On the evening of December 28, the news that Ji Yuansheng had returned to Dragon City spread rapidly.
At four o'clock in the afternoon on December 28th, non-national time, He Xiong led a group of soldiers on the plane back to Longcheng.
At 6:30 a.m. Beijing time on December 29th, the plane arrived at Longcheng Airport, and soldiers from Huaguo, all dressed in military uniforms, got off the plane together in the cool morning mist.
"What's the situation?" A commuter who got up early and got on the bus held fried dough sticks in his mouth, stared stupidly at the army green armed tanks passing by, and then looked behind the line, huh! Such a long queue
"This, this is the tank unit?"
Another man said: "Nonsense! So many tanks are not tank troops, what kind of troops are they? But what happened to us? Even the army is dispatched?"
"I don't know... It's been a long time."
"I'll take a picture and send it to Moments!"
"Ah, I want to post too!"
On the other side, He Zhai.
Ji Yu opened his eyes from sleep, looked up at the time dimly, and it was only early seven o'clock.
He snorted twice, turned over and wanted to continue sleeping, but just turned his head, and before closing his eyes, he met a pair of cute big black eyes, and those big eyes were looking at him without blinking, seeing himself Looking at the past, it is still sweetly bent.
Ji Yu's heart skipped a beat, he quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but the fact that he woke up has been discovered by the owner of these big eyes, even if he closes his eyes, it is meaningless, within a minute, a soft Huhu's little hand stuck to his ear, pinching it for a while, and stretching out the little finger curiously trying to penetrate his ear canal.
Ji Yu closed her eyes and remained motionless: "..."
The naughty little hand on the ear moved down and covered his lips, then pulled his lips with his fingers, touched his teeth, and finally pushed hard, as if he wanted to put his hand into Ji Yu's mouth.
Ji Yu remained motionless with her eyes closed: "..."
The troublesome little hand was taken back, and there was no movement for a while.
Just when Ji Yu thought he could fall back to sleep after dodging a catastrophe, a soft belly covered his face, his little feet pressed against his chest, and his two little hands hugged his head.
Ji Yu: "..."
He was overwhelmed and finally chose to surrender. He scratched Xiao Universe's belly, and said in the child's innocent laughter, "You little villain, you only know how to torment me."
He Zhou on the side also opened his eyes: "He's messing with you again? Are you making milk? I'll go."
"No, I'll just go, you continue to sleep."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head and scratched Xiao Universe's nose with his fingers, "Little villain."
With an aha, Xiaoyu buried his face in Ji Yu's shoulder, and rubbed his forehead against his neck.
Ji Yu rubbed Xiao Universe's head, and patted him on the back a few times.
Although Xiao Cosmos didn't cry or make a fuss after waking up yesterday, he knew that Xiao Cosmos must have been frightened, so he was particularly clingy to him.
After hugging Xiao Universe vigorously, Ji Yu took him downstairs.
When he reached the stairs, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.
After what happened yesterday, there are many more guards outside, and the main house has returned to normal. Not only are people allowed to enter and exit normally, but there are also several more gatekeepers. Therefore, the first floor should be a bit popular, but it is quiet now.
Where has everyone gone
And why is the door still closed
Ji Yu walked lightly, walked to a window cautiously, only poked his head for a glance, then froze in place—why are there so many soldiers in the yard? The entire main house seemed to be surrounded.
"Grandpa~" Xiaoyu blinked, stretched out his small fist and knocked aggressively on the glass window twice.
"grandfather?"
Ji Yu took a closer look, and sure enough, at the door, he saw He Xiong talking to the soldiers with his hands behind his back. But shouldn't He Xiong be abroad? He hesitated for a moment, walked to the door and opened it, raised his head, and met He Xiong's eyes.
He Xiong paused, gestured to everyone, and walked straight towards Jiyu.
When he got closer, Ji Yu nodded and said hello: "Uncle."
He Xiong glanced at the ring on Ji Yu's hand, and snorted dissatisfiedly: "Yes."
Then, seemingly inadvertently, he hugged Xiaoyu from Jiyu's hand, bumped it twice and said, "It's heavy again. Why didn't you call me, huh?"
Xiaoyu's eyes were bent, and he shouted crisply: "Grandpa!"
"Good boy." The corners of He Xiong's lips rose, and there was a lot of joy in his eyes.
But right now it's not suitable for chatting and reminiscing about the old days, so He Xiong quickly put away his smile and said to Ji Yu, "Where's He Zhou?"
"Still asleep."
Ji Yu couldn't help explaining, "He was so busy yesterday that he didn't sleep until late..."
He Xiong hummed softly, didn't say anything to He Zhou, and continued to say to Ji Yu: "Just stay at home and watch the universe carefully for the past two days, and don't go out."
Ji Yu blinked blankly.
Seeing this, He Xiong couldn't help frowning: "Didn't you instigate Ji Heng?"
"Instigate, instigate rebellion?"
Ji Yu was taken aback, "Wait, you mean that Ji Heng and you..." He paused, and thought of a word, "Surrendered?"
In yesterday's phone call, although Ji Yu made a deal with Ji Heng, it was only to increase chips for the subsequent counterattack. After all, Ji Heng is an unstable factor and cannot be fully trusted. Will put all the treasure on Ji Heng.
But he never expected that Ji Heng would be so impatient, he hung up the phone and turned around to contact the "people above".
He is so anxious, could it be that... His thoughts were discovered by Ji Yuansheng
—
Ji Yuansheng had discovered Ji Heng's thoughts long ago, and even Ji Yuansheng warned him, but he didn't do anything else to Ji Heng other than the warning, but disappeared from everyone's sight again, like a monster lurking underwater. The giant python will attack people at some point.
This "not knowing" is the most frightening.
At least for Ji Heng, this kind of "unknowing" makes him restless, and he can't sleep well because he has a guilty conscience.
Moreover, Ji Heng knew his own level and his abilities well, so he knew that he could not rely on himself alone, and he had to have a strong backing to remove Ji Yuansheng, an uncontrollable landmine, so that he could feel at ease.
Therefore, he chose to defect to the country.
He submitted all the information he knew, including Ji Yuansheng's properties, secret bases, close contacts, etc. - most of which were sorted out by Xue Zong.
Ji Heng thought, although Dragon City is big, it is only a city after all, if Ji Yuansheng can escape under strict defense, then no one in this world will be able to sanction him.
He took a deep breath, stood on the 127th floor of Ji's Group Building, and looked down at the scenery of Dragon City through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Looking at the tanks and troops on the road, Ji Heng pursed his lips and clenched his hand hanging by his side.
— This time, Ji Yuansheng must be caught.
—
"Longhu Road, Dingyuan Road, Fuchen Road..."
The slightly hoarse male voice reported the names of several roads, paused, and concluded directly, "There is no road in the city." After a pause, "The same is true in the suburbs and rural areas."
"High-speed rail, airports, and ports are all under strict scrutiny."
"We have three underground bases exposed, and we cannot leave by helicopter."
He added, "The ground bases are all exposed."
Within ten minutes—
"The underground bases are all exposed."
"so."
Ji Yuansheng suddenly opened his mouth, said two words, then closed his eyes and raised his head, moving his neck, "You mean we are trapped here, don't you?"
The man sitting in front of the screen said hoarsely, "Yes."
Ji Yuansheng didn't say anything, he closed his eyes, and the two Wenwan walnuts in his hands rubbed against each other, creaking, and even because of his excessive strength, the patina that had been panned out burst and fell fine debris.
"What are the chances that we'll stay here until the troops leave undetected?"
"That depends on when the troops leave."
The man turned around and looked at Ji Yuansheng, "After all, this is the information age. It is almost impossible to survive for a long time without making a sound. There will always be traces of existence, and... don't you care about things abroad?"
Hearing that Ji Yuansheng opened his eyes, his eyes fell faintly outside the window separated by a layer of tulle.
The place they were in at this time was a high-end villa area in the north of the city. In order not to be discovered, the villa under their feet was rented under He Yunru's name.
He Yunru, also known as Runrun's mother.
A part of Ji Yuansheng's original plan was also a part of failure.
"I see." Ji Yuansheng said.
"So? What's your plan?"
Ji Yuansheng stood up, got up and walked to the window.
He didn't like this feeling of hiding and hiding. Avoiding and moving around abroad is a game with ease, but here, it is a helpless forced choice.
He hates being forced to do things, extremely disgusted.
"Of course it is to break the deadlock."
Ji Yuansheng snorted, "So what if there are so many people here? It's just a bluff."
"You have to know that everyone living here is the weakness of this city and the weakness of this country..."
"And I have no weakness."
"Still crazy."

Beginning in the morning of December 29, Longcheng conducted a comprehensive investigation.
From the morning of December 29th to the end of the 29th, several underground bases were investigated, and a total of 28 companies, large and small, were closed for investigation.
December 30th was calm and calm, which was a rare good weather.
The investigation is still going on, and companies have been suspended for investigation one after another, and relevant personnel have been interrogated.
On the morning of December 31, everything was as usual, all investigations were carried out step by step, and the investigation and interrogation of relevant personnel were also closely followed. After two days of public opinion and government appeasement, the people of Longcheng have gradually become accustomed to this large-scale investigation. The sense of panic about the arrival of troops disappeared.
At noon on December 31, everything was normal.
At 8:00 pm on December 31, a Xiyin 7N7 civil airliner deviated from the correct route, broke into the sky above Dragon City, swooped down, and crashed into the landmark building of Dragon City—Global Tower.
Everyone living in Dragon City heard a terrifying bang.
At this point, the peace of Dragon City was completely broken.
