Chapter 881: Things Were Not So Simple
“He said that they found four steel nails in the tire of the truck. As for the details, I’m not so sure.” Ye Jian wasn’t able to answer her clearly. An on-site inspection and more investigation were needed to confirm this conclusion.
The only thing that she felt was strange was the grey sedan that went past the accident without slowing down at all… At that time, she only checked whether there were any accidents on the other side of the road. She didn’t notice the car plate numbers of those cars.
However, it was easy to find out the car plate numbers. They just needed to look for the surveillance cameras.
Director Song sighed. She felt that it was better to not mention this topic. It was a heavy topic.
It was already 5.30 am. Ye Jian remembered that there were four utility rooms on the first floor of the airport. But, Xia Jinyuan only said that he placed his military uniform on the ceiling of a utility room. She needed to look through all the rooms.
She turned and looked at Director Song who wasn’t looking well. “Auntie Song, why don’t you take a rest in the lounge. I haven’t done what I need to do. I won’t be able to accompany you.”
“Sure, sure, sure. There’s no need to accompany me. There’s no need to accompany me. Go and do what you need to do. Hurry.”
She was already an adult. There was no need for a child to accompany her. No, she mustn’t see Little Ye as a child. This young lady had saved her life!
Looking at Ye Jian’s back view as she left, Director Song muttered ‘bless her’ in her heart. It was fortunate that she met Ye Jian before she left. If not, if not… she would be dead!
At 5.30 am, the airport was very empty, especially on the first floor. She didn’t meet a single person for a long time.
Ye Jian directly walked towards the first washroom she saw. The four utility rooms were all beside various washrooms. They were very easy to find.
In the third utility room she found, Ye Jian carefully removed the grid panel from the ceiling. She saw a black plastic bag appearing in front of her eyes. She took the plastic bag down. A moldy smell wafted into her nose.
Just like what she guessed, the damp military uniform had already turned moldy.
The military uniform, military cap, and shirt were all stacked properly. Even though it was giving off a moldy smell, it didn’t affect the dignity of the military attire.
At that time, Xia Jinyuan was in a hurry but the military uniform was still folded and stacked properly. From this, you could tell how much love a soldier had for the military uniform on his body. This was the uniform that represented the dignity of their country.
Ye Jian lightly touched the national emblem on the military cap. The corners of her lips lifted slightly. In less than two years, she would be able to possess such a glorious military uniform too.
“The worker for the next shift is here. Leader, I will get off work now.” A woman’s voice came from outside. Ye Jian moved quickly and hid behind the door. Two middle-aged women wearing the cleaner uniform of the airport walked in.
“Leader, there’s no more disinfectant. I need to replenish it for the morning shift. Yesterday night…” The workers doing the night shift were handing over their work. After the two of them walked to their cabinet, Ye Jian quickly moved out of the room without alarming them.
At 5 am, buses were already starting to arrive at the airport. Ye Jian, who was carrying the bag of military uniform, didn’t stop even for a minute. She sat on the 5.40 am bus towards the city and reached Hotel Venus at around 7 am.
The moment she reached the lobby of the hotel, Ye Jian saw a few senior sisters from the third year who were preparing to go home. There was actually nothing to be afraid of but for some reason, Ye Jian felt a little guilty as she tightened her grip around the bag.
Luckily, the dress she was wearing was the one Director Song lent her. She wasn’t in her school uniform.
She lowered her head and slightly evaded her senior sisters. Before they could notice her, she walked furiously towards the entrance of the elevator.
