"General Luo talked to me before the accident and said that he knew a secret that could subvert the alliance, and he had evidence. Although he didn't explain it, he should be referring to the president." Chu Feng said.
Luo Zhouzhou asked: "Then did he tell you what the secret is?"
"No." Chu Feng shook his head.
"Then can you guess what it is?"
"also can not."
Luo Zhouzhou said blankly: "Then I still don't know anything."
"General Luo is tight-lipped. There are some things that only he can tell you. But I can tell you about mine." Chu Feng said.
Luo Zhouzhou asked in surprise: "Is there something between you and the president?"
After thinking for a while, Chu Feng replied: "Actually, I have always suspected that Calgar was related to the death of my comrade-in-arms, and I have been searching for evidence for so long."
Luo Zhouzhou opened his eyes slightly, "It's related to the death of your comrade-in-arms, how did you know?"
"On the day we carried out the mission, everyone was crowded into a truck. We can usually complete the arduous task, so this time, no one cared about it. Except for checking the firearms, it was just a joke."
Chu Feng clasped his hands on the edge of the bed, looked sideways out the window, and fell into memory.
"Everyone was very relaxed, except for one person who was unusually nervous. He usually likes to joke and laugh, but this time he didn't say a word, just buried his head and wiped the gun. I was sitting next to him at the time, and when I bumped into him, I found him trembling."
…
On a road that was about to be abandoned in Beardor, two military trucks were driving, and behind each were special soldiers with guns in their hands.
"Wang Jun, lighter."
Chu Feng wore a steel helmet on his head, painted camouflage on his face, and held a cigarette diagonally in his mouth.
Wang Jun, who was sitting outside, touched his body, threw a small silver item to him, and said, "I never leave my cigarette, but I never bring a lighter."
"I forgot as soon as I changed clothes." Chu Feng said lazily, catching the lighter thrown in the air.
After lighting the cigarette in his mouth, he was about to throw it back. Wang Jun said, "Put it away yourself, so as not to ask me to take it later."
Chu Feng was not polite, and put the lighter in his pocket.
"Aren't you usually addicted to smoking? Why don't you smoke anymore?" Chu Feng asked Gu Shuming who was sitting beside him.
Gu Shuming and he came from the same Bearduo. He usually speaks the most, and he is a mess of words. But now he kept his head down without saying a word, and he didn't pick up the cigarette just now.
"Old Gu, what about you, why don't you speak?" Chu Feng touched Gu Shuming with his elbow.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Gu Shuming jumped up and grabbed the gun beside him.
Chu Feng was taken aback and looked at him in astonishment.
Gu Shuming only reacted when he saw the scene in the car, and explained to Chu Feng with a strong smile, "I just fell asleep, I'm dreaming."
After speaking, he wiped his face and sat down again.
Seeing that his face was abnormally pale, Chu Feng couldn't help but ask, "Lao Gu, are you not feeling well? I see that you are not quite right."
Gu Shuming shook his head, looked at his hand, and said, "It's nothing, it's just a dream."
Chu Feng said nothing, and began to lower his head and wipe the gun in his hand.
Just after wiping the barrel of the gun, out of the corner of his eyes, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Gu Shuming's hand on his thigh, which kept shaking.
He put down the gun and said in a low voice, "Old Gu, you're not in a good state. Do you want to ask the captain a leave, and don't go on this mission."
Gu Shuming glanced sideways at him with a strange look in his eyes.
Then he leaned closer and said, "Chu Feng, you have to be careful with today's task."
"I know, I'm very careful every time I do a mission." Chu Feng took his shoulder soothingly and patted him hard.
"That's not what I'm referring to. If there is anything unusual today, absolutely don't fight, retreat as soon as you can, hide as soon as you can, even if the captain hasn't ordered, you have to hide." Gu Shuming continued.
Chu Feng laughed dumbly and said, "Old Gu, what's the matter with you? Today, we are going to exterminate a group of truth followers, not facing thousands of troops. Besides, if there are too many people on the other side, we don't have... that ?"
He didn't say it explicitly, but Gu Shuming knew that he was talking about Benzodiol.
Gu Shuming did not relax because of what he said, but became more anxious, shaking his feet nervously, and his eyes were straight.
"Chu Feng, you believe me, as long as the situation is not right, hide it immediately."
Chu Feng looked at his expression, frowned and asked, "Old Gu, do you know anything?"
Gu Shuming was silent and did not answer, Chu Feng looked at him in the slight bump of the truck.
After a while, he approached Chu Feng and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "This mission must be dangerous. I'm going to withdraw if I'm not ready anyway. Tell you, the mission can't be easily accomplished."
"Why?" Chu Feng asked in a low voice, "Since you have said everything here, then tell me the reason."
Gu Shuming looked up at him, his eyes were covered with red threads.
He gritted his teeth and said in a breathy voice, "Kalgar will stop us from completing our mission."
Seeing Chu Feng's shocked expression, he added: "Remember, if the situation is not right, you can run and run, don't fight hard. If someone dies, put the account on Calgar's head."
…
"As a result, something went wrong on that mission. And it's not like Gu Shuming imagined that they would face a very severe battle. Before they could go to the battlefield, they all fell silently..."
After Chu Feng told Luo Zhouzhou this passage, he looked at the sky outside the window.
In the gray sky, a few pigeons passed by like small ink dots.
"So, have you begun to doubt Calgar?" Luo Zhouzhou asked.
Chu Feng shook his head and said, "I didn't doubt Calgar because of Gu Shuming's remarks. I thought he was too nervous. The real thing that let me know that Calgar had a problem was a few days later."
"In a few days?"
"Sihan and I wanted to meet our comrades, but we couldn't see each other for the last time, and we didn't tell us any information."
Chu Feng laughed at himself, "We both grumble with those little officers every day. I don't know that they were already cremated on the day of the accident."
"A few days later, I made an oath on their graves to find the person who handed me the lockbox. But even a small logistics officer can stop me, how can I find the real murderer for them?"
"So, I need power, power to investigate this matter freely."
"Our group of students can contact Calgar directly, so I found him. I said to give him loyalty and life, as long as I can investigate this matter."
"Then did he agree?" Luo Zhouzhou asked while holding his breath.
Chu Feng replied lightly, "He agreed."
…
In the spacious and bright living room, Chu Feng was wearing a low-ranking officer's uniform, with his hands on his knees, and his upper body was sitting upright on the bench, waiting for President Calgar's summons.
"Your Excellency has a meeting now, and he asked you to wait here for a while." The beautiful and dignified secretary brought him a cup of coffee and placed it on the coffee table beside him.
"Thank you." Chu Feng nodded in thanks.
With a handsome face, tall stature, and polite manners, he made the secretary run three times to the conference hall in just half an hour.
It's just that the young officer seemed to be ill-spoken. When she brought up countless topics, he was choked off by him in just a few words.
Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief after the secretary finally had nothing to say and left.
He connected the terminal with Calgar last night, expressed his loyalty, and begged him to investigate the deaths of his comrades.
After Calgar heard his words, he immediately agreed and asked him to come to the presidential palace today.
When Chu Feng thought of this, his heart was filled with gratitude for this alliance president.
Many of the current alliance officials are still nobles from the empire period. Even if the empire no longer exists, they still retain a lot of class preferences and the extravagance of the past, which caused the first-time alliance president to have a headache.
The nobles were as drunk as before, and there were civilians starving to death on the side of the road in Beardur.
Seeing that the grievances were getting worse and worse, the first president's term was not over, and he resigned as president.
Calgar responded at this time.
Although he is only a local consul of Beardor, he has always been close to the people and has won a lot of rights and interests for the common people, winning the respect of the local people.
When he participated in the presidential campaign, the voice of support grew stronger. In the end, he defeated his strong competitor by ten votes, and successfully became the president of the Taron Union.
Calgar took over the presidency in just a few short years. Under his leadership, the alliance developed in a good direction and swept away the previous dilapidated state.
He removed the power of the nobles, established a research institute to conquer Xiyan, and gave the common people the right to receive basic education.
He even asked the military academy to recruit ordinary people, sending many civilian-born officers to the military.
Through these series of measures, Calgar's reputation has become more and more prosperous in the past two years, and its reputation among the public has reached its peak.
Because of the phone call with Calgar last night, Chu Feng saw a glimmer of hope in his heart full of despair and resentment.
If he can get the support and help of His Excellency the President, he can find the murderers of his comrades and avenge them.
In the huge living room, now only Chu Feng is alone.
The dark red velvet curtains were drawn, and the sun shone through the arc-shaped windows.
Chu Feng squinted and looked at the lawn outside the window.
The beautiful secretary walked in again and asked thoughtfully, "Second Lieutenant Chu, the meeting of His Excellency the President is still a while away. Do you need anything else?"
Chu Feng took the third cup of coffee she brought in, took a sip, and said with a smile, "No need, thank you."
Then he turned his head and continued to look out the window.
The secretary stayed for a while and then walked out of the living room.
As soon as she walked out of the door, Chu Feng heard her say loudly: "The light in my office is broken, you go to replace the light tube. Also, there is a problem with the shredder, which is good and bad, you can also check by the way. a bit."
"Yes." Someone at the other end of the corridor replied.
After the secretary left, the conference hall became quiet again, except for the chirping of birds outside the window and the occasional sound of the cleaner opening the door next to it.
Chu Feng was still sitting on the chair, waiting patiently for Calgar.
At this time, there was a movement in the room not far away, as if someone fell to the ground, and there was a short painful cry.
"How are you? Are you okay?" The secretary's exclamation also followed.
Chu Feng got up quickly and walked out of the living room.
I saw a door on the right side of the corridor suddenly opened, and the secretary ran out in panic.
Seeing Chu Feng, she hurriedly asked for help: "Second Lieutenant Chu, the maintenance worker fell off the lamp tube, can you help me?"
Chu Feng didn't say a word and ran over quickly.
The house is not big, but it is full of filing cabinets, full of documents.
In the center of the room was a stool, and a maintenance worker in blue overalls sat on the ground, holding his feet with a pale face.
The floor of the room was made of hard marble, and he fell hard this time, with red oozing from his knees.
"Are you alright?" Chu Feng asked him as he helped him up.
The maintenance worker hissed and breathed in cold air, and said, "Ankle, ankle pain."
"Let me see." Chu Feng crouched down, rolled up his trousers, and saw that his ankles were already swollen.
He reached out and pressed it, and said to the maintenance worker, "It's fine, it's a little sprained, just rub some medicinal wine and rest for a few days."
"Then can he still walk?" The secretary asked standing at the door.
The maintenance worker broke off Chu Feng's hand, took a few steps on his toes, and answered cautiously, "I can."
The secretary frowned and said, "Then you go back to the rest room. I'll notify the doctor later and let him show you."
"But the lamp has just been replaced, and the shredder hasn't had time to check." The maintenance worker said a little nervously.
Chu Feng saw him with a terrified look on his face. Obviously, this secretary was quite strict at ordinary times, so that even if he was injured, he would not dare to leave like this.
"Miss, if you don't mind, I can help look at the shredder." Chu Feng turned to the secretary and said.
The secretary looked surprised and asked, "Can you repair a paper shredder?"
Chu Feng said: "When we were in the military academy, we had to learn a little about everything."
The secretary smiled and said, "If Second Lieutenant Chu can repair it, it would be best to check it for me. But will it delay your time?"
"You're welcome, Miss, I'm fine sitting there anyway," Chu Feng replied.
"Then I'll trouble you." The secretary smiled.
After the maintenance worker left, Chu Feng opened the toolbox he left behind and took out the tools to be used. Then he took off his military jacket, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and started taking apart the shredder to examine the inside.
"My name is Li Siqi." The secretary sat down on the chair, looked at his muscular forearm and said, "Second Lieutenant Chu can call me Siqi."
Chu Feng said without raising his head, "Miss Li, please pass me that red screwdriver."
"You're welcome, just call me Si Qi."
"Miss Li, please pass me the screwdriver, the red one."
Li Siqi's smile disappeared, and he handed him the screwdriver with a flat expression, and stopped talking.
The room fell silent, only the sound of Chu Feng repairing the shredder was heard.
"It's fixed, let's try it out."
Ten minutes later, Chu Feng stood up straight and let out a long breath.
Li Siqi turned around and opened the password locker behind him, took out a lot of document bags and put them beside the shredder.
"Look, all the waste paper to be shredded these days is here. Two bags every day, one bag in the morning and one bag in the afternoon, can't be disposed of, all piled up here."
Chu Feng glanced at it and saw that the document bags had the date written on them, and also marked the morning or the afternoon.
It seems that Li Siqi, as a secretary, treats work very meticulously.
She took a document bag at random, took out a few more documents, stuffed them into the entrance of the shredder, and pressed the key.
The shredder was motionless and unresponsive.
"It's still not good." Li Siqi looked at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng frowned and said, "Where is the problem?"
"Your Excellency Calgar is good everywhere, but he is too reluctant to spend money. This shredder is always having problems. Every time it is repaired, I am reluctant to replace it with a new one." Li Siqi complained.
Chu Feng didn't answer, and was still looking at the shredder, thinking about it.
"Ah! Look at my memory." Li Siqi suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "I unplugged the shredder when the maintenance worker came."
After she finished speaking, she squatted down and reached behind the shredder to plug it in.
Chu Feng waited for her to plug in, and put down the cuffs of his shirt.
His eyes slid unconsciously over the document bag that was put aside, and suddenly stopped.
When Li Siqi was picking out the documents just now, the following ones were also brought out, half of which were exposed outside the document bag.
The top one has a line clearly printed on it: Application for Operation Bavo Church.
Below is a line of black small print, writing the reason for applying for this task.
Below is the list of people who carried out this operation. At that moment, Chu Feng saw several familiar names.
Chu Feng is very familiar with this kind of application form. Every time before they have an action, the captain will quickly print it out and send it directly to the military.
When the military department approves the application, after their current mission is over, the captain will go to the military department again, sign the application form, write that the mission has been completed or fail to complete, and then seal it in the confidential room.
Every time the captain frowned and gritted his teeth, when he wrote the application form carefully on the terminal, he would read it aloud, asking whether the sentence made sense.
So Chu Feng reacted as soon as he saw this application form. This was the mission application form sent by the captain to the military before their operation.
The execution time of their operation was on the afternoon of June 5th.
But the date marked on the file bag is the morning of June 5th.
That is to say, these documents were invalidated on the morning of June 5th and need to be shredded.
It was not planned that after they return from the task, the captain will sign the sentence on this application form again - the task has been completed.
It turned out that before they set off, someone knew clearly that this mission could not be completed.
When they ate in the cafeteria and discussed the action in the afternoon, when they smeared paint on their faces and sat in the back of the military truck to wipe the barrels of their guns, in the eyes of others, they were already dead.
"Second Lieutenant Chu, Second Lieutenant Chu..." Li Siqi's voice made Chu Feng wake up.
He saw Li Siqi take two steps back and was looking at him with horror.
"Lieutenant Chu, are you okay?" Li Siqi's voice changed.
Chu Feng tried to calm his voice and said, "I'm fine."
"You looked so scary just now..." Li Siqi couldn't help but glance at him several times.
Chu Feng said: "I was distracted just now, thinking about other things."
Li Siqi was obviously frightened by him, and said tremblingly: "The shredder is ready, thank you Second Lieutenant Chu, you can wash your hands, the meeting with Your Excellency Calgar will end soon, and he will meet you in the living room after he comes out. ."
"understood."
General Chu Feng put on his arm, walked out from Li Siqi's side, and entered the bathroom.
He locked the door, washed his hands over and over again, and recalled the document he had just seen over and over again.
He splashed water on his face, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
It wasn't until he looked into the mirror and could no longer see the hatred on the faces of the people inside, then wiped off the water stains, put on his military uniform, and tidied it up without any wrinkles, and returned to the living room.
He sat calmly on the chair in the living room, his hands still on his knees, his upper body straight.
After hearing the footsteps and voices of Calgar's group, he stood up and faced the direction of the door of the living room.
Calga stepped into the living room and smiled at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng leaned on his feet, gave a standard military salute, and said loudly, "Chu Feng has seen His Excellency the President."
"Sit and sit, don't stand, are you in a hurry?" Calgar walked behind the desk with a smile, pressed the intercom again, and said, "Two cups of coffee."
He raised his head and asked Chu Feng, "Do you want to add sugar?"
Chu Feng pinched his palm fiercely, showing an appropriate, flattered expression, and replied, "No sugar, thank you, Your Excellency."
