Soon, a military green vehicle stopped in front of the small gate, and two tall men in military uniforms got out of the vehicle.

They approached the door warily and asked her, "Who are you? What are you doing here? If you are not affiliated with anyone, please leave immediately."

Upon seeing fellow countrymen, Su Yuxi felt a surge of kinship. She supported herself on her knees and struggled to her feet, her throat burning with pain: "Brother, I am from country Z. Please open the door and let me through."

The two men exchanged a glance and carefully looked her up and down.

Behind her stretched a mountain range that stretched for hundreds of kilometers. It was impossible for ordinary people to get out of there, unless they were women who had been coerced and sold to nearby villages and had no choice but to fight desperately to cross the mountains.

The girl in front of me had beautiful features, but her figure looked rather disheveled. There were no obvious external injuries, and she didn't look like someone who had traveled thousands of miles to get here.

They still became somewhat wary.

"What's going on with you? ID card, name."

Su Yuxi immediately gave her name and ID number.

"Big brother, I'm not a bad guy. I was just kidnapped. I finally managed to get here. Please open the door for me and let me in."

"If I get caught again, I'm dead."

A woman should show weakness when necessary; she was indeed being watched over, so it wasn't a lie.

The two listened quietly to her story, comparing the information they retrieved with her own.

Su Yuxi was afraid that others wouldn't be able to see her face clearly, so she wiped her face a couple of times with her hands, tidied her hair and clothes, and made the same expression as in the photo on her ID card.

That photo was taken four years ago, and she looks almost exactly the same now, so it's easy to recognize her.

Despite verifying her ID and acknowledging her citizenship, they still didn't open the door. Instead, they continued to check other information, though their attitude towards her improved: "What is your family's phone number in China? We need to confirm that before we can let you in."

Su Yuxi frowned immediately, her fingers digging into the metal bar, and she stammered, "I don't have a cell phone, and I haven't saved my family's phone number. What should I do?"

It's normal to not remember a phone number these days!

The two young soldiers frowned slightly, walked back a little, and whispered to each other.

After they had discussed it, they came over to comfort Su Yuxi: "Can your family be contacted at the address on your ID card?"

Su Yuxi hesitated. The address and phone number listed were Lu Yunzhou's. If she called, she would inevitably have to contact him, and she didn't want to have any contact with this man.

"Brother, could I borrow your phone to log into WeChat? I need to contact my friend."

However, before the soldier could reply, they received orders from their superiors to open the door and take the man to the detention center.

Su Yuxi didn't know why, but she could finally get through it, which should be a good thing.

However, things did not develop as I had expected.

After these people brought her in, they didn't let her leave; instead, they took her back and put her under supervision.

As for why this happened, the answer soon became clear.

Wan Chengyan, dressed in a crisp military uniform, rushed in with slightly flustered steps, his travel-worn clothes unable to conceal his heroic bearing.

When Su Yuxi saw him, she was stunned for a few seconds, and then a surprised smile immediately appeared on her face: "Brother Wan, what are you doing here?"

How could she not be excited to see an old friend in such a place?

Wan Chengyan didn't respond to her as usual. He came up to her with a very serious expression, his eyes filled with a complex look, and looked her up and down.

"Has it been checked? Is there anything unusual?"

The soldier shook his head: "Everything is normal."

"Okay, you guys go out and I'll talk to her."

"Yes." The soldier saluted respectfully, then turned and left.

The small room was now empty except for the two of them.

Looking at his serious expression, Su Yuxi felt a little intimidated by him, and her gaze towards him was no longer as ardent as before.

An inexplicable sense of solemn and oppressive atmosphere arose in the air.

"Brother Wan, why are you looking at me like that?"

Wan Chengyan took off his hat and held it in his hand, gently stroking the brim. He then took a few steps closer to her, his eyes becoming deep and unfathomable. His attitude towards her was as stern as if he were interrogating a criminal: "You stole a diary?"

Su Yuxi's eyes widened slightly. How did he know?

She took that diary with her on the island without leaving any trace. Wan Chengyan's confident tone must mean he was bluffing her.

"What diary? I don't know."

She shifted her body to the side, trying to conceal her bag, which seemed somewhat like a cover-up.

Wan Chengyan's sharp eyes had already seen through her little scheme. His tired face was full of authoritative authority that brooked no questioning: "You'd better tell me the truth. Who told you to steal it? Who were the people who sent you out? Who did you contact after you disappeared from the island? Who did you tell that information to? And why did you come back this time?"

The day after she left the island, Lin Xiao restored communication and immediately contacted them to provide a report and explanation of the incident.

At first, he didn't believe it either; Su Yuxi didn't seem to have that ability.

But a living person can suddenly disappear at sea and be nowhere to be found no matter how hard you search. They are either taken away by someone or die at sea.

It would have been better if she had died in the sea, but the fact that she appeared here makes all their previous calculations true.

This must have been orchestrated by that group of people.

Su Yuxi was stunned by his series of sharp questions; this man was really interrogating her.

"Think it over before you speak." Wan Chengyan's tone was full of threat, and the kindness of his elder brother was nowhere to be seen.

Her lips trembled slightly, and she hesitated several times before finally saying only, "I want to find Fu Huaijin."

These people have already pinned countless accusations on her, and no matter what she says, no one will believe her; it's just a waste of breath to say more.

Wan Chengyan frowned slightly: "He's busy. Just tell me what's wrong. As long as you tell me the truth, I'll arrange for someone to send you back to Shengjing."

Su Yuxi turned her face away and snorted coldly: "I need to find Fu Huaijin. Without him, I won't say anything."

After saying that, she picked up her backpack, sat down angrily in a corner, and ignored the menacing-looking man in front of her.

Wan Chengyan's gaze towards her was very complicated. If she were an ordinary person, he would have plenty of ways to get her to tell the truth.

Unfortunately, her identity is special, so there's nothing that can be done to her.

After much hesitation, he asked no more questions and turned to leave.

Su Yuxi spent most of the day alone in the detention center. When she got hungry, she got up and went outside to find something to eat.

As a result, he was blocked from stepping out with only half a foot.

"You cannot leave now."

Su Yuxi's expression was displeased: "Why? Didn't you check my ID card and confirm that I am a citizen of this country? Why won't you let me leave?"
