Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure

It's getting late.

After eating and drinking, Bai Xi and Xiao Rui also planned to say goodbye and leave.

Before leaving, Mr. Lu, who seemed to be a little tired and had lost interest, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Bai girl, I just said that I would give you these brands in the future without asking for your opinion. Are you willing to accept them..."

Bai Xi stood at the door, looked up at the plaque tower that looked a little worn under the light, smiled, and nodded to Lu San: "Yes! Of course! My family has always been in need of something to protect the house."

If you hang this up at home, any demons and monsters that pass by will have to march in step.

Bai Xi suddenly thought of something and took out the golden-red badge from her bag again. She said, "But Grandpa Lu, I'm a person who values ​​​​reciprocity."

She placed the badge in her palm, handed it forward, and placed it in front of Lu San.

The old man reached out and picked it up, looking at her with some confusion.

"What do you mean girl?"

"I'm jealous of your plaque, and you like my badge too. So, let's exchange. You can keep it for me first, let me polish it and experience the latest craftsmanship. When the time comes, just send it to me along with the plaque."

Lu San rubbed the touch of his palm and understood Bai Xi's intention.

Are you afraid that he has no more thoughts?

I'm not that fragile, old man.

"What if I haven't left in eight or ten years?"

"Then I'll come back often to see if you've lost my badge."

A hint of playfulness appeared on Bai Xi's face.

A smile also appeared on Lu San's face, and there was a hint of calmness and relief on his haggard face.

"Then it's settled."

......

Bai Xi stayed here for another two days.

With the news coming from Shanghai, this pleasant vacation may come to an end for the time being.

Before leaving, Bai Xi went to the courtyard to see Mr. Lu again, then drank two pots of tea while the old man pretended to be impatient but was actually very happy chattering. He then asked Xiao Rui to drive around to the front of "Hongqi Village" and had another meal in Zhao Wawa's store.

That B&B is good in every way except that the food is really bad. These days, Lao Zhao's local restaurant has almost become Baixi's dining hall.

During the meal, Bai Xi curiously chatted with the quiet "Zhao Baby".

"Grandpa Zhao, were you in the kitchen before?"

Zhao Wawa's eyes were rolling up to the sky.

"I drive a tank!"

Hmm...it seems reasonable that the kitchen staff would drive tanks!

Bai Xi pondered for a moment and suddenly realized.

Afterwards, the two went to the airport and started their journey back to Shanghai.

......

"XI·BAI... She's really beautiful, but she looks different than when she first enrolled. Did she have any surgery?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are not here to judge the appearance of Asians. Your arrogance makes me doubt your professionalism."

"Okay, you continue."

On the other side of the world, unknown to Bai Xi, in a dimly lit conference room, a special discussion was taking place.

There are those in their forties and fifties with potbellies, and there are also those in their twenties and thirties who are smart and capable.

But one thing that is without exception is their skin color.

Cigarettes, cigars, whiskey, smoke swirled in the conference room and then slowly rose under the lights.

When Bai Xi was on the plane, it was late at night and the people attending the meeting were not in good condition.

There were a lot of documents on their conference table, and it was obvious that "XI·BAI" would not be their only topic tonight.

"She had always been a mediocre student, but her personality suddenly changed during her second semester of her freshman year. She only associated with high-ranking officials. Intelligence officials suspect she has joined an important project team in Xia Country, involved in the development of the latest fifth-generation aircraft, and is a key figure in it."

"Isn't the age and gender a bit unreasonable? At this age, and a woman, she's the key figure?"

"Most brilliant scientists achieve their most famous achievements in their youth. Only mediocre people believe that they can achieve success by simply persevering. As for women, is the example of Marie Curie sufficient?"

"Ok! Any more?"

"Two months ago, we had a failed operation. Our bait accidentally discovered that she and Hang Zhou, Xia Country's chief designer specializing in fifth-generation aircraft, appeared in the same place. And based on the behavioral analysis in the photos, she is the core."

"It was at that time that we came to the conclusion that she was a key figure in the latest fifth-generation aircraft project."

"However, the operation went awry afterwards, and almost all of our manpower in the Magic City was eliminated. This girl named Bai's importance has increased even more. Otherwise, it's hard to explain why the other side invested so much protection in her."

"About a week ago, this 'Bai' completely disappeared from our sight. We used a lot of connections to speculate that it might have gone to the Northeast."

Everyone present here is an elite intelligence officer. They may not know everything about a certain country, but at least in certain special areas, they can react quickly.

"Northeast China? Fifth-generation aircraft? Shenyang Aircraft Corporation?"

"Yes, around the same time she disappeared, Shenyang's air traffic control system underwent intensive adjustments, with some areas blocked. Shenyang Aircraft Corporation's alert level was significantly increased, and they suspected aircraft testing, but were unable to obtain further intelligence."

"I'm not surprised they're researching fifth-generation fighter jets. After all, it's something countless countries around the world dream of. But with all due respect, given their technological level, especially stealth technology and engines, another 20 years is probably enough."

"20 years? Will they still be around in 20 years?"

"That's true, hahahaha..."

The leader said helplessly, "Everyone, when you report, are you going to just say 'the other party can't build it in 20 years'? Let's face it, we must get more specific information at all costs. The officials in Congress can't wait any longer."

The other person turned to the second page of information and raised his eyebrows.

"Look what I found! This girl is also very rich, with shares in LVMH! Oh, but it has been resold. What a pity, otherwise we would have had a piece of this cake."

"Look, the Black Rose Foundation is hers too. She also likes to attend auctions and owns quite a few properties. Doesn't this sound a bit like a female Iron Man?"

"This is a good thing. Compared to those old men who have almost no daily life, such a person will have a more responsible life trajectory. She will definitely leave more traces in her life and on the Internet."

"I have some good people under my command, network information security officers, you know."

"Be careful, the other party must have a lot of hooks around him."

"Don't worry, times have changed. All the world's online information is right under our noses."

"Is it possible to instigate something? Perhaps all we need is an invitation from Harvard, or a green card, and they'll obediently send someone out. We've had success with that before."

"You can try it."

"The Black Rose Foundation is a good breakthrough..."

"It's already being done....Honey is always better than bullets, and it's cheaper."

"What about the people around her? What about her family? Is there any chance?"

"We've identified two or three people who have connections with her..."
