Chapter 777 Protecting Her Life
In order to ensure the safety of the think tank, there is a full regiment of internal security.
These people are not in black shirts, but their strength is not much different. Their main job is to deal with all emergencies within the area.
Lei Zhen got out of the car and walked into the headquarters of the Internal Security Corps.
Captain Xiao, who had received the call, was waiting at the door. When he saw Lei Zhen, he first saluted and then greeted him warmly.
"Instructor Lei, welcome to guide us. I'm Xiao Minjiang."
Different titles have different meanings. Calling Lei Zhen Instructor Lei does not mean that the training here is carried out in accordance with the new syllabus of the special forces.
Different functional tasks require different training modes.
But there is no doubt that calling Lei Zhen an instructor means shortening the distance.
After all, this is a confidential military system. If you call him Mr. Lei or Academician Lei, it will seem much more distant.
"I don't dare to be a coach, I just want to come and see Xiao Tuan since I'm new here. After all, this place makes me feel at home."
While others were keeping their distance, Lei Zhen was also very friendly.
"Instructor Lei is a straightforward person. You can treat this place as your own home. Come over anytime you want to eat. We even sing while we eat, haha."
"real?"
"Of course it's true. They are all troops."
"Okay, you don't have to call me Instructor Lei anymore, just call me brother. I won't call you Xiao Tuan anymore, I'll call you Brother Xiao."
“Haha, it works!”
It's easy to make friends with him, and Xiao Tuan even gives people the impression of being a veteran, but that's too normal.
The soldiers below are all serious, even indifferent, each one more dead than the other, but leaders must be tactful.
If you are not tactful enough, you will not be able to coordinate work and solve problems.
For example, if two old men who are national treasures were to fight, it would test Xiao Minjiang's work ability.
For example, if the demands made by the national treasures are too excessive, he will also need to deal with them.
If one thing is not handled properly, big problems will arise, so this position requires tact, being able to understand the intentions of superiors and handle various affairs well.
"Drink something?" Xiao Minjiang said, "The hot pot has been prepared by the kitchen staff. We'll cut up some mutton and two large kidneys later."
"It's not a violation of discipline, right?" Lei Zhen asked.
"Of course it's against the law." Xiao Minjiang said with a smile: "But it doesn't matter if I drink with you, brother. Anyway, you can't let me take the blame, right?"
"You're asking me to take the blame?"
"Brother, you're the one who's responsible for causing trouble all the time."
"Brother Xiao, are you so treacherous?"
"Hey, I'm just kidding. I'm just greedy. I can't go drink with those old academicians. Haha..."
It was tactful and just the right amount, neither making people feel flattering nor awkward, but instead bringing them closer together.
"Brother Xiao, I actually came to see you for something. I want to ask you what happened that day?"
Lei Zhen sat down and got straight to the point.
"I don't know about this, and I don't dare to say anything."
Xiao Minjiang quickly distanced himself from the matter. He didn't want to get involved in such matters, even though he had already heard the report.
But after seeing Lei Zhen's expression change slightly, he immediately handed him a cigarette.
"Brother, you have to understand me. It's definitely not convenient for me to talk about this kind of thing. But I know it's too important to you, so I helped you find someone."
"I'll have a couple of drinks with you later, then we'll go out on patrol. If you have anything to ask, you can ask me. Then I'll take you to see Li Jiuxiang."
Having said that, Xiao Minjiang lit a cigarette for Lei Zhen and spoke in a low voice.
"Just don't inflict fatal injuries, or we'll have to pay for the medical expenses. Is that okay, brother?"
Everything was arranged in advance. He knew that Lei Zhen would definitely come and would definitely ask what happened that day.
The eldest son almost died, who the hell wouldn’t go crazy?
Ordinary people would fight desperately with kitchen knives, let alone Lei Zhen.
Although Xiao Minjiang had been here all the time, he knew that Instructor Lei in front of him was killing like crazy. He didn't know how many houses he had raided and how many bones he had buried.
"Okay, let's do as you say, Brother Xiao." Lei Zhen nodded.
"Then I'll have a couple of drinks with you?" Xiao Minjiang shouted outside, "Hurry up and get the hot pot ready."
The cooking team brought out the copper hot pot quickly.
Here, Xiao Minjiang took out a bottle of old wine, opened it and poured it for the two of them.
"Brother, this first cup is to congratulate you on entering the National Treasure Base. If you have any problems or needs in the future, just give me a call."
"Hey, what can I do?" Lei Zhen said with a smile: "Although I came in, I basically don't live here."
If someone speaks nicely, he has to be polite in return.
"You have to come more often, otherwise who am I going to drink with? Haha, c'mon!"
“…”
The two had a few drinks and the door was pushed open.
Woman, black suit, black leather shoes.
Lei Zhen raised his head and looked the other person up and down. His eyes turned cold and the color of the blood spots in his pupils became brighter.
"I have to go on patrol." Xiao Minjiang stood up and said, "You guys sit down and talk, I'll come back later."
As he left, the room fell into silence, with only the sound of the bubbling hot pot.
The woman came over and sat down, poured Zi a glass of white wine and drank it all in one gulp. She put down the glass, her eyes slightly red, full of regret.
"Wei Huangzhi, what a nice name." Lei Zhen narrowed his eyes and said, "Long Yan has the Sky Eagle, and Long Lin has the War Phoenix."
Only Longlin Zhanhuang Wei Huangzhi is the only one who can achieve an equal status with the parrot.
Lei Zhen was not sure how powerful the parrot was because he had never actually fought it, but that did not prevent him from making a judgment based on King Qin's experience.
In a one-on-one fight, Lei Zhen could not defeat the King of Qin, and the King of Qin was definitely no match for the parrot.
Of course, this is based on the bare-handed basis. If equipped with weapons, Lei Zhen can achieve a single kill even if he cannot beat others.
Fighting and killing are two different things.
"sorry."
Wei Huangzhi apologized, his voice a little choked.
She poured herself another full glass and drank it down in one gulp.
"I have been responsible for Li Hongyu's personal security. I was nearby on the day of the incident, but I had to maintain a certain distance and avoid any suspicious conversations."
"It's the rule. Everyone has to stay away when the think tank members are talking. Plus, since it was Li Hongyu's father who came to visit, I let my guard down and let her out of my sight."
"When I heard the cry for help and rushed over, Li Hongyu was already lying on the ground, her lower body covered in blood..."
Wei Huangzhi's eyes turned even redder, his face filled with regret and guilt.
She was specifically assigned to protect Li Hongyu and could be considered her shadow guard, but she failed in her duty.
It would be fine if I failed in my duty outside, but I failed in my duty here and I can't forgive myself.
But then again, someone of Wei Huangzhi's caliber would never fail in his duties outside.
She is different from the parrot. The parrot is born from dragon flame and is good at attacking, while she is born from dragon scales and is good at defending.
But here they relax and eventually become derelict in their duty.
"What's the point of you making such a mistake?" Lei Zhen stared at her coldly: "Saying sorry is like begging for a chance, but you don't have one."
This major mistake will ruin Wei Huangzhi's future.
If the case is serious, he will have to serve at least a few years in prison; even if Li Hongyu pleads for mercy, he will be ordered to transfer to another job.
Now she has been suspended from all duties and is awaiting the final disciplinary result.
"Forget it. Hongyu begged me not to pursue the matter, and I couldn't help it." Lei Zhen stood up and walked out. "Wei Huangzhi, it's good to go home. You can get married, have children, and enjoy the happiness of family."
It seems like a favor, but in fact it is driving people away.
Wei Huangzhi bit his lips until they bled and tried hard to hold back his tears.
It's not sadness, but deep guilt and regret.
It was her mistake that led to Li Hongyu's accident and the country was forced to suspend many work.
If she really went to jail, Wei Huangzhi would feel better, but when she heard Lei Zhen say that Hongyu was still pleading for her...
"Lei Zhen, please give me a chance!"
"I don't care about any form of punishment. I just want to make amends. Otherwise, I will live in pain for the rest of my life."
"Please, give me another chance—"
Lei Zhen waved his hand and continued walking out.
"Please!"
Wei Huangzhi's tears finally flowed down, and she begged for another chance to make up for the consequences of her mistake.
"call……"
Lei Zhen stopped and turned to stare at her.
"Wei Huangzhi, can someone who has made mistakes still be used?"
"You're a top shadow bodyguard, you should know the rules. I spared your life and let you go home because I didn't want to make Red Fish sad."
The punishment could send Wei Huangzhi to jail, but Lei Zhen could kill her.
"Since you're going to spare my life, why don't you use it? Lei Zhen, I treat Hongyu as my own sister, and I have much more feelings for her than you do..."
Wei Huangzhi's face was covered with tears and he lowered his proud head.
“Snap!”
“Snap!”
Tears fell to the ground and shattered.
"Do you really want to redeem yourself from your crime?" Lei Zhen asked.
"think!"
Wei Huangzhi raised his head, his face full of hope.
"Forget it, I'll give you one more chance." Lei Zhen stared at her and said in a deep voice, "Can you protect her for the rest of her life?"
"able!"
Lei Zhen turned and walked out.
He believed in Wei Huangzhi because intuition never lies.
