Chapter 341 Little Things

What incredible luck! She ran into spies on a train, and what's worse, she heard them speaking Japanese.

Although I knew there were many spies during this period, this was the first time I had ever directly experienced the shock and impact of an explosion.

The train carriage she was in not only exploded, but the train also derailed due to the huge shockwave, causing a landslide in the nearby mountains.

It was already dark outside. When she came out of the space, she was buried under the mountain soil, and the surroundings were silent and messy.

Once people gradually realized what was happening, the people in the other carriages dared to rush towards the direction of the explosion.

She didn't even dare to pull herself down, because just by looking at the surrounding coordinates, she knew she was at the epicenter of the explosion.

The number of dead and injured in this carriage, and even the carriage next to it, is probably incalculable.

Before anyone else noticed her, Xiao Jiu hid in a ravine.

It wasn't that she was afraid of death, but under such circumstances, if she climbed out of that carriage or stood still, she might arouse suspicion.

The explosion site has been buried by the mountain, which obscures the scene of carnage, and the darkness further hinders visibility.

You can only see people daring to walk this way; if it were daytime, probably no one would dare to approach.

The other carriages weren't in much better shape; the crushing effect of the derailment was already palpable amidst the cries of pain echoing around them.

She had just crawled out of the ground, so she looked extremely disheveled and didn't need much dressing up to blend into the rescue team.

While everyone else was thinking about how to save people, she saw several men hunched over, holding flashlights, anxiously searching for something along both sides of the railway.

Xiao Jiu instinctively felt that these people were not good people, so she took advantage of the space and the darkness to sneak in and out. The moment she got close, she quickly entered the space, and then she heard the two people talking suspiciously in Japanese.

Damn it, he really is a traitor. So, the one who was killed in the bombing earlier had already moved the stuff out before he died?

The fact that the other side was willing to blow up the entire train car just to ensure the transfer of the items suggests that they were extremely important.

Xiao Jiu stopped trying to rescue people and focused on following the traitors in and out of the area until he heard them shouting in fluent Chinese.

"Found it! It's here!"

Under the cover of the surrounding bushes, Xiao Jiu saw something resembling a briefcase being nervously picked up by them. They brushed off the dust, opened it with anxious expressions, and breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing that the documents were still there.

"Thankfully, nothing was damaged. We need to move it out before they do. Quick, let's go!"

Xiao Jiu carefully counted, and there were four tall and strong men in total. How could he take down all four of them?

She watched them walk away and followed. When they sensed someone behind them and turned around, she appeared in the space in an instant.

"Strange, I clearly saw someone, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye?"

"Are you out of your mind from the explosion? Hurry up, we need to get out of here before everyone else reacts."

As they walked further and further away, it became increasingly difficult for Xiao Jiu to keep up, but fortunately she was in good physical condition and had good stamina due to the school's regular morning exercises.

When I get tired, I take out something to eat while I continue.

Because the accident occurred at the end of the train, and they were walking in the direction they had come from, after walking two miles, all they could see was an endless railway track.

The four people remained alert. When one of them looked back, she hid in the space. When the other two looked back to confirm, she hid inside again.

She hid after they saw her.

From their perspective, it was just a small dark shadow. They saw it more than once, and they panicked.

Then Xiao Jiu witnessed the four of them rubbing their eyes repeatedly, while she went in and out with them.

Until their psychological defenses were broken, and they instinctively felt like they had encountered a ghost or something, they let out a scream and actually ran away in fright.

So Xiao Jiu had no choice but to run after her, but she was still young and had no experience in such situations.

In particular, for some reason, they abandoned the railway and instead went down the surrounding valleys.

This mountain road is not easy to walk on. Although the mountains here are not high, the places where railways can be built are surrounded by earthen slopes or small hills that are tens or hundreds of meters high. Back then, in order to build the railway, huge pits were dug everywhere. Over time, some of them were cleared and planted with grain, while others were covered by various kinds of grass.

These four people can't just leave like this; she has to find a way to keep them here.

So after they descended the ravine, they retrieved a grenade from their spatial storage, calculated the angle, pulled the safety rope, and threw the grenade onto the mountainside. With a loud bang, the soil on the mountainside exploded, burying two of the four people in the ground.

When Xiao Jiu saw that the other two didn't have briefcases, he knew that the one with the briefcase had already been shot down. As long as the briefcase was intact, he didn't care if the other two died!

She took out another grenade from her spatial storage. While the two Japanese soldiers were still cowering and searching for her location with their bowed legs spread wide, she blasted the grenade this time. Instead of throwing it at the mountainside, she threw it directly at the two men.

By the time they realized what was happening, the grenade had already exploded. The huge roar not only brought down the surrounding dirt, but also killed the two men instantly.

She observed the area for a while, making sure there was no further movement, before slowly running towards the spot where the explosion had just occurred.

Standing on the slope above the accident site and below it, one realizes that with those two grenades thrown down, the chances of those four people surviving are slim.

Finding the right spot, she took out a shovel from her spatial storage and started digging. When she got tired, she sat down on the mound to rest. Unexpectedly, she worked until dawn before finally digging out the briefcase that the man had been holding.

The four Japanese soldiers hadn't been able to climb out for so long, so they were definitely dead. After she found them, she searched their bodies and took everything. Even if she was afraid they would climb out, she filled the soil back up.

Upon entering the space, she noticed a lot of film rolls and a thick, heavy, sealed file folder inside the briefcase. It was clearly not an ordinary document, so she didn't dare touch it and carefully put it away.

After all, the reason this train had an accident was because of this seemingly insignificant thing.

Perhaps many heroes have already fallen before this, and she must protect them well and carefully hand them over to the right people.

As dawn approached, she hurried along the railway line back to the place where the accident had occurred the previous night.

Fortunately, by this time, many civilians had arrived to help. They were all villagers from nearby who had come after hearing the explosion. She blended in quietly with the evacuating crowd and walked silently with the main group.
