"Hey, you want to hurt each other, huh? You're so old, how dare you talk to me like that?" Kong Hui said, pointing at Han Qiushi.
"Then you need to reflect on yourself. I'm older than you and I can find a partner, but you can't. You're really useless!" Han Qiushi retorted mercilessly.
"Sister-in-law, how could you fall for someone like him?"
"Listen to me, there are plenty of men in the world, I'll introduce you to someone better." Unable to win the argument, Kong Hui changed the subject.
"You bastard, is this how you act as a brother?" Han Qiushi said.
Joking aside, we have serious business to discuss now.
This was no time for jokes. The two quickly and methodically assigned tasks: those who needed to handle people did so, and those who needed to handle things did so.
Everything in the cave was searched, and important documents were in the hands of Han Qiushi and Kong Hui.
Seeing that they had finished their business, Lin Xiaoxiao prepared to go down the mountain and followed them for a while.
When it was time to part ways, everyone saluted Lin Xiaoxiao.
Kong Hui and Lin Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, come over for dinner sometime."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Han Qiushi upon hearing this, and then nodded: "Okay."
Han Qiushi first had Kong Hui escort the people away, while he sent Lin Xiaoxiao back first. "I estimate I won't be able to come back until tomorrow after this is all settled."
"Okay, you go ahead with your work." Lin Xiaoxiao knew this matter was important, so how could she possibly keep her there?
Han Qiushi smiled at her, his eyes fixed on Lin Xiaoxiao, and whispered in her ear, "I will miss you."
Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment when she heard this. By the time she came to her senses, Han Qiushi had already walked quite a distance away. She couldn't help but scoff. This man's restraint and elegance were indeed just an act before.
When Lin Xiaoxiao got home, she had just finished eating in her spatial dimension when Captain Wang couldn't help but rush over and ask anxiously, "How is it? Have you found the person yet?"
"Found them, caught them, they've already been taken away."
Lin Xiaoxiao poured Captain Wang a glass of water. "Uncle, it was they who pushed Xiaohu."
"I think they're probably human traffickers. People from outside should be more careful in the future."
"Otherwise, something irreparable will happen."
After these two incidents, Lin Xiaoxiao was certain that there were a large number of enemy agents in my country, even more than a large number, with some even infiltrating the military. She estimated that there were probably even more outside the country.
It's possible that various important units are being monitored, so be extra careful when contacting people, whether in the village or outside.
Captain Wang was a smart man. Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao's serious expression and subtle hints, he knew that this matter was serious. He didn't mention it to anyone when he left, but just said that the person who caused the harm had been caught and that everyone should be wary of strangers.
That's the stranger who pushed the child down the cave.
Lin Xiaoxiao rested at home for a while before going to find Aunt Li. When she arrived at the yard, she saw them tidying up the vegetable garden. When they saw Lin Xiaoxiao coming over, they noticed her.
"Here it is. I've found the seeds you mentioned the other day. I've also gotten a little of each for you. Take them all back and use them."
"At this time, we can only plant some cabbage and radishes, which will be just in time to survive before the ground freezes."
"If you can't finish planting, wait until spring to plant more."
Lin Xiaoxiao generously accepted the seeds.
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Li. I'll go back and pack up now. If I have any questions later, I'll come and find you."
Aunt Li smiled and said, "Sure, just come find me if you need anything."
Lin Xiaoxiao has been busy with things these past two days, and the backyard has been sitting there unused, so she took advantage of her free time to fix it up.
It was mealtime again, but Han Qiushi hadn't returned yet. Lin Xiaoxiao didn't eat early; instead, she continued tending to the vegetable garden.
Tonight I made three dishes: spicy diced chicken, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and steamed egg custard. It was already dark and Han Qiushi still hadn't returned, so Lin Xiaoxiao ate first and left the rest of the food in the pot to keep warm.
After finishing her meal, Lin Xiaoxiao picked up a book and started reading. Around ten o'clock, Han Qiushi still hadn't returned, so she washed up and went to bed.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know what time she had slept, but she woke up at the slightest noise.
With people and events constantly on her mind, she got up, put on a coat, and went out: "You're back?"
"Did I wake you up?" Han Qiushi saw Lin Xiaoxiao still half asleep and wanted to hug her, but thinking of her dirty clothes, he could only say with concern, "You can sleep peacefully from now on, don't worry about me."
"Hmm, have you eaten?"
"We ate, we ate at the team's canteen."
After they captured the man, they began an intense interrogation. To save time, the soldiers under them even prepared a meal for him and Kong Hui. Eating was a minor matter.
The identities of the people we captured have been basically confirmed, but they are all very difficult to get to talk. We used a lot of methods to get them to talk. It wasn't so easy to get the spies in the base out of them.
Lin Xiaoxiao continued to ask him about that Gou Sheng.
Han Qiushi responded, "He can't be considered a spy; it's the spies who rented his house and lived there."
Gousheng's parents passed away a long time ago, and he relied on the help of the people in the brigade to survive. The work points for cutting pig feed didn't amount to much grain.
Many people in the brigade were also struggling to feed themselves, and the amount of help they received was limited. They could only exchange firewood for a bite to eat.
They usually live a life of irregular eating habits, sometimes hungry and sometimes full.
Summer is alright; you can go up the mountain to collect bird eggs, find wild fruits, and even go out to forage for food. But in winter, you have very little clothing, and you can get frostbite as soon as you go out, let alone go out to find food.
With his small frame, even if he looked for food, he wouldn't find much.
The female agent appeared on the third day of his hunger, gave him food, and said that he could live in one of the rooms if he cleaned it up.
Gou Sheng didn't think that far ahead; he quickly set up a room.
It was through this opportunity that the female spy settled down.
Gousheng had no idea what she did for a living, but he knew that this woman had food to eat as long as she lived at home.
The two then lived together in tacit understanding.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say. The country was extremely strict about this, and Gou Sheng wouldn't have a good ending, even though he didn't know who this person was or what he did at first.
But his assistance to the spies was genuine, and he will certainly be punished accordingly.
Fortunately, the children happened to witness it. The base's deployment will likely be leaked out soon.
"We will both be rewarded for this, but this matter is not over yet. In order to avoid putting others in danger, we have decided to keep this a secret."
"Okay, I'm fine with anything." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care about the reward, but she couldn't be careless about such an important matter. It would be nice if she could help out occasionally.
Who doesn't want their country to get better and better?
