Chapter 14: A Bystander in the World of Espionage during the Republic of China Era



Aunt Fang patted her apprentice on the shoulder, and the apprentice said, "Sun Xiaoyu."

Because he had taken medicine beforehand, his voice was hoarse. Unexpectedly, the officer was still worried and asked again, "Why don't you wait until the child is better before going back?"

Jiang Yue gave a bitter smile: "Sir, medical treatment in Shanghai is too expensive." Jiang Yue's face showed a hint of difficulty: "Moreover, ordinary people like us can't even buy cold medicine now. We can only go back to our hometown and think of a solution."
