"Who wants to call the police!"
The deep and commanding voice of Leader Tang rang outside the door, and the next second, his broad fra entered first.
"Who wants to call the police?"
Leader Tang’s eyes scanned over Jiang Cheng, confirming he was fine before looking at the family shouting about calling the police.
Oh my gosh!
If it weren’t for the clothes, he might not have recognized whether it was a person or a pig’s head.
This won’t do!
Seems like I’ll need to find a day to teach Jiang Cheng how to choose his targets when hitting soone.
Leader Tang’s thoughts started to wander.
"Leader Tang, what brings you here?"
Uncle Sun knew Leader Tang.
Leader Tang was in charge of police affairs in this area, and they’d t a few tis.
Leader Tang nodded at Uncle Sun and said, "I ca to see Jiang Cheng about sothing, but let’s resolve the current issue first."
He widened his eyes, and the two police officers behind him understood imdiately to talk to the Lin Family and others nearby to understand the situation.
A group of people, each adding their story.
The situation was almost sorted out.
Leader Tang put on a stern face, looked at Jiang Cheng seriously, and said, "Mr. Jiang, although the other party was wrong first, you should also try to resolve things peacefully."
"You’re absolutely right."
Jiang Cheng lowered his head honestly.
"In civil disputes, since Mr. Jiang didn’t use any lethal weapons, maybe everyone should take a step back, and let’s leave it at that!"
Leader Tang’s words settled the matter, and the Lin Family wasn’t foolish.
It was clear to anyone that this Leader Tang was helping Jiang Cheng.
At the mont, the systems for prosecution and compensation aren’t very well developed, so everyone is used to resolving things privately.
In fact, the Lin Family started the trouble, and Lin Jiaojiao, who got hit multiple tis with a shoe, apart from the unsightly swelling, didn’t really have any severe injuries.
The Lin Family, having suffered several losses in one night, returned to their house in frustration.
A few minutes later, the Lin Family erupted in the first burst of truth under their fake peace.
Jiang Cheng didn’t concern herself with the Lin Family’s quarrels; she leaned close to Leader Tang and whispered, "Is there sothing going on?"
Leader Tang nodded slightly.
Jiang Cheng understood this wasn’t sothing to discuss here, but she was anxious. Leader Tang wouldn’t have personally co if it wasn’t urgent.
"I’ll co out right away."
Jiang Cheng turned around to make so arrangents.
Principal Wang and others packed up the gifts, and Principal Wang formally gave Jiang Cheng a stamped receipt.
"Thank you, Jiang Cheng."
"No worries, just rember I like at when you send als in the future."
Jiang Cheng’s half-joking remark was deeply rembered by Principal Wang.
Jiang Cheng exchanged a few words with Grandma Shen, thanked the Li Family, bid farewell to Uncle Sun, and finally left the courtyard with her backpack, following Leader Tang.
Once out of the courtyard, Leader Tang teased Jiang Cheng, "Such a small person, but quite busy."
"Can’t help it, excellent people are like that."
Jiang Cheng’s unabashed statent made Leader Tang burst out laughing.
Upon leaving the alley, Jiang Cheng spotted a jeep, indicating she was going on a long trip.
"Get in the car, I’ll tell you on the way."
"Alright!"
Jiang Cheng got in, sitting alone in the back, while Leader Tang and another driver were in the front.
Inside the car.
"Captain Zhong followed Sister Kong’s leads and tracked down the trafficking group, but the core mber from the other side is a person from Country R. Right now, we don’t have anyone who speaks R-language, and Elder Xu’s arrival would take too long, so he recomnded you go to help translate."
"It’s in the neighboring city, about three to four hours’ drive. If you can nap, try to catch so sleep."
Jiang Cheng nodded understandingly and said, "I’m not sleepy yet, I’ll read for a bit."
As she spoke, Jiang Cheng took out a dictionary and a flashlight from her backpack.
The flashlight illuminated the car’s interior, unaffected by the car’s swaying, Jiang Cheng calmly turned a page.
"Why did you bring a dictionary?"
"My greatest value lies in translating; you can’t have called to catch thieves."
"So I brought three dictionaries, a flashlight, and a few batteries."
Imrsed in her reading again, Leader Tang felt too embarrassed to speak further.
The driver tried to drive as smoothly as possible.
Currently, the road conditions were quite poor, with very few smooth paved roads. A flat gravel road was considered a blessing.
Not to ntion having to navigate backroads from ti to ti, relying entirely on the driver’s mory of the route.
That’s one of the reasons drivers were particularly sought after in this era.
Throughout the journey, Jiang Cheng didn’t rest, continuously engrossed in her book.
After three hours and forty-seven minutes, having adjusted her position countless tis, Jiang Cheng finally arrived.
She hopped out, dashed to a nearby ditch.
"Ugh——-"
She threw up!
Got shaken up!
Couldn’t withstand it any longer!
"Jiang Cheng!"
Leader Tang called out, quickly following her, signaling the driver to bring so water.
In an unnoticed corner, a tall man in full military gear, upon hearing the na "Jiang Cheng," imdiately looked up.
The next second, he got up, with his long legs stepping forward, and handed over his canteen.
"Water!"
Leader Tang glanced at him in surprise, unable to recognize the man whose face was covered in camouflage paint before him.
However, at this location, and with the other person wearing green, he instinctively took the canteen and handed it to Jiang Cheng.
"Drink so water."
"I was just thinking you’re good with car rides because you seed completely fine, but look at you now!"
"Why would you read if you’re feeling unwell!"
Jiang Cheng was rinsing her mouth.
How could she not read!
She’s already incredibly capable, and if she isn’t diligent and hard-working, how would others trust her!
If they don’t trust her, what if they turn her into a spy and capture her!
That would be so unfair to her.
Plus, reviewing old material and learning new things is how knowledge works.
Feeling a lot better after throwing up, Jiang Cheng stood up, handing the canteen back to Leader Tang, "I’m fine, just needed to throw up! Let’s get on with our business."
Once Leader Tang confird Jiang Cheng was genuinely fine, he casually returned the canteen to the nearby man.
He thanked him without delving further.
The man followed rules, so no probing questions were allowed.
"No need to thank."
Shen Que took back the canteen, his gaze resting on Jiang Cheng.
Is she really Jiang Cheng?
In the sa city, doing translations, with the sa na, Shen Que felt he couldn’t be mistaken.
"Captain!"
Another person with a face painted in camouflage ran over.
"Captain, Captain Zhong said the translator has arrived; we need to be ready to move out anyti."
"Let’s go!"
Shen Que collected his thoughts and strode away.
Jiang Cheng suddenly looked back, sensing soone was watching her.
But as she glanced back, all she saw was pitch black, not spotting anyone.
She shrugged, following Leader Tang into a courtyard where she t Uncle Zhong.
Uncle Zhong approached imdiately to update Jiang Cheng.
"A batch of goods has been sent out, and we need to recover it. There will be interrogations, and you’ll handle the translations, but if there’s an opportunity to extract more information, feel free to use your creativity."
Jiang Cheng solemnly stated, "I understand."
Both sides didn’t delay, and Jiang Cheng was taken into a room.
A table, three chairs, two people, sitting face-to-face.
Once inside, she directly pulled out the empty chair and sat down.
Translation ready, Interrogation began.
