"This is my police officer's ID. If you're worried, you can go to the town's police station to find me. Now, please don't panic. The police and the military have sent people to protect Comrade Su Xingran and Dr. Huang."
"Comrade Su Xingran is a good comrade, and you, as her parents, should have faith in her. As for matters concerning the mission, I cannot disclose them to you at this time. Once everything is settled, you will naturally understand the situation."
"Comrade Xie, will our Xingran be in danger?" Su's mother was quite direct. She understood what Comrade Xie was saying, but what she cared about was whether her Ranran would be in danger.
"Comrade Zeng, I cannot guarantee that. All missions are dangerous; some may not be, and some may be. We all hope that Comrade Su Xingran and Dr. Huang will return safely."
Hearing this, Su's parents said nothing more. Ever since Su Xingran disappeared that day and returned with those words of advice, they had a feeling that something must have happened to Ranran and Doctor Huang.
"Comrade Xie Yun, thank you so much for making the trip to tell us. We understand. Our child has her own things to do, and as her parents, all we can do is worry and hope for her and her master's safe return." Father Su understood that his daughter had her own things to do, and they, as her parents, couldn't hold her back.
When Ding Cuihua woke up in the morning, she didn't see Zhang Yizhu and assumed he had gone out. She didn't see him again until noon when she returned from work, and she started to get worried.
Just as she was about to run out to look for him, the village chief came to her house. "Ding Cuihua, your Zhang Yizhu has something to do in town. He asked me to tell you so you don't have to look for him everywhere."
Hearing what the village chief said, Ding Cuihua felt relieved. She hadn't thought the village chief would lie to her; she really believed Zhang Yizhu had gone to town.
Gu Moting and the others, who were guarding deep in the mountains, were also a little anxious. Mainly, they didn't know the situation inside, how the master and disciple were doing, or if they had been harmed.
"Mo Ting, what do you think the situation is like inside? The enemy hasn't come out since they went in, and we outside don't know what the situation is like inside." Huang Tai'an was a little anxious, mainly because those enemies from the Sakura Kingdom were too brutal.
"We can only wait. Even if we rush in, it won't help. We can enter through the grass gate, but we definitely can't get inside. In the end, we'll only endanger Xingran and my uncle. We can only wait and see." Gu Moting was also worried, but he knew that rushing wouldn't help. They needed the right opportunity.
Night fell quickly, and Dr. Huang was completely drained of energy. His lips were dry, white, and cracked, and his throat began to hurt.
Su Xingran is now only slightly better than Dr. Huang, but her lips are still dry and pale, and her spirits are much lower than in the morning.
Just then, the door to the room suddenly opened, and Sato walked in carrying a plate of food and a kettle. He placed the food and drink on the table.
"Dr. Huang, how have you thought it through? Have you made up your mind? Have you made a decision?" Sato asked Dr. Huang, sitting on the stool and fiddling with the kettle.
Doctor Huang remained silent, his head bowed. He was now listless and too weak to speak to this treacherous villain from the land of cherry blossoms.
"Oh? So it seems that Doctor Huang is unwilling to pledge allegiance to the Emperor of our Sakura Kingdom?" After saying this, Sato suddenly stood up and roared, "Baka yarou!"
