Chapter 120
Wen Yanxi didn't expect that Chen Zhaoyue's intuition was so sharp that she could actually see that Wen Qing stepping on the snake's nest was not an accident.
It was the same thing last time. She went up the mountain to pick herbs and discovered the traces of enemy spies.
Chen Zhaoyue has made many contributions, and Wen Yanxi is really proud of her, but at the same time, Wen Yanxi is afraid that she will be in danger because of her keen insight.
Seeing him looking at her silently, Shen Zhaoyue blinked her big eyes innocently: "Uncle, what's wrong? Why don't you speak?"
Wen Yanxi put down his chopsticks, looked at her seriously, and said, "The situation you described was already known to our uncle and us long before Wen Qing was out of danger, and we've already sent people to investigate."
Chen Zhaoyue took a mouthful of rice, his cheeks puffed out like a chubby little hamster, "How's the investigation going?"
Wen Yanxi picked up the rice grains that accidentally stuck to the corners of her mouth and gave her a handful of scrambled eggs with green peppers. "The investigation is extensive, and the enemy is deeply hidden. It won't be easy to find them. We've already targeted the village closest to the incident for a key investigation."
Wen Yanxi paused, then continued, "I'll lead the team on a mission in two days."
Chen Zhaoyue originally wanted to ask him who he was going on the mission with, whether it was Jia Zheng and Sun Xingxing whom she had met last time, but then she changed her mind and thought that every mission Wen Yanxi went on involved confidential information, so she decided not to ask.
What if someone with ulterior motives finds out who Wen Yanxi is on a mission with and does something that endangers their lives?
Chen Zhaoyue finished the food in the bowl and placed the bowl and chopsticks neatly on the table. He deliberately lowered his voice and spoke to Wen Yanxi: "So, is the person you are looking for this time the same group as the enemy spy we captured last time?"
Wen Yanxi adhered to the confidentiality agreement and only told Chen Zhaoyue what he could. "We currently speculate that it's a group, but we need to catch them to confirm it. Zhang Qing is too tight-lipped, so we can't get any useful information out of him."
Chen Zhaoyue smiled slyly and asked Wen Yanxi tentatively: "Do you want me to help you interrogate Zhang Qing and the others?"
Chen Zhaoyue was confident that she could ask some questions that Wen Yanxi and the others could not ask. Of course, Chen Zhaoyue was confident in her acupuncture and medicinal incense.
Chen Zhaoyue said as she picked up a chopstick as a silver needle and pointed at Wen Yanxi's head: "Do you still remember the man on the train?"
Wen Yanxi certainly remembered that Chen Zhaoyue's performance at that time left a deep impression on him and he would never forget it for the rest of his life.
The delicate and charming little girl, seemingly harmless and vulnerable, was able to calmly defend herself even after being framed. Her acupuncture skills were particularly impressive; even the most cunning enemy would be silenced with just one needle.
If it weren't for the fact that it is forbidden to promote superstitions about ghosts and gods, Wen Yanxi would have suspected that she knew some kind of sorcery.
Wen Yanxi felt that her suggestion was feasible. As long as they could pry out useful information from Zhang Qing, they could narrow the scope and lock on the suspicious object as quickly as possible, truly catching the enemy hiding in the dark off guard.
But Wen Yanxi didn't agree to Chen Zhaoyue's request right away. He was only concerned about her safety. "I can apply to the higher-ups to have you assist in the interrogation of Zhang Qing and Shadan, but you must ensure that your life is not threatened in any way."
Wen Yanxi's gaze unconsciously fell on Shen Zhaoyue's fair neck. The wound scratched by Zhang Qing last time had healed, and the light pink scar had also faded a lot. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't tell that Shen Zhaoyue had been injured.
But Wen Yanxi clearly remembered where Chen Zhaoyue was injured, and the color of the blood that flowed from her was glaring red.
Wen Yanxi recalled the last time Chen Zhaoyue was injured right under his nose, and the air pressure around him dropped several degrees.
Sensing his change in mood, Chen Zhaoyue's soft little hand covered his hand, which was a few shades darker than hers, and gently pinched his bony fingers.
Chen Zhaoyue's voice was very gentle, and with a magical power, it soothed Wen Yanxi's surging anger: "Uncle, I believe you can protect me and prevent me from getting hurt. You also have to believe in me. I have the ability to protect myself when faced with an emergency."
Wen Yanxi held her hand in his backhand. It was soft and cool, and it felt small in his palm.
Chen Zhaoyue always has a faint herbal fragrance on her body, which can make Wen Yanxi fall in love with her, but also clear his confused mind.
Wen Yanxi squeezed her hand, his deep voice sounding gentle, even he himself didn't notice it: "I will arrange the suggestions you mentioned, you wait for my news."
The next morning, Shen Zhaoyue arrived at the health center and immediately found Gao Wen and told her that she wanted to take a leave of absence.
Gao Wen didn’t ask much, just thinking that Shen Zhaoyue was too tired from taking care of the injured Wen Qing during this period, so she approved Shen Zhaoyue for a day off.
After Chen Zhaoyue came out of the health center, he walked towards the office building on the other side, went upstairs and went straight to the commander's office.
When he saw Wen Qimin, Chen Zhaoyue explained his purpose.
Wen Qimin knew that Chen Zhaoyue had helped Wen Yanxi when he captured an enemy spy on the train last time, but he didn't expect that she had such special skills that she could even pry open the enemy spy's mouth.
You have to know that enemy spies are specially trained to withstand intense interrogation and will not easily reveal any information about their accomplices, even if it means death. After all, from the moment they are captured, their death is doomed.
Since they were about to die anyway, they might as well buy their accomplices some extra time to live. What if their accomplices finally succeeded? Then the deaths of those who were caught wouldn't be in vain.
Wen Qimin had almost no hesitation and immediately agreed to let Chen Zhaoyue help pry open Zhang Qing's mouth.
Chen Zhaoyue, carrying a small army green satchel, followed Wen Qimin to the small dark room where the enemy spies were held.
Zhang Qing and Shadan have been locked up here for a while and are not in a very good mood.
Originally, after the last interrogation, Wen Qimin planned to find a time to deal with them, but Wen Qing suddenly got into trouble a few days ago, so he put the execution of the two of them on hold.
Wen Qimin thought, it was a good thing that he didn't have time to kill these two bastards. They were kept alive until today, which was still of some use.
Wen Qimin followed Shen Zhaoyue into the small dark room, and saw Shen Zhaoyue take out an incense burner and a sewing kit from his shoulder bag.
There wasn't even a bench in the small dark room, let alone a table. Chen Zhaoyue didn't expect the environment for keeping the enemy spies away would be very good. She calmly placed the incense burner on the ground, took out a match, lit a small piece of spice and put it into the incense burner.
Then Shen Zhaoyue stood in front of the vent to feel the direction of the air flow, and placed the incense burner in a suitable position to ensure that all the incense in the incense burner could be absorbed by Zhang Qing without any waste.
