Commander Li began, "A few days ago, a traditional Chinese medicine shop in Peng City bought forty catties of wild Ganoderma lucidum and a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. According to surveillance footage, it was this young girl who sold them. She made a total of 2.322 million RMB. Then she bought a car and went shopping and bought a lot of things."

Political Commissar Lin scrolled down, and below was Lin Xiaoqian's bank statement.

Commander Li continued, "The owner of that Chinese medicine shop said that the wild ginseng was given to the girl by her boyfriend in Northeast China, and that she used the money from selling it to buy a house in the city. But according to our investigation, the girl has never had a boyfriend in her life."

Chen Yuan scratched the back of his head and explained, "Xiao Qian said that the Ganoderma lucidum and wild ginseng were brought back from the primitive world."

Commander Li nodded and continued, "After the young lady bought the car, she drove it directly from the dealership. According to the surveillance footage, she drove the one million yuan car to a remote wooded area on the outskirts of the city. After that, she walked alone to the street, took a taxi to another dealership, bought an electric scooter, and drove it back."

If Lin Xiaoqian were here, she would definitely be sweating profusely. She thought she had hidden herself quite well, but she didn't expect there to be flaws everywhere. It was only because she told the country about the system in time that she was able to keep up this behavior. Otherwise, if she had continued, someone would have found out sooner or later.

"However, that tram was vandalized the day before yesterday. We've already reported it to the police, and the police station has opened a case."

Chen Yuan and Political Commissar Lin were somewhat shocked: "Huh? How could this happen? Who did it?"

Commander Li frowned and said, "It's her aunt."

Chen Yuan was somewhat incredulous: "Could a relative really do something like this?"

Commander Li said with some difficulty in explaining, "Her aunt-in-law is a scoundrel."

Political Commissar Lin flipped through Lin Xiaoqian's file, then pulled it up to the photo of the scratched car taken by the police.

He sighed and said, "The girl's parents passed away when she was in elementary school, making her an orphan. Her grandmother raised her alone, and they lived a very frugal life. Now that she's suddenly opened a shop and bought a car right after graduation, some narrow-minded people are bound to be jealous."

Chen Yuan's face darkened as he looked at the pink electric scooter in the picture, which was covered in graffiti and obscene language. He asked, "Where is Xiao Qian's aunt now?"

Chen Yuan has a daughter who is about the same age as Lin Xiaoqian. He likes Lin Xiaoqian very much. She is fair-skinned, delicate, and patriotic.

In his heart, it was already difficult enough for the little girl to struggle to grow up. She hadn't even had two good days before it was ruined by people like this. It was infuriating. Old Chen couldn't stand people like this.

In other words, he doesn't hit women. If it were a man, he would beat her up right now.

"He's being held in custody at the police station."

Commander Li knew his subordinate's temperament and added, "Don't worry, the young lady is shrewd. The evidence is conclusive, and the damage assessment has already exceeded five thousand. She will definitely be judged."

Chen Yuan was somewhat indignant: "Commander, Xiao Qian is now a key person we need to protect. Her aunt is a serious threat to Xiao Qian's life. I suggest that we detain that woman for a few more years, preferably for the rest of her life."

Commander Li and Political Commissar Lin: ...

Fortunately, both of them knew Chen Yuan's strong sense of justice and didn't criticize his suggestion, but they also didn't object.

Commander Li continued, "Then yesterday, the surveillance footage showed that the young girl drove that million-dollar car to the county, bought some chicken legs and a deep fryer, and then disappeared again. And that million-dollar car is now parked in front of your military region."

Chen Yuan thought for a moment and then explained, "Xiao Qian said she has a space, so the car must have been put into her space. As for the chicken leg fryer, that must have been a task she had in the magic world."

"A magical world? She went to a magical world in the last small world?" Commander Li asked.

Chen Yuan grinned and said, "Yes, the magical world. Xiao Qian brought back a lot of good things from the magical world. There's even a crystal ball to test magical talent. Political Commissar Lin and I both took the test, and we both have magical talent. Even in our battalion, a third of the soldiers have magical talent."

Upon hearing this, Commander Li's expression immediately turned serious.

This Chen Yuan is so unreliable. Although the documents haven't been released yet, the matter concerning Lin Xiaoqian is definitely an extremely important secret.

Chen Yuan tested the magical talents of the entire battalion like that; he was far too careless!

Seeing that Commander Li's expression was off, Political Commissar Lin quickly tried to cover it up: "It was just a magic trick for them, a test for fun, I didn't say anything."

After hearing Political Commissar Lin's words, Commander Li's expression softened slightly. The reason for sending Lin Wei here as political commissar was to prevent Chen Yuan from being unreliable. Since he said it was alright, then it must be alright.

Commander Li glanced at Chen Yuan and quickly understood his ulterior motives.

Pointing at Chen Yuan, he laughed and scolded, "You soldier, you were a troublemaker when you were a greenhorn, and now that you're a battalion commander, you're still a handful."

Chen Yuan just grinned foolishly.

Commander Li did not delve further into this topic, after all, Lin Xiaoqian was from his Eastern Theater Command.

No matter what kind of experiment the country wants to conduct, the Eastern Theater Command certainly cannot be left behind; not only can it not be left behind, but it must also be at the forefront.

Chen Yuan was also his subordinate, a soldier he had personally trained.

He felt reassured that the first test zone of the Eastern Theater Command was placed under Chen Yuan's jurisdiction.

"Alright, did the young lady say when the next interdimensional travel will be?" Commander Li asked.

Lin Xiaoqian did indeed tell Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan knew about it.

"Xiao Qian said it was 96 hours after she returned to our world. Oh, right, she came back around 1:30 pm today."

Commander Li frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "I want to meet the young lady in person."

He needs to ask more questions about this interdimensional travel before he can make any arrangements.

It was already past 5 p.m.

Lin Xiaoqian was taken by Jiang Shuang to a small canteen. There was no one else in the canteen, but the food looked pretty good.

Jiang Shuang kindly told her to pick whatever she wanted to eat, and Lin Xiaoqian didn't stand on ceremony; she was indeed hungry after a whole afternoon of fussing around.

The two got their food and found a place to sit down.

Neither of them had the habit of not speaking while eating or sleeping, so the two started chatting.

Jiang Shuang asked most of the questions, and Lin Xiaoqian answered them. The two had a very pleasant conversation over the meal.

After the meal, Jiang Shuang took her to an empty office, told her to rest there for a while, and then left.

Jiang Shuang went to Commander Li's office, where only Commander Li was present.

Commander Li asked Jiang Shuang with a smile, "How is it?"

Jiang Shuang recalled her recent interaction with Lin Xiaoqian and said, "Ms. Lin seemed to have no guard up and was very open with me. She didn't seem to be lying, and she had a natural affinity for the country. She's just a bit simple-minded." She's not cunning at all.

The last sentence was added in her mind.

Commander Li nodded and said, "It seems you get along well with her."

He stood up: "Let's go, take me to see her."

Jiang Shuang was somewhat surprised that the commander had actually gone there in person.

Commander Li noticed her expression and said with a smile, "She has a sincere patriotic heart and is admirable for entrusting such an important thing to the country. It's nothing to go and see her in person."
