That was when a messenger hurried his way into the storeroom.

Sir, the head has updates.

Huo Chen’s cold gaze swung upon him,
Say it.

The soldier wiped the sweat off his forehead,
The head—the head would like you to bring Sha Kang back to the country for trial. Immediately, sir.


…
Huo Chen’s eyes squinted in a menacing manner. The order only meant that he was not allowed to kill Sha Kang.



Sir! Sha Kang is already under arrest and we got our testimony too!
Interrupted Song Shou, fearing that his general would pull a gun and shoot the captive down,
We only need to bring him and this report to the country. Not only the head would call our operation a success, Sha Kang would definitely be given the capital punishment. So, sir, please! Please do not taint your glorious profile for an insult like this!

It was not worth it. Song Shou was right.

…
Huo Chen pondered.
Song Shou might be right with the testimony. Both Sha Kang and General Ai would be pinned down and eventually given the suited punishment but—it does not mean there won’t be anymore variables. I can’t risk freeing this criminal.

Sir!
Song Shou stopped Huo Chen’s pondering as he shouted at the top of his lungs,
This…This is also part of the military order!

He was implying that Huo Chen was still a military serviceman after all.
And to a soldier like him, a military order is stronger than anything, even justice.
Huo Chen then gave Song Shou a stare. A stare that sent chills down his spine. Song Shou did not regret his words however. It was all for the general’s good. His lips wriggled nervously and right when he thought the general would snap and toss the pen on him, Huo Chen lifted his gaze and glanced upon Sha Kang.

You better not hope for a chance to survive under my eyes. I did not kill you only because I fear tainting my own hands.

It was relieving to hear for Sha Kang. There was a brief smile from Sha Kang.


Hmph. Right. Not hoping for a chance to survive under your eyes? Pfft. You will never have a chance again after this.
Sha Kang was snickering in the shadow as he faced his head down when Huo Chen was leaving. But the vibration in Huo Chen’s pocket stopped him.

Sir!
Reported one man on the call,
We found a splash of dried blood and torn pieces of clothing near the cliff.
The statement did not ring well in Song Shou’s ears as he overheard the exchange.

There’s a label on the pieces and—well …


WHAT IS IT?


It’s the uniform your wife wore that day—The area near the cliff is a rocky path where wolves and snakes frequented and so—we suspected that …

The answer was obvious.
Wen He was probably engulfed by wolves or snakes.
SNAP!
The Galaxy Note turned deformed in Huo Chen’s grip. The brilliance of sanity faded away in Huo Chen’s eyes darker than the abyss as he staggered, about to fall, only to be held by Song Shou.


Wen He—how could you…
Wen He—Wen He…
WEN HE!
Wen He’s smiles, tears, frowns in different moments flashed rapidly in the man’s head. He could not calm down as the last bit of hope was snatched away from him. There were agony and regret oozing from his chest in return.
He saw the smile on Sha Kang as he clenched his fist. He dragged his steps towards the fallen man as he withdrew his pistol.

Sorry about what I’ve just said. I was wrong.

Sha Kang was flipped over with the muzzle pointed right at his heart.
You’re going to die anyway. How about I treat you a bullet?


Sir, no!
Song Shou ran towards Huo Chen. He wanted to seize away his pistol.
Sha Kang’s face was pale. His lips shook pitifully as he crawled backwards, shrieking,
You can’t kill me! General from Country Z, I beg you, I can tell you more things, I can-
