305 Lure the Enemy In
When Lu Ze returned, it was already dinner time.
“Here’s your favorite, roasted mutton.” Seeing Lu Ze return, Lin Suisui went forward to help him change as she chatted with him with a smile.
“I even asked the kitchen to make pancakes. We can eat them together later.”
Lu Ze turned around and pulled Lin Suisui to the soft couch by the window to sit down. Then, he asked, “Are you alright?”
“Are you talking about the people who came over today?” Lin Suisui knew what Lu Ze was asking about. “It’s fine. The matter has already been dealt with. Because Su Le and the others were there at that time and it wasn’t a big deal, I didn’t get anyone to inform you.”
Although she downplayed it, Lin Suisui still mentioned some of her thoughts to Lu Ze, “Let’s try this method first. If it doesn’t work, we’ll think of another way.”
“What are you planning?” Lu Ze stared at Lin Suisui quietly for a long time before asking her with a smile.
If it was just to ensure the operation and development of the medical center, there was actually no need for her to establish closer ties with these military families. Therefore, there must be another purpose.
“I heard from you previously that many of the residents in Cloud Mountain City are military households or have relatives on duty in the army.
The trouble we encountered previously was actually because we were not well-informed enough.
Moreover, ever since the northern barbarian spies instigated Qiao Niang to attack Doctor Luo, I thought about how these women of military families are actually quite influential in Cloud Mountain City.
Because all the men of military families are in the military camp, such circumstances make it easy for them to unite. For example, although everyone knew that she wasn’t a good person and she didn’t have a good reputation among her neighbors, but she was still able to get help these two times.
“That’s why I felt that we should try to prevent them from becoming enemies with us.”
Lin Suisui actually had not thought of what to do yet.
She had only used some of the methods she had used to deal with the previous plague to deal with the current situation. Since those methods weren’t that versatile, there were many flaws to them in the current situation. This was also the reason she had revealed her thoughts to Lu Ze.
Lu Ze was probably much better at dealing with this kind of thing than she was.
“I understand what you mean. Actually, I originally planned to let Su Yin handle this matter, but since you’re interested, why don’t I ask her to come over tomorrow and tell you about it in detail?”
Lu Ze turned to look at Lin Suisui as he asked for her opinion.
“Su Yin?” This was the first time Lin Suisui had heard this name.
“The shadow guards are in charge of collecting information. You can ask Yuan Niang. If she’s willing, Yuan Niang can learn from her as well.” Lu Ze could tell that Lin Suisui planned to nurture Yuan Niang as her assistant, so she had to learn more things as soon as possible.
Lu Ze’s arrangement was exactly what Lin Suisui wanted. Although Yuan Niang was capable, she had too little experience, so it would naturally be best if someone could give her pointers.
Perhaps because Lu Ze sensed Lin Suisui’s concern for this matter, Su Yin came over the next morning.
Su Yin’s appearance wasn’t outstanding. In fact, she looked quite ordinary. She was the kind of person who wouldn’t stand out in a crowd.
According to Bai Guo, before she and Yin Qiao came to Lin Suisui’s side, they were shadow guards under Su Yin and specialized in spying.
Although Lin Suisui was very curious about Su Yin, she didn’t ask her questions the first time they met. After greeting each other, Lin Suisui didn’t say anything else and called Yuan Niang over.
After seeing that the two of them had gotten to know each other, Lin Suisui didn’t stay any longer. She left Yuan Niang to talk to Su Yin while she left with Bai Guo.
This was the most critical moment in her investigation of the bee Gu, so she didn’t want to delay things.
Control-type Gu techniques like bee Gu were usually divided into child and mother Gu.
After so much effort, she finally succeeded in obtaining the child Gu that was still alive from the person’s head.
“What’s the use of this parasite?” Bai Guo stared at the white silkworm-like parasite that Lin Suisui had carefully moved into the glass box. When she thought of the miserable state of the person’s head, she felt a little terrified.
“With the child Gu, we can find the mother Gu as well.” After Lin Suisui looked at the sealed glass box in front of her, she turned to explain to Bai Guo in a low voice, “Actually, Gu Masters in the southern border who are good at using Gu to control people rarely use bees anymore.
Although the child Gu of the bee Gu will be absolutely loyal to the mother Gu, this Gu has a fatal weakness. It can’t be too far away from the mother Gu.
It’s just like how bees won’t stray too far from their nest.
People who are infected with this type of child Gu won’t stray too far from the mother Gu. Therefore, from this characteristic, at least we can find the mastermind hiding in Cloud Mountain City.”
After Lin Suisui picked up the box, she stood up and went to the front yard to look for Lu Ze.
However, to Lin Suisui’s surprise, when she rushed to Lu Ze’s study, Pei Qian was also there.
“Can we really find the owner of the mother parasite with this thing?”
After hearing Lin Suisui’s story, Pei Qian observed the motionless little flesh worm through the glass box in disbelief. He frowned slightly as he asked, “How do we find this thing?”
“As long as the child of this bee Gu is planted in the human body again, the person controlled by the child Gu will naturally lead you to the mother Gu.”
Lin Suisui pushed the glass box in her hand in front of Pei Qian and the others. “Didn’t the Imperial City Camp leave a few spies from the northern barbarians behind this time?
We can use them.”
“Alright, leave this to me!” Pei Qian took the glass box provided by Lin Suisui, but he wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Instead, he looked at Lin Suisui and asked, “By the way, when do you plan to open your medical center?”
“It’s still too early, since there are many things that have yet to be sorted out. Moreover, there are some things that need to be prepared.” As Lin Suisui took the teacup Lu Ze handed her, she replied very perfunctorily. “After all, it’s a task personally assigned by you, so we have to do it well. We can’t embarrass you, right, Mr. Pei?”
