Chapter 1995: Anger
Colonel Tan, who really wanted to test her, couldn’t help sitting up a little. He looked seriously at the military cadet, who was like the saying, “a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.” At this time, Colonel Tan didn’t have a slight smile on his face. On the contrary, he had a kind of cold expression as if the air he breathed out was squeezed and twisted.
“Ye Jian, how much do you know?” He asked again, no longer beating around the bush. From Ye Jian, he saw the rigidity that a soldier should have, not yielding to power and not disdain to calculate.
It was better to speak with them openly and upright.
Ye Jian really didn’t like temptation. Since the Military Discipline Inspection Commission had stepped in and the Commander-in-Chief said that they were all credible leaders, she believed in his arrangements and the senior Colonel in front of her.
Her clear black eyes stared at the colonel, neither humble nor arrogant, and calmly replied, “Director Cai said a lot, … plus I had some vague guesses before, so I know a bit. This time I suddenly came to the Military Discipline Inspection Commission; seeing you and the two figures that flashed past the door just now, I am even more certain that the person who harmed my mother’s sacrifice is not someone of a small rank.”
“Otherwise, how can he suddenly alarm the leadership of the Military Discipline Inspection Commission?”
Colonel Tan put his hands on the walnut desk. He was surprised, then he asked in a deep voice, “As far as I know, Director Cai didn’t say much, Ye Jian, how did you guess it?”
“He didn’t say too much, and he just spoke what needed to be said.”
Facing the majesty emanating from the Colonel, Ye Jian calmly replied, “With the key points, I can think deeply and combine all kinds of factors to come up with what I think is the most probable guess. Chief, this is not a difficult thing for me.”
“First of all, my mother’s deeds in her life were erased for no reason, and the army was not aware of it during her lifetime; even the military department did not know it. This alone can show that this person’s identity is not simple.”
“Secondly, your appearance, and the other two chiefs. Y’alls high rank shocked me, and it shows that my mother’s sacrifice is by no means simple.”
“Furthermore, I know that when my mother returned from her sacrifice, the prime minister personally covered her coffin with our national flag and told the troops to take good care of me, but I was not taken care of by the troops before I was in second grade.”
“On the contrary, Director Cai and the others thought that I had fallen into the water and died at a young age. Chief, how can I not make guesses? I guessed a lot, but I still couldn’t believe it.”
She had guessed a lot, but she still couldn’t believe it…
Her simple and calm tone made all the chiefs who heard it feel extremely heavy.
Even when things were so tough, she still believed in the army and her country; that was why even though she had a lot of doubts a lot, she still couldn’t believe it.
Commander-in-Chief Xia and Major General Song had their faces as deep as water. How could they disappoint the soldiers who were loyal to the country and the army! They absolutely couldn’t do that!
“Old Xia, no matter how large the scope of this matter is, we have to join hands and vow to find out the truth!” Major General Song clenched his fists, thumped the table angrily, and said sternly, “I don’t believe that under strict investigation, we will not find out the truth!”
He was the leader of the investigation team. The top leader gave him full authority to investigate the matter in order to give the Martyr Sun Xueqing justice.
In the meeting room, Ye Jian revealed her guessing method, which was all based on what Director Cai had said. It was reasonable and impeccable that Colonel Tan kept nodding. Occasionally, when he raised questions, Ye Jian could answer immediately, and also through her prudent, logical reasoning to rationalize things again.
