Chapter 67 The Republic of China Completed Two-in-One
In the dim little room, the clock ticked and the sound of water flowed past.
Jiang Zhimei didn't last long in such an environment. Her eyelids closed heavily and she heard a vague question in her ears.
"What's your name?"
"Jiang...Zhi...Mei."
"How old?"
"Eight years old... No, that's not right... In my previous life... I lived to be forty-eight."
When they heard the word "previous life", everyone who was observing this side on the other side of the wall stood up.
The questioning continued inside the cabin.
"Tell me more about your past life."
When talking about her past life, Jiang Zhimei couldn't help but recall her experiences decades before her rebirth.
Her life at that time was much better than her current one. She was the treasure of her parents and brothers since she was born, and had never suffered any grievances since she was a child.
The only hardship she encountered in life was falling in love at first sight with her father's comrade-in-arms. She fought against the secular world and overcame obstacles for love, and finally successfully got together with her sweetheart.
She was so happy at that time that she happily wrote the love story of her parents and herself in a novel in the form of a memoir to share with everyone.
She thought they would live happily like this forever, so she gave the novel a perfect ending.
However, reality is not fiction, and the ending is completely opposite to what she wrote.
Recalling this, Jiang Zhimei closed her eyes and suddenly burst into tears, wailing like a real child: "Dad, Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong, he is a devil, he killed me, wuwuwu."
The hypnotist immediately calmed her down, acting as her parents and saying soothing words: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Tell mom and dad who killed you. Who was it?"
Jiang Zhimei was hiccuping and couldn't stop crying.
Who killed her? Recalling the scene before her death, she trembled with fear and almost woke up.
Seeing this, the hypnotist struck a copper bowl. With a deep and long buzzing sound, the person on the bed slowly calmed down.
"Who killed you? Who was he?"
"It was... it was Nancheng, my husband. He, he killed me."
Jiang Zhimei's tears flowed down again as she uttered the name that she loved and hated in her heart.
"Why did he kill you?"
"He...he's a spy!"
She never knew that the person closest to her was actually a Japanese spy.
If she hadn't suddenly decided to go back that day and discovered this secret by accident, it would probably have been kept in the dark forever.
But it was precisely because she knew the truth that she was suffocated to death by him after his true face was revealed.
She died in shock and disbelief, heartbroken, and determined not to forgive him even in her death.
But she didn't expect to be reborn forty years ago, when everything had not yet begun.
This time she won't be fooled by him again. She will trick him into falling in love with her and then dump him to get revenge.
Everyone who heard this "ambition": …………
The leader next door shook his head, and the interrogator continued to confirm the identity of the spy.
It is known that the other party is called Nancheng, a spy within the Fuso Deep Dive organization. He is a comrade-in-arms of Jiang Yu and appeared at the Jiang family on Jiang Zhimei's eighteenth birthday.
Based on this information, the special operations department began to investigate secretly and found many people with the same name, but none of them met the requirements.
What's even more strange is that according to Jiang Yu's own confession, he did not have a comrade named "Nancheng".
Not to mention comrades-in-arms, there is no one with this name among my friends in the past few decades.
The special operations department also found nothing, it seemed that the person "Nancheng" did not exist at all.
After several discussions, the matter was put on hold for the time being, and everyone's attention began to shift to the subsequent developments described by Jiang Zhimei.
Whether it exists or not, you can find out by using these to verify it.
As for the results of the verification, just look at the rapid development of Xinhua Country in the following ten years, and everything will be clear.
After ten years, Rong Zhen and his friends came to the capital again for three main reasons.
One reason is that their eldest daughter Zhuzhu was admitted to the graduate school of Capital University, and they want to send her to study there.
Secondly, the two twins also followed in their sister’s footsteps and were admitted to Capital University as undergraduates, and this time they came together to report for admission.
The third was the tenth anniversary of the founding of the New China, and the couple received an invitation to attend the celebration.
All three were major events, so Rongzhen's entire family went out and flew over.
Due to the couple's unusual identities, they were protected by a welcoming convoy and taken to the guesthouse as soon as they got off the plane.
Ten years ago, the Yingbin Hotel was a two- or three-story building. Ten years later, it has become a skyscraper. If you can't get used to it, you can also live in the Yingbin Garden, which is specially used to entertain important people. There are courtyard houses built and decorated in an ancient style.
Rongzhen and her family are used to living in garden villas in Shanghai and have no interest in living in courtyard houses. They specifically choose to live on the top floor of a skyscraper.
That height, that view, is like floating in the clouds, with most of the capital in sight, as if the world is at your feet.
That evening, they attended a welcoming banquet specially hosted by their leader. When asked how it felt to live in a skyscraper built by their leader, Rong Zhen and Jiang Yu both gave a thumbs-up and praised: "It's a great experience. Our motherland is strong!"
The leader's face showed a hint of pride, but he was very humble: "We have only just begun. There is still much work to be done. I only hope to live up to the wishes of our ancestors and the aspirations of the people."
Rong Zhen and Jiang Yu couldn't help but admire him and nodded heavily after hearing this.
Halfway through the banquet, everyone started to relax after getting to know each other, and people began to come to the couple one after another to toast and chat.
When it was the turn of a young man from a large compound who had some business dealings with Rong Zhen, he blushed and said, "President Xu, you are my idol."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yu glanced over indifferently, his gaze so cold that it made people's scalp numb.
The man shrank back, mustered up the courage, and tentatively asked, "So, could you and Commander Jiang be witnesses at my wedding?"
Jiang Yu turned his gaze away upon hearing this and continued talking to the person as if nothing had happened.
Rongzhen smiled, looking very easy to talk to. "Witness? You're getting married. Congratulations. When is it?"
The man heard that she might agree, and immediately showed his joy on his face. He said that the wedding would be the day after tomorrow, and the location would be in the xx government compound.
Rongzhen nodded in agreement. She knew the place and this was something she had planned when she met this person earlier.
Because Jiang Yu and the heroine's mother live there now, and the wedding date chosen by the groom is also a good day that she secretly asked a master to calculate for him.
That day was the heroine Jiang Zhimei’s eighteenth birthday, which couldn’t have been a better auspicious day.
Rong Zhen is different now than in the story, so it is naturally impossible for her to run to recognize Jiang Yu at that time like the original owner did, so she had thought of a solution early on.
Then she can take the opportunity to attend the groom's wedding and meet Jiang Yu who lives there by chance, and then recognize each other naturally to complete the remaining two tasks.
A day passed in a flash, and Rongzhen received a big red and gold-embossed invitation card personally delivered by the groom the night before the wedding.
On the wedding day, Rongzhen had not originally planned to bring her three children, but when they heard that there would be wedding banquets, the two little brats who had just reached adulthood and the older daughter who was eager to create chaos in the world and had already reached adulthood immediately became interested and insisted on going to the banquet with their parents.
So the family of five went with a few guards.
Since time was too tight and there was no time to prepare a wedding gift, Rongzhen simply gave a big red envelope as compensation for her "scheme" on the groom.
The groom's family lived in a government compound and his family background was not simple either. The wedding was very lively and lasted from morning till evening.
Rong Zhen and Jiang Yu had already completed their work as matchmakers, but they never left. The groom thought they were giving him face, but in fact, Rong Zhen was waiting for a secret signal.
Finally, as the sun was setting, the people she had arranged moved, and Rongzhen said goodbye to the host family in time.
The host warmly escorted them to the gate and was about to say goodbye when they happened to run into Jiang Yu's family who were returning with a birthday cake.
When Rongzhen saw them, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Yu didn't know her or Jiang Yu, but he knew that the person who could be treated like this by the groom's family must be no ordinary person. He was considering whether to take the opportunity to make friends with them when he heard his wife blurt out behind him: "It's you!"
Rong Zhen and others turned to look at them.
Even after many years, Jiang Yu still recognized their identities at a glance. He raised his eyebrows slightly, wanting to see what Rong Zhen was going to do.
Rongzhen didn't intend to do anything, but simply nodded and greeted the hostess's mother who recognized her: "Hello, Jiang Yu's middle school classmate, how are you?"
The heroine's mother looked a little old, and it was obvious that she had not had a happy life in recent years. When facing Rong Zhen, she couldn't help but feel defensive and vigilant, and a little bit uncomfortable and guilty.
Jiang Yu looked at her, then at Rong Zhen, and asked with confusion and a little excitement: "Do you know each other?"
Good to know him. Could it be that the benefactor of their family has come?
"Mom, who are they? Won't you introduce them to me?" Eighteen-year-old Jiang Zhimei looked at the people on the steps with bright eyes.
The heroine's mother didn't want to say.
Seeing that she seemed to really know Rongzhen, the groom's family helped introduce them: "These two are Chairman Xu and Commander Jiang from the south."
Jiang Yu had heard of them before, so he immediately went up to shake their hands warmly. "So it's you two, I've heard a lot about you."
Jiang Yu shook his hand, smiled and nodded: "I am Jiang Yu, and this is my wife Xu Xizhen."
Jiang Yu hadn't reacted to the name 'Xu Xizhen' yet and wanted to pull his hand out to hold hers, but Jiang Yu didn't let go and increased the strength in his hand. He almost screamed in pain and accidentally broke his grip, revealing an ugly face with his teeth bared.
Only then did Jiang Yu let him go with satisfaction.
Jiang Yu asked in confusion, "Excuse me, Commander Jiang, what do you mean by this?"
Rong Zhen smiled faintly and asked him, "Do you really not remember? Or did you develop amnesia early on and have forgotten who Xu Xizhen is?"
Xu Xizhen… Jiang Yu thought carefully, finally digging out the meaning of this name from the corners of his early memories. Then he looked at Rong Zhen with wide eyes, "You, you are the fiancée I arranged for you, the eldest daughter of the Xu family, Xu Xizhen?"
Rongzhen looked down at him, nodding and shaking her head.
"I'm Xu Xizhen, but I'm no longer your fiancée. We haven't seen each other for many years. You and I have both started families and have children. I didn't expect to meet you at this time."
Jiang Yu turned his head to look at her and put his hand silently on her waist to declare his sovereignty.
Jiang Yu didn't see it, and his anger quickly turned into guilt: "I, I've let you down. When I knew you were going to marry me, I didn't agree, but my parents insisted, so I had no choice. Who would have thought..."
Who would have thought that he and Bai Moli would suddenly be sent on a ship to study in Europe by a group of inexplicable guys.
It’s all because of the unpredictable world and the cruel fate.
Fortunately, his parents came to see him not long after he returned home. He learned from them that his fiancée had found another man, and he felt much better.
He never thought that they would meet today, old friends meeting, but not knowing each other.
After a few pleasantries, Rong Zhen's mind showed that the second story mission was completed, and the progress of the third mission soared. The purpose of this trip was finally achieved.
She put away her clothes and said goodbye to the groom's family again. Then, just as she was about to take Jiang Yu and the children to leave, Jiang Zhimei jumped out and stopped her.
"Wait, you can't leave!" Although she said "you", her eyes were actually always glued to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu frowned in disgust and gave him a cold look.
Jiang Zhimei shuddered, but still insisted on blocking the road and asked him, "Can I get to know you?"
Without waiting for Jiang Yu's answer, or perhaps she didn't need him to answer, she immediately introduced herself and said shyly: "I don't know if you feel it, but I think we are very compatible. You look a little familiar. Do you have another name?"
"What's your name?" Rong Zhen asked softly.
Jiang Zhimei was immersed in her own thoughts and did not notice that it was her who was asking the question. She thought and thought in a trance, and finally blurted out the name that was buried deep in her memory.
"Nancheng!"
"You should call me Nancheng, right?!"
She remembered, she remembered everything.
Ten years after being reborn and losing her memory, she finally remembered the person who left a deep impression on her when she saw him.
Rong Zhen's expression changed, and she suddenly turned to look at Jiang Yu, "Are you really Nancheng?"
"I'm not." Jiang Yu denied it flatly, pursing his lips in grievance: "She looks a little abnormal. Do you believe her or me?"
Rongzhen wanted to believe him, but it had happened twice. If he admitted his mistake last time, and the heroine confirmed it herself this time, it was impossible that he was still admitting his mistake, right?
Wait, that's not right. Even if he is the male protagonist Nancheng, this should be the first time they met and the female protagonist fell in love at first sight. He was clearly introduced as Jiang just now, and he didn't even say his name. How did the female protagonist know he was Nancheng?
Before Rongzhen could think about it, a group of plainclothes officers suddenly rushed out from the surroundings, walked up to them, showed their credentials and said, "Special Operations Department, please come with us."
Everyone present: “Ah?!”
What the hell? They were just chatting at the gate, how did they offend this group of people?
Rong Zhen and Jiang Yu also wanted to know. Since the two of them had special identities, it was impossible for the so-called Special Operations Department to take them away just like that.
Besides, their accompanying guards are no pushovers. No matter which department you are from, if you want to take away two heavyweights for no reason without the approval of your superiors, you are simply courting death.
Seeing that they refused to cooperate, the special operations team prepared to take forceful measures, but the guards drew their guns and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
After a few seconds of standoff, Rong Zhen and his team noticed something was wrong and came closer. More than ten people got out of the three cars to lend a hand, and they surrounded the special operations team with guns outside.
The situation became even more tense. Except for Rong Zhen's family who were already used to this kind of scene, the other two families were all frightened into silence. Even Jiang Zhimei, who was mentally ill and wanted to harass Jiang Yu, kept her mouth shut very wisely.
The captain of the special operations team knew that he had encountered a tough opponent, so he contacted his leader immediately without further ado.
He was able to contact them, and Rong Zhen and Jiang Yu were also able to contact them, and the matter was finally reported to the top leader.
The senior leader took time out of his busy schedule to personally inquire about the matter, and only then did Rong Zhen and his wife know the reason why they were found by the special operations team.
Nancheng is actually a Fuso spy?
When Rongzhen heard this inside story, she was stunned and thought to herself, how could it be possible? He is the male protagonist of the story.
In order to get rid of the suspicion of being a spy, Jiang Yu had to reveal his background.
His name was indeed Zhao Nancheng before he was sixteen, and he changed his name to Jiang Yu after leaving home at the age of sixteen. Both names have nothing to do with "Nancheng".
Rongzhen suddenly turned to him and gave him a stern look that said "go home and wait."
Jiang Yu touched his nose, turned around and told the leader about his actions in the years since he left home, to prove that he was not the spy Nancheng.
Everything he does has a traceable path. If you don't believe them, go ahead and check it out.
Due to his position and the importance of the area he was in charge of, the confidentiality level of this matter was raised to the highest level, and the speed of verification was increased several times.
Before the results came out, Rongzhen and her family were asked to stay on the skyscraper and not go out, and were guarded by professional personnel.
The night Rong Zhen returned, she grabbed Jiang Yu's ear and asked him, "Tell me, why did you lie to me that your name is not Nancheng?!"
Jiang Yu hugged her back and hips, folded her long legs around his waist, and said innocently, "I'm not lying to you. My name is really not Nancheng. I just used to be called Zhao Nancheng, which represents my painful past. Changing my name to Jiang Yu is my new life."
"Ah, you're still quibbling!" Rong Zhen wanted to twist his ears thirty times.
Jiang Yu said that he didn't, and said to her: "Look, that Nancheng is first of all a Fuso spy, right? You and I have known each other for so long, do you think I am?"
Rong Zhen, who was about to collapse and go crazy, paused, "You are definitely not a Fuso spy, I am sure of this."
After being together for so many years, she wouldn't be unable to tell the difference.
Jiang Yu spread his hands. That was it. At most, he was unlucky to have the same former name as that person.
Rong Zhen hugged his neck and snorted coldly: "Okay, even if you are not him, there is nothing to hide about your background. Why did you lie to me?"
Jiang Yu explained softly, "It's because you reacted so strongly to 'Nancheng'. I'm worried that knowing about it will affect our relationship."
And what she said about the conflict made him even more afraid to let her know. After all, it was all the abandoned past, so what did it matter whether she knew it or not? What was more important to them was the future.
Rongzhen chose to believe him for the time being and wait for the results of the investigation from the top leader.
If Jiang Yu is really the male protagonist Nancheng...
This assumption is totally untrue. First of all, Jiang Yu cannot be a Fuso spy!
But if it wasn't him, how could Jiang Zhimei fall in love with him at first sight and recognize him again after losing her memory of rebirth due to hypnosis?
Rongzhen couldn't figure it out. After struggling for a week, the investigation results from the top leader were finally released.
The wind leaves a sound when it passes, and the wild geese leave traces when they fly. In front of the state machinery, there are some things that cannot be investigated, as long as you don't want to investigate them.
"Comrade Jiang Yu is indeed not the spy Nancheng." The leader's straightforward conclusion made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, given his current status, if he were really a spy, how much turmoil would that cause?
Rongzhen felt relieved and finally gave someone a good face.
Jiang Yu himself remained as steady as a rock, and in fact, he also let go of the heavy stone that had been hanging in his heart.
He was sure that he was not the spy Nancheng, but he could not prevent others from framing him, so it would be best if he could find out the truth and prove his innocence.
But the big boss changed the subject and added another but.
"However, the spy Nancheng in Jiang Zhimei's memory should be impersonating Jiang Yu. This involves a counterfeit scheme by Fusang in the country back then."
The so-called "passing off pearls as fakes" means that during the Republic of China period, Fuso deliberately used "its own people" to secretly replace Chinese people, especially some important personnel in the Red and White parties, in order to steal intelligence and disrupt the internal affairs of the two parties.
After investigation, it was found that when Jiang Yu was captured by the Fuso agency and taken to the sanatorium, not only did the White Party want to use him as a pawn and stepping stone to implement their infiltration plan, but Fuso also wanted to replace him with someone else.
Assuming that Jiang Yu failed to escape that time, the Fuso plan was successful, and the "Jiang Yu" who reappeared in the public eye had to return to the capital because of the mission, and recognized Master Zhao as Nancheng, then everything that happened in Jiang Zhimei's memory seemed to be explained.
Jiang Yu is indeed not the spy Nancheng, but the spy Nancheng impersonated Jiang Yu in the world in Jiang Zhimei's memory.
This is the final investigation result of this incident.
Everyone's face flushed and they were in a trance after listening to it. They felt that it was more exciting than the story collections sold in bookstores.
Who would have thought.
Fortunately, Jiang Yu managed to escape at that time and joined forces with the Red and White Parties to fight back against Fuso, otherwise they would have suffered such a huge loss now.
The senior leader said thankfully, "Comrade Jiang Yu, I want to thank you. If it weren't for you, we might not have thought that Fusang actually had such a plan. There may be other spies hiding in the organization. You need to keep this matter confidential for now and announce it after all the pests have been cleared out."
Jiang Yu promised to keep his mouth shut, but he didn't take credit for it. Instead, he looked at Rong Zhen with a gentle gaze and said with the same gratitude, "Thanks to my lover, I was able to escape so smoothly back then. Without her, I might not be the one facing you today."
It can't be him, it can only be that spy Nancheng.
Everyone shudders at the thought.
Rongzhen shuddered. Fortunately, Jiang Yu was not Nancheng. She never expected that the male protagonist of the story would be a spy.
The story only states that the rift between the heroine's parents has been completely resolved, and the heroine and her new husband begin a happy life. This ending seems beautiful, but who would have thought that outside of the story, the heroine discovered that her husband had been secretly killed.
Jiang Yu immediately noticed her strangeness and took off his coat and put it on her. "Are you cold?"
"No." Rong Zhen shook her head and subconsciously leaned into his arms.
The senior leader looked at the loving couple and smiled knowingly: "Of course, Comrade Xu is also a good comrade. On behalf of the organization, I thank you."
Rongzhen waved her hand and said no, she was just trying to save her man at that time and it had nothing to do with other people.
When Jiang Yu heard this, the corners of his mouth curved up and the smile in his eyes deepened.
Now the truth is revealed and everything is settled.
