Chapter 565 Arrival in Mian Country
After Qi Tongwei learned their exact location, he prepared to take Chen Ran with him.
His cell phone suddenly vibrated. Qi Tongwei took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was the "Boss of Mian Country" calling.
Qi Tongwei raised his eyebrows, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then he picked up the phone.
The other party's voice came from the receiver, with a tentative tone: "Where is that woman now?"
The voice seemed calm, but it concealed a dangerous aura.
Qi Tongwei's heart moved, but his voice was disguised perfectly, just like a real scammer.
He said slowly, "He's still here with me. He just took a big knock and is still acting crazy."
As he spoke, he observed his surroundings, alert for any unusual circumstances.
The boss of Mian State was silent for a while on the other end of the phone. Qi Tongwei could hear his heavy breathing, as if he was thinking about some important decision.
Suddenly, the leader of Mian State changed his behavior and asked Qi Tongwei to bring the person over.
His voice became urgent and firm: "Bring her here now, I want to see her myself."
Qi Tongwei asked curiously, "Why? Didn't you just say that this woman is not in good condition and may be potentially dangerous?"
There was just the right amount of doubt in his voice, trying to get more information from the other person's answer.
The other party scolded: "Just do what I tell you to do, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Qi Tongwei sneered in his heart, but said respectfully on the surface: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
He knew that the leader of the Mian Kingdom must be planning something, and there must be an ulterior motive behind this sudden change.
But the boss of Mian State gave Qi Tongwei another address.
"Send her over first. After she arrives, contact her family and see what's going on."
There was an elusive meaning in the voice of the Mian Kingdom boss.
Qi Tongwei frowned and pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Boss, I've never heard of this address."
"And wouldn't it be too risky to contact her family now?"
"If her family finds out, we'll be in trouble."
He tried to get more information from the boss of Mian Country, and at the same time wanted to make his performance seem more in line with the psychology of an ordinary scammer.
The Mianguo boss said impatiently: "What do you know? This address is very safe. It is one of our backup bases."
"As for her family, just do as I say."
"I suspect the forces behind this woman are already investigating us. We have to take preemptive action."
"If her family is willing to pay to get rid of the disaster, then we can take advantage of the opportunity to make some more money and then get rid of this woman."
"If her family takes a tough stance, we must be prepared to deal with it."
Qi Tongwei was startled. This boss of Mian Country was indeed vicious enough. Not only did he want to continue defrauding money, he also planned to harm Meng Yao.
He responded, "Boss, you are really far-sighted."
"But I'm still a little worried. What if her family has already called the police?"
The Mian Kingdom boss snorted coldly: "That's why I told you to be careful. Observe the situation first. If anything seems amiss, don't expose yourself."
"We have also deployed personnel around this stronghold, so that we can respond promptly if there is any disturbance."
Qi Tongwei nodded and said, "Boss, I understand."
"I will do as you command."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei looked at Chen Ran. Their eyes met, and they saw confusion and vigilance in each other's eyes.
Qi Tongwei whispered, "It seems that the Mian State boss has sensed the danger and wants to get more information from Meng Yao."
"However, this is also a good opportunity for us to go deep into the tiger's den."
Chen Ran nodded, his eyes firm as he said, "Then we'll use their tricks against us. But we have to be careful. The Mian Country boss won't let us in so easily. He might have set numerous traps along the way."
Qi Tongwei's lips curled up into a confident smile: "Trap?"
"We are here specifically to dismantle the trap."
"Let's go and meet the boss of Mian Country."
After that, the two began to prepare.
The two drove towards Mian Country.
The mountain road was quite rugged and the car kept bumping up and down.
Qi Tongwei gripped the steering wheel tightly, his eyes fixed on the winding road ahead.
His movements were skillful and agile, and he cleverly avoided the potholes and rocks on the road. Although the car was shaking, it always maintained a steady forward movement.
Chen Ran sat in the passenger seat, looking out the window from time to time.
The scenery outside the window passed by quickly, but his heart was filled with worries about the unknown journey.
He would steal a glance at Qi Tongwei from time to time, and seeing Qi Tongwei's calm expression, he gradually felt more at ease.
As the car moved forward, they gradually approached the border between the two countries.
Chen Ran's heart began to tighten again. At first, he was still thinking about disguising his identity in his mind, wondering whether he should leave through other roads to avoid border inspection.
After all, their mission was full of dangers, and he didn't want any accidents to happen at the border.
However, what he didn't expect was that Qi Tongwei drove towards the border inspection office in a swaggering manner.
Chen Ran widened his eyes and looked at Qi Tongwei in shock. His mouth was wide open, he wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.
Qi Tongwei slowly drove the car to the border inspection office, rolled down the window, and had a faint smile on his face.
He calmly handed the relevant documents to the border inspector. His movements were natural and smooth, without any nervousness.
The border inspector took the document and checked it carefully.
Chen Ran's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. His hands tightly gripped the edge of the seat, and his eyes stared at the inspector's every move without blinking.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. What should they do if something goes wrong?
However, Qi Tongwei felt as relaxed as if he was at his own doorstep.
After checking the documents, the inspector politely returned them to Qi Tongwei and signaled that they could pass.
Qi Tongwei thanked the inspectors, then started the car and slowly drove across the border.
Chen Ran finally came back to his senses. He turned around and looked at Qi Tongwei with a puzzled look on his face. He asked, "How did you do it? I thought we had to sneak over there."
Qi Tongwei smiled and said, "Sometimes, the most dangerous place is the safest place."
"We walk openly and honestly, so as not to arouse suspicion."
"Besides, my documents are all legal and valid, so there's nothing to worry about."
After hearing what Qi Tongwei said, Chen Ran couldn't help but admire him even more.
He knew that Qi Tongwei always acted in unexpected ways, but he was able to escape danger every time.
After arriving in Mian Country, Qi Tongwei clearly felt a depressing atmosphere.
Everyone on the road stared at their foreign car with a fierce look, their eyes full of vigilance and hostility, as if they were uninvited guests who had intruded into their territory.
There were even many gunmen squatting at the windows, with the black muzzles of their guns aimed at them, and the cold metallic luster flashed a dangerous signal in the sunlight.
Chen Ran was extremely nervous. He sat straight, his eyes fixed on the movements around him. His hands were unconsciously clenched into fists, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
He felt like he could be attacked at any moment.
Qi Tongwei remained calm. He skillfully controlled the steering wheel and drove the car directly to the embassy.
The people at the embassy had been notified long ago, and when they saw Qi Tongwei and Chen Ran's car slowly approaching, staff immediately came out to greet them.
They had warm and friendly smiles on their faces, which were like a ray of warm sunshine in this foreign country full of danger.
Qi Tongwei took Chen Ran into the embassy, walked through the corridors, and came to a quiet room.
He took out a small box from the bag he was carrying.
This small box looks ordinary, square, with some simple patterns on the surface.
Chen Ran took a look, his heart full of doubts. Suddenly, a strange thought flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "Captain, are you going to leave any evidence?"
As he spoke, he scratched his head, feeling that his idea was a bit absurd, but he really couldn't think of any other purpose for Qi Tongwei to take out this box.
Qi Tongwei couldn't help but smile when he heard Chen Ran's words.
He shook his head slightly, with a hint of mystery in his eyes, and said, "You are really good at thinking. You will know its use later."
As he spoke, he carefully opened the box, as if he was treating a rare treasure.
Chen Ran moved forward curiously, his eyes fixed on the contents of the box, wanting to find out what was inside.
His heart was full of anticipation, and he didn't know what Qi Tongwei was up to.
Even when Qi Tongwei was smearing something on his face, Chen Ran still looked confused.
Qi Tongwei's movements were very skillful. He first took out a small bottle, gently squeezed some lotion-like substance onto his hands, and then applied it evenly on Chen Ran's face.
The cool touch made Chen Ran tremble slightly.
As he applied the makeup, Qi Tongwei explained, "This is a special makeup base that changes the texture and color of your skin, making you look more like a local."
Then, Qi Tongwei took out a small tool from the box, which looked like a pair of miniature tweezers.
He picked up a thin, almost transparent piece with tweezers. Chen Ran took a closer look and found that it looked like a specially made piece of fake skin.
Qi Tongwei carefully placed the fake skin on Chen Ran's nose bridge, pressing gently to ensure that it fit perfectly with the surrounding skin.
The texture of the fake skin was very realistic. After it was applied, Chen Ran's nose looked like it had been hit by something. It was slightly deformed, completely changing his original facial contours.
Chen Ran widened his eyes, his heart filled with shock.
He didn't expect that Qi Tongwei had such amazing makeup skills.
Qi Tongwei took out some small brushes, dipped them in powder of different colors, and gently brushed them on Chen Ran's face.
He applied some light shadow around Chen Ran's eye sockets, making his eyes look sunken, more in line with the facial features of the Mian people.
Then, he brushed some dark powder on both sides of Chen Ran's cheeks to create a thinner visual effect.
Chen Ran felt like a puppet in Qi Tongwei's hands, allowing him to manipulate him at will.
He watched Qi Tongwei's skillful technique, and the shock in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
Qi Tongwei also took out a special pen and drew some fine lines on Chen Ran's face.
His movements were light and precise, and every stroke was just right.
Chen Ran couldn't help but ask, "Captain, when did you learn such amazing makeup skills?"
Qi Tongwei smiled and said without stopping what he was doing, "This is a necessary skill when carrying out some special missions."
"Sometimes, changing your appearance can help you blend in better and avoid unnecessary trouble."
Finally, Qi Tongwei took out a wig and put it on Chen Ran, and adjusted the shape of the wig to make it look more natural.
