“However, when our people arrived, other than the weapons, everyone responsible for transporting the goods was dead, including Viper.”
Qu Mingyi, “…!!!
“Have you identified who assisted us?”
Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang, who were applauded for performing an amazing feat, were dumbstruck. Clueless, they both answered simultaneously, “Don’t know.”
“They were all killed in a single hit. Could it be the same Q of Spade who helped us before? After all, everyone in the club died in the same manner.”
“How do you know so much?” Leng Jinpeng was surprised.
“Don’t you know that the Jiang District military base has shot up in fame?”
Leng Jinpeng, “…????”
“The outside world all claims that we got lucky. We were going to die, but someone powerful helped us and sealed the throats of all the criminals. Chi Yang was destined to die in Mustapha, but he was lucky enough to survive because of the internal strife in Mustapha’s political sphere. Instead of getting blamed for our major mistake, we were rewarded because of our good luck. A few members of the military base disagreed with us getting the kudos, but as the grand general said, luck is also a part of strength.”
Leng Jinpeng did not know whether to laugh or cry at Qu Mingyi’s words.
“Looks like you have quite a lot of information.”
“Am I wrong? After all, I came from Emperor District. How could I not know about this?”
Leng Jinpeng chuckled. “You’re a sly old fox. I really don’t understand why a genius like you would come to a small place like the Jiang District military base. What a waste of talent!”
Qu Mingyi laughed, at a loss for words. “Commander, why do you keep shoving dog chow in my face or teasing me all the time?”
“Alright, stop arguing. You don’t have a wife waiting for you at home, so you don’t need to go. My wife is waiting for me at home. Hurry up and play the next one.”
Leng Jinpeng thought to himself, ‘…Can a single person stuff them with dog chow too?’
Qu Mingyi, who had not seen his wife and children for a year and returned resentfully after seeing them less than ten days, thought, ‘…’
They were all lonely middle-aged men—they truly could not withstand any injuries to their hearts.
In an instant, heated arguments and complaints were replaced by silence. The moment Qu Mingyi returned, he accompanied Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang into the screening process.
Logically speaking, Qu Mingyi was also a major general, and he was also on the list of people suspected of leaking that information. However, Qu Mingyi had already started going through the process of visiting his family in Sab a month ago, so Chi Yang’s secret mission had not been revealed to him. Secondly, Qu Mingyi had come from Emperor District just like Leng Jinpeng. He had only arrived half a year earlier than Leng Jinpeng. Furthermore, the chaos in Jiang District started two years ago, which meant that there were already people who provided some form of convenience to the criminals as early as two years ago. Moreover, it was not just any form of convenience. Therefore, the suspicion on Qu Mingyi was almost zero and he had been spared the interrogation.
Qu Mingyi was also very capable. He quickly filtered through the information that Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang had selected and started his investigation.
The only loophole in this operation was the truck that transported the firearms. Since it was a licensed car and the model was the same as a military truck, it was easy to find.
After answering a call, Qu Mingyi said, “The information from the investigation department is out. After verification, those trucks carrying firearms are indeed the missing cars from the motor transport regiment. However, I think the possibility that the commander of the motor transport regiment is a mole is very low.
“If you were the commander of the motor transport regiment, would you be so foolish as to use your trucks, slap on a license plate, and transport the firearms?”
