In the Underground Base beneath Fuwai Hospital.
She had once brushed past this woman.
At the time, that foreign soldier had greeted her. "Annie! Why are you handling this yourself this time?"
She had been carrying a small metal case, looking utterly superior.
Nothing like the frightened woman she was now.
Sure enough, the woman's expression changed.
She looked at Song Ning in surprise.
Suddenly, she covered her face with both hands and said in disbelief, "God! Who are you? How do you know my nickname?"
The interpreter also turned back in surprise. "Comrade Song! She says... Annie is her nickname?!"
Song Ning had understood her, too, of course.
She was surprised by the reaction of this woman named Suzanna.
Her expression was genuine.
It did not look like an act at all!
Song Ning lowered her head and thought for a moment before asking, "Are you... European?"
Among common English names, someone nicknamed Annie generally had a full name beginning with Anna or Anne.
In most European countries, however, anyone whose name contained the root Ann or Anna could be called Annie.
Sure enough, the woman answered, "Yes! I'm from De Country!"
Song Ning fell silent for a moment.
If she was from De Country, then under their nickname conventions, it made perfect sense for Suzanna, whose name contained the syllable "anna," to be called Annie.
The woman across from her was watching her with an anxious yet hopeful expression.
Clearly, she was also very eager for this interrogation to end soon.
She made no attempt to conceal her emotions from them.
Song Ning looked down at the interrogation transcript before her.
A great deal had already been recorded.
Before she arrived, Yang Qi and the others had asked quite a few questions.
She had answered almost every one.
