Chapter 812: Escape
Think about it. What if the person who went past the passage was a spy? Although he did not have any bombs or guns on him, what if he damaged the passage after crossing over? What would the rest of the people do?
The rescue ladder could not reach the 57th floor. Would that not mean that they could only wait to be engulfed by the fire?
The two people at the front of the line went down the stairs to the passage. Then, under Chi Yang’s constant urging, they reached the other side safely and quickly.
After reaching the other side, they still followed Chi Yang’s orders. They climbed up the stairs and reached the 57th floor of Block A. Then, without a single glance to the back, they rushed in.
On the other side, there were already people from the military base waiting for them.
Seeing that male guests were starting to descend the building safely, the military police officers heaved a huge sigh of relief.
If these reputable personages truly died here, the Jiang District military base and the police would be in deep trouble.
Under Chi Yang’s inspection and threat, the evacuation came to an orderly end.
“Duke Eton, Aiden, head over there.”
Aiden frowned slightly. Big Boss wanted him to stay and help Chi Yang! How could he leave?
However, Chi Yang’s words were absolute. After winking repeatedly at him to ask if Chi Yang wanted him to stay behind to help, Chi Yang acted as though he did not see Aiden. He did not even return Aiden’s glances. Thus, Eden could do nothing but leave with Duke Eton.
Then, it was the uncle and nephew, Xiao Shenbin and Xiao Wensheng’s turn.
In the end, only Chi Yang, Leng Jinpeng, Qu Mingyi, Peng Yaohua, and Luo Shangyi were left.
“I don’t want to leave with Luo Shangyi! He has tried to assassinate the Commander-in-chief so many times! What if he’s in a bad mood and tries to assassinate me halfway? What can I do then?”
Since there were no outsiders here, Peng Yaohua was not afraid of being overheard. He immediately expressed his stance.
Luo Shangyi also snorted coldly. “Who wants to go with you? If I were really a spy, I would rather assassinate Chi Yang than you!”
“You...”
“That’s enough!” Qu Mingyi reprimanded coldly. “We are all major generals. How can we argue in front of a respectable crowd? No matter who the spy is, write me a 30000-word reflection first when we get back!”
Qu Mingyi was a political commissar, so even the major generals of the military base had to obey his teachings on political ideology.
After hearing Qu Mingyi’s shouts, the two of them did not dare to speak again.
Qu Mingyi turned to Luo Shangyi and said, “Shangyi, come with me.”
Luo Shangyi nodded and was about to say “okay” when Chi Yang stopped him.
“Commissar Qu, this arrangement isn’t quite appropriate. Deputy Commander Luo is the first to bear the brunt of this incident. Even if he isn’t a spy—like Deputy Commander Peng said—he’s the one who’s in charge of all the arrangements. That still makes him the biggest suspect.”
Qu Mingyi thought about it and nodded. “Alright, you make the arrangements and we’ll obey.”
Chi Yang was someone who the Commander-in-chief appointed, after all. Additionally, Qu Mingyi had always been on Leng Jinpeng’s side. Thus, he agreed right away.
“Although we haven’t found any spies, it’s obvious that one of the five of us is a spy. I’m not afraid to tell you that I’ve been specially sent by the higher-ups to investigate this matter, so Leng Jinpeng and I are definitely not the traitors. The remaining suspects are only Commissar Qu, Deputy Commander Peng, and Deputy Commander Luo.”
