Chapter 273 The Darkest Hour (5)
Even without the lights on, she knew who that person was!
Yang Zheng!
She didn't hear any footsteps, which meant he had been outside the whole time.
Luo Ning's mind went blank for a moment, and her heart jumped into her throat.
Yang Zheng felt like he was in a dream. He had been guarding the door the whole time, but he hadn't seen Luo Ning come in.
Looking inside, I saw that Luo Ning was actually inside.
How did she get in? How did all this happen? Ah!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought he was seeing a ghost!
Yang Zheng looked around; there were people everywhere, so it wasn't convenient to talk. "Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, you and Tian Susu will be investigated together!"
Luo Ning breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that this dilapidated solitary confinement cell was surrounded by solitary confinement cells!
It gave her a little more time to weave and weave flowers.
They plugged their own loopholes.
"I want to see Xie Chang'an!" Yang Zheng said bluntly. Luo Ning was a master of deception, so he wanted to start with Xie Chang'an.
Something unusual is happening tonight, and he needs to know what's going on.
"Xie Chang'an doesn't want to see you!" Luo Ning extinguished Yang Zheng's hopes. Was she trying to get information out of Xie Chang'an?
Impossible, absolutely impossible! She would never give Yang Zheng that chance.
Yang Zheng was furious. What did this brat mean? He threw the empty cigarette pack in his hand into the box.
"Why doesn't he want to see me? It's you who doesn't want him to see me!"
"Oh dear, you've seen through me," Luo Ning said with a straight face, spouting nonsense. "You've locked me up, so why would he, as a victim's family member, want to see you?"
"You brat!" Yang Zheng glared at Luo Ning, then turned and walked out. "Don't forget, it's eight o'clock tomorrow!"
If you don't want to see me, can you just avoid me?
There are many suspicious things about Luo Ning, and he is determined to see Xie Chang'an.
Luo Ning's gaze shifted, and he stretched out his arm to reach for the cigarette box...
When Yang Zheng returned to the division headquarters, he wanted to report on Luo Ning's situation but found that he did not find Division Commander Liu.
Strange, where did they go?
Yang Zheng acted as if he were one of the guests, picked up a teacup, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it. He thought about it all the way back, but his mind was still a complete mess.
Hearing the familiar footsteps, Yang Zheng went up to them with a cup in hand. "Commander, the water in your office tastes better than the water at mine!"
Division Commander Liu rolled his eyes at Yang Zheng, knowing he was just being sarcastic. "What's going on with Luo Ning?"
Yang Zheng immediately went over and told him everything.
Commander Liu found it increasingly unbelievable, his face full of disbelief. "How is this possible? Have you been working non-stop these past few days and your eyesight has deteriorated?"
Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, it seemed that such a possibility really existed, but he still felt that Luo Ning's matter was quite strange.
A perfectly healthy person disappears without a trace and then returns just as quietly. If word gets out...
Who believes it!
People would definitely think he was mentally ill. The teachers didn't beat him into believing he was mentally ill; they just suspected he had an eye problem.
Now he's starting to doubt his own eyes. Is he really just too tired?
Yang Zheng put down his teacup, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes to rest. "Commander, do you think things will go smoothly tomorrow?"
"How would I know?" Commander Liu rubbed his temples and leaned back in his chair to rest.
With just over an hour to go before dawn, Luoning will face a crucial battle.
The showdown between Luo Ning and Tian Susu is about to begin.
Ma Jianguo, that troublemaker, is always running around doing all sorts of things.
It seems the lesson learned last time wasn't profound enough. Commander Liu transferred Ma Jianguo to Jijiang overnight to organize flood control efforts.
As dawn broke, the third wave of visitors arrived at the military hospital, in Chief Quan's ward. Quan Xiangchen sat by the bed and lowered his voice, "Dad, after Wang Youcai had a conflict with Luo Ning, he went home to comfort his wife and then left Jidu."
He had already prepared his transfer report, which was approved yesterday. He finished his business and ran away.
"You little bastard!" Chief Quan gritted his teeth and sneered. "You think you can run away on the first day of the month but on the fifteenth?"
Anyone who dares to mess with his brat can forget about having a good time. "Where is that bastard now?"
"I've been appointed as the political instructor of the 2nd Field Battalion in Qujiang City! I took office today, and I found out something interesting..."
Wang Youcai has a wife in Qujiang City, who works for the railway! She's older than his wife, and they've been together for many years, but they don't have children! He's going back this time to reunite with his wife; he plans to give up on Ma Daqin!
Quan Xiangchen and Chief Quan exchanged a glance, and similar cunning smiles appeared on their faces.
"Dad, focus on getting better. I will continue to follow up on Luo Ning's situation and will never let her suffer any injustice!" Quan Xiangchen stood up to take his leave. He and his elder brother had carefully considered the old man's thoughts and understood why the old man wanted to win over and protect Luo Ning.
Chief Quan, his eyes bulging with dissatisfaction, said, "I'm not at ease at all! My water's gone! You better figure out a way to get Luo Ning out of here right now!"
Also, make sure Luo Ning's father is safe. And while you're at it, bring back two petty thieves for me. I want to see who's behind this dirty trick.
Are you even capable of this? The Ming family's affairs have been dragging on for so long and still haven't been resolved! I heard that Zuo Yunhan, that treacherous bastard, is jumping around trying to kill Ling Qing. Let me tell you, if Ling Qing dies in jail…”
I can't do it?! How did you even get your grandson?! Can't you at least use a little more care in your speech...?
"Dad, this will absolutely not happen!" Quan Xiangchen assured the old man that he would definitely handle it and asked him not to worry.
Chief Quan breathed a sigh of relief, then started muttering to himself again, "You and Quan Xiangyang, those two bastards, have only ever cared about your wives all these years, completely ignoring this old man... Hey, where's my knife?"
Quan Xiangchen once again suffered hellish torment from his father and almost fled the hospital.
Ever since the old man ate Luo Ning's food, he's been acting like he's possessed, criticizing him and his older brother for abusing him every day.
I don't even know where to begin. Who would dare to mistreat him? They'd just bring out a big knife at the drop of a hat. He's lived in the shadow of that big knife since he was a child.
Now in his forties, and having served in the General Staff for many years, he's quite a figure, but the old man still gets scared when he picks up a big knife.
Back when the old man was still able to move around freely, he would chase me or my older brother for miles with a big knife over the slightest thing.
Only in the last two years, when his health has been poor and he's been bedridden, has he calmed down a bit and put away his knife. But his mouth has become increasingly sharp.
My older brother is stationed far away in the Southern Military Region, and all the bad things happen to him.
Who told him to be the son and the younger brother!
In Ming's ward not far away, Jiang Cheng reported in a low voice, "Dr. Ming, Minister Quan just left. I think Chief Quan's intention is still to hold back! I suggest we don't make any rash moves either. Comrade Luo Ning's letter to you also conveyed that message! Don't let her stay locked up; she'll have to worry about you!"
The Ming army doctor became increasingly restless, wanting to cause trouble in various ways, so he had no choice but to bring out Luo Ning to calm things down.
Ming instantly became a couch potato; Luo Ning's letter only had a few words, but he could recite them by heart.
When Luo Ning needed help the most, he could only lie in bed. He was truly useless!
"Where is Xie Chang'an?" He had carefully observed Jiang Cheng and the others over the past few days, and they were all quite good. He had complete confidence in Luo Ning's abilities.
It's a real shame that Luo Ning didn't manage to get rid of the chubby boy and put Ling Qing in jail.
Ling Qing has always been a bit dim-witted, so it's not surprising that he ended up on this path of no return.
"I don't know, I haven't seen him for many days, but he still can't get out of bed!" Jiang Cheng said confidently.
Ming instantly regained his balance; now he can only find balance and maintain emotional stability through Xie Chang'an.
I wonder how Luo Ning is doing now. Is she scared after such a big thing happened...?
