She opened the folder and saw a picture of a young woman in an old-fashioned military uniform. She was very familiar with the picture. This was … her mother. Even though she had only been with her for less than four years, she would always remember the gentle look on her face when she told her stories.
Even after a lifetime, it was still so vivid.
The reception room was so quiet that it seemed like no one was there. Even the sound of breathing couldn't be heard.
Chief Cai watched as Ye Chien carefully flipped through the pages. When she flipped to the second page, he said in a low voice, "… The mission back then was indeed a one-way trip. Some people used their positions to collude with the underworld. They opened the country's gates for convenience and profited greatly from it."
"When your mother received the mission, she probably knew that she was doomed. Before she left, she told us that she had a daughter in her hometown. If she didn't come back, we would have to take care of her."
"Back then, we still can't find out who used their positions to open the country's gates and participate in smuggling and drug trafficking. These people are not people we can find out. Dirty linen should not be aired in public. The same goes for the country's dirty linen. Most of them were executed in secret. "
That was the era when everything was starting to emerge. Some people couldn't keep their conscience. They couldn't resist the temptation of money and started to violate their original vows. Step by step, they committed crimes.
"Look at what your mother's comrade said. He said that before your mother sacrificed herself, she shouted a person's name in her hometown's dialect. Then she was ambushed and shot in the chest. She died on the spot."
"This is what she sacrificed …" Chief Cai suddenly stopped talking. He quietly took out a brown envelope from another pocket of his briefcase. He gently placed it on the coffee table and slowly pushed it in front of Ye Chien. "… Ye Chien, take a look."
Ye Chien's outstretched hand seemed to realize what was inside. She suddenly retracted her hand. She glanced at Chief Cai, whose expression was dark. Ye Chien's outstretched hand clenched into a fist. When she released it, she seemed to have made a decision. She quickly picked up the envelope.
There was a picture inside. Even after more than ten years, the colors were still so bright. It was a bright red national flag with some blue leaves. Under the national flag lay … Ye Chien's eyes were already glistening with tears. Her lips moved. "… This is the picture of my mother when she sacrificed herself, right? She's the one lying under the flag, right? "
"Yes, child. The one lying under the flag is Martyr Sun Xueqing. This is a photo of her after she sacrificed herself."
Chief Cai's voice was filled with sorrow. After more than ten years, when he mentioned his comrade who had once saved his life, the mention of her sacrifice still made him sad from the bottom of his heart.
Tears slowly rolled out of her eyes, drop by drop. Ye Jian stared at the photo and sobbed in a low voice.
The entire flag covered her mother from head to toe. She could only vaguely see the outline of her mother's body. She couldn't see her mother's face or body, but she could see … the red flag was stained with blood.
"Before Martyr Sun Xueqing was sacrificed, one of her comrades said that she once shouted something in her hometown dialect. It was very short, and it felt like she was shouting someone's name. Unfortunately, there was a lot of gunfire at the time, so he wasn't able to tell what your mother said."
"Look at the second photo … the second photo is a little gory. It's a combat dagger stained with blood. Later, when the fabric on the dagger was extracted, it was found to be tissue from a human eye."
"In other words, before your mother sacrificed herself, she used this combat dagger to stab a criminal in the eye."
