Special Forces Medic-Chapter 712 - 679 Anonymous Letter

"My written report?" Secretary Luo's question doesn't weigh much in this whole case, but with Xiao Lin's keen senses, he understood Secretary Luo's hesitation, because these words aren't something just anyone dares to say. Even Hua Muyun wouldn't dare to casually utter these two words. "Dragon Soul's internal written report was faxed to Yan Juanjuan's hands."

Secretary Luo nodded. "I saw your report with my own eyes. Yan Juanjuan took advantage of the 'This person should be killed' phrase in your report to make a big fuss outside, nearly causing public anger, and showing contempt for the domineering group that Dragon Soul represents. This can be big or small, so I was wondering if your identity on this trip to the North District could be adjusted."

"I understand." Xiao Lin bowed his head and pondered for a moment. "Uncle Hua, could you issue a nomination notification, appointing Hua Qingyi to represent you in the investigation, accompanied by a sword from above? Of course, you can supplement the sword later; we'll try not to use it."

"Issuing a nomination notification may take a day; Qing Yi..."

"Uncle Hua need not worry about Qing Yi's identity. As long as it's approved by a vote in the committee, the document can be issued."

"I will hold a meeting tomorrow morning, using Secretary Luo's unfortunate encounter as an excuse..."

"You can't enter!" A sudden dispute came from outside. Xiao Lin glanced at Hua Qingyi, then quietly walked to the door.

Wang Zhanting pulled at his tie; though it's only June, the heat is already suffocating. He carried a fruit basket, sweating, unable to understand why the old man dragged people to such a godforsaken place. Isn't there a hospital in the city center? Why come to some military district?

"I'm here to visit the secretary-general."

"I'm sorry, Minister Wang! You are not on Secretary Luo's visitor list; we cannot let you enter." Two soldiers standing at the door stared straight ahead, blocking the entrance with their bodies.

"Visitor list?" Wang Zhanting stared in surprise at the two soldiers standing like wooden statues. It's said not to mess with soldiers, especially those newly enlisted in the army, as their minds are brainwashed.

No one answered his question. The two soldiers maintained the same stance at the door. "Could you please go inside and let them know I'm here to visit him?"

"I'm sorry, you are not on the list!"

Feeling snubbed, Wang Zhanting resisted his anger, glancing at the soldiers' badge numbers. They were Lu Yihang's men.

"Who is it, brother!" Hua Qingyi also quietly came over.

"It's Wang Zhanting." Xiao Lin watched the man standing outside with amusement, seeing his face turn green with fury.

"Let him in; let's see what he wants to do." Hua Muyun nodded in assent, letting him in. Hua Qingyi returned to sit by Secretary Luo's bedside.

"Alright!" After waiting a few seconds, Xiao Lin opened the door with a sudden movement. "What's all the noise about?"

"Young Master Xiao!" A soldier saluted Xiao Lin. "Minister Wang requests to see Secretary Luo, but he is not on the visitor list, so we cannot let him enter."

"You did the right thing!" Upon hearing this, Wang Zhanting was about to burst out; he'd never been subjected to such embarrassment, being thwarted several times by this person. "When we're around, you can report, but when Secretary Luo is alone, you must strictly adhere to principles, understood?"

"Yes, Young Master Xiao, we will keep that in mind next time."

"Minister Wang, please come inside. Brother Luo just woke up." Xiao Lin now smiled kindly at Wang Zhanting. "Sorry about that; these two are new recruits, just started their tasks, not very adept at dealing with people yet. Don't take it to heart; arguing with green recruits would be embarrassing if word gets out."

"Why would I argue with green recruits? Young Master Xiao, you think too highly of me." Wang Zhanting entered the room with the fruit basket, surprised to see Hua Muyun and his son, but quickly beamed with a smile.

"Secretary Hua is here too!"

"Zhan Ting, why are you here too?" Hua Muyun sat on the sofa, showing no intention to stand up.

"I heard about Secretary Luo's traffic accident, so I came to visit." Wang Zhanting placed the fruit on the table. "This place is really hard to find!"

"Thank you, Minister Wang, for your concern; you're so busy but still made time to visit, I'm truly embarrassed." Secretary Luo sat on the bed, smiling apologetically.

"You okay? How could such a short drive lead to an accident?" Wang Zhanting didn't pay attention to Hua Qingyi and sat on the chair beside the bed, holding Secretary Luo's hand in his palm. "Your hand is so cold; is the medical care here insufficient? Should you transfer to a city hospital where conditions might be better?"

"No need, thank you! It's not serious, just wanted a quiet place to rest for a couple of days."

"Are you sure you don't need it? I'm ready to arrange for you anytime." Wang Zhanting's excessive attentiveness made people uncomfortable.

"Secretary Hua, have you found the offender?" Wang Zhanting asked Hua Muyun.

"The offender hasn't been caught, but we found the car's brakes were tampered with, which is a malicious incident."

"The car was tampered with? Did Secretary Luo have any enmities in the North District?" Wang Zhanting directly pointed the conflict towards the North District.

"I don't know either; I haven't met anyone in the North District aside from District Chief Yao and President Yan, and it seems only you, Minister Wang."

"Hey? You don't suspect it's me, do you?" Wang Zhanting immediately burst into laughter.

"No, no, how could I suspect you? It's just that you asked who I've seen, and it just came up." Secretary Luo laughed along too.

"Zhanting, have you been to the northern district?"

"Yes! I even ran into Yao Zheng in his office that day." Wang Zhanting nodded and, without waiting for Hua Muyun to ask more questions, continued talking by himself. "It's just that I've recently received several anonymous letters concerning Dragon Soul's private dealings with Han Fei, causing quite a headache on my end, so I wanted to go understand the situation. Young Master Xiao was there too. Could you tell me what's going on so I can have an explanation?"

"Zhanting, you came at the right time. I just decided to have Qing Yi represent me and go to the northern district to investigate Secretary Luo's case, with Xiao Lin accompanying her as a helper and bodyguard."

"Hiss! That's not appropriate!" Upon hearing this, Wang Zhanting immediately frowned. "Secretary Hua, although Qing Yi is being groomed as your successor, this is not a trivial matter. The other side clearly knew Secretary Luo's identity and still dared to act, evidently not putting the city committee in their eyes. Qing Yi is still young, and I'm afraid he can't bear the weight of such a significant case!"

"Then, who do you think is more suitable?" Hua Muyun asked calmly.

"I have some ties with Yao Zheng, so why not let me give it a try?" Wang Zhanting recommended himself.

"Why is Zhanting so focused on this event?"

"Not saying that, just heard that you're sending Qing Yi to handle this matter, and I feel it might not convince everyone!"

"Tomorrow I will hold a meeting to hear everyone's thoughts. Personally, I don't think anyone is more suitable than him. It's a good opportunity for him to gain some experience, and isn't there you by his side for support? With your connections with Yao Zheng, it should be convenient, right?"

"Hehehe!" Wang Zhanting chuckled. "Since Secretary Hua said so, I will certainly back Qing Yi."

"Then I'll thank Uncle Wang here." Hua Qingyi seized the opportunity to make a firm statement, leaving Wang Zhanting no room to retreat.

"It's getting late, so I won't disturb Secretary Luo's rest anymore." Wang Zhanting stood up. "Young Master Xiao, can you escort me out?"

"This way!" Xiao Lin heard and stepped out first.

Wang Zhanting followed Xiao Lin all the way to the door before stopping. "Young Master Xiao, shall we have a chat?"

"What does Uncle Wang want to talk about?" Xiao Lin lit a cigarette, looking at Wang Zhanting.

"It's purely private." Wang Zhanting had a look of uncertainty about where to start.

"About what?"

"My nephew passed away, and my older brother has been feeling down and recently wants to travel abroad."

"That's good news!"

"Right, I agree it's good news, but he hopes I will accompany him."

"Oh, then just go. What does it have to do with me?" Xiao Lin didn't understand Wang Zhanting's intention.

"Take a look at this!" Wang Zhanting mysteriously pulled out an envelope from his bag, and Xiao Lin opened it to read.

"This is an anonymous letter, and it seems to be talking about me!"

"Hmm, I've been receiving these things lately, and really don't know how to handle them. You're from the Xiao Family, so I'm hesitant to report it." Wang Zhanting rubbed his hands in distress.

"Does Uncle Wang believe what's said in it?" Seeing the cut-out font from a newspaper made him find it amusing.

"Of course, I don't believe it. Just..."

"If Uncle Wang doesn't believe it, then it's just waste paper. But if you have doubts, you can have someone verify it. I think it's not a big deal."

"I naturally trust you, but at that time, everyone in Yanjing knew about the incident where you and my nephew fought over a woman! Now there's something about the police, this, this..."

"I appreciate Uncle Wang's good intentions. This matter doesn't bother me and won't affect my mindset in protecting Hua Qingyi in the northern district. You can leave it to the city committee to handle, as long as Uncle Wang doesn't feel troubled."

"I see! I'll keep that in mind." Wang Zhanting returned the anonymous letter to his bag and got into the car waiting outside. "Then I'll go first, you head back in!"

"Uncle Wang, take care. Thank you for coming specifically to inform me."

"You go inside!" The car emitted exhaust and slowly drove out of the military district. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
