Hearing Yao Ran's question, Long Yu smiled and answered, "Yes. We usually take turns cleaning, but we always handle our clothes, dishes, and bedding ourselves,"
Yao Ran nodded in approval, "No wonder you are so good at tidying up my bed."
Hearing this, Shi Xuan glanced at the two of them and thought to himself, 'Is this what I can hear without paying?'
Meanwhile, Mother Han smiled at the soldiers and said, "Thank you for helping. But as guests, you don't need to do such trivial tasks. I can handle it."
Li Tianyu replied politely, "It's the least we can do."
Noticing Long Yu, Mother Han said, "Captain, you are here."
Long Yu nodded and greeted her, "Good morning, Aunty Han."
Mother Han smiled warmly, "Good morning. Breakfast is ready. You can eat first."
After Mother Han left, Long Yu turned to Li Tianyu and said, "Captain Li, please come with me."
Li Tianyu nodded and followed him to the side hall together with the others.
Once seated around the long table, Long Yu asked, "Captain Li, how do you know about this place?"
"I asked Captain Wu. I heard he met you on his last mission, so I went to ask how to find you, and he gave me the location of this place." Li Tianyu answered truthfully.
Long Yu thought for a moment before asking, "Do you have something important to tell me?"
Li Tianyu nodded. He pulled a report from his backpack and handed it to Long Yu.
As Long Yu read the report, Li Tianyu explained, "Three days ago, a team of ability users returned with severe injuries. After the doctors treated their wounds, the hospital reported the case to the Second Army. Upon investigation, we discovered that a group of monsters had attacked them."
Hearing this, Long Yu's expression darkened in displeasure.
Noticing his reaction, Li Tianyu hesitated before explaining, "I'm not sure how he found out,
but Commander Du knows Miss Yao has medicine that can cure deformation."
Long Yu's expression immediately changed when he heard this.
Noticing the change in his demeanor, Yao Ran quickly held his hand and asked, "Captain Li, could the soldiers I treated have leaked this information?"
The three soldiers, who were previously treated by Yao Ran, immediately protested.
"No! We never told anyone."
"Our comrades wouldn't betray you either."
"That's right. You saved our lives. We'd never sell you out, even if it meant death."
Observing their sincere expressions, Yao Ran recalled the group of people who had been following them earlier when they visited the soldiers.
"It seems your commander didn't trust you, Captain Li," she said after a moment of thought. Li Tianyu looked surprised and asked, "Why do you say that, Miss Yao?"
Yao Ran explained, "When we visited your comrades, a group of people followed us. Initially, A Yu and I thought they were watching us. But after we left, they stayed behind, observing the building like hawks."
"Since you say none of you leaked the news, the only explanation is that your commander sent those people to monitor you, Captain Li."
Li Tianyu clenched his fists tightly as he heard this until his knuckles turned white. Seeing his grim expression, Long Yu commented, "You know Du Zhaoyi doesn't trust anyone. It's not surprising that he'd assign people to spy on you."
Li Tianyu calmed down at these words, lowering his head in resignation. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "Miss Yao, Captain Long, I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess,"
Yao Ran smiled warmly and replied, "This isn't entirely your fault. If we had dealt with those people that day, Du Zhaoyi might not have learned about me or the cure. But in doing so, we will become enemies."
