Yin Shixiong had tried many methods in the past three days. He was just short of barging in with a gun, but the Deputy Chief wouldn't let him in no matter what. He said he was worried about "leaking information."
But without the support and information from the Special Forces' Central Control Room, how could he save anyone?!
He couldn't even confirm the coordinates of the satellite navigation system!
Yin Shixiong panicked and made countless reports to Huo Guanchen and General Ji, but the two of them told him not to worry. They even said it didn't matter if they waited for another two days. After the results of the election were announced, the Special Forces would retreat and he, Yin Shixiong, would be able to use the Central Control Room.
Yin Shixiong was so anxious that a few strands of his hair turned white, but there was nothing he could do. He even called He Zhichu, who wanted to ask if there was any news from them.
When he heard that Huo Shaoheng still didn't know about it, He Zhichu hung up without a word. He called again, but it didn't go through.
Yin Shixiong guessed that He Zhichu must have blocked his number.
To be honest, Yin Shixiong understood He Zhichu very well.
He wanted nothing more than to block his own number!
He was completely useless!
Poor Nianzhi, he didn't know what she was going through, but he was still running around like a headless fly without a clue.
The Special Operations Forces, which were invincible overseas and rarely suffered a defeat, were constrained domestically to the point where their hands and feet were tied.
He deeply understood that without Huo Shao, the Special Forces was not the Special Forces he was familiar with.
Yin Shixiong, who had been waiting impatiently for the past three days, saw Ma Qiqi's number jumping on his phone and answered without hesitation. He used his Bluetooth headset to start the call.
"Qiqi, is there any news?" Yin Shixiong, who was in the middle of his morning exercise, stopped jogging and slowed down on the tree-lined path.
He didn't want his anxious mood to scare Ma Qiqi.
However, Ma Qiqi scared him the moment she spoke.
She screamed, "News?! I've been talking to you for so long! Why aren't you saving Nianzhi?! It's been three days! It's been three days! Nianzhi has been electrocuted! It's so tragic! So scary! Ahhh —! I can't take it anymore! Let me scream for a while more! "
"What electric shock?!" Yin Shixiong's face turned pale. The 1.8-meter-tall man staggered to a stop and trembled on the tree-lined path. He held onto the tree trunk and asked in a trembling voice, "Speak clearly! Is there more news?! "
"I'll forward the video to you! See for yourself! " Ma Qiqi hurriedly saved the instant video and sent it to Yin Shixiong via text.
Yin Shixiong received it very quickly and clicked play.
The Bluetooth headset was instantly filled with Gu Nianzhi's screams, and each sound had an extraordinary amplification effect in the headset.
The image on the phone wasn't very clear. The phone model seemed to be very old, so the resolution wasn't very high. It was also a little shaky, but it made Gu Nianzhi's swollen face look even more frightening.
Yin Shixiong's body swayed, and he fell to the ground on his butt. A man like him found himself crying under the morning sun of October in the imperial capital.
The members of the base looked at him in surprise. "What's wrong with Lieutenant Colonel Yin?"
"I'm so sad … Did something happen at home?"
A few people who knew him came over to comfort him. "Lieutenant Colonel Yin, let us send you back?"
Yin Shixiong wiped his tears and pushed away the people surrounding him to stand up and run.
He used all the strength in his body to run like the wind and return to Huo Shaoheng's official residence much faster than usual. He immediately changed into his uniform and got into the car with the keys. With a loud bang, he stepped on the accelerator and shot out like an arrow leaving a bow.
He couldn't wait any longer. He had to report to General Ji and General Huo and request that Huo Shao be notified immediately!
He knew that Huo Shao's private plane was about to arrive at the imperial capital's international airport!
Yin Shixiong first drove to the military headquarters compound where General Ji lived. However, when he arrived at the door, he was told that General Ji had already left to attend the new Prime Minister Tan Dongbang's first televised speech at the Senate.
He left without another word to find Huo Shaoheng's father, Huo Guanchen.
Other than General Ji, only General Huo could make the decision on this matter.
Huo Guanchen happened to be at home and saw the sweaty Yin Shixiong. He couldn't help but frown and scold him. "What are you doing? Where's your military discipline? Did you eat all that?! "
Yin Shixiong was so anxious he couldn't breathe. He could only show his phone to Huo Guanchen and said, "Sir … Chief … I hope you can agree to let me inform Huo Shao immediately! Nianzhi is already in danger! "As he spoke, he played the video Ma Qiqi had just sent him.
Huo Guanchen frowned as he finished watching the video. He looked up at Yin Shixiong and asked in a low voice, "Where did this video come from?"
"Someone sent it to me."
"You believed it just because someone sent it to you? What if it's a trap? Did you verify the authenticity of the video? "Huo Guanchen's voice grew sterner." Look at you. You believed it right away, didn't you? How could you not know that this is the enemy's plot?! Lieutenant Colonel Yin, you're Shaoheng's personal secretary! You're not Gu Nianzhi's father! You're not going to amount to anything if you're so flustered over such a small matter! "
Yin Shixiong was scolded by Huo Guanchen and was about to defend himself when Huo Guanchen changed his tone. "Ok, I understand now. I'll tell Shaoheng when he comes back. But remember, you're not allowed to say anything today! Today is the new Prime Minister's big day. Shaoheng will be attending the Senate's first televised speech as soon as he gets off the plane. If you dare say a word, you'll be punished according to military law! " As he spoke, he called an orderly over and instructed, "Follow Lieutenant Colonel Yin and ensure his safety."
Huo Guanchen knew very well what Huo Shaoheng would do if he saw the video. So he couldn't let him see it at this critical juncture …
"Yes, Chief!" The orderly saluted and followed Yin Shixiong closely.
Yin Shixiong's eyes were bloodshot. He panted heavily as he looked at Huo Guanchen, but Huo Guanchen's cold gaze sent a chill down his spine.
He closed his eyes and saluted Huo Guanchen. "Yes, Chief! Obey orders! Obey orders! "He then said," Chief, my phone … "
Huo Guanchen finally nodded but didn't return the phone. He only said, "Shaoheng's private plane is about to arrive. How are the security measures at the airport? You're his personal secretary. At this time, you should be in charge of the security at the airport. "
They sent him to Huo Shaoheng's side and didn't allow him to say a word to Huo Shaoheng. They didn't even return his phone. They were forcing him to take a stand!
With another orderly following him, Yin Shixiong knew he couldn't act rashly.
He had to spread the news, but he wouldn't put himself in danger.
If he put himself in danger, there would be one less person who could save Nianzhi.
The members of the Special Operations Forces weren't inflexible, but they were flexible and wouldn't break the relevant laws or challenge the established rules.
Yin Shixiong left the courtyard of the military headquarters with a solemn expression. He let the orderly drive while he sat in the back seat and called Ma Qiqi.
"Qiqi? I'm Brother Xiong. "Yin Shixiong deliberately spoke slowly, but Ma Qiqi still thought it was strange.
"Brother Xiong, can we talk properly?" Her voice was still choked with sobs from crying. At that moment, she was applying two wet tea bags to her red and swollen eyes.
"Haha, I'm talking properly." Yin Shixiong chuckled and said, "Qiqi, I can't help you with what you just said."
"What?!" Ma Qiqi stood up immediately. "Brother Xiong! I didn't expect you to be so heartless! "
"It's not that I'm heartless." Yin Shixiong spoke to her through his Bluetooth headset and said calmly, "It's just that there are priorities. Huo Shao is about to return to the Empire. I'm going to the airport to pick him up now."
"Oh? It's Huo Shao?! Nianzhi's boyfriend?! "Ma Qiqi suddenly became nervous." He's back?! That's great! Tell him! "
However, Yin Shixiong didn't seem to hear what she said and continued, "Um, I need to be in charge of airport security. Huo Shao's plane will land in an hour. I'm at the entrance to the VIP area of Flight T3. Yes, sorry, I'm at that entrance. It's easy to see." He hung up.
Ma Qiqi was baffled and secretly cursed Yin Shixiong for being unreliable. If she kept relying on him at a time like this, Nianzhi would probably turn to dust …
She felt her heart palpitate and fidget when she thought about the situation in the video she had just seen.
In a moment of frustration, she turned on the TV in the living room as a backdrop and wandered around the living room, thinking of who else she could ask for help.
Just then, the melodious sound of a violin came from the TV. Ma Qiqi glanced at it and saw that the TV was broadcasting a documentary about the new Prime Minister, Tan Dongbang's family. She couldn't help but pout. She thought to herself that this TV station was really quick to suck up to the people. They had been slandering the Tan family before, but the election had just ended yesterday, and today the wind had already turned.
However, she didn't want to watch the Tan family, so she impatiently took the remote control and changed the channel.
She didn't expect the same documentary to be playing on the other channel.
Ma Qiqi wasn't satisfied and changed the channel again, but it was still a documentary about the Tan family.
She changed all the channels within a minute, and every channel was actually showing the documentary about the new Prime Minister's family! Recording! Film!
This was like the Spring Festival Gala!
Was this forced brainwashing?!
Ma Qiqi snorted and threw the remote control away. She hugged her little pillow as she sat on the sofa, still thinking about Yin Shixiong's strange words. She felt like she had missed out on some incredible news …
On the TV, they were introducing the new Prime Minister, Tan Dongbang's only daughter, Tan Guiren. They praised her as a flower, saying that she was talented and beautiful, a musical prodigy, and that she had held a solo concert at the Carnegie Mellon Golden Music Hall in America at the age of fifteen. This made Ma Qiqi even more annoyed and she rolled her eyes countless times. Just as she was about to turn off the TV, the image suddenly changed to a short video of Tan Guiren boarding a plane in America.
It was obviously recorded when she boarded the plane ten hours ago. The narrator's voice was very gentle. "… Major General Huo Shaoheng, Deputy Secretary General of the Military Supreme Council, personally took a private plane to America to welcome Miss Tan Guiren back. The plane is about to land at Terminal T3 of the Imperial Capital International Airport. Let's connect with our colleagues at Terminal T3 to see what's going on there."
