"I know what you mean, Chief," Jiang Yao said confidently. "First and foremost, a spy's identity requires not only psychological attributes, but also acting skills and the ability to adapt. Of course, it is also necessary to be able to defend yourself and support your partner in completing tasks and objectives. Anyone who looks at me will think that I am an unarmed and weak lady with no defenses. I have an inherent advantage that other soldiers do not have."
"Yes, continue." The bureau chief became interested when he heard that Jiang Yao understood everything; she sounded so confident. He did not interrupt Jiang Yao and let her finish.
"My marksmanship and my skills are not bad. Lu Xingzhi taught all of those personally. You should know that I learned marksmanship in the army when I visited him last time. He even praised me for it. My physical strength is comparable to that of a regular female soldier. Most significantly, I am a medical professional. I am capable of handling any emergency. Furthermore, the importance of being a spy is to adapt to the situation rather than to fight. I must be quick-witted to obtain relevant information and relay it to the organization."
Even though the chief initially believed Jiang Yao's self-recommendation was ludicrous, he changed his mind after hearing Jiang Yao's statements.
He gazed at Jiang Yao's tiny face; it was the size of his palm. He had to accept that Jiang Yao was right about one thing. Her physical appearance gave her an advantage. People would mistake her for a delicate young lady based on her appearance.
The chief had also learned that Lu Xingzhi had personally taught his wife to shoot. Sergeant Lu had also praised his wife's marksmanship.
Jiang Yao had also persuaded the bureau chief on another point. The trust and tacit understanding between her and Lu Xingzhi were incomparable. The most important thing was her medical skills. Perhaps her medical skills would be of great help in the field.
