Travel through famine years and awaken a post-apocalyptic survival system.

Chapter 49, Silencing

It's unlocked?

This is not something a spy should do.

With that thought in mind, he gently pushed open the door, which faced the bedroom.

It was very dark inside.

"Bang!"

He took out his gun, prepared his flashlight, and scanned the inside.

"broken."

When Zhao Qingsong saw Xu Jing lying in a pool of blood, his expression changed.

Was he silenced?

I quickly closed the door; if someone found out, it would be hard to explain.

Light the candles on the table.

Only then did he carefully approach Xu Jing's side, squat down, and check her breath at her nose.

"It's hopeless."

At this point, Xu Jing was barely breathing and exhaling more than she could breathe; she was beyond saving.

"This is troublesome. This lead has gone cold again. It seems that Xu Jing is indeed a problem."

His brows furrowed as he pondered what to do next.

Suddenly, he remembered that he still had two bottles of healing potions in his storage space!

Drinking it all is definitely not good.

After all, such a serious injury would be difficult to explain if it suddenly healed.

If you drink a little, you can keep someone alive without letting anyone notice.

Thinking of this, he immediately took out a bottle of healing potion.

One-fifth of it was poured directly into the container.

The woman was barely breathing.

After taking the medicine, Zhao Qingsong observed the patient, hoping it would be effective!

"it works!"

The previously weak pulse began to beat strongly.

"Wake up, wake up!"

Qingsong slapped the other person's face, trying to bring them back to their senses.

Xu Jing had lost too much blood. Although her breathing had become much more stable, she still showed no signs of waking up.

I felt a little hesitant.

He hasn't figured out the dosage yet. What if he drinks it all and the person suddenly becomes normal? How would he explain that?

Let's observe first.

Gently lifting the other person's clothes, several shocking wounds were revealed, with blood flowing freely.

He frowned slightly and then poured in some more medicine.

He stopped bleeding when he saw that the bleeding had stopped.

"You can't drink anymore. If you do, you might get cured. Then you won't be able to explain it."

I gave up the idea of continuing to give her the medicine.

He was pondering how to handle the situation afterward.

There's something strange about this.

Xu Jing's case had only been suspected for a short time, yet she was silenced so quickly.

Either Gou Sheng was caught, which alerted the people lying in wait.

Either... there's a mole in the security department. After all, the factory knows a lot about spies, but not many know about Xu Jing.

And since she's in such a hurry to silence him, Xu Jing must know a lot of things.

If we alert the people lurking here, it will be easier to investigate.

But what if it's a mole within the security department?

This is troublesome.

I'm wondering in my mind who it is most likely to be.

Unfortunately, before Xu Jing's affair was known only to him, Gao Dazhi, Wu Zhiqiang, and Sun Guodong, but after Sun Dalei was arrested, the news spread throughout the security department.

Who on earth is it?

Anyone could be involved.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qingsong frowned.

What about Xu Jing?

What should I do?

If we just take them back so openly, won't we alert them?

What if they get silenced again?

Then, something occurred to him and his eyes lit up.

To stir up trouble and alert the enemy?

Perhaps we can lure them out. Once the enemy agents know that Xu Jing is still alive, they will definitely feel uneasy and will most likely choose to continue their attack.

Okay, let's give it a try.

Until we figure it out, this is the only way for now. We'll report this to the security department later.

Open and aboveboard, let's see who can't sit still.

The premise is to protect Xu Jing as a person.

Suddenly, he thought of something and his expression changed instantly.

Since Xu Jing has a problem, what about Xu Qiang? That guy is still locked up in the security office!

Xu Jing is dead.

What about Xu Qiang?

What if they find out something? What if they're silenced?

Thinking of this, he immediately picked the person up.

His weight of nearly 100 pounds is not too bad for him.

He blew out the candles, grabbed the person, and ran straight towards the steel factory.

Anyway, the distance isn't very far.

……

Half an hour later, Zhao Qingsong passed by the gate of the steel plant.

The person in the gatehouse saw him and was surprised: "Officer Zhao, what happened?"

Worried about the news leaking out, Zhao Qingsong gave a perfunctory answer: "This is someone from our factory. He's injured, and I need to take him to the infirmary."

After saying that, he grabbed the person and rushed inside.

Grandpa Li didn't think much of it.

Injuries are common in the factory.

……

"A pine tree?"

I ran into Gao Dazhi just as I arrived at the entrance of the infirmary.

The other person came over, saw the woman in his arms, and exclaimed in surprise, "What happened?"

Zhao Qingsong said anxiously, "This is Xu Jing. I was following him today and he was killed. I rescued him. You should go check on Xu Qiang. He might be in danger."

As he spoke, he kept an eye on Gao Dazhi's expression.

Upon hearing this, the other person's expression changed: "Then you go in quickly, I'll go check with the security department."

After saying that, he ran away.

Zhao Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the other person's retreating figure.

Anyone from the security department could be involved, including Gao Dazhi, though he didn't want it to be him.

Since he had directly told the other party that Xu Qiang would be fine regardless of whether he had any problems or not, he decided to let him know directly.

They then quickly carried him into the infirmary.

"Doctor, doctor, help! Help!"

Zhao Qingsong carried the person to the hospital and called out to them.

Even though it's nighttime, some people who work the night shift still come to see a doctor, and there's a doctor on duty there.

This is a middle-aged woman around forty years old.

Seeing this, I was startled: "What happened! Quick, to the ward!"

Zhao Qingsong hurriedly followed the other person to the ward.

"Hey, who is that?"

"She looks like Xu Jing!"

"Really? What's going on?!"

"How would I know! The injury is quite serious!"

Those who remained recognized Xu Jing, and immediately began to discuss the matter.

……

Zhao Qingsong placed the person on the bed and anxiously looked outside, hoping nothing would happen!

The doctor looked at Xu Jing, frowned, and asked, "What happened? Who are you?"

"Knife wound! I'm Zhao Qingsong, an officer from the security department. I can't explain this in a moment. You need to save her first. I have other things to do. Make sure she gets better. If she can't be treated, send her to Shougang Hospital."

This is the medical clinic inside the steel plant. With limited manpower and resources, it mainly treats minor illnesses and provides some emergency care.

There are specialized hospitals for serious illnesses.

There is a dedicated hospital three kilometers away from the steel plant.

Medical resources here are limited.

If a serious illness cannot be treated here, the steel mill will arrange for someone to go to the hospital, not the clinic.

After saying that, he ran away.

"Why!!"

Seeing Zhao Qingsong run away, the doctor called out anxiously.

Unfortunately, the person had already run far away.

……

After Zhao Qingsong came out, he went straight to the security department.

But when he arrived at the destination, his expression changed.

There were quite a few people gathered below the security building, and there were also people in the corridor on the second floor.
