Hello, Mr. Major General Chapter 1712

Chapter 1712 - Harder to Deal than the KGB

Huo Shaoheng stood in front of her, holding a small test tube and a few yellowed papers in his hand, as if he had torn them out of a notebook.

Gu Nianzhi looked up.

Her eyes were as clear as crystal, and she looked calm and peaceful, without the slightest emotion.

However, from Huo Shaoheng’s point of view, he could see the concern and worry hidden deep in her eyes.

In fact, she had hidden it so deeply that if it hadn’t been for the fact that it had happened so suddenly, she wouldn’t have had time to hide the expression in her eyes, and even Huo Shaoheng wouldn’t have been able to tell what she was really thinking.

Her gaze slowly slid down from Huo Shaoheng’s perfect and chisseled jaw to the hand that Huo Shaoheng had extended.

It was this pair of almost flawless hands that had once swayed her..

Gu Nianzhi’s mind suddenly wandered.

Perhaps she should ask Huo Shaoheng how he took care of his hands?

However, this was only a fleeting thought.

Gu Nianzhi quickly came back to her senses and her gaze fell on the two things in Huo Shaoheng’s hands.

She did not reach out to take them. Instead, she quietly looked at them for a while and said, “What are these?”

“They’re test tubes and experimental designs!” Lu Jin rushed to say, as if he was eager to “redeem himself”. “The test tubes are the results of my experimental design. Those few pieces of paper are my experimental designs from back then.”

Gu Nianzhi nodded and lowered her eyes to write a few words on her phone. She then asked Huo Shaoheng, “You found it in Ishihara Baisan’s room? Where in his room?”

Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed with a hint of admiration and he said lightly,”… it’s next to the body where he committed seppuku.”

Gu Nianzhi quickly reacted,”… it’s next to him? Why isn’t there any blood?”

“Because Ishihara Baisan was very accurate in estimating the direction of the blood flow when he cut the abdomen,” Lu Jin added in an academic manner, “For people who often conduct animal experiments, they should have a good understanding of the consequences of each cut, where the blood will flow from, and where it will end up.”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

“That’s not the point,” Gu Nianzhi said lightly, silently ignoring Lu Jin’s “desperate for praise” look.

Lu Yuan, who had followed Huo Shaoheng in, couldn’t help laughing when he heard this.

Lu Jin turned to see him and said angrily, “Boss Lu, why aren’t you cooking?! You’ve already slacked off and stopped cooking breakfast. You’re not going to stop us from eating lunch, are you?!”

Lu Yuan knew that he was venting his anger, so he didn’t take it to heart. He smiled and said, “I’m just here to cook lunch.”

He nodded at Gu Nianzhi. “Nianzhi, interrogate your father properly. He’s not afraid of anything. No one can handle him.” With that, he turned and left the living room to go to the kitchen.

Huo Shaoheng had a listening device on him anyway. Lu Yuan could connect to his listening device through the Internet and hear the conversation in the living room, so he didn’t have to stay here all the time.

Gu Nianzhi heard Lu Yuan’s words and glanced at Lu Jin from the corner of her eyes.

Lu Jin sat up straight and lowered his head to say, “I’m not. I’m not. Don’t talk nonsense.”

Gu Nianzhi held back her laughter and said to Lu Yuan’s back, “Thank you, President Lu. I want to eat San Xian fried rice for lunch.”

Lu Yuan stumbled, but he quickly walked to the kitchen and closed the translucent glass sliding door.

“You’re being naughty again.” Huo Shaoheng glanced at Gu Nianzhi and silently mouthed.

Gu Nianzhi did not look at him, but continued to look at her father, Lu Jin.

“Dad, I believe that you’re fearless.” Gu Nianzhi said seriously, “President Lu isn’t talking nonsense, but I still hope that you have some respect, for example, respect for law and order.”

Lu Jin lowered his head even more.

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t bear to do this.

She didn’t want to push Lu Jin too far, but if she think about it carefully, there were too many questions. If she didn’t figure it out, she would be too passive.

Especially since Ishihara Baisan held Qin Yaoguang in high esteem. Gu Nianzhi always felt that whenever Qin Yaoguang was involved, she had to put in 120% of her energy to deal with it.

Therefore, she poured Lu Jin a glass of milk. “Dad, you haven’t had breakfast yet. Drink some milk first.”

Lu Jin quickly took a big gulp to calm himself down.

Gu Nianzhi watched as Lu Jin finished his milk, she then continued to ask, “Since these two items are the best evidence to expose Ishihara Baisan’s plagiarism, why would he protect them so unscathed? Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t he try to destroy these two items?”

“Or rather, even if he doesn’t destroy them, why would he carefully estimate which areas around him are the most conspicuous and not stained with blood when he would commit seppuku?”

Gu Nianzhi raised a series of questions.

The corners of Lu Jin’s mouth twitched twice, and his eyes darted between Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng.

Did the two of them really not talk to each other?

Why did they even have the same angle of analysis?

Lu Jin felt like he was an outsider at the moment. He couldn’t squeeze into their world no matter what..

Didn’t they say they had someone else in mind?

Didn’t they say they had a fiancé in that world?

Looking at their tacit understanding, it seemed like they had been together for many years..

As expected of their counterparts. could they even synchronize their thoughts and feelings?

Lu Jin thought sourly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he owed not only his daughter, but also himself, for being separated from his daughter for so many years.

Gu Nianzhi ignored Lu Jin’s little tantrum and looked at Huo Shaoheng inquisitively.

“… I think he was informing someone.” Huo Shaoheng analyzed, “As you said, that position is indeed the most conspicuous. As long as an outsider comes in, they can see it immediately.”

Gu Nianzhi suddenly understood, “So that’s how it is.”

She stood up and paced back and forth in the living room, she said excitedly, “Ishihara Baisan knew that committing seppuku would definitely cause a huge news effect. After all, it was the first day of the New Year, and he was a foreign scientist who had just attended the Spring Festival Gala.”

“He used this method to inform his own partner. But, what kind of message was he trying to send? Could it be that he was going to inform his partner that he had plagiarized?” Gu Nianzhi frowned and muttered to herself, she crossed her arms and stood in front of the window, shaking her head in denial. “No, that can’t be right. Could it be…”

Gu Nianzhi suddenly turned around and saw Lu Jin staring at her back in a daze.

“Could it be that through this incident, he thinks… Gu Xiangwen isn’t actually dead?” Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jin in confusion.

Lu Jin quickly looked away and shook his head. “I’m not sure about that. I called him to tell him that Gu Xiangwen had given these things to me before he died. I didn’t say that I was Gu Xiangwen.”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She walked over and leaned against Lu Jin’s feet, she looked up at him and smiled. “Dad, if you can deduce the truth from some clues, others can too – especially people like Ishihara Baisan. He copied your experimental design…”

Gu Nianzhi paused and suddenly thought of another question.

“Dad, how long has Ishihara Baisan been copying your experimental design?”

“At least 30 years.” Lu Jin thought for a moment and said calmly, “I don’t remember it very clearly.”

“Look, you don’t even remember how many years it has been. How could Ishihara Baisan react so quickly when he saw these few pages of notes?” Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng in confusion. “And he was able to commit seppuku right away?”

Huo Shaoheng frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, “That’s a good question. I didn’t even think about it.”

Lu Jin tried his best to maintain a calm expression, but his back was already sweating slightly.

The Committee of State Security (KGB) was even more difficult to deal with than his own daughter..

Gu Nianzhi’s gaze quickly fell on Lu Jin again.

Although Lu Jin looked no different from before, upon closer inspection, she could still see the fine beads of sweat on his forehead and hairline. His arms were trembling slightly, as if he had Parkinson’s disease..

Gu Nianzhi held Lu Jin’s hand gently and firmly. What was he afraid of?

However, Gu Nianzhi could not bear to see Lu Jin like this. She really did not want to continue questioning him.

Today was the first day of the New Year. After so many years, this was the first time they were spending the new year together. They could not allow Ishihara Baisan to lead them astray..

Gu Nianzhi smiled and changed the topic. “Forget it. Maybe Ishihara Baisan has been feeling guilty about the plagiarism incident, so when he saw these few pages of notes, he thought, oh no, the other boot is finally on the ground…”

“Actually, he’s up to no good, isn’t he?” Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook Lu Jin’s arm.

Lu Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded hurriedly. “Yes, yes, yes, that’s it! That’s it!”

He stood up as he spoke. “Nianzhi, I’ve prepared a gift for you. I’ll bring it to you!”
