Fast Travel Absurdity Sutra

Qian Tong followed Xia Jun into the department store first. Chen Fang followed Song Xiangye in a little while later. These two had the audacity to actually arrange their meeting at the department store.

However, the two did not interfere with each other, and it seemed that they had already memorized the itinerary.

In the men's clothing area, Xia Jun finally saw Zhang Shengli.

Zhang Shengli wore a dark blue work suit, a pair of glasses, and a gray-brown baseball cap with a red five-pointed star on the front. He looked like an ordinary worker.

However, it was exactly the secret code for contacting Xia Jun.

Xia Jun was wearing a black Mao suit, gray overalls, and a red scarf today, looking clean and fashionable. Liu Jun had instructed him to wear these clothes, and even Liu Jun had given them to him.

Qian Shengli went out early in the morning.

Last night, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. Since Liu Jun recruited him into the organization four years ago, Liu Jun has never given him any tasks.

He received a subsidy from Liu Jun every month, as well as a large sum of resettlement money for just joining the organization, which made his life very comfortable in recent years.

However, when he thought of Liu Jun's promise to him that he would take him away from the Flower Country and go to the Island Country as long as the operation was completed, his heart began to pound.

He had heard that the island nation was full of bright lights, feasting, and living a life of drunkenness and dreams, which really made him yearn for it. In addition, Liu Jun would occasionally send him some foreign wine, foreign cigarettes, and various foods from the island nation, which filled his heart with longing.

He was even a little impatient.

Unfortunately, Liu Jun said to wait for the opportunity.

Now, the time has finally come.

He woke up early in the morning, said goodbye to his wife, and headed out. He even thought, "I'm not going to take my old woman with me." They had only one son, who had been married before he joined the enemy spy organization and moved in with her. Back then, his family was poor, and he was the only one working.

The father of his daughter-in-law was the director of a textile factory, and his son went to work there after he got married. He could only go home a few times a year, and Qian Shengli did not see any subsidies. He watched coldly as his son was raised by others. After he gritted his teeth and joined the enemy spy, his living standard improved rapidly. He warned his wife not to subsidize his son. His wife had no job, so she naturally did not dare to disobey him. In addition, his son's behavior was really too much, and his wife was heartbroken and really stopped communicating with her son. Therefore,

The two of them closed the door and lived their good lives in silence.

However, although they maintained their marriage on the surface, Qian Shengli actually felt disgusted with his wife deep down in his heart.

This emotion surged into his heart from time to time, making him feel extremely depressed.

Sometimes, when it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would even fantasize that if he could go to that legendary island country one day, perhaps he would no longer choose to get married, but would make as many girlfriends as he pleased and live a happy and unrestrained life.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

Early that morning, the sun shone on the bustling streets and alleys.

Qian Shengli was walking down the street, his stomach growling. As he passed a bustling breakfast stall, the aroma of food filled his nose, drawing him to a halt.

After some thought, he decided to sit down and enjoy a delicious breakfast.

A moment later, the stall owner brought out a bowl of steaming soy milk and three big, white and plump meat buns.

Qian Shengli gobbled the food up like a whirlwind, then stood up contentedly and continued walking slowly towards the department store.

Today is a special day for Qian Shengli - a day off.

He deliberately chose this time to go out, and it looked like he wanted to relax his body and mind.

When he stepped into the spacious and bright lobby of the department store, he was instantly attracted by the dazzling array of goods.

I first wandered aimlessly around the first and second floors, admiring the various exquisite accessories and fashionable clothes.

But not long after, he lost interest and headed straight for the men's clothing section on the fourth floor.

As soon as he entered the men's clothing area, Qian Shengli's sharp eyes quickly scanned the surroundings like a scanner.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a tall man with outstanding temperament.

That's right!

This person was the person he came to meet this time - Xia Jun.

He seemed to be wandering around aimlessly, but in fact he had a clear goal and was approaching Xia Jun step by step.

When he finally came to Xia Jun as if nothing had happened, he picked up a shirt from the shelf and said in a low voice:

"Comrade, are you here to buy shirts too?"

Hearing this, Xia Jun nodded slightly, then responded slightly nervously:

"Yes, I brought all the money and prepared to buy things long ago. And, I really want to buy a white shirt."

At this moment, Qian Shengli's face instantly revealed a hint of joy that was hard to conceal, and he was secretly happy in his heart:

The codes all matched!

So he quickly replied, "Oh, white shirts are not very good. They get dirty too easily. In comparison, gray shirts are more resistant to stains."

Hearing this, Xia Jun, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he took a small step forward and asked softly:

"Excuse me, are you Comrade Qian Shengli?"

Seeing this, Qian Shengli nodded without hesitation and asked in a very low voice:

"So, you are Comrade Xia Jun?"

At this point, after some careful testing and confirmation, the two of them finally completed the connection mission in a true sense.

At this moment, Xia Jun, who had originally wanted to spend more time shopping in the mall, no longer had the leisure time.

He glanced at Qian Shengli quickly, who immediately understood what he meant and suggested in a low voice, "How about this, why don't we just leave here and take a walk in the park?"

When Qian Tongxian calmly stepped into the clothing area, the two men were holding shirts as a signal to prepare for contact.

He strolled leisurely through the men's clothing area, seemingly picking out shirts nonchalantly, but in fact he was secretly observing the movements around him.

Although Qian Shengli spoke to Xia Jun in a very low voice, as if afraid of being heard by others, this was not difficult for Qian Tongxian who had learned lip reading.

With his keen observation skills and mastery of lip reading techniques, he easily deciphered the specific content of the two people's communication.

Just as the two were about to leave the clothing area, Qian Tong decisively left the area first.

He knew very well that if he continued to stay there, it would likely alert the target of surveillance and cause the mission to fail.

After careful consideration, Qian Tong decided to exchange positions with Chen Fang to avoid any doubts from the other party.

At almost the same time, Song Xiang, who was located in the food area, also successfully completed the connection with Qian Geming.

The entire operation is progressing in an orderly manner, with every link closely linked to each other and no mistakes allowed.

Qian Geming was wearing a gray jacket and holding a newspaper in his hand, pretending to pick out food ingredients.

He saw Song Xiang wearing a white shirt with palace sleeves and small blue flowers and white shoes, and her eyes were shining with excitement.

He pretended to continue selecting ingredients, then slowly walked to Song Xiang and whispered to her:

"Comrade, why is the yeast smell of the bread on the shelves here so weak? Do you know which one is good?"

When Song Xiang heard this, her whole body trembled slightly.

"I think the 'Chun Xiang Lao Jiao Yeast' one is pretty good. I tell you, you can't buy it in department stores. The bread they make with their yeast has a special aroma, like the sun rising in the east and the rain in the west."

"Oh, what a coincidence! I was just looking for the yeast that says 'sunrise in the east and rain in the west'."

Qian Revolution smiled and continued to answer.

Song Xiang trembled slightly and whispered her last sentence:

"Haha, looks like we've arrived at 'Yeast Fate'! But that shop isn't easy to find. I heard it's hidden next to a 'rat hole,' but don't go into one."

Qian Geming's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Well, I have to be careful then, lest I fail to find the yeast and end up getting into trouble. I think finding the yeast will be a bit of a hassle, but I don't want people to think I'm a couple of idiots just mumbling nonsense here."

After hearing this, Song Xiang began to tremble all over. She glanced at Qian Geming and couldn't help muttering to herself.

"So soon? I... I'm a little scared."

"What are you afraid of? We're here, just follow the plan. This is a rare opportunity, we must succeed."

Qian Geming's extremely sensitive ears caught the slightest sound fluctuations in the wind at once, and he easily heard Song Xiang's low voice muttering.

At this moment, the two of them officially connected.

However, what Qian Geming had not expected was that Liu Jun actually sent such a cowardly person.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel an irrepressible irritation in his heart, and subconsciously revealed an obvious impatience.

"I really don't know what Liu Jun was thinking! He actually sent such a sissy guy here, and his courage is as small as a needle!"

Qian Geming was thinking to himself while staring at Song Xiang in front of him with a fierce look.

His originally gentle eyes now flashed with a heart-pounding cold light like a hungry wolf.

Being stared at by Qian Geming with such a sharp gaze, Song Xiang felt as if she had suddenly fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body began to tremble involuntarily.

She shrank back in fear, trying to avoid the other person's terrifying gaze.

After a long while, when she finally heard Qian Geming introduce himself, she was still in a trance. After a long time, she stammered as if she had just woken up from a dream and responded, "Oh... Oh, my name is Song Xiang. I'm an educated youth sent down from Liujia Village."

"Oh, so you are an educated youth."

Qian Geming frowned slightly, looking up and down at the girl in front of him who seemed a little at a loss, with a deep look of disgust revealed on his face without any concealment.

In his opinion, this girl not only looked frail and didn't look like she was capable of doing any heavy work, but she was also so timid that she was completely useless.

"It's getting late, and I haven't had a hot meal tonight. Let's go and find a place to fill our stomachs first."

After saying this, Qian Geming strode forward, not even waiting for Song Xiang behind him. Obviously, he had no interest in this new acquaintance.

However, Liu Jun's plan was very important, and he would not be able to complete it without someone cooperating with him.

Forget it. Anyway, they are just pretending to be on a blind date now. If they ask the girl to come to him tomorrow, she can be his "date".

"Oh, Song Xiang, let's go. It's dinner time now. I'll treat you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant."

The two walked out of the department store, one in front and one behind.

At this moment, Chen Fang and Qian Tong just happened to pass by each other at the entrance of the department store.
