Chapter 376 Are you ready?
"Are you sure about this?" Fu Jin asked Jiang Yue after she showed him the results of her online research.
"Yes. Jin... look at this. This must be the real reason my mother has run away. She has not run away because of my father’s identity. She has run away because she had done sothing terrible." She said while looking at the news articles opened on her laptop screen. "This explosion has happened nine months before my birthday! Nine months! She must have been pregnant when she left."
Fu Jin just continued looking at Jiang Yue’s laptop. She was right, the explosion, which had killed a total of twenty children and fourteen other innocent people, had happened exactly nine months before Jiang Yue’s date of birth.
"There must be sothing else... my mother is not this cold-hearted. She won’t kill children. I know she won’t do that." She said as she opened the letter that she had found inside the vault. "Look at this. The na of the sender was intentionally blurred. As if it was so highly confidential letter from a governnt or sothing like that."
Jiang Yue held the letter, carefully looking at the blurred ssage. There was no seal or anything that could help her distinguish the source of the ssage. Then, she held it up towards the incandescent bulb on chandelier of their room.
"What are you doing?" Fu Jin asked.
"Just checking for hidden ssages or maybe sothing else." She sighed before putting the piece of paper back onto the table. "Jin, if I am right, then... my mother should be a mber of the organization that has killed those children."
"We can’t really determine it from these papers alone." Fu Jin said. After analyzing those articles and photos he could only co up with one conclusion.
"This can’t be considered as solid evidence. What if soone has deliberately planted these images to make your mother look bad? To make you investigate sothing that is totally unrelated to your mother?"
"You have a point." She nodded. Jiang Yue was fully aware that she did imdiately jump into conclusions. She didn’t even think of it properly before she concluded that her mother was involved in that accident. However, who could bla Jiang Yue? It was, after all, concerning her mother-soone very important to her
"Jin... what if she really was involved in this?" She asked, her face serious. "What if she really killed these people in cold blood?"
Seeing Fu Jin just stare at her, Jiang Yue added, "What do you think?"
"We don’t know that yet. All these ’what if’s’ will only make us more and more confused. It will hinder us from carefully analyzing the overall situation. I think we should not jump into conclusions. We need more clear and solid evidence." He answered. "I also think that it is the worst ti to think about this right now. Tomorrow is the Cabinet eting. We need to prepare properly." He stated.
Jiang Yue closed her eyes before she slowly massaged her temples. Her research on her mother’s past was already making progress. However, she really needed to concentrate on tomorrow’s affairs.
"You are right."
.........
On the next day, Jiang Yue and Fu Jin woke up early. The Cabinet eting was going to start exactly at nine in the morning. However, Jiang Yue needed to arrive earlier than the Ministers so she could prepare for her presentation.
"Is everything prepared?" She asked Fu Jin who had just finished his call with the Chief of the security.
"I will be waiting in a safe house just two blocks away from the palace. Bai’Li and Alex will be with . They will be in charge of tracing any suspicious activities on the palace’s servers. If they detect anything, they will imdiately send a signal to your phone." Fu Jin explained. "It has been encrypted with the best protocols that we have, so our communication will be safe."
"Are you ready?" He asked.
