Captured (5)

Zhou Jia only returned to the back office at midnight. Li Yu looked at the tired Zhou Jia with sleepy eyes. "Xiao Xi, did you get any information from the interrogation?"

"I didn't get anything valuable out of him. They're all tough. One of them tried to bite his tongue off as soon as he arrived at the government office. It looks like we'll have to wait for Sir to come back and concoct the medicine before we interrogate them."

Li Yu comforted him. "Don't be too anxious. The people who went up the mountain to report should be bringing people down the mountain tomorrow. I'm wondering if there's a shortcut to cross Great Green Mountain, or if these people are just here to gather information."

Zhou Jia went up and hugged Li Yu's slightly swollen leg. He gently massaged it. "When Sir comes back, I'll ask him to take a look at you. Why are your legs swollen?"
