Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1377 - Looks Especially Familiar

Chapter 1377: Looks Especially Familiar

What the prison was most afraid of weren’t external threats, but the riot of its own prisoners.

Fortunately, the Imperial Women’s Prison was occupied by female prisoners, so the biggest threat wasn’t there yet.

However, to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation, most of the strength of the prison guards would still be used towards the female prisoners in the prison.

The moment the prison alarm sounded, the capital police department and the Army received the news.

The riot police quickly assembled and rushed to the women’s prison at the foot of Yan Mountain, north of the capital.

The army was on standby, just in case.

Although the Special Operations Forces that Huo Shaoheng and the others were in were part of the army, they had always been handling overseas affairs. They would rarely come to them for domestic matters unless it involved overseas affairs.

However, because Xiao Ye and Gu Nianzhi were involved, the Special Operations Forces quickly received the news.

“Major General Huo, the Imperial Women’s Prison has just sounded a level one alarm. Something seems to have happened to Xiao Ye and the others.”

Yin Shixiong pushed open the door to the conference room and walked to Huo Shaoheng’s side. He lowered his head and whispered in his ear.

Because they couldn’t bring any electronic equipment with them during the meeting, Yin Shixiong was unable to inform Huo Shaoheng directly over the phone.

Huo Shaoheng’s expression didn’t change, but he had already raised his hand to end the meeting.

He stood up and said, “That’s all for today’s meeting. Write me a report on the rest, and we’ll discuss it next time.”

He left in a hurry with Yin Shixiong and jumped into Fan Jian’s car. He only brought a few elite men and rushed to the Imperial Women’s Prison.

“What’s going on?”

Huo Shaoheng finally had the time to ask Yin Shixiong about the situation while they were in the car.

Yin shixiong reported to him, “I just received an urgent message from Xiao Ye. She didn’t have the time to talk and only sent Mayday three times.”

He asked again, “Why did Xiao Ye go to the Imperial Women’s Prison?”

In their line of work, this was considered a serious distress signal, but it wasn’t the most serious.

Huo Shaoheng made up his mind and said, “Nianzhi brought Xiao Ye to the Imperial Women’s Prison today to confirm Luo Jialan’s death.”

Yin Shixiong was stunned. He patted his head and said in surprise, “Luo Jialan died? And then something happened in the prison?”

Huo Shaoheng looked out of the car window and said calmly, “Luo Jialan probably didn’t commit suicide. The other party used the news of Luo Jialan’s death as bait. The target was probably Nianzhi.”

“Luckily, Xiao Ye followed Nianzhi. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable...” Yin Shixiong clicked his tongue, but was relieved.

With Xiao Ye around, they really didn’t need to worry that much.

If they couldn’t even deal with a few thieves who had broken into the prison, Xiao Ye’s reputation as a “Night owl” would have been in vain.

..

In front of Luo Jialan’s cell in the prison, Xiao Ye had already taken the initiative.

The three people in Luo Jialan’s cell were all killed by her gun. Trying to escape while they were hiding, one of them rushed out with a semi-automatic modified gun.

Xiao Ye, on the other hand, was extremely strong. She rolled a few times and rushed to the person’s feet under the rain of bullets, then kicked the person’s crotch.

Covering his vital parts, the person’s reflexes made his arm go soft.

In the blink of an eye, his semi-automatic modified gun had been seized by Xiao Ye, and the situation was immediately reversed.

More and more prison guards were waiting to lend a hand in the prison. The riot police outside had also arrived, and the entire prison was surrounded.

By the time Huo Shaoheng arrived, they were already cleaning up the battlefield inside.

However, Xiao Ye was still very vigilant as she protected Gu Nianzhi and didn’t leave the scene for the time being.

This was because she didn’t trust everyone there. Unless Huo Shaoheng personally appeared, she would only hand Gu Nianzhi over to him.

That was her mission, and also her duty.

His expression impassive as usual, Huo Shaoheng walked along the long corridor of the prison. He listened to the warden’s report as he strode forward.

Only the slightly hurried footsteps indicated that he wasn’t in a relaxed mood.

Yin Shixiong led a few elite men to protect Huo Shaoheng from four directions and walked quietly beside him.

“... That’s right. We didn’t expect the outgoing call to be transferred. The forensics team that came wasn’t a real forensics team at all.”

The warden apologized to Huo Shaoheng awkwardly. “It’s all our fault. We didn’t investigate their identities in time and let them in.”

Huo Shaoheng didn’t blame him. The relevant departments would naturally come to hold him accountable for such a thing. He didn’t need to meddle in the matter. He merely asked calmly, “How’s the situation over there? How many casualties?”

“Four or five of our men were injured. They were all light injuries and didn’t die. Four of them were killed by lawyer Gu’s female bodyguards.”

The smile on Huo Shaoheng’s face disappeared in a flash.

He had indeed passed Gu Nianzhi to Xiao Ye without any mishaps.

However, even though he was mentally prepared, he still felt his heart clench slightly when he arrived in front of Luo Jialan’s cell and looked at the mess in front of him. There were potholes everywhere, and the walls were riddled with bullet holes.

He looked up and saw Xiao Ye standing at the door of the cell with a semi-automatic gun in her hand. Gu Nianzhi was tightly protected behind her. Huo Shaoheng stopped in his tracks. “It’s okay, I’m here to bring you guys back.”

Gu Nianzhi’s gaze lingered on Xiao Ye for a moment.

The situation today had been sudden but Gu Nianzhi was able to handle it. She wasn’t particularly afraid.

However, Xiao Ye’s attack had truly shocked Gu Nianzhi.

Not only was she swift and agile, but her every move was also very familiar to Gu Nianzhi!

She vaguely remembered that she had seen such outstanding skill somewhere before..

That was especially true when Xiao Ye had kicked the middle-aged female prison guard who was next to her away in the beginning. Then, she had hugged her and rolled on the ground to dodge the bullets. Gu Nianzhi immediately recalled the encounter in Tunguska, Siberia, Russia.

Gu Nianzhi looked Xiao Ye up and down seriously before nodding at Huo Shaoheng, who was approaching her. She said, “Major General Huo is here. I still have to go inside to confirm the cause of Luo Jialan’s death.”

She turned and walked into the cell.

Yin Shixiong rubbed his head in surprise. “Nianzhi, you’re getting bolder.”

Huo Shaoheng smiled and followed her in.

Xiao Ye didn’t go in and didn’t greet Yin Shixiong and the others. She raised the semi-automatic modified gun in her hand with a solemn expression and stopped Yin Shixiong and the others. “Stop. Who are you?”

Even though she knew Yin Shixiong, she was Gu Nianzhi’s “bodyguard” at the moment, so she shouldn’t have known Yin Shixiong.

Yin Shixiong also understood and didn’t show that he was familiar with her. He frowned and said, “The chief has gone in. I have to go in to protect his safety.” As he spoke, he showed Xiao Ye his ID.

Xiao Ye looked at his ID carefully before raising her gun to let them in.

Inside the prison cell, Luo Jialan was sitting on the floor with a plastic bag over her head. She had been dead for a long time.

Gu Nianzhi looked at her carefully and said, “From her body, it is indeed Luo Jialan, but we still have to conduct a DNA test to confirm her identity.”

Huo Shaoheng put his hands behind his back and responded. He called Yin Shixiong over to take a sample.

They shouldn’t have been the ones to do this, but if it hadn’t been for the fact that the forensic doctor had ambushed Gu Nianzhi today, Huo Shaoheng wouldn’t have interfered.

Now, they were just like Xiao Ye — they didn’t trust anyone in the prison.

“Major General Huo, do you think they let those people in by accident?” Yin Shixiong asked softly.

“Do you think I believed them?” Huo Shaoheng said calmly. He looked away and glanced at Gu Nianzhi. “Let’s go. I’ll leave this to Big Xiong.”
