Step by step, a gentle breeze leads to a smooth path

"Comrade Song Tingnan, have you taken care of things when you went home?"

"done."

"Where's your boyfriend? Bring him over to meet us."

"I'm single."

"Uh?" If he weren't older, old enough to be Tingnan's father, this conversation would be impossible. He was chasing after a girl asking about her boyfriend, and he even breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that her engagement had fallen through. "Comrade Song Tingnan, it's like this, if you're not going to get married in the next two years, there's a task for you to see if you're willing to accept."

"Premier, you said I don't have a boyfriend right now, and no one in my family is pressuring me to get married. I won't get married within the next two years." Song Tingnan straightened her posture. She was somewhat averse to marriage and felt that it was better to be alone without any constraints.

"Okay! That's right, the border needs people. That place is very complicated and dangerous, a no-man's-land. Committing crimes is a minor matter, but now enemy agents are infiltrating our country from there. Intelligence from the border indicates that those people want to do something big, such as smuggling people over or bribing our people to spread the virus."

The virus infection is very serious; if we are not careful, our entire nation will be plunged into crisis. Border fortifications are difficult to defend against, and after discussion, we are preparing to turn the tide.

"You're skilled in both combat and medicine, and you understand multiple languages, even lip reading. Old Dai recommended you to the higher-ups." The Premier paused, then added, "This mission is very dangerous. Even your comrades can't guarantee 100% that infiltration has been successful. You're only 23 years old, aren't you? And you'll need to live under an assumed name. I don't know if you can accept this?"

"Hide your identity? What will you tell your family? Are you dead or a traitor?" Song Tingnan didn't want her family to suffer that kind of pain again.

The Prime Minister gave an awkward laugh, "Ahem...you kid, we promise that what happened to your uncle will never happen again, and we will never let your family live like that again. We'll just say you've gone abroad for further studies, a closed-door training program, and when you come back, we'll promote you."

"Okay, when do we depart? What about the other comrades? And what is my role?"

“You’re all operating alone. There’s a code word for contact when you get to the destination. But even if you make contact, you’ll have to verify whether the other person is a human or a ghost. Your identity isn’t exactly safe.” The Prime Minister handed over a document with some embarrassment. “Memorize this document in my office and then destroy it.”

Song Tingnan took the thin piece of paper, raised an eyebrow, and thought, "This is really not good!"

Who are the people who cross the border the most? Drug traffickers! Then there are those who traffic women and children. Once they are trafficked, they can be taken out of the country in a few hours, and once they get there, it is very difficult to rescue them.

Now, enemy countries are taking advantage of the chaos to try and bring the virus into the country, making it truly difficult for border troops to prevent. The troops stationed at the border serve two purposes: to receive reinforcements from the front lines and to prevent unrest on the border. However, they cannot set foot on the border, nor can they fire first.

"Are you trying to get us to infiltrate our ranks?"

"Yes, that's the fastest way. You guys break up into smaller groups and each get information using your own abilities. Cough cough, you need to cut your hair and change your style drastically."

"I know, he's the reckless devil, right, boss? How many women are in our group?"

"Uh... just you!" The Prime Minister touched his nose sheepishly. "Please understand, we really couldn't find a more suitable candidate."

“Okay, I’ll follow the arrangements. As the great man said, ‘Women hold up half the sky’!” Song Tingnan shrugged. In front of Li Yaqi and Chu Yile, she couldn’t vent her negative feelings, but things were really unfair to women. There was no support from above, which made her very disappointed.

The Premier was well aware that Song Tingnan was unhappy. Regarding the negative comments caused by the last mission, he couldn't forcefully suppress them, so he could only offer small, indirect help, such as taking photos together and reminding his subordinates to keep an eye on her. This time, he also had Tingnan disguised as a man to protect her as much as possible and prevent further gossip.

"Will we be given any poison?" Song Tingnan was watching spy movies; before an operation, everyone would receive a poison pill.
