Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter Eleven: The Approaching Truth

Muttering "idiot" under his breath, Ye Shaohong lifted his foot and took a step, as if to leave.

Just then, two doctors and a nurse walked in, followed by two field staff from the operations department.

It's clear that neither of them has a high level of military skill.

Despite knowing Zhao Xiufen's special status, they did not check or search her when escorting the doctors and nurses into the room.

Just let the person in directly.

Throughout the entire ordeal, neither of them drew the guns tucked into their waistbands.

Seeing that relaxed and languid demeanor, Ye Shaohong frowned slightly, and his initial thought of leaving vanished instantly. "Wait a minute!"

"Who let you in? Were you searched?"

Ye Shaohong shifted his foot and, at the last moment, managed to stop the doctor and nurse who were about to enter.

His probing questions left the doctors and nurses speechless.

"search?"

"We're here to rescue people, do we need to be searched?"

After a brief moment of silence, one of the doctors, who seemed to be the leader, stepped forward and asked the question that had been bothering him.

As soon as he said this, Ye Shaohong roughly understood what had happened.

First of all, these two field agents from the Special Service certainly did not know Zhao Xiufen's identity, let alone her importance; they simply regarded her as an ordinary suspect.

That's why they acted so casually and lazily. And these doctors and nurses, when they came to accept the assignment, didn't ask any questions or inquire about the details.

They treated it as a routine medical rescue mission.

Having figured out the reasons and events involved, Ye Shaohong finally felt relieved.

His expression softened.

His gaze fell, and he first carefully observed and sized up the three people before smiling and opening his mouth to respond.

"Do not misunderstand!"

"I don't mean to treat you as prisoners. It's just that the patient you are about to treat has a special identity. He is a wanted criminal whom our intelligence agency is urgently trying to capture."

"She is carrying the weight of a major case, and we must keep her alive until the truth of the case is revealed."

That's why the review process is stricter.

"You are all reasonable people, and you should be able to understand our predicament."

Don't be fooled by Ye Shaohong's nice words; a closer look reveals that he's simply softened his tone.

In practice, they remain unyielding.

“I see…”

"Alright, we know how hard you work, and of course we're willing to cooperate with your work."

The two doctors exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes. Even though they were elites of the time, they dared not offend these wolves and tigers from the Special Service.

As for the nurse, her opinion is completely unimportant.

Ye Shaohong did not go to see her.

When the two doctors reached an agreement, they instinctively ignored her opinion.

This really worried the young nurse. The two doctors were both men, so being searched wouldn't have caused them any harm, but she was different; she was still an unmarried young woman waiting to be married.

While her job and life are important, her reputation is also very important.

If she were to be searched by these filthy secret service men today, her reputation would be ruined.

Who would dare marry her in the future?

"no!"

"No body search allowed. If you insist on doing it, I'm quitting."

"I'm quitting. You can find someone else."

As they were talking, the nurse turned around and started walking downstairs.

But she still underestimated the situation.

How could someone being targeted by the secret service possibly leave so easily?

Two pistols were immediately pressed against the nurse's forehead.

"go back!"

"If you dare take another step forward, I'll kill you!"

The two special agents who escorted them realized their carelessness after hearing Ye Shaohong's words.

They were all so shocked they broke out in a cold sweat.

It's like they've just barely escaped death, and now they're living in constant fear.

They feared that Ye Shaohong would seize upon their mistakes and punish them severely according to the secret service's rules.

In this situation, how could they possibly let the nurse leave?

With two guns pointed directly at her forehead, the nurse's face immediately turned pale, her body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.

She was on the verge of breaking down and crying.

"okay."

"Since she doesn't want to get involved, let her go, but don't let her leave."

"First, find two people to keep an eye on her."

After making his decision, Ye Shaohong raised his arm and spread his palm out towards the doctor who had just spoken.

This person is quite clever and sensible.

He immediately stepped forward, spreading his arms wide, indicating that he would allow Ye Shaohong to search him.

"Let me do it. You're a student who hasn't even graduated yet, do you even know what a body search is?"

Zhao Jianzhi approached as soon as Ye Shaohong stopped the doctors and nurses. He had been observing coldly as Ye Shaohong moved around. Only when they were about to take action did Zhao Jianzhi step forward.

"Then I'll have to trouble Vice Captain Zhao."

Ye Shaohong would certainly not refuse if someone was willing to take responsibility, especially since this simpleton, though a bit slow-witted, was reliable.

Otherwise, Zheng Yaoxian wouldn't have considered him a confidant.

They've stayed by my side for many years.

"Humph!"

"Learn a little bit."

Zhao Jianzhi was stubborn and refused to admit his true intentions, even though he had already expressed goodwill to Ye Shaohong.

Ye Shaohong did not pursue the matter further.

He simply stood quietly to the side, watching Zhao Jianzhi search the doctor who had spoken.

During this break, Ye Shaohong also inquired about his profession and his position in the hospital.

Upon learning that this man was actually the chief surgeon at St. Mary's Church Hospital and had even treated General Zhang Zhizhong, Ye Shaohong immediately felt great respect for him.

They became somewhat closer during their conversation.

It's a case of loving the house because of the house; after all, the man had treated General Zhang Zhizhong, and for that reason alone, Ye Shaohong deserved to treat him with respect.

After a brief conversation with the doctor, Ye Shaohong took the opportunity to inquire about the identity and position of another person.

But the result was beyond Ye Shaohong's expectations.

Upon being questioned by Ye Shaohong, the man's expression immediately revealed a hint of panic.

Ye Shaohong didn't take it seriously at first.

I thought he was just timid and cowardly, which is why he panicked for a moment.

But just then, the doctor who spoke first uttered a sentence that made Ye Shaohong immediately narrow his eyes.

This doctor, whose behavior was somewhat eccentric, had actually returned from studying medicine in Japan and had been working at St. Mary's Church Hospital for less than three years.

This is interesting.

Ye Shaohong had previously suspected that there might be accomplices of Zhao Xiufen secretly hiding inside St. Mary's Church Hospital.

It was thanks to that person's help that Zhao Xiufen learned in advance that the Special Service Department was coming to arrest her, allowing her to move and hide.

Ye Shaohong is trying to figure out how to find this person.

Unexpectedly, someone came to them on their own initiative.

"Is it a coincidence?"

"Or did he already know from others that Zhao Xiufen had fallen into our hands, and he came here specifically to gather information?" "He couldn't possibly be here to kill her to cover it up, could he? Judging from his behavior, he doesn't seem that bold!"

With too few clues to confirm the truth for the time being, Ye Shaohong did not show it, nor did he tell Zhao Jianzhi his guesses and thoughts, so that he would be on guard.

Ye Shaohong simply kept his doubts to himself.

They began to secretly observe the young doctor's demeanor and behavior, while subtly inquiring about the two doctors' work experience at the hospital from the older, more senior doctor.

During this conversation, Zhao Jianzhi had already completed the body search.

The two doctors from St. Mary's Church Hospital were finally allowed to enter the director's office, where they saw Zhao Xiufen lying on the ground, already unconscious.

Naturally, they also saw Zhao Xiufen's face covered in blood and her hands trembling slightly...
