1970, A Bit Sweet

He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.

Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 310 Persuading, Catching

310

Qian Miaomiao got agitated again without saying a word.

However, Huo Yingjie was still quite touched that Qian Miaomiao was doing this for him, her boss.

“You all continue to work under the new leader, and the achievements you make will still be yours,” Huo Yingjie said. “As for your boss, I’ll have plenty of opportunities to make contributions in the future!”

"Waaaaah..." Qian Miaomiao cried in anger, "It's not fair! Why is this happening! That was your proposal, and they just took it away like that."

Tang Xinliang was also indignant and felt that this should not be done.

"Alright, stop crying." Huo Yingjie took out a handkerchief, which only He Tiantian had ever used besides his own.

Now that Qian Miaomiao is protecting him, her boss, let's lend it to her for a while.

Qian Miaomiao took it, wiped away her tears, and choked out, "I don't want to participate in this project anymore!"

“Me too!” Tang Xinliang said. “If they want to take the fruits of our labor, then let them take them. It’s too unfair that we did the work and they take it all.”

Huo Yingjie smiled; it was truly a rare sight.

“Alright, I’m telling you this today, and I hope you can keep it a secret,” Huo Yingjie said. “We’re not doing this for any one person, but for the country. The sooner this project is completed and the sooner the army is armed, the fewer casualties our soldiers will suffer! I hope you will act for the greater good, not for our small group.”

"But..." Qian Miaomiao trailed off, "But we..."

“Miaomiao, Xinliang, you only need to hear me once. We are doing this for those soldiers, remember that,” Huo Yingjie said. “Remember our mission. We are still young, we have plenty of opportunities. Let them take what they want, I don’t care. As participants in the project, your continued involvement can speed up the project’s progress.”

Tang Xinliang nodded and said, "Boss, I understand. We are doing this to reduce soldier casualties, and we are doing this for the country."

“Boss, I agree too,” Qian Miaomiao said. “We’ll start working tomorrow.”

Huo Yingjie nodded and said, "That's right. Let Zhou Yuanchao rest well, and tell him that this is my decision. If he is feeling better and someone calls him, let him go."

“Okay!” Qian Miaomiao and Tang Xinliang replied.

When the two of them left Huo Yingjie's place, their eyes were red.

Huo Yingjie didn't tell them the specifics because he worried they were young and naive and might leak the secret. He planned to apologize to his subordinates after catching the spy.

Chief Engineer Sun quickly assembled a new project team, and with the help of Tang Xinliang and Qian Miaomiao, the experiment was quickly launched.

Almost everyone in the entire research institute knows about this!

That person naturally knew too!

Huo Yingjie's current imprisonment proves that the organization no longer trusts him and he poses no threat for the time being. If they do something else later to frame Huo Yingjie, he will never be able to recover.

The most important thing now is the safe in Huo Yingjie's office.

The newly formed project team was able to work normally in a short period of time thanks to the information in the safe, and I heard the results are quite good. We should have results in another month.

Such powerful equipment should not be used to arm the Chinese army, otherwise it would become a major threat.

Since that's the case, the only option left is to steal the documents from the safe.

If those data are destroyed, the project will be indefinitely stalled.

Without hesitation, this person took advantage of his position to frequently enter and exit the office area.

They soon obtained the key to Huo Yingjie's office.

Once you're inside the office, getting that safe won't be a problem!

And so, on a dark and windy night, all was quiet and still.

Taking advantage of his shift, he easily approached Huo Yingjie's office, opened the door, and, holding a small flashlight, walked to the vicinity of the safe.

When his hand touched the safe, the little tortoise connected to the safe already noticed.

"Master, Master, someone has broken into the safe!" Little Turtle shouted, waking Huo Yingjie who was sleeping.

Huo Yingjie was fast asleep when he heard this and immediately sat up.

When the little tortoise saw its owner wake up, it transmitted the image of the area within one meter of the safe into Huo Yingjie's mind.

Huo Yingjie frowned; that back view looked familiar!

However, he could only see the person's back at the moment, and the front was blocked by the safe, so he couldn't see the face and wasn't sure!

This safe has become a true safe; no one but him and Little Turtle can open it!

Sure enough, the man took out the tools he had prepared beforehand and began trying to open the safe, but he failed several times.

The man glanced at the time on his wrist; there were only two minutes left until the next patrol. He decided to try one more time!

Still can't open it!

To avoid being discovered, that person chose to leave and will continue the night after tomorrow!

He hadn't realized that the safe was bait in a large net, just waiting for the fish to fall into it.

Huo Yingjie's office is monitored 24 hours a day with binoculars.

"If only I could know what he's thinking," Huo Yingjie muttered to himself. That way, he could find out if this person was still online or offline within the research institute.

He hoped for a stable environment at the research institute, not just externally, but also internally.

The presence of spies is more destructive than external pressure.

At the same time, Huo Yingjie was also worried that this person was using a counter-espionage plot to frame good people in the research institute and cover up his accomplices.

This would mislead the sensitive Director Hua.

In times of crisis, it's better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free.

Upon hearing this, the little tortoise's eyes lit up, and it said, "That's touching that safe; I can read its memories..."

"Then hurry up!" Huo Yingjie exclaimed joyfully, "Read all his memories, every single one..."

At this moment, Huo Yingjie didn't even have time to ask how the little spinning turtle possessed such supernatural powers!

In just a few seconds, the little tortoise had already read that person's memories.

"Alright!" said the little tortoise. "I'll transmit it to my master in a bit."

"That's great!" Huo Yingjie was overjoyed. The little tortoise was so helpful, giving him unexpected assistance. Was this God's reward for the countless good deeds he had done in his previous life?

Just then, the person turned and left, and Huo Yingjie finally saw the person's face clearly!

It was him!

I guessed right, it was him!

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Huo Yingjie wouldn't have believed that this person was a spy and traitor!

The man quietly opened the door and went into the corridor. He straightened up, just like when he was on patrol. But when he turned the corner, four soldiers with real guns were walking towards him, their guns pointed at him.

He turned to run, but four people came up behind him and grabbed him.

Realizing he was facing imminent disaster, he chose to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

However, they were a bit slow; one of the soldiers dislocated the man's jaw. (To be continued.)
