Shu Ran carefully put away the letter that was handed to her and then left.

She also remembered to go and play with the furry animals at home for a while.

I've been away for quite a while, and I've neglected my furry friends at home.

It might need another bath; it gets covered in fur after playing!

The next morning, Yunxi woke Shuran up after returning from her morning exercise.

"what time is it?"

With a hoarse voice and sleepy eyes, Shu Ran habitually stays in bed when the weather gets cold.

"No rush, it's only eight o'clock."

Yunxi changed her clothes, sat on the bed, and raised her hand to brush away Shuran's messy long hair.

"rise!"

Without hesitation, Shu Ran threw off the covers and got out of bed.

If I hesitate for even a second longer, I won't want to get up.

Yunxi chuckled softly, feeling more and more comfortable living here.

When they were together, there was no longer the deliberate, insincere attempt to please or seduce.

"Go have breakfast first, I'll come downstairs after I've finished cleaning up!"

She got out of bed and rushed to the bathroom, leaving behind a single sentence before closing the door.

Yunxi didn't rush downstairs. She got up, sat on the sofa, took out her tablet, and started reading "Modern Materials Science," waiting for Shuran to come downstairs with her.

Fifteen minutes later, I washed up, changed clothes, and wiped my face.

The speed is quite fast.

After breakfast, the two went for a walk, and when it was almost time, they drove to the racecourse.

It was quite a coincidence; there were a few matches today, so it wasn't unusual for me to come and take a look.

"Hello, the weather is really nice today, sunny and cloudy. Give me four tickets."

The ticket seller was a young man in his thirties, wearing glasses and thin. When he heard the familiar voice, his hand holding the ticket paused slightly, and he looked up at Shu Ran outside the window.

"Boss, which horse do you like? Let me introduce it to you."

"Haha, this is my first time here, just browsing. My lucky number is 7, whether I can guess it or not depends on luck. Or, a red horse would be nice too. I like red."

"Then you must place a bet today, boss. I have inside information. The horse with the most potential, number 11, happens to be brown-red."

……

Everything matched up. Shu Ran, using the money as a cover, handed the letter to the person inside the window.

Nodding, Shu Ran left the window and turned to enter the racecourse.

Let's go all the way with this act. She's never gambled on horses before, so we can give it a try.

Horse number 11 is white.

Shu Ran glanced at it and then looked away, placing her bet on her lucky number 7, which was a brown-red horse.

It looks very agile, with long and powerful limbs. Although its muscles are not the most prominent, it gives people the feeling of being very healthy.

One thousand Hong Kong dollars were poured out directly.

Without checking the odds, Shu Ran put away the ticket: "Would you like to place a bet?"

Yunxi guessed the general result at a glance, realizing that spiritual energy was being used to cheat. She shook her head and said, "I'm not interested. You can leave now. I think number 7 is fine."

When the competition started, the crowd was boisterous, and the scene was lively and exciting.

The smells were so mixed that Shu Ran couldn't stand it. She handed the ticket to A Wu and asked him to check the results and come back to tell her.

Unable to get a good seat due to a last-minute decision, Shu Ran, who was somewhat pampered, was unwilling to compromise her comfort.

I'm not interested in following up on the results anymore.

Sure enough, she didn't like this kind of intense and complicated atmosphere.

"Here, try this."

Yunxi handed her a handkerchief.

"what is this?"

Shu Ran took it and held it to her nose. The faint scent of cedarwood instantly filled her nostrils, followed by a refreshing minty aroma that relieved her discomfort.

"It isolates complex odors."

Yunxi added.

"What flavor do you like? I'll make it for you when we get back."

This is another product made through weapon crafting. After arriving here, Yunxi used things she had never seen before and materials stored in her space to create these products at will.

This piece has been fitted with a piece of silk and a piece of temperature-regulating fabric...

I added all sorts of scraps and bits into it, and the resulting pot of stew was a motley collection of things.

There are handkerchiefs to block out smells, earmuffs to block out sound, and veils to block out dust...

"This tastes great, very refreshing."

After leaving the racecourse, Shu Ran felt much better; the air seemed much fresher.

"Let's go straight back! Uncle Ling will come to pick up A-Wu later."

"Yes, master."

Back in Repulse Bay, we went to the annex first.

After checking on the injuries of the others as usual, he turned to Wei Jing'an and explained the situation of going out.

"I have successfully completed my mission; the message has been delivered."

"Thank you, Comrade Shu and Comrade Yun."

The three thanked him in unison, while Ye Xuan remained in his room, unable to move.

"It's nothing serious. Now that I've brought you back, I'll take full responsibility."

Shu Ran waved her hand and continued, "Just let me know if you need anything. I have some connections in Hong Kong, so I'll definitely help if I can. By the way, my shipping company has ships departing every few days this month, passing through ports in the mainland. I can arrange that if you need it."

Just as he was worrying about how to get back to the mainland, Wei Jing'an's eyes shone with an alarming light.

"Thank you very much, Comrade Shu. I will trouble you again once I have arranged my time."

"It's not a big deal. Although I'm in the port city and can't go back to the motherland to spend those tough years with her, I'm very willing to contribute to the development of the motherland."

Shu Ran felt worried when she thought about the few storage bags she hadn't yet sent out.

How can I deliver the item to a reliable person without leaving a trace, and ideally without it being related to her current identity?

If all else fails, you'll have to use up one more chance.

The "Anywhere Door" is incredibly useful.

Her thoughts were wandering, but seeing the grateful smile on the face of the 1.85-meter-tall soldier in front of her, Shu Ran brought her thoughts back.

Sure enough, netizens were right; all the handsome guys have been handed over to the state.

For a fleeting moment, as if sensing something, Yunxi subtly drew attention with her voice, interrupting their eye contact.

"It's getting late, Ranran, we should go back for dinner."

He then turned to look at the three people opposite him, especially glancing at Wei Jing'an a few more times: "Comrades, please take good care of your injuries. If you need anything, just tell me. I'm relatively free."

Shu Ran was indeed a bit hungry, and upon hearing Yunxi's next words, she nodded: "Yes, anyone at home will do. We'll head back first. Comrades, please take good care of yourselves. Health is the foundation of everything, and every talented person is needed by the country. Only by taking good care of yourselves can you serve the country."

So let's not do anything for now. We used several pills to finally save them.

Guo Zilin, in particular, was physically weak. Although he was not injured, he suffered the most severe physical damage besides Ye Xuan.

If it weren't for the removal of the cold and dampness that had seeped into his bones, Guo Zilin would have lived for at most another ten years, and would have continued to suffer from the torment of cold and dampness.

Back in the main building, Shu Ran didn't have time to eat. She rushed upstairs to take a shower before coming down to eat.
