The first time Qin Si saw this woman, he felt her eyes were familiar.
Now, seeing her true face...
Yang Mi!
Who else could it be besides Da Mi Mi?
Those fox eyes, so iconic.
But with the precedents of Chen Yue Lian (Bai Lu) and Qin Huai Ru (Hao Lei),
Qin Si didn't show any surprise.
Sitting on the bed, he picked up a pistol and casually hefted it.
“Browning, German-made.”
Qin Si raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Guan Xue was astonished. To be able to tell at a glance that her pistol was German-made, the man in front of her wasn't simple.
Her pistol was a rare commodity.
Not only was it uncommon among ordinary people, even soldiers and officers in the army didn't see many of them.
Yet, the man before her had instantly identified its origin.
“You're not just a common hunter, who are you?”
Guan Xue asked with a frown.
Instead of answering her, Qin Si said to himself:
“Palace-grade Jade Liquid Wine.”
“Postnatal Care for Sows.”
“Look, he even has to say thanks.”
“No shortage of money.”
“This can be had.”
“……”
Qin Si continuously spouted out classic lines from the Spring Festival Gala, testing if Guan Xue was a time traveler.
He also tested Qin Huai Ru.
It was obvious that neither of them got it, neither was from the future.
Qin Huai Ru was a bit better, her face full of confusion, wanting to ask but hesitant.
Guan Xue's situation was more serious.
It was unknown what she was imagining, but she was sweating profusely and looking anxious.
Qin Si clicked his tongue twice, secretly regretting the lack of companions.
While fiddling with the gun in his hand, he disengaged the safety.
“Wait!”
Guan Xue's voice rose an octave, she hurriedly said:
“Are you a man of Chen or Dai? It doesn't matter, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, we can cooperate!”
Chen? Dai?
Qin Si was taken aback for a moment before realizing that this woman thought he was a member of the Central Unification or Military Unification.
Since she could guess this, it meant she was definitely a spy.
But not from the Central Unification or Military Unification, meaning she wasn't a person of Chiang Kai-shek.
Plus, her accent, carrying a bit of Northeast dialect.
Qin Si had a guess, this woman was most likely a spy of the Manchukuo puppet regime.
Then how did she end up here?
From Northeast to the capital, it's not a short distance, to say the least.
And she became the bandit leader.
“You're overthinking.”
Qin Si shook his head and looked at Qin Huai Ru beside him:
“Huai Ru, is dinner ready?”
“Ah? Oh, it's ready, I'll go reheat it.”
Qin Huai Ru saw that Qin Si was trying to send her away, she didn't think much of it and went to the side.
After Qin Huai Ru left, Guan Xue hurriedly asked:
“You're not going to kill me?”
“When did I say I was going to kill you? You don't have many days left anyway, why would I bother?”
Qin Si chuckled:
“Turns out the leader of White Tiger Mountain is actually a Manchukuo spy.”
As he spoke, Qin Si casually put the gun aside.
Seeing that he didn't even put the safety back on, Guan Xue finally realized, angrily saying:
“You tricked me, you don't know how to use a gun!”
“I never said I did.”
Qin Si shrugged, he was skilled with hunting rifles, but he didn't know anything about real guns.
The reason he recognized Guan Xue's pistol as a Browning was because of the TV series he watched in his past life, *Bright Sword*.
Chu Yun Fei had two Brownings, he gave one to Li Yun Long, and Li Yun Long gave it to his wife Xiu Qin.
Xiu Qin used that gun to kill the Japanese.
When he saw Xiu Qin being cornered by the Japanese, he was incredibly worried.
Who knew that Xiu Qin would pull out her pistol and take out the Japanese.
So Qin Si had a deep impression of it.
When he saw Guan Xue's pistol, he thought it looked similar and pretended to know a lot about it to bluff her.
Who knew she would overthink so much, she even imagined him as a spy.
“You, shameless!”
Guan Xue was furious, from the time this man entered the cave, she had been completely under his control.
She thought he was a spy for Chiang Kai-shek.
Seeing him disengage the safety, she thought he was going to kill her, and she was terrified.
It turned out, it was all a trick.
Qin Si didn't care about her insults, looking at her he lightly laughed:
“I'll give you a way out, do you want it?”
“Give me a way out? Ha.”
Guan Xue put on a proud demeanor:
“What do you think you are? I am the leader of White Tiger Mountain…”
“Alright, alright, I'm tired of hearing you talk about this.”
Qin Si waved his hand, looking disgusted:
“The government's bandit suppression operation, even the old geezer who's our village head knows, I don't believe you have no informants down the mountain, you wouldn't know about this situation.
You're about to die, and you're still putting up a front.”
“……”
Guan Xue fell silent, once again being proven right.
This feeling was really unpleasant.
She didn't even know who he was, yet she was repeatedly controlled by him.
Damn!
“My surname is Guan.” Guan Xue spoke coldly.
“So?”
“Guan is one of the eight major surnames of the Manchu, the Guarjia clan, Manchu nobility, you, a country bumpkin…”
“Alright, alright, the Qing Dynasty is over, what Manchu nobility are you talking about?”
Qin Si looked speechless:
“The century of humiliation in China, it's because of you goddamn Manchu nobles, and you still have the face to be proud, you have no shame.”
“You!”
“You what?”
Qin Si's eyes turned cold:
“Manchukuo was the dog of the Japanese, you're the dog of Manchukuo, you're a dog among dogs.
The Japanese committed heinous crimes on this land, you didn't know?
Unit 731 was in Manchukuo, you couldn't see that?
The Japanese brutally murdered our fellow countrymen, experimented on our people, you just watched, and you still have the nerve to talk about nobility to me?
In China! Who hasn't had a prosperous past, whose ancestors weren't nobles?
You're still talking about Manchu nobility, I spit!
Go to hell with your nobility!”
Qin Si put the gun away and directly got up to eat.
This woman was clueless, she's already messed up to this point, and she's still arrogant and looks down on people.
The thought of saving her life instantly extinguished.
Manchu nobility.
The dynasty he despised the most was the Qing Dynasty.
Why were there so many Qing Palace dramas later on, it's because these shameless Manchu nobles were whitewashing themselves.
Trying to distort people's understanding.
A century of humiliation, can that be overturned?
Guan Xue was stunned by the scolding, staring at Qin Si's back in a daze.
Thousands of thoughts swirled in her mind, ultimately forming a murmured whisper:
“I, what should I do?”
