So, [Lucky Moment], start!
Show me the power of the system.
Suddenly, the green mist dissipated, the wind stopped, and the sky became clear.
Her mind, which was a little hot due to anxiety, felt a little cool. She calmed her mind and, guided by an inexplicable feeling, quickly found a few people whose expressions were slightly off.
Although they carried briefcases similar to others, they subconsciously placed them away from vital areas, which showed that the contents were probably not documents.
Out of the corner of her eye, she also saw an inconspicuous thin line sticking to the crack of the table under the podium, and several people standing nearby had cigarette boxes and matches in their pockets, looking particularly dangerous.
He Ruixue no longer hesitated, walked up to the head of the security department, and said a few words to him.
The other party's expression instantly became stern, with a hint of murderous aura, "Damn it, you haven't even been hurt by me on the battlefield, and you dare to mess with me again."
He immediately waved his hand and asked a few people to control the people pointed out by He Ruixue. They forcibly took off the kettles on their waists and poured out the contents. Sure enough, they were full of black gunpowder.
There was nothing unusual in these people's briefcases when they opened them, but their lunch boxes were filled with cylindrical earthen explosives. Some people were even bolder and hid a few iron lumps in their armpits that they had obtained from somewhere. These were the grenades used to fight the Japanese in the past.
All these things were searched out in public, causing an uproar among the crowd.
The leader above stopped talking and looked at the audience with a frown. The secretary hurried to report the situation. He frowned and planned to walk down from the stage.
"Don't move!"
The head of the security department ordered everyone near the podium to be dismissed, and he himself led the way by turning over several wooden boards. He Ruixue was not mistaken, there were also explosive packs stuck under the boards, and judging by the weight, it was estimated that everyone around the podium would be blown to pieces.
The whole venue was in an uproar with clamor. Some people subconsciously wanted to run away, but they were all controlled by the police.
The deputy mayor stepped forward to take charge of the situation. He first asked everyone to calm down, then formed teams to search each other's bodies, separating men and women, and checking the soles of their heels.
During the search, he learned that the explosives were discovered by a young female comrade. He called her over and asked kindly, "This young comrade has performed a great service. The enemy spies are truly omnipresent and nearly caused a disaster. This time they acted covertly and hid the explosives very well. How did you discover them?"
He Ruixue knew she would be questioned and had already prepared a response. "My family came to see me. They said my neighbor handed me a letter with words they couldn't understand. They thought I forgot some documents I needed for the meeting at home, so they asked someone to rush to deliver it to me."
She handed the letter to the secretary standing beside her. "Luckily, I still remembered what I learned in high school. I half-guessed and half-understood what I read. I realized the seriousness of the situation and rushed back."
The deputy mayor and the people around him studied the contents of the letter, but found no other clues except the order. Instead of being disappointed, they looked at her with appreciation.
"Decisive, bold, and careful, you're a good comrade. You're an employee of the Second Department Store, right? Han Jiye, you've got a new talent under your command."
The leader of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce followed closely behind, his face benevolent. "Even if the average person received the letter, without your keen eyes, it would be difficult for them to discover where they hid the items. They might even be afraid of being held responsible and only dare to act wisely after the event... Our cadre team needs comrades like you who are bold and responsible, brave and resourceful."
Secretary Han Jiye smiled and nodded, as if he was being praised as his own nephew. "Despite Comrade He's young age, he is very capable. He was a level 6 clerk right after graduation and is considered an outstanding cadre in our unit."
No one would reveal at this time that He Ruixue was not a regular cadre and was just doing a temporary job. Moreover, even if she was not one before, she had made such great contributions and was recognized and praised by several leaders. Wouldn't it be easy for her to join the establishment in the future?
The exchange meeting ended hastily, and those who were confirmed innocent were released. He Ruixue was unable to participate in the remaining interrogation and investigation.
I only heard that even the nearby military district was alarmed, and several hideouts were destroyed along this clue. In addition to those in the meeting venue that day, more than a dozen spies and developed spies were also captured.
As the person who delivered the letter to He Ruixue, Sun Laiyi naturally could not escape. Several people in military uniforms took her away without saying a word.
People in the yard started talking again. Old man Sun didn't dare to say a word and just said that what she did had nothing to do with him. Zhou Erya kept yelling and cursing, while Sun Jinbao was confused and just ran to Sun Laiyi's room to look for delicious food.
Because the two might need to confront each other face to face, He Ruixue also sat near the interrogation room.
Sun Laiyi could be vaguely heard insisting that she knew nothing about it and that someone had deliberately framed her. She also turned the tables and said that He Ruixue was the spy, who wanted to take root deeper, so she betrayed her companions and put the blame on her.
The military officials naturally wouldn't believe her. "Alright, we've already apprehended most of the enemy spies, and several have confessed their accomplices. Comrade He Ruixue isn't on the list we have. As for you, we're still unsure. We want to know where you got this information from."
Sun Laiyi wouldn't say she heard this in her past life, and quickly shook her head, "I found the letter. I didn't recognize the words on it, so I thought it belonged to He Ruixue, so I wanted to return it to her. After all, she's the only one in our courtyard who knows foreign languages, and she's so mysterious every day that no one knows what she's busy with."
Even at this time, he still didn't forget to throw dirty water on her. He Ruixue snorted coldly and continued listening.
"You're still trying to quibble. Someone in your yard saw you go to the library. We asked the people there, and they all said you were reading foreign language books. And then you bought a stack of used newspapers and books at the scrap yard. Why don't you tell the truth now?"
He slammed the table, and the murderous aura he brought from the battlefield poured out. In his previous life, Sun Laiyi didn't dare to act rashly in front of the judicial authorities, let alone these military personnel who had actually participated in the battle.
He shuddered. "I, I heard it from someone. One time, I was passing through an alley and heard two people talking about some activities and some orders. I stayed to listen for a while, and that was the content of the letter. As for the rest, I don't know anything."
After that, no matter how the other party asked, she knew nothing. Now it is a new society, and suspects will not be tortured. At most, they will starve her for a few meals and constantly put her under psychological pressure.
But people nowadays are used to being hungry. The heroine comes from the future, so her psychological endurance is naturally stronger than that of ordinary people. She knows that refusing to admit it is the best choice. If it is revealed that she is reborn, she will be caught and sliced into pieces, which would be the end of her.
For three whole days, she didn't reveal any useful information, only saying that she heard it from someone, but she didn't know who told her.
In the end, the military felt that she had concealed the truth and was an accomplice of the enemy, and planned to charge her with espionage.
Before she was convicted, something unexpected happened. A suspected high-ranking spy who was arrested spoke out, and a more detailed list was found, on which Sun Laiyi's name was indeed not.
At the same time, someone confessed that he had revealed a lot of information when he was communicating with someone in an alley. I think it was exposed at that time.
