Shuo Yu looked at the young lady in front of him. She was really young. In fact, if she admitted that she was following him, he would not do anything to her. He was not a bad person.
"Well, miss, you're not following me, but I'd like to invite you to have a cup of coffee with me. Are you free?"
"What do you want to do?"
Sun Yan frowned, her face alert, one hand reaching for the pistol at her waist. If the enemy suddenly attacked, she would kill him right here and there.
Shuo Yu looked at the defensiveness in the other's eyes and the tense limbs, like a snow wolf cub ready to pounce, and smiled.
"Please believe that I really don't mean any harm. It's just that it's going to snow soon, and I don't want a beautiful lady like you to suffer with me in the snow. What do you think?"
Shuo Yu approached the other person and finally released his hand. He said this close to the other person's ear, then used his other hand to remove the pistol hidden in the other person's waist and put it in his own pocket. He smiled and stretched out his hand, making an invitation.
"Come on, it's going to snow soon, and I think you'd love a cup of hot cocoa."
Sun Yan didn't know what hot cocoa was, but she knew she had no power to fight back against this man.
One hand reluctantly rested on the hand that Shuoyu extended, and looked at Shuoyu with angry eyes, causing Shuoyu to touch his nose a little embarrassedly.
He brought this girl who appeared out of nowhere to a coffee shop that looked like it was decorated in a Western style. He found a seat in a corner and ordered two cups of hot cocoa. Drinking something hot when it was cold was very comfortable.
While waiting for the drinks to be served, Shuo Yu set up a small soundproofing array to prevent the young girl opposite him from saying anything without thinking. There was really no one around, no matter where she came from.
Shuoyu sat on a bench in the coffee shop, looking at the girl opposite him, and spoke in a friendly manner,
"Can you tell me now? Miss, where are you from? What do you want from me?"
"Who are you?"
Sun Yan looked at the man in front of her. She had never heard of such a person coming here. It was as if he suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Didn't your teachers or your parents teach you to introduce yourself before asking someone a question?"
"Stop talking nonsense and give me back my things."
Shuo Yu looked at the hand stretched out towards him with a bit of amusement. The palm of the other party's hand, the knuckles and the fingers had calluses from holding a gun. He was a soldier, a young soldier.
He changed to a comfortable position. Sometimes it is fun to tease children.
"Now the thing is in my hands. It's up to me to decide whether to return it to you or not. But you can rest assured that I'm not a bad guy. If I were a bad guy, I would have shot you to death the moment I got your gun. It wouldn't be difficult. The place we were just in was a blind spot and no one would have discovered it for a while. It would just be a matter of exerting force, right?"
Hot cocoa was served, Shuo Yu reached out and picked up his cup and started drinking it. He had spent money on it, so it would be a waste if he didn't drink it.
"What do you mean? Are you changing the subject? Why do you know Liang Ji? Why did you go there? What's your purpose? What else do you know?"
"Stop, stop, stop. You have too many questions, Miss. I have to answer them one by one, right?"
Shuoyu looked at the large glass window on the right, at the fluffy snowflakes floating outside, put down the cup in his hand,
"First, I went to Liang Ji because a mother asked me to find her son. Her son has been missing for four or five days. His name is Ma Shuan. I wonder if you know him?"
"...Are you telling the truth? Did Sister Ma really ask you to come?" Sun Yan muttered softly. Ma Shuan was one of their liaisons. He was captured by the Japanese along with the captain a few days ago.
Shuo Yu spread his hands to show his helplessness. The girl in front of him was not very old, but she was quite suspicious. However, he also understood that nowadays, a person would like to have several identities. If you are an undercover, then I am the undercover of the underdog. If you are the underdog of the underdog, then I am the underdog of the underdog of the underdog. Maybe in the end, we will find that we are all the same people.
Thinking of this, he recalled the various anti-Japanese dramas he had watched with his grandmother when he was a child. He drank the hot cocoa in the cup in one gulp, exhaled a breath of hot air, and looked at the girl sitting opposite him who had not eaten a single bite.
"You can try it, it's delicious."
"...Are you a traitor or someone from that faction?"
"So, female comrade, are you a guerrilla, or a member of the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army?"
"You!" Sun Yan didn't know when she had revealed herself with that sentence. Her pupils shrank and she looked at Shuo Yu with alertness, but on the surface she pretended to be calm.
"Alright, alright, calm down. Sometimes people's eyes can tell me a lot of things you don't want to say. I just saw it in your eyes. You haven't learned your skills yet. Why did your teacher let you out? Is it to carry out a mission?"
Shuo Yu felt that the other person was too young and a little clumsy, but what really told him the identity of the person in front of him was her eyes. She had a pair of fiery young eyes like Xiao Yugong. Otherwise, when she saw the other person for the first time, this unfortunate girl would have fainted at the entrance of an unknown alley.
"I...I believe you. No matter what other intentions you have, you are a very powerful person."
Sun Yan leaned her back against the back of the chair and relaxed a little. She had already been completely exposed by the person opposite her, so there was no point in hiding anything.
