Next, Jiang Qiao contacted Jian Ling. Upon seeing Jiang Qiao's telegram, Jian Ling was overjoyed. When news broke that Jiang Qiao was the murderer, she felt that perhaps her close friend, who was much older than her, was in grave danger.
How could Jiang Qiao, a pregnant woman, possibly get away with stabbing those two people without them even realizing it?
The enemy wanted nothing more than to eat her flesh and drink her blood. Now that they've caught her, how could they let her go so easily?
Therefore, Jian Ling spent the entire day in anxiety and trepidation.
You know, Jiang Qiao suddenly sent her a letter, how could she not be happy? He can even send a telegram, so he must be alright.
"Girl, what happened? Are you alright?"
Jiang Qiao briefly explained the enemy's plan to Jian Ling. After reading it, Jian Ling cursed, "These bastards are worse than pigs and dogs! If they have the guts, they should fight face to face. If they do this, won't their families and everyone around them suffer as well?"
However, after calming down, he realized Jiang Qiao's predicament: "Girl, don't go out and show your face. They're looking for you everywhere. Putting aside the evidence, I reckon that even if those two wake up, their testimonies won't be good for you."
The enemy has already done this much. If someone is confused and sees a figure, they'll assume it's you doing it. There's no one else in the carriage, just the three of you. You can't explain yourself no matter how hard you try.
For now, you should lay low. Although you are innocent, don't forget that all the evidence points to you. You have the opportunity and possibility to do something. You can produce drugs and the like.
Even if it was done by the enemy, you still need to catch the person and get a confession before you can prove your innocence.
"Jiang Qiao, don't take any risks. I know you're worried about your family, but the situation is unclear right now. Let's be patient and wait until we catch the enemy before we talk about anything else." Jiang Qiao sighed. "If Uncle Zhou contacts you and asks them to come help, we won't have enough manpower. Aunt Jian, I need to meet with you. We need to readjust our plans. I have a feeling that Cobra has appeared in Beijing."
Jian Ling readily agreed, and the two arranged a place and time to meet.
After Jiang Qiao packed up her belongings and burned all the reports, she continued on her way to her destination.
Now, she dares not take the main road and can only take the side roads. Jian Ling said that the wanted notice was issued very quickly, and there are probably guards on the road.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Qiao dared not drive anymore. She was unfamiliar with the road conditions, and besides, she was tired. She put away the car and went straight into her space to rest, where she had a nutritious meal.
Touching her belly, she felt a pang of emotion. You know, when other women are pregnant, they're usually overjoyed, but she's had such bad luck, and now even the baby is suffering because of her. It's not only mentally exhausting, but also emotionally draining.
While feeling sorry for herself, she also felt sorry for the baby in her belly. Other babies had their fathers around them, but she had to hide around with her pregnant belly.
"My son, please take good care of yourself and don't worry your mother. Come out when your period is over."
Jiang Qiao didn't know if the baby in her belly could hear her, but she went straight to sleep and didn't come out until it was broad daylight.
He emerged from the bushes and surveyed his surroundings.
Because she was in the countryside, there were houses in front of her, and she could see smoke rising from their chimneys in the distance. She could even hear roosters crowing.
With a sigh, she tightened her tattered cotton-padded coat, picked up her bundle, and set off. She didn't plan to enter the village; she just wanted to ask passersby for directions.
She had studied the map, and the location was quite different from the one Jian Ling had mentioned. Therefore, she had to try to turn onto the main road as much as possible; otherwise, driving would be really difficult.
Following directions from passersby, Jiang Qiao walked and stopped intermittently, finally reaching the official road at noon.
From a distance, she could see people setting up checkpoints to inspect pedestrians and passing vehicles.
Jiang Qiao snorted, crossed the official road, and headed south. If the main road didn't work, wouldn't she take a detour? Did she really think she couldn't endure the hardship?
As soon as it was light, Jian Ling told Dong Kaizhen that she was going out to investigate and would also help her find a job.
"Work? What are you going to do? We're doing something serious, this isn't the time to make money."
Jian Ling hugged Dong Kaizhen's arm and said, "Sister Dong, what am I supposed to do with money? Jiang Qiao is nowhere to be found, and I'm so worried. It's not good for us to just search aimlessly like this. I was thinking, shouldn't we get closer to the people investigating Jiang Qiao and the others? That way, we might be able to get some clues, right? Didn't we say that there are enemies making trouble here?"
Speaking of Jiang Qiao, Dong Kaizhen sighed, "I believe Jiang Qiao wouldn't do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding. But we have no evidence. I think Jiang Qiao may have already fallen victim to the enemy."
"Jian Ling, do you think we should start looking for Jiang Qiao?"
Jian Ling shook her head. "In this vast sea of people, you know where the enemy is hiding and whether Jiang Qiao is still alive are all unknowns. Instead of searching for her like looking for a needle in a haystack, we should find the enemy first. Only in this way can we clear Jiang Qiao's name."
As for Jiang Qiao, whether he lives or dies, there's nothing we can do to help him for now. I just hope he's lucky and that nothing serious happens to him; that's all I can pray for.
Dong Kaizhen nodded solemnly, "I understand. However, the kind of job you're thinking of is hopeless. Those families need to hire people, and they have to go through layers of investigation. Putting aside everything else, just because you're someone close to Jiang Qiao, no one will hire you, and it's even more impossible for you to fake it."
However, we can start from somewhere else, not just the compound. I'll go look around. Where are we planning to go today?
Jian Ling shook her head. "I don't have a specific goal for now, and you don't need to wait for me to come back. Just go wherever the road takes you. Just keep your machine running, and I can contact you anytime."
The two of them lived in the compound where the veterans lived; they were all family, which made things more convenient for them.
Jian Ling said goodbye and left immediately. She had to hurry and find Jiang Qiao, who was pregnant. She didn't know if the enemy had made a move against her.
Just think, she was so angry she wanted to kill him. What problem could Jiang Qiao possibly have? Anyone with a brain could see that the so-called evidence could be faked, especially when Jiang Qiao was not in her right mind. Fingerprints and such could only prove that Jiang Qiao had come into contact with the evidence, but they could not prove that Jiang Qiao had killed someone.
However, she knew it wouldn't work; she needed to investigate which people understood it before it would be effective. Unfortunately, those people wouldn't listen to her, which was Jian Ling's biggest frustration.
Not to mention Jian Ling, even people who have spent a lot of time with Jiang Qiao think that this is definitely not something Jiang Qiao would do.
