Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 454, Part 1: Capture them alive!

Lu Yuan, on the train, sneezed twice.

Lu Yifeng nudged his arm: "Your sister-in-law misses you?"

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Maybe!"

The big yellow dog beside him barked and rolled its eyes at Lu Yuan several times: "You dog, you have good food, but you won't give me any!"

Lu Yuan rubbed its head: "Good boy, in a few hours you'll see Manman!"

Big Yellow paused for two seconds, then excitedly circled around the carriage: "Oh, oh, oh, I'm going to see my owner! Time to eat jerky!"

Hiding in the shadows, Qiao Manman sneezed twice, wondering what Lu Yuan was up to, that he actually missed her so much.

Feeling a sweet warmth in my heart, I wiped my nose clean with a tissue.

As the sky grew darker, he frequently glanced at Ji Ming and Xia Zhao.

Unfortunately, the two of them were already scared of Qiao Manman and refused to go back to the car to rest.

Qiao Manman couldn't very well knock them unconscious and then take their space, so after trying to persuade them several times to no avail, she let them go.

It's pretty cool to have a Jeep all to myself.

He lay back in the car seat, his consciousness sinking into the space, chatting with the system while tending to the flowers and plants around the villa.

***

Time passed slowly, and Meng Peiyu's car drew closer and closer to Meng Hongsheng's hiding place.

Meng Hongsheng and Liang Fanqi had been detained for several days and were both annoyed and irritable. They stayed up late at night, cursing Ren Shaohui in their hearts.

Meng Linyu remained calm. She thought to herself that since things had come to this point, if her sister couldn't escape, she would go with her.

Anyway, with my broken body, there's no reason for me to stay in this world.

Outside, Qiu Junfeng's face was covered in itchy bites from mosquitoes in the woods.

"Captain, it's been several days already. Could that guy surnamed Meng have just run away?"

"Given her style of doing things, the possibility is almost zero."

Ren Shaohui glanced at him: "If she were really that heartless, she probably wouldn't have made a special trip to the Northwest to take her parents away."

If she hadn't set fire to the Northwest, her identity as a spy chief probably wouldn't have been discovered.

"After enduring this for so many days, I'm starting to stink. If I stay any longer, I'll be begging on the streets!"

"Stop babbling and just stay put. If the mission fails, I'll beat you up!"

Qiu Junfeng sighed, gazing at the candlelight in the room: "When will this damn life end?"

Although the others remained silent, their thoughts were largely the same as his.

They stay cooped up in the woods all day, and insects are making nests in their nostrils.

Before you knew it, dawn was breaking.

The bright red sun rose from the east, and the sound of cars could be heard in the distance.

Qiu Junfeng's droopy eyelids lifted instantly, and he said excitedly, "Comrade Ji is here?"

Ren Shaohui smacked him hard on the head: "Hide it well!"

Qiu Junfeng broke out in a cold sweat and crawled on the ground, leaving only his eyes outside.

As the car drew closer, they realized it had a license plate from out of town.

Clearly, they're not one of us. But that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

After all, everyone has a wealthy relative. I heard that the production team leader has a nephew who is serving in the army in another city.

A group of people held their breath, became more alert, and stared intently at the thatched hut.

A moment later, the jeep stopped outside the thatched hut.

Meng Peiyu sat in the car, glanced around, and a cryptic smile appeared on her lips.

Ren Shaohui's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "They've been hiding this well enough. But judging from her expression, it's like she knows everything."

Ren Shaohui was torn between his thoughts and decided to observe the situation further.

After staying up all night, Meng Hongsheng and Liang Fanqi woke up from their sleep when they heard the sound of the engine. They were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.

"Peiyu is here! Peiyu is here!"

Whatever the outcome, there has to be an answer. With the last shoe dropping, my heart surprisingly calmed down.

However, Meng Hongsheng was still the same Meng Hongsheng, stopping Liang Fanqi: "Don't go out, let them make a fuss first, we'll see the result and then choose our side."

Liang Fanqi listened to everything Meng Hongsheng said and lay on the ground pretending to be asleep.

Meng Linyu hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly shouted: "Sister, sister, run! There's an ambush! The police are coming to arrest you!"

"Damn it, we've been exposed! Move out!"

Ren Shaohui shouted, and a group of police officers in camouflage uniforms jumped out of the woods: "Meng Peiyu, hands up, you're surrounded!"

"Sister, what do we do now?" Meng Guohao's face was pale. "There are so many of them, how can we escape? Mom and Dad are still being held captive by them!"

Meng Guohao slammed his fist on the car door: "We hid it so well, how could we still be discovered! I should have had them come with us to Kyoto!"

Xiao Jinbao panicked: "Are we...are we going to get caught?"

Meng Peiyu smiled slightly and prepared to get out of the car.

"Miss!" Sang Sheng grabbed her arm and shook his head: "Don't go!"

Meng Peiyu, however, persisted, saying, "Miss, there's no need for us to confront each other head-on."

If they want to arrest you, they won't do anything to Comrade Meng or Comrade Liang.

Let's run first, then come back and rescue them once we've regrouped!

Meng Peiyu replied, "No need, I can handle them!"

"Miss, don't be impulsive! We have a car, it's easy to escape."

"Sang Sheng, if we escape today, we'll face far more than just these few opponents tomorrow! Then..."

Sang Sheng stared into her eyes for a few seconds: "Okay, I'll go with you!"

With that, the two got out of the car.

Ren Shaohui gestured for the two to raise their hands, and Meng Peiyu and Sang Sheng did so.

"Meng Peiyu, come with us to the police station!"

"What are you going back for? Are you looking for death? Besides, what right do you have to come looking for me!"

You know what you've done!

"What did I do? I just felt sorry for my parents and stole them out?"

"This isn't a big deal, is it? At worst, you can just arrest them and take them back. What are you doing staking out here?"

"Your sister has already confessed that you are not only a murderer and arsonist, but also the head of China's biggest secret service."

Your parents worked for government agencies for many years, and your ex-husband was even a regimental commander in the military. How can you do this to them?

Come back to the station with me and give a proper explanation so we can try to get a reduced sentence.

Meng Peiyu was shocked that Meng Linyu would betray her, and felt a pang of heartache.

He then scoffed, "Even if I confess everything, even if I help you capture all the spies, will you let me go and set me free?"

"People must be responsible for their own actions. How could you not be punished after doing so many wrong things!"

"So, stop talking nonsense and come and arrest me if you dare!"

Seeing that she was stubborn and unyielding, Ren Shaohui waved his hand and said, "Go! Capture her alive!"

Meng Peiyu remained calm, while Sang Sheng fought a group of police officers with his bare hands and held his own.

Of course, her little tricks played a part in this.

Meng Peiyu leaned back on the hood of the car, her fingers flying across the keyboard.

A wisp of light black energy flew from her fingertips, striking the police officers' pressure points, slowing their movements and weakening their strength.

One by one, they went from being skilled fighters to mere show-offs, getting utterly thrashed.
