“Good! Sister, by the way,”

“What is it?” Nan Fei, with the medal in her hand ready to be placed in the box, turned her head towards Zhuanzhuan upon hearing her voice.

“The medal is so beautiful!”

Nan Fei’s face instantly turned crimson, “You… you’ve seen it?”

“Yeah! It’s so shiny, it must be made of rare metals, right? We learned about them in physics, they are very precious!”

Nan Fei’s face turned even redder, feeling the medal in her hand burning hot, yet she was reluctant to let it go.

“Go to bed, it’s too late, stop writing, hurry up.” Nan Fei threw the blanket over her head and feigned death, with the medal still in her hand, she didn’t put it back in the box and fell asleep holding it.

You could hear Zhuanzhuan laughing even through the covers.

Ying Jiuming was busy until the early hours of the morning before he brought people back to the police station. Once there, they had to interrogate Liu Yongxia and Jiang Minmin throughout the night. Sun Lu’s relatives, the relevant staff or leaders from the county hospital, all had to be summoned.

There were many follow-up things to do, waiting for the forensic doctor’s firm conclusions, as well as the comparison of evidence from the crime scene.

By the time he had finished with everything, it was already daylight.

Ying Jiuming finally remembered that he had not made a call to a certain jerk! Using his internal privileges, he called the Snow Eagle Special Forces first but couldn’t reach anyone. After he had reported his name, someone who recognized him picked up.

Everyone knew him, and since he was using the dedicated line of the public security system, they transferred him to a satellite phone.

When the call reached Huo Beijiang, he was sitting haughtily on a pile of sand, eating breakfast. He was extremely unhappy with the person who had disturbed his meal.

“Ying Jiuming, you’d better have something important. Otherwise, I won’t let you off when I return.” People on a mission abroad hate being disturbed by personal calls or matters.

This could affect performance.

This taboo is heightened according to the difficulty and risk of the mission. For a typical mission, it wouldn’t matter much. But for critical missions, everyone must adhere. One reason for this is to maintain secrecy and military discipline, and the other is to remain focused.

Otherwise, he would have called his wife long ago. He’d been away for over a month with no contact at all, right?

Knowing that Ying Jiuming had called him, he might as well have taken the initiative to call his wife!

“Fuck! Is the mission important?”

“What do you think? When have I ever had a non-important mission?”

Ying Jiuming didn’t retort, what he said was actually true! As the top operative of the Snow Eagle’s elite, it’s a stretch for him to take on ordinary missions.

“I was going to talk to you about Nan Fei’s family situation, but never mind. I won’t bother you.”

“Wait a minute…” Huo Beijiang grunted on the phone, hurriedly finishing his breakfast, then said, “Speak! You’ve already called.”

Ying Jiuming couldn’t help but chuckle, knowing this guy values romance over friendships. When he hears it’s about his wife, he becomes unprincipled and without boundaries.

However, knowing that Huo Beijiang was short on time, he thought it best not to tease him over the phone, and cut to the chase about Sun Lu’s case.

It took almost a minute for Huo Beijiang to swallow his meal and then speak in a low voice, “So, a nurse named Sun Lu is dead, Nan Fei’s aunt is the suspect, and Nan Fei’s sister Zhuanzhuan is a witness?”

“Indeed! That is the exact sequence.”

Huo Beijiang’s hand clenched the satellite phone a bit tighter, making the communication soldier near him worried he might crush the phone. Last time during the sandstorm, they lost a significant amount of supplies, and in such a large rescue team, they only had these two satellite phones left.

The other one was with the second team!
