Chapter 221: Strange



"Hey, Angel!"

As soon as James saw Mu Huaixi come in, his eyes lit up and he waved at her with a smile.

Mu Huaixi paused and turned to the other side as if nothing had happened, while Xiao He behind him walked towards James with tools in his hand and a forced smile on his face.

"Why is it you here? I want an angel to check my body!" James yelled. He was fed up with these rude men. He needed the comfort of an angel.

"Angel, angel, I really want to smack shit in your face!" Xiao He rolled his eyes, not understanding how such a person could become a soldier.

Being cowardly, afraid of death, lustful, and greedy for pleasure is a disgrace to soldiers!

"Angel, angel! You can't just stand by and watch me die!" James has been like this since he knew that Mu Huaixi saved him, but Mu Huaixi usually ignores him. When he has to deal with him, he will first take out the golden needle to scare him, and then take action after he becomes obedient.

She complained to Ying Mingcheng privately that she always felt that James was not as stupid as he appeared to be, and that he might be hiding some evil intentions in his heart.

"You're right. Don't believe him. Whenever a grown man chooses to ask women and children for help, it's a sign of weakness and he has ulterior motives." Ying Mingcheng was also unhappy with James's behavior, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he could only ask Xiaoxi to be careful.

Mu Huaixi didn't understand his hidden jealousy and nodded solemnly, "Then ask them to investigate this person again and make sure he doesn't corrupt others!"

"Don't worry..." Ying Mingcheng wanted to say, but then he thought that there were more than just brothers from the Fourth Battalion in the camp, so he solemnly agreed, "Don't worry, I will ask Lao Huo to pay more attention."

It would be hard to tell if it wasn't mentioned. Huo Zhiwu only found out after checking that James actually had some hidden thoughts in private.

He actually gave a lighter to the young soldier who delivered the meal!

"Bastard! Bastard! Short-sighted bastard!" Captain Huang was so angry that he kicked the tree stump. The young soldier who made a fool of himself was under his command, so he naturally felt ashamed.

Huo Zhiwu patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. Wasn't it confiscated?"

"Confiscated?! He is afraid because he doesn't know what it is! If he is really sober, he should have reported the matter earlier! He has been hiding it, isn't it because he has some ulterior motives?!" Captain Huang widened his eyes, cursing in his heart a thousand times, and was so angry that air was coming out of his nostrils.

Huo Zhiwu stopped trying to persuade them. Capitalist corruption always starts from the smallest corners, and it is indeed difficult to prevent. "I'll give them some more advice when I'm on duty tonight."

"Knock! Knock hard! These bastards deserve a good beating," Captain Huang gritted his teeth, "and that guy's surveillance shift needs to be changed too!"

Ying Mingcheng frowned, "How about I take James and go first?"

They had won a great victory in the valley and were now leading James and the spoils back. Because they were carrying prisoners and weapons, their speed was much slower than when they came.

Although the front line was not far away, Ying Mingcheng felt uneasy.

"I think - James might be planning something," Ying Mingcheng frowned. James gave him a lighter, but the only thing he asked about was their speed of movement. This revealed something unusual.

Huo Zhiwu had been with him for a long time and immediately understood what he was trying to say. "Are you saying that James has accomplices? Is he waiting for someone to rescue him?"

"Save people?!" Captain Huang glared, "Let them come! If a pair comes, a pair will be killed. If a battalion comes, a battalion will be captured!"

"There shouldn't be people from the first battalion, I'm afraid there will be a sharp knife squad." Ying Mingcheng has fought with the people over there. They are tall and strong, well-equipped, and have strong hands and feet.

Captain Huang was eager to try it out and licked his lips. "Fuck, now that you say that, I really want to fight them!"

Huo Zhiwu asked, "You think someone will come to rescue you? Why do you want to take James with you? Isn't that exposing yourself to danger?"

After all, we are a large army now. Just like what Captain Huang said, even if the best soldiers come, they can be crushed to death with united efforts!

Ying Mingcheng shook his head. "Which do you think is easier to find when there's a large army, or when there's a rapid march?"

"What do you mean?" Huo Zhiwu was stunned by his question.

Ying Mingcheng narrowed his eyes, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. "If they can only find the main force, then the rapid march will be safer. If they can find the location of the rapid march, that is, James, then the problem will be serious."

Captain Huang almost pounced on him, "Fuck you, you suspect that idiot has a way to contact the outside world, but—"

But everything on his body was taken away, even his teeth and anus were checked, and there was indeed nothing left. As for the lighter, he had hidden it in his hair, and no one knew how he had managed to avoid being discovered.

"Search again! I'll take people to search again!" Captain Huang felt embarrassed again. After all, it was his people who did the body search. If it was just a careless mistake, it would be a small matter. But if he also accepted bribes, then the matter would be serious!

Captain Huang left in a hurry, leaving only Ying Mingcheng and Huo Zhiwu.

"What are you thinking about? What did you discover?" Huo Zhiwu knew that Ying Mingcheng's current suspicion was mostly an intuition, and for them, the vanguards who had gone through fire and water, intuition was actually the most sincere reaction.

Ying Mingcheng shook his head. "I won't tell you for now, so as not to interfere with your judgment."

Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. The three of them are the leaders of this team and the decision makers who can look at problems from different perspectives. The mistakes made by one person can be made up for by the collision of views among the three.

"Let's meet again in the evening," Ying Mingcheng left a message and went to find Mu Huaixi.

Mu Huaixi had just treated a young soldier with a swollen tooth. When he heard Ying Mingcheng's question, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you suspect James is hiding something?"

"Hmm. It might be under the skin." Ying Mingcheng had a hunch. Even if Old Huang and his men went to investigate again, they wouldn't find anything. If there really was something hidden, it could only be inside the body. "Can you see any signs of surgery?"

"Okay," Mu Huaixi nodded. Seeing that he looked a little hesitant, she added, "It's okay without contact."

"But it would be best if we could make him faint," she added. Given her relationship with James, if she concentrated on sensing him, he might sense it and start saying something crazy and annoying her again.

In fact, Mu Huaixi could only understand "e" for coming and "go" for going, but it did not prevent her from sensing what James wanted to say from his exaggerated expression.

"They should be resistant to anesthetics, hallucinogens and the like, but I'm afraid it won't work." What Ying Mingcheng didn't say was that Lao Huang had previously tried to trick James into talking, so he fed him mushrooms. The man's eyes rolled around after eating them, and he didn't say a word he should have said. Moreover, he was awake the entire time and didn't lose consciousness.

Like them, James should have been trained to resist psychotropic drugs.

Mu Huaixi thought for a moment and said, "I'll examine him tomorrow. No anesthesia is needed, just acupuncture will do. I guarantee he won't feel anything when he wakes up."

Anesthetics may still leave some residue, but it is different with golden needles. Her current technique will not even leave needle holes. James will only feel like he has had a good sleep.
