Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

When Mu Xi heard Lin Qi's urging, she didn't continue to care about it, but lowered her head and continued to unpack the package.

Packages were opened one after another, revealing books inside. The atmosphere at the scene changed from being quiet at the beginning to gradually becoming more and more crowded with soldiers and their families discussing in low voices.

The more Lin Qi looked, the uglier her expression became, and she felt more and more uneasy. There was only one package left, and she still hadn't found any contraband. Moreover, the previous packages were all books. She couldn't rely on these books to fabricate the story that Mu Xi had accepted bribes.

Lin Qi cursed inwardly, "What a loser! He has such a good relationship, but he doesn't know how to use it. With so many packages, he only gives me these books that I can't eat or take with me." If it were me, I would definitely not want these things. Wouldn't it be better to replace them with malted milk, jewelry, necklaces, skirts, clothes, etc.?

Mu Xi took the time to look up at Lin Qi. Seeing Lin Qi's distorted face, Mu Xi spoke in a good mood and asked with a smile, "Comrade Lin Qi, I have opened so many packages, but still can't find what you said. If you want to stop the bet and apologize to me now, I may consider it."

When Lin Qi heard this, she was a little moved, but when she looked at the package still under Mu Xi's butt and Mu Xi's rosy face, jealousy flashed in Lin Qi's eyes. Thinking of that man's solemn promise, Lin Qi decided to take a gamble. If she won, she would have a better future. If she lost, she would just lose a job. Anyway, that man promised that even if she failed, he would find her a job.

So Lin Qi had no worries. Although she had a bad feeling that something went wrong, she still wanted to take a chance.

"I don't need it. Let's check the last package quickly. If Comrade Mu Xi is tired, I can do it for you."

Lin Qi's eyes were full of expectation, and she looked eager to try. In the eyes of the military families watching, they felt that Lin Qi was a little aggressive. After all, Mu Xi had already given Lin Qi a way out. If Lin Qi agreed, it would be considered a reconciliation. As colleagues in the art troupe, it would be better not to make things so ugly.

Mu Xi smiled when she heard Lin Qi's words, and handed over the package she had been sitting on. "I happen to be a little tired, so please open it."

When Mu Xi handed the package over again, a touch of white powder silently sprinkled on Lin Qi.

When Lin Qi heard Mu Xi's words, she couldn't wait to open the package, but found that what she was looking for was still not inside.

"how is this possible?"

"How could this be?"

"There should be contraband in here."

......

Lin Qi sat down on the ground in a daze, muttering to herself.

Mu Xi looked at Lin Qi like this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she looked at Lin Qi with a smile.

Of course there are no prohibited items. Those things are now lying quietly in their own space.

Just when he was sitting on the package just now, the things inside were swapped. But from Lin Qi's murmurs just now, he knew that there was a mastermind behind this. Mu Xi thought of the powder he had just sprinkled.

She whispered in Lin Qi's ear with a smile, and to outsiders it looked like Mu Xi was trying to help Lin Qi up.

Mu Xi taunted in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Are you disappointed that you didn't see any contraband? You are now a discarded pawn. Do you think the people behind you will care about you? Don't dream about it anymore. You are now of no use at all. You will just stay in the stinking ditch for the rest of your life. After all, a person with a bad reputation and no job will never be able to turn things around in the future."

Then Mu Xi said in her normal voice, "Comrade Lin Qi, you should get up first. Now that you have lost our bet, do you want to fulfill your promise and leave here?"

When Lin Qi heard Mu Xi's words, under the stimulation of the powder, she suddenly pushed Mu Xi away and roared at Mu Xi with a ferocious face.

"Will not!"

"I will not be abandoned."

"That person clearly told me that he had put the contraband in your package, so why did you take it out? Wouldn't it be better if you just let us figure it out? Why are you so troublesome?"

"Even if I leave here, that person has promised to arrange a job for me. I will not be abandoned."

"It's all your fault. If you had just let me do the calculation, nothing else would have happened. It's all because of you and your family that you blocked other people's way. You deserve to be calculated..."

......

Lin Qi looked like a mad woman, and yelled out all her plans. A man hidden among the military dependents and soldiers lowered his head with a flash of anger in his eyes, and cursed in his heart, "What a fool! He is incapable of accomplishing anything, and is always causing trouble!"

Mu Xi heard what she wanted to hear. Lin Qi had finished the first half of the performance, and it was time for her to say a few words.

Mu Xi looked at Lin Qi with shock and confusion, "You...Comrade Lin Qi, what are you talking about? I don't understand a word you said. Are you trying to frame me? Is there someone plotting behind my back..."

The leaders who were watching the show on the side also realized that this was unusual and there must be something behind it!

When Uncle Mu heard Lin Qi's roar, he also thought of something. His eyes flickered and he clenched his fists, as if he was enduring something.

Mu Chen also reacted at this time, his eyes were sharp, and he said coldly, "Comrade Lin Qi, please explain what it means to have put contraband into the package, and what about that person? If you can't explain it clearly, I have reason to suspect that you are colluding with spies and want to persecute loyal people of the country."

Lin Qi woke up after screaming. Thinking about what she had just said and hearing Mu Chen's questioning, Lin Qi's face suddenly turned pale. She was confused and didn't know what to do.

He whispered, "How could it become like this..."

Captain Deng took a few steps forward with a grim look on his face. He knew that it was best not to get involved at this time, but Lin Qi was his distant cousin. If this matter was not made clear, he would also be implicated. A cold light flashed in Captain Deng's eyes. It was really unlucky. If he was implicated, don't blame him for killing his own cousin for the sake of justice.

"Since Lin Qi lost the bet, it seems there is something behind it. Let me have someone investigate this matter. Mu Xi, if you have nothing to do, just take your package and go back."

Mu Xi heard that Captain Deng seemed to be handling the matter fairly, but in fact he wanted to protect Lin Qi, or find an opportunity to warn Lin Qi and remove himself from the matter.

Uncle Mu saw that someone wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter, so he immediately stood up and said calmly, "Since this matter involves me, let the military district interrogate me. I will notify the Inspectorate to send someone to investigate what's going on. After all, this is an attempt to frame a senior leader of a military district. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either.

Comrade Lin Qi and I don't know each other. She suddenly showed up to frame me. Maybe she is really colluding with the spies. Let's get someone to investigate."

After Uncle Mu's words, several other leaders, whether out of concern for Uncle Mu or really wanting to investigate what was going on, even the leaders who usually disagreed with Uncle Mu nodded in agreement. After all, Uncle Mu was one of the top leaders in the military region, and there were only two people above him who had higher positions than Uncle Mu, and the rest were either on the same level as Uncle Mu or were not as good as him.

Captain Deng wanted to say something, but seeing that the big bosses in the military region had already spoken, he could only hold back his dissatisfaction. However, he would look at Mu Xi with a cold look from time to time, blaming Mu Xi for making a big deal out of it. Although he knew that Mu Xi was innocent in this matter, Captain Deng could not help but vent his anger on Mu Xi when he thought that he might be implicated.

Just like that, the farce ended with Lin Qi being arrested and interrogated.

Mu Xi and Mu Chen packed up their things quickly and went home with them.

The military dependents and soldiers who were watching the incident saw that it was over and there was nothing more to watch, so they all dispersed and went home to cook. When they left, they discussed the matter in groups of three or five. Most of them felt that Lin Qi was too bad. How could she frame others?

There were also some people who were jealous of Mu Xi and had bad thoughts in their minds. It was a pity that they failed to bring Mu Xi down and she got away with it.

But more people sympathized with Mu Xi for suffering such an unexpected disaster, and some also lamented that Mu Xi was so knowledgeable that he even secretly cursed at the profound books he had read.

When Mu Xi went back, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she still had to find out who was trying to frame the Mu family. Although the matter had been exposed this time and the Mu family was safe for a short period of time, they could not be on guard every day. Also, the military district might not be able to find the mastermind behind the scenes and might also find someone to take the blame.

So Mu Xi planned to do it herself, and at the same time called the system back to let the system monitor the surroundings for her, giving her an extra layer of security.

So Mu Xi went to the art troupe the next day to ask for leave, saying that she was frightened by Lin Qi's report yesterday and needed to recuperate for a few days. Minister Cui thought that Mu Xi had suffered a great crime, and there was another person who was also from the art troupe and was a relative of Director Deng. The situation was in chaos now, so it would be better to let Mu Xi stay at home to avoid the troubles and be quiet. Therefore, he gave Mu Xi a half-month leave.

Since that day when Uncle Mu and other leaders took Lin Qi away, he has not returned for several days. He has been busy and no one knows how things are going. He has not told the Mu family any news.
