Chapter 95: Enemy Agents

　　The rain was still falling. As a man, Fu Shaohua stepped forward at this time and followed one of the male comrades who came out to watch the fun to carry Ji Youshang back to the hospital bed.

　　Meng Linyi walked over, rolled her eyes, and patted him. His eyes moved, and Meng Linyi said, "It's nothing. Maybe you were struck by lightning and got a little numb. It will be fine in a while."

　　After Meng Linyi finished speaking, she didn't know why she felt particularly regretful. Why didn't the thunder kill Ji Youshang?

　　Jiang Youtao sighed. The thunder was so loud that it was scary even for her listening in the room. Why didn't it kill Ji Youshang?

　　At this moment, Jiang Youtao and Meng Linyi's thoughts clashed.

　　There's no need to do something to Ji Youshang. The rain outside seemed to be stopping, so Jiang Youtao and Fu Shaohua decided to leave.

　　After saying goodbye to Meng Linyi, Jiang Youtao and Fu Shaohua walked towards his dormitory.

　　Fu Shaohua's brows were furrowed all the way. Jiang Youtao saw it and asked, "What's wrong? You look depressed."

　　Fu Shaohua looked around. It was a rainy day and there were not many pedestrians on the road. Fu Shaohua moved closer to Jiang Youtao and said, "I always feel that Ji Youshang's behavior doesn't seem like a good person."

　　Fu Shaohua has met many people who practice medicine. In this era, being a doctor, like being a teacher, is not a very safe job.

　　Many doctors are very low-key, and there are very few like Ji Youshang.

　　He gave Fu Shaohua a very bad impression.

　　Jiang Youtao was not born in this era, and she just thought that Ji Youshang was pretending.

　　But Fu Shaohua's words made Jiang Youtao think about it again, and she began to feel uncomfortable.

　　Logically speaking, Ji Youshang is a medical student at Shanghai Medical College. Even if his grades are not that good, he is still very popular in this era.

　　Moreover, this was the time when doctors were most in short supply. What kind of era was this? This was an era when anyone could become a doctor as long as he could read a few words, understand the barefoot doctor's notes, and pass the exam.

　　How could a medical student like Ji Youshang, who graduated from a regular medical school, come to this remote and poor village of Zaoxiang to be a doctor?

　　For Meng Linyi? Looking at Ji Youshang's expression today, it was obviously not the case.

　　In the book, Meng Linyi and Ji Youshang did not have feelings for each other from the beginning. They started dating in July and decided to get married at the end of the year.

　　So the question is, what made Ji Youshang willingly stay in Zaoxiang?

　　Is it the prescription in Meng Linyi's hand? It doesn't look like it. At this time in the previous life, Meng Linyi's prescription had just been produced and had not yet been clinically tested.

　　The more she think about it, the more doubts she have.

　　Someone was walking towards them, and the two of them ended the topic tacitly.

　　Jiang Youtao sent Fu Shaohua to his dormitory. Fu Shaohua took the medicine and lay on the bed to sleep. She did not leave but took the book that Fu Shaohua had not finished and started reading it.

　　The rain outside stopped unknowingly. Jiang Youtao opened the window and a slight cool breeze blew in.

　　The air is especially fresh after the rain, and Jiang Youtao likes it very much.

　　She pulled her coat on and fell asleep on the table.

　　When she woke up, she was lying on Fu Shaohua's single bed, but Fu Shaohua was nowhere to be found.

　　She sat up from the bed, folded the quilt, and walked out. Fu Shaohua and Yan Qinghe were chatting in the corridor below. Hearing the footsteps, they both turned around at the same time.

　　"Are you awake?" Fu Shaohua's cold was more serious now than in the morning, and his nose was a little blocked. Jiang Youtao nodded at them.

　　"Are you awake? What time is it?" Gu Nianwei gave Jiang Youtao a watch, but she would take it off before going to bed at night. It was raining heavily outside this morning, so she didn't bring it with her.

　　She can check the time through her system, but Jiang Youtao still wants to ask Fu Shaohua.

　　She just wanted to make small talk with the beautiful boy, no other intention.

　　Fu Shaohua raised his hand and looked at the watch: "It's half past one. Are you hungry? Let's go eat."

　　It was less than ten o'clock when they came back from the health center. Fu Shaohua fell asleep at half past ten and woke up at a little after eleven. He saw Jiang Youtao sleeping on the table, so he carried her to the bed.

　　Jiang Youtao didn't want to go. Fu Shaohua was having a good chat with his good friends, so why would she go with him? But Fu Shaohua didn't give her a chance to refuse, and just took her wrist and left. Yan Qinghe had no objection and followed.

　　It was past mealtime and there were not many people in the state-owned restaurant, so the three of them found a table and sat down. Fu Shaohua called the waiter to take their order.

　　All the dishes he ordered were served today, and coincidentally, two of them were the chef's specialties.

　　"Brother Yan, you must try the braised pork and sweet and sour carp later. These are the specialties of this chef. They are delicious."

　　Yan Qinghe smiled and drank the water: "Okay, then I will definitely try it."

　　During the two hours that Jiang Youtao was sleeping, Fu Shaohua and Yan Qinghe had already reminisced about the past and were now chatting casually.

　　Before the food arrived, Meng Linyi arrived, followed by Ji Youshang.

　　Ji Youshang was still as arrogant as ever, and Meng Linyi's eyes almost rolled to the sky.

　　As Ji Youshang entered the restaurant, he looked around with disgust, but when he saw Yan Qinghe, who was wearing a military uniform next to Fu Shaohua, the disgust on his face subsided a little.

　　"Linyi, aren't they your friends? Why don't you go and say hello to them?" Ji Youshang seemed to have forgotten what harsh words he had said to Meng Linyi in the morning.

　　Meng Linyi ignored him completely.

　　"Xiao Meng, let's eat together." They are all friends. When they meet in a restaurant, it is only right and reasonable for them to eat together.

　　If Meng Linyi was alone, she would go, but with Ji Youshang around, she had no interest in going. The main reason was that Ji Youshang was a man with no guts, and Meng Linyi was afraid that eating at the same table with him would upset Jiang Youtao and the others.

　　Before Meng Linyi could even open her mouth, Ji Youshang came over and said, "Is it really okay? We're so embarrassed."

　　Ji Youshang said he was embarrassed, but he sat firmly next to Yan Qinghe.

　　"Linyi, won't you introduce us? Who is this?" Jiang Youtao and Fu Shaohua automatically disappeared in front of Ji Youshang. There was only Yan Qinghe in his eyes.

　　Yan Qinghe raised his teacup to Haoji again and said, "Yan Qinghe, may I ask your name?"

　　"My surname is Ji, and my given name is Youshang. Comrade Yan is a soldier. I am born to admire soldiers. If I had failed the physical examination, I would have joined the army." Ji Youshang changed his arrogance in the morning and turned into an ordinary citizen who admired soldiers. He praised Yan Qinghe one after another.

　　Yan Qinghe was smiling all the time when he was flattering him.

　　Jiang Youtao looked at Ji Youshang, who was a completely different person from the morning, and asked Meng Linyi quietly, "Is he really okay?"

　　Meng Linyi said gloomily, "It's okay. He got better as soon as you left. He didn't have any sequelae. He originally said he was leaving, but when he came back after going out, he said he wanted to treat me to a meal. I had to eat."

　　"But after this meal, he's going to leave." Meng Linyi just felt unlucky. Most people who were struck by lightning would have some sequelae, such as concussion, fracture, and burns. But this man Ji Youshang was fine.

　　If someone hadn't seen Ji Youshang being struck by lightning with their own eyes, she would have thought that Ji Youshang was playing a trick on herself.

　　Jiang Youtao nodded and turned to look. Fu Shaohua's eyes were always on Ji Youshang. Jiang Youtao patted his thigh, and Fu Shaohua immediately reached out and held her hand.

　　Jiang Youtao didn't try to break free, but asked him quietly, "Did you see anything?"

　　Ji Youshang is still trying to get close to Yan Qinghe.

　　Fu Shaohua nodded and said, "I'll tell you in detail later."

　　Meng Linyi heard it and looked at Jiang Youtao with some curiosity. Jiang Youtao leaned close to her ear and whispered to her: "Do you think that he has a strong interest in Brother Yan after seeing him?"

　　Meng Linyi turned around to look, and in just a short while, Ji Youshang was already asking what Yan Qinghe was doing.

　　The waiter brought the dishes. There were five people in total, including Meng Linyi. They ordered four dishes, and the portion of each dish was very large. Fu Shaohua ordered two bottles of Erguotou. He and Yan Qinghe urged Ji Youshang to drink at the same time. Halfway through the meal, Ji Youshang was already drunk.

　　Fu Shaohua and Yan Qinghe's faces did not show any signs of being drunk, their faces were not red and they were not out of breath.

　　After dinner, Meng Linyi left.

　　If the director of the health center hadn't kept persuading him, Meng Linyi wouldn't have come to have this meal with Ji Youshang.

　　Jiang Youtao went to the bathroom and came back. Yan Qinghe and Ji Youshang were gone. Fu Shaohua was waiting for her.

　　After leaving the state-owned restaurant, Fu Shaohua said, "There is something really wrong with Ji Youshang. Most people would be curious when they see a soldier, but few would be this curious. He asked a lot of questions that ordinary people would not ask, but that enemy agents would pay special attention to."

　　For example, what branch of the military is Yan Qinghe, is he stationed nearby, what kind of training he usually does, what he eats, whether he can eat enough, whether he is tired, and whether the training officer is strict.

　　The term "enemy spy" is very far away from Jiang Youtao's life, but this kind of people have always existed.

　　Jiang Youtao's expression became serious: "Are you sure?"

　　Fu Shaohua said, "Almost. He must have been recruited not long ago and hasn't learned how to hide yet. The questions he asked were very simple and he was very eager for quick success."

　　People like Fu Shaohua who grew up in a military compound have been taught by their elders how to identify enemy spies since childhood. In their eyes, Ji Youshang's skills are as superficial as those of a child.

　　Jiang Youtao nodded. If Ji Youshang was an enemy spy, then all the things that she had been unable to understand before could be explained.

　　Fu Shaohua continued: "You should let your friends make plans early."

　　In this era, treason is a very serious crime. Once verified, it will implicate everyone around you.

　　"How long will it take to confirm?"

　　"Brother Yan has sent Ji Youshang to the township guesthouse. He will report the matter to his superiors when he returns. If nothing unexpected happens, they will contact Shencheng tonight. The matter will be investigated in a week at most."

　　This speed surprised Jiang Youtao a little, but it was also reasonable. After all, in this era, everyone had zero tolerance for enemy spies.

　　Fu Shaohua didn't say anything more. After sending Jiang Youtao home, he went back.

　　Jiang Youtao asked the melon-eating system: [ What is the difference between the Zao Township in the previous life of No. 9 Little World and the Zao Township in this life? ]

　　The melon-eating system said: [ There is no difference. Zao Township does have a food factory. ]

　　Jiang Youtao was thinking about what Chigua System said. Why would a small local food factory be built by the Urban Construction Corps? And could the fact that the Urban Construction Corps came here with such a big fanfare also be a cover?

　　Jiang Youtao opened the ninth book and read the passage about Zao Township again and again. Finally, when the article was less than 30,000 words, she saw a very inconspicuous line.

　　There are many garrisons in the mountains near Zao Township. When Meng Linyi went up the mountain to collect herbs, she met a seriously injured soldier. She used hemostatic powder on him and also the scar cream she had just developed. It was because of this treatment that Meng Linyi's hemostatic powder came into the attention of the troops.

　　Jiang Youtao closed the book. It was getting dark. Jiang Youtao got up and went to No. 10 Xingfu Lane.

　　Judging from these clues, Ji Youshang was also an enemy spy in his previous life, which explains why he stayed in this small place.

　　Then the question arises again. Was Ji Youshang in the previous life really being plotted against, which is why he mortgaged the prescriptions that Meng Linyi had researched?

　　Or was it that Ji Youshang and other enemy agents had set up a trap to confuse people?

　　[ Tongzi, ask No. 9 what it felt after it found out that Ji Youshang might be an enemy spy. ]

　　How could the melon-eating system miss such explosive news? It had already pulled out the consciousness of the small world No. 9 to have a look.

　　The consciousness of the No. 9 small world was dumbfounded and cried like a dog. It was obvious that it had never known that Ji Youshang was an enemy spy.

　　The melon-eating system looked down on it: [ What a fool, he's already crying silly. ]

　　Jiang Youtao was also speechless. It turned out that this small world consciousness No. 9 was really a stupid thing: [ Tongzi, I have a question. How did this small world consciousness come into being? How could it be so stupid! ]

　　For this question, the system answered: [ After a book is completed, it will go through a long evolution. Slowly, the characters in these small worlds come alive, each has their own life, and the consciousness of the small world is born. ]

　　[ And in this process, the consciousness of the small world will be affected in various ways, forming different personalities, which will also create different endings for each small world. ]

　　Jiang Youtao nodded, indicating that she understood. She knocked on the door of No. 10 Xingfu Lane, and the one who opened the door was the nurse who had brought Ji Youshang in at the health center this morning.

　　Meng Linyi had just washed her hair and was a little surprised to see Jiang Youtao coming over.

　　Jiang Youtao took her to her home, closed the door, leaned close to Meng Linyi's ear, and whispered, "Ji Youshang's political stance is not firm, you have to make plans early."

　　Meng Linyi didn't react at first, and then he widened his eyes and asked, "Who do you think he is?"

　　"I'm not quite sure yet, but someone has already checked it out. In a few days, there will be results." Jiang Youtao felt that Meng Linyi had to be made aware of this matter. She was holding a treasure, and Jiang Youtao hoped that she would live a good life along with the things she had researched.

　　Meng Linyi took a deep breath: "I understand, thank you, Taotao."

　　Meng Linyi calls Jiang Youtao the same way as Zhong Qianxi.

　　"You are welcome."

　　Meng Linyi said goodbye to Jiang Youtao and returned to the dormitory. Her roommate lay on the kang, read a book for a while and fell asleep, but Meng Linyi tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

　　She just wanted to do her research quietly. Every prescription in the red envelope system fascinated her, and she had already accumulated three prescriptions.

　　In addition to the hemostatic powder, there is also scar cream. She has almost collected all the herbs for the scar cream.

　　Ji Youshang's incident sounded a wake-up call for Meng Linyi. She took things for granted. In this era, if she, who had no power or influence, really researched so many things, she would definitely not be able to keep them.

　　Ji Youshang is not an exception. He doesn't even know she has this ability.

　　If Ji Youshang had not come today, if she had not happened to meet Fu Shaohua and the others in the restaurant, if there had not happened to be a soldier at the dinner table, and Ji Youshang had acted too utilitarian, she, an ordinary person with no experience in this area, would not be able to defend against the enemy spies who had endless means of attacking and destroying the enemy.

　　Meng Linyi did not sleep that night, and she went up the mountain early the next morning.

　　She had heard that there were troops stationed on the mountain near Zao Township.

　　She thought about it carefully and realized that in this era, the only one who could provide her with shelter was the army, and she only believed in the army.

　　She had thought about the consequences before she set out to climb the mountain. The worst outcome for her was to be taken into custody.

　　Meng Linyi was not afraid. In her previous life, when she and her boyfriend encountered an earthquake, it was the People's Liberation Army who moved the bricks and stones little by little and dug them out. From that moment on, she had decided to use all her life's knowledge to serve the motherland.

　　It's just that she was too ordinary in her previous life, and there was very little she could do. But this life is different, she has a cheat.

　　It was a people-oriented army, the only organization she could trust in this strange time and space.

　　She doesn't trust anyone else, whether it's the police or government officials.

　　As the heroine, Meng Linyi still has some aura of the heroine, even though the No. 9 small world is more inclined towards Ji Youshang than her.

　　After climbing a high mountain, she saw a military camp in a basin among the mountains.

　　She wiped the sweat from her forehead and walked forward step by step. After she had taken a few steps, several people covered in leaves crawled up from the ground beside her.

　　They all had wooden guns on their chests. One of them stepped forward and asked, "Where are you from? What are you doing here?!"

　　Meng Linyi took out the prepared knife, and the soldiers opposite her raised their guns in unison. Meng Linyi couldn't help but smile, then raised her hand and cut her wrist hard. The skin was instantly torn apart, and blood flowed down her wrist to the ground.

　　The soldiers on the opposite side had never seen such a situation before. They looked at each other in confusion, but also became more vigilant. Two of them even loaded their guns.

　　Meng Linyi showed no mercy and her face turned pale with pain. She endured the pain, took out the hemostatic powder she had prepared earlier, bit open the bottle cap and sprinkled it on the wound, and the bleeding stopped instantly.

　　The soldiers' eyes fell on the unused bottle in Meng Linyi's hand. Meng Linyi said to them, "I'm sorry, comrades. The situation is urgent, so I have to use some special means. I want to see your leader."

　　The leader of the soldiers on the opposite side stepped forward, took out the dagger he carried with him and cut his hand. He was very strong and the wound was deeper than the one cut by Meng Linyi.

　　Meng Linyi immediately handed over the powder. The soldier looked at Meng Linyi, took the powder and sprinkled it on his wrist. After a while, the bleeding stopped. The soldier's expression was still calm. He looked to the right and said, "You go back and talk about this first. We will bring her here later."

　　"Yes." A young soldier put away the wooden warehouse and ran away.
