"How are you? Are you feeling unwell? They gave you sleeping pills, and the doctor told you to drink plenty of water to detoxify yourself these few days."
He explained the situation clearly and showed concern for her health. Comrade Xiao's mission was risky, even though the primary evidence wasn't on her side. But for completing the mission so quickly, Xiao Jiang deserves credit.
"It's nothing serious. Apart from feeling dizzy and wanting to sleep, there are no other symptoms."
Jiang Cha, lying in bed, honestly said that this trip wasn't risky, except for the last hit. He explained the situation to them and could rest for a few more days. It was up to them to ask for leave from work. Anyway, he needed a few days of rest after his meritorious service.
For the next three days, someone came to deliver meals on time every day. There was a guard at the door, and even the nurse who came to administer the IV drip was incredibly kind.
On the day she was discharged from the hospital, Uncle Zhao came to pick her up. She thought she could go home and rest, but he took her to a place.
"Someone wants to see you. Don't be nervous when you go in later! I'll follow you, don't be afraid!"
She had a hunch, maybe it was a certificate of honor for her?
"Come here, don't be nervous. I was your father's supervisor when he was alive. My last name is Yuan. You have made a great contribution to this matter."
"You're welcome! It's my pleasure! Grandpa Yuan!"
She had to pretend to be polite, otherwise she would not be able to control the corners of her mouth. She was proud and felt that she had not embarrassed Jiang Dad.
"What I want to tell you is a bit long. Sit down and let's talk about it slowly. Back then, your father and the man surnamed Li met while on a mission.
Your father saved him, and the two have been connected ever since. This is also why, after your father's death, Mr. Li adopted you, and why others agreed. A child of your savior will never let you suffer any injustice.
When you were at the Li family, none of those uncles and aunts ever came to see you. It's not that they're snobs, but your Uncle Zhao always felt that there was something fishy about your parents.
They intend to secretly investigate what went wrong, but they are afraid that someone will attack you, so they deliberately distance themselves from you, making the person hiding in the dark think that you know nothing and have been abandoned by them.
In reality, they hadn't given up on the investigation. They had long suspected Li, but they were afraid of alerting him. At the end of the year, his son had gone to the Northwest, and his wife had been sent there to join the army, which made him feel that he still held a place of importance in the hearts of Lao Zhao and his group. So, they planned this chance encounter in Zhengzhou, and the people on the train were also their accomplices. According to their explanation, they had two plans.
1. He kidnaps you on a train, holds you captive, and waits until you're completely devastated, then he comes out to rescue you. If you're willing to treat him as your savior, he'll be able to do whatever he asks you to do.
2. You meet by chance at the station, and by reminiscing about the past, you keep in touch with him, and he gives you the impression that he is your supporter, different from other people.
In order to be able to return to the compound in the future and transfer to a better job, they asked you to provide him with some information, the source of which was from childhood friends and their families in the compound. They planned to use money to corrupt you and make you their spy.
Grandpa Yuan said a lot in one breath, but to sum it up, she was clearly a discarded pawn. Who knew she would turn the tide and become close to the compound? So he planned to use her to obtain the necessary intelligence.
"I don't understand. He's obviously not Chinese, so how can he be a soldier?"
She had never figured this out. Even if there was a problem, Jiang's father wouldn't befriend him. She wasn't bragging. From what she knew, Jiang's father and mother were both very shrewd people.
It was really difficult to hide the fact that we had been friends for so many years from their eyes. Even she could quickly become suspicious of the one with the surname Li, let alone the two of them who had been on the battlefield.
"Comrade Li Jiyong is a good comrade. The one we arrested was an imposter over there. Li Jiyong was seriously injured during a mission and spent several months in a township hospital.
Because the injury was so severe, it was not suitable to move the patient. The young soldier assigned to take care of the patient was so young that he did not notice that the patient had been switched.
This time, after catching him, we learned that they have a type of surgery in Korea that can change one's appearance. It's similar to the legendary face-changing technique in our country. He had surgery on his face, and Li Jiyong suffered serious facial injuries.
After recovering, his face was left with many scars, and the difference in his facial features was mistaken for a serious injury. The facial bone injury and slight disfigurement were ignored. Many people are disfigured by injuries, but his appearance was only slightly different.
After adopting you, he had planned to build a good relationship with Xiao Zhao and the others, using you to get close to them. But who knew that this group of people were so snobbish and turned against him the moment you left.
There was no way to send you back, so I had to keep you at home. Guo abused you, but he turned a blind eye and hoped to torture you to death to save trouble.
During the Chinese New Year, because his son went to the countryside, your true relationship was exposed, so they made plans against you."
It turned out to be a chain reaction caused by Aunt Guo's disturbance at the workplace. Aunt Qin and Aunt Liu came to support him, giving him hope again, which led to his taking action.
"He's such a stingy guy, and he wants to bribe me and corrupt me? He wants to corrupt me with pickles? He just gives me a piece of chocolate, and the rest of the time we meet is just pickles.
There was no shortage of salt at home, so if he had switched to something else, I wouldn't have been so quick to decide. My dad once told me a story about how Koreans loved to eat pickles.
I also like to go to the garbage dump of the US military to pick up leftovers. The mixed vegetables mixed together are called a pot, but in fact, it is not even a basket.
When he treated me to a meal, he showed off to me that his hometown had a famous dish made by stewing various ingredients together. I knew he was from there as soon as I heard him. He was quite proud of stewing garbage.
Besides, our Yanji is located in the Northeast, and every family can make stews, and any stew is better than a broken pot.
Besides eating, the ones I've seen all have carrot legs and a 50/50 build. He can pass for the real Uncle Li probably because, besides a slight resemblance, he's also a rare 1.8 meters tall.
I complained to Grandpa Yuan seriously, and the old man laughed out loud.
"That's right, they're like that. Back when we were fighting there, we often saw their backs. They were all bow-legged and ran very fast, looking so cowardly. The supplies we captured were all pickles, that's for sure!"
Look at him, he hasn't improved at all in decades. Besides being a braggart and a conceited person, he just steals things from his father's house and claims them as his own.
Jiang Cha stayed in Qing City. Their trial would take a long time. There were some things that required her cooperation, so staying here wouldn't delay her food and drink.
Get a couple of beers and some small fish, and even better, some clams.
Maybe God couldn't bear it, so she had time to eat and drink while others were so busy.
"Xiao Jiang, I called you over here because I have something to tell you. Remember, we are all your family, and everything is in the past.
After two days of trial, we have learned that your parents were plotted against by Korean undercover agents.
While they were injured in the line of duty, they were killed by the sticks who followed them. No wonder we couldn't figure out that the wounds on their bodies were not caused by the same weapon.
During this interrogation, someone knew the inside story, and the fake Li Jiyong was just using you to gain connections."
Jiang Cha's eyes were red. If Jiang's father and mother were still here, the original owner would definitely be very happy. All the suffering they suffered later was because of those Koreans. Even their lives were killed by them.
If these people were not still useful, I would have rushed in and killed them right now to avenge the original owner's family of three.
