Chapter 79 The Hidden Secret?

Cao Zhiqiang's car is still on the road.

He had just finished explaining the objectives of this operation to the students.

Tang Songming and the others had very serious expressions as they pondered the operation.

But Song Xi was the only one who looked very excited. As soon as she heard there was a fight, she was as happy as Doraemon seeing dorayaki.

At this point, Tang Songming raised a question: "Why did Brother Jiang and Captain Chen risk their lives alone?"

"Now that we know the hospital is in trouble, why not take swift and decisive action and strike at its heart?"

Cao Zhiqiang was, after all, the teacher of Class Two, and he didn't know much about the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties.

He was taken aback by Tang Songming's way of speaking.

But he immediately replied, "First ask if it exists, then ask why."

"First of all, it is currently impossible to confirm whether the hospital has been infiltrated."

"Whether it was Jiang Chuan's high school teacher or that member of the inspection team, they had reasonable and sufficient reasons for calling Jiang Chuan and Chen Xingyang over."

“If not, your so-called drastic measures will cause panic among the masses. In principle, we should try our best to avoid such a situation.”

"You may also need to cooperate with the inspection team later. One of the rules is to avoid harming innocent people and minimize the impact as much as possible."

"And I must remind you..."

“Unlike awakened individuals like you, most people’s past life memories are nothing special.”

"It should be known that... throughout history, ordinary people have always been the majority."

The tattoos on Cao Zhiqiang's bald head moved as he spoke, like markings.

He paused slightly after saying this, then continued:
"Then again..."

"If the hospital has indeed been infiltrated, then a hasty attack could have even worse consequences."

He recalled the night he was brutally murdered by that member of the inspection team named Jiang Lihua.

Of the students who followed him, five participated in the fishing trip that night.

Upon hearing Cao Zhiqiang's explanation, Tang Songming nodded in realization, understanding that he had indeed overlooked some aspects.

The others nodded slightly as well.

Li Yi's voice followed closely: "But if Jiang Chuan and Captain Chen are really going to fall for it, then the other side must have come prepared..."

"The chances of them encountering danger are too great."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "But they still chose to do it."

"..."

"Someone has to do it."

A boy in the carriage asked instinctively:

"Why not replace them with someone else?"

"If we replace it with a stronger one, the risk might be much lower."

Inside the car, a short-haired girl who was blowing bubblegum snorted:
"What if it were someone else?"

"Who?"

"You?"

The boy glanced at the girl.

The girl remained completely calm, meeting the boy's gaze head-on, and continued speaking forcefully:
"Leaving aside whether anyone would be willing to go, even if someone were willing to take on this task..."

"Wouldn't that alert them? Wouldn't that just tell others, 'We know there's a trap here'?"

"This would not only put them in danger, but could also ruin the entire setup."

She scoffed and said, "I don't know how you can say something like that. Is your head all muscles?"

Cao Zhiqiang prevented the students from getting into an argument, saying:
"The current situation is very complicated."

"What Tian Tian said makes sense, but she's only half right."

The girl named Tian Tian, ​​who was chewing bubble gum, paused for a moment.

Cao Zhiqiang continued:
"If it weren't Jiang Chuan and Chen Xingyang who had fallen into the trap, the other side might have continued to exercise restraint until they reached the point where they needed to achieve their goal."

"But we can't afford to wait."

"If the hospital is taken over, and that drug is mass-produced, the entire city of Qing will be plunged into crisis."

"From their perspective, if we adopt a conciliatory approach, it means their identity hasn't been exposed..."

"He can then continue to lie low with a clear conscience."

"This is an open conspiracy."

"Jiang Chuan and Chen Xingyang risked their lives for this very reason."

"They have to do this to truly close this case."

Cao Zhiqiang's words were quite convoluted, and some people didn't understand them.

Liang Cheng summarized: "Simply put, the result has not collapsed to a single point, but is quite divergent."

"Only if Jiang Chuan and Captain Chen willingly walk into the trap can the subsequent developments collapse into the result we want: the other side is exposed."

"Although Jiang Chuan and Captain Chen are in danger, the situation is in our hands."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded and said, "That's right."

Tang Songming looked at Liang Cheng: "Brother Liang, you actually have such knowledge."

Liang Cheng ignored him.

Lin Ci, who had remained silent until now, exclaimed, "Jiang Chuan is such a chivalrous person."

"Such sincerity is truly rare."

The car has entered the city and will soon arrive at Qingshi Hospital.

Song Xi brought the discussion to a close:

"I can't understand any of it..."

"And why say so much?"

"Aren't we still going to fight?"

……

……

On the building outside the hospital, sniper Yue Wen and his men had already set up their sniper rifles again.

The members of the inspection team are all ready and on high alert.

Jiang Chuan had an invisible earpiece in his ear canal, listening to the report from the technical department of the Qing City institution about the situation inside the hospital.

Family members carrying medical reports hurried in and out, the faint smell of disinfectant lingering in their nostrils, as if everything was as usual...

Although it was normal, it still made Jiang Chuan feel somewhat anxious.

Because he was very clear about the effects of that drug.

Even ordinary people who seem harmless might suddenly launch an attack on you.

Once the drug takes effect, how many people standing here will turn their gazes toward him? But Jiang Chuan did not stop.

This is an appointment I must keep.

There are too many unknowns ahead in this operation.

It gives one the feeling of knowingly venturing into dangerous territory despite the danger.

When Jiang Chuan arrived at Liu Yuyu's hospital room, he took a deep breath.

After knocking and entering, I saw Liu Yuyu's smiling face.

"Teacher, I'm here."

Liu Yuyu turned around, smiled and nodded: "You're here."

She said with a hint of apology, "I'll have to get my students to help..."

"I really can't find anyone else, and I can't move all these things myself."

"What a terrible teacher..."

Jiang Chuan followed Liu Yuyu's gaze and saw the huge cardboard box.

The box looked very heavy. After all, Teacher Liu had just recovered from a serious illness, and being a woman, it was perfectly normal that she couldn't move it.

Normal, everything is normal.

Jiang Chuan couldn't see anything wrong.

Jiang Chuan had mixed feelings; he couldn't tell whether Teacher Liu had actually been "infiltrated."

He cleared his mind of all distractions, not wanting Teacher Liu to see the strange look in his eyes, so he avoided her gaze, walked to the box, squatted down, and prepared to lift the box up in one go.

"I hope nothing's wrong..."

"I hope it was just a false alarm."

He thought so.

But to their surprise, the seemingly huge box was actually incredibly light.

I was prepared to use a lot of force, but I lifted it up very easily.

Jiang Chuan was stunned for a moment, subconsciously feeling that it was a trap, but he immediately came to his senses... realizing that his power had far exceeded the brain's habitual perception.

Liu Yuyu asked with concern, "Are you alright? Can you move it?"

"Shall we go together?"

Jiang Chuan, who had been holding the box with both hands, started lifting it with only one hand after hearing these words.

"It's alright, teacher, it's too easy."

Although Liu Yuyu still had a smile on her lips, her eyes revealed a hint of surprise: "So much strength?"

Jingle bell bell bell!

Just as Jiang Chuan was about to say something, the phone suddenly rang.

He put down the box, took out his phone, and saw that it was Shen Jing calling.

Jiang Chuan answered the phone: "Did your mom give you the phone?"

Shen Jing: "When I got home from my lunch break, I found my phone. The place my mom hid my phone was the same place she hid the TV remote when I was a kid..."

"Let's not talk about that now, Brother Chuan, are you alright?"

Jiang Chuan: "It's okay. If something happened, would you still be able to contact me?"

Shen Jing's voice was filled with great doubt: "Are you alright?"

Hearing Jiang Chuan say that everything was alright, he became even more anxious:
"I skipped class and rushed home just to tell you that your bloody misfortune has been averted."

"but……"

"But something's not right..."

"Brother Chuan, if nothing had happened, there's no way this could be solved..."

Jiang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the bloodshed had been averted.

But listening to Shen Jing's words and his tense tone, it was obvious that something was wrong.

After a moment, he asked Shen Jing, "Is there any other possibility?"

Shen Jing said, "Brother Chuan, I think you'd better hope there's no other possibility..."

"If there's any other possibility, it can only mean that you've been targeted."

"Someone is disrupting my divination."

He paused for a moment, then asked:
"Does anyone know your b...?"

Shen Jing was only halfway through his sentence when the communication was suddenly cut off.

b?
Gossip?

Does anyone know your gossip?

However, Jiang Chuan knew that he had never told anyone about his divination, not even someone as reliable as Chen Xingyang.

So... Shen Jing's worries were probably unfounded.

After hanging up the phone, Ms. Liu Yuyu's voice came through:
"Is everything okay?"

"If you're busy, go back first. As for these things... I'll think of something else."

Jiang Chuan shook his head and naturally took the Coke handed to him by the teacher, saying, "It's okay, it's okay."

"What do I have to be busy with?"

At this moment, he felt much more relaxed.

If the bloodshed has been averted, it means Teacher Liu is fine, and this operation will proceed without any problems...

My previous guesses and deductions with Captain Chen were just coincidences.

Although it was just a false alarm for my classmates and colleagues in the inspection team, it's better than a real problem...

Thinking this, Jiang Chuan twisted open the cap of the cola bottle, raised the bottle to his lips, but suddenly stopped.

He brought the mouth of the Coke bottle to his nose and smelled it.

No taste whatsoever.

In that instant, Jiang Chuan felt his heart skip a beat.

At that very moment, Jiang Chuan suddenly thought of something else.

The last question Shen Jing asked when he hung up the phone.

That vaguely mentioned "eight" isn't the Eight Trigrams... it's the Eight Characters!

Goosebumps erupted all over his body, and his hair stood on end!

Shen Jing's last question was, "Does anyone know your birth date and time?"
Jiang Chuan shifted his gaze from the mouth of the cola bottle to what was in front of him.

Besides Shen Jing, who else knows his birth date and time...

She is standing right in front of me now.
