Transmigrated into a poor peasant family, lacking clothes and food, life is hard enough, why must she also be schemed against by her only relative?
So she's not their biological child, wh...
After saying this, Wang Benshan hesitated for a moment and looked at Song Shutian. "Director Song, during this time of treatment, I remembered something very important."
Before we went undercover, I heard our station chief say that we would be assigned someone who had completed training to come over, but in the end, I never saw that person who had been trained.
I now suspect that those who completed the training might simply go underground.
"What? You mean Cobra has another group of people like that under his command?"
Seeing Song Shutian's surprised expression, Wang Benshan nodded. "This is just my guess. Perhaps something went wrong and the person didn't come."
However, it's always good to think of the worst-case scenario first.
Also, I've been thinking about something. You mentioned Xu Shaoqing before, and I've been thinking about it for a while now. Let's assume he faked his death. But, as you know, he wasn't an unseen figure back then; some people knew him.
Even if this person is incredibly capable, don't you think the higher-ups will have some reservations? What if someone recognizes them? In that case, their infiltration would be considered a failure.
Song Shutian looked at Wang Benshan with suspicion, "You mean to say that perhaps this Xu Shaoqing is not Cobra?"
Wang Benshan shook his head. "That's not entirely true. There's another possibility: this Xu Shaoqing might be Cobra, but he doesn't look the same as he used to. Even if someone who knows him sees him, they might not recognize him."
Another possibility is that Xu Shaoqing is operating behind the scenes, and the one appearing in public might be a fake Cobra. This possibility has been considered before, just like with Lone Wolf.
Wang Benshan's words made Song Shutian think. There were some things they might have considered before, but there were some things they really didn't know.
Just like those special trainees who went missing and didn't report for duty, did they stay or were they simply withdrawn?
The key question is, have these people become personnel that Cobra can use?
Thinking of this, Song Shutian couldn't sit still any longer; he had to report this matter to his superiors immediately.
"Old Wang, do you know approximately how many people were in that training group, and their names?"
Wang Benshan shook his head. "Back then, I only heard the stationmaster mention it briefly, and I didn't take it seriously. It was just something said at the dinner table."
Song Shutian nodded. "That's settled then. You go and rest first. You've just arrived and your body hasn't fully recovered yet. I'll report this to my superiors first."
As for those people, don't worry, I won't send any disloyal ones to you, so you don't need to worry about that.
Furthermore, if necessary, I will send Jiang Qiao over there. You know Jiang Qiao's current situation; if she shows her face, it will likely alert Cobra. That's why I've been delaying her appearance.
"Of course, when you officially start using these people, I'll have Jiang Qiao talk to them. Don't worry about anything else."
Wang Benshan breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as Jiang Qiao takes action and communicates well with these people, and we send someone to be the group leader, I won't have any major problems."
To be honest, someone who's willing to cooperate with Jiang Qiao can't be too bad. If something really happens in the future, at least I won't worry about someone launching a fatal attack on me from behind.
"I understand, I get it. You don't need to think about it too much. Just rest first, and we'll discuss it again later."
After Wang Benshan went downstairs, he learned what problems Liu Zhanyu and the others had encountered.
"Huh? You mean, the special envoy and the strategist might be hiding here?"
Wang Benshan really didn't quite believe it. He thought, "What's the point of hiding in a hospital? It's better to hide deep in the mountains and forests, at least there you won't be surrounded and hunted down."
"Could you have made a mistake? It seems unlikely. In this place, once someone discovers it, it would be easy to be surrounded and captured."
Liu Zhanyu patted Wang Benshan on the shoulder and said, "That's right. So we're investigating. Perhaps they have another way to escape?"
"Old Wang, have you ever been here before?"
When talking about the past, Wang Benshan still felt a little embarrassed. At that time, his identity was something he didn't even want to mention. It was truly a painful memory.
However, since Liu Zhanyu asked, Wang Benshan readily nodded and said, "I have been here, but you have arrested all the people I know who should have been arrested. There are also a few who are not work friends, but personal friends."
With so many hospitals, I don't know which one you're referring to. I did know the founder of a mental hospital before, a foreigner—"
This one sentence immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and Liu Zhanyu excitedly asked, "What's the name of that mental hospital?"
"St. Paul's Asylum, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"This is very suspicious, Lao Wang. Tell us quickly, does this mental hospital have any tunnels?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Benshan looked utterly astonished. "You, you're not telling me that woman has hidden in a mental hospital?"
Zhang Dalei clapped his hands. "That's right! Old Wang, Old Wang, tell us quickly, is there a tunnel? Where does the tunnel lead?"
Cao Mingyuan was even more straightforward, pulling Wang Benshan to sit down next to him. "Old Wang, tell us quickly, we're in a real hurry. We suspect that the woman and the strategist have entered this hospital."
We're worried that the hospital director might be involved, and even more afraid that some of the people inside might be their accomplices. We haven't dared to go in directly, hence the urgent investigation. Unfortunately, not many people know the details.
After hearing this, Wang Benshan couldn't help but laugh. "I didn't expect it to be a hospital I know. It's a real place. And believe it or not, I really do know."
Cao Mingyuan excitedly grabbed Wang Benshan's arm, "What exactly is the tunnel like, and where does it lead?"
Wang Benshan asked in surprise, "Where does it lead? What do you mean? Was the tunnel opened up later?"
That's impossible. My friend didn't mention anything about digging a tunnel.
He did mention a tunnel back then, in a rather secluded place, apparently hidden in the wall between the bathroom and the wall on the first floor. I've never heard of that. I wonder where it led.
This was built back then as a precaution. If it was actually dug through, that could only have happened later. The person who did it was a priest at the time; he probably didn't have any ulterior motives. He went back home afterward, and I don't know who got the hospital.
Cao Mingyuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, it's pointless to ask you."
Wang Benshan smiled and said, "I can't say it was a waste of time to ask. At least I know how long this tunnel is. I heard it was dug to about fifty meters. You can calculate where those fifty meters extend to."
If I remember correctly, he said that the gate has been dug out. As for whether there will be any changes here in the future, I don't know. You can go and check it out.
If the tunnel is excavated later, the other party will definitely consider many things. They can't just suddenly find something like this, right?
Besides, whoever's home you dig into, they won't be happy, right? Either they're one of their own, or the exit point is in a location no one would expect.
