Chapter 1404 Fighting
"Brother Fan." Liu Xia called in a low voice.
"Sister Xia, have you pulled up your pants?" Cheng Qianfan walked closer and asked softly.
"Okay, come and give me a hand."
"Then I'm in."
When Cheng Qianfan opened the lattice door, he saw Liu Xia with a rosy face, looking at him angrily.
"No, it was just a nice sentence, but you're just imagining nonsense, Sister Xia." Cheng Qianfan muttered, but was glared at by Liu Xia in shame and anger. He slapped himself lightly on the mouth and shut up obediently.
Liu Xia rolled her eyes at Cheng Qianfan and then cried out in pain.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Qianfan asked worriedly.
"My ankle hurts." Liu Xia said.
"Let me take a look." Cheng Qianfan said, then he ignored Liu Xia's embarrassment, squatted down to take a look, and said, "It's swollen. I'll go back to the crew to ask for some safflower oil to help you apply it."
"I'll ask the crew myself." Liu Xia said shyly.
"Okay." Cheng Qianfan said.
Cheng Qianfan helped Liu Xia out. Liu Xia's expression suddenly changed, "Where's my briefcase?"
Cheng Qianfan pointed to the bathroom door and said, "It's hanging there."
Liu Xia glanced over and saw the briefcase hanging on the handle behind the door. She couldn't help but look at Cheng Qianfan angrily, "There are confidential documents in the briefcase. You just leave it there. What if someone takes it away?"
"It's my fault, it's my fault." Cheng Qianfan apologized repeatedly, "Sister Xia called me just now, so I hurried over."
Then he smiled and said, "But, we are all family members outside, so it's okay."
"That won't work either." Liu Xia frowned. "You can't judge a person by his appearance, but you can judge his heart by his appearance. We still need to be cautious."
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Liu Xia, then nodded, "Sister Xia is right."
He took off the briefcase, handed it to Liu Xia, helped Liu Xia out of the bathroom, and returned to Chu Mingyu's cabin. Liu Xia went to store the briefcase herself, and then he said goodbye and left.
……
Lying on the bed, Cheng Qianfan held a newspaper in his hand and pretended to read it.
The huge newspaper covered his face and his facial expression.
When he handed the briefcase to Liu Xia, Liu Xia just took a look at it without suspecting anything and without checking it.
Cheng Qianfan initially felt that this was a little unreasonable given Liu Xia's cautiousness, and that Liu Xia should have checked it out.
Then, after careful consideration, I felt that this was the only reasonable approach.
Liu Xia was not a professional agent, but Chu Mingyu's trusted secretary. She took a look at the briefcase, probably to confirm that it had not been replaced, and that was all.
Moreover, given the relationship between him and Liu Xia, Liu Xia should not be suspicious of him, so there is no need for a careful examination. Moreover, if he were to examine her in front of her, it would hurt her feelings and face, and given Liu Xia's temper, she would not do that.
Of course, as to whether Liu Xia would check the briefcase after returning to the cabin, Cheng Qianfan thought to himself that given Liu Xia's cautious character, she would check it, but her purpose should be to confirm that the documents were still there.
In addition, when Liu Xia called him, he deliberately hung his briefcase on the door handle.
So, when he walked over to open the lattice door and supported Liu Xia, both of them took their eyes off the briefcase. This took about two minutes. During this time, Liu Xia had a pain in her foot, so he deliberately squatted down to check her ankle, deliberately prolonging the time.
Two minutes is a short time, but for a high-level agent, this short time is enough to do a lot of things:
For example, quickly open the briefcase, take out the documents, take a quick photo with a mini camera, and then quickly put the documents back and put the briefcase back in place.
Cheng Qianfan even simulated it in his mind like playing a movie. With his skills, he could definitely complete the action of taking pictures of the files with a mini camera and then putting them back in such a short time. It might even take less than two minutes. He could compress the time further.
The two minutes or so when the two of them were not looking at the briefcase were the time when Cheng Qianfan found a way out for himself:
It is better to be safe than sorry. Once the enemy detects a leak of intelligence for some reason, they will definitely conduct an investigation.
Anyone who may have access to the briefcase or documents will be put on the investigation list.
In the worst case scenario, the two minutes or so when the briefcase is out of the two people's sight is the chance of survival.
Of course, Cheng Qianfan also considered that once investigated, Liu Xia would also be a suspect and could be framed. However, given Chu Mingyu's trust in Liu Xia, it was obvious that he was the most suspicious between Liu Xia and him.
So, to be on the safe side, he used a little trick and made the briefcase out of the sight of the two people.
In terms of benefits, once the enemy starts investigating, this situation will be beneficial to both him and Liu Xia, because he was the one who casually left the briefcase there, so he has a greater responsibility and Liu Xia has a smaller responsibility. For Liu Xia, this is an investigation result that she can barely accept.
……
Liu Xia made herself a cup of tea.
She was wondering if there was anything wrong with the details of her actions just now.
Of course, she would not forget that Chu Mingyu had the key to the safe, but she pretended to have forgotten about it and deliberately walked away.
Then in a hidden corner, the cleaner came over and quickly took a photo of the document with a mini camera.
Then Liu Xia hurried back and found Chu Mingyu to get the key.
When Cheng Qianfan caught up with them, Liu Xia noticed it.
Then she deliberately slipped and sprained her ankle, and asked Cheng Qianfan to help her go to the bathroom, while neglecting her briefcase because of shyness.
During this process, the briefcase naturally disappeared from her sight and fell into Cheng Qianfan's hands.
In this way, once the enemy discovers the intelligence leak, Cheng Qianfan, who had touched the briefcase "alone" while she was in the bathroom, will become a suspect, which will help her clear the suspicion to a certain extent.
Of course, the person who helps her clear her suspicion does not necessarily have to be Cheng Qianfan.
She had pretended to be thirsty and drank a lot of alcohol in order to prepare herself for going to the bathroom later.
When necessary, she would naturally pretend to be in a hurry to go to the bathroom, so much so that she sprained her ankle, and then ask someone who happened to be next to her to help her go to the bathroom. Then, once the information was leaked and led to an investigation, this person would naturally be included in the investigation list and share the suspicion with her.
However, Cheng Qianfan took the initiative to come to her, which made Liu Xia quite happy. In her opinion, no matter from which perspective, Cheng Qianfan was indeed an excellent target for frame-up.
Suddenly, Liu Xia frowned.
She suddenly thought of a question, a seemingly unimportant and insignificant question, but now that she thought about it, or rather, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it could not be ignored:
Why did Cheng Qianfan follow her just now?
