He said gratefully, "Thank you."

Zou Feng was not polite: "Then I will get better as soon as possible and chop firewood for my sister-in-law."

In H㹐, heavy snow lasts for several months in winter, so every household will prepare a lot of firewood before winter.

Xiaomei smiled: "Then I thank you on behalf of my sister."

Everyone started to eat. Xiuhong and the other two took the net bags and left. They would take the lunch boxes back when the meal was delivered in the evening.

When Xiaomei got home, she told Lin Qingqing about the steamed buns she had given to Zhou Lie and Zou Feng. Lin Qingqing thought it was a trivial matter.

"Make more steamed buns each time, and I'll bring a few more when I deliver the food."

"Okay." Xiaomei smiled.

......

At around 3:00 p.m., the chief and Political Commissar Wang, accompanied by their guards, walked into the clinic with serious expressions.

The medical staff pushed Song Yiyuan into a ward alone. The two stood in the ward waiting, while Dong Dayong and Shen Youguo stood guard outside the door.

When Song Yiyuan was pushed over and saw the unhappy expressions of the commander and Political Commissar Wang, he also felt a little nervous.

Once the hospital staff had left and Political Commissar Wang had locked the door, he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

The chief asked quietly, "What did you use to make that germ expert faint when you arrested him?"

Song Yiyuan frowned. It was the drug that Lin Qingqing gave him. He didn't expect the effect to be so good at that time. He fell down in a second.

Now that the leader asked him about it, he thought about the day when Lin Qingqing gave him the medicine, just like she gave him a steamed bun. He thought she didn't care much about the medicine, so she should be able to explain it to the army.

And when a complete mission report is submitted to the troops, this medicine will also be mentioned.

Even if we take a step back and say that Lin Qingqing is now a soldier, both the commander and Political Commissar Wang know her identity. He thought about it and said, "She must have been drugged."

It may sound shameful for soldiers to use drugs, but it is understandable to use drugs to arrest spies, especially since it was the spies who first used this method.

"Is it really a drug?" The leader asked with a mixture of contempt and surprise in his eyes.

Political Commissar Wang raised his eyebrows and stood aside calmly.

It seems that the germ expert was not lying.

Last night, Shuichi Itō was transferred back from Sū. As soon as he arrived at the army, he was sent directly to the interrogation room and held in solitary confinement. In the morning, the chief and Political Commissar Wang went to the interrogation room to inform Shuichi Itō that he was now in the army and it was impossible for Country R to rescue him.

They also told him about his identity being exposed, so that he would stop struggling and cooperate with them and tell them everything he knew.

They never thought that just a few words could make Yi Tang Xiu confess. The purpose of these words was to break his psychological defenses and disrupt his thinking.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Yitang Xiuyi did not show any fear at all. Instead, he laughed and said that he would never betray his motherland even if he died.

The leader and Political Commissar Wang knew that this was a protracted battle and they might have to detain him for half a year, a year or even three years before they could get anything out of him.

After saying this, he left the interrogation room.

In the afternoon, the guard who was guarding Ito Xiuyi came to report that Ito Xiuyi wanted to make a deal.

After hearing this, the leader was excited and called Political Commissar Wang to come over quickly.

(Here's a spoiler for everyone: the heroine brings Xiaomei to the army because she has a special body. This will be mentioned around chapter 350.)❤
