Chapter 787: 787、His Heart Ached
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A blooming splash of blood scattered across the open wound. Sha Kang’s large eyes froze as he fell back onto the wall while gasping his final breath.
“Sir...” Song Shou retreated his hand and put up a wry smile, “The head will account you for this.”
Towards his kind reminder, Huo Chen did not reply as he stared at the dead man on the floor, “He deserved it.” The words escaped as if it was a relief.
Whether it was for his cris before or the murder he committed on Wen He, he deserved to die a million tis!
I don’t care if I am jailed after this. I will never regret what I have done!
Huo Chen put the pistol back into his sleeve and walked away, “Song Shou, reform the army. We are leaving Golden Triangle tomorrow.”
“...Y-yes, sir...”
Sir earned a major achievent this ti with the operation yet he went against the military order...
That would forfeit his effort in this operation. He might even be condemned for his wrongdoing.
The Aide-de-camp sighed as he left the storeroom with the general.
Huo Chen took out his crooked phone again to contact the leader of the search team for Wen He, “Take a sample from the pool of blood. I need a DNA report for it.”
I am not giving up.
Wen He must still be alive. Even if there’s a pool of blood, it might be blood of so animals.
Yes, Wen He must have survived, ready to give him another surprise again at the front seat...Yes...
He thought.
Only wishful thinking could keep the man sane by then.

The second morning, the military aircrafts departed from Golden Triangle in tidy formation. Huo Chen could not move his eyes from the forest beneath him through the window. He thought of her face, her voice, her annoying jokes and finally the last bright smile before she fell from the ciff.
His heart ached as if soone had stabbed his heart. It radiated to every cell over his body.
“Sir...” Song Shou ca to him suddenly, “I hope you could at least promise sothing...”
“What is it?” Huo Chen looked at him in dismay.
The Aide-de-camp’s tone was firm as he made his statent, “I had reported to the head, that I killed Sha Kang. Please state the sa, sir.”
“...” Huo Chen frowned, “Cut this ss, will you?”
Song Shou clenched his fist, “I made up my mind!”
...that the general’s future must not be tainted by this case!
“I do not permit,” said Huo Chen, shaking his head vigorously as he lifted his hand at Song Shou to interrupt him, “Song Shou. I am a soldier and I should be responsible for what I have done. I do understand that I had done it the wrong way but I do not regret it. We have achieved the impossible in this operation and I think the head would not punish heavily on such a trivial issue.”
“But...”
“No ‘but’.” Huo Chen pinched his eyes, “You’re tired, have a break.”
“... y-yes sir.”
After Song Shou left, he closed his eyes after turning on Auto-pilot mode.
In the midst of the ambience, all of sudden a sweet voice rang in his head.
“I love you.”
His head hopelessly rested upon the back of his chair as a drip of anguish rolled down his cheeks.
[Two days later]
Huo Chen made his way back to the capital. Everyone was inford of his grand achievent through the dia. The legend struck again as he destroyed Blood Rose single-handedly while annihilating Sha Kang and the other mafia groups. It was news known worldwide at the mont.
The citizens in Country Z was impressed and excited to et the hero as they hopped dramatically, hurrahing and waving by the gate, “We have won!”
“It’s what we called justice!”
“General Huo is amazing! He fulfilled his words! He’s the representation of ‘punishing evil even if it’s far away’!”
“He’ll be my idol from now on. My only idol.” One of the fangirls fainted upon seeing him in person.
