Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

The moment the instructor saw Ye Jian entering, he heaved a sigh of relief. When Instructor Chen fell, he only said, ”Contact Ye Jian as a last resort.”

This was the last resort. Uncle Chen’s family needed to take care of this.

”Ye Jian, Uncle Chen and I came to the capital city together. Uncle Chen was shot by a bullet when we reached the train station square. I’m sorry. I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to handle it, so I didn’t explain it clearly over the phone.”

Uncle Chen was shot by a bullet?

Hearing this, Ye Jian’s gaze turned sharp. A cold and sharp light shot out like an arrow. She asked the instructor of the base, ”Why did Uncle Chen come to the capital city? Who asked Uncle Chen to come? Uncle Chen is still undergoing surgery, right? Which operating room is he in?”

He wasn’t sick! Someone had attempted murder on him!

”Ye Jian, calm down a little. This is what we want to know too. The surgery hasn’t ended. We’ll go over together later and wait for the surgery to end.” Officer Lu, who was taking notes, added, ”This is the most suspicious part of this case. Besides the person involved, no one knows why he wanted to come to the capital city.

”This comrade doesn’t know either. He and the person involved came to the capital city on leave.”

As he spoke, he used his gaze to signal his colleagues to pour a glass of water for the female soldier who came in. She was so anxious that he couldn’t speak properly. She should drink a glass of water to calm herself down first.

Ye Jian wasn’t so flustered that she needed to drink water to calm down. Her tongue was still healing. The hospital said it would take at least a month before she could speak. Only eleven days had passed.

”Uncle Chen is undergoing surgery now. I can’t stand here and talk. I’m sorry, officers.” Ye Jian wasn’t in the mood to sit here and accept the police’s questioning. She needed to wait outside the operating room. She said to the instructor of the sniper base, ”Instructor, cooperate with Officer Lu and the rest for the questioning first. I’ll go to the operating room.”

The policeman poured some water and placed the glass in front of Ye Jian. He said in a low voice, ”He’s still undergoing emergency treatment. Let’s take the chance while the patient is undergoing surgery to understand the situation first.

”I need your cooperation too. I want to ask if the person in question has contacted you recently.”

Ye Jian took the glass of water and thanked him. She didn’t drink it but placed it on the table of the conference room. She couldn’t speak faster, so she could only take her time. ”Uncle Chen and I talked on New Year’s Eve. I was sent to the grassroots company in the Nanguang Military District. I couldn’t come back to accompany Uncle Chen for New Year’s, so I contacted Uncle Chen.

”On the morning of the first day of the new year, I called Uncle Chen again. After that, I had something on, so it was inconvenient for me to talk to him. I didn’t contact Uncle Chen again after that.”

”You spoke to the person in question twice. Did he reveal that he was coming to the capital city? You’re his only relative. Did you realize that he was hiding something from you?”

Ye Jian replied firmly, ”There was nothing abnormal. If Uncle Chen was hiding something from me, I would have more or less noticed it. However, I didn’t.

”At least not during the two calls with my Uncle Chen. If there’s anything amiss with Uncle Chen, it must have happened after he talked to me.

”Also, this matter might exceed the scope of your investigation.” After Ye Jian finished speaking, she looked at the instructor of the sniper base and asked him, ”Instructor, did you inform anyone else besides me?

”Where’s Uncle Chen’s phone? See if there are any clues on it. If not, you need to check the recent records on Uncle Chen’s phone. I’m sorry, I need to go to the operating room now. I’m sorry.”
