Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

Nebula City, Double Star Building.

Military Office.

When Qin Yuan came to look for Ling Changfeng, his face was a little serious.

He stood still in front of the desk, did not speak directly to report, but silently stood at attention, waiting for Ling Changfeng to finish the work at hand.

Ling Changfeng looked up at him with emotion, signed the document in his hand and closed it before asking, “What’s the matter?”

“Two things.
First, about what you asked me to investigate before, where did the scar on Xu Xinghe’s gland come from.
Second, during the investigation of this matter, some unexpected discoveries—”

Qin Yuan said, stepped forward and spread the folder in front of Ling Changfeng.

Ling Changfeng frowned slightly: “What is the conclusion?”

As soon as Qin Yuan opened his mouth, he felt that something was not right.
His adjutant seldom said anything like this.
According to the general reporting process, he would directly tell him where the scars came from, not that they are scars.

Sure enough, Qin Yuan said with a serious expression: “There is no conclusion.
People from the Intelligence Department and the Security Bureau have been investigating for more than a month—”

Qin Yuan raised his head and said, “Nothing was found.”

Ling Changfeng’s eyes narrowed and he repeated, “Nothing?”

Marshal Ling was obviously dissatisfied with the efficiency of his subordinates, and his tone sank.

His index finger tapped on the table, signaling Qin Yuan to start talking.

Qin Yuan noticed his officer’s displeasure at the moment, so he put away his hippie smile, and stood at attention to report.
“Xu Xinghe’s resume was normal until the third year of his junior year, that is, when he was 21 years old.
The wound appeared around the age of 21.
During summer vacation of the second half of the semester, there are no records of him spending money.
He also rejected all friends’ travel invitations, but the chat was still going on normally, but the frequency of replies was slower.
During that time, when someone asked what he’s doing, he replied uniformly that he was in retreat at home to write his thesis.
Other than that, there was no other abnormality.
All the replies were sent by his own communication device, and the IP address was indeed located at home.”

Adjutant Qin took a deep breath, then continued: “I have seen his pre-marital health diagnosis report.
The wound on the back of his neck was probably caused by a 2.8cm wide diamond-shaped weapon.
There is no record of medical treatment or purchase of medicines on the electronic medical card.
People from the Intelligence Department and the Security Bureau visited Capital University in plain clothes and asked some of his classmates at the time.
Some people said that from Xinghe’s own words, the scar was due to an accident at home when he was bathing.
The glass suddenly shattered, and some shards accidentally got into his flesh.
However, if it was really just such an accident, there was no need for him not to go to the doctor.
And if he was threatened at that time, then instead of calling the police, it is very interesting to use an excuse to cover up the true reason.”

Ling Changfeng frowned and asked, “Did anyone see him during the summer vacation of his junior year?”

Qin Yuan nodded: “Yes, in mid-to-late July, he once went to the Capital University laboratory and ran his thesis data on the supercomputer in the laboratory.
Since then, for about a month or so, no one has seen him again.
All traces of him seem to have been erased.
It’s strange because there is nothing.
Intuition tells me that this is more serious than we thought…”

“I don’t want to hear your intuition, investigate.
The fact that there is no result shows the seriousness of the problem.” Marshal Ling put his palms together and rested his hands on his chest, and cast a stern gaze from behind the desk.

This is the gaze of the marshal.

Qin Yuan lowered his head: “I’m sorry.”

“What’s the plan?” Marshal Ling asked.

“There is no good plan for now.
We can only let the Intelligence Section and the Security Bureau continue to follow up.” After saying this, Qin Yuan fell silent.

In fact, there is a shortcut in front of him, but he knows that his superior does not want to take this shortcut at the moment.

“So, what did you find?” Ling Changfeng continued to ask, he knew that if there was no progress at all, Qin Yuan would not come to report to him.

“I found something accidentally—”

Qin Yuan said, stepping forward and flipping the folder to the next pages.

A few photos were clipped into the attachment, which immediately attracted Marshal Ling’s attention.

His pupil shrank slightly.

His eyes quickly swept across the file containing a few lines of personal information and written reports.

“What’s going on?”

Ling Changfeng raised his head and looked at Qin Yuan steadily.

“As you can see.
Because the investigation was unsuccessful, the Intelligence Division has almost looked through the relevant information about people related to Xu Xinghe, and found this…” Qin Yuan sighed inaudibly.
“This is a small matter and a troublesome one.
Originally, they may never have any interaction in their lifetime, and you can turn a blind eye and pretend that you don’t know.
But now, her situation is very bad.
If we let it go, she might die because she didn’t get timely treatment.
What should I say… If Xinghe finds out in the future, it may cause some irreversible consequences.”

Ling Changfeng pondered for a moment and whispered.
“I know.
When Xinghe comes back, I will tell him.
His choice will depend on him.”

“Yes.” Qin Yuan nodded and continued to ask: “Then what about the scar?”

“Continue to check.” Ling Changfeng said, a firm light flashed in his eyes, “Check to the end.”

“Yes!” Qin Yuan gave a standard military salute and turned to leave.

After Qin Yuan left, Ling Changfeng got up and stood in front of the one-way floor-to-ceiling glass window, overlooking the bustling Nebula City outside the eighty-eighth floor.

Suddenly he misses his little spouse.

In fact, both he and Qin Yuan are well aware that asking Xu Xinghe himself is the fastest and most direct way to find out.

He’s the party involved in the whole thing, and the only one that can be found at the moment.

However, Ling Changfeng remembered that night, when asked why Xu Xinghe was afraid of being marked, the other party’s pale face, fearful eyes, and trembling body.

He really can’t bear forcing him into such a situation again.

Ling Changfeng sighed silently.

What is his little spouse doing now?

Marshal Ling turned around and took two steps, came to the reception room in the side hall, and called Xu Xinghe.

Surprisingly, the call rang for a long time and no one answered.

Ling Changfeng frowned slightly and called again, but no one answered.

What happened? Played too much?

Ling Changfeng looked down at the call log on the screen and pursed his lips.

Although Xu Xinghe did not answer his own phone calls before, perhaps because of the conversation just now, his heart felt a little uneasy.

He thought for a while, then dialed Qin Yuan’s line again: “Go and check, what’s Xinghe’s team doing?

Gu Nai looked at the big truck filled with all kinds of high-tech equipment and signal shielding devices.
Inside the modified car, a cigarette was lit.

He doesn’t smoke often, but at this moment, he suddenly took a deep breath, and couldn’t help coughing.

The others in the car are well-trained burly men with guns around their waists.
Seeing this scene, some people laughed at him and said, “Look at you, you are a scholar, don’t drag us down later.”

Gu Nai was not annoyed after hearing this.
Instead, he smiled and nodded: “Yeah, I’m a scholar, why should I come wade in this muddy water?”

Hearing this, a tall man with a scar on his face turned his head to face him and said solemnly, “Don’t complain.
Master didn’t save you in order to support you to attend university.”

“I know, I’m not complaining.” Gu Nai shrugged, “How are preparations? How long until we leave Capital Star? Leave before Ling Changfeng can react, otherwise it will be very difficult to leave once the port is completely blocked.”

The scarred man in the lead glanced at Gu Nai, and before he could speak, he listened to another man beside him with a sneer.
“This is Capital Star, the core planet of the Gamma galaxy.
Even if he is Marshal Ling, he can’t block all the ports because his wife lost, right? Otherwise, how much economic loss will be caused in one day.
Is he not afraid of impeachment by the military committee?”

“And I heard that the relationship between Ling Changfeng and his wife is not very good.
He may not really care about this match.”

“After all, of these second matches, 80% will divorce after a year.”

 

The drama continues…
