Given the current situation, Gu Zhengkai naturally couldn't escape it either. The key point was that enemy agents had caused trouble here. Those brainless bastards, since the whip hadn't been applied to them, didn't care about her uncle's life or death.

After much pressure, he was finally able to speak normally: "Tell me, what's their situation?"

Jiang Qiao was alarmed as she listened. This was not just a small-scale matter. Now, these people were almost a force to be reckoned with. If things continued like this, and they were led by the nose by the enemy, they would become a scourge on society.

"More importantly, I've heard that things here seem to have close ties with the neighboring province. If that's true, Jiang Qiao, do you know what that means?"

Even before Jiang Qiao could say anything, Hou Diankui had already figured it out: "Could this be a joint operation between enemy agents?"

Ning Hao nodded solemnly. "That's what I'm afraid of, so I need to talk to Uncle Song and the others about this."

Jiang Qiao sighed. "Hopefully, these are all just our speculations. What else?"

Ning Hao continued to chat with Jiang Qiao and the others about the information they had gathered. To be honest, these kids were quite efficient; in just two days, they had found out everything they needed to know.

Where exactly does my uncle live?

Ning Hao sighed, "It seems he's locked up in their backyard. To see him, you need the approval of their boss. Unfortunately, I can't get through to him."

Jiang Qiao couldn't sit still any longer. "Shall we go over and meet them tonight?"

Not to mention Ning Hao, even Hou Diankui disagreed. "No, if there are really enemy agents involved here, wouldn't you be walking into a trap if you went there?"

Jiang Qiao immediately became anxious. "What can we do? We can't just stand by and watch my uncle be tortured to death by them!"

Hou Diankui snorted twice, "If you go to their doorstep, your uncle will die even faster. We need to think of a way to take them down."

Ning Hao shook his head in disagreement. "You can't rush this. I've already sent our people in. As for whether we'll be able to see them, we'll have to wait and see. Right now, the most important thing is how to take these people down."

If they really gain power, this will be difficult to handle. It's not just about enemy spies; there are also some people who have been deceived, and we can't condemn them all.

Jiang Qiao pursed her lips. "Instead of going to school or work properly, you're messing around with these people. How can things possibly get better?"

Ning Hao sighed, "It's not just a matter of numbers. Jiang Qiao and his group also have weapons. I heard they've been quite aggressive in seizing territory lately, and several factions have even started fighting each other. So, we need to be careful. I heard there have been deaths involved, but unfortunately, no one dares to intervene."

Jiang Qiao was so angry that she couldn't sit still any longer. "Even after all this, no one dares to do anything about it? This is simply lawless!"

No, we have to think of something—

Ning Hao pulled Jiang Qiao down to sit. "Don't rush. I know you're worried about your uncle, but some things aren't as simple as they seem. Sit down and I'll tell you. I'll just ask you one question: where did they get their weapons? Think about it."

Hou Diankui nodded in agreement. The old man hadn't thought much about it before, but Ning Hao's words immediately brought him to his senses.

Jiang Qiao has been bedridden for four years. There are many things that this child doesn't understand. He only sees the surface. As an old man, he doesn't want to care about these things, as long as they don't cause him trouble.

After hearing Ning Hao's words, Jiang Qiao understood everything. She realized that she had acted impulsively before, and that she might have really implicated her family.

"Then, what should we do? We can't just do nothing. What about my uncle? My grandfather only has these two sons left. This time it's my uncle, but next time it might be our whole family. I can't let this happen to me."

Let me think about it carefully. There must be a solution here; we just haven't thought of it yet.

Hou Diankui nodded in agreement, "What the girl said makes sense. Let's all think about it carefully. We can't rush things. We need to save the person, and we also need to solve the problem."

While sipping her tea, Jiang Qiao asked, "What exactly was the problem with my uncle's online account back then?"

Ning Hao actually knew about this. Chen Fang had investigated it for them. "It seems to be a rightist, which has nothing to do with your uncle's matter."

Jiang Qiao nodded thoughtfully. "That's fine then. Since no other problems have arisen, the original testimony is valid."

Hou Diankui gave a wry smile. "But what if those people don't believe or listen?"

Jiang Qiao suddenly laughed, "Master Hou, aren't we still here? You'll have to step in when the time comes."

The old man was taken aback. "What do you mean, girl? You want this old man to go to the front lines?"

Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded, "You still have to go back and take care of Jiang He's illness, just like before."

The old man chuckled, "You silly girl, what mischievous idea are you plotting this time? Tell me!"

Hou Diankui likes Jiang Qiao for being quick to avenge wrongs; holding back doesn't seem to be her style.

Jiang Qiao turned to look at Ning Hao, and before she could speak, she laughed, "Tell me, you didn't just send someone to infiltrate, did you?"

Ning Hao smiled and gave a thumbs up. "Impressive, you even guessed that. Yes, I also sent people to infiltrate their side. There must be a legitimate reason for this."

Jiang Qiao shrugged and said, "That's settled then. Let them stir things up, and we'll add fuel to the fire from behind."

Hou Diankui hesitated for a moment, "Girl, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Jiang Qiao smiled and shook his head. "I didn't let them actually fight, but I need a reason to deal with them. If it works for you, it will save me trouble. If it doesn't work for you, then we'll proceed with the second plan."

We can't let those enemy agents hiding behind the scenes get away with it, can we?

Hou Diankui sighed, "The most important thing is to dig out the enemy agents behind this. That's a bit difficult. Girl, this matter depends on you."

Jiang Qiao looked at Ning Hao and said, "In the next few days, have our people focus on finding out information about this place."

As they were talking, Song Zhi and the others returned. Judging from their expressions, Jiang Qiao immediately understood.

"Have they caught the person yet?" Hou Diankui asked impatiently as his first question.

Song Zhi sighed, "They ran away. By the time our men got there, they were long gone. I guess those two didn't respond last night, so the other side became alert."

"And what about the other person?"

"I checked too. The house was supposedly just seized. I don't know how those two people ended up in such a place. They can't find anyone there."

Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "These people are always cautious, but it seems they've become much more cunning than before. There's nowhere to investigate them."

What exactly is going on with that woman? Do you have any suspects on your side?
