He handed the items to Yunyi, then looked at the Branch Secretary and the Battalion Commander. "I have a few words I’d like to say to Chu Yunyi alone."
The Branch Secretary glanced at Yunyi, saw her nod at him, and said, "Alright, we’ll be in the courtyard."
With that, he led the other people in the house outside.
Yunyi looked at the soldier. "If you have something to say, please speak freely."
The soldier cleared his throat. "Comrade Chu, not all of those backing the enemy spies have been apprehended yet. To ensure your safety, we cannot publicly hold a commendation ceremony for you this time. Please understand."
Yunyi naturally didn’t care about such things; being low-key and receiving practical benefits was good enough for her. "That’s no problem," she said. "This is quite all right."
She hadn’t intended to ask, but curiosity got the better of her. "May I ask, were the experts successful in opening that door last time?"
Considering something, she added, "If you can’t tell me, then just pretend I never asked."
Kang Zilin thought for a moment. "Although the process of opening it was quite convoluted, it was eventually opened. The items inside have been secretly escorted to their designated location."
Hearing the news she wanted, Yunyi didn’t dwell on what might have been stored inside that door. After all, further questions would verge on classified information.
She didn’t want curiosity to kill the cat; it was better to live her own quiet life peacefully.
They chatted a little more, and as they were concluding, Yunyi asked, "Are your Battalion Commander and his men still in the disaster area?"
Kang Zilin paused, surprised. He had been continuously on escort missions and didn’t know Yunyi had been to the disaster area. "How did you know our Battalion Commander went for disaster relief?"
Yunyi’s expression turned grave. "I just returned from the disaster area. I encountered him there."

After seeing the jeep depart, quite a few people quickly gathered. "Chu Zhiqing, you must have received a lot of rewards, right? Let everyone see!"
The Battalion Commander, following behind the Branch Secretary, glanced at the manila paper bag in Yunyi’s hand. He was actually quite curious about what was inside it.
