Chapter 841: Chapter 0841 Settling Dust 2

Commissioner Liao’s head was throbbing with pain.

Although they hadn’t handled this matter publicly, limited to the knowledge of a few high-ranking generals and prevented Chen Chen from spreading the news, they couldn’t explain themselves to the officers before them, nor did they have the face to do so!

And for good reason—their revolutionary partners all served in the Cultural Troupe.

Living apart, with the men serving on the border defense force and the Capital Military Region responsible for managing the Cultural Troupe, it was their duty to look after their partner’s lives and work. If their spouse encountered difficulties, they ought to lend a hand.

Yet what happened? Chen Chen’s misconduct had spoiled everything.

No matter what, since they were there and had specifically asked about Wan Xinguo, Commissioner Liao knew he couldn’t hide the truth. He directly led them to Jiang Yun’s office, apologizing with a forced smile on the way, "About this matter, let me explain. The Military Region has no intention of doubting or investigating Comrade Wan Xinguo. Not at all. It was just a routine inquiry. After all, the army received Comrade Chen Chen’s divorce report, which was difficult to articulate in just a few words. We inquired Comrade Wan Xinguo out of a need to protect military marriages, to understand the situation."

With a cold snort, Shang Kun retorted, "Protect military marriages? Isn’t Wan Xinguo a soldier too? Isn’t he within the scope of protection? Just understanding the situation and that’s it? Who are you fooling? Are you treating us like children? Unfortunately, even Xibao wouldn’t fall for that! A couple divorces, and you just wait for them to file the report and deal with it according to the rules. What gives you the right to investigate our brother based on one side of the story? Come on, Commissioner Liao, let’s go to the office of your Military Region Commander. Call all the staff involved in investigating this matter. Let them see the proof provided by our entire unit, verifying Comrade Wan Xinguo’s innocence. I’m puzzled — Comrade Wan Xinguo shed blood for the border defense force, and you couldn’t protect his marriage back home, letting it shatter after just one visit, and yet you dare to take him away for investigation."

Even if Commissioner Liao said there was no such thing, Shang Kun and the others didn’t believe it. If that were true, Jiang Xiaoyue wouldn’t have tipped them off. The only explanation was that Wan Xinguo really had been taken away for an investigation. Perhaps somebody had said it was a big deal and they couldn’t handle it so rashly, so they released Wan Xinguo, attempting to paper over the cracks.

This visitor bode no good! Commissioner Liao sighed.

On this matter, the Capital Military Region was indeed at fault, and Commissioner Liao had no choice but to bring them to Jiang Yun’s office.

Although Jiang Yun was the deputy commander, the actual commander was not present, so naturally they sought him out.

"You’re finally here!" After saluting each other and seeing the petition signed by a thousand people, Jiang Yun said directly, "I knew our soldiers would not commit such acts. My guarantee was not misplaced, was it?"

He was speaking to Commissioner Liao, who looked embarrassed.

Because of his relationship with Su Junshu, Su Junlin was very familiar with Jiang Yun and asked, "What’s the situation? We’d all like to hear."

"Even before the army sent a telegram to your side for inquiry, I assured the personnel investigating the matter that Comrade Wan Xinguo is definitely not the person described in Chen Chen’s divorce report. Some people, they just don’t believe it, saying that you can know the face but not the heart. Commissioner Liao, call them over, everyone, let them look at this unit’s petition. They wouldn’t lie about something that could jeopardize their careers, would they?"
