Chapter 692 This World Is Not Peaceful
"I'll let you know if there's any progress in the investigation later."
"You don't have to worry about Shen Xing. Our people will be responsible for following up."
"After he returns home, we'll have to secretly monitor him for a while to see if we can get some useful clues from him."
Qin Feng nodded and prepared to hang up the phone, but before that Xu Wu mentioned another thing.
"Oh, there's one more thing that concerns you. I was planning to come over to you in person when I have time to tell you."
"I happen to have some free time, and the phone line is also a dedicated and confidential one, so I might as well tell you all at once."
Qin Feng nodded and listened attentively.
Xu Wu said, "First of all, the Demon Mercenaries are completely wiped out. Abel ultimately failed to escape the island nation. After killing a few small fry, he was surrounded and attacked by the resident mold and another group of people, and was eventually shot to death."
Qin Feng expected Abel's death.
Back on the Queen cruise ship, he deliberately spared this guy's life and released a smoke bomb, just to get him to go to Sakura and cause some trouble.
Although the number of kills was not large, the quality was relatively high, and it was also good to die in a hail of bullets in the end.
At least, before he died, he thought he had avenged himself.
From a side perspective, Qin Feng also fulfilled his dream of revenge, but he just killed the wrong person.
Xu Wu continued, "Secondly, your earlier trick of escaping did work. Those guys have already shifted their attention away from you. They all believe you're dead."
"So, whether it's you or your family, there's no need to worry about safety issues going forward."
"However, I still want to remind you that you should try to keep a low profile for a while. Especially, don't appear in newspapers, on television, or in news interviews. Otherwise, the other party will quickly realize that they've been tricked."
"If there's a next time, the revenge might be even more severe. I'll stay silent for a while until everyone forgets you..."
Qin Feng nodded: "I understand. This is also what the higher-ups meant when they gave me a holiday."
He asked back, "By the way, have you found out who the number I gave you earlier belongs to? And who's behind that Wen Youbin?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Qin Feng waited for a long time but Xu Wu didn't say anything.
The other party's silence also gave Qin Feng a definite signal.
The person behind the scenes has been found, or there is already a suspected target.
However, this person cannot be moved at the moment, or it is not the time to move him yet.
Once you reach a certain level, many things are no longer as simple as right or wrong.
There are too many complicated things involved behind this, even some strategic layouts.
"I can only tell you that this person has planned more than one conspiracy. Many of the accidents that our high-level talents have encountered are related to them."
"That guy must die, and he deserves to die, but he can't die now. Once the delicate relationship is broken, it will be a complete fallout..."
Qin Feng nodded to show that he understood.
He is a soldier, and just a soldier.
His mission is to be loyal to the people and to the motherland.
Other matters are not his concern, someone above him will naturally make the decision.
All he needs to do is get the order and permission.
This is what is called: investigation requires evidence, while counter-terrorism only requires a list.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Feng returned the phone to the Guoan staff member, and then no longer participated in the matter. Instead, he bought a new ticket and prepared to proceed according to the original plan.
There weren't many people in the waiting hall.
It's night time now, and we still have to wait more than two hours for the next bus.
So they each bought a bucket of instant noodles, ready to eat with the hot water at the waiting station to simply fill their stomachs.
It is said that the instant noodles at the station are really expensive. Everyone originally wanted to buy two buckets, but after seeing the price of 15 yuan per bucket, they were persuaded to give up.
Li Jiasheng followed them, eating and complaining: "Fifteen yuan a bucket of instant noodles, why don't they just go grab it? The price has tripled, who the hell can afford this!"
Qin Feng said jokingly, "Young Master Li from Jianming Group, you've actually started to feel bad about money? In the past, if you didn't mention a Michelin meal, it would have cost you several thousand?"
"Yeah, why do you still drink Starbucks every day? That thing costs thirty or forty yuan a cup, which is much more expensive than this."
"Li Jiasheng, have you been possessed by some dirty thing?"
Li Jiasheng didn't say anything, he just finished his noodles and drank up all the soup.
Even the remaining seasoning and carrots on the bottom of the bowl were eaten up.
He wiped his mouth and said with feeling, "After going through the days when my family went bankrupt, I suddenly realized that having money and being frugal are not contradictory. Save when you should, spend when you should, and don't waste food."
"This is what the army taught me. It was also the first lesson you, old squad leader, taught me in the recruit company."
Qin Feng and his companions smiled knowingly. The army had taught them a lot.
Whether it is Li Jiasheng, Qi Meng, Zhao Pengfei, or Qin Feng himself, they have all grown a lot during their years of military service.
It was this military uniform that gave him the determination and courage to change. These treasures cannot be bought back no amount of money.
"By the way, what did Shen Xing say about that incident later?" Zhao Pengfei suddenly asked in a low voice.
"The situation is a bit complicated." Qin Feng didn't explain too much because the details were still under investigation. "However, what we do know is that the area may become chaotic again."
Li Jiasheng said worriedly, "Won't the lives of our citizens living near the border become uneasy again?"
Qin Feng shook his head. "I don't know the details yet, but the higher-ups should increase border defenses along the border. No matter how chaotic that area gets, we won't let this evil wind blow into the country. This is the reason our soldiers exist."
Everyone nodded in agreement, but they felt inexplicably irritated.
Why is it that that area is always in such a mess?
It's like athlete's foot, which keeps coming back and making people restless.
But Qin Feng wanted to say that this world has never been peaceful. Any monster in the East Asian room is not easy to deal with. If it weren't for the University of East Asia, this place would be a mess.
The people of Yan State have been protected too well, so they have a preconceived notion that everything should be peaceful like in their own country, but the reality is not so.
Behind the apparent peace, there are various undercurrents.
It is the joint efforts of the military, police and armed forces that have kept all potential dangers out.
......
Two hours later, everyone took the high-speed rail to continue heading towards their destination.
Zhao Pengfei's hometown is in a low-lying town surrounded by several hills.
Due to its geographical location and other factors, this town has not been able to develop, so its economy has also been difficult to develop.
Most of those who have some money have moved to the county town to live, and most of those who remain in the town are middle-aged people, as well as some old men and women.
At around six or seven in the morning, Zhao Pengfei brought the three of them to a breakfast shop where he had been eating since he was a child and ordered authentic spicy soup and pan-fried dumplings.
The rich taste is many times more authentic than the ones made by the kitchen staff in the cafeteria. If you want to eat authentic food, you have to go to the place of origin.
After filling their stomachs, everyone packed their things and prepared to go to Zhao Pengfei’s grandfather’s house to visit his family elders.
Zhao Pengfei's father passed away early, and his mother remarried when he was twelve years old, and they never contacted each other again.
Because of this, he stopped studying after his first year of high school and went out to work to earn money. He worked as a sparring partner in a martial arts school and learned Sanda at the same time. Later, by chance, he joined the army.
"It's just around the corner."
Zhao Pengfei was walking in front carrying something, with an excited smile on his face.
He hadn't been back for more than two years, and thinking about seeing his relatives soon, his steps quickened.
But when he turned the corner, Zhao Pengfei saw many guys wearing safety helmets gathered at the door, and behind them was a bulldozer spewing black smoke.
His grandfather, who was in his eighties, was holding a hoe in his hand, standing angrily in front of the old house, and shouting excitedly at the people who came.
"Let's see who dares to come over here! If you have the guts, bury my old bones along with the house!"
