This situation is different from usual, and we need to wait for multiple parties to come and assess it. The scene has been protected. Lu Weiquan glanced at the time on his hand. It was late at night, and most people were resting, which was the easiest time for the enemy to succeed.

Qi Zecheng and Ye Zhanying, who were on night duty nearby, exchanged a glance upon hearing the sound and nodded almost instinctively at the same time: "There's something going on at the military factory, let's go check it out."

When they arrived, the police had already arrived, and the area was cordoned off in advance. The square, which should have been dimly lit, was brightly lit.

"The victim suffered severe head injuries, and based on the extent of the injuries, it appears the perpetrator attacked from behind."

Lu Weiquan felt a pang of heartache. He sighed and squatted down: "I should have been more careful. I could have sensed that something was different today. If I had reacted more quickly, I might have been able to prevent this tragedy."

Lu Weiquan could never get over this hurdle in his heart.

Public Security Officer Wang Xian patted his arm: "This is a situation that no one wants to see. The enemy is simply trying to separate us. At this time, you must be even more vigilant and resolutely prevent the enemy from succeeding."

What's done is done, and blaming yourself is useless. Instead of wallowing in grief, it's better to think about how to overcome the difficulties ahead.

It took a lot of effort for Liu Meng and Cao Deyu, two junior police officers, to retrieve the documents intact from Chen Guilin's hands.

"Captain Wang, this is something the deceased was always protecting. Also, his right hand was tightly clutching a piece of origami."

Liu Meng brought the things over, and Lu Weiquan and Wang Xian exchanged glances.

"We can't understand the words on this at all. What does it mean?"

Ye Zhanying and Qi Zecheng took the item and glanced at it, but they were equally confused.

"It's supposed to be a foreign language, but it doesn't look quite the same. It's just similar in spirit. Do you have a translation expert? I'll have someone come over right now."

Qi Zecheng stared at the long string of text and fell into deep thought.

Sure enough, you only realize how little you know when you need it most. If only I had known, I would have studied harder no matter what.

Ye Zhanying was even more annoyed: "It's written like a bird's. Can't something this important be written more simply?"

Qi Zecheng glanced at her dismissively, his words laced with sarcasm: "You said it yourself, this is important, and it's written so concisely that anyone can understand it. Doesn't that just let those with ulterior motives get away with it?"

Ye Zhanying lightly slapped his own mouth with one hand: "It's my fault, it's my fault. I'm simple-minded and all brawn and no brains. I didn't even think of this."

The language was completely incomprehensible, making it impossible to piece together complete information. Wang Xian instructed his men to carefully preserve the evidence.

"Let's go back and ask the organization for help in sending comrades who understand foreign languages ​​to solve the case. This is no small matter, and I can't make a decision on my own."

Liu Hui squeezed through the crowd: "How long will it take for the other colleagues to arrive? The situation is urgent, and the research is at a critical juncture. Don't we need someone who understands foreign languages? We have one right here."

After he finished speaking, he waved to Jiang Yunzhou, who had just come to his senses: "Comrade Jiang, you're good at these things, why don't you come over and help take a look?"

All eyes turned to Jiang Yunzhou, who was yawning at the time.

Suddenly burdened with hope, Jiang Yunzhou felt immense pressure, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

Wang Xian pieced the origami back together, and although the document was crumpled, the contents were revealed.

Jiang Yunzhou frowned, and after translating only a few words, he ran into trouble.

Liu Hui asked expectantly, "Comrade Jiang, how's it going? Any progress?"

Jiang Yunzhou shook his head and picked up the origami again. The thin piece of paper, when shone through the light, seemed to express only the meaning on the paper.

"This is not a traditional general foreign language; it's more like a dialect of our country. Key words are encrypted. This language system is too vast, and I'm afraid I can't translate it completely."

The group, who had just seen hope, were once again plunged into a predicament. Jiang Yunzhou tried to understand the meaning in the few words, but he could not grasp the key points. The writing style was similar, but it was not a common language. Liu Hui was at his wit's end.

"It's so pitiful that Engineer Chen died so young, before he even had a family. He's probably working overtime here so late at night and hasn't gone home yet. This is such an innocent tragedy!"

Chen Guilin just handed out wedding candy to everyone last week, saying that he would be getting engaged soon, and his colleagues all congratulated him happily.

But unexpectedly, in just a few days, a living person lay lifeless here.

Ye Zhanying felt a pang of pity. Her eyes reddened, and she turned her head away, her hands clenched tightly.

Even on a battlefield where no guns or ammunition are seen, the air is still thick with the smoke of battle, and it's unclear when true peace will arrive.

Lu Weiquan collected all the relevant documents: "Since no one has a solution, we can only wait for the organization to send more professional people to decipher them. Tonight's events have frightened everyone, but our security department will handle the follow-up matters. It's getting late, everyone should go to sleep early."

Liu Hui was extremely anxious but helpless. Although Orlov and Novich were both there, even if they could understand it, they couldn't translate it into Chinese. At this moment, the language barrier had become an insurmountable mountain.

Qi Zecheng observed the crime scene. The perpetrators were very cautious and left nothing behind. The only document that could be used to extract evidence also needed to be sealed up first.

He scratched the back of his head with one hand: "Let's go back first, anyway, these things can't be deciphered in a short time."

Jiang Yunzhou turned his head, his expression serious: "At present, it should be difficult to find people in China who can translate such minor languages. We should have to look up specialized materials. However, the foreign language materials in the national treasury are limited, so we probably won't find anything. But I once had a very smart friend who had an extremely strong talent for languages ​​and a photographic memory."

He paused, then realized that it seemed only that person could break the deadlock.

"When she was studying medicine abroad, she traveled to many places with her mentor and was able to understand some dialects very easily. She was the first person I met who had no language barriers at all and could easily communicate with anyone."

Liu Hui's eyes lit up. Was this a gift of a pillow for someone who was sleepy?

"So, where is that doctor now? We desperately need this kind of specialized talent. Is it too late to call him over?"
