Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

Principal Chen, who was angry about what happened to Ye Jian’s mother, smiled coldly. ”His actions are a sign of guilt! It means that someone was secretly helping him.

”Just now, I said that Commissioner Cai from Tong Zhou Police Station suspected that Sun Xueqing was ’sacrificed’. I also said that all her achievements in the military unit were erased… Major Xia, with your intelligence, you should know why I didn’t say that I suspected Ye Zhifan.”

Xia Jinyuan’s expression was cold as he replied, ”Because you want to help Ye Jian lure out the murderer who killed her mother. You know that the murderer’s identity is not simple. That person has the ability to protect Ye Zhifan, turning him from a village officer to a provincial officer!”

At the mention of Ye Zhifan, waves appeared in the young major’s dark eyes. ”I investigated Ye Zhifan a long time ago and found out that there was someone behind him. However, I didn’t manage to find anything. This means that the person’s identity is not simple. They’re hiding it very well!

”There’s one more thing I need to tell you. Ye Zhifan has already made contact with our enemy, the Du family. Staff Officer Du and my father had a conflict when they were young.”

Staff Officer!

Principal Chen, whose expression changed drastically, asked in surprise, ”Staff Officer”

”Yes, the staff officer, but he’s in the deputy position.” Xia Jinyuan nodded. He pressed his thin lips tightly, and the coldness in his eyes became deeper. ”It’s quite surprising that he has a relationship with the Du family.”

”Staff Officer Du’s eldest son, Du Kaiwei, is the regimental commander of a brigade in the Nanguang Military District. After participating in a mission to clean up the village, he was targeted by others. He went out for a meal one day and was suddenly attacked by people with daggers. He was saved by Ye Zhifan, who was eating with him.

”I heard that if Ye Zhifan hadn’t blocked the dagger, the other party would’ve cut Du Kaiwei’s neck and killed him on the spot.”

”You already know about the jade pendant now. I have some doubts about this huge coincidence… Is it really a coincidence? Or was it arranged by someone?”

”It’s too coincidental for him to have saved the eldest son of Staff Officer Du, who’s at odds with our Xia family.”

Principal Chen, who had been through a lot, couldn’t help but take a deep breath. ”You mean… the person behind the jade knows that the Du family and the Xia family don’t get along, so he deliberately let Ye Zhifan get involved with the Du family?”

”Yes, I didn’t think about it before this. I was only suspicious because you mentioned the jade pendant. When Ye Jian was adopted by Ye Zhifan’s family, she was always scolded and beaten up. They raised a smart girl as though she was useless.

”Uncle Chen, what does this mean? Someone ordered Ye Zhifan to raise Ye Jian!

”They deliberately got the comrade who was in the same army unit as Sun Xueqing to tell Commissioner Cai that Ye Jian fell into the water and died young because that person didn’t want others to know of Ye Jian’s existence.

”However, that person was worried and had no choice but to keep Ye Jian. Even so, he was very unwilling. Even if he kept her, he only wanted to see Ye Jian become useless. Hence, he asked Ye Zhifan to make Ye Jian useless.”

Xia Jinyuan was terrifying. His logical thinking and analytical ability were too sharp. As long as he caught on to something and as long as he strung everything together, nothing would be missed by him.

But these were just things that Principal Chen and Commissioner Cai said. Even so, when combined with Xia Jinyuan’s guesses that came out of his mouth one sentence after another, it wasn’t a fantasy. It was a logical analysis.
