32 days

They returned to the main building of the R&D center through the underground tunnel, and Yi Alan was still reminiscing about the incredible spaceship he had just seen.

Zhou Yan'an quickly returned to the grim reality, or he has been confronting the reality and never let up: "Knowledge of Project S still cannot help us quickly find the spy on the 32nd."

Perhaps using Plan S as a bait, combined with intelligence personnel operating outside the country and the intelligence of informants from various countries, it is possible to deduce which country has planted which spy, but that requires careful planning and a long time, and one month is far from enough.

Luo Caiyun said, "Yes."

Zhou Yanan looked at her.

Luo Caiyun said, "Let's think of other ways first."

Song Rui took Luo Caiyun and his party to a safe conference room and left, Yan Fei and Chen Ruming.Lu Liangjun was notified immediately.

In the meeting room, they made video contact with Zhou Yanan's monitor, Zheng Duo.

Zheng Duo took a three-person team to the home of Cheng Siyuan's parents, focusing on interrogating Cheng Siyuan's younger sister, Cheng Sisi, but she was only a seven-year-old girl.

Zheng Duo reported in detail in the video: "We had a private conversation with Cheng Sisi. The little girl was very calm, and her thoughts and words were very clear. She said that she woke up one day a few months ago and found no one at home. Her mother did not help her. To prepare breakfast, I had to go to the Central Primary School near the community hungry. Cheng Sisi was not afraid until she arrived at the school and saw no classmates or teachers. However, her family’s safety education was done very well. Cheng Sisi returned home immediately and called 110. When there was no response to her parents' cell phone, Cheng Sisi cried for about ten minutes and then called her brother Cheng Siyuan's cell phone, only to hear a strange voice."

Yan Fei's expression moved, and before he could speak, Zheng Duo said: "We played the audio data of the six correspondents provided by the R&D center to Cheng Sisi, but Cheng Sisi couldn't tell which one she heard. Now he is accepting the audio data from the R&D center. The audio files of all the staff will be played one after another for Cheng Sisi to listen to, but it is very unlikely that Cheng Sisi can identify it, because according to her, she has not talked with that person for a long time. The content of the conversation is not complicated, and the man only asked her to stay at home Stay well, eat some stored food like bread, and he will help her find her brother."

Yan Fei regretted: "Besides, Cheng Sisi is too young, and her brain is not fully developed. Legally, it is difficult for such an old child's testimony to be recognized."

Zheng Duo continued to report: "The first time after the 32nd, that is, in June, Cheng Sisi returned to her normal life. She just thought she had a strange dream and said a few words to her parents casually, but her parents didn't care. The second time, on the 32nd, Cheng Sisi called her brother again. The stranger answered the phone and said the same thing. This time, Cheng Sisi stayed for two days on the 32nd, and after returning to normal life, she and her parents were so scared that they cried. It's been a long time, but her parents still regard it as a child's inexplicable imagination."

This cannot be blamed on Cheng Sisi's parents. At that time, no one could imagine the existence of the 32nd.

"On the 32nd of the third time, that is, July 32, Cheng Sisi said that a strange man came to her home. The girl cooked the food, although it was very difficult to eat."

Hearing this, Luo Caiyun and the others couldn't help but straighten their backs. This new strange man should be the partner of the spy of the R&D center. He held Cheng Sisi hostage and threatened Cheng Siyuan to work for them.

Zheng Duo said: "Now, the painter we found at the local police station is communicating with Cheng Sisi, and wants to draw a portrait of the man Cheng Sisi met on the 32nd, but it is also not optimistic. The seven-year-old girl's memory and ability to describe details are weak. Not enough to restore a real person who is not familiar with."

"There is also a very important point. This time, Cheng Sisi had a real conversation with his brother Cheng Siyuan for the first time. Cheng Siyuan asked Cheng Sisi on the phone if she was doing well, if anyone bullied her, and asked Cheng Sisi not to Tell your parents about these things, this is a little secret between them, after Cheng Sisi heard Cheng Siyuan's voice, she was no longer afraid, and regarded the 32nd as a game with her brother."

Cheng Siyuan didn't let Cheng Sisi talk to his parents about the 32nd. On the one hand, he might be afraid that his parents would worry. On the other hand, he was probably coerced by the spy to keep it secret.

Luo Caiyun: "Do Cheng Siyuan's parents have any questions about your sudden visit?"

Zheng Duo replied: "There should be, but they didn't say it clearly. Because of the nature of Cheng Siyuan's work, his family is often subject to scrutiny, especially when they go abroad. They are used to it. But this time we mainly asked Cheng Sisi. It made them quite confused and uneasy. Team leader Luo, when can we tell Cheng Siyuan's parents the truth?"

Luo Caiyun said: "Let's talk about it after Cheng Sisi's safety is guaranteed."

Zheng Duo was silent.Cheng Siyuan had already sacrificed, if the old couple knew that the only daughter was still in the hands of the mysterious spy, they might not be able to bear this blow.

Luo Caiyun ordered a few more actions before hanging up the video communication.

For a period of time after that, Zheng Duo was also responsible for quietly protecting Cheng Sisi's family there.

On this side, the anti-espionage department is secretly reviewing the personnel of the R&D center, especially the six correspondents who Yan Fei deduces to be highly suspicious.

A week later, the anti-espionage division did find out that some people were in an abnormal situation, but it had nothing to do with the 32nd. It was all internal corruption or power struggle, and the six correspondents were even more innocent.

The investigation was deadlocked. At this time, it was impossible not to disturb the mysterious spy to investigate secretly. Luo Caiyun had no choice but to order the correspondent to have a direct telephone conversation with Cheng Sisi, and repeat what the spy had said to Cheng Sisi on the 32nd, hoping that Cheng Sisi could recognize it.If one of these six people is really a spy, then he must understand that his existence on the 32nd is no longer a secret, and Cheng Siyuan revealed some information in a way that he did not know.

So Luo Caiyun had no choice but to physically control all the correspondents.

As expected, Cheng Sisi couldn't accurately identify the strange voice, and only vaguely said that it resembled it.Among the six correspondents, there are three who are "somewhat similar".

The portrait drawn by the artist according to Cheng Sisi's description has no other effect except that he can barely see that he is an Asian man in his thirties.

Yan Fei pulled out the database of the intelligence department, compared the photos and portraits of the confirmed or suspected spies of other countries active in the country and nearby areas, and exported them one by one for Cheng Sisi to see. The girl's eyes turned red, and she couldn't correspond with the man who came to her home on the 32nd.

Luo Caiyun really couldn't be too demanding of Cheng Sisi.

Investigating the identity of the spy has always been a top priority, and the task of finding someone who can enter the 32nd and master flying tools is also imminent.

During the 32 days, Zhou Yanan and Yi Alan were still trapped in the Qingyun Mountains, and it would be too late to expect Zhou Yanan to walk out.All flight formations in the system have been investigated, but nothing has been found, so the direction has to be turned to civilians.Private flying hobby circles and various scenic spots are the key areas to look for. Many scenic spots have helicopter and hot air balloon experience activities. The number of private pilots accumulated by so many great rivers and mountains in the motherland is very considerable.

This urgent and large-scale action is difficult to carry out secretly and euphemistically, and the existence of the 32nd has actually spread widely.Many people in charge who received the notification were confused about the "32nd", but they still passed on the order. Later, more people fell into confusion and speculated that the vigilant people had already begun to use their contacts to find out what the "32nd" was. day".

There was no news of the pilot on the 32nd, and Luo Caiyun felt anxious, and even had the idea of ​​"arresting" Meng Qi to temporarily learn how to fly a helicopter to rescue Zhou Yan'an.

When there were only ten days left in the month, Meng Qi narrowly escaped from Luo Caiyun's strange eyes, even though he didn't know anything.

Yan Fei happily took a stack of reports and placed them on Luo Caiyun's desk: "We have news from the pilot."

Luo Caiyun opened the character file, and after a closer look, her expression was slightly startled.

This person is called Liu Jinyue. He used to serve in the Naval Air Corps. During his service, he made many military exploits. He is an absolutely professional and reliable pilot.

But the problem is that Liu Jinyue has been retired for decades, and now he is only an 80-year-old man with many diseases.He had already taken care of himself for the rest of his life and didn't care about world affairs. After he appeared on the 32nd, he who was able to enter that world had talked to the few remaining comrades in arms and expressed his many concerns, but those people thought Liu Jinyue was old and confused.It wasn't until the country searched for the "32nd Aviator" on a large scale that an old comrade-in-arms who was retired but still had contact with some leaders realized that Liu Jinyue's nonsense might be true.

Luo Caiyun asked: "Is he competent?"

Yan Fei said: "I had a face-to-face meeting with Liu Jinyue. The old man is still very clear-headed. He strongly recommended himself to complete the mission. He said that it would be impossible to use a fighter plane to fight a war, but he would use a helicopter with assisted piloting function to save people. Shouldn't be a problem."

Luo Caiyun looked at the two photos on the file, one was a photo of Liu Jinyue's military service certificate when he was young, and the other was a photo of Liu Jinyue's daily life with gray hair and wrinkled face.Except for the eyes in the two photos, it is difficult to find the same thing.

Without much hesitation, Luo Caiyun said: "Arrange him to come to understand the situation. During this period, please ask comrades with medical skills to take care of his daily life."

Zhou Yan'an and Yi Alan were not idle during the long search for the pilot.It is impossible for them to wait until they find someone before making the next step. Instead, they list several different plans for different situations, and get familiarized and trained one by one, so as to save a little time.For example, whether to find professional pilots or amateur pilots, and even considering that amateur pilots retreat on the 32nd, they have to design different countermeasures and backup plans to deal with it.

Obviously there is only one or two days on the 32nd, but they have been preparing for it for a whole month.It can also be said that their entire lives revolve around the 32nd.

What kept Yi Alan preoccupied was how they would save Cheng Sisi.

Luo Caiyun never mentioned related topics in several group meetings.Sometimes Yi Alan couldn't control her negative thoughts: Does this mean that Luo Caiyun has given up on Cheng Sisi.

This may be the reason why Cheng Siyuan never asked the state for help, because he also knew that no amount of state machinery could do anything in the face of the 32 days that isolated most people.Even if in reality an army is sent to protect Cheng Sisi tightly, as soon as the 32nd day enters, Cheng Sisi will become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered by the mysterious spy.Could it be that the spy would only fulfill his promise to Cheng Siyuan and release Cheng Sisi?

Yi Alan felt deeply powerless.

If only Joker could help.Yi Alan couldn't help but imagine that on the 32nd, Joker was the well-deserved king of the Internet, and wherever there is the Internet, there are his eyes.As long as he thinks, he must know who the spy is, who Cheng Sisi is holding hostage, and how to rescue this poor little girl.
