Jiang Qiao didn't say anything about the things the men couldn't understand. Whether Dou Yanhua was the special envoy's daughter or not, they were just speculating and had no concrete evidence.

It seems that the woman's actions have confirmed their previous suspicions.

"If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it. Were you transferred here early because of this, or were you already working here before?"

The man honestly replied, "I was just transferred here. The driver was originally here. As for the woman, she was also recently transferred here. Our main objective is to get close to Dou Yanhua and then find a way to take her away. We have people waiting for us outside. The rest is not our concern."

Jiang Qiao glanced at the man. "Did you plan to act today in advance, or were you notified at the last minute?"

"It was a last-minute notification. I don't know who called me. The caller hung up after explaining the operation, and I have no idea who it was."

The man answered Jiang Qiao's next questions without reservation, even those he didn't know the answers to; and he dared not lie to Jiang Qiao about those he didn't know.

Actually, Jiang Qiao wanted to know more about who the person who called him was and how they happened to be at such a convenient time.

Whether the other party saw them pass by by chance, or whether they had planted a spy among them, this matter was like a thorn in her side. She wouldn't be at ease until she found out who it was.

But we can only ask about this when we get back. As for Dou Yanhua's whereabouts, as long as she hasn't left this land, she can't escape.

You know, it's freezing cold, and Jiang Qiao and the others are just sitting here waiting. Putting aside the fact that they're sleepy, the cold alone is almost unbearable.

The crucial point is that they can't light a fire yet. If they do, the people in the sea might see it. So, everyone has to endure it and hide in their cars if they can.

As for standing guard, everyone has to take turns. The colder the weather, the more likely people are to feel sleepy.

Just as everyone was breathing heavily, Lao Liu's phone rang.

Song Zhiyao's reinforcements are already in place, and the people on the shore will be coming over soon. Please wait here for a while.

Jiang Qiao sighed, "If they hadn't come soon, I wouldn't have been able to stand it anymore. Who would have thought that something like this would have gone wrong halfway through?"

"Uncle Liu, the backup has arrived. Do we still need to coordinate?"

Liu Qiang hesitated for a moment. "In principle, we need to cooperate with their actions. We don't know how many people they have. Let's wait and see."

Jiang Qiao, if you're sleepy, go to the driver's seat and take a nap—

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Forget it. Although it can block out the wind a bit, it gets colder the longer you lie down. It's better to move around outside."

Jiang Qiao ran for a while until she warmed up, then went to the beach to take a look, mainly wanting to get some food to take back.

It was pitch black, and no one would notice what Jiang Qiao was doing. They would just think that the girl had gone out to relieve herself. But this actually made things easier for Jiang Qiao, as there were many more things in the space.

Just as they stopped, they heard the sound of vehicles coming from the shore; their reinforcements must have arrived.

The person who came was chatting enthusiastically with Liu Qiang, while Jiang Qiao didn't approach. Only after the other person finished talking did Liu Qiang come over to explain the situation to Jiang Qiao.

"We'll leave two people here to assist them. You take the rest of the people back first. Take these prisoners back to the station for a thorough interrogation."

Jiang Qiao was overjoyed that it had nothing to do with her. She didn't go home all night because she was afraid that the old man and Ning Hao would worry.

"Uncle Liu, we'll be going now. Please take care."

Liu Qiang smiled and nodded, "The people who were blocking us at sea have already gone over. I guess we're fine here. Just leave us a car."

Jiang Qiao jumped into the car without any hesitation, waved to Liu Qiang and the others, and decisively drove away.

Everyone was freezing. Before coming here, we didn't expect this to happen. Even our cotton-padded coats and trousers couldn't withstand being outside for so long.

When Song Shutian received Song Zhi's call, he said "good" several times.

"I'm relieved that everything is alright. This time, we were careless. Otherwise, we wouldn't have fallen for the enemy's trap."

"We're interrogating them now. You keep a close eye on things too. Make sure you find Dou Yanhua and don't let them escape the county."

"Don't worry, all departments have already taken action, and the garrison is also cooperating. It will be difficult for them to escape from the county. If anything happens, we'll contact you immediately."

Song Shutian put down the phone, rubbed his face vigorously, feeling sleepy. But now was not the time to sleep; the interrogation wasn't over yet.

Song Shutian went downstairs and shared Jiang Qiao's good news with everyone.

After hearing this, Wang Benshan and the others were all grinning from ear to ear. "Hehe, I knew Jiang Qiao would be alright. This girl has never let me down. She's amazing. She truly deserves to be the hero we chose."

"How is this girl so capable? Not only did she escape safely from the enemy's clutches, but she also managed to capture them. Not everyone has that kind of skill."

Cao Mingyuan grinned, "That's right, don't you think about it? Jiang Qiao is hiding something all over her body. The enemy would never even imagine it. Hehe, I'm so happy. This is the most enjoyable thing to do all night."

"Chief, I'd like to request some drinks so we can get a good night's sleep after the interrogation."

Song Shutian smiled and nodded, "I think it's a good idea. Everyone has worked hard tonight, so let's hurry up and finish recording all the statements as soon as possible."

Zhang Dalei was most concerned about the special envoy: "What about that woman and the strategist? Any news?"

Song Shutian shook his head. "Not yet. They're searching too. The enemy planned this in advance. They probably won't find it anytime soon. You guys go ahead and get busy. I'll have the mess hall prepare extra meals for you. Comrades, you've all worked hard—"

The others laughed and shook their heads. "It's not hard work. As long as we can dig out all the enemy agents behind this, it's worth it even if we're tired."

The first batch of confessions arrived, and Song Shutian began to look at them one by one. The first one he looked at was that so-called dean.

This guy is a coward. It's said that he confessed not long after. The reason Song Shutian paid attention to this person was because Jiang Qiao was the first to mention him.

After reading the man's statement, Song Shutian shook his head repeatedly. How did someone like this manage to infiltrate their team? He really couldn't understand the person who investigated the personnel back then.

Why wasn't this person's past investigated properly? The other party said that he worked as a clerk in a pharmacy and then participated in the workers' movement, which is how he gradually infiltrated their ranks.

Why hasn't anyone investigated who this person has been in contact with before? If you look closely, it's quite clear that the person joined an enemy intelligence organization while working at the pharmacy and received specialized training. There's something wrong with that time period alone.

Having thought of this, I wrote down my doubts on the paper and then looked at the next one.
