He was not going to ask for help, but he was sent to another room. It was not good. Gao Yan thought about his choice of words, “Mr. Shen Jian, this room may be needed later, so please go to the other room first. I will bring Miss Su to see our officer later.”
“Oh, okay.” Shen Jian stood straight, indicating that he understood. Then, he obediently followed Gao Yan to the other room.
After sending Shen Jian off, Gao Yan went to look for One and asked for his opinion, “Sir, Miss Su said that there are too few clues and there’s no way to find out. She wants to go and take a look at the criminal. Of course, she said that she doesn’t need to look at the criminal’s appearance. We can cover his head and she just needs to take a look at his hands.”
One thought for a moment and said in a hoarse voice, “Okay, I’ll go too.”
“Sir, I can handle this matter. You don’t have to do it yourself.” Gao Yan thought that One didn’t trust Su Meng and wanted to monitor her personally, so he quickly promised.
“Bring her over,” One said and went out.
Gao Yan saw One’s indifferent look and thought that he must not scare Su Meng. After all, One’s imposing manner was something few comrades in the army could withstand.
However, he only dared to curse in his heart, but he did not dare to say it out loud.
Su Meng was waiting for Gao Yan’s reply at the door when she saw Shen Jian sitting facing the wall in the next room.
“Shen Jian, what are you doing here? I thought Officer Gao called you for something,” Su Meng called out to Shen Jian at the door.
When Shen Jian heard Su Meng call out to him, he put a finger in front of his mouth and made a silent gesture. Then, he whispered, “Secret mission. I’ll wait for you here. Don’t forget to pick me up when you’re done.”
Su Meng: “…”
Why did it feel like there was something wrong with this child’s brain? Why didn’t she understand what he was saying?
“Do you want to go with me?” Su Meng asked him.
“If not, I’ll go by myself.” Seeing that Shen Jian did not answer, Su Meng said another sentence, as if she was coaxing a child. Su Meng suddenly felt like she had become a mother ahead of time.
When she thought of being a mother, she thought of her poor child from her previous life. A wave of anger surged up again, and the hatred for Wei Ting in her heart deepened.
Su Meng wanted to say something, but Gao Yan quickly ran down from upstairs and said to Su Meng, “Miss Su, the person you want to see is not in this building. I’ll take you there.”
“Okay.”
Su Meng glanced at Shen Jian again. Seeing that he was still facing the wall, she sighed. She didn’t care about this fool anymore. She was going to go with Gao Yan.
After taking a few steps, Shen Jian caught up with her and gave her an excuse. “No, I have to help you.”
Gao Yan did not care. He knew that Shen Jian had been following Su Meng. Besides, if they went to see the criminal, they would not be able to see his face. Even if he went with her, it would not be a problem.
“Miss Su, are you sure you can calculate it just by seeing him?” Although he had seen Su Meng’s ability on the way here, he still had some doubts in his heart.
This was because there should be many people who knew how to read faces. Putting aside whether it was mysterious or not, it was said that a person’s appearance was born from the heart. A person’s appearance could represent many things, so it was normal to be able to see through it.
As for finding things, there was no electronic device to rely on. It was all because of the compass in her hand, and also because of her ability to read and calculate. Did a person really have that ability?
If it was true, then wouldn’t the army be able to bring in such people in the future? It would definitely be helpful on the battlefield.
“There’s no need to see the person. As long as I see his hand, it’s enough. Together with the clues you gave us earlier, it’s enough.” Su Meng nodded her head and promised.
“That’s great. I’m really sorry. I can’t reveal the details because this document is too important. We can’t afford to leak it.” Gao Yan smiled.
Then, he remembered something, he turned to Su Meng and said, “However, our commander is going to see the criminal after he finds out that you went. He’s a bit strange, so don’t feel any pressure when you see him. Don’t be afraid. As long as you don’t cross the line, he won’t care.”
“Okay, I understand. The army is strict and has zero tolerance for mistakes. I definitely won’t cross the line.” Su Meng nodded.
“Thank you for your understanding!” Gao Yan heaved a sigh of relief.
The two of them talked as they walked. Soon, they arrived at the place where the criminal was being held. As this was an important place in the military region, they had to go through several layers of checks before they could enter.
When they reached the room where the criminal was being held, Su Meng saw a man who was completely covered up. Even his eyes were not exposed. She knew it was a man because of his height and his slender and somewhat strong body.
