"Regarding the second point, we did find a difference, but I hope you will listen to me and remain calm. Besides, this is just a question we have and we are not sure about."
"Yes, please go ahead."
"The doctor who sprained her ankle was also a woman. Her sprain wasn't an accident; it was intentional. She had a suitor, the grandson of a certain leader, who was pursuing her. When he heard she was going on a field mission, he had someone bump into her, causing her to sprain her ankle, to prevent her from going. Due to the special nature of this mission, only your mother was temporarily qualified, so she had to go. Little did she know, that would be her last." As Commander Guan spoke, he felt a pang of sadness, and his voice lowered slightly.
"Do you know what happened to this person after he found out about my mother's sacrifice? Or did you investigate? What about the doctor who was replaced? What was her attitude? Did she know that her sprained ankle was caused by someone? Since you've investigated, what was the attitude of his superior, the grandfather? He couldn't possibly not know. Can you tell me?"
An Moxue's series of questions left the two people in the room silent; clearly, the answer was likely negative.
Zhang Jing said, "Mo Xue, I personally followed up on this matter. When the investigation reached this point, you have no idea how angry I was. I couldn't control my temper and went to see that leader and even met his grandson. They both said they were willing to compensate you, but I refused. Why should they? They just want to spend some money, easily spend some money, and settle this matter so they can feel at ease. It's not that easy!"
After saying this, Zhang Jing's eyes reddened. Mo Xue had not only lost her mother but also her father in this incident, becoming a helpless orphan. She was only sixteen years old.
Chief Guan remained silent, his face solemn.
An Moxue slowly opened her mouth and asked, "Did they say how they would compensate me?"
"What?" Zhang Jing was still lost in his own thoughts when An Moxue asked him this question. Thinking he hadn't heard clearly, he asked again, "What did you just say?"
Chief Guan also looked at her.
An Moxue looked at the two of them and then said, "Didn't they say they wanted to compensate me? Did they say how they would compensate me?"
"I was too angry at the time, so I didn't ask."
"Could you please ask Uncle Zhang or Uncle Guan how they want to compensate me?"
"Mo Xue, what do you mean by that? You want compensation? Is that what you mean?"
"Yes, but only if they are sincere enough."
"That won't do! It would be letting them off easy!"
"If they disagreed, what punishment did they receive?"
Yes! I disagree, but they're still doing fine, that's why I'm angry.
Seeing that the two remained silent, An Moxue said, "Could you give me a detailed list of information about that female doctor and this leader's grandson? Including their addresses and family relationships, the more detailed the better." She hadn't seen the information in yesterday's report, which only contained the female doctor's name.
"Okay," Commander Guan said.
"Mo Xue, what are your plans?" Zhang Jing asked.
"No, keep it in reserve!" Even if I had it, I couldn't tell you!
"Could you please inquire about the compensation for me? I'd prefer to receive it this time. However, my bottom line is 20,000 yuan. Just pass on the message; I can negotiate myself. Ideally, I'd like to meet that doctor and that bastard."
"Mo Xue, isn't this too much?" Zhang Jing thought to himself and asked.
Chief Guan also felt that An Moxue was asking for too much, and that people might not agree.
An Moxue smiled confidently and said, "You have to pay the price for doing something wrong."
Both of them agreed with what she said, but An Moxue had a second half to say: if the world can't help me get the justice I deserve, it's okay, I'll do it myself.
"Please arrange this for me!"
"Okay," said Commander Guan.
However, both of them had some disagreement with An Moxue's offer of compensation. An Moxue could tell, but she didn't explain. Some things are best left unsaid.
"Thirdly? Who gave them permission to go on missions at the same time?"
"On this point, Mo Xue, I can only mention one name, but you must not act impulsively. Can you do that?"
"Yes," An Moxue replied decisively.
Commander Guan wrote down a name and handed it to An Moxue.
An Moxue took the paper, glanced at it, and had no recollection of it. She calmly put the paper back into her bag.
Then he said to Chief Guan, "Could you give me a copy of his biography, family information, and affiliation?"
Commander Guan and Zhang Jing exchanged a glance, and Zhang Jing asked, "Do you have any thoughts?"
"No, it's better to be prepared. You can collect it easily, but it would be difficult for me to find it myself, is that alright?"
"Zhang Jing, please prepare a copy for her in a moment," Chief Guan said to Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing replied, "Yes, sir."
"Fourth question, is there anything you can tell me?"
"There's really nothing we can do about this. We just can't find it no matter what we do. It shouldn't be like this, but we just can't find it, and that's the most frustrating thing about it."
"Not even a single clue?"
"No, it's too clean, which is the biggest point of suspicion."
"So, the most likely reason I'm being hunted down is here, isn't it?"
"Yes, that's the most infuriating thing."
"And what about the fifth point? What about my parents' belongings?"
"I was robbed on the way back. That's what I told them at the time. Later, I went to talk to everyone who went on this mission, and they all gave the same answer. I thought they were just everyday items, so I didn't pay much attention! Now it seems that it might not be so simple," said Commander Guan.
"And what about the sixth point? Have you ever questioned it?"
Both of them shook their heads. Commander Guan said, "The political vetting for those who can participate in missions of this level is extremely strict, so we never had any doubts."
"What happened after they came back? Do you think there's anything suspicious about it?"
After a while, both of them said no.
"And finally, regarding the issue of the personnel's origins, did you notice that a group of twelve people came from four different places?"
“I know a little about this. Mo Xue, as you know, your father used to go on missions very frequently. Six people in this team have been on missions with your father before, and they worked well together. This is also an important reason why your father was temporarily replaced as the team leader in this incident.”
An Moxue was unaware of this inside story. Everything seemed reasonable, but does a lot of coincidences necessarily mean they are coincidences?
No, too many coincidences would only indicate a meticulously planned scheme. Otherwise, why would she be being hunted down?
An Moxue absolutely did not believe in any damned coincidences.
"Could you please give me a copy of these people's information?"
"I can only give you the most basic information; their confidentiality levels are quite high."
"Sure, knowing so much and getting this information has already saved me a lot of trouble, but I won't give up!"
"Finally, could I know the list of personnel received this time and what the research results are?"
