CHAPTER 195: CHAPTER 117: ADMINISTERING MEDICATION
Thank you Monkey Chicken Dog Pig friends for the pink favors, I’ve been pondering about your name, is it the zodiac signs of your parents and two children combined? From the first article until today, thank you for walking alongside me all this way.

After the interrogation room door opened again, only the interrogation light was on in the room, casting a dim glow. Xia You was still seated, as Cai Yang had also observed from outside the interrogation room. Apart from standing up to turn off the light once, Xia You spent most of the time sitting quietly by the table, her eyelids lowered, making it hard to discern her feelings.
Cai Yang entered with three policemen, one of whom was holding something like a medical emergency kit.
Xia You’s eyes were alert, her hands gripped the chair handles tightly, and her toes were slightly raised. It doesn’t take two to three hours to verify whether a military ID is forged.
Although the networks of the police and the military are not interconnected, their logistics departments can cooperate and share data. Cai Yang’s attitude towards her was not much different than before. However, the policemen behind him were somewhat evasive, not even daring to make eye contact, especially the one with the medical box who started trembling after entering the door.
"Unfortunately, Miss Xia, we have checked your documents and they are forged. You now have an additional charge of impersonating a military officer. For a persistent offender like you, we have no choice but to use unconventional methods of interrogation," Cai Yang said lazily, yet his eyes were densely shadowed, and with a wave of his hand, the two hungry wolves behind him couldn’t wait to rush forward.
Xia You had already prepared to strike. She exerted force on her legs, swept out with her leg, and the interrogation table in front of her flew out, blocking Cai Yang. Her right hand formed a knife-edge, chopping at the policeman closest to her who exclaimed in pain as the intense discomfort in his shoulder and neck made him drop to his knees, weak and powerless.
On the other side, Xia You didn’t continue her attack. Instead, she quickly retreated, exerted force, and ripped down the interrogation light, causing sparks to fly from the electrical wire, and the interrogation room immediately darkened. Among the four, Cai Yang undoubtedly had the quickest reflexes. Xia You knew it would be hard to escape today, but she wouldn’t be easily subdued.
In the pitch-dark room, the groaning of the policeman on the floor masked the breathing sounds of the other people in the room. Everyone in the ten-square-meter interrogation room breathed cautiously.
This woman had effectively walked into the trap herself. Therefore, the policemen weren’t very guarded, especially since her military ID stated she was from the National Security Department. As far as the outside world knew, the National Security Department was primarily responsible for paperwork and records. A female military officer from that department would at best know some fancy but ineffective self-defense moves.
However, Xia You’s sequence of actions just now was smooth and swift, she turned off the wall lamp prematurely, and reacted with precise counterattacks. Her actions warned the policemen that she was a leopardess who had been gathering strength for a long time, and even if trapped in a cage, the beast tamers who came to tame her wouldn’t gain much.
The light was turned on. The groaning got louder. The previously injured policeman was already subdued by Xia You in the darkness, and the interrogation lamp had been smashed. The segment of the electric cable that she had ripped off was now coiled around the subdued policeman’s neck, her hands continuously tightening. The thick neck of the man was in her hands, fragile as a reed, ready to snap at any moment.
How she precisely grabbed a person in darkness, trained policemen seemed so helpless in her hands. Xia You’s attacks were simple, and she didn’t have as many crafty plans as Cai Yang imagined. When everyone entered the room, based on their footsteps, she chose the policeman who seemed the weakest, struck him down with one blow, pinpointed his collapsed position, and immediately broke the electric cable.
In the dark, most people are inconvenient in action. But for Xia You, having endured seventy-two hours akin to death and multiple reconnaissance drills, her accuracy had significantly improved. These policemen, who in her eyes only bullied the weak and vulnerable, couldn’t be considered much of a challenge.
However, Xia You overlooked something, not in terms of numbers or tactics, but that everyone has a weakness. Inside this closed room, she was still the most vulnerable. Because Cai Yang had already discovered her weak point.
Seeing his subordinate subdued, Cai Yang was not worried, but instead, he laughed. His laughter echoed in the cramped space, suffocating. Sweat broke out on Xia You’s forehead, her intense physical and mental exertions made her breathing somewhat difficult.
