Qiu Bao, out of sight of others, was using a magical tool resembling a shovel, and with a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! He had already started digging, at an extremely fast speed, without any resistance.

Hua Yan was stunned on the spot; she really didn't know that Qiu Bao had this ability.

However, she didn't sit idle. She started tinkering with the medicinal herbs in Plum Blossom Valley, turning them into various powders, liquids, and other forms. She didn't know what Qiu Bao would take out of them, so she wanted to be prepared to replace them and give these people a lesson they would never forget.

Onogawajima and his group were trying to open the hidden door, while Qiu Bao had already taken out a cabinet from behind the hidden door.

This cabinet is a small safe with a combination lock, and there are explosives next to the lock. If it is forced open, the explosives will be detonated.

Hua Yan watched as Qiu Bao swaggered out with the safe, knowing it was a success. But when she saw the explosives on it, she shuddered.

Haha! Ignorance is bliss! I just wonder if this explosive will kill Qiu Bao. Before Qiu Bao had a body, this wasn't a problem, but now that he has a real body, we have to be careful. We might accidentally blow up the body Qiu Bao worked so hard to get.

Hua Yan quickly stepped forward and took the safe, patting Qiu Bao on the shoulder as a reward, but actually trying to calm her own heart, which was about to leap out of her chest.

Hua Yan doesn't know the password, nor has she ever unlocked a safe before. How can she open it? Taking it back to someone with experience to open it is a viable option. However, if there's a mistake and they don't have a chance to try and fail, the safe might explode, and the contents inside could explode as well, potentially leading to unimaginable consequences.

Hua Yan dared not gamble, nor could she afford to. If something went wrong here, it would only be a few of them in danger; with the mountain and caves providing cover, it wouldn't cause any serious consequences.

"What's wrong, Jiu'er?"

Qiu Bao saw Hua Yan staring blankly at the cabinet, not moving for a long time, and couldn't help but be curious.

"I want to open it, but I don't have the password. This is explosives..."

Hua Yan explained to Qiu Bao what the consequences would be if it couldn't be opened normally.

"Then why don't we just open it from here!"

"If we don't open it from here, where do we open it from?..."

Hua Yan seemed to have thought of something, then shook her head, feeling it was unrealistic.

"Why not just drill a hole from the back? There's no need to unlock the front, and it won't detonate any bombs."

Qiu Bao looked at Hua Yan with an expression that said, "How could someone as smart as you not think of such a simple method? Has your master's intelligence declined?"

Hua Yan, who had been mentally criticizing Qiu Bao, looked at him with surprise. Since Qiu Bao said so, he must be able to dig a hole. She might not have believed him before, but after seeing him dig a hole, she could no longer judge him by conventional standards.

"Ball Boy, be careful when you're drilling, there might be explosives in there."

Hua Yan handed over the task directly, but kindly reminded Qiu Bao.

Qiu Bao gave her a reassuring look, then began to drill. The tools Qiu Bao used were all magical artifacts from Plum Blossom Valley, possessing extraordinary effects.

When Hua Yan saw how Qiu Bao had crawled down the safe wall, she marveled at the power of the Plum Blossom Valley's magical artifact. Even with a power drill from her previous life, it would have taken a while to drill through this thing, but Qiu Bao had done it with ease, without touching anything inside the safe.

Haha! This is a deity born from the essence of heaven and earth; its every move is a royal flush, incomparable. Even Hua Yan didn't dare to be jealous.

She carefully took out the items; they were fifty test tubes filled with liquids of various colors. Hua Yan didn't know what they were, so she asked Qiu Bao to put them in her spatial storage.

She searched the space for test tubes of the same size, put in the potion she had made herself, smeared some kind of liquid on the outside of the test tubes and the safe, and then put them into the safe with a sinister look on her face.

"Ball Boy, can you put this cabinet back to its original state?"

"A complete restoration is impossible; there will be some traces, but you won't be able to tell unless you look closely."

Hua Yan raised her chin slightly, and Qiu Bao began to recover.

Haha! Qiu Bao is being too conservative with his words. Judging from Hua Yan's level, it's impossible to tell that the safe has been tampered with. It seems Qiu Bao used something like peach gum to restore the safe to its original state.

However, Hua Yan didn't leave; she was worried that these things might still be found elsewhere. Now she didn't need to search for them herself; she could just follow these people.

Watching Ono Kawashima and the others finally come up with a plan to open the secret door, they then began to carefully cut the secret door.

Hua Yan, seeing how they were working, figured they wouldn't finish anytime soon. Afraid that Liu Liang and the others would worry, Hua Yan went to let them know she was safe.

"Jiu'er, are you alright? Why can't we get out?"

"Uncle Liang, this is a barrier. You can see outside, but those outside can't see you."

I went to check, and they've found the location and are trying to get it out!

"Jiu'er, if it's a biological weapon that threatens our country, we must destroy it."

"Hehe! I've already got the real thing; now they want the good stuff I put inside."

"Ah! Great!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then we must arrest them and let the state try them."

Xia Jiu felt he couldn't let these people off easily.

“We arrest them, but we have no evidence to convict them.”

"Then kill them all here, since they are all guilty anyway."

"I don't know if they've hidden anything else elsewhere. Let's observe first. Killing them might not be the best approach; making them suffer a fate worse than death might be more satisfying."

The medicine Hua Yan put in will allow these people to enjoy themselves.

While Hua Yan was speaking, another commotion came from the other side. Soon, cheers erupted; they had obtained the item.

Hua Yan flashed out of the barrier again to take a closer look at the ugly faces of these bastards.

"Sir, we really found it! That's great! We will make sure that the humiliation China has brought us is returned with interest this time."

Kappei Yamaguchi looked at the safe in front of him, his voice trembling with excitement.

“Yamaguchi-kun, you’re right. Once we hand the things over to Ito-kun, we can fulfill our long-cherished wish.”

Onogawajima hadn't expected the mission to go so smoothly.

"Sir, should we open it and take a look?"

"No need. The serial number on this safe matches the one the government gave us, so there's no problem."

"Should we defuse this bomb? It's dangerous to carry it like this."

"Ito-kun, I'm leaving this task to you."

Onogawajima looked at the people behind him.

"Okay! Let me see."

Junji Ito examined the safe closely.

"Sir, this bomb can only be completely defused by opening the combination lock."

"But the password is with Chief Abe, and it would be against regulations for us to ask for it rashly."

Onogawajima was in a bit of a dilemma.

"Then what should we do? Should we ask Chief Abe to come over?"

"It can only be this way."

Next came the dial tone. It was probably a satellite phone, because in these deep mountains and forests, ordinary telephones have no signal at all. Even back in my previous life, when telephones were common, the signal in mountainous areas was poor because signal receiving equipment was scarce.

After the call connected, the other party agreed to come immediately. Onogawajima had the safe put back in its original position to avoid any collision.

Two hours later, someone went out to meet them. Half an hour later, two people came in.

"Commander-in-Chief Abe, thank you for your hard work."

"It's alright! I'll dedicate myself to the empire."

This new Abe is named Abe no Seimei.

After some fiddling, the safe was opened, and Junji Ito defused the bomb, revealing the test tubes inside. Everyone couldn't contain their excitement.
