Chapter 686: Chapter 552: Conversation (Extra chapter for Silver Alliance Leader Arain) (Part 4)
Soon, Daisy brought Su Mo to the familiar review room, where they saw Fan Wu with his head bandaged and propping up his chin, moaning in pain.
At that moment, Daisy spoke indifferently.
“Fan Wu, you can take off your clothes and change back.”
Upon hearing this, Fan Wu suddenly snapped to attention, turning his head to look at Su Mo with a mournful expression.
“Big brother, you’re finally back! I thought you weren’t coming back. If you hadn’t returned, I wouldn’t have known how to explain. But why are you back? This issue should have been resolved, the White Hole incident has already been confirmed.”
“I came back to serve out my confinement, so as not to embarrass you.” Latest content published on novel·fiɾe·net
“Wait, damn, isn’t this pointing out the elephant in the room? If the White Hole incident was revealed by you, doesn’t that mean your escape has been exposed?”
Fan Wu suddenly realized.
“Exactly, not just exposed, Augustus, Li Ruiqi, and Lord Spade all know.”
Su Mo replied with a slight smile.
“It’s over, my career is finished, breaking the law knowing the law…”
Fan Wu looked utterly defeated.
Daisy coldly said, “Have you said enough?”
Upon hearing Daisy’s words, Fan Wu quickly came to his senses and hastened to speak to Daisy.
“Commander Daisy, you can’t betray me at the critical moment, you have to protect me.”
“Cough, my escape wasn’t your fault. If the higher-ups inquire, just blame it on me, I’ll take full responsibility,” Su Mo coughed and said, after all, they had helped him.
Fan Wu said to Su Mo with a mournful face, “Big brother, you made a great contribution, the higher-ups of course won’t do anything to you. But we’re doomed, plain and simple. As members of the Black and White Organization, letting someone escape is a grave crime, a crime of breaking the law knowingly, that’s a matter of principle.”
Daisy interrupted Fan Wu.
Fan Wu immediately shut his mouth,
Daisy turned to Su Mo and said, “According to the regulations, you need to continue in isolation and reflect until the seven days are up. If there are any special orders from above, I will notify you immediately. As for the remaining matters, you needn’t worry about them. We, as reviewers of the Black and White Organization, have our principles and integrity.”
Fan Wu, hearing Daisy’s words, looked stunned and agape, wanting to say something, but eventually, he closed his mouth.
Su Mo clearly understood Daisy’s words and felt genuinely impressed.
Just then, a series of heavy and forceful footsteps approached.
Su Mo and the others instinctively looked over, only to see Spade and an old man with a hawk nose and fierce eyes, dressed in a black and white uniform, appearing at the doorway.
Fan Wu felt like he was about to die, the reviewer of the Black and White Organization had personally arrived.
Inside the entire Black and White Organization, everyone’s fear of Valifa was even stronger than their fear of Spade and the others.
Valifa took a deep breath, his expression steely as he said, “Fan Wu, Daisy, you two go and undergo the review.”
Daisy replied expressionlessly.
Su Mo was about to speak when Valifa turned to him and said, “Major Su Mo, this issue doesn’t involve you. It’s an internal matter, please refrain from making any comments.”
Su Mo also wore a helpless expression.
Soon, Daisy and Fan Wu left, leaving only Spade, Valifa, and Su Mo in the interrogation room.
Valifa closed the door of the interrogation room.
Spade spoke with a complex expression, “Regarding the military intelligence transmission error, we have now clarified everything. You are not at fault in any way, so all punishments concerning you are canceled. Furthermore, we will reflect on this internally.”
Su Mo was also quite surprised; he hadn’t expected Spade and his team to admit their mistake. Of course, Su Mo wasn’t foolish enough to rub salt in the wound, and he cleared his throat before speaking.
“You can’t be blamed for this, since the White Hole intelligence was somewhat difficult to accept.”
“Let’s not talk about that anymore. You did exceedingly well this time. The merit you have earned can’t be described as ordinary. Frankly speaking, you saved Black Brilliance and everyone on it,”
Spade expressly praised.
“Lord Spade, you’re exaggerating a bit…”
Su Mo wasn’t quite used to this.
“No, I’m not joking; I’m serious. If it weren’t for your steadfast pre-warning, we would have been finished. For this reason, after discussing with Augustus and Li Ruiqi, we unanimously agreed that your merit qualifies you to apply for the First-Class Federation Medal,”
Spade said very solemnly.
Hearing Spade’s words, a trace of emotion also appeared on Valifa’s aged face, as if he was utterly shocked.
Contrarily, Su Mo showed no reaction at all.
Seeing Su Mo’s unchanged expression, Spade explained, “Do not underestimate this First-Class Federation Medal, so far only four people have received it.”
“I know, Wang Hai and the other three,”
“Correct, but the significance of their medals is different from yours,”
Spade said with a slight smile.
Su Mo asked, somewhat surprised.
“Let me tell you the truth; Wang Hai and the others received the First-Class Federation Medal because they have accumulated a significant amount of military merit over a long period. Have you noticed that all four of them come from different regions? Frankly, those four medals are practically self-awarded within their own regions and don’t carry much weight. But if your application for the First-Class Federation Medal passes, it will be completely different. It will be the first genuinely significant First-Class Medal of the Federation, a great honor,”
“Of course, aside from the First-Class Medal, there will also be a substantial reward and a promotion in military rank. However, all these have to be applied for once we return to the Federation since the rewards are substantial and require the Council President’s approval. But rest assured, all these rewards are essentially from the entire crew of Black Brilliance, and there is no issue on our side. There will definitely be no problems with the approval from the Federation side; you won’t miss out on anything,”
Spade said calmly to Su Mo. He thought internally that Su Mo came from Zone Z and was Li Ruiqi’s man; if Long Ming doesn’t approve it, it would be truly unbelievable.
Su Mo nodded in agreement.
“Alright, let’s leave it at that. Lastly, this is a personal expression of my gratitude,”
Spade sincerely said.
“Lord Spade, you needn’t do that; it’s all for the Federation,”
“No need for that, I truly thank you personally. If it wasn’t for your warning, we truly wouldn’t be here now,”
Spade said liberally.
Seeing Spade insist, Su Mo didn’t say much more.
