Chapter 290 Do you know White Dove?
Two months later, Wu Xingbang and Bai Ge made love, and a hint of reluctance appeared in his eyes.
“Since your family wrote to ask you to go back, then go back and visit them. You’ve been away for quite a while now, so don’t let them worry. Also, take some things back with you this time. After you get home, I’ll call my mom and tell her about our wedding.”
Bai Ge looked delighted: "Really?"
Wu Xingbang nodded, looking serious: "Of course. However, we can arrange it privately between our two families first, without making it public, especially not to the Liu family. I will try to go back at the end of the year, and then we will finalize our marriage and get married formally next year."
"it is good."
However, while Bai Ge was happy, she also had some uncertainty: "But, if I marry you, will I pass the political background check?"
"Don't worry, I'm here for you. Besides, you're innocent. You were able to work in the family compound before, which means there's nothing wrong with you."
"Okay, I'll ask my workplace for leave and then buy a ticket to go back."
"I'll figure out the train tickets. I should be able to get a sleeper berth, which would be safer."
"Okay, thank you, Xingbang!"
Bai Ge's biggest dream is to marry Wu Xingbang and live a good life.
In particular, she heard that Wu Xingbang would be promoted again after the New Year, at which time he would be allocated a house and could also accompany his family to the military.
Bai Ge has already planned it all out. She will sell her job and then stay at home to be a good wife and mother.
Wu Xingbang's salary alone is enough to support the family, so there's no need for him to work too hard.
Moreover, Wu Xingbang is not young anymore; he should have had a child long ago.
Bai Ge happily went to the factory to ask for leave, and then had to get another letter of introduction. This whole process took almost two hours.
Wu Xingbang is off today, so he's been waiting at his rented place.
By the time Bai Ge returned, she had taken everything, including her own household registration booklet, which she needed to buy train tickets.
"Okay, give me the things, I'll ask someone to buy me a sleeper berth."
"Row."
Without a letter of introduction, buying train tickets is also inconvenient.
Wu Xingbang rented this apartment using a false identity, and he even put on makeup at the time. After all, his affair with Bai Ge was not honorable, and even though the two of them were not married, it was still not a good thing, so caution was the best policy.
Bai Ge had no objection to this, and before they knew it, the two had been meeting secretly here for more than half a year.
Wu Xingbang packed all his things and then told her to pack her luggage, saying he would come back tomorrow at noon.
Bai Ge was eagerly waiting to marry Wu Xingbang, so naturally she did as he said.
After returning to the military camp, Wu Xingbang began making arrangements and then went to see Liu Man again.
The next morning, after leaving home, Wu Xingbang went to the department store with Liu Man. At lunchtime, they ran into some of Liu Man's colleagues, and the group sat down together. Wu Xingbang even had a couple of drinks. Then, two of Liu Man's male colleagues helped him to his apartment to lie down for a while.
Liu Man had also drunk some, but she wasn't drunk. However, with Wu Xingbang around, she lay down with him and eventually fell asleep.
Wu Xingbang quietly got up, carefully put on makeup, and then quickly left while no one was around in the family building.
Afterwards, disguised, he boarded a bus and went directly to find Bai Ge.
When Wu Xingbang returned, it was already getting dark.
Wu Xingbang deliberately smeared some alcohol on himself, making him smell strongly of alcohol, and then intentionally let Liu Man wake up first while he remained fast asleep.
Sure enough, when Liu Man woke up, Wu Xingbang was still asleep, and the smell of alcohol was even stronger, probably because Wu Xingbang was sweating.
Liu Man straightened her clothes, then took a washbasin to the water room to fetch water.
"Hey, Xiao Liu, is that your girlfriend with you at lunch today?"
"Yes. But I had lunch with some colleagues and they got me drunk. I'm still not sober."
"This man, when he's drunk, sleeps like a log, and we'll have to wait a long time."
"But it's getting late, and he's an officer, so we have to get back quickly. There are rules in the military, so I thought I'd try wiping his face with cold water to see if that would wake him up."
"This is a good idea. Go quickly, don't delay the young man's important business any longer."
After Wu Xingbang woke up, he kept apologizing. Liu Man didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Wu Xingbang had indeed been plied with a lot of alcohol at noon, so it was normal for him to be drunk.
What she didn't know was that Wu Xingbang hadn't actually drunk much at noon, and had even deliberately poured out two cups.
Life went on peacefully until a month later, when officers from the Public Security Bureau came to question Wu Xingbang.
Wu Xingbang was called into the leader's office: "Sit down, these two comrades say they have something to ask you."
"Yes!"
The two police officers came to inquire, not to treat the person as a suspect.
"You are Comrade Wu Xingbang?"
"I'm."
Do you know a white dove?
"Yes, if you're talking about people from my hometown, then we should know each other."
"She's from your hometown. When was the last time you saw her?"
Wu Xingbang frowned and thought for about ten seconds: "It seems to have been a few months ago? I don't remember very clearly. I helped her find a job, and then I went to see her once. After that, we lost contact."
"Is it a job in a garment factory?"
"Correct."
"Do you know who Bai Ge knows around here? Friends, relatives, enemies, anything goes!"
Wu Xingbang thought for a moment and shook his head: "There probably aren't any, right? If she had relatives, she wouldn't have asked me to find her a job in the first place."
The two police officers exchanged a glance and then asked, "Do you know that Bai Ge is going back to her hometown?"
Wu Xingbang shook his head blankly: "I don't know. She can't possibly go back! Her relationship with her family is so-so, and she finally got a job and settled down here, why would she go back?"
“We found that Bai Ge bought a train ticket back to Anshi, a hard seat, and we confirmed that she boarded the train, but we haven’t heard from her since.”
Wu Xingbang couldn't sit still any longer. He jumped up, his face full of excitement: "What do you mean? Something happened to Bai Ge?"
"Don't worry, we've only confirmed that she's missing. We'll have to wait for the results of our investigation for more details."
Wu Xingbang looked incredulous: "Impossible! Why would she go back to Anshi for no reason? She's a woman. She told me before that she wanted to go back with me during the New Year so that she could have company on the road and be protected."
Wu Xingbang's statement is the correct one.
These days, it is indeed very dangerous for a woman to board a train.
"What we can confirm now is that she did board the train. Our initial suspicion is that she was targeted by human traffickers."
