195: Medication control, leave temporarily

"Did you notice anything?"

Jiang Chuan only thought Peng Liu's parents seemed unusual, but he didn't know what was actually going on.

"Yes, I feel like they are being controlled by some kind of potion."

Qin Aotian nodded solemnly and slowly spoke those words.

"Controlled by a potion?"

Jiang Chuan immediately frowned upon hearing this.

"Yes, a year ago we carried out a mission in Japan. At that time, we went to meet our undercover agent. We found him, and he gave us intelligence about Japan. I noticed then that his condition was exactly the same as this couple's, but I didn't suspect him at the time. After receiving the intelligence he passed on, we walked straight into an ambush in Japan. In that battle, out of a dozen of us, only I and one other comrade managed to escape and survive."

Qin Aotian knew Jiang Chuan's background and that his identity had the highest level of confidentiality, so he spoke without hesitation about the situation he had encountered back then.

"Because the people of Japan didn't know how many of us had entered their country, they just assumed all of us had been killed, and they didn't search for me or the other comrade who had luckily survived."

"We contacted home and quickly received support. Personnel from home were preparing to transfer us out."

"Before the transfer, we prepared to take the traitor with us."

"Just as we were about to take the traitor, he knew there was no way to secretly pass on a message, so he tried to openly send a message to Japan right in front of us. Luckily, we stopped him in time, knocked him unconscious, and brought him back home."

"After returning, we conducted a detailed examination of this traitor, but we couldn't find any problems."

"It wasn't until one day, after this traitor died mysteriously, that doctors discovered his entire brain had been eaten away. They then speculated that the traitor had been controlled by a potion, one that was difficult to detect and could even transform into insects that devoured the brain."

Qin Aotian continued, his expression growing increasingly serious as he reached the end of his account.

"Brain devoured?"

Jiang Chuan's face also grew increasingly grim upon hearing this.

"Bio-agent."

A term flashed through Jiang Chuan's mind.

"Is there a solution now?"

Jiang Chuan looked at Qin Aotian in front of him and asked directly.

"There is no method at all. Even the doctors couldn't find any issues back then. It was only when the traitor's brain was eaten by insects that they suspected he might have been controlled by a type of bio-agent. In the past year, we haven't encountered this situation again, so naturally, we haven't been able to research a solution."

Qin Aotian shook his head and said with a wry smile.

Jiang Chuan nodded solemnly after hearing Qin Aotian's words.

If the individuals were truly controlled by a bio-agent that could transform into insects to devour the brain and cause death, they absolutely could not alert the enemy. Otherwise, once they were exposed or discovered, the controlled individuals would truly be in danger.

"Tell Director Long about this matter. I will have people come over to investigate the specific situation. We must avoid alerting the enemy and ensure we are not discovered."

Jiang Chuan spoke these solemn words to Qin Aotian beside him.

"Alright."

Qin Aotian agreed upon hearing Jiang Chuan's instructions and immediately informed Director Long of the situation.

Director Long was aware of the incident a year ago and hadn't expected this situation to appear in Huaxia as well. It seemed that personnel from Japan had truly entered Huaxia. He immediately instructed Qin Aotian to avoid alerting the enemy and absolutely not disturb the Japanese personnel, as any civilian deaths would be their failure.

Qin Aotian naturally agreed, while also urging Director Long to find a solution as quickly as possible.

Director Long naturally understood the severity of the matter and immediately agreed.

That night was calm and uneventful.

Jiang Chuan and his group encountered nothing and faced no dangers.

When Peng Liu woke up, Jiang Chuan did not tell her that her parents were controlled, only that they were in danger, and that to save them, she absolutely could not expose the situation.

Peng Liu turned pale upon learning her parents were in danger, but she sighed in relief when she heard Jiang Chuan could save them.

"Alright, Young Master Jiang, I will listen to you."

Peng Liu immediately agreed.

Under the guidance of Jiang Chuan and the others, the group followed Peng Liu back to her home to say goodbye.

"Alright, safe travels."

Peng Liu's parents readily agreed once they knew Peng Liu and the others were leaving due to work.

"Let's go."

Jiang Chuan said this to the people around him, and the group immediately drove out of the small county town.

"Have they left?"

Inside an office at the school, a man said coldly.

"Yes, they have all left. Their daughter noticed something unusual, but the others didn't detect any issues."

"It seems our product still has some flaws; those close to the subjects can still detect abnormalities. If that's the case, then leave all of them behind to become our test subjects."

The man in the office immediately gave this cold command upon hearing the report.

"Young Master Miyamoto, keeping them here might expose our location. We have already investigated that woman's situation; she is a major internet celebrity in Huaxia. If she disappears, it might attract attention, and the Huaxia Official Authorities might follow the clues to find this county town."

"Hmm?"

Young Master Miyamoto frowned upon hearing this, his expression looking somewhat unpleasant. He hadn't expected the target to be an internet celebrity.

Young Master Miyamoto knew that Huaxia's internet celebrities wielded some influence, and if one truly went missing for too long, it would definitely be noticed.

"Young Master Miyamoto, that woman has started a live stream."

The middle-aged man standing next to Young Master Miyamoto had been monitoring Peng Liu precisely to keep track of her movements.

"Go in and take a look. If she has truly leaked information about this place, then keep her. If she hasn't leaked any news, then don't make a move for now."

"Hello everyone, my fans and friends! My family matters have been settled, and my parents are doing well. I will resume normal streaming starting now, and I will stream every evening from now on."

After Peng Liu started her live stream, she informed her fans of the situation.

"It seems they haven't been exposed. If that's the case, let them leave. Don't alert the enemy."

Young Master Miyamoto learned the contents of the live stream and finally made his decision, choosing not to keep Jiang Chuan and his group behind.

After Jiang Chuan and the others took Peng Liu to the city center, they instructed her to stream normally for the foreseeable future, not to expose anything, and assured her they would rescue her family as quickly as possible.

Peng Liu could only agree, praying that Jiang Chuan and his group would be able to save her family.
