Chapter 110

"You are that Li Ang?"

Hearing his own name, Li Ang, who was wrapped in a large amount of bandages on his hands and shoulders and fixed to a hospital bed, turned his head with difficulty and saw an old man with gray hair and muscles between his brows twisted into a "chuan" shape.

"Who are you?"

"You don't need to worry about who I am."

Without answering Li Ang's question, the old man with two guards brought a face like a nail, expressionless:

"You just need to know that you are currently the number one suspect in the Laien blood case and are undergoing investigation."

So... is this person an interrogator from the Secret Investigation Bureau? But shouldn't an interrogator have an assistant? Why bring guards? And they don't seem to be ordinary guards?

Glancing at the two guards behind the old man, and guessing their profession from their upright standing posture and the gun calluses on their hands, Li Ang frowned and turned his head back.

"Hmm?"

Detecting Li Ang's subtle change in expression, the old man's eyes narrowed instantly, staring at Li Ang's side profile like a falcon, and he asked coldly:

"Do you have an opinion about the military?"

Glancing sideways at the old man, Li Ang used his brain to desperately guess his identity while asking back unceremoniously:

"Can't I?"

"Watch your language!"

Sure enough, like the common tropes in countless classic film and television works, after Li Ang provoked the old man who was suspected of having a high status, the two guards behind him, full of reverence, were furious and scolded directly:

"Do you know..."

"Stop!"

Raising his hand to gesture behind him to stop the guards from reporting their own names, the old man's tightly pursed lips actually curled up, and he looked at Li Ang:

"You want to know my identity?"

"I already know."

Although the Black Goat wasn't around to observe the old man's soul state, looking at his expression and tone, Li Ang vaguely felt that the other party seemed to like "capable thorns," so he simply revealed the bottom line:

"There are strange tan lines on the fabric of your chest. Judging by the shape, it's mostly some kind of medal. Although you aren't wearing shoulder straps, there are buckles left for shoulder straps on your clothes;"

"The two guards behind you have calluses on their hands, and they are wearing boots issued to non-commissioned officers, but they are thicker than ordinary non-commissioned officer boots. They are mostly lieutenant-level officers, and they look at most thirty years old;"

"With two thirty-year-old lieutenant-level officers as guards and the qualifications to frequently wear medals, there are only a few people in the entire military, and there is only one who can vaguely have anything to do with me."

Glancing at the old man, who was calm on the surface but had quite satisfied eyes, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief secretly and said without changing his expression:

"Minister of Defense, right?"

"Look! What did I say!"

Seeing Li Ang dismantle his father's identity just by looking twice, the policewoman who was blocked outside the ward couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Everyone said he was very smart! If you want to ask something, you should just ask directly. Why do you have to do this? Oh my, really..."

After complaining to her mother, she was about to rush into the ward when she was pulled back by her arm.

"Don't make trouble!"

After hurriedly stopping her reckless daughter, the middle-aged woman breathed a sigh of relief, then twisted her brows and pinched her waist hard.

"Ouch!"

The policewoman, who was pinched in pain, was unhappy and turned her head, wanting to say something, but noticed her mother's angry eyes.

"Behave yourself! Is the trouble you've caused not big enough?"

Thinking of the scene yesterday when her daughter rushed into her bedroom, dusty and tired, telling her that the suspect in the Laien blood night was innocent and only appeared at the Laien house because she was helping her investigate the rebels, the middle-aged woman was furious and gave the policewoman another hard pinch on the thigh!

"It hurts!"

"It's better if it hurts you to death!"

After dragging her troublesome daughter away from the ward door to prevent her from making trouble, the middle-aged woman scolded her angrily:

"Do you know how much risk your father took this time to clean up your mess?"

"Very, very big..."

"And you even let your father go to the Princess, saying something about taking the opportunity to suppress the old nobles. Can you just get involved in such a big thing? Don't you want your life!"

"Want, want, want..."

"Also! What is your relationship with that person? He is willing to take such a big risk to help you investigate, and he hasn't sold you out yet?"

"Just a friend..."

"Nonsense! What kind of ordinary friend would go to this extent? And I asked people in your Bureau, why do many people say they saw you pulling and tugging?"

"Maybe we were arguing..."

"So what were you arguing about?"

"Just ordinary arguing..."

"Is the stir-fry delicious?"

"It's okay, it's okay..."

"..."

It's okay my ass!

Looking at her daughter, who was tiptoeing to peek into the ward while responding to her absent-mindedly, the middle-aged woman felt rage rise from her heart and pinched her troublesome daughter again.

"Ouch!"

The policewoman, who finally came back to her senses, hurriedly covered her thigh and ran a few steps away, then complained:

"Mom! Why do you always pinch me?"

"You deserve it!"

Listening to the chattering noise of his wife and daughter outside the ward, and the suddenly tightened breathing of the two officers behind him, and looking at Li Ang, whose expression was a bit strange, the old man, whose face couldn't hold it anymore, took a deep breath and ordered the officers behind him:

"Go! Tell them to be quiet!"

"Yes!"

After responding clearly, as the young officer, whose expression was a bit distorted, ran away from the ward, the noise outside finally quieted down, but from time to time, some whispers and one or two muffled groans could still be heard.

"Since you guessed it yourself, I won't cover it up."

Forcibly ignoring the movement outside the ward, the old man, whose figure was slightly hunched but still showed his upright posture when he was young, said seriously:

"I am indeed Miss Miss Yisha's father, and it was I who asked the Princess for a warrant to take you out."

"However, this is not because of Miss Miss Yisha's plea, but because of the need as the Minister of Defense... Tell me, what happened at the Laien house that night?"

What happened that night?

Li Ang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and then replied seriously:

"Something that should have happened long ago happened."

"..."

"Before discussing this good thing that happened too late, I also have some things I want to ask you."

Glancing at the old man's furrowed brows again, Li Ang asked seriously while the two young officers glared at him:

"At noon on the day the Laien family had an accident, I took the same train as your daughter. At that time, she was escorting a rebel. Do you know about the encounter between that rebel and her husband?"

"Miss Miss Yisha told me."

The old man's expression dimmed when he heard this, and he nodded:

"I have invited people from the Secret Investigation Bureau to go to the military to investigate everyone who participated in it. Although a long time has passed and the investigation time will be relatively long, I can give her an explanation in at most one or two months!"

"That's good, but her enemies should all be dead, so I guess she doesn't need your explanation."

After getting the answer he wanted, Li Ang nodded and continued to ask:

"You must have investigated me, right? What about the pension owed to my family?"

"Before you went to the Laien house, Miss Miss Yisha had already given me a list. All the withheld pensions will be supplemented."

When he said this, the old man paused slightly, exhaled slowly, and his figure hunched a little more.

"As for those who were seriously derelict in their duties in the process of issuing pensions, they are also undergoing questioning and investigation by the Secret Investigation Bureau, and it starts with me, the Minister of Defense."

"Before coming to see you, I just underwent the relevant investigation. The reason I didn't wear shoulder straps and medals wasn't to hide my identity, but because I took them off when I underwent the investigation."

"After everyone has undergone the investigation, the punishment for us will be completed one after another within two months. The minimum penalty is a one-year salary deduction, and the maximum penalty is the confiscation of all property and the death penalty. The confiscated property will be used to compensate the martyrs' families whose pensions were withheld..."

"Okay, I have no problem."

After hearing the results of these two matters, looking at the old man's eyes full of pain and regret, Li Ang nodded with slight surprise, and then confessed:
