The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

How could you forget those two people?

Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu exchanged a glance.

Wu Jiaojiao chuckled awkwardly, "Brother Ling, why bother others? Isn't it obvious? Look at my face, it's still swollen."

Pointing at Yao Yu, he said, "I even have eyewitnesses. In Brother Ling's eyes, am I really someone you can't trust?"

Ling Wenchen silently poured a cup of hot tea for Jiang Yuyan, who was sitting next to him, and then placed the dried jujubes and plums he had prepared earlier in front of her.

These tender gestures, made as if they were serving ancestors, almost stunned Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu on the other side.

Seeing Jiang Yuyan eat whatever Ling Wenchen gave her, Wu Jiaojiao was so angry that she almost cursed on the spot. She felt jealous and envious.

She, Wu Jiaojiao, is Ling Wenchen's fiancée. They grew up together since childhood. Why can't he see her presence?

Jiang Yuyan was also at a loss as to what was going on. The scene before her was completely different from what she had imagined, and she dared not make any rash moves. She could only do whatever Ling Wenchen told her to do.

She'll eat if you give her food, drink if you give her water, and she absolutely won't look at anything she shouldn't, though she'll keep her ears perked up.

Even though two burning gazes were directed at her from the other side, Jiang Yuyan ignored them and continued eating and drinking as usual.

Wu Jiaojiao was even more furious at her attitude, so angry that she was trembling all over, but she couldn't do anything in front of Ling Wenchen.

A short while later, the two soldiers who had been protecting Jiang Yuyan arrived.

Ling Wenchen: "Tell me everything that happened to Wu Jiaojiao today, everything, including the people who were with her."

Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu: "!!!!"

When the two soldiers saw that they were there, they immediately understood what was going on and told them everything without saying a word, including Wu Jiaojiao's bullying attitude.

In a flash,

A bone-chilling cold filled the entire office, frightening Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu so much that their faces turned pale.

Ling Wenchen snorted coldly, "Comrade Yanzi was sent down from above to assist us in completing the mission. They specifically instructed us to protect Comrade Yanzi's life and safety. I thought I did a good job."

Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu gasped for breath, their hearts pounding with anxiety.

"I never expected this. We hadn't even seen the enemy yet, but we were almost ruined by our own people. Comrade Yanzi, what do you think is the best way to handle this and give you the best explanation?"

Before Jiang Yuyan could even speak, Wu Jiaojiao objected, roaring furiously.

"But this woman slapped me for no reason. Shouldn't she be punished? Does she think she can do whatever she wants just because she has connections?"

Jiang Yuyan chuckled, interrupting her roar.

"Don't you remember why I hit you? If it weren't for your foul mouth, as a civilized person, I wouldn't even dare to listen to you say that. I really don't know where you got the nerve to complain? What, do you think I'm dead?"

"You... you vulgar person, why would Brother Ling have called you here? What makes you think you can do this—"

"Shut up!" Ling Wenchen didn't want to listen anymore.

"This matter is already very clear. Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu, you brought this whole thing on yourselves. However, according to military regulations, verbally abusing other comrades will result in one demerit. If it happens again, you will be removed from the border base immediately."

Jiang Yuyan raised an eyebrow. There was no third chance. It seemed that the border was much stricter than she had thought.

"Brother Ling!"

With a 'bang',

Ling Wenchen slammed his hand on the table, startling Wu Jiaojiao and Yao Yu, who were both startled, except for Jiang Yuyan.

"Wu Jiaojiao, I'm saying this one last time. If I ever hear you call me 'Big Brother' instead of 'Comrade Deputy Commander' again, you don't need to apply; I'll kick you out of here immediately."

Wu Jiaojiao: "!!!!"

Unwilling to listen to their excuses any longer, Ling Wenchen had them both taken away and told the head nurse about the mistake they had made.

Soon, only the two of them remained in the office.

The atmosphere was silent. Jiang Yuyan felt very awkward. She pretended to pick up her water glass to drink, but was so startled by Ling Wenchen's sudden words that she almost spat it out.

"Are you angry with me because of what happened between those two? Because of jealousy?"

"Pfft~"

"Cough cough cough—"

Jiang Yuyan quickly put down her water glass, glared at him irritably, and said, "You... you can talk all you want, but why did you have to resort to personal attacks? You almost scared me to death."

Ling Wenchen smiled, "Finally not going to stand on ceremony with me? Not going to say thank you or apologize?"

Jiang Yuyan pouted, "Hmph, I wasn't going to be polite to you anyway, but you've been so ignorant and keep flirting with people like this...

Ling Wenchen: "????"

"What? What did you just say? You were too quiet, I didn't hear you."

Jiang Yuyan snapped, "Ugh, I told you it was nothing! Why did you call me here? If you don't tell me, I'm going back!"

Ling Wenchen dared not tease her any further, afraid she would really get angry. He bent down and took a document from under the drawer, handing it to her.

"Based on what you said, we searched all the corpses that had taken the new drug and found that, in addition to the case you described, there was another case where the lumbar vertebrae were intact, but the cervical vertebrae were completely shattered."

Jiang Yuyan opened the document, carefully examined the details, and discovered suspicious points.

"This body isn't from this area? Then where was it found? Besides the body, is there anything else at the scene? Anything will do."

Ling Wenchen shook his head.

"This body was indeed not found here, but in the South District. As for what was found at the scene, we may need to consult the people who were there at the time."

Seeing her serious expression, I asked, "Have you discovered something?"

"Yes, and the problem is huge. Someone is using the ingredients of the new drug to research forbidden drugs. And once he succeeds in researching this drug, it will melt in the mouth and detonate all the strength in the body, causing the person to lose their ability to act independently and become a fighting puppet that is neither human nor ghost."

Ling Wenchen instantly understood the seriousness of the matter, his brows furrowing deeply.

"You think this person is currently on the southern border? But conducting this experiment requires manpower and resources, right? Where did they find so many people to conduct the experiment?"

"Judging from the corpses, they didn't look like Chinese, yet they had Asian faces. Could these test subjects have been smuggled in from abroad?"

Jiang Yuyan, however, did not think so. She had a bold idea in her mind, and if this idea came true, then the person behind it would be incredibly audacious.

However, there is currently no evidence to prove it, the clues are too few, and what she knows is only partial, so she cannot reveal it and disturb the morale of the troops.

"Brother Wenchen, the most important thing now is to quickly notify the comrades in the South District to carefully check whether there is anything else around the corpse, such as mucus on the ground, or the corpse of a small animal."

"Okay, I'll report this immediately. It's late, I'll take you home first, and leave the rest to us."

However, back in her dorm, Jiang Yuyan kept thinking about one question.

Why was that person able to accurately analyze the ingredients of the new military drug? She remembered that one of the ingredients in the new military drug was not sold in pharmacies or hospitals in cities and towns; it could only be found deep in the mountains.

Few people recognize it, and even fewer know its functions and uses.
