"Go there? What, haven't you interrogated the people you arrested yesterday yet? Do I really need to go there? Just beat them until they submit."

Zhao Jian gave a wry smile. "How am I supposed to fight that woman?"

Jiang Qiao rolled her eyes. "So what if she's a woman? Does that mean she's not an enemy agent? Yesterday, that girl even pointed a gun at me. So tough, huh? Then let's see how tough our iron fist is!"

Zhao Jian gave a wry smile. "You're kidding me. Do you want me to make a mistake? She just had surgery. If I touch her, I'll probably lose my job."

This Mina is cunning; she hasn't told a single truth and refuses to cooperate. Why don't you try it yourself? It's better for you to fight than for us to fight; after all, you're not a staff member."

"Tch, you guys are really something. You just grab anyone off the street and beat them up. What, do you have to be careful who you hit? Sigh, my life is so miserable—"

He sighed deeply, picked up the apple beside him, and took two big bites, making Zhao Jian envious.

Jiang Qiao simply tossed him two messages: "Alright, I'll pack up and come with you."

Zhao Jian took a bite of the apple and mumbled, "It's delicious, I know. This must have been quite a hassle for you. I'll ask the director for a commendation or something."

Jiang Qiao waved her hand and said, "Forget it, you can keep those credits. What would I, as a student, need them for? It's best for me to just be a good student."

By the way, what was the situation over there last night?

Zhao Jian certainly knew what Jiang Qiao meant by what she was talking about.

"Don't even mention it, they were attacked over there too, but luckily that guy was well prepared. I don't know where those people came from, we didn't hear a thing beforehand."

Zhao Jian didn't treat Jiang Qiao as an outsider. Although the girl called him "uncle," in his heart, she was more like a friend. There were things he couldn't say in front of his colleagues, but he could say them to Jiang Qiao without hesitation, because he knew she was a trustworthy partner.

Jiang Qiao snorted, "If they made a fuss, they wouldn't be enemy agents. It's just that this incident was too sudden, and you didn't have any time to prepare. Otherwise, you wouldn't be in such a passive position. I don't need to get involved at all. Alright, let's go. Or, you can take a few more apples to eat at home."

Zhao Jian waved his hand, "You're taking it home? It'll be gone by the time you get to the office. Two are enough for me. But these are definitely much tastier than the ones we buy at home."

Jiang Qiao thought about it and agreed. The salaries and benefits of police officers are quite high, and her family shouldn't be short of food.

Xiaoxiao said, "Of course! I bought it through a middleman, how could it be bad? Let's go."

Qiao Jie said from behind, "Girl, come back soon, Grandpa is waiting for you to eat."

Jiang Qiao waved and followed Zhao Jian out with their schoolbags on their backs.

"Jiang Qiao, you've come at the right time. We just received news that the door has a password, so we need to interrogate her to find out what the password is, but unfortunately, that woman won't tell us no matter what."

"Password? What do you mean? Having a key isn't enough? Then we might as well just start digging."

Song Zhi shook his head. "No way. I heard that not only the main gate, but the entire area is equipped with self-destruct devices. Once the gate is unlocked, if the correct password cannot be entered within a specified time, the place will automatically detonate. Quick, go and interrogate her. Damn it, this woman is too difficult to deal with."

Before Jiang Qiao could say anything, Song Zhi quickly pushed her into the car and headed straight for the hospital.

Upon seeing Milan lying on the hospital bed, Jiang Qiao didn't even need Song Zhi to speak. He immediately told the people who had followed behind, "Take her away and send her to the excavation site. Isn't there no password? If it explodes, we'll all die together."

Jiang Qiao's move not only stunned Song Zhi, but even Milan was surprised that Jiang Qiao would do such a thing.

He stuck out his neck and shouted, "You have no right to treat me like this!"

Song Zhi laughed, "Who said she has no right? Take her away. Even if she's going to die, we won't let her stay idle. It's said that there's something bad in there. If you get involved, you'll be unrecognizable. Your pretty face probably won't be spared either. Take her away—"

Milan struggled in her hospital bed. Although Jiang Qiao had shot her in the limbs yesterday, only the bullet wound in her thigh was serious. The other wounds didn't require surgery; just stopping the bleeding would suffice. That's why Milan had the strength to struggle.

Unfortunately, Jiang Qiao didn't want to waste any more words with her and turned to leave. The people who followed behind, having heard that their leader had spoken, didn't dawdle any longer, grabbed the person, put her on a stretcher, secured her, and carried her out.

"You can't treat me like this! I'm protesting! I want to see your leaders!"

As Song Zhi walked with his cane, he said, "I am the leader. Speak your mind, or shut up. Once you get there, it's no longer my responsibility. Whether you live or die is up to you. I'm only responsible for getting you there."

Milan's voice, unusually trembling with fear, cried out, "I won't go, please don't take me there."

"Then tell us honestly, what is the password, what is inside, and what are you planning to do?"

When it came to the substantive issues, Milan fell silent again, at which point Jiang Qiao suddenly stopped in his tracks.

She slapped her forehead. How could she have forgotten the rules of that organization? Milan's behavior showed fear of death, yet she remained silent. There must be a reason, and it was probably related to the rules of that organization.

Turning around and looking down at her, Milan felt a strange sense of unease as she looked at Jiang Qiao. She couldn't see through this young girl, and even if someone else came, they might not be her match.

Jiang Qiao leaned close to Milan's ear and said, "I'll give you one more chance. If you tell us everything, we can change your identity and name, and put you in a different place. No one will be able to find you then. Before you make a big mistake, I advise you to think it over carefully. Otherwise, things will really explode. Even if we don't send you to the scene, this place will be affected. Think about the consequences yourself."

Milan's eyes flickered, and this time she fell completely silent. Just as they were lifting the person into the car, she suddenly spoke.

"Take me to the police station."

Jiang Qiao raised an eyebrow at Song Zhiyi, then nimbly jumped into the car. "Let's go back to the station."

Upon arriving at the police station, Milan remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "Can they meet the conditions you mentioned?"

Song Zhi didn't even ask what the conditions were. If Jiang Qiao agreed, it certainly wouldn't be without reason, nor would it be too unreasonable.

"Yes, but the primary condition is that you must honestly explain everything."

Jiang Qiao couldn't wait any longer; they needed a password. However, Milan's first words stunned her.
