"I never expected this, Zhao Xiaoli." Li Xiyue released her hair and instead pinched her chin. "You've really made something of yourself, becoming an enemy agent."

Zhao Xiaoli glared at Li Xiyue through gritted teeth, wishing she could devour her.

Li Xiyue released her, stood up, looked at her stupid appearance, and sneered, "But this pheasant is also stupid. She found an idiot like you to do things. It's no wonder that nothing can be accomplished."

“You’re right, I’ve got the wrong person!” the pheasant said in broken Chinese. “This good-for-nothing, you’ve already put her in the cowshed. She hasn’t done a single thing I asked her to do.”

Was he blind? How could he have chosen such a stupid woman?

Zhao Xiaoli was unconvinced and felt somewhat aggrieved, "It's Li Xiyue who's too cunning, you can't blame me."

"It's you, you stupid woman, all talk and no action!" the pheasant cursed.

Enraged, Zhao Xiaoli lunged at him like a madwoman, scratching his face. "You blame me? You're just as stupid as me, getting caught so easily! You've ruined my life, you damn bastard!"

Tsk tsk tsk.

Li Xiyue, however, thought highly of Zhao Xiaoli. Judging from her ruthlessness in tearing apart Xiaoli's life, she should be held partially responsible for her mistakes.

The pheasant's face was scratched into a bloody mess, it was terrifying.

Zhao Xiaoli was still not satisfied. She grabbed his collar and slammed his head against the ground. "You damned Japanese devil, you can't do anything yourself and you blame me. If you're so capable, go find someone more capable. The fact that you can only come to me proves that you're also incompetent. You useless piece of trash, a stinking piece of rotten scum from the gutter!"

This was the first time Li Xiyue had ever seen Zhao Xiaoli so quick-witted. Although she was a bit dim-witted, she was a good fighter and could insult people with a sharp tongue, which was quite impressive.

Fearing she might kill him, Chen Yu pulled her away. Zhao Xiaoli was still baring her teeth and claws, so Chen Yu simply chopped her unconscious with a chop to the neck.

"Get the person in the car first," Chu Xun said.

Chen Yu nodded, then took one person in each hand and dragged them away.

Chu Xun approached Li Xiyue and said, "Now that the enemy spy around you has been caught, I can finally relax a bit."

“These enemy agents are all so stupid, you’re worrying for nothing.” Li Xiyue winked playfully.

Chu Xun chuckled, his tone indulgent, "Yes, you're the smartest."

He paused for a moment, then asked, "When did you discover that Zhao Xiaoli was an enemy agent?"

Li Xiyue said, "Some villagers discovered that there was a man hiding in Zhao Xiaoli's house. At first, I thought she wanted to leave the cowshed and had hooked up with a villager. Later, she deliberately tricked me into coming here, and that's when I guessed it."

"They can't even hide a person; they're really stupid." Chu Xun shook his head.

Li Xiyue asked, "You knew it was her all along, didn't you? You've been secretly watching her, trying to find out who instructed her?"

"yes."

Li Xiyue glanced at the cowshed. "You're just taking people away like this? What will you do if the team leaders ask about it?"

"Chen Yu will tell you that Zhao Xiaoli committed a crime and that we took her away for a covert investigation. As long as the matter doesn't come to light, your brigade cadres won't say anything."

Li Xiyue nodded, "That's true."

"Now that we've caught him, I need to go back and interrogate him."

Li Xiyue nodded, "You go ahead, I'm going back to the village too."

"If you need anything, come find me in town," Chu Xun said before leaving.

Li Xiyue saw him get into a jeep not far away, and the car started and sped away, kicking up a cloud of dust.

A gust of wind blew, the dust settled, and everything returned to calm.

Li Xiyue smiled, turned and left.

"Erniu, what's wrong?"

Suddenly, the sound of a child crying came from a hill not far from the cowshed.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiyue quickly went over and saw a girl lying on the ground, with another girl shaking her.

"What's wrong?" Li Xiyue asked.

The girl cried and pointed at her companion on the ground, "Er Niu just fainted, boohoo..."
