Where is An Moxue at this moment?
Nakagawa
After investigating everything about Commander Yang's family and making arrangements for the follow-up, An Moxue took a car to Zhongchuan. If she waited for the results there, she wouldn't have time to deal with the Tang family in Zhongchuan. An Moxue didn't have time to investigate who was instigating the Tang family, but she couldn't let them go either.
It's necessary to take some measures to dampen their spirits and weaken their strength.
Before leaving Kyoto, An Moxue dressed herself up as a Red Guard, and a male one at that.
Even the letter of introduction was copied from the village's, with the address and name rewritten, the seal made from a radish, and the address fake.
An Moxue got off the train, dressed in a green military uniform with a red armband on her arm, and swaggered into Nakagawa's cabinet committee.
Upon seeing a group of Young Pioneers in the cabinet committee, he took the initiative to greet them: "Hello comrades, I'm from Kyoto. I've just arrived in your esteemed place and have come here specifically to find our like-minded partners, get to know each other, and make progress together."
One of the somewhat arrogant young men asked, "Who are you? You think you know me just because you say so? Who do you think you are?"
An Moxue asked cheerfully, "Comrade, what's your name? I'm seventeen this year. I wonder who's older between us? How about I treat you to a meal? Consider it an introduction. You can order whatever you like, but you have to eat it all, don't waste any."
Seeing that she wasn't angry at his words, the arrogant man said rather irritably, "Tang Shu, when you said you were treating us to dinner, did you mean all of us?"
"That must be everyone! Comrade, we're so destined to meet, we even share the same surname, Tang! Maybe we were family five hundred years ago!"
"Is that so?" The arrogant man softened his attitude.
"Yeah, who's older between us?"
Tang Shu said irritably, "Of course I'm older."
An Moxue pressed her advantage, saying, "Then I'll shamelessly call you Brother Shu. Don't worry, Uncle, if you ever go to Kyoto, I'll protect you. In that area, mentioning my name still carries weight. How shall we address you, brothers?"
Tang Shu was speechless now, so he began a series of introductions. After he finished, An Moxue waved her hand and said, "Comrades, let's go eat. Let's eat and chat."
Inside the restaurant, a group of Young Pioneers were eating and drinking heartily, making a ruckus. When they saw An Moxue generously treating them, they started chatting with her.
During the meal, she became acquainted with the group of Red Guards and learned some information from them. Because Tang Shu was there, they all fawned over him, which showed his status among them. She also indirectly learned some information about the Tang family.
An Moxue spent three days mingling with these Red Guards, using her identity as a Red Guard to investigate the layout of the Tang family's residence and the times when people came and went.
The advantage of dressing up as a Red Guard is that you get to know a group of Red Guards, and it won't seem so abrupt to go looking for Tang Shu with the other Red Guards. After all, it's perfectly normal for like-minded people to be together.
This made her investigation go exceptionally smoothly.
Based on the information Zhang Jing gave her, she already had a preliminary plan.
Every night, An Moxue would make medicine in her space. She had gathered enough information that most of the Tang family members lived together in groups, and there were a few exceptions. An Moxue didn't have that much time this time, so she might have to let them go.
Their settlement mainly consisted of more than a dozen wells. An Moxue planned to put some bone-corroding and tendon-severing powder in each well. This medicine had a drawback: it was only effective for people who practiced martial arts. The higher the martial arts skill, the more obvious the effect. It had no effect on ordinary people without martial arts skills, so An Moxue was not afraid of harming innocent people. In any case, that area had been inhabited by people with the surname Tang for generations.
On the fourth night after An Moxue arrived in Zhongchuan, when it was late at night, she avoided everyone at the guesthouse, dressed in black, and rode her bicycle to the Tang family's location. For half an hour, she didn't miss a single well.
And so, An Moxue stayed in Zhongchuan for another day until she heard news that someone in the Tang family was sick. Only then did she board the train and leave Zhongchuan.
What she didn't know was that if she had left a day later, she might not have had such a smooth journey.
Because the medicine was added to the well, the well water absorbed and diluted its effects, which is why the symptoms exhibited by the Tang family martial arts practitioners varied in severity.
By the time the Tang family realized that most of their family members were in trouble, An Moxue was already in Kyoto.
By the time they determined it was drug poisoning, An Moxue was already on the train back to the North.
While the Tang family was still frantically searching for someone, An Moxue couldn't suppress her good mood on the train.
She never expected that Commander Yang's son from his ex-wife would be so powerful, filing a formal complaint against Commander Yang's family and severing ties with him. This resulted in Commander Yang's entire family, young and old, being sent to a farm in Northwest China. They wouldn't be able to return until the reforms were over, and even then, they might not be able to come back!
She originally thought that the rest of the Yang family would be dismissed from their posts, and his wife and grandson would be sent to a farm, which would be the worst outcome. She never expected that even Commander Yang could not be saved. This made her realize once again the severity of the situation, and that she must hide her tail and behave herself.
She had been out for more than ten days, and the further north she went, the colder the weather became, but it did not dampen her eagerness to go home.
As soon as An Moxue got off the train in the morning, the howling north wind and swirling snowflakes hit her face, feeling icy cold that seeped into her bones. This finally gave An Moxue a sense of peace.
She was carrying a small, tattered bag, looking exactly like the older sister she had when she met Er Gouzi at the black market.
An Moxue used virtual identities the entire way from where she went to where she came from. In this day and age, it's too difficult to investigate her.
In this cold weather, how can you not go to a state-run restaurant for a hot meal!
When they arrived at the restaurant, An Moxue ordered a table full of dishes, all of which were her favorites: sweet and sour pork, cabbage and pork with vermicelli, chicken stew with mushrooms, plus two ounces of sauerkraut and pork dumplings, all authentic northern dishes.
Despite the long journey, An Moxue ate with great relish, much to the envy of the other diners.
Whose spendthrift wife is this? With such a big mouth, isn't she afraid of bursting her stomach?
An Moxue didn't care what others thought. She ate meat in large mouthfuls and drank soup in large bowls. After finishing, she ordered more dishes to take away, leaving behind several envious and jealous stares. She swaggered out of the state-run restaurant.
She checked the time, walked to a secluded spot, stored the packed food in her spatial storage, and headed towards Er Gouzi's location.
Er Gouzi was overjoyed to see An Moxue arrive; she was a lucky charm, and he had to treat her well.
"Big sister, why are you going out in this heavy snow?" Er Gouzi warmly poured An Moxue a cup of hot tea.
An Moxue was surprised to see the fine tea, took a sip, and said, "Little Golden Pot, you've got some in stock!"
"Big sister, you're an expert! A friend brought some back for me from the south. If you like, I can share some with you later."
"No need. I drink tea, but I don't particularly like it. It's fine with me whether I have it or not. You can keep it and enjoy it slowly! Have you prepared the goods I ordered last time?"
"Ready? When would you like to make the deal, eldest sister?"
"There are still more than ten wild boars tonight."
Upon hearing this, Er Gouzi immediately beamed with joy, unable to stop smiling. With his eldest sister's arrival, good things were sure to follow.
