"To be honest, you're lucky. If you didn't set the third and thirteenth legions up, causing all the factions in the military to fight for their own benefits and have no spare energy to care about you, you might have really stayed in Soldier City and been investigated by the military. At that time, it would have been much harder for you to escape. " Ling Xiao rejoiced silently. The trap Ling Lan had set up was originally just to use as a bait to test Tan Shui from the military. Who would have thought that it would turn out to be a mistake? Not only did it allow them to reap the benefits, it also allowed Ling Lan to escape from a crisis. Now that she was back in the 23rd division, it wouldn't be easy for the other party to move against his daughter.
Ling Xiao's eyes turned cold. Since those people dared to betray his daughter, they should be prepared to lose everything.
"Do you know why they reported you?" Ling Xiao saw that Ling Lan didn't ask about this so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Since the military is so cautious and even sent people from the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee to investigate, it should be about my training." Ling Lan didn't need to think to know that this was the only thing that would cause them to criticize her.
"Do you know what the crime is?" Ling Xiao gave a satisfied smile. His daughter was able to detect the problem so quickly. This meant that she was a smart and sensitive person. Even if she encountered other schemes in the future, she would be able to handle them.
Actually, Ling Xiao didn't contact Ling Lan not because he was afraid that their relationship would be exposed. So what if their relationship was exposed? When had he, Ling Xiao, ever been afraid of anyone? He wanted to let everyone know that he, Ling Xiao, had an outstanding son. Erm, what was going on?
In short, Ling Xiao wanted to use this opportunity to test Ling Lan's ability to deal with problems. After all, as long as Ling Lan was still in the military, there would be many conflicts and schemes from different factions. She needed to get used to it. Ling Xiao was very satisfied with Ling Lan's performance so far.
"You can't get rid of the charges of cruelty and violation of human rights." Ling Lan replied nonchalantly. Ever since she decided to use this method to force those mecha operators to break out of their cocoons and become butterflies, she was already prepared for this.
"Is there any way to deal with it?" Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked. Knowing the problem but not having the ability to solve it was also unqualified.
"It's simple. I won't admit it." Ling Lan sneered. Other than the testimonies of the mecha operators, the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee wouldn't be able to get any evidence. Since she knew that there might be such consequences, why would she leave such evidence behind? Those videos had long been disposed of by Little Four. Without Little Four's ability, it would be impossible to recover them.
"Don't let the testimony of the mecha operators exceed 10% of the entire mecha clan. Otherwise, even if there is no evidence, the other party can still file a case," Ling Xiao reminded.
"Don't worry. I have a way to deal with it." Ling Lan smiled. The game had started. Originally, she wanted to find a chance to kick those people out of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. She didn't expect the other party to give her a reason to kick them out of 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
Ling Lan didn't know if she should laugh at them for thinking that they were smart or pity them for shooting themselves in the foot. She just hoped that they wouldn't regret their actions.
After chatting for a while, Ling Lan said goodbye to her parents. At this moment, Ling Xiao suddenly asked, "Who was that little brat at the start?" He had been by Ling Lan's side for the past three months but he didn't see such a small child at her side. Ling Xiao thought of the A.I., Meng Lan. Did Little Four come from the same place as Meng Lan?
Ling Lan wanted to tell him the truth but she suddenly had a thought. She straightened her face and said seriously, "Dad, after so many years, you still don't want to give me an official identity?"
"Ling Xiao?" Lan Luofeng, who had been smiling as she watched the conversation between the father and daughter, shouted angrily when she heard this sentence.
"That's not true." Ling Xiao's face turned pale. He glared at Ling Lan angrily and quickly comforted his wife. She shouldn't listen to rumors.
"Mom, I love you. Also, Dad, please take care of yourself. " Ling Lan had a teasing look on her face. Lan Luofeng, who originally thought that Ling Xiao had wronged her, immediately understood that this was Ling Lan's prank. She felt angry and amused at the same time. It seemed that Ling Lan had also noticed the problem between her and Ling Xiao. Thus, she wanted to give her a chance to vent her anger.
She was really a considerate little girl. Lan Luofeng's eyes turned red again. However, in the blink of an eye, she regained her composure. Since this was her daughter's kindness, she shouldn't waste it.
As for Ling Xiao, he was definitely in pain but happy at the same time. He hated and loved his daughter's prank. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Ling Lan's face disappeared. She returned to her usual cold expression. She quickly washed up and changed into a clean uniform. At the same time, she ordered Li Lanfeng and Li Shiyu to accompany her to the meeting room to participate in this battle that wouldn't cause any trouble.
The sinister Li Lanfeng was much more suitable than the straightforward Han Jijyun to deal with this kind of scheming, scheming, and even lying calmly.
As for Li Shiyu … the reason her father gave her so that she could enter 250 Ace Mecha Clan was now her trump card. Ling Lan even wondered if her father had already prepared everything for her from the start. Did he want to see if she would use him?
If this was her father's test, then she would let her father know that she was not a hopeless person who could not be helped up.
Soon, Ling Lan brought Li Lanfeng and Li Shiyu into the meeting room. Along the way, Ling Lan told them her guess and the purpose of the other party's visit. The two of them were prepared so they walked into the meeting room energetically.
When the people from the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee saw Ling Lan bringing two majors in, they were unhappy. Ling Lan ignored them and sat on the chairman's seat. Li Lanfeng and Li Shiyu also sat beside Ling Lan. Since the other party came with bad intentions, they didn't need to be polite to them.
After Ling Lan boldly expressed her identity as the master of this place, she gestured for the other party to sit down and talk. Other than the experienced senior colonel who was still smiling, the other people more or less showed a hint of anger. This was especially so for the major whose face was contorted.
Li Lanfeng glanced at them. He knew who was the most difficult person to deal with. He took a deep breath and focused himself. He had to fight this battle well for himself and for Ling Lan.
Li Shiyu closed his eyes. Before his regiment commander threw him out, he was just a bystander. He wouldn't participate in the battle.
"Regiment Commander Ling, you're really busy. You made us wait for a long time." Before Ling Lan could say anything, the youngest major jumped out and said sarcastically.
"Of course. Our regiment commander is a regiment commander. He is much busier than a major like me who doesn't have any power." Li Lanfeng smiled as he replied. He seemed to be mocking himself but there was a hidden meaning behind his words. The major almost fainted from anger.
'Useless fellow!' The senior colonel scolded his subordinate for being useless in his heart. However, he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and nodded. "That's true. Major Ling is young and capable. You're able to become a regiment commander at such a young age. You must be a talent that General Ling likes. Your future is limitless."
Ling Lan looked down and didn't reply. This made the senior colonel feel awkward as if he was singing a one-man show. He couldn't help but curse the other party for being sly.
He had dug a hole for himself. No matter how the other party replied, he would be able to continue asking questions. Now that the other party didn't say anything, he couldn't continue asking. Even though the senior colonel was full of confidence, he still couldn't help but feel a little dejected at this point.
The entire conference room fell silent. Ling Lan and the other two were going to deal with whatever came their way, so they wouldn't take the initiative to speak and give the other party a chance. Thus, they calmly drank the tea that Lin Zhong-qing brought over. The people from the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee gritted their teeth in anger when they saw how calm Lin Zhong-qing was.
If they wanted to break through the other party's defenses, they had to make the other party panic and lose his confidence! Waiting wasn't a solution. They knew that they didn't have much time. If they couldn't find evidence within the time limit, they would have to return empty-handed. Just as Ling Lan expected, they only had a few people's testimonies. They didn't have any evidence and the number of testimonies wasn't enough for them to file a case …
Thinking of this, the senior colonel sighed in his heart. There were clearly a lot of people in the base, but in the end, there were less than 10 people who were willing to expose the atrocities committed by their regiment commander. As for the others, no matter how much they tried to persuade them, they still couldn't get them to open their mouths. He couldn't help but admire the young regiment commander's methods. He was able to make his subordinates not dare to say anything in such a short period of time.
However, the more this was the case, the more he wanted to dig out the other party's mask. He couldn't let this kind of thug get into a high position. If he did, more soldiers would suffer. The senior colonel's eyes lit up. He had a strong fighting spirit. This was the reason why the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee existed, right?
The senior colonel threw a look at one of his confidants. Then, a lieutenant colonel beside the senior colonel said with a cold expression, "Regiment Commander Ling, we've checked your file. You're a new recruit who joined the division this year. You're still a few days away from your first year. Please explain, how did you get promoted from a new recruit to a regiment commander?"
Ling Lan looked up. She smiled and said, "I think the reason was written clearly on the file. Didn't you see it?"
The lieutenant colonel shouted, "Ling Lan, please correct your attitude. I'm asking you a question. You have to answer it."
Ling Lan raised her eyebrows. She was confused. "Senior colonel, are you here to ask me? Or are you here to interrogate me? "
Are you trying to scare me? Ling Lan had a lot of guts. Otherwise, she wouldn't have caused so much trouble, giving her father a headache and making him have to clean up the mess. Ling Lan knew herself very well. She was indeed not an obedient child.
