Song Shutian, suppressing a laugh, said, "You silly girl, why did you have to tell the truth? But I also think that you haven't gotten any advantage at all as Uncle Zhao's niece."
Uncle Zhao, it's not that I'm taking Jiang Qiao's side, but honestly, at this time, there aren't many people who would treat you like Jiang Qiao, including your relatives and friends.
So, from now on, you'd better treat Jiang Qiao well, otherwise I won't allow it."
Zhao Anbang punched Song Shutian, "You brat, you're siding with outsiders. Don't worry, I like Jiang Qiao too."
Song Shutian sighed, "Let's get back to the main topic. Jiang Qiao, when we go to settle scores, we need a strategy and a division of labor. We can't just settle scores and be done with it. We need to plan this carefully..."
After listening to Song Shutian's arrangements, Jiang Qiao nodded. "Then you guys really need to keep a close eye on this matter. As the vanguard, I'm being exposed right under the enemy's nose."
Before he could finish speaking, Cao Mingyuan came in with several sheets of paper in his hand.
"Chief, we've obtained the confessions, but only a few are useful."
Song Shutian took a few sheets of paper and looked at them. Jiang Qiao immediately asked, "What exactly did Feng Lan say? Who told her to take Uncle Zhao out? And who was secretly cooperating with her?"
Cao Mingyuan sighed and shook his head. "She said that people like Lao Zhao should be criticized and educated by the revolutionary masses. Such bad elements should never be tolerated. People have lost their lives because of this. Why is Lao Zhao still alive and well?"
Jiang Qiao snorted, "What, was the dead person a relative of theirs?"
Cao Mingyuan shook his head. "We're not even remotely related, what kind of relatives are we?"
However, this girl is quite eloquent. She always has a set of arguments, and if we didn't know who she was beforehand, we really wouldn't be able to interrogate her.
"Oh, right, here are the documents you requested. Take a look."
While Jiang Qiao was looking at the documents, Song Shutian looked up and asked, "As for the others, didn't Feng Lan let anything slip?"
Cao Mingyuan shook his head. "I overheard from next door. This woman is very intelligent, and she has certain skills in answering our questions, so we haven't found any valuable information yet."
Song Shutian tapped his fingers on the table, looking thoughtfully at Zhao Anbang.
"Uncle Zhao, what do you think?"
Zhao Anbang pondered for a moment, then said, "Keep a close eye on Feng Lan's adoptive father."
"You mean to say that there's something wrong with Feng Lan's adoptive father?"
Zhao Anbang nodded. "This man is really unremarkable, giving off a very unremarkable vibe, but it is precisely this kind of person that we cannot ignore."
Feng Lan's antics weren't just her own; her brothers were her strong support. The fact that all the children were like this makes one wonder.
After reviewing the documents, Jiang Qiao looked up at the two people and said, "I need to meet with these people. There are no problems with the documents."
Zhao Anbang nodded. "I think it's a good idea. This is a mixed investigation team, and you may not know the details about some of the people involved."
Song Shutian nodded. "Okay, I'll go first and you follow. When the time comes, you can do whatever you want. If there's something wrong with the people here, based on your intuition, I think we should make a preliminary judgment."
Jiang Qiao frowned and pursed her lips. "You go first. I'll go and meet with Feng Lan. I have a feeling that this woman is holding back something."
Song Shutian stood up. "Old Cao, have someone keep a close eye on Feng Lan's stepfather. If you find anything wrong, report it immediately."
Zhao Anbang patted Song Shutian on the shoulder and said, "Be careful not to let anyone find fault with you."
Song Shutian nodded. "Someone will bring you food in a little while. You can stay in this room. There are guards outside. Just call out if you need anything."
“Go ahead, I’m fine. If the enemy really wanted me dead, they would have done it already. Now, it’s probably too late. Once I’m dead, the truth will be clear without any investigation. Don’t forget, with Jiang Qiao around, the enemy will have to be wary of him.”
Jiang Qiao couldn't help but laugh, "So, I have this kind of intimidating effect?"
Zhao Anbang patted Jiang Qiao on the shoulder and said, "Young comrade, you must not underestimate your power. When the enemy encounters you, I cannot say they will be terrified, but they will definitely be very cautious. Once you catch them making a mistake, how can things be good?"
They know perfectly well how your accident happened.
Jiang Qiao clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Thank you for the compliment, comrade. I'll be going now."
Jiang Qiao went out to find out where Feng Lan was being held, and then went directly to meet this woman.
However, when she arrived at the door, she didn't go in directly, but stood outside the window and looked inside.
Feng Lan sat in the chair with her head down, as if she was thinking about something.
From an outsider's perspective, Feng Lan is undoubtedly a capable woman. The fact that she can lead so many male comrades to follow her orders shows that she is quite shrewd.
Moreover, this person is clearly ambitious. She looks quite old, yet she hasn't even thought about finding a partner or getting married. It's clear that Feng Lan has some ambitions in mind.
However, it's unclear whether this person was influenced by someone or was simply born this way.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Qiao didn't go in. Instead, she turned around and went to another place. Inside that room were Feng Lan's men.
When Jiang Qiao entered the room, the people who were sitting immediately stood up. They all looked at him with complicated expressions, and even Jiang Qiao himself couldn't help but chuckle at their conflicted looks.
"What, does seeing me make you all so unhappy? Come on, everyone, stop standing there. There's a saying in my hometown: 'Standing guests are hard to please.' So, are you welcoming me or planning to gang up on me?"
"It can't be that bad. We're not enemies, we're not adversaries. Relax, let's have a good talk."
One of the young men gave a wry smile, then asked curiously, "Are you really Jiang Qiao, the hero Jiang Qiao?"
Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded, "It's the real deal. Actually, I'm embarrassed by the title you use. I wouldn't call myself a hero; I've just done a few meaningful things."
The title of "hero" is one I feel unworthy of. Compared to those predecessors, I am far from sufficient and dare not compare myself to them.
Jiang Qiao's change in attitude made the young people feel somewhat uncomfortable.
One of the bolder ones stammered, "Comrade Jiang Qiao, how did you train your skills? Feng Lan barely managed to exchange a few moves with you!"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Everyone, please sit down. Let's chat slowly. Speaking of my skills, it's because my family was poor and no one could protect us. My uncle taught me, and as I practiced, it became second nature. When I met someone who knew the skills, they would give me a pointer or two. Over time, it became what it is today."
To say they're amazing wouldn't be accurate. As the saying goes, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Truly talented people don't usually show their skills.
Let's not talk about me anymore. There will be plenty of opportunities to find out later. You all know who I am, but I don't know anything about you.
"I can't possibly meet you all next time and still not know who you are, so please introduce yourselves, okay?"
