"Enemy agents? You must be mistaken. Those are all veterans, and mostly disabled ones at that. I heard they even raised some orphans. Isn't it normal for people to come to your house? The children must have come back."

"I'm telling you, it's alright. Don't get your hands on those veterans. We all know who they are. Don't get yourself into trouble instead of catching the bad guys."

The man waved his hand dismissively. "These big shots all know this, but what you don't know is that the house belongs to Jiang Qiao. Who is Jiang Qiao? He's the wanted criminal. You're saying these people have nothing to do with Jiang Qiao?"

Maybe Jiang Qiao is hiding in that house.

Also, I heard that the people who came to those courtyards are not orphans at all. It seems that many of them are from other places. Don't be fooled by their identities. Even if they are visiting relatives, there is no reason for them to stay for so long.

What if they really are enemy agents? If we let such a good opportunity slip by, you'll regret it later.

Back then, why was Jiang Qiao so famous? Wasn't it because he captured an enemy spy?

Who knows, this might have been part of their plan beforehand, to let Jiang Qiao infiltrate our people. Look, now that he's wanted, his true colors have been revealed.

"She's killed people! Tell me, how ruthless can she be? I don't need to tell you who those people were; you all know. Jiang Qiao dared to kill even them. Tell me, what else could she be but a spy?"

Jiang Qiao, hiding in the space, cursed out loud. "Damn it! Coming here to spread rumors about me. If this person is innocent, I'd rip his head off and use it as a football."

She was in the newspapers, but after so many years, most people probably only remember her name, and maybe a little more about what she did.

If someone knows so much about you, it would be strange if they weren't up to something.

Jiang Qiao got angry, especially when she saw the man stirring things up with his friends. She was worried about how the enemy was showing themselves, so where was she supposed to find clues?

Unexpectedly, this unlucky guy delivered himself to her doorstep. Daring to fabricate stories about her and make advances on her, he won't be leaving today.

Don't be fooled by this person's enthusiastic encouragement; the others aren't stupid, and they have their own concerns.

"These are all your guesses. What if they're not true? How are we going to handle this?"

Those people aren't left unattended. Sometimes I've even seen soldiers coming over. Have you thought about the consequences if we find nothing? That would be like stirring up a hornet's nest; we could end up getting ourselves into trouble.

Where did you get this information from? Don't let anyone fool you.

Although this is an opportunity, it might also be a trap. If we brothers jump in, we might never get out.

The man said dismissively, "What's there to be afraid of? Our ancestors were all barefoot, why would we be afraid of someone who wears shoes? Let me tell you, this Jiang Qiao, her grandfather was a landlord. Once you're associated with a landlord, do you think they can escape?"

Upon hearing that Jiang Qiao's family belonged to the landlord class, everyone became interested again.

"Landlord, are you sure?"

The man nodded smugly. "Of course, it's not a secret. Anyone who knows a little about Jiang Qiao knows about this."

"Hey guys, are you going to do this or not? If not, I'm bringing my men. Don't say I didn't give you a hand later."

Several people were intrigued. "Do you think the landlord might have hidden his gold and silver treasures in that courtyard?"

The man said thoughtfully, "It's hard to say. Once you've searched, you'll know."

Jiang Qiao cursed in her spatial dimension, "How could I give the other side the opportunity to harass these veterans?"

If those bastards really do that, Jian Ling and the others will definitely not escape. She and Dong Kaizhen don't have anything like a spatial dimension. The radio alone is enough to make them get framed.

Jiang Qiao didn't give the man another chance to fool her. A pebble was thrown out and shattered the light bulb, plunging the room into darkness.

The group, unaware of the situation, anxiously asked, "What happened? Why is the power suddenly out? What's wrong with the light?"

Unfortunately, before anyone could answer, some people had already started to lose their senses; the powder Jiang Qiao had sprinkled was taking effect.

"not good--"

When the man was still conscious, he knew that something was wrong, but he didn't know what it was.

In the darkness, a ray of light drifted back and forth around them.

They seemed to see a woman dressed in white appear before them.

"A ghost!"

Unfortunately, those two words were only uttered briefly by the other person before they fell into a trance.

Everyone felt as if they had entered another world, surrounded by lights and the sounds of people talking.

Some people started talking to themselves, others were prostrating themselves on the ground and kowtowing incessantly, and still others were shivering like frozen ghosts, as if they were in the middle of ice and snow.

Some jumped to the ground and barked like dogs; others stripped naked and did unspeakable things.

These things didn't affect Jiang Qiao much. As a married woman, she wasn't interested in such things. What she really wanted to know from that man was how he knew about the veterans' situation and who gave him this idea.

A pill went straight into the man's mouth. Jiang Qiao's voice sounded like it came from hell, distant and empty.

The man was initially somewhat resistant, but since Jiang Qiao had concocted the medicine herself, its effects were top-notch, so it was impossible for him not to tell the truth.

"Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

The man muttered, "My friend, he told me not to say."

"Who is your friend? What's their name? What do they do?"

The man muttered, "His name is Junzi, that's what everyone calls him. I've never asked his surname, but I know where he hangs out."

After Jiang Qiao inquired about the whereabouts of the man named Junzi, she put a pill in the man's mouth. Products from her sect were of guaranteed quality. After a while, the man didn't even remember what he had just said.

Jiang Qiao had no intention of letting these people off easily. They dared to plot against her and even planned to harm the veterans. If she didn't teach them a lesson, they wouldn't know that she had three eyes.

With another flick of her wrist, Jiang Qiao sprayed the group of people a few times with the small spray bottle. Once their condition worsened, Jiang Qiao emerged, strained her voice, and shouted for help towards the neighboring courtyard before disappearing into her spatial dimension.
