"Because just ten years ago, the group's leader at the time, Songxi, was killed on the spot by Comrade Ji Yanqing, who was serving as a sniper, during a joint border operation."
"Comrade Ji Yanqing has participated in many special operations to combat crime in Sanbianpo and has made outstanding contributions."
"But just before the last critical operation against the group, he was suddenly and urgently transferred away from the front lines, his mission was terminated, and he returned to the rear, where he was relegated to a secondary role."
Xia Zhining's heart sank, and she immediately asked, "What was the reason for the mission being suddenly terminated? Was he... injured at the time?"
Commander Song's tone turned somber: "The news of the final operation has been leaked."
"The police paid a heavy price, with many dead and injured. Afterwards, someone anonymously reported that... Comrade Ji Yanqing had betrayed the police and colluded with Tailanjin to leak intelligence."
"That's absolutely impossible!" Xia Zhining blurted out. "Is there any evidence?"
“There is no direct evidence.” Commander Song’s voice was tinged with suppressed emotion.
"But at the time, the investigation team did have some indirect leads that were unfavorable to him."
"For example, before the operation, only a very small number of core members knew the specific time and route. However, Comrade Ji Yanqing had gone out once for personal reasons within 48 hours before the operation, and part of his itinerary could not be fully verified."
"In addition, during the subsequent cleaning of the communication records of a suspected middleman, a brief communication signal was found that was encrypted but seemed to point to the encrypted frequency band he was using at the time."
"Furthermore... some of the details of the actions mentioned in the whistleblower letter are too specific for non-core participants to know."
Commander Song was afraid that Xia Zhining would be too emotional and unable to process so much information at once, so he softened his voice.
"Since the facts could not be verified and suspicion could not be completely ruled out, the organization, for reasons of overall security and his personal protection, ultimately decided..."
"Let Comrade Ji Yanqing temporarily step down to the second line."
Xia Zhining's hand holding the receiver trembled slightly. She had heard her brother say that their father had been an elite Marine who had become a criminal investigator.
Such a loyal and outstanding person was forced to leave the front line, ruining his future, and left with no way to defend himself...
This is more than just a pity, it's downright hateful!
Who exactly is spreading rumors?
Can the Xia family really extend their reach into such core operations?
Or is this all part of "Tyrankin's" treacherous scheme, a divisive tactic used to precisely lure the father, the most threatening sniper, away from the front lines?
A chilling thought surfaced in her mind: "My brother... he was so outstanding in university, yet he was assigned to such a remote, grassroots position after graduation. Could this also be..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but the chill in her words was already clear.
Commander Song frowned: "I privately asked an old friend to investigate Ji Shuyun's assignment situation."
“Around the time of his graduation, his file received a large number of anonymous reports, which mainly focused on a few points: one was that his family background was complicated and he was not suitable to be involved in core affairs.”
"Secondly, they falsely accused him of having problematic personal conduct and speech. These accusations have been investigated and found to be baseless."
"Third, it was pointed out that his father's sacrifice may have had a psychological impact on him, making him unsuitable for high-pressure frontline work."
Commander Song sighed: "Given the atmosphere at the time and the constant stream of reports, in order to be on the safe side, the organization ultimately made a protective arrangement, transferring him to a remote grassroots position, ostensibly for observation and training."
"To put it bluntly, those whistleblower reports, even without concrete evidence, successfully impacted his future."
Xia Zhining felt a chill run through her: "You just mentioned that the Xia family was also involved."
"What specific roles did they play in the events of their father's sacrifice and their brother's setback at work?"
