Chapter 55: Persistence and Doubt in Hou Mo's Heart

I am no stranger to the members of the investigation team, including Mr. Tan, Professor Chu, and a young recorder with a bit of a face.

Teacher Tan is the leader of the investigation team, looking at me who was injured and had no energy, she first gently cared about my physical condition, and then said: "Don't be nervous, in fact, every student who participates in the exercise will have such an investigation record, which will be counted as an exercise report for archiving, as well as the director's rating of the exercise performance for reference, you seek truth from facts, just tell the truth, don't be too nervous." ”

I nodded and said yes.

Professor Chu was beside him, his eyes slightly squinted, and he was sleepy, as if he was given a pillow and made the bed, and he would be able to fall asleep.

Mr. Tan chatted with me for a while, and then began to get to the point.

She inquired about everything I had done during the exercise, no matter how big or small, and even called up my movement trajectory map for my reference, which seemed very serious.

In fact, during the whole exercise, except for the matter of Master Nanhua, which I need to hide, I didn't have any bad feelings about the rest of the parts, and it was very smooth to talk like this.

Unconsciously, I talked about the accidents that had to be mentioned in this exercise and could not be avoided.

That is, students and staff frequently have accidents and are sucked dry of blood.

I didn't shy away from pointing my head at Shang Liang.

I also took out what Tang Dao told me as circumstantial evidence, but at this time, Mr. Tan had to remind me that Tang Dao did not mention this matter in his exercise records.

Hearing this, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, knowing that the situation might have changed during the time I was asleep.

But even so, I stuck to my guns and didn't change my mind.

This is about my exercise report, and Mr. Tan did not try to convince me, but after a simple reminder, he moved on with the rest of the matter.

With the help of the investigation team, I completed the drill report, which was quite smooth in the early stage, but we still had some disagreements on several key matters in the later stage, including how I killed the Rat King and those people, Mr. Tan also raised several questions.

And my explanation, apparently, did not satisfy her.

But even so, she maintained great tolerance, and when she was almost done, she asked the little brother who made the transcript to show me the whole transcript, and after I confirmed that it was correct, asked me to sign it page by page, and completed the work.

After finishing this, Teacher Tan announced the end and was about to let me leave, but Professor Chu, who had been dozing off, said, "Wait, Xiao Tan, you and Xiao Zhang go out first, and I'll talk to Hou Mo for a few words." ”

Teacher Tan was stunned for a moment, looked at the old rabbit, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay." ”

She left with someone, and in the small room, only Professor Chu and I were left.

I looked at Professor Chu with some confusion, and the other party yawned a long time, and then said, "Actually, all the students' drill reports have been completed, and you are the last one." ”

I didn't know what he was trying to say, and said respectfully, "Well, then what? ”

Professor Chu rubbed his face and said that even if your exercise report does not come out, but from the overall exercise results and the side confirmation of others, you should not be able to run the second place in the exercise; And from the process I just heard, in my case, this second place is a sure thing.

Hearing this result, I have been a little depressed, finally a little more sunshine, and I couldn't help but smile on my face, and said to him: "Thank you Teacher Chu, thank you for organizing ......"

Before I could finish speaking, he raised his hand and interrupted me, saying you wait first, I haven't finished yet.

Yes?

I was shocked for a while, and said what do you mean, is there still a change here?

Professor Chu nodded and said yes, that's why I kept you - what do you think about Shang Liang?

Hearing the name "Shang Liang", my face became a little gloomy.

I took a deep breath and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "My opinion of Shang Liang, I think I have expressed it very clearly just now; And the organization, especially Zhao Lao, the views and attitudes towards him, a closed disciple, are what make me wonder. And I really want to know, what kind of nightkin bloodline Shang Liang is, and in Zhao Lao's opinion, can Shang Liang do those things - have you ever really judged and evaluated these? ”

Hearing my words full of resentment, Professor Chu smiled.

He asked me to finish what I was thinking, and then I said slowly: "There is one thing, you may not know very well because you are in a coma due to your injuries - in this actual combat exercise, there were fifty-seven students who participated in the final exercise, but only twenty-nine survived in the end, that is to say, twenty-eight people, who remained forever in this vast forest plain at the northern foot of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains. ”

Yes?

When I heard this data, I was shocked and said, "How can there be so many?"

Professor Chu smiled bitterly and said, "You didn't expect it, did you? In fact, before this, we actually had expectations, and we also applied for a certain death index, just to rely on this cruel combat drill to pick out real responsible practical talents; But I didn't expect that the attrition rate would reach such a high level - this time in the training camp, all the organizers, including Deputy Director Tian Yingnan, Minister Liu Bin of the Training Department, and Consultant Zhao Peng, and even our training teachers, will be punished by the relevant punishments, demoted and downgraded, and none of them can escape the ......"

I mean, what do you mean by telling me this?

Professor Chu said: "I know that you have resentment in your heart, and the reason why I tell you this is to tell you that all the relevant persons in charge of this accident have been punished, and in doing so, it is also an explanation to all the heroic souls buried here; But I also want to remind you that Shang Liang, he is also a victim of this incident, and what happened to him is even more tragic than you......"

The dead are greater.

I understood what Professor Chu wanted to talk to me about, and I was silent for a long time, and then said, "What do you mean, you want me to change my mind and give up my suspicion of Shang Liang?" ”

Professor Chu said: "This is what everyone means, you should know that such speculation is very insulting for a dead student; And such a thing, whether true or not, is also difficult for the family of the deceased to accept, especially Shang Liang's father, as well as his father's unit, which is still very influential......"

I was silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "If I insist, will the school deny my ranking?" ”

Professor Chu didn't expect that after chatting with me for so long, I would still be so persistent.

He froze for a moment, staring into my eyes.

I looked at him without fear, neither humble nor arrogant, with my own persistence in silence.

After a while, he spoke: "No, but in response to Zhao Peng's question, the school will conduct a test on you to verify whether you have the ability to kill the Rat King, as well as Tang Zhouming and others; And this test, according to the doctor's professional judgment of your injury, will be scheduled in two days - you need to be mentally prepared for this matter. ”

After listening to this, I asked, "Is it a competition with Zhao Lao?" ”

When Professor Chu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, but then he became serious, and said that there is no research on how to assess this matter, but it should be very strict.

I nodded without hesitation and said OK, I got it.

Seeing me like this, Professor Chu knew that I had made up my mind, sighed for a long time, and then said: "Hou Mo, they asked me to talk to you about this matter in the hope that with the relatively harmonious relationship between me and you, you will change your mind, but since you insist on doing so, I have nothing to say......

I stood up, bowed to Professor Chu, and said, "Thank you for your understanding, but there are some things that I must insist on, because I know that sometimes, the truth may be in the hands of a few. ”

Professor Chu shook his head and said Hou Mo, although you will suffer a lot in the future with such a temper, from my personal point of view, I still admire your behavior.

He walked up to me, shook my hand, and said good luck.

After talking with Professor Chu, I went back to the ward and saw Li An'an, Ma Sifan, Kong Xiangfei, and Dong Hongfei all gathered here.

When the big guys saw me coming in, they all came forward to greet me, and Bai Xiaosheng Ma Sifan clapped his hands and said excitedly: "Come on, come on, congratulations on the third runner-up of our exercise, classmate Hou Mo......"

Everyone applauded, the atmosphere was lively, and I was the only one who looked silent and smiled bitterly.

Ma Yiao was the first to see that my mood was wrong, stopped everyone, and then asked me, "Houzi, what's wrong with you?" ”

I sighed and said I might have an extra game.

Yes?

Everyone was shocked and asked me why, I answered truthfully, and when I heard this, everyone didn't understand a little, but it was not good to say anything, only encouragement and comfort me.

Ma Sifan raised his hand and said Wait a minute, I'll inquire about the situation.

Ma Sifan left, and the big guy was afraid of delaying our rest, so after chatting a few more words, he also got up and said goodbye.

Li An'an was the last to leave, she looked at me, bit her lip, and then asked me, "Do you want me to go to Li Hongjun and ask him to find someone to help you ask?" ”

I shook my head and said it was fine.

After everyone had left, Ma Yiao walked up to me and asked me, "What's the matter with you?" Why do you have to be so stubborn? ”

I stared at Ma Yiao, and after a long time, I said slowly: "I suspect, Shang Liang, is not dead at all." ”
