611: The task has been successfully completed.

These weren't particularly powerful bombs, and Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing quickly disarmed them.

“Alright, you are safe now.”

Hearing this, the five hostages burst into tears.

Zhu Jiu raised her head and looked at Xiao Niannian standing before her.

This elder sister is a Soldier; she is so amazing.

She disarmed the bomb so quickly.

She wants to be as amazing as this elder sister; she also wants to become a Soldier.

“Wuwuwu.”

The two children started crying, and Zhu Jiu looked at Xiao Niannian.

“Sister, I want to join the military.”

Xiao Niannian looked at Zhu Jiu. The information she had seen stated there were two little boys, one young man, and two middle-aged or elderly men, one of whom was a Researcher, specializing in crops and related fields.

Zhu Jiu is a girl.

The information provided by the Public Security Bureau hadn't been clearly verified.

“It's a wonderful idea that you have. Study hard, and exercise more in the future...”

Xiao Niannian instructed Zhu Jiu.

“Sister, what is your name?”

“Xiao Niannian. The 'Xiao' with the grass radical, and the 'Nian' meaning to miss someone.”

Hearing this, Zhu Jiu looked at Xiao Niannian. She vowed to remember this elder sister's appearance, certain that they would meet again someday.

“I've memorized it, Sister. I will definitely see you again in the future.”

Once she returned, she would definitely ask her family to help her look up Sister Xiao Niannian, find out which Military Unit she belonged to, and make sure her family went to present a banner of thanks... to properly thank Sister Xiao and these Soldier comrades.

Xiao Niannian heard the sound of someone falling from the second floor.

She and Lu Jing both rushed out of the cellar and into the courtyard.

Xiao Niannian saw a person lying on the ground, their head covered in blood.

“Don't move.”

Outside the door, there was a sound of knocking.

“Chen Qi, why was there a gunshot at your house? What happened?”

Chen Qi was pinned down, grunting as he tried to speak.

Lu Jing looked at Military Doctor Shen and gave him a signal.

Military Doctor Shen was wearing a regular suit at the moment. He opened the door slightly and spoke in Mandarin with an unhappy tone.

“The gun went off accidentally. It's nothing. Please go back and rest, and don't disturb us.”

There were no lights in the courtyard, and several lights in the house were turned off, so the villagers couldn't see anything clearly.

“Alright, then we'll go back to rest.”

“Wait, where is Chen Qi?”

“Chen Qi drank too much.”

The villagers knew Chen Qi loved to drink and sometimes got drunk, so they didn't think much of it.

Chen Qi hadn't expected these people to be able to fool the villagers. He panicked and struggled desperately, but his mouth was gagged with cloth, preventing him from speaking.

The moment he tried to move, someone struck him, and he immediately passed out.

After Military Doctor Shen closed the courtyard gate, he walked toward the living room. All the criminals were now tied up.

Now they planned to leave through the back courtyard, taking the people with them.

After returning inside the house, Lu Jing gave orders and made arrangements.

Xiao Niannian spoke with the children, telling them to remain quiet, and the other two men also nodded.

They had thought they were surely going to die, but unexpectedly, the military mobilized and rescued them without any casualties.

“Withdraw.”

Lu Jing led the team out of the back courtyard and headed toward the mountains.

Meng Ning and the others at Sister-in-law Chen's house received the instruction and also led their people toward the mountains.

Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing were at the very back of the team.

Watching the Team Members enter the mountains, Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing exchanged a glance and walked toward the mountains.

Chen Qi and his associates were tightly bound and gagged. They had thought they could get the villagers' attention, but unexpectedly, every time they made a move, these people noticed and knocked them unconscious.

Who exactly are these people?

How are they so formidable?

They were finished now.

After walking for a while, Lu Jing turned on the radio and contacted Captain Chen and the others.

“Report: The mission has been successfully completed. Five hostages were successfully rescued, and fifteen individuals were apprehended...”

Captain Chen was overjoyed to hear this.

The team they sent out this time consisted of half elite Team Members and half regular Team Members, plus four regular Team Members from the Womens Team.

“Are any of the Team Members injured?”

Hearing Captain Chen's question, Lu Jing replied.

“Two people have minor injuries.”

Xiao Niannian looked at the Team Members, her gaze settling on Shen Yan, who was not far away.

Normally, Shen Yan would rush to carry the stretcher, but this time he didn't, which suggested there was something wrong with Shen Yan.

She walked over and smelled the scent of blood on Shen Yan.

“Are you injured?”

Hearing Xiao Niannian's words, Shen Yan immediately nodded.

“Where are you injured?”

“My arm. It's nothing serious; it will be fine in a couple of days. My older brother just applied medicine to it.”

Hearing this, Xiao Niannian looked at Shen Yan.

She had originally been worried about the Womens Team Members, but she hadn't expected Shen Yan to be the one injured.

“How did you get injured?”

“That Chen Qi tried to jump from the second floor. When I went to subdue him, he stabbed me with a knife...”

So, was Chen Qi fighting Shen Yan just now? And did Shen Yan knock Chen Qi down the stairs?

That doesn't sound right. How could Shen Yan, with his martial arts skills, be cut by Chen Qi? Shen Yan has been training in the Special Forces Brigade for over a year.

Xiao Niannian stared at Shen Yan.

“Train hard when we get back.”

Xiao Niannian walked toward Lu Jing.

Using the moonlight and the light from the torches, Lu Jing saw that Xiao Niannian's expression was somewhat grim.

“He was injured just now while trying to save another Team Member...”

Besides the elite Team Members, there were two regular Team Members from the squad who went upstairs with Shen Yan. Shen Yan had initially dodged the attack, but to save the other Team Member, he rushed forward and fought Chen Qi.

“Don't speak favorably of him. If he's weak, he's weak, and he needs more practice.”

Saving someone is good, but the prerequisite for saving someone is ensuring one's own safety. Since he got his arm injured, he definitely needs more practice.

This showed that their training of Shen Yan was still insufficient.

Shen Yan had not yet reached the level of an elite Team Member.

“You are right.”

Lu Jing immediately agreed with Niannian's words.

Military Doctor Shen heard their conversation and kicked his younger brother.

Chen Qi was shot, yet he could still injure someone—it was utterly shameful.

Fortunately, it was only a scratch and not serious. Once they returned, he definitely needed to properly teach Shen Yan a lesson and show him the consequences.

Shen Yan sneezed several times in a row.

Meng Ning and Gao Yao were also escorting two criminals, their eyes constantly fixed on them.

These beasts actually wanted to ruin Sister-in-law Chen's purity and lay hands on her; they truly deserved to die.

Xiao Niannian kept her eyes on these people. Their weapons had all been confiscated, but they would certainly try to find a way to escape. They couldn't be given any chance to flee.

She walked over to Meng Ning. The four criminals who were caught first were now somewhat afraid upon seeing Xiao Niannian. This was because Xiao Niannian had been ruthless; now they couldn't make a sound and were in excruciating pain all over.

They didn't know what this woman had done to them.

“Captain.”

The Team Members waiting in the mountains for backup appeared.

Seeing that all the people had been apprehended, they were very happy.
