After seeing Hou Diankui and his group off, Jiang Qiao also packed her things to leave.
"Huh? You're leaving so soon? Aren't you coming with us for the interrogation?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "You don't need any more people, what would I do there?"
Song Shutian teased, "Don't you want to know where that old woman is hiding?"
Jiang Qiao sighed softly and looked at Song Shutian with a serious expression. "I want to know more than anyone where these sons of bitches are hiding."
However, after hiding for so many years, do you think that old woman would easily tell others where she is hiding? Even those who followed her back then don't know, let alone the old Japanese devil's daughter.
Moreover, this Sato Shizumi is not as simple as we think. How long has the old devil been in prison? Although this woman does not live with the old devil, she must live not far away.
Maybe this old Japanese devil started training this girl a long time ago.
Both father and daughter are the stubborn type, so it's not easy to get them to talk to.
Song Shutian was well aware of this. He found even an old Japanese soldier troublesome, let alone this woman. It was precisely because he found her difficult that he wanted to ask Jiang Qiao to make this trip.
“Jiang Qiao, come on over. We need you. Besides, you’re not some temporary staff member anymore. You don’t know, do you? The commander has already ordered you to be a permanent staff member, and he’s even giving you a salary and all the benefits. You can collect them when you get back; they’re all at your home.”
Jiang Qiao was dumbfounded. "What do you mean? I've become a regular soldier? Are you kidding me? How come you didn't discuss such a big thing with me? This is... this is too much—"
Song Shutian shrugged. "We don't have the final say on this. The commander has already given his orders. What can we do?"
Song Shutian knew better than anyone how much Jiang Qiao resisted this, but he just couldn't understand what this girl was thinking.
So many people envy their jobs, with good benefits and high salaries, so why doesn't it make sense for Jiang Qiao?
Jiang Qiao sighed, "What am I supposed to say? You should discuss this with me."
I know that the leader did this for my own good, but you also know my personality. I just want to live a peaceful life, take care of the elderly, take care of this family, and do what I like to do.
"Treating people's illnesses in my spare time, that's my ideal. To be honest, being out and about all the time isn't really for me. I haven't experienced life and death, so I don't know how happy a simple life is—"
Song Shutian couldn't understand Jiang Qiao's troubles at all, and could only explain with a wry smile, "You're not that old, why are you thinking so much? Do you even know how Zhuge Liang died?"
Jiang Qiao gave a bitter smile. "If I had Zhuge Liang's skills, I wouldn't have been chased down to my door to assassinate me."
I can't compare to you guys. I have elderly parents to support and young children to raise. There are some things I can't afford to gamble on, and I hope my worries are unfounded.
"Forget it, we'll deal with that later. Can you apply for a refund?"
Song Shutian nodded and asked with a curious look, "What, you haven't even come in yet, and you're already thinking about leaving?"
Let me tell you, being officially employed has its advantages. You'll be provided with uniforms and weapons. With that as a guarantee, at least you'll be much more able to fight back when you encounter an attack in the future.
Later, when it's time for you to get married, you can switch to an office job. Actually, I think working here is much better than working in a factory, right?
Whether it's good or bad, Jiang Qiao is quite helpless for the time being. Now, she can't refuse anymore. Since it's already like this, she might as well accept it. She has to find that bastard Xu Shaoqing before she can consider what to do next.
"Okay, let's go. I'll also meet up with that Sato Shizumi."
However, when Jiang Qiao and the others arrived, the first piece of news they heard was very unpleasant.
"What? You almost escaped? What happened?"
Not to mention Song Shutian, even Jiang Qiao and the others were puzzled. How could this be? With so many people watching, in this place, it's really, really difficult for even a rat, let alone a grown person, to escape. There are several checkpoints to overcome.
"Has that Sato taken some kind of super-potion?"
Liu Zhanyu muttered to himself, then thought it unlikely. "Isn't that medicine unsuitable? Would that old Japanese devil give his daughter that stuff? Isn't that risky? Besides, she's not that old; she doesn't need it at all."
Before Jiang Qiao could even speak, Cao Mingyuan muttered, "Can you analyze these people using common sense? They're all devils. They can send their daughters and wives to the front lines to entertain the troops, what else can't they do?"
Jiang Qiao sighed, "There's nothing they can't do, only things we can't imagine."
I've dealt with these people in my past life. The things these Japanese devils did can't even be described as heinous.
As they walked, they listened to the guards' introduction. It seemed that this Sato Shizumi was not only physically strong, but also quite skilled. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to take down several guards and escape.
Unfortunately, she was out of luck. Before leaving, Song Shutian had two more temporary 24-hour sentries added, which is why Sato Shizumi didn't manage to escape.
"Hmph, they're desperate, they can't wait any longer."
After Liu Zhanyu finished speaking, Cao Mingyuan added, "Of course we can't wait. There are so many people on the mountain and such a large laboratory. If we destroy it, all their hard work will be wasted."
Jiang Qiao and the others weren't in a hurry to interrogate the people immediately. After traveling all this way, they rested and ate a meal to calm themselves down before entering the interrogation room again. Cao Mingyuan and Liu Zhanyu then went to interrogate the other people, trying to dig out as many clues as possible.
As for dealing with Sato Shizumi, this important task can only be left to Song Shutian and Jiang Qiao.
That's a tough nut to crack. Don't let their young age fool you; they've all undergone a lot of professional training. If they think this woman is simple and innocent, they're sorely mistaken.
When Jiang Qiao entered the room and saw Sato Shizumi sitting there, he couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder they're father and son. The old devil had the same expression back then, as if nothing had anything to do with him."
When Jiang Qiao came in, Sato Shizumi didn't pay much attention at first, but after taking a closer look, she was surprised. Even though she hid it well, her eyes betrayed her true feelings.
Jiang Qiao smiled at her. "You recognize me, right? You must have seen my picture, right? Do I need to introduce myself again? I don't think so. You know who I am in your heart."
Jiang Qiao casually tossed the notebook in her hand onto the table, then leaned against it, crossed her arms, and stared straight at Sato Shizumi.
The two women looked at each other, while Song Shutian remained silent. He didn't know what the two women were doing, but he wisely refrained from disturbing them.
After exchanging glances with Jiang Qiao for a while, Sato Shizumi finally looked away, saying, "I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know you."
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Whether you know him or not doesn't matter to me, but you should have heard of Shinichi Sato, right? I heard that he's dying and I don't know if he'll make it to see his daughter one last time."
