Jiang Qiao's words left Song Shutian speechless with frustration. He could only sigh, "Fine, I'll let them off today, but next time I definitely won't let them escape so easily. Damn it, who are the people behind Guo Zhigang? Even his accomplices are in groups."
Jiang Qiao shrugged. "You'll have to interrogate them to find out. Oh dear, I need a drink of water. I'm so nervous, my mouth is dry."
After taking a sip of water, Jiang Qiao exclaimed in surprise, "Why can't I hear the engine? They didn't leave?"
Song Shutian frowned, looking puzzled, and said, "Really? This thing can't scare them away?"
Jiang Qiao glanced down and, seeing no one, said, "Let's wait and see. Have you noticed that the fog is gradually dissipating?"
They could both see the silhouettes of boats on the shore. Although they couldn't see what the other was doing, they couldn't hear the sound of engines, so it was clear they weren't planning to leave yet.
"What do they mean? Is the boat damaged, or are they planning to come again?"
Jiang Qiao sighed, "I wish their ship would break down, as long as they don't come aboard, but look—"
Hope is beautiful, but reality is cruel. Those shameless people have come back again. I saw two people leading three tied-up people this way.
Song Shutian angrily cursed, "You beast—"
Jiang Qiao carefully examined the situation and then calmly said, "Look closely, I think there's something fishy about this. Look at that man, he walks differently from the other two."
Although all three were wearing life jackets, Jiang Qiao observed carefully and noticed that one person's movements were slightly different from the other two.
After Jiang Qiao's reminder, Song Shutian observed further and noticed the difference.
"What are these bastards trying to do?"
Jiang Qiao snorted coldly, "Because they discovered that their unconscious accomplice might have been drugged, they suspected there might be someone up here. What should we do? The man and woman are clearly passengers who fell into the water."
Do you have any more medicine?
Jiang Qiao nodded. "But look at those two people, they're wearing masks, so the medicine won't work on them."
"First, we'll apply the medicine, and then we'll figure out how to deal with those two."
Jiang Qiao didn't rush to scatter the medicine. Instead, she waited until the people slowly approached before scattering the medicine packet.
Song Shutian's gun also fired, but the two men seemed to be on guard. As soon as the gun fired, they rolled to the side and hid.
Jiang Qiao shook her head in disapproval. Song Shutian was too hasty, but she couldn't say that.
"You stay here and keep watch, I'll go over there—"
He got up and walked around to the side, heading straight for where the two people were hiding.
Song Shutian also regretted it. He thought his marksmanship was quite accurate, but he didn't expect to miss out today.
Actually, you can't blame Song Shutian. Those two people were specially trained, so it's not surprising that they have some skills. Otherwise, how could someone with no skills be sent here?
When Jiang Qiao infiltrated their territory, those two were still cursing.
"Damn it, I knew there was something strange about this island. Maybe our people are in there."
Another person, while observing the situation above, asked, "What should we do then? We don't know their background, but they know our situation. Should we just charge in?"
The man snorted coldly, took out something from behind him, and said, "I'll blow them up—"
Unfortunately, before he could even pull the pin on his grenade, Jiang Qiao's throwing knife had already come flying, piercing the man's wrist. Before he could even react, the object in his hand rolled to the ground, and he fell forward.
His companions were dumbfounded. What was going on? This person had fallen down in the blink of an eye? Where did that throwing knife come from?
However, this person reacted quickly, raising his gun and firing in Jiang Qiao's direction. Unfortunately, he was facing Jiang Qiao, and by the time the first throwing knife was thrown, she had already changed positions.
When the second throwing knife flew, it hit the man's hand directly. The man peeked out in pain, and Song Shutian on the mountain wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass. He shot the man in the shoulder, and Jiang Qiao also pounced over, nimbly pinning him down.
Song Shutian also ran over to help tie the person up securely.
As for the three people who had been drugged, Song Shutian tied them up again. No matter what happened, just to be on the safe side, he couldn't trust anyone for the time being.
"Tell me, is there anyone left on the ship?"
The man shook his head. "Our boat is damaged. We're not bad people. We found this gun on those guys."
Jiang Qiao didn't believe their nonsense. She sent Song Shutian to check the boat, and they really didn't find anyone else. The boat was also not working properly.
Now that they had caught the man, Jiang Qiao and the others no longer needed to worry about anything else. They called the old man and the others back. When Guo Zhigang saw these people, his face immediately turned ugly. He had placed all his hopes on these people, but he didn't expect that these idiots couldn't even handle two people.
Seeing Guo Zhigang's dejected expression, Song Shutian was in a good mood. "Well, Guo Zhigang, think carefully about how to explain yourself."
To prevent the group from colluding, Song Shutian gagged each of them. As for the man and woman, he interrogated them separately. Although he gave them food and drink, he did not untie them.
"Comrades, you will have to bear with this for now. Once our people arrive, the truth will be revealed."
Lin Daidi was tasked with keeping a close eye on the two of them. Jiang Qiao and Song Zhigang discussed it and decided to send out a distress signal as soon as possible. Since the enemy had been captured, they no longer needed to worry about attracting their attention.
Grandpa Qiao originally wanted to come out and help, but Song Shutian coaxed him back. "I said, Grandpa, you can't come out. Those two are still counting on you and Lao Zhong to keep an eye on them. If you take good care of them, you'll be doing us a huge favor. Jiang Qiao and I are perfectly fine."
The two of them gathered three piles of firewood on the island. After they started burning, Jiang Qiao added some wet firewood on top, and thick smoke quickly rose up, which could be seen by anyone who wasn't blind.
Jiang Qiao glanced at the distant sea. The sky and sea were now a clear blue, and the thick fog from before was nowhere to be seen.
"Alright, let it keep burning. Let's go back to the cave and have some hot water. I'm almost frozen. In this freezing weather, I'm tired of living and have come here to cause trouble."
Song Shutian looked Jiang Qiao up and down with a searching look in his eyes. If it weren't for this girl's help, those two wouldn't have been dealt with so easily.
Jiang Qiao couldn't possibly miss Song Shutian's gaze, and she teased, "Brother Song, don't look at me like that. I'm just a young girl, I can't stand your hot gaze. I'm still a budding flower of the motherland."
Song Shutian felt embarrassed by Jiang Qiao's words. After all, he was a grown man, and he was amused by a child.
