Upon seeing the newcomer in the military headquarters building, someone was startled and immediately ran over, exclaiming, "Regimental Commander Gao!" and saluting.
"Is the commander here?" The voice was icy, like a thousand-year-old iceberg, making those around feel as if the temperature had dropped several degrees instantly.
The man, frozen stiff, stammered, "It's...it's up there."
Holy crap, I really want to shrink my neck...
Gao Dan said nothing more and left. Those who had originally planned to send this Yama to his death also changed their minds in an instant.
They're not stupid; they can naturally sense that Yama is very angry. If they blindly rush in, they'll likely die a horrible death, the kind where they can't die again.
In the army commander's office, Gu Beiwang was discussing matters with his chief of staff and political commissar.
"Report!"
"Enter!"
The soldier on guard at the gate opened the door and came in. After saluting the three officers inside, he said, "Reporting to the officers, Commander Gao has arrived."
Hearing the soldier's words, Gu Beiwang was genuinely stunned for a moment. The other chief of staff and political commissar exchanged a smile, then said to Gu Beiwang:
"Commander, we'll head out now."
Gu Beiwang waved his hand: "Alright, let's proceed as planned."
The two went outside and, as expected, saw people waiting outside.
Gao Dan saluted the two men with a stern expression: "Greetings, Commanders."
The chief of staff and the political commissar were originally Gu Beiwang's confidants, and they knew more about the relationship between the two than others: "We're not outside, don't be so formal, just let it go."
"yes!"
"Go on in, the army commander is waiting for you inside," the political commissar said with a smile.
Gao Dan nodded and walked inside.
Commander Gu had clearly regained his commanding presence. His expression was serious as he sat behind his desk, signing documents. When someone entered, he paused in his signing, and a black dot was noticeably added to the signature area on the paper.
"Report."
Gu Beiwang put down his pen and looked up at his son, who was standing not far in front of him: "Why are you here at this time? What's the matter?" he asked coldly.
The expression clearly indicated that they were not welcome.
I really want to say that's not how it is.
Who knew that his words would turn so cold and indifferent? Even Commander Gu himself didn't know why.
"The person caught during the military exercise 'committed suicide'."
As the army commander, Gu Beiwang naturally knew everything that happened during the military exercise, and he also knew that the commendation for his son had been issued and would soon be in his hands.
Upon suddenly hearing the prisoner say "suicide," Gu Beiwang frowned.
"How could it be 'suicide'?"
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a chance, right?
Prisoners of that level are always handcuffed and shackled, and are never left unattended, all to prevent them from committing suicide.
“It was my fault. I wanted to get the information he wanted, so I didn’t put him in handcuffs.”
Gu Beiwang immediately understood the meaning behind those words, and his face darkened: "So, you used underhanded tactics?"
The tradition of soldiers in country Z is to treat prisoners of war well. Without a special order from a superior, they are absolutely forbidden from using private methods to interrogate prisoners. This is strictly prohibited!
But now, his own son knowingly committed the crime, which even led to the prisoner's "suicide."
Gu Beiwang felt a headache coming on and had an urge to punch someone.
"Yes!" Gao Dan did not deny it and admitted it directly.
Snap!
Commander Gu slammed his hand heavily on the table: "Gu Bodan, you've got some nerve! Who gave you the right to interrogate prisoners privately using underhanded methods? Don't you know that this violates military regulations?"
