After Su Ying called Director Hao, she went to Su Xinyi's house and said she wanted to meet Wen Yan.
She couldn't go directly to Wen Yan for fear of alerting the Xue family.
Su Xinyi didn't ask any more questions and immediately ran to the animal husbandry station and told Wen Yan that the stray dog he adopted last time was feeling unwell again and asked him to go to its house to check on it.
"Go after get off work. Su Ying happened to be here today, and my mom asked you to have dinner with her."
"Okay, I'll go after work."
Wen Yan understood. After the meeting at Xue's house last night, Xue Jinyun was very happy and said that there had been great progress. Wen Yan was still puzzled. With such a good opportunity last night, why didn't Sister Ying erase their related memories? There must have been other unexpected circumstances.
Colleague Wen Yan raised his eyebrows and joked, "Xiao Wen, I like you. You have no parents and are all alone. Take the initiative. It's not shameful to be a live-in son-in-law."
Wen Yan: ...Hehe...Hehe.
Wen Yan went straight to Su Xinyi's house after work, but this time Su's mother did not meet him at the door. Su Xinyi said, "My mother went to my cousin's house to attend the full moon banquet."
"Then what are we having for dinner?" Wen Yan was stunned.
Su Xinyi found it funny, as if they came from another world. They didn’t ask for the food to be delicious, but they couldn’t go hungry, and being well fed was important.
"I ordered some shredded pork noodles. Just have a bite."
When Wen Yan heard that there was still meat, he thought it was quite good.
Su Xinyi also fried a few poached eggs and placed them on a plate on the side. Seeing that Su Ying had eaten one, he picked up another one for her and kept asking her to eat more.
"I slept all day and didn't eat at noon. I have to go up the mountain in the middle of the night. I need to eat more."
Wen Yan: ...There were four fried eggs, Su Ying ate three, and the remaining one was given to him by Su Ying after she watched him swallow it.
Wen Yan took a bite of the fragrant fried egg, feeling extremely satisfied, and asked, "Sister Ying, what unexpected incident happened last night? Why didn't you erase the memories of the Xue family?"
Su Ying drank a mouthful of noodle soup and said helplessly, "That idiot Qu Liang told Han Jingyuan everything he knew. Han Jingyuan and I stayed in the same closet last night. His leadership also set up a temporary emergency response team. We have to change our plan as well."
Wen Yan was in a dilemma. "What should I do? Will I be locked up?"
"No, they don't know that we both came from another time. I said that you came to me because of your brother's death and wanted to cooperate as an insider. The higher-ups have agreed. When the Xue family case is over, you can still make meritorious contributions."
That’s pretty good, Wen Yan thinks it’s good too.
"Thank you, Sister Ying, but can we trust that Huigu? Will she set a trap to deceive us?"
Su Ying put down the bowl and wiped her mouth with a tissue. "I don't think so. We'll know when we go over there tonight. You can come with us."
The meeting time was set at midnight, and the location was a cemetery in the suburbs. Now Wen Yan felt that he was indeed crazy when he asked Su Ying to meet him at the cemetery in the middle of the night last time.
He muttered, "You must be crazy. You have to choose the middle of the night to go to the cemetery. Isn't it creepy?"
Su Ying smiled, "You've become less courageous."
Wen Yan scratched his head embarrassedly to cover up, "No, I'm just getting used to the life here."
Wen Yan went back before Su's mother did. It was still early for Su Ying to eat, and Han Jingyuan didn't call, so she slept for a while and woke up at half past ten.
Su Xinyi was reading under the desk lamp. He turned his head and smiled, "Are you hungry? Do you want a midnight snack?"
Su Ying smiled, "You can take some cookies and I'll take them with me. If you get hungry while listening to stories at night, I can still eat them."
Su Xinyi gave her a bag of biscuits and two pieces of chocolate, and said, "Han Jingyuan called at nine o'clock. I said you fell asleep, and he told you to sleep and meet at the foot of the mountain later."
Su Ying nodded. When she went downstairs, she saw that there was no light in Su's father and mother's room, and they were probably asleep. The two of them tiptoed out of the door. Wen Yan came on a bicycle at the right time.
It takes about an hour and twenty minutes to ride a bike from here to the suburban cemetery. After only twenty minutes, Wen Yan slowed down.
Su Ying hit him and said, "Wen Yan, you are too weak. You need to exercise more."
Wen Yan: "...Sister, this is an uphill road. I am out of breath because of the uphill road. I don't have any special abilities, and I am carrying someone uphill, so of course I am out of breath."
Su Ying wanted to switch with him, "Forget it, you sit in the back and I'll ride."
Wen Yan: "...If you ride a bike with a man, will your brother-in-law be jealous if he knows?"
"Won't."
"Why?"
"Because he knows that I don't like those who are too weak. You are not my type. Even if he is jealous, he won't be attracted to someone like you."
Wen Yan: …
…
The cemetery in the middle of the night was actually quite eerie. Su Ying and Wen Yan both came from another world, so this little scene wasn't enough to scare them.
Han Jingyuan and Qu Liang were already waiting for them. Han Jingyuan said that everything from the foot of the mountain to the designated meeting place on the mountain had been controlled, so nothing would happen and outsiders would not be allowed to break in.
Su Ying turned her head and looked at the familiar face. Although it had the same face, the temperament was different.
The one from the other world can disguise himself, this one is a complete idiot.
Su Ying asked Qu Liang, "Who is that? You are so stupid that you can't even read the encrypted message?"
Qu Liang: ...
For some reason, he always felt that Han Jingyuan's wife was familiar, and he would unconsciously think of the girl he had seen several times in his dreams.
He even thought in his heart that she must be a gentle and kind girl who even spoke in a soft voice.
But when Su Ying opened her mouth, it completely destroyed his comparison. This fierce and ruthless woman was definitely not the girl in the photo...
He said angrily: "How could I know that even my own brother would lie to me in a dream?"
The group walked to the designated location and stopped in front of a tombstone.
The tombstone was well built, but only the three words "Anonymous" were engraved on it.
The area around the tomb is quite clean, and someone should clean it regularly.
Su Ying asked, "Whose tomb is this?"
Everyone shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know, only Han Jingyuan said, "I don't know whose tomb it is. I asked someone to check and found that Xue Hongdong comes to this tomb to worship every year."
Su Ying analyzed, "Could it be Xue Hongdong's sister who was living in a brothel and was forced to death by him?"
Qu Liang was shocked. "No way, how could I not know?"
Su Ying really didn't want to say anything to him, "It's normal for you to not know this, it would be weird if you knew it."
Qu Liang shut up.
"When will the girl named Huigu come?" Wen Yansheng was afraid that the woman was playing tricks on everyone.
It is now 11:45. Han Jingyuan said, "It is not the agreed time yet. Wait a little longer."
…
At twelve o'clock, I saw a middle-aged woman with her hair combed back in a bun with a silver hairpin inserted in it. She was wearing a black cheongsam, a style a bit like that of the Republic of China, and was carrying a bamboo basket covered with a piece of white cloth.
It was eerie and terrifying. If it weren't for the shadows under the moonlight, Wen Yan and Qu Liang would have fainted from fright.
The two of them leaned against each other to give each other courage and confirmed that it was the Huigu they knew.
"The cemetery, the black dress, she tried to scare us."
Qu Liang agreed deeply, "Anyone who stays with Xue Hongdong for a long time will become a pervert."
Huigu had been the housekeeper of the Xue family for quite some time and was a very serious person. As soon as she approached, even Qu Liang, who dared to change his surname, did not dare to say anything to her face.
Huigu came to the tomb and looked around. Her expression did not change. Her voice was a little hoarse like scraping sand. She asked Suying: "Are these the people you can trust?"
"There is another one." Han Jingyuan said, "I have another comrade who will be here soon."
Su Ying asked, "Who is it?"
Han Jingyuan shone the flashlight into the distance and saw Guan Ming.
Su Ying didn't have much to say. Guan Ming had always been brooding over the fact that his two comrades had died while rescuing the hostages and Han Jingyuan. With this opportunity today, he must ask Huigu in person.
After Guan Ming arrived, Su Yingcai asked Huigu, "Logically, if you want to find someone to cooperate with, you should find Han Jingyuan. Why did you write to me?"
Huigu uncovered the white linen on the bamboo basket, took out the incense burner, lit three sticks of incense, and bowed before she slowly said, "I don't trust men, but I can barely believe what you say."
Su Ying couldn't help but said, "But I don't believe you. You are the person Xue Hongdong trusts the most. You have saved him, and he also treats you as his goddaughter. How do I know that this is not a trap set by you?"
Huigu looked at Su Ying, and her expression finally changed a little. This little girl was definitely mad at her, absolutely!
I clearly believe in her sincerity, but I say this deliberately to disgust you. Is it because she chose the time and place at the cemetery at midnight?
He really holds a grudge.
Huigu wiped the tombstone carefully and asked them, "Do you know who is buried in this tomb?"
Su Ying nodded, "I guessed a little bit, it might be Xue Hongdong's biological sister, but what does this have to do with you? Don't tell me that you have any relationship with the person in this tomb. Did she save you when you were a child?"
Huigu said: "She was my mother. I was by her side when she died. Xue Hongdong was a beast. He thought my mother was dirty and refused to give her a chance to live. Later, I begged for food all the way to the door of Xue's house. Xue Hongdong saw that I looked a bit like my mother and felt a little guilty, so he gave me a bowl of rice."
Su Ying: ...
Judging from Huigu's age, she was seven or eight years older than Xue Hongdong's nephew, Xue Quanhai, who later changed his surname to Xue. In other words, she was Xue Hongdong's biological sister, who was sold to a brothel at a very young age and gave birth to a child not long after...
She sighed heavily, "Then why did you wait until now to take revenge? You were by Xue Hongdong's side, and you had plenty of opportunities to kill him."
Huigu said: "I thought so at first, but later I changed my mind. I was waiting for an opportunity to make Xue Hongdong fall from hope to despair. Your intervention gave me hope. I wanted to make Xue Hongdong's life worse than death."
…
Hui Gu looked at Qu Liang, and her expressionless face finally showed some changes. She said, "The Xue family is a bunch of crazy people, only Qu Liang is a normal person. But this child is too stupid, and he was fooled by the whole family."
She looked at Han Jingyuan again, her eyes also showed disdain, "He arranged for you to stay in the closet. If I hadn't helped cover it up, you wouldn't even be able to enter the ward."
Han Jingyuan: ...
Qu Liang: ...
Su Ying didn't want to hold a criticism meeting in the cemetery in the middle of the night, so she asked, "You said in the letter that the girl's adoptive mother in the photo is Qu Liang's aunt. Tell us about it."
Qu Liang: "...How did my aunt become the adoptive mother of that girl?"
Su Ying scolded, "Don't ask questions now, let Huigu speak."
Huigu said: "When Aunt Quliang was three months old, she was taken to Taoyuan. Do you know how the people there experimented with raising babies here?"
Everyone was a little horrified and didn't dare to guess. Only Han Jingyuan noticed that his wife lowered her head slightly and lowered her eyes.
Aunt Hui did not keep the secret and said, "In addition to feeding the special medicine, they would give the baby a blood transfusion every month. Ordinary people would definitely not be able to bear it, but with this special medicine, they could. After several years of continuous blood transfusions, Aunt Qu Liang, Qu Hui, has stimulated incredible healing abilities, but the medicine cannot be stopped. Once stopped, there will be side effects."
"Qu Hui..." Qu Liang was stunned. His aunt's name had never appeared in the family tree.
"Huigu, what's your name?"
Huigu said, "Your aunt and your mother are twins, and I look a bit like them. Xue Hongdong pretended to be kind and changed my name to that of his eldest daughter who was sent away, and adopted me as his goddaughter. He was the only one who felt emotionally satisfied."
Huigu said, "Later, your aunt came back with the people from Taoyuan several times. We secretly recognized each other and became good friends who could confide in each other without telling anyone. Your aunt said that the people from Taoyuan captured some people with various abilities and locked them up, and used their blood to exchange with her to test the effect of the blood exchange. Those people were miserable and couldn't die. She didn't want the blood of innocent people anymore, so she planned to escape."
"The last time Qu Hui came here was 25 years ago. She said goodbye to me that time and said she would hide away after she returned and would never come again. She was holding a child with bruises all over her body. I saw that the baby was almost dead, but Qu Hui said that she used her healing power to protect her brain. As long as the brain is not dead, she can save it if she takes it back."
"I guess the little girl in the photo is the baby that Qu Hui brought back and saved."
Everyone was very surprised. If the girl that the Xue family and Taoyuan had been looking for was from this world, then she would have had a blood transfusion from childhood to adulthood to have the chance to grow that big.
Who helped her to change her blood? The pain must have been hard to bear, right?
Qu Liang thought of his brother, who had been brought to another world since infancy and had such a hard time growing up. For a moment, the hatred in his heart weakened a little.
Only Han Jingyuan noticed that his wife's pupils were not focused. He took out the biscuits that Su Xinyi had prepared for her from his wife's pocket, tore open the bag, and put them into Su Ying's hand.
"Are you hungry after listening to the story?"
Su Ying blinked and said, "It's okay."
Han Jingyuan asked Huigu: "I can't understand. More than three years ago, the Xue family rushed to the scene of the incident. Although they didn't catch the girl in time, I was still unconscious at the scene. Wouldn't it be a permanent solution if the Xue family just killed me?"
Hui Gu explained: "Xue Hongdong always leaves himself a way out in everything. At that time, he didn't catch the girl, and he thought that she cared so much about your life and death, so it would be more useful to save your life than to let you die."
At this time, Guan Ming, who had been silent the whole time, asked with a pale face: "What about the female hostage who was held together with Han Jingyuan? What happened to her? We clearly heard her cry for help."
In order to save people, they stormed the bunker and two of their comrades died on the spot.
He was injured and watched those people take away the unconscious Han Jingyuan and the female hostage. It was not until half a month later that he found Han Jingyuan, who had been transferred to another place and was imprisoned to the point of being on the verge of a mental breakdown.
The hostage was dead, her broken face rotted away.
However, Han Jingyuan had forgotten the key memories. He didn't remember how he came here, who the missing hostage was in the house, and what happened while he was detained. He didn't remember anything.
Guan Ming stubbornly believed that Han Jingyuan pretended to have amnesia in order to evade responsibility. In addition, two of his comrades were sacrificed, so he has been brooding over it and wanted to find out the truth.
Huigu looked at him with some pity and explained to him:
"That woman is a lover that Xue Hongdong likes very much. Although Xue Hongdong's nephews and nieces don't get along with each other normally, they will definitely unite once an outsider tries to seize power. They set a trap for that woman and let her follow them and see such a confidential matter."
"But you guys happened to arrive. How could Xue Hongdong let you take that woman away? It would reveal his secrets. So no matter how much he likes her, he can only set a trap to make you mistakenly think she is a hostage."
"They moved her to another place of imprisonment. In order to prevent people from recognizing her, Xue Hongdong also destroyed her face and left her to rot."
"In fact, Xue Hongdong's nephew and niece all guessed that Taoyuan might not be as beautiful as they imagined, but Xue Hongdong was obsessed. He was too afraid of death, and no one could stop him from wanting to live forever."
…
The six people discussed in the cemetery until dawn. Huigu and Qu Liang acted as insiders, and eight days later they rescued the adoptive mother of the mysterious girl from the Xue family.
The adoptive mother was sent back from a parallel world, and she should be able to answer many questions.
Eight days is enough time for Su Ying to return to South Island.
Su Ying said to Han Jingyuan: "Before the mission, I want to go back to South Island to see some children."
Han Jingyuan really didn't want Su Ying to take risks this time. "In fact, if we go, we will definitely be able to rescue... rescue Aunt Qu Liang. You just wait in Jing City."
Su Ying was a little surprised by Han Jingyuan's attitude, and said with a smile: "I am the 'mascot' of Chengxi Police Station. You see, the cases I've been involved in have all gone very smoothly and have reached the final stage. I will definitely go."
Han Jingyuan couldn't persuade Su Ying, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Then I'll go back to South Island with you."
However, when they were about to set off, Han Jingyuan had something urgent to do and could not come, so he asked Guan Ming to come and tell Su Ying.
On the platform, Guan Ming's attitude was much better than before. He asked Su Ying, "It's not convenient for me to contact my family now and reveal my whereabouts. When you go back, if Hong Sui asks, tell her that I'm fine and will definitely come home."
Su Ying rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Sheng Hongsui's biological father is Xue Hongdong's son-in-law. Xue Hongdong is wary of his son-in-law. Although he didn't let his son-in-law participate in the core secrets, Sheng Hongsui compromised and helped them get information."
Guan Ming nodded and said, "The leader has already told me. I know that she has a lot of problems. After this mission is over, I will report to transfer to another job. I am her husband, and I want to accompany her to correct her problems."
That's fine. The law still gives people a chance to reform themselves. Su Ying had nothing to say.
If people have concerns, they will try their best to stay alive and go back to fulfill their promises, right?
So Su Ying refused, "When the task is completed, you can go back and tell her yourself."
…
Han Jingchen and Gu Zhinan were taking their two younger sisters home after school. When they were still a few dozen meters away from home, they saw smoke rising from the kitchen.
"Could it be that my second uncle and second aunt have returned?"
"I don't know. I didn't call in advance."
In any case, the two teenagers, each holding a child, ran home quickly. Four dishes and a soup were already on the table, all of which were their favorite meals.
"Mom, mom, you're back."
When Han Xinxing saw the food on the dining table in the main hall, he went straight back to the kitchen and threw himself into Su Ying's arms.
Su Ying took the baby in her arms and compared the child's height. It was almost up to her neck.
Children grow up so fast. It feels like several months even though we have only been apart for ten days.
"I'm back, but I have to go out again in a few days."
"Is there still a case to handle?" Gu Cancan also ran to Su Ying and acted coquettishly, "Where's Dad? Why hasn't Dad come back?"
"He will come back with me next time."
The children chattered and told Su Ying about all the trivial things that had happened to the four of them at home in the past few days, no matter how big or small.
Han Jingchen said, "Second Aunt, I just realized that you let us be independent for our own good. When you and Second Uncle are not around, we can take care of ourselves. We have been living well these past few days."
Su Ying smiled: "Han Jingchen, I feel relieved if you think this way. Although I have always asked you to take care of your brothers and sisters, you also have to take care of yourself, understand?"
Han Jingchen's expression changed. "I'm so scared every time you use this tone. It's like you're leaving your last words. I'd rather you criticize me a few words."
Su Ying changed the subject and said that they would have dinner together after Qiao Lanlan and Lao Ding got off work.
Sheng Hongsui from next door happened to come over and asked about Guan Ming again, "It's been more than ten days, and you haven't called home. Has your deputy battalion commander Han contacted your family? Has he contacted Guan Ming?"
Su Ying said calmly: "Who knows, maybe the mission was lost, or maybe he died, just wait for the organization to notify you."
Sheng Hongsui: "Su Ying, what do you mean?"
Su Ying smiled and said, "It means what it says. Many small things that you think are insignificant may cause irreversible consequences."
"It's like you drank the medicine your mother-in-law brewed, thinking that you could have another child after losing the one you had. But if Guan Ming doesn't come back, the next child won't be yours and his. You might still have children and grandchildren, but he can only be a lonely ghost. Tell me, isn't this the evil result of the cause you planted in the first place?"
Sheng Hongsui's face was pale and Su Ying was too lazy to pay attention to her.
…
After a while, Qiao Lanlan came back from get off work and hugged Su Ying tightly, "You are finally back. Sleep with me tonight."
Han Xinxing and Gu Cancan refused to agree. For some reason, the two sisters insisted on sleeping with Su Ying tonight.
Su Ying told the two little girls a story about a distant world where there were some people with magical powers and a strange beast with wings on its back. It loved to capture these people and assimilate them, and after assimilation, they would become the same kind as the strange beast...
The two little girls listened attentively, and then fell asleep unknowingly. Su Ying used some of her special powers to make the two little girls sleep even more deeply.
Then she opened the bedside table, took out the locked diary at the bottom, and went next door to find Qiao Lanlan.
Lao Ding had been tricked by Qiao Lanlan into staying in the dormitory for the night. She was waiting for Su Ying.
Su Ying told Qiao Lanlan roughly what had happened in Beijing in the past few days, and then handed the diary to Qiao Lanlan.
She asked, "Lanlan, if I can't come back next time, could you please give this diary to Han Jingyuan?"
Alarm bells went off in Qiao Lanlan's mind. She had a bad feeling that Su Ying was making arrangements for her funeral.
She shook her head repeatedly, "I don't agree. If you want to give it to him, just wait until you come back from the mission and give it to him yourself."
Su Ying comforted her, "I will definitely come back, just in case."
Qiao Lanlan still refused. She thought that if someone had concerns in their heart, they would definitely come back to fulfill their promise.
If she doesn't answer, Su Ying will come back and do it herself.
She said with tears in her eyes, "Suying, you can't do this."
Su Ying had no choice but to take a piece of paper to wipe away her tears.
"It's really nothing. I'm just playing it safe. The person I'm going to pick up this time is Qu Hui, my adoptive mother. The remnants of the Yuncheng base can still open the door, and they can barely send one person over. I suspect that they found my body in the ruins and are doing some experiments. After picking up my adoptive mother, I must... go back. After I came here, the space ability has actually always been there."
Su Ying said, "You said that Xue Hongdong died of natural causes in his previous life and lived for another ten years. I've seen his physical condition and he wouldn't live for more than three months. So why did he die of natural causes in his previous life?"
"And that Qu Liang became a wealthy man, but the Qu Liang I met was just an idiot, not a businessman. So is it possible that the people in Taoyuan used my corpse to cultivate some test subjects that can open doors, and the wealthy Qu Liang you met later was not the idiot Qu Liang you are now."
Qiao Lanlan's eyes widened, and she even forgot to cry. "That's impossible. Wasn't that villain who wanted to occupy Chen Wusheng's body wiped out by you using your supernatural power?"
Su Ying said, "It was only erased in this world. I won't know what happened in the Taoyuan world until I meet my adoptive mother. I have to prepare to go back. I have to prepare to... destroy my own body. I can't let the Xue family that you saw in your last life have a happy ending happen again."
