Chapter 1401: Without My Permission, No One Is Allowed to Approach This Vehicle on Their Own

~4 min read 772 words

Ma Wuliang felt that the regiment commander had entrusted his sister-in-law's safety to him, which was a sign of trust, and he replied solemnly, "Yes."

Fu Yan Cheng, along with Shen Kaiyuan and two company commanders from his own regiment, began searching these rooms; the first two rooms contained nothing but some dry straw spread on the floor.

In the last room, upon entering, they found the floor covered in dirt, and the room reeked of urine, a very pungent smell.

Besides some rotten wood debris, there was nothing else in this room, which made Fu Yan Cheng frown directly.

His heart grew half cold; it seemed most likely that someone was playing a prank from the shadows, and now only the inner partition remained unsearched.

He signaled the two behind him to stand guard and not follow, then holding his issued pistol with high concentration of spiritual energy, he slowly approached that partition, fearing enemy agents might be up to something, such as planting a time bomb or the like.

After a series of gestures, once he saw the situation inside and confirmed there was no danger, he gave hand signals to the two standing guard behind.

They quickly followed up, and just as they were about to ask something, they saw that the area in the inner partition blocked by a wall was piled high with boxes of various sizes.

Fu Yan Cheng's voice carried excitement: "Stand guard."

He holstered his pistol, took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on, then drew a dagger from his person, and only then stepped forward to open the box closest to him.

The moment the box was opened, all three widened their eyes simultaneously; inside were all golden, gleaming large yellow fish.

The two behind took quite a while to recover.

Yet even so, though their hearts itched, the two gritted their teeth and did not voice the doubts in their minds.

After Fu Yan Cheng opened several boxes in succession and confirmed it was not a prank, he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After the three busied themselves for quite a while and confirmed there were no hidden dangers in any of the boxes, Fu Yan Cheng gave the order: "Leave two people outside to stand guard; the rest come in and move the goods."

Having received professional training, even though everyone at the sight of the items in the room gaped with mouths wide open in shock, not a single person spoke to ask, but instead obeyed the order and loaded everything onto the vehicle.

Liu Chuxue watched them load everything onto the vehicle, confirmed that all she had brought out was there, and finally felt relieved.

Once the goods were moved, Fu Yan Cheng dared not delay any longer and directly ordered: "Retreat."

On the way back, Fu Yan Cheng drove the vehicle; if not for considering that Liu Chuxue was in the car, he would have wished the vehicle could fly.

Division Commander Guan was waiting anxiously at the headquarters; because he could not determine if it was true or false, he had not reported to higher authorities immediately, but was only waiting for news from Fu Yan Cheng and the others.

For the countless time, as he looked toward the outside of the army gate, he finally saw the vehicle that Fu Yan Cheng and the others had driven when they left.

Liu Chuxue had already been told by Fu Yan Cheng to return home and rest earlier when they reached the entrance to the family compound; after all, his wife was heavily pregnant and had been tossed about several times back and forth, and he was truly too worried about her.

Since the thing she wanted to do had been done, it had nothing to do with her from then on, so naturally she raised no objection.

As soon as Fu Yan Cheng's vehicle stopped, Division Commander Guan had already arrived downstairs: "How is it?"

The vehicle's cargo bed was covered with a canvas tarp, so the situation inside could not be seen.

Fu Yan Cheng nodded to him: "Everything has been brought back, and the quantity and value are very considerable."

Upon receiving a definite reply from Division Commander Guan, he said: "Drive the vehicle directly to the combat readiness warehouse; without my permission, no one is allowed to approach this vehicle on their own."

After speaking, he turned and headed upstairs to the office.

After making several phone calls, in less than half an hour, quite a number of relevant personnel were seated in the division headquarters office.
