so long, we can't just turn it on suddenly!"

All three respected his decision and nodded.

For the past two days, Chen Hui has been alone in the backyard, eating, drinking, and relieving himself there. He gets up early every morning to exercise and then goes to sleep.

Qi Zheng and Tan Zhigang had many things to deal with every day. After two days, the three of them came to the courtyard and waited for Chen Hui to start the filming.

"What's this smell?"

As soon as he entered the door, Qi Zheng frowned and pinched his nose.

"Xiao Hui, did you put sauerkraut in here?"

The group followed the scent and their eyes all fell on Chen Hui.

Tan Zhigang looked at the clothes on his body, his brows furrowed slightly, and he showed a look of surprise.

"Xiaohui, you've been wearing these same clothes for two days, haven't you? Haven't you changed or showered in the past two days? Didn't you bring any clothes?"

"Master, I'm going to see Peng Ying. I've been on the run for so long, how could anyone tell I've been chased by the police if I didn't look disheveled?"

Everyone suddenly understood upon hearing this.

Yes, as a wanted criminal, he would be like a frightened bird. Under normal circumstances, he would definitely not dare to enter the city, let alone check into a hotel to take a shower and sleep.

It's normal for someone to smell bad and be covered in dust; if they were clean and tidy and didn't look like a wanted criminal, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

That's when they noticed that Chen Hui had barely eaten any of the meals they'd brought him these past few days; he'd only taken a bite of each dish.

He wanted to make himself appear malnourished and unwell.

Feng Lun took all of this in stride and grew very fond of him, finding him a natural fit to be a special agent.

"Old Tan, you've really found a good apprentice. If you train him, Xiao Hui will definitely become an excellent special agent. I think this is where he truly shines..."

Tan Zhigang rolled his eyes and interrupted him.

"Director Feng, stop! Xiao Hui works for our Criminal Investigation Department in Southern Xinjiang Province. Asking him for help is fine, but if you're planning to get him into your Special Affairs Bureau, I won't allow it!"

Feng Lun glared at him and said irritably.

"Look at you, I haven't even said anything yet and you're already refusing. That's so petty of you!"

Damn it, they're trying to poach my boyfriend right in front of me, and they even called me petty.

If you're so capable, transfer your best intelligence officer from the Special Affairs Bureau to my Criminal Investigation Department and see if you're still being petty.

Despite his inner grumbling, Tan Zhigang was still quite proud. His apprentice being noticed by the Special Affairs Bureau was an affirmation of his abilities.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Hui took out his phone and turned it back on.

Sure enough, another series of text message notifications sounded.

"Brother Hui, why is your phone off again?"

"Say something! Are you sending me your last words?"

……

Chen Hui's lips twitched, and he quickly replied.

"Damn it, I'm being tracked by the police, and you're making me keep my phone on for extended periods? Are you afraid the police won't know my location?"

The phone rang less than a minute after the text message was sent.

He deliberately waited for about ten seconds before answering the phone, his voice low and deep.

"Hello!"

"Brother Hui, it really is you! You're alive! That's wonderful!"

Peng Ying immediately became excited.

"Of course I'm alive! That's it, I can't keep this on for long!"

"etc!"

Peng Ying quickly called out to him, fearing he would hang up the phone; it was just too difficult to get in touch with him.

"Brother Hui, where are you?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Hui did not respond.

"Brother Hui, are you still listening?"

"exist!"

Peng Ying immediately realized what was going on.

"Brother Hui, we're brothers, don't you trust me? You have nowhere to go in China, come to Northern Shan State!"

"You come to the Northern Shan Kingdom because you want me to entrust my life to you?"

"I was able to escape the police time and time again because I didn't trust anyone; I only trusted myself."

Peng Ying was stunned when she heard this, not expecting Chen Hui to not believe her.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After being on the run for so long, if you easily trust others, you wouldn't be able to escape time and time again.

He took a deep breath and said seriously.

"Brother Hui, I won't ask where you are anymore, but I sincerely want you to come to Northern Shan State. Everything will be safe here. Believe me, I will never betray you in this lifetime. You will always be my brother!"

After a long silence, Chen Hui finally spoke.

"Where do I come from?"

"Where are you closest to the border?"

"Ruicheng!"

"Then get to Ruicheng, Qingshi Town right away. I'll meet you there!"

"I'm walking, not taking a car! It's over 50 kilometers, and I won't get there until at least tomorrow!"

"..."

"I'm hanging up now, I have to turn off my phone. I'll contact you later!"

Qi Zheng, Tan Zhigang, and Feng Lun all greatly admired his performance.

Even real wanted criminals aren't this vigilant.

If you didn't know his background, you would suspect that he was a wanted criminal who had gone through all that.

Too cautious!

Qingshi Town is a small town located within the jurisdiction of Ruicheng and bordering the border.

This town has a population of just over 10,000, making it a suitable place for illegal border crossings.

More than 110 kilometers away from Qingshi Town, Chen Hui immediately set off on foot.

Peng Ying and his group were no ordinary people; they had to be flawless, and he even took a shortcut, crossing mountains and valleys to get there.
