Xiao Chen didn't know either. He simply packed up his things. In fact, it wasn't much. It was just a backpack. Xiao Chen locked the door and went to the agent to return the house. As for the extra rent, it didn't matter.
After doing all this, Xiao Chen saw Xia Xibin driving the car with Song Huawu to the community. Xiao Chen got in the car, and the three of them drove to Songning.
Looking at the community behind him for the last time, Xiao Chen also understood that perhaps, he would never come here again in his life.
The three returned to Songning City early the next morning, but Xiao Chen didn't dare to return directly to Cheng Mengying's villa. Instead, he went to Song Huawu and Xia Xibin's residence. He planned to settle down first.
"Xiao Chen, what's your plan?" Back in the room, Song Huawu changed into a set of home clothes and lay on the sofa casually. She asked Xiao Chen, who was watching the news.
"I don't know. To be honest, I'm a little confused during this time. I don't know what to do next, but one thing is for sure. I guess my identity is going to be exposed. I can't keep wearing a mask." Xiao Chen sighed. "Now, I want to take advantage of my position to quickly investigate the disappearance of my father. After that, I think I may go to find my father!"
"I said before that I would help you investigate, but Uncle Xiao's situation is a bit complicated. We don't have enough authority. At least, we need Team B." Song Huawu nodded. "But it shouldn't be that fast. Xia Xibin and I will help. We should be able to hold on for a while!"
"I hope so …" Xiao Chen nodded. He didn't want to run away without preparation.
To Xiao Chen's surprise, he received a call from Xia Zhili early the next morning. His identity was now the Deputy Team Leader of Team B of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau!
"Jiannan, I hope you don't let me down. My ranking has also been promoted. I am now the Deputy Bureau Chief in charge of Team B. Of course, Team C will be handed over. Do you have any good candidates for Team C?" Xia Zhili asked.
"My relationship with Hua Wu has been pretty good lately, and she's qualified enough. I think it shouldn't be a problem for her to be promoted to team leader of Team C." Xiao Chen knew that Xia Zhili wanted to settle everything before handing over power. However, this method made Xiao Chen speechless.
"Well, the leader of Team C can be Song Huawu, but what about the deputy leader? Do you have a good candidate in mind? " Xia Zhili nodded. In fact, he was quite fond of Song Hua Wu. He just wanted to test Xiao Chen and see what he thought.
Sure enough, Xiao Chen had also recommended Song Huawu. That meant that Xiao Chen had already won over Song Huawu! Thinking of this, Xia Zhili was very satisfied with Xiao Chen. He thought to himself, This Yang Jiannan is really good at picking up girls. In Lan City, he even picked up a girl named Tian Sour-Sour.
"Deputy leader, let's go with that Xiao Meng. Xia Xibin's qualifications are still not enough. If we promote him, there will probably be objections. Also, Deputy Bureau Chief Xia, I think we should balance things out. If the person replacing you finds out that the entire Team C is not his people, do you think he will take the opportunity to replace you? If Hua Wu is replaced, it won't be good … "Xiao Chen reminded.
"Oh … Jiannan, you're right!" Xia Zhili was stunned. He was too involved in the situation to see clearly. He had already been blinded by victory. Because of the encryption chip, he had been in the limelight in the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. Now that he thought about it carefully, it was indeed true. If the Deputy Bureau Chief did not have any control over Team C, he would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble.
On the contrary, if he was given the position of Deputy Leader, he probably would not say anything. After all, Song Huawu was previously the Deputy Leader. Moreover, she was one of the top Deputy Leaders. It was only natural for her to take over the position of Leader. There was no problem, and he couldn't deny it.
"Deputy Bureau Chief Xia, please consider it. I was just giving you a suggestion." Xiao Chen said respectfully.
"En, alright. I'll get Xia Xibin to pick up your and Hua Wu's new documents in a while and send them over to you. During this period, have a good rest! There will definitely be a mission after the New Year. "Xia Zhili said.
"I understand." Xiao Chen nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Chen told Song Huawu about Xia Zhili's intentions. Song Huawu did not expect things to happen so quickly. Moreover, she was actually going to be the Team C Leader! One had to know that there was a huge difference between a Team Leader and a Deputy Team Leader. If she had the identity of a Team Leader, perhaps the strength of her words at the previous summit would be different.
At noon, Xia Xibin returned with two IDs. One was Xiao Chen's and the other was Song Huawu's. It was worth mentioning that, for some unknown reason, Xia Xibin had two photos on his IDs. One was of Yang Tan himself, and the other was of Xiao Qiang wearing a mask. Moreover, behind Yang Jiannan's name, there was also the word "Xiao Qiang" in parentheses!
This was a good thing. Xiao Chen was not in a hurry to take off his mask and continue to pretend to be Xiao Qiang!
In fact, this was because the credit this time was established by the identity of "Xiao Qiang". Now, the identity of Xiao Qiang was even more famous than the identity of Yang Jiannan. When Xia Zhili walked to the Supernatural Investigation Bureau's headquarters and mentioned Yang Jiannan, others might not know, but when he mentioned Xiao Qiang, everyone knew that he was the great hero who had found the encrypted chip!
In the beginning, this was a name used by the Supernatural Investigation Bureau when they announced the commendation. This was because Xiao Qiang was written in Dr. Xu's thank-you letter. Everyone's first impression of him was Xiao Qiang.
Therefore, Xia Zhili, who was such a pretentious and flamboyant person, of course, would do everything possible to let everyone see his credit. Hence, he directly recorded the identity of Xiao Qiang in Yang Jiannan's file. This way, Xiao Qiang would become a real identity. At least there was a file.
Xiao Chen looked at his documents and was somewhat surprised. This way, all his previous worries were gone. Even if he wore the Xiao Qiang mask, others would think that he did not take it off because of the mission.
Song Huawu grabbed Xiao Chen's documents and looked at them. When she saw Xiao Qiang's photo next to it, she couldn't help but smile. "It seems that your identity is confirmed. You don't have to worry about anything in the future."
"Yes, but so what?" Xiao Chen shrugged. "At most, it's another identity, but it's not my own identity."
"Then, do you want to date?" Song Huawu asked.
"Date what?" Xiao Chen was stunned. "Date?"
"Get lost … In the future, we'll do missions together." Song Huawu smiled.
"We're not in the same team anymore. How can we do missions together?" Xiao Chen asked.
"You'll know when the time comes. Although I'm a team leader, I don't think I'll be of much use." Song Huawu shrugged and said, "Just like what you said just now, I'm already considered to be on your side. That means that I'm on Xia Zhili's side. The new deputy director will probably use a deputy team leader, and I don't have anything to do. It's better to form a team with you. Then, find a chance to transfer me to Team B and wait for you to take over as team leader."
"Gosh, you're thinking too far ahead. It's hard to say if I can do it until then." Xiao Chen sighed. "Oh right, you stay at home. I'll go out and take a look at the Warrior Guild."
"Oh? You're going to investigate your father? "Song Huawu immediately guessed Xiao Chen's intention.
"En, but on the surface, I'm going to see Chen Huan Ling. He's Yang Tan's father. I have to show my face no matter what," Xiao Chen said.
"I know the relationship between Yang Tan and Chen Huan Ling. They don't have a good relationship. Yang Tan doesn't like Chen Huan Ling. The two of them have a similar cooperative relationship on the surface," Song Huawu explained.
"En, I understand." Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I'll go and take a look."
"Do you need me to accompany you?" Song Huawu asked.
"Even if your relationship with me has eased, it's not good for you to always be by my side. This isn't your personality." Xiao Chen quickly refused. "I'm afraid that someone will suspect something."
"This has always been my character!" Song Huawu smiled and said, "Let me tell you, I'm actually very clingy. I didn't have anyone to be clingy before, but now I like to be clingy to you."
"Uh …" Xiao Chen looked at Song Huawu. He didn't know whether she was telling the truth or not.
"I'm just doing missions with you to get experience. I'll be promoted quickly. Maybe in a few years, I'll be Deputy Director Song. Even if something happens to you, I can cover you secretly!" Song Huawu said proudly.
"Well, that's what you mean … Then I'm leaving." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and went out the door.
Walking on the streets of Songning City again, Xiao Chen had a feeling that it was a lifetime ago. It hadn't been long since he left, but in his memory, it seemed to be too long. Thinking of himself and Tang Tang selling breakfast on the morning market street, Xiao Chen was filled with emotions for a while. I don't know how Kerr Lin is doing. Will she be in trouble again?
Xiao Chen wasn't worried about others, but Kerr Lin seemed to be particularly unlucky and liked to be in trouble.
It was already the end of the New Year, and the streets of Songning City were bustling. When passing by the morning market street, Xiao Chen got out of the car and walked into the morning market street. At this time, there were people coming and going. There were many stalls selling New Year's goods. Most of the vendors who usually sold other things temporarily changed their business to sell New Year's goods.
There was a New Year's atmosphere here. Xiao Chen couldn't help but think of the Xiao family's New Year's situation. How did the Xiao family spend it every year?
Xiao Chen thought about it. Perhaps in his memory, the New Year's of the Xiao family stayed at the time when he was young. At that time, his father was still alive and had not disappeared. Every year at the end of the New Year, his father would take him and Xiao Xiao out to buy New Year's goods and firecrackers.
At that time, although Xiao Chen also exercised every day, he didn't have as many worries as when he grew up. Xiao Xiao didn't neglect him either. She still stuck to him and followed him, just like Song Huawu now.
So, Xiao Chen thought that Song Huawu was an orphan since childhood and had a brother complex. She felt like a big brother looking after her, and she liked this feeling.
