Not all hard work will pay off, and the desired outcome is likely to be illusory.

Xinyan didn't know how to describe Lu Dao's mood at the moment. She could only sigh as she picked up the man's body from the ground, stepped over the scattered wreckage of the helicopter, and walked towards the truck that had already driven not far away and was waiting for her.

Finding a suitable place to bury him was the only thing he could do.

New Guiyang Base City, Office of the Commander of the 505 Group Army.

Su Hao put himself in an elegant high-backed chair, across the desk, and calmly looked at a middle-aged colonel sitting opposite.

I'm afraid I won't be able to find a poorer office than this room. Not to mention the small area, the furniture is also very simple. As for the chair that Su Hao was sitting on, it was specially brought back by the Yellow River from the abandoned city and used as a signboard for his identity. To paraphrase his exact words: "I have never seen a commander of an army as poor as you." People who don't know the way come in, thinking that they have come to the scrap yard through the wrong door. ”

Life must be full of fun.

And the ingredients represented by the word "taste" are not necessarily the life given by luxury. But the necessities of life are indispensable, especially some important items.

With his arm on the table, he held a silver ear gouge in his hand and slowly flicked it into his ear. Whenever the small silver spoon came into contact with the inside of the ear, producing the pleasure of relieving itching, Su Hao would close his eyes slightly, immersed in the chaotic world of self-amusement, and even faintly some pleasure.

It was the first time he discovered that digging out earwax was such a happy thing, and the pleasure and satisfaction brought to the body were no weaker than the love between men and women.

Although, it looks dirty and perverted.

This smiling face, in the eyes of the colonel across the table, had a completely different reaction.

His face was gloomy, and he stared at Su Hao with a gloomy gaze, releasing an angry gaze.

"General Su, please pay attention to your attitude."

The colonel leaned forward, tapped the table hard with his knuckles, and shouted in a suddenly raised voice: "I am talking to you on behalf of the Supreme Military Judge Advocate General's Office of the Military Department, please be respectful." ”

The words "Supreme Military Judicial Tribunal" do have an unimaginable deterrent effect on military personnel. That means that you can be sentenced without trial, that the arrested person will be shot without any chance to defend himself, and that you may suddenly be stripped of all your rights, stripped of your military uniform, and thrown directly into prison when your mind is still confused.

Chen Shang's head was on the table in the office of the commander of the 19U Army. That bloody picture made everyone who saw it remember deeply. Army Group 19U is now in chaos, and although the military department has not yet decided on a specific person to be the new commander, many people who believe that they are capable of holding the post are doing so in various ways, both privately and publicly. That kind of surging mood has a very peacetime flavor of the US election. It's nothing more than splashing dirty water on each other, revealing each other's scars, and exposing each other's buttocks that haven't wiped their shit clean, and their own faces with a lot of makeup applied to the public at the same time. Compare to see who is more beautiful? See who is more liked by others?

Sending money and gifts to bribe superiors is only the most basic method. Sending one's wife or daughter to the decision-maker's bed is the real clever one. Of course, there are more dirty, nasty, mean, and shameless ways. At this critical moment when positions and status are determined, people no longer pay attention to the damn dignity and personality. In a word———— as long as Lao Tzu goes up, you will always be trampled under Lao Tzu's feet. When the time comes, everything you pay will be recovered, and you can get a lot of interest.

This is the dark side.

On the bright side, of course, there are also people who want to obtain opportunities and benefits from it through legitimate means.

The method is also very simple———— as long as you find out the most important suspect in the case, Li Xinyan, and send it to the military justice department, so that the military bigwigs above can see their abilities and achievements, it is enough.

Many people have this kind of thought, and the colonel in front of Su Hao is one of them.

The impact of Chen Shang's death was very great, very bad. The reason why the military department is outraged by this is not just the incident itself. In the eyes of Sun Zhan and other members of the military department, Xinyan really made a very terrible head, and it is not an exaggeration to use the metaphor of releasing the demons in the "Pandora's box".

The turbulent situation, the stalemate in the war, and the rampant corruption of all kinds within the armed forces have made the dissatisfaction of the officers and men at the lower levels more and more intense. Xinyan's killing of Chen Shang has been spreading information along with the internal personnel of the 19U Group Army. Many people know that the murder of Lu Dao happened, but they don't think it's Xinyan's fault, but attribute all the problems to Chen Shang, who is dead. It is true that the inside story of the case may never be made public, and the speculators who do not know what is going on just subconsciously think that it is Chen Shang's problem. Because he is a general and the commander of the group army, Xinyan is just a female captain. As long as something goes wrong, people always think that the official has a wrong attitude in the first place, and there is something wrong with him.

The imagination matches the facts strikingly, and it doesn't matter whether the case is public or not. The disappointment of lower-ranking officers and soldiers in the military department is not a day or two. If this continues, I am afraid that it will turn into a large-scale mutiny on the scale of the whole army.

The people below are anti-human, and the people above are always afraid.

In embellished terms, it's called an "uprising."

In fact, it's riots.

There are a lot of "investigators" in the 505 Army. The colonel is just one of them. Their goal is very clear: to use Su Hao as a breakthrough to find the murderer Li Xinyan.

"Hehe, tell me, why am I disrespectful to you?"

Su Hao smiled, picked out a thick yellow disgusting earwax from his ear, and flicked it hard with his little fingernail to the wall behind Colonel Lu. Looking at the colonel's suddenly changing face, Su Hao still had a charming smile on his face.

"From the moment you walked into this room, someone moved a chair for you, someone made tea for you, and someone brought paper and a pen according to your request, and made notes next to it. None of this is done by yourself, there are people to do it for you, what else are you not satisfied with? ”

The colonel did not change the almost fixed arrogance on his face at all, and stared at Su Hao coldly, deaf to the sarcastic words. He coughed heavily a few times and said in a commanding tone, "General Su, please cooperate with my work." ”

Su Hao smiled reservedly: "Of course, I am cooperating." You are a member of the Supreme Military Judge Justice, we should all be afraid of you, and we should respect you. ”

Even the colonel, no matter how well he was cultivated, could hardly endure this undisguised ridicule. He tightened his face, secretly cursed Su Hao with the most hateful words, slowly opened his mouth, and asked, "Please tell me, where is Li Xinyan."

Su Hao glanced at him, very crisp, and replied lazily: "I don't know what to do." ”

The colonel stared at Su Hao: "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Su Hao smiled and didn't give in: "Can't you understand what I said?" ”

"Li Xinyan killed the commander of the 19U Army, she killed a general"

The colonel did not pay attention to the accompanying officers who were recording the conversation next to him. He moved his chair forward, getting closer to Su Hao, and his voice became deeper and deeper: "I have to warn you that your wife is a murderer, she is more dangerous than you think. The rank and position did not deter her in any way, and her audacity was appalling. Killing people will change from the initial fear and discomfort to another state. She will be addicted to killing people like a drug. One after another, first outsiders, then their own people. When you feel that you should make out with her, she will cut your throat with a knife, pull out your intestines from her stomach, and then put your head on the table like she did with Commander Chen Shang and slowly admire it. ”

"Oh, look at what you said, my scalp is numb and goosebumps are straight all over my body."

Su Hao pretended to be surprised and shrank into a ball, and exclaimed in a very exaggerated tone: "Have you watched too many horror movies?" So much so that the mind is full of such terrible and bloody thoughts? Usually I don't have anything to do and don't look at those things, it's not good for my health. I used to know a person who was scared into impotence by the camera of a female ghost on TV because he watched "Midnight Bell". Since then, he has never straightened up, and then his wife divorced, and his son called him "second mother". Don't follow in his footsteps. ”

The colonel's complexion, which had just improved slightly, froze for a moment, and then showed a flush of ferocious rage. The muscles on his face twitched, and he roared viciously: "General Su, what do you mean?" ”

Su Hao looked at him without smiling: "Is this your attitude towards your superiors?" I'm a major general, and you're only a colonel. ”

"You'd better get things straight———— I'm representing the Supreme Military Judge Advocate General's Office, if you don't want to be implicated by Li Xinyan, you'd better hand her over honestly."

"I don't know where she is."

After a round turn, the problem came back to square one.

This is already the fourth interrogator Su Hao has dealt with since the day before yesterday.

Whether it was the first captain or the colonel in front of them, these people all had a cold and strong momentum. This is perhaps the most obvious characteristic of the Judge Advocate General's Office, but Su Hao does not like it, and even feels disgusted.

"Since you're going to play word games with me, then I can accompany ————"

The colonel's face turned blue for a while, and he squeezed out a sneer: "What do you think you are?" Checkmate? Haha......ha In front of the Supreme Military Judge Advocate General, the word "general" is nothing. With an order from the military department, you have to take off your military uniform and get out of the base city now, which is worse than the leper dog on the street. To tell you the truth, the L96 Army has launched a full-scale manhunt, and your wife will soon be caught. The Supreme Judge Advocate General's Office could have produced a statement signed by her to identify you as the mastermind behind the murder. At that point, what are you...... Not...... What are you interested in? Stop it...... Stop......"

Before the colonel could finish speaking, he suddenly saw a huge fist smashed towards him, completely occupying all his sight.

The colonel felt the bridge of his tall nose break, and the whole person floated up from his seat, leaned back, flipped one hundred and eighty degrees in the air, slammed his knee into the wall behind him, and then fell to the ground.

Intense pain erupted from every corner of the body. They bound the Colonel's body, unable to make any movements, not even struggle. could only scream, let Su Hao pounce over, grabbed his arm, and slammed it backwards in the opposite direction, making a terrifying "click" sound.

"My wife's murder has nothing to do with you?"

"Find out your identity, just a colonel, what kind of prestige do you play in front of Lao Tzu? How old the fuck are you? An idiot like you, who has stayed in the Judge Advocate General's Office all his life and has never even been on the battlefield, dares to roar at Lao Tzu? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu will kill you now, the Supreme Minister of Military Justice won't even let out a fart"

As he spoke, Su Hao pulled out his pistol, aimed it at the back of the colonel's head, and pulled the trigger with a "bang". Suddenly, the room was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and heavy blood.

Anger is anger, and it is certainly impossible to kill people on the spot. Su Hao's anger was just lip service. This shot, he aimed at the colonel's left ear, and the whole ear was blown away, and the skin on the small half of his face was blown open, but it was not fatal.

The sound insulation of the walls was not good, and the loud sound of gunfire reached the corridor outside, and many people rushed in, including members of the guard subordinate to Su Hao, and several officers who came with the colonel to investigate the problem.

In front of everyone's eyes, Su Hao still didn't have the slightest scruples.

He tossed his pistol aside, raised his fist, and slammed it at the colonel. The first punch landed on the side of the cheek. Onlookers saw that the colonel's entire mandible had been completely deflated, and the sound of the bones shattering could be heard in their ears.

The fists were still rising and falling, and the dull crash and cracking of bones made one feel like trembling. Blood was pouring from the nostrils and mouth of the dying colonel, and his eyes were straight. He didn't even have the strength to scream, only his hands and feet twitched involuntarily, and his shoulders and knees were completely shattered, and they couldn't be repaired by medical means.

Su Hao smashed more than a dozen punches in a row, and when he picked up the colonel like rags, there were already a few more obvious pits on the concrete floor, with clearly visible fist marks.

It wasn't until the resentment in his chest was completely vented that Su Hao threw the half-dead colonel away, straightened his slightly messy clothes, raised his hand and pointed to the door, and yelled at the officer who caught the colonel and was rushing around him to administer first aid.

"Get out of the way for Lao Tzu————"

The night is getting deeper.

Su Hao stood on the roof of the headquarters building, staring at the stars twinkling above the horizon in the distance, and smiled slightly.

Huang He stood behind him, still carrying a gun, holding a cigarette in his mouth, muffled out a puff of smoke, and asked very incomprehensibly: "What?" Haven't you had enough fun during the day? Is that funny that guy was crippled by you, and I'm afraid he'll have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life? ”

"What's so funny about that bunch of shit?"

Su Hao tucked the coat draped over his shoulders, and his eyes showed a clear gaze: "I really didn't expect that Xinyan would actually lose a group army commander." Imagine that when I first met her, I was just a little girl who was overly frightened. Right now...... It is no exaggeration to describe it as "murderous". Hehe, of course, this is a joke. ”

"Actually, both of you are brutal."

Huang He made a rare joke, but his facial expression looked serious: "If it weren't for Du Tianhao and them to pass the news, I really thought that your wife planned to lead the rebels to stand on her own." Then again, this kind of thing is almost the same for anyone, Chen Shang's old bastard actually dared to beat your woman's idea. If it were me, it wouldn't be as simple as cutting off the head, at least I should chop him into pieces and feed him to the pigs, which would be in line with the theory of profit maximization. ”

Su Hao raised his head and felt the cold wind blowing on his face. In this cold season, the scenery in the wilderness has become bleak, the view from the rooftops is wide, there is no pollution and exhaust fumes caused by dense population, and the night sky has become exceptionally clear. The starlight in the distance was so bright that it seemed to be within reach.

In a few days, the calendar will turn over for the new year.

That is, the third year after the Black Age.

"What is the current construction progress of Hive One?"

"Everything went well, supplies and raw materials were plentiful. The excavation construction in the underground area has entered the third phase. The camouflage of the outer perimeter is also very good. To date, no suspicious persons have been found approaching. By the way, Lao Song revised your original emergency defense plan. He sent five hundred guards around the alert area, and these people carried the alpha gene potion with them. When encountering unexpected situations that cannot be solved, you can become an evolved person in a short period of time. Three emergency evacuation routes have been prepared, all of which lead to foreign countries and are very safe.

"What about the people who sent out the Lun to carry out the proliferation plan? To what extent is the de facto control zone? ”

"As far as the feedback is concerned, the plan is quite smooth. But there are no precise boundaries in the area of de facto control. There are so many displaced people entering the surrounding area that we can't keep accurate statistics. They may settle anywhere, or for some special reason, they may constantly move and look for new settlements. However, judging from the current situation, the situation around Kunming is quite stable. With Wu Guoguang and Li Daoyuan over there, civilians were easily attracted by the army. ”

A glimmer of light flashed in Su Hao's eyes, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He also has one of the most important and important questions.

"Where is the assimilation of those refugees outside the city?"

"The blood injection rate has reached about 75 percent."

Huang He flicked the cigarette ash, and looked around for a moment very vigilantly, making sure that there was no suspicious signal, and then he took a few steps forward and approached Su Hao's ear: "The military commander of the new division regiment is much more conscientious than we imagined. Both the recruitment of new recruits and the speed of training are faster than expected. The materials transported from the Northern Theater and the Xi'an base have exceeded the normal establishment requirements by six times. Even when I look at those things, I feel red-eyed. I think in the beginning, we didn't even have a single grain supply. Now, these damn guys want whatever they want. Hehe, that's the benefit of having someone on it to help the cover."
