Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1458
Chapter 1458: Rare goods
Ye Xuan’s legs gave way and he was about to kneel before Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng quickly grabbed his arm and stopped him from kneeling. He nodded. “I promise you, when her body is brought back, I will bury her with her parents.”
Gu Xiangwen and his wife were already buried in the National Martyrs’Cemetery in the imperial capital. As their underage daughter, Little Nianzhi could also enjoy the same treatment.
No matter what, Little Nianzhi’s identity was unquestionable.
Ye Xuan thanked Huo Shaoheng profusely. He had promised that he would ask him to come and see Little Nianzhi off. Only then did he feel at ease leaving his office.
Huo Shaoheng called for someone to send Ye Xuan out. He then asked Zhao Liangze to show the video he had just recorded to Gu Yanran.
When Gu Yanran saw Huo Shaoheng suddenly ask ye Xuan from the video, “Did you find out that you loved the wrong person and regret it?”
When ye Xuan blurted out “Of course” and expressed his regret, Gu Yanran was so angry that her whole body trembled.
She clenched her teeth and clenched her fists tightly. Her fingers were so deep into her palms that they were bleeding.
The piercing pain made her want to scream, scream, and vent, but she was restrained by the electronic collar around her neck.
The feeling of being unable to vent her anger deepened her pain. She clutched her chest and fell to the ground, sobbing until she was almost out of breath.
This time, she deeply understood Huo Shaoheng’s style of taking revenge for the smallest grievance.
Other situations might be fine, but once he and Nianzhi’s feelings were offended, he would definitely retaliate ruthlessly.
No matter what, he would not let you have it easy.
..
After sending Ye Xuan off, Huo Shaoheng asked fan jian to drive him to see Bai Jinyi, who was locked up in prison.
A year in prison had made Bai Jinyi even older.
She was originally about the same age as song jinning, but now she looked like song Jinning’s grandmother.
She had skin like a chicken, hair like a crane, and looked very old.
Huo Shaoheng sat on the chair in the reception room and calmly watched Bai jinyi walk over with handcuffs on. She sat down in front of him.
“Major General Huo? What a rare guest.”Bai Jinyi sat down slowly and tilted her head to smile. “What can I do for You?”
Huo shaoheng sized her up and said without batting an eyelid, “You’ve been in prison for a year. It’s like you’ve been in prison for ten years.”
“Yeah, I’ve been here for years…”Bai Jinyi had just finished speaking when she suddenly realized that Huo Shaoheng was saying that she had aged ten years in a year!
She was so angry that her teeth were itching.
For a woman, even a convicted murderer would mind being called fat and old.
This had nothing to do with a woman’s status, status, and treatment. It was purely instinctive.
Bai Jinyi’s expression immediately changed. She glared angrily at Huo Shaoheng and stood up with a cold smile. “Major General Huo came all the way here just to see me make a fool of myself? Then I won’t be accompanying you!”
Huo Shaoheng looked at Bai Jinyi’s aged face and suddenly said, “Bai Jinyi, seven years ago, you went to C city to monitor the magnetic field data. Who gave you the information?”
Bai Jinyi was just about to turn around when she heard what Huo Shaoheng said and froze.
Her expression did not have time to change. She struggled between anger and fear, and it was very twisted.
Seeing Bai jinyi like this, Huo Shaoheng had an idea.
As expected, the magnetic field didn’t appear out of anywhere.
“Seven years ago? You were still a director at the Institute of High Energy Physics in the imperial city and didn’t leave the Imperial City. How did you know that the magnetic field in C city would appear at a specific time?”
Huo Shaoheng threw out one question after another, “Bombing”Bai Jinyi’s brain, and she was overwhelmed.
“Or do you have real-time monitoring of the magnetic fields in C city or all of Huaxia?”
“Don’t try to fool me with such a reason.”Huo Shaoheng’s attitude became more and more composed. “Even our military can not do this kind of technology. Although Your Institute of high energy physics represents the highest level of Huaxia physics, it can not do it.”
“Because what is needed is not technology, but huge financial resources and strict execution ability.”
“The Institute of high energy physics doesn’t have either of those.”
Huo Shaoheng stood up, his hands in his pockets. “You even called for military protection, especially for me to come personally.”
His eyes narrowed imperceptibly. “Tell me, who gave you the information? Why do I have to protect you?”
Bai Jinyi’s heart almost jumped out of her throat when she heard that.
She calmed down after a while and tilted her body to look at Huo Shaoheng. She smiled faintly and said, “No one gave me the information. I happened to observe the results myself.”
“… happened? You’re in the capital. Under what circumstances do you have surveillance in the downtown area of C City?”Huo Shaoheng was as still as a mountain. He looked at Bai Jinyi quietly. “Actually, it’s okay if you don’t tell me.”
Huo Shaoheng looked Bai Jinyi up and down. His eyes were deep. “From your physical reaction just now, I can already tell that someone did give you information. I’ll apply for a search warrant from the court and continue to search all of your movable and immovable property.”
He did not believe that a woman who had already been sentenced to death in prison could continue to hide it.
To his surprise, Bai Jinyi did not seem to be worried at all. She smiled and bent over.
“Fine, go and investigate! If you find out, it’s on You!”Bai Jinyi raised her handcuffed hands and covered her mouth, but her laughter still came out.
This reaction was somewhat abnormal.
“… you’ve already destroyed all the sources of information?”Huo Shaoheng instinctively judged, he thought deeply and said, “That means someone did give you information, and it was a one-time piece of information. Then, was it an email, letter, small note, cell phone text message, or a phone call?”
Huo Shaoheng spoke slowly as he observed Bai Jinyi’s expression.
When Huo Shaoheng said “Email, letter, note, and text message,” Bai Jinyi was noncommittal, and her expression did not change at all.
When he said “Phone call,”Bai Jinyi could not help but blink.
“… looks like it’s a phone call.” Huo Shaoheng was deep in thought. “I can go to the telecommunications department and the phone operator to look up all your phone records from seven years ago.”
This way, it wouldn’t matter even if the contents of her phone were deleted.
However, Bai Jinyi was still smiling. “Sure, go ahead and look it up. I’ll still say the same thing. If you find out, it’s on you… hahahaha…”
Huo Shaoheng’s heart skipped a beat. Bai Jinyi’s fearless attitude reminded him of another phone.
In that phone, it had once received a content that was not sent through the mobile phone operator.
He nodded slightly, “I know, it should be my uncle’s phone. If I remember correctly, 11 years ago, that phone had received a set of coordinate data. It was the same place in C city. In that case, seven years ago, that phone should have received another message. — thank you for telling me. Goodbye.”
Huo Shaoheng turned to leave cleanly. Bai Jinyi was dumbfounded behind him.
She hadn’t said anything important and only laughed a few times. How had this guy pieced together her source of information?!
Huo Shaoheng was absolutely right. Eleven years ago, Huo Guanyuan’s phone had received a set of coordinates for the first time.
In order to not let others know that Huo Guanyuan’s phone was with her, she had to study it secretly. However, after studying it for a long time in C city, she hadn’t been able to find anything, so she had given up.
It wasn’t until seven years ago that the phone with no signal suddenly received a call. Someone told her that at a certain time, a special magnetic field would appear somewhere in C city, and said that they would give her a big gift as long as Huo Shaoheng was present..
In the end, other than collecting a set of magnetic field data and a sudden car accident and explosion, she didn’t get any results.
Of course, if the orphan Gu Nianzhi was considered a gift, then she was definitely fooled.
Therefore, she did not mention this phone call to anyone.
“Huo Shaoheng! Come Back!”Bai Jinyi was anxious.
When Huo Shaoheng mentioned this, she remembered.
Seeing that Huo Shaoheng was in such a hurry and had specially come to visit them in prison, she immediately knew that this information was exactly what Huo Shaoheng and the others urgently needed. She immediately planned to find her niece, Bai Yueran, to discuss it and strive for a reduction in her sentence!
In the end, Huo Shaoheng immediately guessed the source of the information. She couldn’t possibly reduce her sentence!
However, Huo Shaoheng completely ignored her.
His uncle, Huo Guanyuan’s phone, was now in song Jinning’s hands. All Huo Shaoheng had to do was ask song jinning to borrow it.
As for Bai Jinyi’s pretentious attitude, did he think that he couldn’t tell that she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to reduce her sentence?
Haha, don’t think too highly of yourself.
After Huo Shaoheng left, Bai Jinyi was restless. She finally requested to see the Commissioner of the legal department in the Special Forces, Bai Yueran, claiming that she had important information to report.
She was reporting through the proper channels, and the Bai family was still at the pinnacle of power in Huaxia. The warden would not, could not, and did not dare to stop her.
..
“Bai Jinyi wants to see me? Did she say what she wants?”Bai Yueran received a call from the warden in her office. She put down her pen, turned her chair around, and looked at the large window that was half the height of a person in front of her. She frowned slightly. “Does she still have visitation time?”
According to the rules, the prisoners in the prison had a fixed visitation time. It was impossible for them to meet anyone they wanted at any time.
The warden looked at the rules and said, “Bai Jinyi does have some visiting time left, but this time she said that she has important clues to report and wants to reduce her sentence.”
“Well…”Bai Yueran pondered for a moment. “Wait a moment, I’ll see if I still have time.”
As the Commissioner of the legal department in the Special Forces, her schedule was also very busy.
She looked at her schedule. There was indeed an hour free this afternoon. She had originally planned to hold a meeting with the legal department to discuss future work needs.
However, Bai Jinyi said that she had important clues to report and wanted to make a meritorious contribution to reducing her sentence. This request could not be ignored.
She could hold meetings every day, but her aunt was someone who had already been sentenced to death. However, with a two-year reprieve, she could generally be reduced to life imprisonment.
Bai Jinyi’s crime had offended the Huo family, and Bai Yueran knew about it. She knew Huo Shaoheng’s personality and way of doing things, so he would never let Bai Jinyi go..
But what if Bai Jinyi had really reported a major clue that would benefit the country and the people?
There was also a precedent for felons in prison to receive a commuted sentence because they reported an important clue.
Bai Yueran hesitated for a moment, then said to the warden on the other end of the phone, “Then let’s do it today at four o’clock. Is it convenient for you?”
“It’s convenient. Then I’ll tell her that it’s four o’clock in the afternoon.”The warden made an appointment and politely said to Bai yueran, “See you in the afternoon.”Only then did he hang up.
Bai Yueran, however, could not continue working.
She packed her things and got up to look for her father, Bai Jiancheng.
Her father was now the Prime Minister of the Huaxia Empire.
Although she was the daughter of a country’s prime minister, she could not meet him whenever she wanted to.
It was impossible for her to be like the daughter of a country’s president, who could sit in his oval office and receive foreign guests with him.
The Huaxia Empire did not have this tradition even when there was an emperor.
She still waited outside the door obediently, waiting for her father to have afternoon tea for fifteen minutes.
“Yueran, why do you have time to look for me at This Hour?”Bai Jiancheng smiled and pushed a plate of vanilla French cupcakes in front of Bai Yueran. He said kindly, “Eat it. This is your favorite cake.”
Bai Yueran reached out and picked up a piece. She ate it in small bites. After finishing it, she said softly, “Aunt just had someone call me. She said that she has important news to report and wants to perform meritorious deeds to reduce her sentence.”
When Bai Jiancheng heard that it was Bai Jinyi’s news, he immediately frowned. “What other important news could she have? She’s not trying to trick you into pleading for mercy and reducing her sentence, right?”
Bai Yueran thought to herself that this was most likely the reason..
But what if Bai Jinyi really thought of some amazing clues?
This was also possible.
Bai Yueran was a lawyer, and she was also an excellent lawyer. She never let go of any useful clues.
“I’d better make a trip. It’s reasonable. I’ll go and see her. It’s not a big deal.”
Apart from official business, Bai Yueran was also Bai Jinyi’s family. They could not deliberately distance themselves from her just because she was now a prisoner.
In the eyes of ordinary people, they would not think that they were deliberately avoiding suspicion. Instead, they would think that they were impersonal.
Being impersonal was not a good thing for a prime minister who relied on the election to come to power.
Bai Yueran stood up and said seriously, “If there’s anything, I’ll report it to you immediately.”
Bai Jiancheng Thought for a moment and agreed. “Alright, no matter what, she’s your aunt. It’s only right to send her off.”
Bai Yueran nodded and left Bai Jiancheng’s office to the prison where Bai Jinyi was being held.
..
Bai Jinyi didn’t expect Bai Yueran to immediately agree to see her, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
She originally thought that ever since her big brother was elected as Prime Minister, he would draw a clear line between them.
So over the past year, she didn’t make any requests, and she didn’t dare to remind others that Bai Jiancheng had a sister who was a felon.
Although this matter had already been used by Bai Jiancheng’s political enemies during the general election, it was better to avoid it.
She was anxiously waiting in the prison visiting room. When she saw Bai Yueran walk in valiantly, Bai Jinyi stood up excitedly.
“Yueran! Long time no see!”
Bai Yueran glanced at Bai Jinyi, pulled out a chair and sat down. She said to Bai jinyi, “Please sit.”
Bai Jinyi sat down as well. Her arms rested on the long table in front of her. She leaned forward slightly and carefully examined her niece’s beautiful face. At the same time, she found that her left hand was still empty, not even a ring.
“… Yueran, you’re not married yet?”Bai jinyi frowned. “You’re not young anymore, are you?”
