Chapter 1251: Chapter 1251: Xiang Yu Obtains the Privilege Badge
Gao Lianfeng and his two brothers also rushed in, and they were taken aback when they saw the middle-aged man, clearly not expecting him to be here.
Each of them, being military n, stood there and saluted the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man, seeing these people were no threat to his father, finally showed signs of exhaustion and gestured for them to go inside.
At this mont, Gao Zhitao saw his grandfather lying there peacefully, and his ntal world collapsed.
He never expected his grandfather to leave him, and so hastily at that.
Gao Zhitao grew up with his grandfather and had deep feelings for him; this mont felt suffocating.
The elderly man, seeing they had co in, sighed helplessly and then walked outside.
He knew these people were Gao Mantang’s family, so he didn’t linger there.
Seeing his father co out, the middle-aged man quickly stepped forward to support him, saying, “Dad, let’s go ho first.”
The elderly man nodded his head; at that mont, he seed much older.
“Don’t forget what I told you.” The middle-aged man said this to Xiang Yu before leaving.
Xiang Yu sat quietly in the outer corridor, waiting.
Gao Mantang’s body was transported back to his hotown, but Xiang Yu didn’t follow. Gao Mantang died because of him, he must find the murderer.
This matter doesn’t need investigation; it’s most likely Commander Cao’s doing. Xiang Yu returned to the elder’s villa.
The old man was aged, and combined with the incident of Gao Mantang, he fell ill from excessive grief.
Thankfully, the illness wasn’t severe, and he would be fine with just two days of good rest.
The middle-aged man stayed by the old man’s side all the ti, and when he saw Xiang Yu return to the villa, he didn’t speak.
Xiang Yu wisely stepped outside to wait downstairs. About an hour later, the middle-aged man ca out, walked into the hall, and said to Xiang Yu, “Co with .”
Xiang Yu didn’t say anything and followed the middle-aged man outside.
They got into a car and drove into the distance.
Xiang Yu didn’t know where they were heading, and he didn’t ask. But eventually, he understood they were going to the Command Headquarters.
They arrived at the middle-aged man’s office at the Command Headquarters. The middle-aged man had soone bring a military uniform for Xiang Yu to change into.
Once Xiang Yu put on the military uniform, he seed like a different person, with a tall, straight posture full of military dignity.
“Very good.” The middle-aged man smiled as he looked at Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu hadn’t worn a military uniform in a long ti, and wearing it again had a sense of nostalgia.
“Commander, did you ask here for sothing?” Xiang Yu finally spoke.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, “I’m ordering you to rejoin the army now.”
There was no joy on Xiang Yu’s face upon hearing it; he wanted to return to the army, but there were too many things holding him back in the city.
Seeing Xiang Yu’s look, the middle-aged man said, “I know what you’re thinking, I’m giving you special privileges, giving you freedom, you can live in the city.”
Xiang Yu was taken aback; there had never been such a precedent before.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, “I investigated your background and know what you have done, now I’m just restoring your identity so you can continue your previous life.”
Xiang Yu realized that it was just like before; he retained his identity as Special Forces but still operated undercover in the city.
“Yes!” Xiang Yu imdiately saluted.
This was the best result he wanted, just like three years ago when Commander Cao released him into the city.
The situation was the sa as it was then, only this ti Xiang Yu believed, the Number One Leader and Commander Cao were entirely different people.
“Don’t get happy too soon, I have sothing for you to do.” Number One Leader looked at Xiang Yu seriously and said.
Xiang Yu quickly nodded, knowing the other would arrange a task.
“Right now, we don’t know Commander Cao’s exact identity; he has indeed escaped, and we didn’t catch him in ti, which is our loss. Your mission is to investigate this matter, and if the ti is ripe, you can eliminate him.” Number One Leader said sternly.
Xiang Yu knew the seriousness of this matter; Commander Cao possessed important national secrets. If he were truly an imperial spy, it would be a blow to the nation.
Xiang Yu nodded seriously, showing a respectful deanor.
Number One Leader was quite satisfied with Xiang Yu’s performance and said, “If there’s anything, feel free to co to .”
This was what Xiang Yu loved to hear. With Number One Leader backing him, he could roam the world freely.
Seeing Xiang Yu looking so proud, Number One Leader’s face turned cold and said, “If you do sothing harmful to the country, I will destroy you rcilessly.”
“Of course.” Xiang Yu chuckled, showing his usual smile.
“Alright, you may leave. I don’t care how you handle things, but you must capture Commander Cao for .” Number One Leader said firmly.
After speaking, he returned to his desk, sitting down. Seeing Xiang Yu hadn’t left yet, he frowned and asked, “Is there sothing else?”
Xiang Yu chuckled and said, “Commander, you just ntioned I have privileges, what are those privileges?”
Number One Leader looked at Xiang Yu with a sense of a small-town man, almost making him laugh. He rarely interacted with the grassroots and, being in a high position, had never had anyone haggle with him before.
Number One Leader just looked at Xiang Yu very seriously without saying anything.
Xiang Yu felt uncomfortable all over, with a feeling of being seen through. He then chuckled awkwardly, “Don’t be so serious, it’s fine if there are no privileges, I’m easy to talk to.”
Over ti, Xiang Yu grew more familiar with Number One Leader, gradually revealing his true nature.
“No one has ever dared to talk to like this.” Seeing Xiang Yu like this, Number One Leader suddenly laughed.
Indeed, all the people Number One Leader had co into contact with were serious and respectful, with little room for joking.
Even when he was with his father, it was mostly grave discussions of national affairs.
Now, Xiang Yu’s way of speaking gave him an inexplicable feeling of comfort, without needing to pretend.
“What kind of privileges do you want?” Number One Leader asked Xiang Yu with a smile.
Xiang Yu smiled and said, “You decide, after all, I’m working under you, I’m your man, representing your face. Also, undercover work outside is very dangerous; a little carelessness and I could be killed. Worse, if the local authorities don’t know my identity, they could throw in jail for a while.”
Xiang Yu seized the opportunity to voice his grievances.
Number One Leader understood, smiled, and then took out a key, walked over to the safe, and opened it.
He took out a small plaque from inside, a jade green one, with a single word “Order” engraved on it.
“Here’s a plaque for you, hold onto it.” Number One Leader said as he handed it to Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu had never seen such a thing, so he awkwardly smiled and said, “Is this the privilege you’re giving ?”
