“Where are you going?”
A black shadow stopped the door opener and kicked him back into the house. The knife in his hand was placed on the door-opener’s neck.
“Aiyo, aiyo, please spare my life. I remembered that I didn’t feed the horses. I have to go to the backyard to feed the horses.”
The person who was kicked down hurriedly begged for mercy. It turned out to be the inn’s waiter.
“You’re not allowed to go.”
It was the people in the thin man’s house who stopped him. He stopped the waiter in the house and did not allow him to go out.
Su Qing sprinkled some knockout powder on them and knocked them out before returning to her room.
Inside the house, Zhong Yong and the guard, Little Ding, anxiously awaited her. When they saw Su Qing return, they hurried over to welcome her.
“Master, we’ve asked around.”
The guard, Little Ding, told Su Qing what he and Zhong Yong had heard.
“The fishermen said that the Japanese would come ashore at the North Beach every time they came.”
“When was the last time they were here?”
Su Qing asked them. Knowing the time of their last visit, she could calculate the time of their next visit.
“It’s been twelve days. They’ll be here in three days.”
Little Ding and Zhong Yong told her everything they had heard.
“Alright.”
She knew the exact time, but she still didn’t know the secret code. The ship was in the sea, and the pirates would escape if they saw the situation was not good.
Su Qing decided to ask for the secret code and time of contact.
“Leave only the thin one behind. Kill the others.”
Su Qing ordered her guards, Xiao Ding and Zhong Yong, to go next door and kill everyone.
The thin man was left behind because he was the leader of this group of guards and should know the secret code.
Soon, the sounds of fighting came from the next room. Su Qing sat in the room and waited. Soon, the guard Ding brought the thin man over. The others were all killed by Zhong Yong’s twin hammers. The corpses were all dissolved with Corpse Dissolving Powder, leaving no traces.
The interrogation drug that she brought back from Miao Jia was effective. In less than half a cup of tea’s time, the thin man confessed everything.
Su Qing knew how cunning the Japanese were. She locked the thin man up first and went upstairs to interrogate Lanting and the envoy. This time, she no longer pretended and restored her original appearance.
Lanting saw Su Qing after removing the knockout powder. She widened her eyes in shock, and then her eyes flashed with deep hatred.
“It’s you?”
“Yes, it’s me. You didn’t expect this, did you?”
Su Qing looked at Lanting with a cold smile. Last time, she only wanted her legs, but the Japanese were just so cheap and wanted to die.
“You vicious woman, giving birth to a child will…”
Lanting wanted to curse Su Qing to die from childbirth, but before she could say anything, she was slapped by Jiang Yuyan. She saw stars, her ears buzzed, and her mouth was filled with the sweet taste of blood.
“Feed her.”
Su Qing couldn’t be bothered to listen to her nonsense and asked Jiang Yuyan to feed the medicine to Lanting.
“What are you doing? What are you doing? I’m not eating. I’m not eating…”
Lanting shouted nervously. She tried her best to shrink into the bed, but Jiang Yuyan pulled her over roughly. A vicious light flashed in Lanting’s eyes. She pulled out the dagger hidden under the pillow and stabbed it at Jiang Yuyan’s heart.
She wanted to trick Su Qing, but she didn’t fall for it. Jiang Yuyan didn’t expect her to have a knife. She watched as the knife stabbed towards her heart. The knife stopped just as it was about to stab her heart.
“Ah!”
Su Qing broke Lanting’s wrist. She raised her head and let out a shrill scream. Jiang Yuyan took the opportunity to feed her the medicine.
Lanting almost choked to death on the dried medicinal noodles. She lay on the bed and coughed violently, tears streaming down her face.
“Tell me, when will the ship pick you up? What’s the secret code?”
Su Qing’s cold voice rang in Lanting’s ears. Lanting glared at Su Qing angrily,
“Don’t even think about me…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lanting was tortured by a sharp pain and rolled on the bed. Lanting had been trained in torture and thought that ordinary punishments could not do anything to her, but this kind of pain was unbearable. Thousands of ants drilled into her heart, and her bones were in unbearable pain.
After a while, Lanting looked like she had been fished out of the water. Her eyes were popping out of her head from the pain. She didn’t look like a beauty at all.
“Secret code, time, location, and your plans for the Central Plains.”
Su Qing’s voice seemed amplified and reached Lanting’s ears. She shook her head hard and cursed at Su Qing, trying to goad her into killing her.
But it was useless. In front of absolute strength, could you still curse? The moment she opened her mouth, her mute acupoint was pressed. It hurt her for two hours. In the end, she couldn’t take it anymore. She rolled to the ground and crawled to Su Qing’s feet to kowtow. Her spirit had already collapsed.
Su Qing unlocked her mute acupoint. This time, Lanting confessed, but what she said was different from what the thin man downstairs said. Su Qing added something to her and let her roll around in the room alone.
Su Qing brought Jiang Yuyan into the room next door. The envoy and the other man were still unconscious, so they had no idea what had happened in the inn.
Su Qing woke up the envoy and duplicated the situation. In less than an hour, the envoy confessed everything.
The envoy said the same thing as the thin man. They had to wait here for three days. Firstly, they had to wait for the assassin who attacked Su Qing to return. Secondly, they had to wait for the date of the ship before they could leave.
Su Qing knew the secret code for the meeting. She had a bold plan.
The next day, the sun rose early. The waiter lay on the ground for the entire night. When he woke up, he touched his neck first. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he touched his head. He looked at the room where the thin man lived with lingering fear.
“Buddy, boil some hot water for me.”
Jiang Yuyan exited the room and instructed the waiter to boil water.
The waiter nervously replied and ran to the kitchen to boil water. Seeing that there were only Su Qing and Jiang Yuyan, the waiter was slightly stunned. He remembered that those two people came back last night. When did they leave?
Last night, Zhong Yong and the guard Ding were sleeping upstairs. Lanting and the envoy were tied up and thrown to the ground. Su Qing did not give them the antidote. Lanting and the envoy experienced hell that night.
When they woke up in the morning, they had already fainted from the pain and no longer had the strength to do anything.
Su Qing had a good night’s sleep. She and Jiang Yuyan each had two mattresses and a blanket. They woke up in high spirits in the morning.
After the waiter delivered the hot water, he went to open the door. When he opened the door, he looked nervously at the thin man’s room. When he saw no one coming out to stop him, he heaved a sigh of relief and ran out.
Su Qing asked the guard, Little Ding, to follow them and see where the shop assistant went.
After washing up, she and Jiang Yuyan walked out of the inn and strolled around the streets. There weren’t many shops that were open in the morning. There was a wonton stall by the roadside. Su Qing and Jiang Yuyan took a bite and returned three portions for Zhong Yong. He was big and could eat a lot.
When Su Qing returned to the inn, he saw that the shopkeeper had arrived. He was standing at the entrance of the inn, fuming.
Seeing Su Qing and Jiang Yuyan return, the shopkeeper greeted them warmly.
“Sir, you’re up so early!”
“Yes.”
Su Qing nodded and was about to enter the house. When she saw the guard, Ding, return, he signaled with his eyes that he had something to report.
Su Qing quietly brought Jiang Yuyan back to the house. Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves could be heard on the street. Su Qing stopped and looked outside..
