Chapter 278 Discharge



"By the way, how did the interrogation go? Did you get any information? Also, have you made any progress on the mastermind behind it all?" Feng Zhiyi thought for a moment and tried to ask Lu Lingxiao about the results of the interrogation.

After waking up, she didn't dare mention Meng Daqiang in front of Lu Lingxiao, because Meng Daqiang's betrayal not only hurt Lu Lingxiao, but also slapped Commander Lin across the face.

Yesterday, Commander Jiang, Political Commissar Zheng, and Division Commander Lin visited her at the hospital. When they mentioned Meng Daqiang's name, they all looked heartbroken.

The fact that a traitor had emerged in the army and caused the deaths of so many former comrades was a painful and heavy matter for the leaders. The excellent soldiers they had carefully trained had ultimately become unrecognizable because of money.

"There hasn't been much progress."

Lu Lingxiao said with a headache, "Neither Meng Daqiang nor Grandpa Feng have ever seen what the boss behind the scenes looks like. Nobody knows the boss's name, appearance, or anything else."

"Let's wait a bit longer. If we destroy a few more of his hideouts, he'll probably lose his patience and slip up sooner or later."

These past few days, Lu Lingxiao has thought a lot and re-analyzed all the clues. He found that there were many suspicious points. Not only were Grandpa Feng and his group helping the Sakura Kingdom, but they were also helping another group of people.

The Japanese spies who had infiltrated China were almost all wiped out, and their hideouts were completely destroyed.

Now the main focus is on another mysterious organization, and the biggest boss behind it!

That man was extremely mysterious and very guarded. Even though Grandpa Feng had done so many things for him over the years, he had never seen what the boss looked like. He only knew that the man was a middle-aged man whose voice was ruined.

but--

Lu Lingxiao felt that the other person's voice might not be damaged, but rather that something had been used to make the voice sound hoarse and unpleasant to Grandpa Feng, as if the voice had been burned.

"Who do you think could be the kind of person who could make both Grandpa Feng and Meng Daqiang work for him?" Feng Zhiyi asked curiously. "Could this person actually be living somewhere, watching everyone's every move?"

"I don't know either." Lu Lingxiao shook his head.

"However, Meng Daqiang worked for that boss probably because his two daughters were in the boss's hands, and also because he was paid a lot of money. I called Meng Daqiang's hometown to ask, and his two daughters have never returned."

"I suspect his two daughters may... be gone."

This is Lu Lingxiao's speculation.

That kind of organization is inhumane. How could they possibly support Meng Daqiang's daughters after taking them there? They were probably sold off or had their organs harvested and died long ago.

Or it's used for some kind of experiment.

Perhaps Meng Daqiang was deceived from the very beginning. The other party told him that his daughter was still alive, but did not let Meng Daqiang see his daughter. All these signs may have made Meng Daqiang suspect that his daughter was already dead.

But tempted by money, they ultimately succumbed to its allure!

There was still no news about the most dangerous person behind the scenes, but a somber message came from the interrogation room: Meng Daqiang had committed suicide by biting his tongue.

When Lu Lingxiao received the news, he was at the hospital packing his things to welcome Feng Zhiyi home after her discharge.

Feng Zhiyi was not surprised to hear this news. Even the worst people have a bit of pride, let alone Meng Daqiang, who was once a soldier. No matter how bad he was, he still had that sense of pride in his heart.

For him, it was better to end his own life than to stand in a military court for a public trial and then be executed by firing squad!

Feng Zhiyi followed Lu Lingxiao downstairs to take a look.

When the two arrived, the operating room was already packed with people.

There were uniformed police officers and military leaders, as well as Ye Zhihua, Lu Lingxiao's friend and Director Ye. Qin An and the others also came after hearing the news of Meng Daqiang's suicide.

"He hurt himself too badly; his tongue was bitten off completely. He's already dead. There's no need to rush him into the operating room for resuscitation. You should just notify his family to come and take his body home."

Dean Cheng shook his head as he spoke. This was the first time he had ever seen someone so ruthless to himself. "And you guys, with so many people, couldn't keep an eye on him?"

The police officer and guard on duty stood with their heads down, being scolded. After a long while, the guard finally muttered, "It's my fault."

"I just dozed off, I never expected him to be so quick. He bit down hard, and by the time I dislocated his jaw, it was too late."

“I also bear responsibility,” the young policeman stepped forward at this moment.

“None of us expected him to suddenly try to kill himself, and to be so ruthless to himself. It’s clear he was determined to die, otherwise he wouldn’t have gone to such lengths.”

"Alright, alright, the prisoners are all dead. Now is not the time to blame anyone. Besides, what's the use of blaming? Can it bring the prisoners back to life? However, it is a fact that you neglected your duties. Taking a nap during your shift is a major taboo."

Lin Zhan wasn't in a good mood at the moment. He waved his hand and said in a harsher tone to both sides that as a police officer, it was dereliction of duty to let a criminal commit suicide right under his nose.

"Director Ye, proceed with the procedures as required."

"In addition, notify the prisoner's family to come to your police station to take the body back for burial."

“We have already contacted him. When the prisoner’s parents heard that he committed a serious crime and then committed suicide, they hung up the phone without saying a word, saying that he had no connection with them anymore and that they would not care about his funeral arrangements.”

“That’s right. We’ve tried contacting his siblings, but none of them are willing to take care of his funeral arrangements, or even say a word.”

They were all afraid of getting into trouble.

Another reason is that they feel ashamed to have a brother/son who has committed a crime, so Meng Daqiang's family members all distanced themselves from him, saying that they had long since lost contact with him.

His life or death is none of their concern.

"Just send them to be cremated!"

Lu Lingxiao remained silent for a while before saying something to Ye Zhihua beside him, then took Feng Zhiyi's hand and left, "Wife, let's go home!"

The voice was very deep.

Feng Zhiyi held his hand tightly, their fingers intertwined, and after a long while, she whispered.

"Everyone has their own choices. He chose to commit suicide in this way. Perhaps he didn't want to, and dared not, stand in a military court to be judged and condemned by everyone."

Although Meng Daqiang has become very bad and even inhuman, he is cowardly and afraid to face the families of the comrades he killed.

I dare not even look at those parents who are in unbearable pain.

He caused dozens of families to fall apart, and some children lost their fathers and could never enjoy the love of their biological fathers or feel their fathers' warm embrace again.

Therefore, his subconscious reaction was to try to escape.
