Chapter 409 Negotiation Part 2
When Wang Shanshan finished speaking, the bald old man immediately asked, "So my Zhuo Wen was the only one who died? And why did you take so long to come back?"
The first question is somewhat untenable, while the second question is the biggest loophole in Wang Shanshan's description.
Putting aside other details, Xing Zhuowen has been dead for a month, but the other party has only returned now. Isn't it because there is some traitor?
"The two soldiers who came to rescue me also died!" Wang Shanshan choked up, "And we've been hunted all this time."
The bald old man was taken aback. His face flushed and he asked, "Where are Tang Shuo and Yu Haoran now?"
"Hospital."
Wang Bihan stepped forward and answered on behalf of Wang Shanshan: "Captain Yu was shot six times and stabbed eleven times. Tang Shuo was shot twice and stabbed three times."
The bald old man took a breath. He knew that Wang Bihan could not lie about such an issue, and this matter was also very easy to verify, but he still felt that there was something strange about it.
"This is just one-sided statement from both of you. Do you have any evidence?" asked the bald old man.
"She and I are both evidence." Wang Bihan pointed at herself and then at Wang Shanshan and said, "Are you suspecting that we are lying?"
“…”
The bald old man mumbled twice and wisely chose not to speak.
Since the matter has become like this, it is definitely impossible to hide it. Once his doubts are spread out, both the higher-ups and the lower-ups will probably have some opinions about him.
Then the bald old man looked at the old man next to him for help.
The other party nodded to him and then asked, "You must be Bi Han, right? Tell us about this case."
Wang Bihan looked at Wang Jianye's face with an inquiring look, and after seeing the other party nod slightly, she repeated what she had said.
However, when she was narrating, she changed the purpose of her and Tang Shuo's trip to the British-European Union to tourism, and only after receiving Xing Zhuowen's call for help did she and Tang Shuo come to her aid.
Although many people are skeptical about this case, there are no good questions at the moment.
After Wang Bihan finished explaining, Wang Jianye said directly: "You two should go down and rest first!"
Then he looked around the conference room and said, "This time, the situation is very clear. I am very sad about Xing Zhuowen's death. But now that it has happened, we should face it head-on."
"Next, we will hold a memorial service, allowing the entire army to learn from Comrade Xing Zhuowen." Wang Jianye gave the bald old man a meaningful look. He said to the crowd, "Next, we will discuss the events following Xing Zhuowen's death. All irrelevant people, please leave now."
The only man who was not in military uniform frowned when he heard that Yu Haoran was not dead. When he heard Wang Jianye's words, he immediately stood up and walked out of the office, looking like he had something urgent to deal with.
Tan Zhuojun looked expectantly at the old man next to the bald old man, and followed him out of the meeting room.
…
When only the few old men sitting in the middle of the conference room remained, Wang Jianye said, "Now we can decide on the next captain of 037."
The bald old man exchanged a glance with the old man beside him, then said, "I suggest Comrade Tan Zhuojun take over. Everyone should know his identity. Whether judging from his resume or personal qualities, I think it would be difficult to find someone more suitable than him."
"Although Tan Zhuojun is my grandson, I believe that he is indeed capable of holding this position, regardless of his relationship with the person." The old man surnamed Tan said.
"Old Huang, what do you think?" Wang Jianye then turned his gaze to Huang Chaoqun.
Huang Chaoqun narrowed his eyes in confusion and replied, "I don't think we need to rush into this matter. We've just sorted out Xing Zhuowen's situation. And Yu Haoran has returned, so we should observe for the time being."
"The captain's position has been vacant for a month. If this continues, I'm afraid the entire 037 will be in trouble!" said the bald old man.
At this point, the four people in the room all turned their attention to the only old man who hadn't yet expressed his opinion. He looked up at the others and then said, "I think it's best to wait a few days. Everyone should nominate a candidate they think is suitable, and then we can discuss it."
The bald old man's expression changed, and he glanced at the old man named Tan next to him who also had a puzzled look on his face.
Wang Jianye, who was sitting at the head of the group, immediately said, "Let's do this. We'll have another meeting in three days. Let's call it a day today!"
Then Wang Jianye began to pack up the things on the table and walked out of the meeting room. Wang Jianye stopped and said to the bald old man behind him: "Old Xing, I have something I want to talk to you about."
Bald Old Xing frowned doubtfully, then nodded and agreed, "Okay."
…
In the office, Wang Jianye poured a glass of water for Old Xing and said, "Don't worry, I will ask for help in investigating Zhuo Wen's case."
Bald Old Xing took the water and nodded slowly.
He understood that Wang Jianye had not called him here for this matter, so he didn't dare to speak casually for a moment.
After learning of Xing Zhuowen's death, he spent almost every day trying to identify Tang Shuo, Yu Haoran, and his gang. However, after the initial days of grief passed, he began to consider how to maximize his potential within the current situation. (Hongfeng Zhonghao)
Of course, this doesn't mean he doesn't want revenge anymore. Rather, he's starting to think about how he can get revenge while also benefiting from it.
So he quickly thought of joining forces with the Tan family to put pressure on Wang Jianye.
He had never thought that such a situation would occur in today's meeting. At the beginning, he and Old Tan's goal was to help Tan Zhuojun get the position of captain, but in the end they were stopped by Wang Jianye.
"Three generations of your family have devoted their youth to the military. I will do my best to assist with Zhuo Wen's funeral arrangements." Wang Jianye suddenly asked, "Is your eldest son still in the Xinjiang-Tibet region?"
Wang Jianye's words changed so quickly that Old Xing didn't react for a moment. Once he realized what he was asking, he immediately replied, "Yes."
"The term of office will be changed soon. There should be vacant positions in Yanjing by then. Let him move." Wang Jianye said to Lao Xing.
Bald Old Xing hesitated for a moment. He had to say that he was very moved by Wang Jianye's words, but he also knew that this matter was not as easy as he thought.
The last paragraph will be revised. I haven’t been in good shape recently and am often late. Sorry!!
At this point, the four people in the room all turned their attention to the only old man who hadn't yet expressed his opinion. He looked up at the others and then said, "I think it's best to wait a few days. Everyone should nominate a candidate they think is suitable, and then we can discuss it."

After learning of Xing Zhuowen's death, he spent almost every day trying to find Tang Shuo and Yu Haoran. However, after the initial period of grief passed, he began to think about how to gain greater benefits from the current situation.
Of course, this doesn't mean he doesn't want revenge anymore. Rather, he's starting to think about how he can get revenge while also benefiting from it.
So he quickly thought of joining forces with the Tan family to put pressure on Wang Jianye.
