Brigade Commander Lin left the State Security Department's family compound and went straight to the address written in the letter.
By the time he arrived, it was completely dark.
The courtyard was brightly lit, and the faint sounds of laughter and chatter from several people could be heard, interspersed with the clinking of cups and dishes.
There were both men and women, and as he thought about what the documents mentioned, his face grew even darker and more somber.
He's a soldier, after all; he can handle the few people inside.
He calmly walked into the courtyard with his tools in his hand.
The door was kicked open.
"who?"
Who are you?
Brigade Commander Lin looked at the terrified Lin's mother and coldly curled his lips, "The King of Hell who will take your lives!"
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
He didn't give the other person a chance to speak. How many good people come here? He considered this the last good deed he could do.
Seeing Lin's mother vomiting blood and looking at him with disbelief, he walked over and squatted down beside her.
"You bitch! You deserve to die! If it weren't for you, my life wouldn't be like this now!"
"Go to hell!"
"Bang!"
Lin's mother couldn't utter a single word until the very end. She died with her eyes wide open, the resentment and bitterness in them solidifying before they could dissipate.
Brigade Commander Lin glanced at the corpse on the ground, then calmly raised his hand with a "Bang!"
The moment he fell to the ground, he heard footsteps and shouts from outside the door.
The sound faded into the distance, and he was completely enveloped in darkness.
...
When Bai Yajing heard the news again, the case had already been solved, and she accompanied Lin Huan to retrieve Commander Lin's ashes.
He was no longer a soldier, so he could not be buried in the martyrs' cemetery.
Lin Huan plans to take leave to send the body back to his hometown for burial, which will also be a way of giving himself closure.
Having fulfilled that last bit of family bond, she can now begin a completely new life.
"Sister-in-law, I've already asked for leave. I have a train ticket for tomorrow. I'll be back as soon as I'm done with this."
Her eyes were red, but her emotions were relatively stable.
Bai Yajing took out five hundred yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into her hand, saying, "Be prepared to travel with caution, bring the money and spend it as you wish. We're all waiting for you at home!"
If she could have stayed home, she would have liked to go with them.
Lin Huan refused, saying, "I have money, sister-in-law! I can't take your money anymore!"
She owes Bai Yajing far too much.
Bai Yajing stopped her hand from returning the money, saying, "You are my sister, we are family!"
You should at least tidy up your mother's and grandparents' graves in the village, right?
Furthermore, no matter how simple a funeral is, it still costs money.
Over the past few days, she had grown to really like Lin Huan, this kind and sincere girl, and had long considered her her own sister.
Besides, with so much money found in the Lin family's possessions, giving Lin Huan any amount wouldn't be a problem.
She also planned to prepare a dowry for her when she got married, as her family would send her off on her wedding day.
Lin Huan was so moved that she threw herself into her arms and silently shed tears.
The next morning, her grandmother prepared food for her to eat on the train. Bai Yajing drove Lin Huan to the station herself and used her own spot to get her a sleeper ticket.
"Call me when you come back, and I'll come pick you up."
"Okay, sure! Sister-in-law, you should go back now!"
After seeing Lin Huan off, Bai Yajing went home.
She wasn't worried about Lin Huan's side; Lin Huan's hometown was there, and she had said that the villagers treated her and her daughter well.
She was also given the village's phone number, so she could contact them anytime she wanted.
