Chapter 48 The Forty-eighth Little Tail

Major Zhao asked Ling Chen and the others to "wait a moment", and they waited until dark.

Jiang Cancan held the nutrient solution in his mouth, rubbing his skin and rubbing his itch, and leaned on the armrest of the chair without sitting properly, and said in a limp voice, "Who wants to see us? If we wait any longer, I, Can, will be sleepy!"

Jian Lan also yawned three times in a row, "It is likely that the big shot is not in Area 5. After knowing that we are here, they rushed here temporarily. Maybe they are the big shot from Area 1."

Unsure whether there was surveillance in the room, Jian Lan and Jiang Cancan did not say much. They muttered a few words and then fell silent.

Half an hour later, it was probably around ten o'clock in the evening, and the door of the room opened.

Four guards with guns on their backs walked in first, lined up in twos. The next one to come in was an old man in his fifties. He was wearing a dark formal suit, with a burly figure, sharp eyes, a slightly wrinkled forehead, and obvious nasolabial folds that made him look serious and difficult to approach.

Ling Chen saw who was coming and stood up and said, "Chief."

Jian Lan didn't expect that her blind guess was right. The person who came was indeed the boss of Area 1. She was also surprised and shouted "Uncle Xia."

Xia Yunfeng nodded and waved to the guards guarding the door to go out first. After the door was closed, he sat on the chair behind the desk and rested his elbows on the table. "You sit down too."

Ling Chen and the other four sat down.

Xia Yunfeng didn't beat around the bush. "Sorry, I'm a little late." He pinched his eyebrows and his voice was dry. "We had a meeting before. We were all old and quarreled by slamming the table, but we still couldn't decide who was better."

Ling Chen followed the other party's words and asked, "Is it with Lieutenant General Zhang and others? Lieutenant General Zhang has a bad temper and gets angry at the slightest thing."

Xia Yunfeng looked at Ling Chen and the others with a heavy look and sighed, "Lieutenant General Zhang has died."

Ling Chen's face changed slightly. Lieutenant General Zhang and Liang Ling, the former commander of the Second Department, are good friends. Their styles and ideas are very similar. Liang Ling once said that Lieutenant General Zhang had a stubborn personality. Once he made up his mind, he would not change easily. The probability of his betrayal was almost zero.

But now he has sacrificed himself.

Jian Lan noticed Ling Chen's silence and asked tacitly, "Uncle Zhang...did something happen?"

She grew up under the eyes of these people of the older generation, and the title of "Uncle" was very smooth.

Xia Yunfeng did not answer, but asked, "How much do you know about the current situation in the military region?"

Ling Chen was very single, "I don't know anything." He tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers, "Oh, by the way, Major Zhao who came to pick us up told me that my parents defected."

Unexpectedly, Ling Chen said so directly. Xia Yunfeng considered, "That's what is spread outside, but it hasn't been determined yet."

If Ling Chen had not received the message left by his mother Bai Hengyun and had not found the list of defectors with a confidentiality level of S+ from the intranet, he might have believed what Xia Yunfeng said.
