When Zhou Junmin arrived, he was carrying a large bag full of items. He immediately assisted in carrying it to the kitchen as soon as he entered the door. Mrs. Jiang stood to the side, embarrassed, and thanked him.

"Auntie, don't thank me. Colonel Lu ordered this. Don't feel embarrassed for spending his money. This is the Colonel's money. How much have I spent? The Colonel will pay me back every cent. Auntie, please wash the fruits for Mrs. Lu. I'll put the food away."

Halfway through, Zhou Junmin noticed the letter in the bag and realized he still had something for Jiang Yao. He took the thin envelope from his pocket and went to the living room to tell Jiang Yao. "Here is a letter for you. I noticed it at the entrance when I returned to the army base. It stated that it was for Lu Xingzhi's wife, Jiang Yao. I am not sure if it was the mailman who dropped it at the entrance. Fortunately, the envelope was white, so I could see it clearly. Thankfully, it did not rain today."

Zhou Junmin reasoned that if the envelope was green, it might not be seen even if he remained at the entrance for a few more days.

"There's such a careless mailman?"

Jiang Yao smiled and reached out to take it. She glanced at the envelope. There was a message for the recipient but nothing about the sender. "That's strange. Who would write me a letter? "

She had a cell phone, so they could call if they needed her.

"There's no postmark on the stamp."

Jiang Yao discovered something strange. "Zhou Junmin, do you see a postmark? There should be a postmark on the stamp."

"There really isn't one!"

Zhou Junmin, who had bent down to look, was also taken aback. "Mrs. Lu, won't you know who wrote the letter to you after you open it and take a look? But that stamp does not have a postmark, and it appears it can be used again. It is very cost-effective. Can you tear it off and give it to me later? It is a shame. That is just a regular stamp. It is available at all post offices. Some post offices have special stamps that retain their commemorative and collectible value."

Jiang Yao tore off the stamp and handed it to Zhou Junmin before opening the letter.

She did not expect the letter to be a printed A4 sheet with a line of words on it.

"If you want to know the whereabouts of Zhou Xiaocheng's corpse, come to Yuan City."

There was no signature, and the entire paper only had one sentence.

Zhou Junmin glanced at it and realized that the letter had not been dropped by the postman but had been purposefully left at the army's entrance.

"Someone wants to lure you to return to your hometown."

Zhou Junmin immediately said, "You're not allowed to go! Before the Colonel left, he told you not to leave the army base."

"I didn't say I was going."

Jiang Yao guessed who had directed the letter's delivery to her.

Qian Yunen appeared to be more capable than she had anticipated. Du Chen had only discovered the problem last night, and then the letter was in her hands.

Qian Yunen was in Luo City. Or did he arrange for someone to be there?

"That's good. This letter is obviously trying to lure you out of the army base. The Colonel will beat me to death later if you fall for it." Zhou Junmin took the paper from Jiang Yao's hands. He tore it into pieces and threw it into the trash can.

Jiang Yao smiled at Zhou Junmin's actions, but she was not unhappy.
