Zheng Jianfei looked at the four people in front of him, momentarily taken aback, then shook his head and smiled. These outsiders were truly stubborn and unyielding.
"Alright, since you've made your decision, I won't stop you. But!" Zheng Jianfei's expression turned serious. "You must promise me that you will follow my commands and not act on your own. Do you understand?"
The four exchanged smiles and nodded in agreement.
After some discussion, they decided to head down the mountain immediately. Although Lin Mingchang was still a bit weak, he had improved significantly and was basically fine now. They bid farewell to Miao Qing and Old Miao Doctor. Before they left, Old Miao Doctor handed Lin Mingchang a few packets of herbs, advising him to continue brewing them in water for a few days to recuperate properly.
To allow Lin Mingchang to rest a bit longer, Fang Zigui rode with him on his bike, while Xiaoshuang rode with Shen Tong. The group sped along the road and soon returned to Guiyang City.
When they reached a fork in the road, Zheng Jianfei stopped. He pointed to a side road and said, "We'll part ways here. I need to return to the Police Station first to report to Director Zhou and gather reliable personnel for the operation. You all take this road to the train station, meet up with Peng Zai, and wait for support to jointly prevent Long Tianming from making his shipment."
After parting ways with Zheng Jianfei, the three continued on their way to the train station without delay.
However, upon arriving at the train station square, they were taken aback by the scene before them—a grand event was underway, with men and women from the Miao ethnic group dressed in their finest attire. The area was filled with stalls selling various Miao snacks and handicrafts. The square was bustling with people.
The group paused at the edge of the crowd, exchanging puzzled glances.
Lin Mingchang furrowed his brow and asked, "What’s going on here?"
A nearby vendor overheard them and enthusiastically explained, "You must be from out of town! Today is the Miao 'Flower Mountain Festival'! The county specially arranged for performances here since the square has just been renovated."
Hearing this, Fang Zigui said worriedly, "Of all days, it had to be today! With so many people around, how are we supposed to find Peng Zai?"
Finding one person in such a massive crowd was like searching for a needle in a haystack. Just as everyone was at a loss for what to do, Xiaoshuang suddenly had an idea.
She turned to Fang Zigui and patted his shoulder. "Zigui, you're tall; let me borrow your shoulder!"
Fang Zigui was momentarily surprised but quickly understood her intention. Without hesitation, he crouched down slightly.
Xiaoshuang nimbly climbed onto Fang Zigui's shoulders while he steadied her legs with both hands and stood up straight.
"Wow! This is so high!" Xiaoshuang exclaimed excitedly as she found herself towering over everyone around her.
She pulled a colorful handkerchief from her pocket and waved it vigorously while calling out Peng Zai's name loudly.
This tactic proved effective.
In the noisy crowd, Xiaoshuang's bright handkerchief stood out remarkably. Coupled with her elevated position and loud shouts, it quickly attracted the attention of many people.
Just as Peng Zai was rushing out of the train station, he happened to hear someone calling his name. He looked up and immediately recognized Xiaoshuang, who was waving the handkerchief while sitting on Fang Zigui's shoulder.
"Mr. Lin!" Peng Zai hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and jogged over. "I was just about to look for you!"
Seeing Peng Zai, Xiaoshuang excitedly patted Fang Zigui's shoulder, signaling that she could be let down now.
Lin Mingchang stepped forward, asking, "Peng Zai, what’s the situation? Has Long Tianming shown up?"
