Just then, a message came from the radio, and Jiang Qiao quickly picked it up. "Jiang Qiao, if you have nothing to do recently, go and stay in the back mountain."
Jiang Qiao frowned and replied, "What do you mean?"
"The enemy has been mobilized, and three jade tablets have been stolen."
Jiang Qiao was even more puzzled this time. What did the jade pendant mean? Wasn't it on her? What did Song Shutian mean by this? Could it be that the other party had made a fake of it?
"A counterfeit?"
"Yes, set up the plan. Wait for the enemy to enter, and when the fish takes the bait, go to the back mountain to wait. Someone will cooperate with you."
"Is the old Japanese devil no longer capable?"
This was the only place Jiang Qiao could think of; otherwise, the enemy wouldn't have taken this risk.
"Almost, we'll talk more when we meet."
Song Shutian's information was quite overwhelming, and Jiang Qiao was still confused. Hadn't the Tong family intervened, or was it still ineffective?
Then why come here? What purpose can that valley serve? Could it be related to the jade tablet?
But if the enemy knows that the jade pendant is fake, will they still be able to come over?
Moreover, what did they use as the basis for imitating that third jade pendant? She really never took it out. Could it be that the enemy couldn't tell the difference?
It's no wonder Jiang Qiao didn't understand; this scheme had been set up long ago. When they learned that the other party was looking for the whereabouts of the jade pendant, Song Shutian and his group used the pretense of having dug up a jade pendant as bait.
Especially after learning that Jiang Qiao's master was actually three brothers, they concluded that there were most likely three jade pendants.
Later, Jiang Qiao took out one piece, and the other person had one piece, so they naturally made a total of three pieces.
Of course, both jade tokens are with Jiang Qiao, and the enemy knows this too.
However, the time Jiang Jinyu met with Jiang Qiao in the past was not just about interrogating prisoners; retrieving the jade token was also an important matter.
So now that all three jade tablets are gathered, the game is set up. With the bait, all that's left is to wait for the fish to take the bait.
After figuring out the key point, Jiang Qiao couldn't help but admire her brother's brainpower. He had started planning so early. Wasn't he afraid that the enemy wouldn't take the bait?
Jiang Jinyu wasn't around, so she couldn't ask him anything. Since he told her to go to the back mountain, she would go. She wouldn't be able to stay with her family for the time being.
When Jiang Qiao woke up early in the morning, she told her family that she was going into the mountains. "I said I needed medicine urgently, so I have to go. Uncle, I can't see you off. I was planning to go back to the city for a few days."
Gu Hanting understood his granddaughter's predicament at the moment. "Alright, let's go into the mountains. Bring plenty of clean clothes, finish quickly and come back soon. We'll stay home for now."
Gu Zhengkai didn't mind. "I don't need you to see me off, Jiang Qiao. Take care of yourself in the mountains. If you have any problems, just tell the people there. Don't be shy. After all, you're the only girl there."
"Take some time to read; exams are coming up, so don't be careless."
Ma Liu felt sorry for Jiang Qiao, "Tell me, this Xiao Song is really something. The New Year isn't even over yet, it wouldn't be too late to start after the fifteenth, why is he in such a hurry, sigh—"
Qiao Jie patted his brother on the shoulder, "The child has important things to do, so let's not hold him back. Girl, don't worry, we'll stay at home. If anything happens, we'll come find you. Don't worry about home."
Even if Jiang Qiao was worried, she had no choice at this moment. Although it was a telegram sent by Song Shutian, it was also an order. She had to go whether she wanted to or not.
"Brother, if I haven't come back by the start of the semester, please be careful. Find someone to keep you company. Once you've made it back, remember to call home."
Jiang Qiao was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to make it back in time, as who knew when those old devils would go into the mountains.
So, after packing up, I slipped some money and tickets to both my younger and older brothers.
"They've all been given to you in advance, Zhihong. You'll be staying at school for now. I think Grandpa has already explained why you're staying there. When you go out into the world, you'll first need to learn how to get along with others, and staying at school is a great way to do that."
"We'll talk when I get back. Remember, don't leave the school grounds unless absolutely necessary. If anything happens, go with your classmates. The enemy isn't defeated yet; your safety is paramount."
Both brothers have been through things, so they know the importance of their own safety. If they are well, their elders and Jiang Qiao will not be hindered by others.
After making the arrangements, Jiang Qiao ate and set off with her things on her back.
After Qiao Jie and the others saw the child off, they all sighed. Only they knew in their hearts what kind of medicine they were going into the mountains at this time. They were not ignorant of the danger; the child would probably have to go do chores again.
"Sigh, I wonder if it's dangerous for the girl to go in? She's in such a hurry to go in, this must be something serious."
Gu Hanting patted his two brothers on the shoulders. "Don't think too much. Since the child doesn't want us to worry, let's stay home and watch over him. Maybe this is the key moment to close the net."
Qiao Jie thought about it and suddenly understood what was going on. After all, Jiang Qiao and Song Shutian didn't hide some things from the two old men.
If Jiang Qiao were to suddenly enter at this moment, it would probably be just as Gu Hanting said.
The old man's worried expression immediately changed, and he said with a smile, "Maybe it's a good omen. If we arrest all these bastards, we'll be much more at ease. With Qiao'er here, I'm not worried. Our girl is destined for great things."
It's incredible luck. Even Gu Hanting has to admit that. Who else would have their child, who has been missing for so many years, come looking for them? Only their Jiang Qiao.
Ever since the child was found, everything at home has improved. With such a precious child protecting him, he no longer worries about the child.
"Don't just sit at home all the time. You two take the kids out for a walk. Zhixuan, Zhihong, go out with your two grandfathers. You can study later."
Gu Hanting stopped visiting other people's homes. It wasn't appropriate for him in that position. Although his granddaughters and sons were all successful, he still had to be self-aware.
Jiang Qiao carried her basket and headed straight for Old Lin, but she ran into Zhou Yu on the way. Zhou Yu was asking about his grandfather's address, and the two met unexpectedly on the road.
"Jiang Qiao? Oh, Jiang Qiao—"
Jiang Qiao really didn't recognize Zhou Yu. This person was dressed like a cadre sent to the countryside. She really couldn't understand what he was thinking.
"Dr. Zhou? No, what brings you here? Do you have relatives here?"
Zhou Yu quickly ran over, slightly out of breath; it was clear this guy lacked exercise.
In front of Jiang Qiao, Zhou Yu stopped beating around the bush. This girl was a smart one; beating around the bush would only increase Jiang Qiao's dislike for him.
“Jiang Qiao, I came here to find you. I don’t know anything about your hometown, I only know that your surname is Gu. Fortunately, you are a well-known person, so it’s not difficult to find out about you.”
