Chapter 12 Isn't this the self-cultivation of a bandit man?
"That day, Comrade Xiao Chu's move wasn't particularly fast, but Wang Chengjun still couldn't dodge it."
"Although the angle of attack was tricky and the attack was sudden, as a veteran who has trained for more than two years, this is not my level!"
"After Wang Chengjun left the office, I had someone investigate his records after he enlisted in the army."
Commander Jiang smiled, but the smile was too cold, carrying a murderous aura.
That was the fighting spirit forged on the battlefield.
"I never expected that a rat would infiltrate my team, Jiang Laohu's team!"
You don't know until you investigate, and what you find is shocking.
All of Wang Chengjun's military achievements in climbing up the mountain were actually stolen from his teammates.
The final application for platoon leader status listed his battle achievements as having taken over their unit from a comrade named Liu Chenglong.
It was clearly Ryu Seong-ryong who lured the enemy away.
However, the deputy regimental commander's family suppressed the incident, allowing Wang Chengjun to take the credit.
"Xiao Jinli, you are fully responsible for Wang Chengjun's matter."
"You must investigate this thoroughly and there must be no concealment."
Commander Jiang made up his mind; if he was going to do it this time, he would thoroughly root out the corrupt elements.
Who gave them the audacity to cause trouble in his military region?
"We are also secretly investigating Deputy Regiment Commander Li's side to see if he was involved in Wang Chengjun's case, and to what extent."
"yes!"
Xiao Jinli accepted the mission.
"This is Comrade Xiao Chu's application for temporary accommodation. He signed it yesterday."
"Comrade Xiao Chu's father was the first-generation battalion commander of an independent battalion and a veteran comrade with outstanding military achievements."
He investigated Wang Chengjun, so how could he not investigate Chu Lulu?
Six hundred and seventy yuan was no small sum in those days.
Who would have thought that the quirky girl was actually Da Shan's eldest daughter?
When Da Shan was injured and forced to retire, that girl was only six years old, still a tiny little thing.
He drove them to the train station.
Yesterday, when I heard the name Qingshui Village, it sounded familiar, and after doing some research, I suddenly realized why.
"There's this connection?"
Xiao Jinli never expected that Chu Lulu's adoptive father was actually Chu Dashan.
Commander Jiang sighed. Of the brothers who fought alongside him, not many are left.
"Alright, go investigate."
"The application form has been submitted to the logistics department. They need time to conduct a background check, and we should be able to move in this afternoon."
"Once Wang Chengjun's matter is settled, have your sister-in-law cook a feast and invite you and Comrade Xiao Chu to our house for dinner."
As Xiao Jinli emerged from the leader's office, he carried not only a temporary accommodation application form but also Wang Chengjun's investigation file.
The logistics department informed him that afternoon that his application for temporary accommodation had been approved and he could move into the compound at any time.
"So fast?"
Chu Lulu didn't expect the speed to be faster than she anticipated.
My younger sister should be coming to the military region next spring, which is about three months away.
"After what happened with Wang Chengjun, it was unsafe for you to stay in the guesthouse. The leaders took into account the special circumstances and approved it as soon as possible."
Xiao Jinli answered her first, then slowly stopped, "Lulu, I need to leave for a while."
He needs to go to Wang Chengjun's ancestral home to investigate, which will take at least half a month. If there are any special circumstances, his return date will be even more uncertain.
Although he bought a lot of things from the department store, he used to live alone, and the whole yard was empty and too simple.
"good."
Chu Lulu blinked her eyes. So what?
"If Li Xiuhong causes trouble during this period, don't hesitate to speak up."
"If you encounter something you can't handle, you can go to Huang Chendong. I'll introduce you to him in a bit."
Huang Chendong was the guard in the Independent Battalion, the one who could imitate handwriting.
“I am a 25-year-old, not a 5-year-old child.”
"Xiao Jinli, what exactly are you worried about?"
Listening to Xiao Jinli's rambling, and remembering how he used to call him "little mute," it was truly a name given in reverse!
What is he worried about?
Even though he knew she was quite strong and not the type to be bullied, it seemed like someone lived in her heart, and he couldn't help but worry and care about her.
"Isn't this the self-cultivation of a bandit man?"
Unable to find a reason, Xiao Jinli started to act shamelessly, using her past controversies to refute her claims.
Bandit leader.
A boomerang, just three months later, and it hit me right between the eyebrows.
"You've taken good care of yourself, so don't bother with that next time!"
Chu Lulu stomped on his foot angrily, then walked forward on her own.
Watching her huffy back, with her somewhat childish demeanor, Xiao Jinli's worries lessened a bit.
"Here is the key."
"You can decorate the room however you like. If you don't like something, you can just throw it away."
"Here are the newly purchased quilts, sheets, and daily necessities. If you need anything, you can buy it at the department store in the city."
He led Chu Lulu around the courtyard, introducing her to everyone one by one.
For the sake of quiet, he chose a courtyard that was located at the very back, next to a corner of the family compound.
"Take this passbook."
He took a bankbook out of his pocket and handed it to Chu Lulu.
Chu Lulu quickly called for a stop, feeling like she was being taken care of.
"Wait a minute!"
"I accept these things."
"I don't need a bankbook. I can buy whatever I need with my own money."
And... what kind of behavior is it to spend other people's money?
She felt at ease spending the money because it was a life-saving favor, but later, when she helped cover it up, the favors were offset.
Although she took advantage of the kindness shown to her, she still had her own moral principles.
"Isn't it only right that you decorate my yard and spend my money?"
Xiao Jinli raised his hand to check the time. "It's almost time to assemble. Huang Chendong will be here to help pack up in a bit. I have to go now."
"Chu Lulu, take good care of yourself."
He grabbed her coat by the wrist, placed the passbook in her hand, and turned to leave quickly.
Watching his retreating figure, the bankbook felt strangely hot to the touch.
This kid is quite filial!
Chu Lulu had just wiped the table when she heard a knock on the door.
"Comrade Chu, my name is Huang Chendong. I am a guard in the Independent Battalion. The battalion commander asked us to come and help."
"Just tell us if there's anything that needs to be done."
The battalion commander specifically instructed him to keep a close eye on this compound while he was on his mission, and not to let Comrade Chu be bullied.
When did his battalion commander ever show any interest?
rare!
Chu Lulu recognized the people and turned around to let them in.
There were a few acquaintances among them; they had gone over when Wang Chengjun was being dealt with.
"sister."
"Sis, if there's anything you need me to do, don't hesitate to tell us."
"Yes, we are strong and can do any kind of work."
The group was quite lively, but Huang Chendong, wearing glasses, glanced at them and seemed a bit out of place.
"Actually, there's not much to pack."
The yard had very few things: a wooden bed, a wooden table, and a few chairs.
Kitchenware?
No!
She guessed that the toiletries had been moved to the dormitory; she didn't see any of Xiao Jinli's personal belongings in the courtyard.
The house was empty; she was just someone staying there temporarily, so there was nothing to tidy up.
