Chapter 1110

"Seeking death!"

The black-clad leader guard shouted and drew the sword at his waist.

"Dead or alive, I want her alive!"

After an angry shout, the guard leader swung his sword and stepped forward.

Hongchan threw the bamboo basket in her hand, then turned and ran toward the back, her movements extremely fast, clean, and neat.

And that maid who didn't know what had happened was still in a state of shock.

It wasn't until she was startled back to her senses by the painful groans of the guard lying on the ground beside her that she let out a scream.

And Hongchan's figure had already rushed quickly toward the small gate of the back courtyard.

There were two guards each inside and outside the small gate of the back courtyard.

The guards who had just seen Hongchan enter, but then saw her running rapidly toward this side, didn't know what had happened.

But soon, the black-clad leader chasing behind Hongchan shouted loudly:

"Stop her, she is a dead spy!"

Dead spy!

The two guards were also stunned upon hearing this.

They had seen Hongchan more than once.

They had frequent contact before.

Every time Hongchan went out and returned, she often brought them some food or the like.

Plus, Hongchan was pretty and was a maid favored by Yuan Shu, so they naturally had a deep impression of her.

She was actually a dead spy!

The two guards who reacted immediately raised the long spears in their hands and aimed them at Hongchan.

At this moment, Hongchan's gaze was firm; where was the usual gentleness and loveliness?

Just as the two guards raised the long spears in their hands and aimed them at Hongchan, Hongchan also took the opportunity to raise her sleeves.

Whoosh!

Another sound.

The sleeve arrow hidden in the sleeve shot out.

An iron nail the length of an index finger shot out through the sleeve.

A guard who was caught off guard was nailed directly in the center of his eyebrows and fell to the ground with a scream.

And the other guard was startled.

When Hongchan raised her other sleeve, the guard immediately hugged his head, dodged to the side, and squatted on the ground.

But this time no sleeve arrow was fired.

Hongchan, who lowered her arm, rushed rapidly toward the back gate, kicked away the bolt inserted in the door, and then took the opportunity to roll out through the opened back gate.

And outside the back gate, the two soldiers holding long spears hadn't reacted yet before Hongchan rolled past them.

"Trash!"

The black-clad guard leader cursed loudly.

The guard who was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands inside the gate realized he had been tricked.

"Chase her for me!"

The black-clad guard leader cursed angrily: "If she runs away today, none of you will live!"

The guards were startled and then hurriedly got up and followed in pursuit.

The guards outside the gate also followed in pursuit.

And more than a dozen guards holding weapons also rushed out from the back courtyard of the residence and chased in the direction Hongchan fled.

The crowd originally walking on the long street was instantly frightened by the scene before them and dodged to both sides of the road.

"Get out of the way, all get out of the way!"

"Move aside!"

The guards shouted loudly.

Hongchan, holding up her skirt with one hand, fled rapidly, frowned, looked back, and then pursed her lips tightly.

And just a short distance from the back courtyard of Yuan Shu's residence, a young man who looked not very old and was begging on the side of the road stood up hurriedly after seeing this scene, picked up the broken pottery bowl placed in front of him, and turned into an alley.

Buguangli, in front of Duan Liuqing's residence.

The young beggar who had just been at the back courtyard of Yuan Shu's residence looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, then knocked on the courtyard gate.

The sound was three long and two short.

Soon, Duan Liuqing, dressed as an ordinary young girl, pushed open the courtyard gate.

Seeing it was the young man, Duan Liuqing moved aside and let the young man walk into the courtyard.

"Hongchan has been exposed and is currently being hunted."

After entering the courtyard, the young man said to Duan Liuqing.

"What!"

Duan Liuqing was shocked.

Hongchan had been lurking in Yuan Shu's residence for a long time and often sent back some extremely useful intelligence.

How could she have suddenly been exposed?

Duan Liuqing frowned.

"Immediately organize manpower to rescue her; absolutely do not let Hongchan fall into their hands..."

Speaking of this, a look of determination appeared on Duan Liuqing's face: "If you can't rescue her, you... you also cannot let her live."

Hongchan knew too much.

Once Hongchan was caught and revealed something, it would be a disaster for the Military Intelligence Office.

Because Hongchan's status was high, she knew the locations of most of the Military Intelligence Office's intelligence transmissions in Luoyang City.

At this moment, Liu Bai Tu's words seemed to echo in Duan Liuqing's ears again.

As an intelligence officer.

At any time, one must prioritize confidentiality.

One must be ruthless to oneself and ruthless to the enemy; when necessary, one must not have feelings for anyone.

"Go and act."

Duan Liuqing waved her sleeve, then turned and disappeared into the room, also changing into a set of black clothes and masking her face.
