Don't worry, mother, I've brought the golden finger to change your fate
Chapter 57 The Secret of an Old Friend
The villagers gathered in the courtyard of the village chief's house, nervously looking at the stranger who suddenly appeared. Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan were also full of curiosity and vigilance towards this man who claimed to be an old friend of the mysterious staff.
"You said you were an old friend of the mysterious staff, then why did you help us?" Lin Ruowei asked.
The stranger smiled, a mysterious light flashing in his eyes. "Because I can't stand what he did. I used to be his friend, but he went astray, and now I want to help you expose his true face."
"What kind of help can you provide?" Gu Yan asked.
The stranger pulled out a map from his bosom and unfolded it in front of everyone: "This is the secret base of the mysterious staff and some records of his whereabouts. I also know some of his weaknesses, which can help you formulate a more effective plan."
Lin Ruowei looked at the map carefully, and her mind gradually became clear: "This information is too important. With this, we can have a targeted approach."
Gu Yan also nodded in agreement: "Yes, this information is very useful to us."
The village chief stepped forward and patted the stranger on the shoulder. "Since you are willing to help us, we will naturally ensure your safety. Next, we need to discuss the plan in detail."
Everyone sat together and seriously discussed how to use this intelligence to take action. The stranger explained in detail the location of each base and the activities of the mysterious staff. Everyone put forward their own suggestions, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed.
"This guy is so cunning that he can hide so deeply." Wang Zhong exclaimed.
"But no matter how cunning a fox is, it can't escape a good hunter." Lin Ruowei said with a smile.
As night fell again, everyone made a detailed plan and prepared to take action the next day. Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan returned to their room and continued to discuss the details.
"Do you think this stranger is trustworthy?" Gu Yan asked.
Lin Ruowei pondered for a moment: "I think we can give it a try, but we must always remain vigilant."
Gu Yan nodded: "That's right, we can't take it lightly."
The next morning, everyone set out as planned, splitting into several groups to head to the base of the mysterious staff. Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan led a group to the nearest base, and the stranger accompanied them.
They approached the stronghold cautiously and found that it was heavily guarded. Lin Ruowei signaled everyone to stop and carefully observe the surrounding situation.
"Looks like we have to find a way to distract them." Gu Yan whispered.
Lin Ruowei nodded: "We can make some noise to attract them over, and then take the opportunity to sneak in."
They quietly went around to the other side of the stronghold and used stones and branches to make some noises. When the guards heard the noises, they all ran over to check, and Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan took the opportunity to sneak into the stronghold.
The stronghold was brightly lit, and several men in black were busy. Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan hid in the dark and saw them sorting some documents and supplies.
"We have to find those documents and see if there is any useful information." Lin Ruowei whispered.
The two approached quietly, and just as they were about to take action, they suddenly heard footsteps. Lin Ruowei's heart tightened, and she quickly pulled Gu Yan to hide aside.
A tall man in black walked in and said coldly, "Hurry up, the mysterious staff will be here soon."
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan looked at each other and knew that they didn't have much time. While the men in black were not paying attention, they acted quickly and got several important documents.
"Let's go!" Lin Ruowei whispered.
The two quickly evacuated the base and returned to the village. Everyone was relieved to see them return safely.
"What did you find?" asked the village chief.
Lin Ruowei unfolded the file, pointed at the contents and said, "These are some plans and contact lists of the mysterious staff. With these, we can better deal with it."
Gu Yan also nodded: "Yes, this information is very useful to us."
Just as everyone was rejoicing, the stranger suddenly revealed a mysterious smile: "In fact, I have a more important piece of information to tell you."
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan's hearts tightened: "What information?"
"The true identity of the mysterious aide is not just a minister. He has a bigger secret. This secret is related to the safety of the entire court." The stranger said slowly.
"What secret?" Everyone held their breath, waiting for the answer.
"He is one of the emperor's confidants, but in fact he is planning a shocking coup." said the stranger.
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan were shocked: "A coup?"
"That's right. If we don't act in time, not only your village but the entire country will fall into chaos." The stranger said seriously.
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan looked at each other and knew in their hearts that their mission was far more difficult and dangerous than they had imagined.
