"Lieutenant Ogawa, there's been no news from the Toyota team for almost seven days. Have you investigated what the reason might be?"

Major Sanyo sat there, looking at the lieutenant in front of him, and said with a grim expression, "Such an important person has been missing for so long, and you didn't even know? Have you lost your minds?!"

"Sorry, we didn't notice either. They're probably busy with something right now!"

"Bullshit! For over a decade, haven't they been sending telegrams regularly to let us know they're fine and safe? Now you're telling me we've missed seven days? They send telegrams every five days! And now it's blocked? Tell me, why? Are you a pig-brain?"

"Sanyo threw the cup in his hand down and said with a grim face: 'Go and investigate. You must find out the truth.'"

"Hi!"

Lieutenant Ogawa turned around helplessly and left the office, leaving Major Sanyo with a cold expression.

"Someone, go and search the area to see if there's anything new."

"Hi!"

A Japanese orderly at the door immediately went down to make the arrangements.

Sanyang was angry for a while, then remembered something important.

He picked up the phone and dialed immediately.

"Hey, Miura, it's me!"

"What's matter?"

“Miura, we’re in trouble. The medicine that was supposed to come from Beiping can’t get there now. It was all sent to the front line. And hospitals in various places are also in short supply of medicine. So, there may be no medicine coming for a month.”

"We both know what would happen to the entire Changfeng County if there were no medicine. What can we do?"

"We can only try traditional Chinese medicine. We can try to buy some Chinese medicine from Chinese people. Otherwise, we will be in a lot of trouble, really."

"Sanyo, you've really given me a huge problem. From now on, surgeries and such will be in complete chaos, not to mention anything else."

"Also, we don't have any Western medicine. If other unexpected situations arise, it could be even more troublesome. So, we still need a batch of medicine to come over, even if it's just a small amount."

“I’m coordinating with people in other counties, but it’s proving to be too difficult.”

"You'll have to figure that out yourself. Really, I'm at my wit's end. I've already sent telegrams to Shanghai and other places, and they all say there's a shortage of medicine."

Sanyo was also in a real bind when he heard this, since without the medicine, the entire hospital was practically shut down.

"Sigh, I think we can try to get some money back from the Hefei headquarters! After all, the colonel was injured here last time and received effective treatment, so I believe he will approve some for us!"

"It's no use. The person has already returned to the Northeast. They're probably already there by now. No matter how hard you try, there's no way to get the medicine over here."

"This, this..."

Hearing this, Sanyo sighed, clearly not expecting that medicine would become such a problem for them, a curse they couldn't shake off.

"Alright, let's leave it at that for now. I'm hanging up now. I'm applying for medicine support from various places!"

"All right!"

Sanyo hung up the phone helplessly and could only sigh.

……

“Old Wu, He An has already confessed. He is indeed Japanese, and he has been in Changfeng since 22. He has been lying low here and has never left.”

"Sigh, these Japanese really planned to come to China and invade China long ago. It's hateful. But, have all the members of the group been confessed yet?"

"We've already confessed, but we haven't found these people. And it's not just us looking for them; another group of people, probably Japanese, are also looking for them. They should have discovered the disappearance."

"Alright, deal with He An. After all, he's no longer of any use. He was just there to gather intelligence, and his superior has also disappeared. Keeping him around is pointless."

"Yes!"

Watching his men leave, Lao Wu sat in the tailor shop, looking at the empty main road across the street, his expression becoming somewhat strange. "Number 03, who exactly told you that this person was Japanese? And where did the other members of the Toyota team go? Were they also taken care of by you?"

He tapped the table lightly, then his expression returned to calm.

He was waiting, waiting for this person to tell him the truth.

……

On the other side, Zhang Tianhao looked at Song Wen, who had lost all her strength, and sat on the edge of the bed, his expression showing a hint of doubt.

He still had to go over and interrogate the woman in a little while. Although he didn't know if it would be effective, he was already certain that this woman was likely a big fish.

Compared to Song Wen's methods, which only involved beatings and even torture, his methods were much more civilized.

It's because he studied traditional Chinese medicine; there are just too many intricacies involved.

Looking at Song Wen, who had already fallen asleep on the bed, a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he put on his clothes and shoes and went outside.

By this time, it was completely dark, and not only that, even the dogs outside had stopped barking.

The wind was howling, and the air was even colder.

I came to the courtyard, stood there, and felt the strong wind.

"Snowing!"

Suddenly, a chill fell on his face, allowing him to see the things in the aerial village clearly again, and his expression became strange.

"Alas, what a series of disasters!"

He sighed and then walked in another direction.

He leaped over the wall and disappeared outside.

Soon, he arrived at the foot of the safe house. Looking at the two people who were still unconscious, his face showed little expression, and even a hint of coldness.

He arrived at Nagawa Hideko's side and thrust the silver needle into her.

Hideko Nagawa, who was still unconscious, was suddenly awakened by the pain and let out a scream like that of a predator.

“Who, who…”

Zhang Tianhao then spoke fluent Japanese.

"Nagawa, tell me everything you know, or you know the consequences. I've lost all patience with you, really!"

Upon hearing the Japanese, Nagawa was about to say something, but when she heard Zhang Tianhao's question, she was completely stunned.

After all, she knew better than anyone what was going on with a Chinese person speaking such fluent Japanese.

"Looks like you don't want to explain yourself. Well then, let's play this game slowly!"

"You know my silver needles, one needle is ten times the pain, two needles are twenty times the pain!" With that, he inserted another silver needle, then took out a small twig and began to tap her body.

The intense pain drove Nagawa into a frenzy, screaming so loudly that the sound could have carried far if it weren't for the basement.

"Nagawa, I suspect you are a ninja, and only a ninja could endure such pain, but in front of me, it's all for naught and useless."

"Ahhh-"

Amidst countless screams, the entire basement reeked of various foul odors, making the poorly ventilated space particularly sensitive.

He stuffed an old cloth directly into her mouth before reaching the entrance, opening the basement passage to let in the outside wind, which carried away the stench and foul smell. (End of Chapter)
