Chapter 52

“There is still no news about the people who ambushed us now. The dead body of the traitor at Zuo Bo’s prison has already been dissected. The training traces on his body can’t tell lies, so maybe we can find some clues form those traces and further speculate where he had been trained before.”

At He Jingyan’s office, Long Chen explained after handing the documents to He Jingyan.

“Where was the poison hidden?” He Jingyan suddenly asked while reading through the documents.

“Well. He probably had thought he would fail, so he had hidden the toxic capsule in his mouth in advance.” ‘However, it is strange that how could he hide it for such a long time? When I questioned him, he didn’t show any sign for committing suicide; instead, he acted like he would be saved and alive. Was there anything wrong during the process? Or was it just because that man was good at hiding his mood and succeeded in tricking us? But how can the clues have less connection and be so unreasonable?’

He Jingyan suddenly curved up his lips. “There is no troop playing the trick to swallow poison in advance. Only the spy in the past would use such an extreme method.” ‘Is there really someone doing this? Did he do this for misleading our judgement? Or is it because that he had no choice but be force to do it? Is it because my opponents want him dead?’

“It seems that our opponents are very meticulous about it. They would spend all costs to kill such an insignificant subordinate who could give no clues.” ‘No matter what it is, we still can collect more clues as long as they continue sending spies here. Bring it on, my opponents.’

He Jingyan showed no fear to his opponents; instead, he put on a fearless expression. It was quite hard to understand what he was thinking, but he might have his own plans!

Seeing the expression of He Jingyan, Long Chen knew that He Jingyan was ready for a fight, so he smiled, “No matter they are devils or just ineffective troops, let’s wait and see.”

Long Chen touched the sword on his waist and got ready for the fight as well. To them, the more powerful their enemies were, the more competitive and aggressive they would be.

However unlike them, Nan Xiao standing aside didn’t look good and he seemed to be scared.

At this moment, He Jingyan suddenly passed the documents to him and said, “You have already been adjutant for a year. You are supposed to deal with this stuff. Read it first and then tell us your suggestions.”

Nan Xiao quivered but instantly took the documents. Looking at the multiple documents and the anatomy of human, Nan Xiao felt extremely nervous; even his hands were shaking.

‘Is it possible to speculate the training experience of a soldier just from his body dissection?’ Nan Xiao suddenly narrowed his eyes and then carefully looked at the documents. However, the more he read, the heavier he felt in his mind.

Long Chen sat on the sofa and glanced at Nan Xiao. He said, “You are supposed to sort out the documents going forward, and you should get familiar with it as soon as possible so as to ease my burdens.” Long Chen had no expression on his face, so no one could tell what’s in his mind.

So did He Jingyan. He showed nothing strange on his face and the expression he had always shown in front of Xu Yangyi completely faded away, which exert a domineering pressure on others.

Nan Xiao closed the documents and obeyed. He told Long Chen that he would get familiar with these works as soon as possible. Then he saluted He Jingyan and Long Chen and finally left.

Looking at Nan Xiao who closed the door, Long Chen cast a glance at He Jingyan with delight. “What do you think about the probability of our success?” he suddenly said this.

Hearing that, He Jingyan also cracked a smile and said, “Who knows?” His answer was ambiguous but filled with amusement.
