Chapter 103 Shen Zhao suspects Jiang Xun is the one who died.
On the other side.
In the office of the county public security bureau.
A middle-aged man in uniform, with a dignified expression, was looking down at something.
Shen Zhao sat opposite him, waiting quietly.
After a long while, the middle-aged man raised his head and asked in a low voice, "Have you found out anything about the two deceased?"
"We found out. He was a handyman who had just arrived in Guanshan Town a couple of days ago to perform a model opera."
At this point, Shen Zhao continued, "These two have relatively distant relationships with others and rarely interact with them, so no one knows their bottom line."
"Hmm." The middle-aged man nodded, glanced at the letter again, and sighed, "This is a bit strange. How could it be such a coincidence..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao's expression turned solemn, and his brows furrowed tightly.
He also felt something was off.
The letter contained information about two enemy agents communicating with their superiors.
Logically, the two enemy agents should have been highly secretive, so how could they have been killed by such a coincidence, and then their identities discovered by the enemy just as conveniently...?
Thinking of this, Shen Zhao suddenly recalled the murder case of the female educated youth that had occurred in Guishi Village before.
Hu Fang, an enemy agent hidden among the educated youth, once told him that he was almost beaten to death by the leader when they were in the cave.
But someone suddenly appeared and saved him, which allowed him to escape and later have the opportunity to confess everything.
After hearing about this, Shen Zhao also investigated the mysterious person, but found nothing.
These two events, when connected, share a common point:
That is, the mysterious people in these two incidents seem to really like to hand over enemy agents to their public security comrades.
It was as if they were helping each other in secret.
Shen Zhao had previously served in the Army Special Forces for two years and knew that in their line of work, there was a highly confidential mission that required a specialist to carry it out.
Perhaps this mysterious person is doing this?
For some reason, a familiar face suddenly flashed through Shen Zhao's mind...

In the afternoon, at the town clinic.
Jiang Xun had just returned from checking the rooms when he saw a tall figure standing at the office door.
He raised an eyebrow: "Captain Chen, what brings you here?"
Shen Zhao: "I have something to tell you."
"Come in and talk," Jiang Xun said, unlocking the office door with his key.
The two entered the office and sat down. Jiang Xun asked him, "What's the matter?"
"Regarding the murder case this morning," Shen Zhao said slowly, his gaze fixed intently on him.
“I found a suspicious detail on one of the victims, which I believe was left by the murderer.”
"Hmm, and then?" Jiang Xun asked calmly, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Shen Zhao: "I have collected the items and sent them to the capital. I hope we can retrieve the murderer's fingerprints."
Fingerprint identification in China is still not very advanced; it can only be done in a few major cities like Beijing and Shanghai.
But Shen Zhao was lying to Jiang Xun; in reality, he hadn't found anything.
"Oh, that's good." Jiang Xun shrugged, looking relaxed. "Then there's nothing for me to do."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao paused slightly.
He was indeed testing the waters, but the other party seemed completely unconcerned.
From the moment he first saw Jiang Xun, he felt inexplicably familiar with him.
But he didn't think much of it at the time, because the person in his memory had already heroically sacrificed himself.
In their subsequent interactions, Shen Zhao treated the other person as just an ordinary person.
But the more he learned about it, the more surprised he became.
Jiang Xun is an unassuming person who keeps a low profile.
But when faced with some tricky situations, he is decisive and efficient, and you can tell at a glance that he has been through a lot.
Such a person would not logically settle for living in such a small town.
Unless... there is some reason.
Shen Zhao sat in the chair, carefully examining the person in front of him.
He then realized that Jiang Xun's eyes resembled those of the person who had already sacrificed himself.
They all had indifferent, dark eyes, clear and without a trace of impurity.
The man always wore a silver fox mask, hence his code name Silver Fox.
He had seen the man's face when he attended Silver Fox's funeral.
It was a very ordinary face, completely different from Dr. Jiang in front of him.
That's strange. Why do two people with different appearances have such similar temperaments?
Just as Shen Zhao was lost in thought, a clear, slightly teasing voice rang out:
"Captain Chen, are you staring at me like that because you're looking for something on my face?"
"Ahem...excuse me." Shen Zhao quickly looked away.
"Here, have a glass of water." Jiang Xun poured a glass of water and handed it to him.
"Thank you." After taking a sip of water, Shen Zhao looked up and said, "Dr. Jiang, you seem to be quite skilled. Have you trained before?"
Jiang Xun said calmly, "Yes, I was born into a family of doctors, and I practiced physical fitness techniques with my grandfather and father since I was a child."
"Oh, I see." The doubt in Shen Zhao's eyes gradually faded.
He had heard about Silver Fox's background while he was in the army: she was an orphan with no parents.
Dr. Jiang's temperament and eyes are somewhat similar to the other person's, but they are completely different elsewhere.
It seems that Dr. Jiang is not Silver Fox, and therefore certainly not that mysterious person.
Shen Zhao felt a deep, indescribable regret.
Silver Fox had always been his most admired figure, and if he could, he would truly wish that the other person hadn't died.
pity......
"I'm fine now, so I won't bother you any longer."
With a sigh in his heart, Shen Zhao stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you," Jiang Xun called out to him.
"Hmm, what is it?" Shen Zhao turned his head in confusion.
Jiang Xun's voice was clear, but there was a hint of coldness in his words:
"This morning I heard you arguing with your mother, and I heard her talking about Comrade Jiang, so you are...."
He paused at this point and didn't continue.
A look of surprise flashed across Shen Zhao's eyes.
He never expected that Dr. Jiang, who was usually aloof, would ask him such a personal question.
Could it be that he also has feelings for Comrade Jiang...?
"It was just a misunderstanding on my mother's part," Shen Zhao replied calmly.
"Oh, is that so?" Jiang Xun's lips curled slightly, and he said casually.
"Then I hope you can deal with your mother as soon as possible. Judging from her appearance, she will probably cause trouble for Comrade Jiang."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao's gaze darkened, and he slowly raised his head.
Jiang Xun happened to look up at him as well.
His dark, jade-like eyes radiated an unfathomable light.
The two stood facing each other silently, gazing at each other for a long time, neither of them speaking.
Until Shen Zhao couldn't help but speak first...
