Chapter 344 The Other Party's Purpose

Song Shutian's statement and test results are out, and I brought them over when I went to see Jiang Qiao that evening.

"Morphine?" Everyone was stunned. "Damn, that's really ruthless. What are they trying to do?"

Song Shutian sighed, "What are they trying to do? They're after your family's assets. We also re-interrogated that truck driver and conducted another investigation. We found that he shouldn't have taken that route in the first place. Later, he confessed that someone gave him money, and his main purpose was also to target your eldest son."

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines after hearing this. Zhou Yaru was the first to lose her composure, "Then, does that mean our second son won't even be able to leave the house anymore?"

"That won't be the case. I'll send someone to accompany your son when he goes out."

Wen Zhongxuan gave a wry smile. "No need. Even tigers have their moments of weakness, let alone humans. I'll just be more careful when I go out in the future."

Besides, didn't they say they wanted our family's property? If something happens to me again, I bet my dad would rather throw it all away than give it to them.

Wen Zhongxuan wasn't afraid of death, but he felt that having another person around would make things inconvenient. If bad guys dared to openly attack, why would they need to find someone else to ambush his brother on the way?

Wen Zhongxuan didn't think so, but his wife was nervous. Her brother-in-law's whole family was gone, and their family couldn't afford to have anything happen to them too.

He looked at the old man with pitiful eyes, "Dad, please persuade Zhongxuan. No matter what, safety comes first. He has elderly parents to support and young children to raise. You see—"

Wen Songtao looked at Jiang Qiao and then at his son. "How about we get someone to go with you for now and get out of this predicament first? After all, those bad guys aren't exactly idle, are they?"

"Xiao Song, hurry up and catch these people. Or, I can be the bait. They want our money, right? Let them come to me, and that'll solve everything."

Jiang Qiao smiled and shook her head. Song Shutian also said, "This matter is not as simple as you think. If they dare to act openly, they wouldn't be enemy agents."

"But good will prevail over evil. We'll bring these people to justice sooner or later. Don't worry, I'll stay here these days. We'll keep in touch if anything happens, okay, Jiang Qiao?"

Jiang Qiao rolled his eyes at Song Shutian. "Brother Song, you should go back and learn some strategic planning. You can't let the enemy agents lead you by the nose every time. Can't you think of a way to make them come to you? Alright, I'll see you out."

In front of so many people, Song Shutian and Jiang Qiao had some difficulty communicating, as there were some things they couldn't say in front of everyone.

Once outside, Jiang Qiao asked, "What is that woman's background? How did she contact the other party? Also, are she and Milan from the same batch of children?"

"Yes, they are from the same batch, but they were sent to different places for training and education. The adoptive parents accepted money from others and thought they had gotten a good deal, but little did they know that they were bringing back enemy agents."

We've now instructed the police to intensify their outreach and encourage reporting. The prime suspect is still the former director of the orphanage, but we currently don't know anything about him, let alone his whereabouts.

Although Jiang Qiao had been involved in these matters before, she only cared about finding and arresting people. She never asked about or wanted to inquire about the specific details. She was not very interested in this kind of thing to begin with, and her future career was not related to it. Therefore, there were many things that she only learned about today.

"It's wrong at its root?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "Something's definitely wrong in Milan. I'm investigating here too, and I expect to have results by tomorrow. I don't think the spies would be so stupid as to leave such a huge loophole for us."

"Then what is their purpose in wanting the Wen family's assets? Are they short of funds, or are they preparing to flee in the future? You still haven't told us who this woman is in contact with."

"This time, they didn't use the radio, but instead passed messages to each other through the bulletin board. However, this only applies to this woman; we've already sent people to stake out that place."

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "The other party must have found out that the woman was arrested. In other words, this woman doesn't know who her superior is either?"

Song Shutian shook his head and sighed, "It's too much trouble. She said she didn't know anything, only the other party's code name, but the code name doesn't give us much information at all. I suspect that this woman is under Song Yuzhu's leadership, or she is her man."

"Where did she get the morphine from?"

As Song Shutian walked, he explained, "They said it was given to you by the higher-ups. I was originally planning to give it to your grandfather, but I didn't expect you to come here."

However, she also explained that after two days of treatment, someone would come to pick her up and take the two elderly people away. Once they were addicted, they would obediently reveal the location of their hidden assets.

Jiang Qiao, does your maternal grandfather's family really have that much money that they'd be eyeing? Didn't they donate it all? I was just asking a question unrelated to that.

Jiang Qiao snorted, "You're asking me about this? Who am I supposed to ask? I've only been looking for it for a few years."

Besides, even if the Wen family has fallen on hard times, it was once glorious. Even an inconspicuous item in the house might be an antique. For enemy agents who have run out of funds, money will attract their attention.

Besides, Song Yuzhu has been in the Wen family for so many years, she must think that the old man still has some money left over.

Whether it is or not, that's a matter for the Wen family. After all, I'm their granddaughter, you understand?"

Song Shutian smiled and said, "Grandchildren are still a ten percent less than great-grandchildren. It's understandable that you don't know. Whether you have them or not, they are all accumulated by the Wen family ancestors and really have little to do with us outsiders."

Jiang Qiao turned to look at Song Shutian. "What, are you using this name as bait?"

"Alas, the question is whether the enemy will fall for it?"

“If you don’t do it, people definitely won’t fall for it. If you put in the effort, you might be able to give it a try. Also, I think there should be some kind of contact point for them in this place.”

Furthermore, targeting the Wen family's assets might not necessarily be due to a lack of funds. It's a pity, though; what is their ultimate goal? Don't those enemy agents communicate with each other? Are there agents in the Northeast and also in Beijing?

Song Shutian shook his head. "They are all under different leaders, and they are all newcomers. There are not many veteran spies."

Jiang Qiao had learned most of what she needed to know. "Alright, you can go back now. If we need your cooperation later, my grandfather will definitely do his best to cooperate. When I have free time, I'll go out for a walk. If I find anything, that's great. If I don't, there's nothing I can do. This kind of thing can't be done in a day or two."

On the way back, Jiang Qiao kept recalling the events in her mind. In her previous life, she hadn't had much contact with the people and liaison stations here, so she didn't know much about the situation.
