The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus
Chapter 88

Qiao Ying was straightforward.

Shangguan Qingmu suppressed his smile and stared at Qiao Ying, saying, "Qiao Ying, a resident of Yun City, born in the year XX at Yun City Jiangxia District People's Hospital, a family of five..."

As the details of her identity were gradually revealed, Qiao Ying frowned in displeasure.

Her gaze turned cold. "Investigating me?"

Shangguan Qingmu replied, "A regular teenage schoolgirl who outran Instructor Hou, who comes from a special forces background, broke the 150-meter obstacle race record at our military district, and achieved a score today that even professional snipers couldn't achieve. We can't help but have doubts."

"What are you suspecting?" Qiao Ying asked. "That I'm a spy for some country?"

Shangguan Qingmu retorted, "You dare to say it."

Qiao Ying challenged, "So, did you replace anything?"

"We will conduct further investigation. The military training ends tomorrow. Until we clarify your identity and confirm there are no issues, you will need to stay here and cooperate with us. Once everything is cleared, we will personally escort you back to school," Shangguan Qingmu explained.

Foreign infiltration has become a serious problem, and this time it may have reached Capital University, or even their military.

They had no choice but to investigate, to take it seriously.

"How should I cooperate?" Qiao Ying asked. "Are you going to lock me up?"

Shangguan Qingmu replied, "If you don't mind, you can stay in my office for two days. I will personally take care of you during that time."

"What if I do mind and refuse to cooperate?" Qiao Ying challenged.

"That's not up to you," Shangguan Qingmu replied.

The two of them confronted each other, sensing the chilling aura emanating from the other. Shangguan Qingmu was amazed that a young girl possessed such formidable presence, and he started to take Qiao Ying more seriously.

Well, they were just doing their job, serving the country and the people with dedication and sincerity. It was commendable.

Blame it on her own high-profile actions.

Qiao Ying composed herself and reminded herself that she was just an ordinary student now. She couldn't act recklessly and simply walk away under their watchful eyes, as she had done in the past.

"You managed to replace only this basic information in two hours? Your investigative skills are lacking," Qiao Ying commented, not bothering to look at Instructor Hou's expression. She then asked, "Can I make a phone call?"

Shangguan Qingmu exchanged a glance with Instructor Hou.

"Yes, you can make the call here," Shangguan Qingmu said.

"Of course," Qiao Ying replied.

She took out her phone from her pocket.

Shangguan Qingmu appeared patient as he waited, but he walked over to the communication soldier and whispered, "Immediately intercept the signal and monitor her conversation. Find out who she's talking to."

Qiao Ying dialed a number on her phone and moved her ear slightly, contemplating whether to say to them, "Should I slow down my call? Wait for you?"

Or perhaps she should directly bring the person over and let them investigate face to face?

After finishing the call, the communication soldier returned and whispered to Shangguan Qingmu, "We couldn't intercept any signals."

Shangguan Qingmu furrowed his brow, his expression growing even more serious.

Qiao Ying thought to herself, "If you can intercept, then I'm useless."

Shangguan Qingmu looked at Qiao Ying, about to say something, when the phone on his desk rang.

He went over and answered it.

Instructor Hou was close to Qiao Ying, and just a moment ago, he attempted to eavesdrop on her conversation but couldn't hear anything.

Her phone must have been modified because, with his sharp hearing at such a close distance, it was impossible for him not to hear anything.

Shangguan Qingmu held the phone and said, "Oh, why do you have time to call me? Ah? What did you say? You're from the Qin family?"

Shangguan Qingmu was slightly stunned and looked up at Qiao Ying, who was standing there.

Then he switched hands with the phone and said, "Let me confirm with you, this female student named Qiao Ying from Yun City, is she from your Qin family?"

On the other end of the phone, a man with a deep and magnetic voice replied, "Yes, she is from my Qin family."

Qin family? Which Qin family? Could it be... Instructor Hou glanced at Qiao Ying, then looked at Shangguan Qingmu's expression.

When Qiao Ying made the phone call in front of them earlier, she told the other person that she was suspected of being a spy from a certain country due to her outstanding performance and asked them to intervene and explain.

At that time, Instructor Hou thought to himself: Indeed, she is still too naive. This is a serious matter, and it can't be brushed off with just a few connections.

Even the so-called "Mr. Qin" mentioned by her might be investigated by them, and it could end up causing a lot of trouble.

And now...

Upon hearing Qiao Ying asking for help through the phone call, Shangguan Qingmu's thoughts were exactly the same as Instructor Hou's.

And now... he put down the phone and laughed, "It's a misunderstanding, she's our own people."

Instructor Hou observed the situation and thought to himself: It seems that it really is that Qin family.

Qiao Ying asked, "Can I go now?"

"Um..." Shangguan Qingmu actually wanted to say something.

For example, apologize to Qiao Ying, comfort her, praise her excellent marksmanship, but it seemed that Qiao Ying didn't need any of that.

He could only smile and nod, "Yes, you can go back to military training. Everything is fine now."

After Qiao Ying left,

Instructor Hou confirmed, "She is from the Qin family?"

Shangguan Qingmu nodded, "I knew it. That kid from the Qin family suddenly sent us so many good equipment."

"And even sent sunscreen and mosquito repellent to the female students. It turns out that sending equipment was just a cover-up, and sending sunscreen to the little girl is the real intention."

Shangguan Qingmu only now realized that when Qiao Ying said it took them two hours to replace out such little information, she meant that they didn't replace out about her relationship with Qin Hanyue.

Shangguan Qingmu then pointed at the window, "He was using a telescope to look over there. I thought there was a younger generation of the Qin family in military training, so I specifically asked around, wanting to show him some care. I even investigated a bunch of people in Beijing with the surname Qin, but it turns out the person is surnamed Qiao."

"I never would have thought that our entire military district would be basking in the radiance of a little girl."

"I didn't realize that the dignified Qin family's Third Young Master, known for his self-discipline, would turn out to be an irresponsible ruler in ancient times. Sending so many things just to have a reason to come and deliver sunscreen and then using a telescope to take a closer look at people."

"This extravagant kid truly lives up to his reputation."

If she is related to Qin Hanyue, then it's not surprising even if Qiao Ying has six arms and three heads. After all, Qin family members are not ordinary.

After having lunch, Qiao Ying returned to her dormitory to rest.

As soon as she entered, she heard several girls discussing her shooting score. When they saw her come in, they all fell silent.

Just as she was about to rest,

Instructor Hou appeared at the door and knocked.

"Qiao Ying, come with me."

Qiao Ying's face showed a hint of impatience, but she still stood up and followed Instructor Hou, asking as they walked, "What's the matter this time?"

Instructor Hou replied, "You'll know when we get there."

Finishing his sentence, Instructor Hou discreetly sized up Qiao Ying.

The female students in the dormitory started discussing in whispers, "Why are they looking for her again?"

"Could it be because she's physically fit and caught the attention of a high-ranking officer who wants to recruit her into the military?"

"Tsk, all she can do is run a few laps. Do you think high-ranking officers have nothing better to do? They wouldn't bother with such trivial matters."

Qiao Ying followed Instructor Hou and arrived once again at Shangguan Qingmu's office.

Two people were sitting on the sofa.

Shangguan Qingmu was facing the door, while the man had his back turned, dressed in a suit with legs crossed, engaged in conversation with Shangguan Qingmu.

"Ah, you're here," Shangguan Qingmu said when he saw Qiao Ying.

Qiao Ying walked over, looked at Qin Hanyue sitting on the sofa, and said, "Didn't we already clarify things over the phone? Why did you make a special trip?"

Qiao Ying's words and tone surprised Shangguan Qingmu, who widened his eyes in astonishment.

It was definitely the first time Shangguan Qingmu had heard someone speak to Qin Hanyue in such a manner, not even addressing him by name.

In both the lawful and unlawful circles, anyone who encountered Qin Hanyue would respectfully and politely address him as "Third Master Qin."

Not to mention using such a tone to speak to him.

Qin Hanyue turned his head and looked at her. "It's not far. I thought making this trip would put your mind at ease."

Just like that? Why couldn't she believe it?

Qin Hanyue patted the seat next to him, wearing a slight smile. "Have a seat."

Qiao Ying walked over and sat down, crossing her legs comfortably.

Shangguan Qingmu observed the identical sitting posture and even the direction their legs were crossed, and his gossiping heart began to flutter.

Qin Hanyue put down his legs, picked up a water bottle and a cup, carefully rinsed the cup with water, then poured water into it and handed it to Qiao Ying.

Qiao Ying accepted it and took a few sips.

Shangguan Qingmu thought to himself, "I've never seen a scene like this before."

Qin Hanyue asked, "How have these past few days been?"

Qiao Ying replied, "Not as enjoyable as being in M Continent."

As she spoke, she reached out to place the cup back on the table.

Unfortunately, the table was a bit far and she couldn't reach it.

Just as Qiao Ying was about to put her leg down and lean over to place the cup, Qin Hanyue reached out and took the cup from her, putting it back on the table.

Shangguan Qingmu couldn't help but gasp. "I've never seen a scene like this before either."
