After Cheng Ying came out of the door, since she was currently invisible, she felt safe to continue observing her surroundings. She remembered that this was the second floor, and after checking two more doors in the hallway, she found that they were dormitory rooms and there was nothing of importance there.

There was a third floor upstairs. Cheng Ying ran up to the third floor without hesitation. This third floor seemed to be a dormitory, but it was where high-ranking officers lived. There were single rooms all over the place. These Japanese devils really know how to enjoy themselves. He looked around but didn't see anything special, so he left. When he passed the conference room on the second floor, he found that the people there were still inside.

It seemed they weren't going to sleep tonight. She thought for a moment and suddenly had a good idea. "Since you're not going to sleep, then I'll let you sleep!" As she spoke, she took out a sleeping pill from her spatial storage and threw it into the conference room, then kindly closed the door.

After leaving the building, Cheng Ying searched elsewhere, eventually ending up in front of a row of bungalows. This area was clearly soldiers' quarters, but there wasn't much to see. When she reached the last room, she heard barking dogs. Looking around, she saw that they were Japanese military dogs, all kept in iron cages. These dogs were well-cared for, with plump heads, shiny coats, and clearly very well-fed. Cheng Ying didn't leave any of them; she knew dogs have a keen sense of smell, and she was afraid they would spot her even if she hid!

After Cheng Ying left the area, she knew she had to hurry; the later she arrived, the greater the chance of being discovered. She evaded patrols and finally reached the prison cells. This place truly lived up to its reputation as a prison, with each small room welded with iron bars. And each room held different prisoners, who were believed to be some of the country's elites and revolutionaries!

Cheng Ying had to find a way to rescue them. There were many rooms and many prisoners here, and she didn't know where the underground intelligence agent she was looking for was being held by those bastards from the Japanese army. Cheng Ying carefully moved through the cells, searching for traces of the underground intelligence agent. She softly called out the person's name, hoping to get a response.

Suddenly, she heard a faint cough coming from not far away. Cheng Ying was overjoyed and walked in the direction of the sound.

Found her! The imprisoned intelligence officer looked haggard, but her eyes still shone with determination. She looked around but didn't see anyone, yet she heard her name being called. Cheng Ying realized it was a woman; she had initially forgotten to ask the commander if the intelligence officer was male or female. How careless of her!

Cheng Ying tried calling her name again—no, it should be her code name, "Eagle, is that you?" The intelligence officer named Eagle looked around again, puzzled, but still couldn't see anyone. She asked warily, "Who's calling me? Where are you?" To be on the safe side, Cheng Ying didn't show herself, but instead asked Eagle, "Have you eaten today? What did you eat?" Eagle replied, "I ate dumplings today, with egg and chive filling." That's right, this was a code word; only in this way could they know if she was the one they were really trying to rescue.

"Do you know that everyone imprisoned here is one of our people? Are there any traitors who have infiltrated here? Or people who have already betrayed the organization?" The intelligence officer named Eagle, although she couldn't see the other party, still answered, "In the time I've been here, I haven't found anyone who has betrayed our organization. That's what I can guarantee right now." After hearing her answer, Cheng Ying thought for a moment and quickly formulated a rescue plan.

Cheng Ying glanced at the door that was holding the intelligence agents. A large chain was wrapped around it, and a heavy padlock hung below. Now wasn't the time to break down the door; she needed to find the key first. Just then, she remembered—she had a master key in her spatial storage. She wondered if it would work. With that thought, she took out the key, and to her surprise, it clicked open!
