486 Undercover

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, when the car drove to the entrance of the Xiao family, only Qiao An got out.

She was still carrying a basket of fruits in her hand. After entering the Xiao family, she realized that Uncle Lu was sitting on the sofa of the Xiao family listlessly, chatting with Uncle Xiao and Auntie Xiao.

“Qiao An, why are you here?” Xiao Yue called out excitedly when she saw An’an.

Qiao An stood at the door in embarrassment and made up an excuse. “I heard that Grandpa Xiao is sick, so I came to visit him.”

Uncle Xiao’s eyes were sharp. He saw that the fruits she brought were not fresh, and it was obvious that they were a few old fruits that she had improvised.

Uncle Xiao said calmly, “I haven’t seen the old man for a long time. I’ll go see him too.”

Xiao Yue held Qiao An’s hand and said, “Sister Qiao An, come with me.”

Qiao An followed Xiao Yue to the old man’s ward.

Qiao An whispered to Xiao Yue, “I have something to discuss with Uncle Xiao. Yueyue, cover for me. Also, this box of fruits was put together at the last minute. It really doesn’t look right. Change it for me.”

Xiao Yue was born into a military family. Although she was not a military personnel, she was much more vigilant than ordinary people.

“Sister Qiao An, don’t worry.” Xiao Yue left in a hurry with the fruits. Then, she returned to the living room and chatted with Uncle Lu. She was actually watching Uncle Lu.

Qiao An pushed open the door and entered the old man’s room. At this moment, Uncle Xiao was standing in front of the old man’s sickbed, quietly waiting for Qiao An to arrive.

“Uncle Xiao.”

“Qiao An, why are you looking for me?”

Qiao An nodded.

However, she walked to Old Master Xiao’s bed first and called out respectfully, “Grandpa Xiao.”

Although Old Master Xiao didn’t look well, he was clearly conscious. When he saw Qiao An, he smiled lovingly.

“An’an, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

Qiao An nodded cautiously.

She looked at Uncle Xiao solemnly and said, “Uncle, I suspect that there are undercover drug cartel agents in the police station.”

Uncle Xiao was slightly stunned. Actually, they had long thought of this. It was just that they had not investigated who the other party was for so many years and did not dare to alert the enemy, so this information had not been announced.

“How did you know?”

Qiao An looked at Uncle Xiao’s unsurprised expression. “You knew, didn’t you?”

Uncle Xiao nodded. “There were a few missions that we clearly prepared well, but we all failed in the end. I already guessed that someone in the bureau had leaked the news, but I haven’t found a suitable suspect. That person was too good at covering his tracks.”

“Have you ever thought that it was Uncle Lu?”

Uncle Xiao smiled and shook his head. “It won’t be him. I joined the army with him. He completed missions outstandingly many times. Qiao An, you might not know how deep the relationship between brothers on missions is. He saved others and was saved by other brothers. This kind of friendship that was exchanged with one’s life is very deep. I think he watched our brothers getting hurt by the enemy. He hates the drug gang to the core. He would never betray his brothers.”

Qiao An always trusted her instincts. “Then do you know anything about his unethical ways?”

Uncle Xiao was stunned for a moment before nodding.

“He made mistakes when he was young. We all advised him that he could turn over a new leaf in time. He could return to his family and live a good life with your Aunt Lu.”

In Uncle Xiao’s opinion, Qiao An’s guess had no factual basis and seemed almost childish.

Qiao An smiled shyly too. “Although I know my reason is far-fetched, I always feel that it won’t be such a coincidence if Qianqian and Brother Xiao Ming’s identities were exposed.”

These words did arouse Old Master Xiao’s suspicion.

“Son, Qiao An is right. Xiao Ming almost fooled us. We have to find out who leaked his identity.”

Uncle Xiao asked Qiao An seriously, “Qiao An, why do you suspect it’s him?”

Qiao An said, “I saw the scars on Aunt Lu’s body, so I think he’s ruthless to the core. He’s good at pretending…”

Uncle Xiao’s expression changed drastically. At this moment, he seemed to realize the danger. He looked at Qiao An with fear and uneasiness.

Qiao An fell silent.

At this moment, she realized that she had been negligent. Uncle Lu’s motive for coming to the Xiao family today… Qiao An looked around. At this moment, she even suspected that the Xiao family had surveillance.

In the flower pot of the turtle-backed bamboo, she suddenly saw a miniature surveillance camera.

Qiao An’s body trembled, and in a flash, Qiao An suddenly laughed at herself.

“Uncle Xiao, no matter what, I’ve already reminded you. In any case, you should be more wary of him in the future.”

Uncle Xiao had clearly noticed the surveillance camera too. His expression was stiff and his muscles twitched. “Qiao An, you’re a woman after all. Reconnaissance and solving cases aren’t your forte. You’d better go home and take care of the children.”

Just as Qiao An was about to leave, Uncle Xiao suddenly said with ulterior motives, “By the way, Qiao An, go back and tell Xiaoran to familiarize himself with tomorrow’s plan.”

Qiao An nodded. “Got it. Uncle, I wish you a triumphant return.”

Qiao An left.

After leaving the Xiao family, Qiao An felt as if a sharp gaze was tracking her from behind. She pretended to walk calmly, but in fact, her heart was pounding.

She was worried and terrified. The plan for tomorrow should have been exposed long ago. In the end, Uncle Xiao deliberately asked her to remind Xiaoran that the plan would not change. This sentence was probably meant for Uncle Lu.

At this moment, she was extremely worried that there was someone like Uncle Lu in the police station. If they cooperated with the criminals tomorrow, Xiaoran’s situation would be very difficult.

At this moment, she could only hope that Uncle Lu had yet to implement his plan.

Huo Xiaoran was waiting for her not far from the Xiao family’s entrance. Seeing Qiao An’s panicked expression, Huo Xiaoran came up to her. “What’s wrong? An’an.”

An’an grabbed his hand. “We’ll talk when we get home.”

Huo Xiaoran touched her hands which were icy cold.

When she returned home, Qiao An fell into Huo Xiaoran’s arms.

“Brother Xiaoran, your actions might have been exposed. Uncle Lu went to visit Old Master today. He installed a surveillance camera in Old Master’s room and I discovered it. Now, we’re in the open and they’re in the dark.”

Qiao An swallowed and struggled to say, “I’m afraid they already know that you’re with the police. Perhaps it will implicate your father…”

Huo Xiaoran’s heart trembled. This was really bad news. However, he had to comfort Qiao An with extreme calmness. “An’an, don’t be anxious. The matter hasn’t reached the last step. There’s still room for negotiation.”

Qiao An said, “You’d better not call the police.”

The bold Xiaoran felt that things had not reached the point of giving up the mission. He comforted Qiao An and said, “Our plan with the police is a highly confidential mission in the bureau. As long as Uncle Lu’s men are not among the police officers, our plan is still foolproof.”
