According to Guo Quezi's confession, he was a secret agent left behind by the Nationalist Army when it retreated.
He initially hid in the mountains as a bandit, but later, when the bandits were being wiped out, he came down the mountain and hid among the people.
He also revealed that he had two accomplices who lived in the next village.
Qin Muye immediately rushed to the next village with several comrades and arrested the man.
After arresting all the people, Qin Muye prepared to leave with the prisoners in a military vehicle.
Today they drove a Jiefang brand truck. When the prisoners were put on the truck, Qin Muye thanked Xie Wan:
"Comrade Xie Wan, you have made a great contribution to the capture of these hidden enemy spies today.
I will report to the organization as soon as I get back.
The organization will certainly recognize your contribution.”
Xie Wan took the opportunity to say, "Comrade Qin Muye, can I take your car and go into the city together?"
Qin Muye misunderstood Xie Wan, thinking that she was afraid that he would take away her credit. His face turned cold and he assured her, "Comrade Xie Wan, you have to believe me. The credit for arresting the enemy spy this time belongs to you. I will never take away your credit."
Xie Wan waved her hand, "Comrade Qin Muye, you misunderstood. I want to take your car into the city to find my biological father.
Although he abandoned me, I never forgot that I am the descendant of a soldier.
I hope that when the organization honors me, they will allow my biological father to sit in on the ceremony.”
After saying that, Xie Wan lowered his head and looked aggrieved.
Qin Muye was stunned. He knew too well the feeling of wanting to be recognized by his father.
At this moment, he empathized with Xie Wan.
He readily agreed: "Okay, get in the car."
The military vehicle was too high for Xie Wan to climb up, so Qin Muye lifted her up.
The other soldiers were very enthusiastic when they saw Xie Wan.
They knew that it was this girl who provided the main clues and caught the spy.
They originally planned to stay nearby for a few days and slowly find the spies, but they didn't expect that they would successfully complete the mission in less than a day.
On the way, Xie Wan's stomach began to growl.
The two fish she grilled for lunch were both ruined by Guo Quezi, and she got nothing to eat.
A piece of compressed biscuit was handed to Xie Wan.
Xie Wan smiled at Qin Muye with gratitude, took it and started eating.
Ding Wang, who was standing next to him, handed his military water bottle to Xie Wan.
Xie Wan stared at the kettle in Qin Muye's hand.
Qin Muye's expression paused, and he handed his kettle to Xie Wan.
Xie Wan took the kettle from Qin Muye.
Ding Wang seemed to have discovered some big secret, and the flame of gossip burned in his heart. He asked, "Big sister, have you and our battalion commander known each other for a long time?"
Xie Wan grinned and said, "Yes, Comrade Qin Muye is my savior."
When Qin Muye saw her improper look, he inexplicably recalled the first time they met, when she had given him a kiss that was a token of her ungratefulness.
Qin Muye shuddered and quickly moved away.
The road conditions in this era were very poor and very bumpy.
Xie Wan was shaken so hard that he was almost thrown out several times.
By inertia, she was thrown to Qin Muye again.
Qin Muye moved again, giving her his seat, and then she was thrown over again...
Qin Muye deeply suspected that Xie Wan did it on purpose.
In the end, Qin Muye was too lazy to move anymore.
The soldiers in the car were so tired that they fell asleep.
Xie Wan also fell asleep.
Her body staggered from side to side and her head almost hit the guardrail.
Qin Muye had no choice but to sit between her and the guardrail to prevent her from hitting her head or accidentally flying out of the car.
It was already midnight when the car drove back to the army.
Qin Muye woke Xie Wan up.
"We're here. Which company is your father in? I'll take you there."
Xie Wan took out her biological father's address in a daze.
Qin Muye took one look and became uneasy. He asked, "Are you really the daughter of Master Xie?"
Xie Wan also woke up.
She pursed her lips and looked like she was about to cry, "My father is Xie Dahong, but he abandoned me when I was very young!
My stepfather and biological mother couldn't tolerate me and never gave me food to eat all year round.
I had no other choice but to come to him."
Qin Muye looked at Xie Wan's obviously malnourished appearance, and thought of her bravery and wisdom in catching spies. He felt mixed emotions and had some opinions about Xie Dahong.
"Come on, I'll get you a room in the guesthouse and you can stay there for one night.
Wait until tomorrow, and I'll go with you to see him!"
Qin Muye accompanied Xie Wan to the guesthouse.
Then, an embarrassing thing happened - Xie Wan didn't have a letter of introduction and couldn't stay in the guesthouse.
Xie Wan slapped his head, feeling very upset.
She had not yet adapted to the order of the times and had forgotten that she needed a letter of introduction when going out.
"Forget it, I'll just stay by the wall outside the guesthouse for the night, okay?
This is a military area, there will definitely be no problem with public security."
Xie Wan said pitifully.
Qin Muye shook his head: "That won't work. There will be patrols in the middle of the night. If you don't have a letter of introduction, you will be arrested."
There was no other way, so Qin Muye accompanied Xie Wan and knocked on Xie Dahong's door in the middle of the night.
Xie Dahong lives in the cadre dormitory area and has a small yard at home.
The two of them banged on the iron gate outside the yard and waited for a long time before the nanny came to open the door.
When the nanny saw that Qin Muye was wearing a military uniform and was looking for Xie Dahong, she thought it was official business and did not dare to delay and went in to call for help immediately.
Xie Dahong came out in his military uniform, and when he saw Qin Muye, he asked with an unhappy look on his face, "Qin Muye, why can't you call me first for any urgent matters?"
