Chapter 46 The Mysterious Note



Maps, signal jammers, and sea storms.

Any one of them alone would be a big deal, let alone when combined together.

Xu Zhixia hurried to Political Commissar Zhou's office and told him all the news he had just heard.

After hearing this, Political Commissar Zhou's face suddenly darkened.

"Are you sure the news is correct?" he asked in a low voice.

Xu Zhixia nodded heavily, a hint of worry in his eyes.

A feeling of helplessness surged into her heart, and she felt helpless.

Political Commissar Zhou seemed to see through it, and he comforted him, "Don't worry about this matter, let the troops handle it."

"You've worked hard these past two days. Go back and have a good rest."

After a pause, he added: "If possible, don't go to school for the next two days. Don't tell anyone about this, including Zhou An.

Xu Zhixia nodded and agreed.

Even if Political Commissar Zhou didn't tell her, she wouldn't tell anyone.

Xu Zhixia returned home worriedly and remained quiet for a few days.

Zhou An seemed to know that this was confidential and considerately did not ask.

But at the same time, she was unable to get any news about the two foreigners through Zhou An.

Fortunately, not long after, Zhou An told her that she could go back to school to attend classes.

Xu Zhixia understood that the matter of the two foreigners should be resolved.

She breathed a sigh of relief without leaving any trace and put the matter behind her.

She thought she would never encounter this matter again, but unexpectedly, after school, she heard two parents talking about it.

"Have you heard? Two foreign spies were caught on our island a few days ago!"

"When did it happen? How do you know?" another woman asked curiously.

"I also heard it from others. I think it was translated by people on our island."

When the woman heard this, she curled her lips in disbelief: "Where can we find such a talent in our place..."

Xu Zhixia could no longer hear what was said afterwards. Her mind went blank. How did this matter get out?

Without caring about anything else, she hurried towards the troops.

Because Xu Zhixia had been here last time, the guarding soldiers had an impression of her.

After asking her to register her information, she was let in.

Xu Zhixia walked to Political Commissar Zhou's office with ease and knocked on the door.

Almost the next second, a voice came from inside asking someone to come in.

She took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

Political Commissar Zhou heard the sound of the door opening, looked over, and was not surprised to see Xu Zhixia.

He made a gesture of invitation, indicating Xu Zhixia to sit down.

Xu Zhixia hesitated for a moment and sat down opposite him.

Before anyone could speak, Political Commissar Zhou took the initiative to say, "I know the news circulating outside has nothing to do with you."

"Because I had it leaked."

Xu Zhixia was stunned. She didn't expect this to be the answer.

Political Commissar Zhou explained slowly, "Using the information you gave us last time, we conducted a comprehensive search and found their hand-drawn maps and signal jammers."

"However, because the place where these two items were hidden is somewhat special, we suspect they have accomplices on the island."

Having said that, Xu Zhixia understood.

Following Political Commissar Zhou's words, he continued, "So he deliberately leaked the news to see if anyone else was acting strangely."

Political Commissar Zhou's eyes flashed with admiration: "That's the truth."

"Comrade Xu, don't worry. It won't be long before this matter is completely over."

After hearing these reassuring words, Xu Zhixia finally felt relieved.

She was worried that Political Commissar Zhou would think she was the one who leaked the information.

Since Political Commissar Zhou has other arrangements, she just needs to cooperate.

But unexpectedly, another incident occurred the next day.

On the way to school with Haohao, Xu Zhixia felt that everyone was looking at her strangely.

It was like going back to... when I first found out that she was the daughter of a capitalist.

She felt confused in her heart, but did not show it on the surface and remained calm.

Just as I was about to reach school, I ran into Zhuzi's mother.

When she saw Xu Zhixia, she said sarcastically, "Hey, isn't this Teacher Xu?"

"I didn't expect you to be so versatile. You're even a translator now."

Xu Zhixia was filled with anxiety. How did Zhuzi's mother know about this? Could it be that Political Commissar Zhou had leaked it?

As soon as this idea appeared in her mind, she dismissed it. Political Commissar Zhou was not that kind of person.

If other people knew foreign languages, there would be some risks at most.

But she was originally the eldest daughter of a capitalist family, and she was afraid that someone would make a fuss about this.

A dark light flashed in her eyes, and she stood there looking at Zhuzi's mother coldly.

When Zhuzi's mother met Xu Zhixia's gaze, she felt a little scared and staggered back two steps.

Realizing her actions, her face turned even redder, but out of embarrassment.

The new hatred and old grudges made her laugh out of anger.

"If you ask me, the higher-ups should re-investigate your identity. We are honest people, and we don't know foreign languages."

"Isn't this the little foreign devil?"

The others noticed the commotion here and gathered around, with all kinds of expressions on their faces.

Doubt, embarrassment, surprise, but more of worry.

Zhuzi's mother spoke even more excitedly: "Who knows what a person like you will teach our children."

"If you have any self-awareness, I'd say you should get off our island right away!"

She was spitting all over the place and speaking with confidence.

Seeing that Xu Zhixia didn't refute, he couldn't help but feel complacent.

I don’t know who it was, but I slipped a note to her house last night.

It is said that after the two foreigners were caught this time, Xu Zhixia was asked to act as an interpreter.

After hearing the news, she was delighted.

She was still brooding over the last time Xu Zhixia slapped her in the face, but now Xu Zhixia was finally in her hands.

So he waited at the school gate early in the morning, waiting for Xu Zhixia to come.

Xu Zhixia saw that Zhuzi's mother came prepared, and her face became even colder.

She said calmly, "You said I can speak foreign languages. Do you have any evidence?"

This calm and composed look made everyone doubt the authenticity of the matter.

After all, Zhuzi's mother has learned from previous experiences, so it is not impossible for her to lie this time.

Zhuzi's mother was stunned. She didn't expect her to be so calm.

Where does she have any evidence? She can't just take out that note, right?

Seeing her hesitant and unable to speak, Xu Zhixia's eyes flashed with understanding.

It seems that she had also heard about this matter, but didn't know the hidden truth behind it.

Xu Zhixia simply ignored it and strode forward.

But I was wondering who could have leaked this information.

The person who knew this information must be someone in the army, and must have some grudge against her.

She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

It was time for class, so she stopped thinking about it.

But when school was about to end, someone she didn't expect showed up.
