Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 322 - 321: "Sir, Guess What’s Inside These Boxes.
Father Lin and Lin Chushi were stunned when they heard this.
Could it be real?
That drug cartel was really hiding on Huan Sha Island and was captured by Chen Han and Sheng Zexi.
Then, what is their purpose here?
The expressions of the father and son instantly became grim.
Mr. Lu nodded, looking at Sheng Zexi and Chen Han with great satisfaction.
He knew that if Old Sheng was willing to speak, his son was definitely reliable.
And he chose to believe in them.
When Chen Han and Sheng Zexi mentioned that the drug cartel had planted timed explosives on Huan Sha Island, it made everyone’s hearts race.
At this moment, their subordinates started returning one after another.
A crate was also brought up.
"These are the bombs planted by the drug cartel on Huan Sha Island, and they number around thirty."
"All of them were timed to explode at midnight tonight."
"Many bombs were also buried in the bustling areas."
"Now we have discovered and disarmed them all."
"Mr. Lu, in this matter, the dog from Ze Xi’s family was incredible, even better than the military dogs of our troop. These bombs were all found by their dog."
Chen Han was quite excited as he mentioned this.
Sheng Zexi’s gaze involuntarily flickered towards the Lin father and son.
"Fortunately, these bombs were dismantled in time; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable, wouldn’t you say, Commander Lin?"
As Sheng Zexi spoke, the expressions of Lin Chushi and his father darkened even more.
Especially Lin Chushi, his face sank.
He could hear the insinuation.
Was Sheng Zexi referring to his refusal to allow Chen Han to approve troop deployments in the afternoon?
At this moment, Lin Chushi was full of regret.
He never expected that the troop’s intelligence failed to identify that the drug cartel was hiding on Huan Sha Island.
Or that they had planted so many bombs.
More than thirty bombs were hidden all over Huan Sha Island, set to explode at midnight tonight.
Yet, they had not received any information about it.
If not for Sheng Zexi’s timely action, would they have had to wait until the bombs exploded to find out?
Wouldn’t Huan Sha Island have been destroyed?
The casualties among the island’s inhabitants would also have been severe.
He wasn’t particularly concerned about civilian casualties.
But if anything happened to Huan Sha Island and its people, the troop would certainly face heavy punishment.
Thinking of this made Lin Chushi shudder with fear.
It could be said that Sheng Zexi had helped them avert a major crisis.
But...
Lin Chushi felt no gratitude towards Sheng Zexi.
He even harbored some resentment towards him.
Sheng Zexi, certain that the drug cartel was on Huan Sha Island and had discovered the bombs,
Why didn’t he report it directly to him or his father?
Instead, he bypassed them and went straight to Mr. Lu.
Taking all the credit for himself.
Lin Chushi knew how ruthless this drug cartel was and recognized the significance of capturing them.
But he also knew this wasn’t the time for such thoughts.
He forced a smile, saying through gritted teeth,
"Heh, it’s just that I didn’t get the message."
"If I had known, I would have given the order long ago to capture these people." Lin Chushi defended himself.
Sheng Zexi kept a slight eyebrow raised, the corners of his mouth twisting in mockery, "So, Commander Lin, would you say I misused military power?"
Lin Chushi: Does Sheng Zexi have to keep harping on about this?
"No, of course not," Lin Chushi said through gritted teeth.
Then why did he and his father wait here until midnight? What was the point?
At this moment, Lin Chushi felt like a fool.
And he harbored deep resentment towards Sheng Zexi.
Previously, it was because Sheng Zexi was favored by his young wife that he felt jealous and unwilling.
Now, it was all resentment.
And he also thought Sheng Zexi was incredibly lucky.
How coincidental was it that the drug cartel really was hiding on Huan Sha Island, and they found the bombs they planted?
Allowing Chen Han and Sheng Zexi to make merit.
Lucky, truly lucky.
Lin Chushi looked towards his father.
Father Lin also didn’t look pleased.
When Lin Chushi looked over, he cast a slight glance at him, the blame in his eyes obvious.
Of course, it wasn’t for not approving the order in the afternoon.
But for allowing Sheng Zexi and the others to turn the tables on them.
In this situation, how could he bring down this Mr. Lu?
Useless thing!
"Haha, it seems it was all a misunderstanding."
"No problem, as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up." Father Lin said with a smile, despite the blame he felt towards his son.
Though not very smart, he was still his son and had to be defended.
Neither Chen Han nor Sheng Zexi said anything.
Even Mr. Lu remained silent.
Actually, Lin Chushi’s issue wasn’t particularly big or small.
In a serious view, his refusal could have delayed military efforts, possibly leading to significant casualties, which warranted punishment.
In a less serious view, he simply wasn’t aware, and nothing bad ultimately happened, as it was stopped in time.
Ultimately, Mr. Lu imposed a penalty on Lin Chushi that was neither light nor heavy.
Just a recorded demerit.
Lin Chushi didn’t expect to be given a demerit.
He wanted to argue, but seeing his father’s expression, he held back.
Father Lin knew Mr. Lu’s punishment was actually lenient.
If the matter was taken further, the punishment for Chushi would have been more severe than this.
Yet Father Lin remained resentful.
It seemed that this Lu fellow already knew what was going on.
Intentionally setting a trap for them, father and son.
Crafty, truly crafty!
"Alright, it’s late now; let’s leave it at this for now and discuss the details tomorrow," Mr. Lu spoke.
"No, Mr. Lu, there’s more, and it’s very important!" Chen Han quickly stopped Mr. Lu from leaving.
Just then, the soldiers carrying the crates arrived.
Mr. Lu and the others saw the large crates.
"What’s this?" Mr. Lu was puzzled.
"Sir, you wouldn’t believe it, but Ze Xi’s Thunder was incredible."
"Just when we thought all the bombs were dismantled, Thunder sniffed out more explosives on Huan Sha Island..."
Chen Han animatedly recounted the events just moments ago.
"...and we really fished out several large crates from the sea."
"These crates were left behind when R country’s army retreated."
"What!"
Both Mr. Lu and Lin father and son were utterly shocked.
They were left behind by R country’s army during their retreat.
What could be inside these crates?
"Sir, guess what’s inside," Chen Han teased, casting a glance at the Lin father and son.
Hmph, this achievement is sure to make you envious.
