The Cultivator's Reborn to 1970s-Chapter 220 - 184

That person had followed him up from the new recruits, and they had called each other brothers. Even he hadn’t noticed the other harboring evil intentions; it evidently showed how well he had camouflaged himself, reaching the pinnacle of espionage.

"I have someone in mind who I’m suspecting, this task is for Jiang Xiaoshan to handle," Mo Junhua continued without waiting for Su Qing to object, "We are all brothers here. Once you know who it is, Froggy, you won’t be able to hide your emotions. If you accidentally alert the snake, it will be even harder to find any evidence. Xiao Shan is more naive, and he’s an old hand at reconnaissance. It’s best to leave this job to him; after all, he was the one who taught you surveillance techniques."

Su Qing glared at Jiang Xiaoshan. Though what the battalion commander said made sense, he still felt unconvinced. He had never heard of ’the new overtaking the old, with the old waves dying on the beach.’

Jiang Xiaoshan’s eyes sparkled brilliantly as he looked at Su Qing with a naive smile, snapping to attention with a salute, "Battalion commander, I guarantee to complete the mission. For the comrades we’ve lost in our battalion, I’ll definitely uncover the traitor." There was an unprecedented solemnity and fierce determination in Jiang Xiaoshan’s eyes.

"Mhm." Mo Junhua handed him a few pieces of paper, "Destroy these after reading. Start your investigation in this direction, you’ll surely find evidence. Send a message to Ding Lei, he hasn’t had the chance to sweep the battlefield yet, there should still be traces. Have him search thoroughly; we cannot let any leads slip by."

"Yes." Jiang Xiaoshan took the orders and left. Su Qing looked at Mo Junhua and raised his foot to follow, but Mo Junhua called out for him to stay.

"Froggy, wait a moment, I have an assignment for you."

Upon hearing there was a mission, Su Qing cracked a smile, clearly pleased that the battalion commander still cared for him, and eagerly approached.

"Battalion commander, your health..." After discussing the official matters, Su Qing eyed his body and didn’t look away, flattering him with the fact that one should always inquire about the patient’s condition when visiting, "Are you going to attend the commendation meeting held by the regiment?"

"Forget about that for now. I have a task for you. Investigate Chu Yang. I suspect he is not just a regular doctor. Start with his background, see who he’s been in contact with, what he’s done. I want a detailed report on him."

"Investigating him?" Su Qing couldn’t understand, what did this have to do with him? Apart from being a bit of a womanizer and having a close relationship with Nurse Zhou, what could a doctor possibly do to warrant the battalion commander’s attention?

"How many times have I told you, never underestimate anyone. Have you ever thought about why I have been detained in the Military District Hospital? Who did it? It was done without the regiment commander’s knowledge, completely sealing off the news. In the Military District Hospital, who could have such powers, able to deceive and mislead. He might be the only informant. Anyway, just thoroughly investigate, keep a close watch on him, it’s best to even know how many times he’s used the toilet."

"Yes, battalion commander, I guarantee to complete the mission." Su Qing, albeit a bit simple-minded, admired Mo Junhua greatly, and would never disobey his orders. Thus, if the battalion commander said to investigate Chu Yang, he would dig up everything there is on Chu Yang’s ancestors.

"Head back to the battalion, and also make a trip to the regiment headquarters, inform the regiment commander that I’ve awakened, to stop him from worrying."

Su Qing obeyed and left; just as he got to the door, Mo Junhua called out to him again.

"Never mind, Froggy, arrange it. I will personally make a trip to the regiment headquarters."

After Mo Junhua finished giving instructions and Su Qing went to arrange things, Chunhua, the guard at the door, came in.

"Third Brother, what’s going on with you and Zhou Yuwei, why does she keep bothering you? Did you promise her something?" Unable to hold back any longer, Chunhua finally asked. Zhou Yuwei used to care about appearances and didn’t dare to get too close to her Third Brother, but now she was brazenly coming over, silently staring at her Third Brother, utterly disgusting.

"That woman doesn’t look like a decent woman at first glance, approaching you with no good intentions, and she’s a flirt. I’ll tell you, in this lifetime, I only recognize Lan Tian as my sister-in-law, and my mother only acknowledges Lan Tian as her daughter-in-law. If you miss out on her, you will regret it for life."

A gleam of amusement flashed in Mo Junhua’s eyes, he reached out to ruffle Chunhua’s hair, "I know, your sister-in-law will always be Lan Tian. I have nothing to do with Nurse Zhou, don’t worry about her."

Chunhua paused, then turned her head to wipe away the moisture in her eyes before slapping away the hand on her head, "I’m grown up now, not a little kid anymore."

At the entrance, Zhou Yuwei’s face looked as dark as ink. She came to take care of Mo Junhua, only to overhear Chunhua trying to sow discord in front of him, even accusing her of being flirtatious.

Zhou Yuwei considered herself to be pure and chaste and thought that it was Lan Tian who was the flirtatious one, shamelessly chasing after men.

"Lan Tian must have fed her some kind of love potion to have her act this way on her behalf. Hmph!" With a flick of her hand, she turned around and left, vowing to make them regret it someday.

...

Su Qing worked efficiently; it only took a couple of days to arrange the itinerary. After obtaining the consent of the attending Dr. Chen, the hospital planned to send a nurse to accompany and care for him. Mo Junhua refused, stating that Chunhua would accompany him. The two were siblings, and naturally, Chunhua would be more dedicated than an outsider.

Mo Junhua’s reasons were sound, and the Military District Hospital had nothing to object to. Since Chunhua was a nurse herself, it was difficult for the hospital to refuse and they could only agree. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Only Zhou Yuwei felt dejected; she was one of the nurses arranged by the hospital to accompany him, and now she could only watch Chunhua go with Mo Junhua.

...

Battalion Commander’s Office

Sitting in a wheelchair, Mo Junhua rested his hands on his knees, his expressionless face and piercing gaze fixed straight ahead. Across the desk, the battalion commander put away his usual jovial demeanor, slowly turning solemn and his gaze, equally deep, settled on him.

"How’s your health?" His eyes briefly scanned Mo Junhua’s legs. This was the soldier he had personally brought up, the one with the most promise. "If it really doesn’t work out, we can transfer you to Beijing. I refuse to believe we can’t find someone in Beijing who can treat your condition."

Mo Junhua saw guilt and helplessness in the battalion commander’s eyes. He knew exactly why the commander felt guilty. To be honest, Mo Junhua had held some resentments, but complaints were useless, and life had to go on as usual.

However, he was not here for this but could use the commander’s guilt to achieve his purposes.

"I know my own body. Even National Doctor Mo wouldn’t be able to do anything. Commander, I’m here not for this matter but about Nurse Zhou."

Zhou Yuwei?

The battalion staff was taken aback, his eyes flickered, and he silently looked straight at Mo Junhua. On the other side, Mo Junhua’s gaze was firm. The commander sighed inwardly, feeling helpless and wiped his face. "What’s the matter regarding Nurse Zhou?"

He had heard about the issues between Zhou Yuwei and Mo Junhua. On one hand, he despised those higher-ups who would stoop so low, using such despicable means to ruin Mo Junhua.

On the other hand, he looked at Mo Junhua with newfound respect for not falling into their trap, for always upholding the duties of a soldier—he had not been wrong about him.

He knew that Zhou Yuwei had been pursuing Mo Junhua one-sidedly, and Mo Junhua had been ignoring her. Now that Mo Junhua was approaching him, the commander could not guess Mo Junhua’s intentions. He picked up the water cup to drink, trying to guess his purpose.

"I’m here because I hope the battalion will give me justice," Mo Junhua pulled out a document from beneath his wheelchair and handed it to the commander. "I want to file a report with the organization, accusing Nurse Zhou of undermining a military marriage. This is my complaint report."
