The crimes Hong Kangquan committed were not negotiable, but his last wish was to see Huo Shaoheng. After consideration, the military court agreed.
His sentence, originally a death sentence, was to be carried out immediately.
Hong Kangquan had no intention of appealing, so Huo Shaoheng went to the execution ground to meet him in the afternoon.
Hong Kangquan, wearing prison clothes, shackles and handcuffs, and blindfolded, was taken to the reception room by prison guards.
After the blindfold was removed, Hong Kangquan squinted his eyes under the incandescent light in the room.
Vaguely, he saw a tall figure in military uniform standing with his back to him.
Then the man turned around and looked at him expressionlessly.
It was Huo Shaoheng.
Looking at him in the major general uniform, Hong Kangquan showed reluctance in his eyes.
He once wore a military uniform like this...
Although his military rank does not reach the level of major general, it is only one step away.
After so many years in the army, it was not without sadness when I retired.
It was only at this time that Hong Kangquan felt a trace of regret in his heart.
Huo Shaoheng pointed to the seats on both sides of the table in the middle of the reception room, "Sit down."
Hong Kangquan dragged his shackles and sat down. Huo Shaoheng sat opposite him, looked at him calmly and said, "What do you want from me?"
Hong Kangquan's lips were trembling violently, his face was gray, and the look in his eyes was dull.
After a while, he choked and said: "Shao Heng, I'm sorry for the country, the army, and the people. I was just confused and confused."
One wrong step, one wrong step after another, led to today's bitter consequences.
Huo Shaoheng nodded calmly, "Hong Kangquan, your momentary confusion not only harmed yourself, you also caused our soldiers to die in the Sea of Japan, and caused our country's secrets to be leaked. So if you want to repent, get Commute your sentence, don’t waste your efforts. I will definitely not agree to it.”
Hong Kangquan shook his head, his eye circles getting redder and redder.
"...I never thought about commuting my sentence, just like I never really wanted to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country." He held back tears and raised his head, "I'm sorry for the death of that soldier. Please convey my apology to his family on my behalf. , I have told my family members to compensate the loss to this soldier’s home.”
Huo Shaoheng said calmly: "The state has pensions and special policies that are enough to protect his family's life."
"I know, but this is my intention." Hong Kangquan laughed miserably, "Shao Heng, at this time, do you despise me?"
"No, I don't have that much free time." Huo Shaoheng became a little impatient, "Hong Kangquan, you are not a child. You cannot regret these things until the consequences are irreversible."
Hong Kangquan closed his eyes, "Okay, I wasted your time. What I want to tell you is that I only gave the Japanese the first phase of the quantum satellite technology, but the information in it is false. I didn't know the key parts. It has been replaced. The Japanese will not succeed in building a quantum satellite based on the information I gave them."
Huo Shaoheng was startled, "You only gave it to the Japanese? Are there others?"
"No, I'm going to die, so why bother you with this kind of panic." Hong Kangquan stood up, held up the handcuffs and said, "I can't salute you anymore."
After saying that, he bent down deeply and bowed to Huo Shaoheng, "...I'm sorry."
Hong Kangquan quickly turned around and left, and was taken to the execution ground by prison guards.
Huo Shaoheng put on his sunglasses and stood at the window.
After three gunshots, Hong Kangquan fell into a pool of blood.
Although most executions have now been replaced by intravenous injection, executions in military courts are still directly executed by shooting.
Huo Shaoheng walked over and carefully verified Hong Kangquan's identity before signing the death certificate.
After coming out of the execution ground, Huo Shaoheng went to see General Ji and showed him the video surveillance of his meeting with Hong Kangquan today.
General Ji was stunned for a moment when Hong Kangquan said that the quantum satellite technology he provided to Japan was problematic, and then turned to look at Huo Shaoheng: "Do you think what he said is true?"
Huo Shaoheng was accustomed to being skeptical, so he was noncommittal, "It depends on Japan's performance."
Japan certainly lived up to expectations.
The day after Hong Kangquan was shot, they announced that they had broken through the bottleneck of quantum satellite technology, perfected the first phase of technology, and launched a small quantum satellite.
But it also announced that quantum communication technology has inherent limitations and is not worthy of vigorous development, and decided not to provide state support for quantum communication technology.
The small quantum satellite they launched never entered the intended orbit and instead became a piece of space junk, which was severely condemned by environmentalists.
After watching the press conference in Japan, General Ji called Huo Shaoheng and said, "... maybe what Hong Kangquan said is true."
Huo Shaoheng did not refute, but said: "But Hong Kangquan is not a technician after all. He thought he had replaced key information, but the Japanese still broke through the technical bottleneck. Although it is shelved now, who knows if one day they will Someone among them was inspired to discover the power of quantum communication technology and restarted the experiment."
This is irrefutable.
Admiral Ji sighed deeply and hung up the phone.
…
There are only two days left before Speaker Long goes to India for a state visit.
The preliminary preparations have finally come to an end.
Assistant Zhuang announced a half-day holiday for everyone in the Secretariat, asking everyone to go back and relax and resume work tomorrow.
At this time, a tall and thin figure stood in Speaker Long's office. It was Special Assistant Yang who had been put on leave by Speaker Long.
Speaker Long sat at his desk, looked at the resignation letter and application form placed in front of him by Special Assistant Yang, and sighed slightly.
Assistant Yang said with a look of remorse: "President Long, I know I was wrong, and I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. I just hope that you will give me a way to survive for the sake of following you for more than ten years." .I will resign from the Parliamentary Secretariat as the price I must pay for my mistakes."
He has followed Chairman Long for more than ten years, and he has worked hard without any credit.
What's more, he is indeed capable, otherwise he would not have passed both interviews smoothly during the interview with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
But for him to successfully join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he still needs the approval of Speaker Long.
If Speaker Long does not sign his application, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' political review will not pass.
Speaker Long was reluctant to allow Special Assistant Yang to remain in the system.
But he also knew that, to put it bluntly, Special Assistant Yang's problem was that he was narrow-minded and put small shoes on his subordinate staff, which was not a big deal.
No one is perfect, so why should we exterminate him
Moreover, if he leaves the Parliament Secretariat and goes to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, his future development will be greatly restricted.
At least if he stays in the position of Speaker of the Parliament for one day, he will not let Special Assistant Yang have any chance to get ahead.
Speaker Long has always been relatively gentle and would not push people to a dead end.
Therefore, he just warned him: "You must remember the lesson of this time. You must be broad-minded and have a correct attitude. Competition depends on your own ability. You are a capable person, and you must not make detours."
"I will definitely not! I will never do it again!" Special Assistant Yang admitted his mistake with tears in his eyes, "If you don't object, I will admit my mistake to Gu Nianzhi now! Apologize publicly! I was really confused for a moment! She is so excellent, I Afraid that she will replace me..."
This is indeed what he means.
Speaker Long softened and signed the application, "Okay, no need for a public apology. No need for a resignation letter. I will have someone issue a notice of your negotiated resignation."
Resigning through negotiation is only slightly better than firing him, but certainly not as good as resigning yourself.
As a result, Special Assistant Yang's hope of promotion in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is indeed slim.
Assistant Yang's heart trembled, but he still did not struggle. He nodded and said: "Okay, thank you Speaker Long for your noble hand. I will definitely remember your great kindness."
Special Assistant Yang came to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the application signed by Speaker Long.
The director of the Asian Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was his old senior. He looked at his application and the notice of negotiated resignation without saying anything. He also signed it and asked someone to take him to go through the formalities.
After he left, the Secretary of the Secretary said in a low voice: "Director, I heard that he was dismissed due to conflicts with his colleagues in the parliament..."
"Yes, I know." The director nodded lightly, "There is nothing we can do. Even the people we sent are not willing to go to the Indian Embassy. At least he is willing."
Anyone who enters the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be required to stay abroad for a period of time.
But everyone is willing to go to developed countries. The conditions in other countries are not as good as those of the Chinese Empire. Not many people are willing to go, and they can't wait to draw lots to solve the problem.
This time, the Indian Embassy was really short of a lot of people, so the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urgently recruited people to supplement them, especially for Speaker Long's state visit.
"That's true. Moreover, he has been with Speaker Long for many years. Sending him to the Indian Embassy to coordinate the parliament's visit to India should get twice the result with half the effort." The secretary nodded in agreement.
Besides, their Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not an institution with real power. There is no oil and water, and it is far worse than the parliamentary secretariat.
The director of the Asia Department said: "According to urgency, let him go to the Indian Embassy for a while and then be transferred back for training."
…
Another day passed, and tomorrow was the day when Speaker Long and his party set off.
Gu Nianzhi drove his little red car to the Parliament Building to go to work.
During lunch, her intercom rang.
"Lawyer Gu, there are a few Japanese people who want to see you. They are in the lobby on the first floor of the Parliament Building."
Gu Nianzhi asked displeasedly: "Do they have an appointment? If they don't have an appointment, let them wait in line."
"Lawyer Gu, I asked, and they said they didn't make an appointment, but they said they were from Japan's 'Angels in the World' Foundation to apologize to you and also have something they want to hand over to you."
Gu Nianzhi's brows furrowed, "There's no need to apologize. I'm in a lawsuit with them and it's not convenient to meet them in person. Just ask them to take it back."
The receptionist there put down the phone and said to the Japanese people in front of them who were nodding and bowing: "I'm sorry, our lawyer Gu said it's not convenient to see you."
A Japanese said in blunt Chinese: "Please tell Lawyer Gu, of course! There is a box of things that Lawyer Gu's father left behind, and I want to hand it over to her personally."
The receptionist had no choice but to call Gu Nianzhi again.
"Lawyer Gu, these Japanese said they have something belonging to your father and they want to hand it over to you personally."
Gu Nianzhi thought for a moment, this was in the parliament building, why should he be afraid of the other party
She nodded, "Let them wait, I'll come down and take a look after I finish what I'm doing."
