Ma Chao tightly held the certificate handed to him by Lin Hui and walked towards the inspecting officers and soldiers with steady steps.

When he walked to the checkpoint, the person in charge of inspection just casually glanced at the document in his hand, and immediately waved to let him pass, even skipping the basic questioning and inspection steps.

Yu Ning, who was standing by and witnessing this scene, could not help but exclaimed: "The influence of the Lin family here is really extraordinary! They were able to pass through the defense line so smoothly with just a piece of ID. But then again, with such a high status of their family, why did they only bring so few people with them this time? If we hadn't helped them, they would have died in that deserted suburb."

After saying that, Yu Ning shook his head, with a trace of regret on his face.

Hearing Yu Ning's words, Ma Chao's mouth corners slightly raised, and he laughed softly, then said slowly: "You should have heard of the saying 'a tiger in troubled times is bullied by a dog', right?"

"Of course I've heard of it. I also know the saying 'A phoenix without its feathers is no better than a chicken.'" Yu Ning responded quickly.

At this time, Qi Feng on the side also came over and interjected: "Hey, there is also the saying 'A powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake' which is also very classic."

Several people smiled at each other, the atmosphere was relaxed and happy. In this way, two more days passed while they talked and laughed.

Finally, Jiang Jiyun and the team he led arrived not far from their destination and stopped temporarily to rest.

After passing several checkpoints, the group of people finally entered the city gate exhausted.

However, shortly after they entered the city, a car suddenly rushed out and stopped their car.

Ma Chao and the others immediately became alert, their eyes fixed on the two men in cotton-padded clothes. They looked serious, but behaved politely.

At this time, one of them walked quickly to the car window, bowed slightly, and asked very politely: "Excuse me, are you from Young Master Jiang's house?"

Ma Chao's heart tightened, and after thinking for a moment, he responded, "Are you sent by Master Lin Hui's family?"

When the two men heard Ma Chao mention their young master's name, their tense faces suddenly relaxed, revealing a hint of joyful smiles, and nodded repeatedly in response: "That's right! That's right! My young master told us to wait here two days ago. If we see anyone from Master Jiang's mansion entering the city, we must immediately invite everyone back to the mansion."

When Ma Chao heard this, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

He was silent for a moment, then said calmly but firmly, "I'm really sorry, both of you. We were in a hurry this time and didn't plan to stay here for too long. Besides, the weather is getting colder, and we have to continue visiting relatives and friends, so I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Lin."

The older man couldn't help but become anxious when he saw Ma Chao's direct refusal.

He hurriedly stepped forward and explained quickly, "Sir, please don't be so quick to refuse! My young master has specifically told you that he will not delay your journey. I just want to ask the little doctor to save one person. Regardless of whether the rescue is successful in the end, my Lin family will definitely give you a generous gift to express our gratitude!"

"Brother Ma, in my opinion, you should come with us! It won't be easy for us to escape now." Jiang Jiyun looked to the left worriedly. Perhaps they stayed here a little too long, because not far away a group of Japanese soldiers were slowly marching towards them in neat steps.

"Uncle Zhong, please move faster and take your guests away from here. Look, there is a group of Japanese coming this way!" A young man hurriedly ran up, grabbed Uncle Zhong's arm tightly and pulled him into the car.

Seeing this, Ma Chao said, "Okay, we'll follow you."

Uncle Zhong returned to the car when he heard that they agreed. Xu Fan started the car without hesitation, and after starting the engine, he followed closely behind the car in front.

Just as they drove away from the place, the group of Japanese soldiers went to the side and watched the departing vehicles, but they just stared for a short while and then continued their daily patrol work.

Jiang Jiyun narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the Japanese patrol team that was gradually moving away, and couldn't help but sigh deeply: "I really didn't expect that these Japanese troops would dare to patrol this street so brazenly! Could it be that they really regard this place as their own territory?"

When Yu Ning and others heard this, they all fell silent, because they all knew that this land had now completely fallen into the hands of the Japanese devils.

After driving for a while, the car arrived at a large iron gate with a guard standing there.

"We're back. Open the door to welcome our guests." Uncle Zhong shouted outside.

Ma Chao's car stopped shortly after Uncle Zhong and the others drove in. Jiang Jiyun was carried out of the car by Hu Dahe and saw Lin Hui, wearing a suit and glasses, greeting them at the gate with a smile on his face.

"You are finally here. I have asked Uncle Zhong to wait there for two days. From the moment I knew you entered Harbin, I knew your time was almost up. Please come in!" Lin Hui invited them into the house.

After Jiang Jiyun was carried into the house, she felt that the house was very warm. She looked around with wide eyes in surprise. Could it be that there were radiators in this era?

Ma Chao frowned as he looked at Lin Hui's house and the guards in the yard. He was certain in his heart that Lin Hui was not the son of the regiment commander.

"Someone, come and serve the tea and snacks so that the guests can fill their stomachs first." Lin Hui shouted loudly.

Lin Hui turned around and was about to ask them to sit down. At this time, several women came out from the stairs. Leading them was the lady from that day, and the women behind her started chattering and asking questions.

"Which one is the miracle doctor?"

"Why are you still drinking tea? Go and see the general!"

"Why are there so many people here all of a sudden?"

……

Mrs. Lin's face turned ugly because of the noise. She shouted, "Shut up, go back to your rooms, you'd better pray that the master is okay, otherwise you will be buried with him."

When the four or five women heard this, their faces changed, and they shut their mouths and ran back.

Jiang Jiyun widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly in disbelief, and looked straight at the group of gorgeously dressed women.

These charming and unique women are actually the concubines of Lin Hui's father?

This is too incredible! How can a man with so many wives and concubines have the energy and time to manage military affairs? Could it be that...

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiyun's heart sank. Oh, yes, this is an enemy-occupied area, and it has long been in the hands of the enemy. Then, is Lin Hui's father a puppet of those devils? Is he a traitor? Once this idea came into being, it spread like wild grass in Jiang Jiyun's mind.

At this moment, Mrs. Lin, who had been silent all the time, coughed lightly and said with some apology: "I'm so sorry to have embarrassed you all. Those things are really not presentable and are really inappropriate." Although her voice was soft, there was a hint of helplessness and embarrassment in it.
