Chapter 420 Dad
At the Bingqiao Residence, the sunlight was cut into tofu-like cubes by the lattice-like French windows. A butterfly fluttered its pink and white wings and landed lightly on the window sill. It seemed to be frightened by something and quickly flew away.
In the room, the bright red jacquard carpet was dyed dark brown by blood. On the wall where the sun could not reach, a decorative picture frame was leaning against the wall, and a bloody and hideous circular magic circle was smeared on the wall with dark red blood.
After finishing the last stroke, Feng Mengduo threw away the balled-up tie in his hand. The back of his blood-stained hand wiped away the falling sweat, leaving a blood mark like a scar on his face.
The magic circle emitted a faint red light like the beating of a heart. Feng Mengduo looked at the pitch-black light screen and a bloody taste rose in her mouth.
She gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Save my father, and I will agree to your terms."
When the sentry from the Military Intelligence Department who was ordered to capture Feng Mengduo rushed into the office of the Bingqiao Residence, he was blinded by a dazzling red light. When the red light faded, the room was empty. There were only overturned sculptures, crooked picture frames, and strange bloody runes on the wall, which gave off a creepy and cold atmosphere.
Ai Wanxin and He Shifeng were not aware of this for the time being. They arrested and detained relevant people, evacuated the people, and notified the administrative chiefs of each base to upgrade the security level...
After the live broadcast is cut off, the war without gunpowder begins.
The interior of the Temple of Dawn was set up as a temporary command center. Ai Wanxin's sentinels each led a team to search for the remnants, and the rest of the people, under the command of He Shifeng, performed their respective duties to carry out the cleanup work.
However, whether they were reporting or asking for instructions, the moment the officials stepped into the Temple of Dawn and saw Ai Wanxin standing next to He Shifeng, they couldn't help but lighten their footsteps and didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.
Every time he summoned an official to meet with him, He Shifeng would quietly tell Ai Wanxin the person's position and brief resume.
It was also here that Ai Wanxin saw for the first time how complicated the operation of the state machinery was.
After all matters concerning Guanghui City were arranged, only He Shifeng, Ai Wanxin and Han Ang were left in the hall.
He Shifeng thought for a moment and said, "Wanxin, the executive officers of Kuicheng, Zhucheng, Yecheng, and Qicheng have all been controlled. The current situation of these four bases plus the Songcheng base is not optimistic."
The sentinels' habits were similar to those of wolves, which brought new difficulties to management. In particular, the executive officers of these bases fought their way through the construction and defense of the apocalyptic bases. The sentinels who stayed in the bases were likely to feel puzzled and resistant to their arrest. After all -
"At the time, Feng Jingyi was still the speaker. It was reasonable for them to follow the speaker's orders. We could only temporarily detain him in the name of assisting the investigation. The subsequent handling will depend on the results of the investigation. However, in the meantime, in order to avoid a mutiny at the base, we must quickly select the right person to go to the base to assist the chief executive in stabilizing the situation."
Ai Wanxin readily agreed: "I originally planned to transfer Qin Tianlang, the executive officer of Frost City. His mental strength level and ability are both enough for the important task. As for Frost City, Brigade Commander Shan Pengcheng is still very familiar with it. He can be allowed to go back after taking notes."
"Songcheng's Bu Yuanxun was born in the Marine Corps, so He Yang should face less resistance in going to Songcheng than others."
"Han Ce is from the Guards of Glory City. I think it will be more effective if he is sent to the base where the executive officer who is also from the Guards is located."
Han Ang frowned deeply at the side: "The selection of base executive officers needs to go through strict review and assessment. How can it be nepotism as you said?"
Ai Wanxin turned to He Shifeng and said aggrievedly: "Dad, he said I was nepotism."
He Shifeng was stunned by the word "Dad" and subconsciously said, "Dad... Dad will talk to him for you."
Han Ang felt a complex emotion in his heart. It was obvious that He Yang and she were just playing around, and his son was the one who plunged into it headfirst. If anyone wanted to call him dad, he should be called dad. How could she call He Shifeng "dad" in front of him? He was so angry!
He Shifeng said to Han Ang, "Old Han, what Wanxin said is indeed the most suitable candidate at the moment. Don't bring your personal emotions into work."
Ai Wanxin nodded: "Yes, you don't want Han Ce to go out and make achievements, but you say that I am nepotism. You are such an adult, why are you so unreasonable?"
The terminal on Han Ang's arm began to buzz again. How could this girl be so irritating? She pissed him off!
He Shifeng and Ai Wanxin briefly discussed the candidates for executive officers to be sent to the five major bases. In addition to Qin Tianlang, He Yang and Han Ce, they selected two more respected generals from the military. They would wait for the parliament to pass the meeting tomorrow and then rush to these bases with the security bureau personnel.
However, the two of them talked for a long time but did not mention the re-election of the mayor or the reorganization of the cabinet.
Han Ang watched coldly, vaguely aware that they had an unspoken understanding on this matter. Not electing a speaker or setting up a cabinet, what did they want to do...
Just when Han Ang was lost in thought, He Shifeng asked about the evidence of Feng Jingyi's illegal crimes.
Ai Wanxin looked at the empty hall and said with a smile: "Dad, there are only two of us here, so I will tell you the truth."
"I do have evidence of Feng Jingyi's crime, but there is no evidence chain. The Speaker's Order received by the 9th Mountain Division was torn up. The stolen reagents from the Academy of Sciences later flowed to the underground black market, which led to the Blue Fox Mercenary Group. The boss of the Blue Fox Mercenary Group is the boss of Glacier Technology. However, we have not caught anyone who can prove that the actual owner of the Blue Fox Mercenary Group is the boss of Glacier Technology, and the boss of Glacier Technology has not been caught either. I don't know why Feng Jingyi didn't refute it just now. Maybe he was too guilty."
He Shifeng and Han Ang stood there in a daze as if they had been struck by lightning.
Han Ang was so shocked that his voice changed: "You dare to testify against the Speaker without any witnesses, are you crazy?"
"Because I promised the soldiers who died in the 9th Mountain Division's base that I would make public the injustice they suffered and the evil done by Feng Jingyi." Ai Wanxin blinked, "Besides, Feng Jingyi can use old news that has nothing to do with me to throw dirty water on me. Why do I need solid evidence to prove him?"
"Old Han, you don't think I'm some kind of saint who values martial virtues, do you?"
Old Han...
Han Ang felt a breath stuck in his chest, unable to move up or down.
Why is He Shifeng the father, but I am Old Han?
Besides, why are there only two people here? Am I not a human?!
However, Han Ang once again refreshed his perception of Ai Wanxin's courage. He belatedly realized that his heartbeat quickened and he became dizzy.
Dai Qun and Feng Jingyi were trapped in front of the Temple of Dawn. The guards of Glory City were led by Han Ce. If it were anyone else, the guards would surely launch a crazy counterattack and Glory City would immediately fall into chaos.
In addition to the guards, the army's reorganized Fifth Mechanic Division and other troops were stationed around Guanghui City, but He Shifeng reached some kind of agreement with her.
Among the other executive officers of the nine bases, Bu Yuanxun was captured in advance, Li Fanbo of Zhangcheng followed her lead, and Tai Shi Ning and Jian Huaixi joined her side at some point in time.
Apart from Chi Xiangdi, whose stance was unclear, she only needed to deal with four executive officers from the Marine Battalion or the Guards. Obviously, the four executive officers posed no threat to the four sentinels around her.
No wonder she dared to be so unscrupulous and take an extreme approach, first pinning the blame on Feng Jingyi in front of the whole country.
It seems daring, but in fact, victory is certain.
If this was premeditated, then her mind is truly unfathomable. If my son were to be with her, I'm afraid even his bones would be eaten up!
