When Xiao Jiu, panting, ran to Blackwing Hale and saw a person lying in a snowdrift, barely alive, her nerves instantly tightened.
"Help...help..."
The person on the ground, covered in blood, struggled and shouted out in Mandarin.
He didn't know how long he had been lying there; the falling snow had already covered the traces of his previous movements.
If Blackwing and Hale hadn't run over here, she might not have noticed the person wearing stone-gray overalls.
Before he could finish speaking, he fainted.
After carefully checking his pulse, I fear he doesn't have long to live.
Excessive blood loss, coupled with the cold weather and lying here for so long, would lead to hypothermia, which is the most terrifying thing.
"We shouldn't stay here any longer; let's leave first."
Since he spoke Mandarin, Xiao Jiu brought him and the black dog into the space.
Japan's highest peak is Mount Fuji. Although there are many other mountains of varying sizes, they can only be described as small hills or even just mounds within the country.
She is currently located on an undeveloped hill in Yokohama.
Located in the suburbs, and with snow falling outside today, almost no one is out and about.
She was filled with questions about how this person got here and why.
Today is Friday. I originally planned to come to this mountain area for fun, so I didn't plan to come down the mountain.
After finding a secluded spot and entering the space, they began to provide first aid to the person with gunshot wounds.
Her space has professional medical equipment; taking off wet clothes, changing into dry cotton clothes, and covering herself with a quilt can temporarily alleviate the symptoms of hypothermia.
However, his blood loss and hypothermia were too severe, and his physical signs were not suitable for surgical removal of the bullet; the only option was to try to wake him up.
Perhaps because he had an unfinished mission, he miraculously woke up after Xiao Jiu fed him glucose water and warm water.
Although her face was still deathly pale, she was able to speak: "You... saved me?"
After saying that, he seemed to realize something and immediately switched languages, but it was clear that his Japanese was not authentic.
“Yes, I saved you,” Xiao Jiu suddenly spoke to him in her native language as he looked around.
For a moment, he thought he had returned to China: "You, are you also Chinese?"
"Let me ask you now. How did you get shot? How did you climb the mountain while wounded? Where are you going? Is this your stuff?"
Xiao Jiu only found five small rolls of film on him. The moment he saw the film, his pupils contracted sharply, and he reached out to grab it.
Having failed to catch the film, the man stared at her listlessly: "Little girl, you have no use for this. Give it back to me!"
"You think giving it back will make it useful? You probably don't realize your body is already on its last legs, you're not going to make it!"
The man then noticed that he was in a small consultation room. "Are you a doctor? Who brought me here?"
This is Xiao Jiu's private consultation room, which is similar to a regular clinic, with two tables, three consultation desks, and surrounded by shelves of medicines with both Chinese and Japanese labels. The air is filled with the smell of disinfectant.
This way, they can conceal the fact that this place is a warehouse.
"Never mind who brought you here, let me ask you first: your Japanese isn't very fluent, so how did you get to Kanagawa Prefecture in Japan?"
Yokohama City belongs to Kanagawa Prefecture.
They are currently in Yokohama's Naka Ward. Although it's a mountain, you can actually see the Seaside Bay Bridge if you walk down from there.
As a world-renowned port city, Yokohama boasts stunning sea views everywhere you look.
Seeing that he remained silent with his lips pursed, Xiao Jiu didn't press him, but instead asked, "Where in Northeast China are you from?"
She helped him up, handed him hot water, and had him lean against the wall. Then she began to talk at length about what she knew about Northeast China.
Surprisingly, they actually managed to get him to talk: "I'm from Tieling. At first, I was kidnapped and brought here as a heavy laborer, an illegal worker, and later..."
Xiao Jiu brought over a plate of dumplings: "Eat something and drink some soup first. These are mackerel dumplings that I made myself. Try them."
The man thanked them and ate slowly, savoring each bite, occasionally offering a word of praise. He was indeed starving, and the half-pound of dumplings was quickly devoured.
Xiao Jiu then handed over some dumpling soup: "You can't eat too much at once, have this to tide you over!"
He needed to eat something to have the strength to speak, and sure enough, after eating the original soup, his voice sounded a bit stronger.
"You were trying to pass on the intelligence, weren't you? But you were unfortunately discovered, and the people who covered your escape probably all died?"
As the man sat up straight, wary, he asked again, "Who exactly are you?"
"Of course I'm the same as you. The Japanese can send people to our country, but our country can't just do nothing!"
I'm a student at a military medical school. I was selected here so I can take the entrance exam for their medical school and work in their medical laboratory.
It seems that their people have infiltrated every industry; the middle-aged man in front of me looks like a migrant worker!
It's truly amazing that migrant workers can accomplish such a difficult task.
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me your background. As long as I hand over your belongings to my superior, they can still be sent back to China."
The journey might be a bit troublesome. You can't last more than three days.
Seeing that he still didn't believe in her, Xiao Jiu wouldn't stay here forever.
"Think it over carefully. Don't leave this room; there are buckets inside."
Just as she was about to leave, the person behind her suddenly called out to her: "Wait a minute, little girl, when you found me, was I the only one there?"
"Don't you know yourself? There's hardly anyone on the way up the mountain. I wouldn't have come here if I wasn't walking my dog."
They will definitely not encounter such unpleasant things.
Actually, she didn't want to care at all.
"Give me some paper and a pen. I'll write down an address for you. Please deliver the items to that address."
Xiao Jiu asked in surprise, "You believe me already?"
The man smiled bitterly, "What else can you do if you don't believe me? I'm going to die eventually. You speak fluent Mandarin and have very Chinese lifestyle habits."
Even the shoes you're wearing have traditional Chinese characteristics. If you can't even trust yourself, then who can you trust?
Xiao Jiu subconsciously looked down and realized that she was wearing the cloth shoes with multi-layered soles that her grandmother had made for her. She had changed into them as soon as she came in because they were comfortable.
Unexpectedly, he was quite observant, and most importantly, his handwriting was really good: "Your handwriting is beautiful."
"I escaped during the land reform before the founding of the People's Republic of China. My family used to be landlords. I attended a private school and studied abroad. I never expected that the organization would take notice of me because of this. Don't underestimate me just because my Japanese isn't very good. My Russian and English are quite good, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to enter the port. If my downline hadn't been exposed, I wouldn't have chosen to escape. Fortunately, there were people willing to cover for me and let me send out the intelligence."
