Bai Shuang's mother died early, and her father was dead. Among her relatives in the country, only her uncle Bai Jiancheng and uncle Bai Changhui were the closest.
Her cousin Bai Yueran walked over with a bouquet of lilies on behalf of the family and gently placed the lilies on the coffin.
Lowering her head to kiss the coffin, Bai Yueran sobbed, "Sister, I'll take you home."
The military music suddenly began to play, and the majestic military song resounded over the imperial capital international airport.
The world was solemn, the years were long, the clouds were white, and the world was impermanent.
At that moment, a red sun broke through the sky, and the golden sunlight shone on the cherry coffin, giving the bouquet of lilies and the bright red flag a golden edge. It was dazzling.
The solemn atmosphere at the scene was lifted.
Although there were sacrifices, it was precisely because of these sacrifices that they brought us true hope!
Bai Yueran sighed softly and saw Zhao Liangze standing on the right front carrying the coffin.
She didn't know where he had been on a mission in the past few months, but his face looked darker than usual, but also bloodless and pale.
He just stared straight ahead, completely ignoring Bai Yueran who had come to offer flowers.
Bai Yueran thought of what had happened between Bai Shuang and Zhao Liangze and could only sigh.
She silently stepped aside and watched the four tall and burly soldiers of the Special Operations Forces carry the coffin farther and farther away. Just like Zhao Liangze's heart, it was also getting farther and farther away from her.
She knew that they could never go back.
…
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng only got off the plane after all the people at the airport had left.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't show his face, and Gu Nianzhi didn't want to show her face.
Today was Bai Shuang's big day, and no one could steal her limelight.
Gu Nianzhi leaned her head on Huo Shaoheng's shoulder and murmured, "Huo Shao, Bai Shuang … she almost committed suicide …"
If she had said earlier that she had been shot, if she hadn't worn that eye-catching, fiery red dress, the outcome might have been different, right?
The gunshot wound wasn't immediately fatal, but excessive bleeding killed her in a short period of time.
Huo Shaoheng didn't speak, and the lines of his jaw tightened like a fully drawn bow.
He touched her head, turned around, and kissed her on the forehead.
His warm lips touched Gu Nianzhi's slightly cold skin, and Huo Shaoheng paused.
It felt so good that he couldn't bear to let it go.
Thus, his lips slid down from her forehead, past her straight and exquisite nose, to her playful and cute lips, and he kissed them heavily.
Gu Nianzhi's lips were numb from the kiss. She felt dizzy, and her heart was pounding.
It was just a kiss. How could she feel suffocated?
It must be because the weather is too hot and the plane is too stuffy. It must be …
…
It was eight o 'clock in the morning when he got off the plane.
The sun hung high in the sky, stretching for thousands of miles.
Huo Shaoheng's driver took him straight to the compound where the Supreme Military Council was located.
Gu Nianzhi also went with him because General Ji specifically asked her to go with him.
Gu Nianzhi followed Huo Shaoheng into the conference room with the highest level of security in the military compound.
There were seven people in the conference room, including five standing committee members, Speaker Long, and Prime Minister Bai Jiancheng. This was definitely the highest level of leadership in the empire.
To be honest, if a shell were to hit this room at this time, it could wipe out all the elites of the Huaxia Empire. The Huaxia Empire would immediately fall behind by at least 50 years.
Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi walked in, holding the letter from Gu Nianzhi's grandfather, Gu Haoze.
Huo Shaoheng walked to the podium in the conference room first and said with a serious expression, "Chiefs, I am Huo Shaoheng, the commander of the Special Operations Forces, and also the Deputy Secretary-General of the Supreme Military Council. This time, our forces carried out a secret operation codenamed Fox Hunt. The briefing has already been sent to you. "
He had already reported the entire situation to General Ji.
The CIA's famous "Underground Tsar," Li Dexi, had died at the hands of Bai Shuang. There was also a brief description of the genome data of the Huaxia Empire.
Of course, the latter was top-secret information, so it was only briefly mentioned in the briefing.
"What I want to say is that in this operation, Comrade Bai Shuang made the greatest contribution single-handedly. In the end, in order to save all of us, she perished together with Li Dexi. For such a person, I request that her name be recorded in the annals of history and be admired by tens of thousands of people. "
The conference room was quiet. General Ji looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was standing silently on the side. He raised his hand and said, "Nianzhi, that letter is for your family. Read it to everyone."
"Yes, Chief." Gu Nianzhi walked to the podium, and Huo Shaoheng stood to the side with a straight military posture.
Gu Nianzhi opened the letter and began to read her grandfather, Gu Haoze's last words.
"… At this point, my days are numbered. Before I die, I want to record this forgotten battle and record the names of the Huaxia Empire's sons and daughters who rose up to resist in the concentration camp. I hope that future generations will remember their names. "
"Every individual who sacrificed for the good of the whole is worthy of respect and memory."
"Their names are: He Shouwang, Zhang Aliang, Zhao Tongxin, Wang Qi, Yang Yiqin, Duan Yongbo, Qian Man, Shu Huan, Wei Xiangyun …"
"… I hope that the people who read this letter can proudly tell them that our country's mountains and rivers still exist, and the people are at peace."
Her still crisp voice was a little gloomy because of her low mood, but it better reflected the mood of the person who wrote the letter.
The words "mountains and rivers still exist, and the people are at peace" greatly shocked the already hardened hearts of these big shots.
The five grizzled standing members of the Supreme Military Council all stood up together.
"Attention, salute!"
They saluted in Gu Nianzhi's direction.
Huo Shaoheng also saluted beside Gu Nianzhi.
Bai Jiancheng and Speaker Long were not soldiers, but they also stood up and bowed deeply in Gu Nianzhi's direction.
Of course, they were not saluting and bowing to Gu Nianzhi.
They were saluting the Huaxia Empire's sons and daughters who rose up to resist mentioned in the letter in Gu Nianzhi's hand.
General Ji said in a low voice, "This list must be preserved in our museum so that our future generations will remember it."
Gu Nianzhi nodded solemnly and said, "Although this is my family's letter, the information it carries has long exceeded the scope of my family. There is also a page of data that belongs to the entire Huaxia Empire. I dedicate this letter to the country, and I hope you can keep it well and not let the martyrs in the letter down. "
As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi put the letter back into the envelope and held it with both hands. She walked down from the podium and handed it to General Ji.
General Ji felt that this thin letter was extremely heavy.
They all knew about the concentration camp in the northeast, but they did not expect that there would actually be such a piece of data that could shake the foundation of the entire nation's existence in the world.
"Don't worry. I will let Shaoheng keep this piece of data. The Special Operations Forces have the highest level of security, so it is the most appropriate. " As General Ji spoke, he handed the letter to Huo Shaoheng and reminded him, "The page of data must be kept well and given the highest level of security. Scientists who can access this data must go through the most stringent political review in your department. "
Huo Shaoheng raised his hand to take it and replied in a low voice, "Yes, sir!"
…
After the meeting, Huo Shaoheng was going to leave for the International Special Forces Competition to show his face.
That was actually not his main duty. He had led the team there previously as a cover.
After he left, there was already an official special forces coach in the military to take over the management.
He was only going now to wrap up his own operation.
He would return after taking a photo with everyone at the opening ceremony.
However, Gu Nianzhi was very reluctant to leave. She hugged his waist and refused to let him leave.
Huo Shaoheng was a little helpless. He knew that because of Bai Shuang, Gu Nianzhi was depressed and needed someone to comfort her.
However, he still had a mission to complete, so he couldn't delay too much.
However, seeing how sad Gu Nianzhi was, he couldn't bear to leave immediately.
"Why don't you come with me?" Huo Shaoheng had an idea. "I'll call Speaker Long from the Senate and ask for a leave of absence for you?"
"Really?!" Gu Nianzhi's eyes lit up, and she smiled. "Call quickly! I'll go with you! "
Gu Nianzhi couldn't ask for more than anything to be able to continue to be with Huo Shaoheng.
