Chapter 357 A Cover-Up That Only Makes It More Convincing; A Vicious Heart
As it turned out, the courtyard gate was not locked, and the main gate was also missing.
"Commander Lu, the gate here isn't locked either!" the guard said, turning his head.
Chief Lu felt that something was wrong.
He wanted Su Niannian to stay at the gate while he went to check on the situation.
But Su Niannian insisted on coming along.
"Girl, then you stay with me. If there's any danger, you run first," Commander Lu said, turning to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian smiled and nodded.
Although Chief Lu is not my elder, he is like one to me.
Even when there is danger, they still prioritize their own safety.
Su Niannian felt that Chief Lu was really good; her spiritual spring water and her efforts had not been in vain.
It's all as it should be.
Seeing that Su Niannian was being perfunctory, Chief Lu gave another guard a look.
The guard understood instantly and nodded.
However, if danger really occurs, the guards will still prioritize protecting Chief Lu.
Because protecting Chief Lu is my duty.
Chief Lu took the flashlight in his hand and strode inside.
Once inside, it was completely dark.
The guard touched the doorway, trying to turn on the indoor lights.
I found the light cord without any problem, but it didn't budge no matter how many times I tugged on it.
"The light must be broken," the guard said to Commander Lu beside him.
"Let's go in and take a look," said Commander Lu.
As a result, they entered the two-story building in the order of guard, Chief Lu, guard, and Su Niannian.
The group consisted of either seasoned soldiers or the perceptive Su Niannian.
As soon as they entered the room, they smelled blood.
"The smell of blood is strong, be careful," Commander Lu warned.
The two guards were now on high alert.
Everyone had a flashlight and they searched room by room.
The layout of this two-story building is almost identical to that of Chief Lu's house.
Therefore, both the guards and the old commander Lu were very familiar with him.
There were only three rooms on the first floor, and after checking them, we found nothing.
So where does this bloody smell come from?
When they reached the living room on the first floor, the flashlight beam shone on them.
A large patch of blood.
Even the carpet was stained with blood.
A person was leaning against a wheelchair by the window.
Upon seeing this, Chief Lu frowned and cautiously walked in that direction.
Shining the flashlight over, they discovered that Chief Miao's forehead was bleeding.
There was also a pool of blood on the ground.
Chief Lu reached out and checked his breath.
“He’s still breathing,” Chief Lu said. Su Niannian, who was standing nearby, immediately reached out to take Chief Miao’s pulse.
As a result, the pulse was weak.
Su Niannian extended two fingers and pressed them on the neck of Chief Miao, where the pulse was weak.
"I'm not faking it, I'm really injured!" Su Niannian said.
"Can you save his life?" Chief Lu asked Su Niannian.
Su Niannian nodded.
He took out silver needles from his backpack.
Su Niannian had no intention of giving Chief Miao even a single drop of the spiritual spring water.
The sacred spring water can only be used on family members and close relatives.
We cannot reveal anything to outsiders.
This is Beijing, this is the military base, not Kaoshan Village.
"Commander Lu, four bodies have been found over here!" The guard's voice came from around the corner on the first floor.
Upon hearing this, Chief Lu told Su Niannian to be careful before going over to check the situation.
There were four corpses at the corner of the stairs on the first floor.
One of them was Elder Miao's bodyguard. The other three were all people that Chief Lu had met before. Although they were somewhat unfamiliar to him, they were all Elder Miao's subordinates.
These people's skin is already quite fair.
The blood on the living room carpet and floor should belong to these four people.
"Check if anyone else is here," Commander Lu said to the two guards.
I should have brought more people.
Originally, Chief Lu wanted to come over and subtly inquire about the situation.
Who knew it would turn out like this?
Chief Lu feared that there might be someone else hiding in the shadows here.
It's not safe for a young girl like Su Niannian to be there.
So, he quickly walked back to Su Niannian's side.
In addition, two of Chief Lu's bodyguards have now gone down the stairs to the second floor to check the situation.
"Can she survive?" Commander Lu asked, standing beside Su Niannian.
"Yes." Su Niannian used acupuncture to stop the bleeding and discovered that Elder Miao's bleeding point was not in a vital area.
Clearly, those who attacked Chief Miao were not after murder.
But didn't they say they found four bodies?
This is how the same thing?
Su Niannian felt that it was somewhat like an attempt to cover up the truth.
It doesn't make sense. Someone came in and killed four people, leaving one old man behind. Then they just bled the old man a little and that was it.
Killing an old man who is paralyzed from the waist down is not an easy task.
How could we possibly spare his life?
The injury is real, but it's also true that there's no danger to my life.
After giving Elder Miao some basic treatment, Su Niannian pulled Chief Lu aside to a place some distance away from Elder Miao.
Lower your voice and speak.
I truthfully explained the situation of Chief Miao to Chief Lu.
Under the flashlight's beam, when Chief Lu heard Su Niannian's words, his expression turned somewhat gloomy.
"Girl, I understand," Chief Lu said to Su Niannian.
His tone was very calm.
Perhaps when Chief Lu first heard Su Niannian say this, he felt a little strange, or even couldn't believe it.
But upon closer reflection, it's not hard to understand.
However, the four people who died were either Miao Lao Dong's bodyguards or his soldiers.
If Old Miao really chose to sacrifice them in an attempt to cover up the truth, then his heart...
That's too heartless.
"Don't be too sad..." Su Niannian noticed the change in Chief Lu's expression and comforted him.
"It's nothing, it's just him..." Chief Lu's gaze returned to Old Miao.
"We were once comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, and we even shared life and death experiences." Commander Lu's voice was deep and solemn.
He seemed to be thinking about his youth, and there was a hint of nostalgia in his voice, before his voice turned cold.
Chief Lu felt disappointed, very disappointed.
Having already reached this position, how could you still be so foolish as to do such a wrong thing?
"It has been checked by the higher-ups, and there are no problems."
"Inform them about the situation here and send someone over," Chief Lu said.
Then he pulled Su Niannian away from the two-story building.
The smell of blood inside was not suitable for Su Niannian, a pregnant woman, to stay in.
On the other side, when Tian Guangzhi arrived at the code-breaking site, Gu Nan, Zhou Qishan, and several code-breaking specialists were already there conducting their research.
"Look what I found with Feng Zhenggang!" Tian Guangzhi said, carrying something as he quickly walked over.
