Hello, Mr. Major General Chapter 1044 - Couldn't Take It Anymore

Chapter 1044: Couldn’t Take It Anymore

Pick one?
He either framed a Major General for treason?
Or he attempted to murder a Major General?!
She was asking him to choose one?
Motherf**ker! What an imagination!
Hong Kangquan hadn’t expected Gu Nianzhi to actually block his exit path with his very own words…
But he wouldn’t yield!
His eyes widened, and his face turned purple. Teeth chattering loudly, he appeared to be on the edge of fury, yet he managed to use his strongest restraint to repress it in the end.
Hong Kangquan slowly looked up. “What a joke! Why do I need to choose one? You really are great at blaming people. You’re absolutely making something from nothing and spewing nonsense!”
“You won’t choose?” Gu Nianzhi cocked her head. “Very well then. I think both paths are suitable for you.”
Hong Kangquan was shocked. Hadn’t she just asked him to choose one from the two? What was the meaning of suddenly throwing both charges on his head?!
Speaker Long and Special Assistant Yang were lost for words. Wasn’t this girl taking this a bit too far? It was a choice between two, so how could both be suitable?
Tan Guiren was wide-eyed. Although she understood the meaning of each word, she didn’t have any idea what Gu Nianzhi was talking about when the words were strung together, but she sounded very profound.
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes locked on Hong Kangquan’s face, so she wouldn’t miss a single change in his expression. She made a “V” with her fingers and laughed playfully. “What is it? You don’t believe that both paths are suitable for you?”
After Gu Nianzhi said this, she wiped the smile off her face and said sternly, “In the beginning, you had the intention of killing off Major General Huo and secretly plotted to make him go personally to the United States to rescue Miss Tan. Because according to what you said, you understood Major General Huo’s abilities better than anyone else. From the way you saw it, the American Military Police and CIA were undefeatable, so Major General Huo would have certainly died in the hands of the Americans if he went to the United States. That way, you would’ve achieved your goal of murdering Major General Huo.”
“Oh?! How cunning! How could you be so evil!” Tan Guiren was very indignant and even forgot her own fears. Walking over from behind Gu Nianzhi, she pointed to Hong Kangquan and shouted loudly, “You’re a bad person! I’ll tell my Daddy and Mommy to strip you of your title!”
Gu Nianzhi smirked and held Tan Guiren back. She really wanted to tell this girl to wake up—her Daddy wasn’t the Prime Minister anymore…
Hong Kangquan sneered, “Is that so? But Major General Huo returned alive, so are you trying to dump false charges on me?!”
“Right, Major General Huo did return alive. Your first plan failed, so you created another one. This time, you wanted Major General Huo’s reputation to be destroyed by making him suffer a fate crueler than death.” Gu Nianzhi calmly analyzed the situation. “…So afterward, you chose the second path and falsely accused the nation’s Major General of being captured and betraying his nation.”
Speaker Long’s heart sank as he suddenly felt so horrible he couldn’t find any words to say.
Special Assistant Zhuang widened his eyes in shock as he looked at Gu Nianzhi and intended to remind her not to reveal everything right then. This wasn’t a courtroom after all.
Yet Gu Nianzhi smiled subtly at him and seemed very confident.
Hong Kanquan’s heart thumped loudly. Ever since he learned the AI program he planted in the Special Operations Forces’ surveillance software had been discovered, he had an impending sense of doom that hovered over him.
But while he imagined many scenarios of the truth being exposed–there wasn’t a single one where he was tripped up by two random little girls…
He couldn’t accept this!
Hong Kangquan continued to sneer coldly as he maintained his fearless front. “Gu Nianzhi, I hear that you’re a model student from the B University Faculty of Law. Is this how you work as a lawyer? Convicting suspects without any evidence?!”
“Oh, no evidence?” Gu Nianzhi continued to curl her lips into a faint smile. “Then you mean that my logical reasoning is justified, but there’s no evidence to prove my logical reasoning for the time being? Very well then, thanks for the reminder. Next, we will go search for evidence.”
At that moment, Hong Kangquan already couldn’t take it anymore.
“What nonsense! Do I have nothing better to do than listen to nonsense from a little girl who just graduated?!” Hong Kangqyan appeared very angry and turned around to leave.
“Stop right there!” Speaker Long finally stopped him at that moment. “Director Hong, please stop!”
Hong Kangquan stopped his tracks and seemed to be struggling internally. After a while, he finally turned around and plastered a rigid smile on his face. He asked nervously, “Speaker Long, was there something else?”
“That’s a question I should be asking you.” Speaker Long stood there authoritatively. “You came to my office and wanted to see me without making an appointment. You even purposely dragged Miss Tan here to question her, so what are you trying to do?”
What was he trying to do?
Of course, he wanted to bring down Huo Shaoheng in one fell swoop…
But he was currently terrified after being completely dismantled by Gu Nianzhi’s attacks, so he no longer had the aggression he had first possessed when arriving there.
Hong Kangquan stuttered a few times before saying, “…I just wanted to ask what happened when Major General Huo was in New York. It’d be fine if Miss Tan could explain it clearly…”
“Fine? Major General Huo is fine, but there is something wrong with you, Director Hong.” Speaker Long spoke as he pressed on a button on his desk.
“Speaker Long, what do you mean?” Hong Kangquan’s expression immediately changed when he saw Speaker Long’s movement.
That button alerted the Senate Building to bring out the Military Police in charge of executions!
“What I mean is very simple. Hong Kangquan, you are temporarily stripped of all your duties. Explain the problem at the assigned location and time and wait for the organization to investigate.” Speaker Long was very decisive. Because he wanted to make up for his previous mistake, he decided to implement this immediately.
“No! You can’t do this to me!” Hong Kangquan had never expected a day when the always amicable Speaker Long would act so fiercely. “I’m a director of the Cabinet! You have no right to detain me!”
“No, the Cabinet has already been dissolved. You’re only a temporary interim director.” Speaker Long understood the government procedures much better than Hong Kangquan. “Before the new Cabinet is assembled, you’re only acting as interim Cabinet authority. So, Hong Kangquan, Old Long has the authority to detain you.”
Hong Kangquan’s teeth clacked as his gaze calmly swept over the faces of the several people inside the office.
Speaker Long was elderly, and Special Assistant Zhuang had weak health. There were also two delicate little girls he didn’t even need to worry about.
If he made a move to hold Speaker Long hostage…
But he repressed this idea as soon as it formed.
No, this wasn’t yet the time to struggle for life or death.
He still had a chance.
Hong Kangquan remembered the expert who could help him and recalled his commitment to him. His heart relaxed as he temporarily gave up resistance.
Of course, the most important thing was that he also knew that even if he could hold Speaker Long hostage, he wouldn’t be able to walk out of the Senate building.
He’d probably be shot in the head by snipers before he even walked out of the doors.
He stood inside Speaker Long’s office and didn’t move. Hanging his head, he expressed his acceptance and obedience.
Soon afterward, the Military Police from the Senate arrived. According to Speaker Long’s commands, they frisked Hong Kangquan and were actually able to find a pistol and military-issued dagger on him!
These weapons were clearly not prohibited in the Senate building.
Speaker Long, Special Assistant Zhuang, and Gu Nianzhi had all broken into cold sweats as they exchanged looks with each other.
Tan Guiren was the only one who didn’t understand the earlier danger and patted her chest to say, “How wonderful. Can I leave now?”
She was in a rush to tell her Daddy and Mommy what had happened there.
Gu Nianzhi glanced at Speaker Long and, upon seeing him incline his chin slightly, she turned to Tan Guiren to say, “Miss Tan, I’ll escort you outside.”
Tan Guiren’s favorable feelings towards Gu Nianzhi multiplied at that moment, since she had protected her from Hong Kangquan.
When Gu Nianzhi escorted Tan Gurien out of the Senate building, Speaker Long called General Ji.
He simply explained what had occurred that day, then said sincerely, “Old Ji, please apologize to Shaoheng on my behalf. I’ve really wronged him this time.”
However, General Ji merely grinned ear to ear when he heard Speaker Long talk about everything Gu Nianzhi had done.
He casually humored Speaker Long for a while before he arrived at the “isolation room” that Huo Shaoheng was staying in. He said with a smile, “Shaoheng, you don’t need to be detained anymore.”
Huo Shaoheng looked up from the computer and raised a brow. “…I’m being detained right now?”
He glanced casually at the room that was comparable to a luxurious suite in a five-star hotel.
General Ji was a bit embarrassed and angry. “I say you are being detained, so you are being detained! Even if you were living in a five-star hotel, that’s still detainment!”
Huo Shaoheng curled his lips and nodded slowly. “Very well then. I’m being detained.”
“You dare to brush me off?” General Ji became unhappy. “You’re lucky that you found a good wife so you don’t have to be detained anymore. But you just showed a leader an improper attitude, so I’ve decided to continue your detainment.”
Huo Shaoheng was speechless.
“You don’t understand?” As General Ji spoke, he dramatically repeated what Speaker Logan had just told him and also explained, “I’m going to the Senate building to watch their surveillance video right now. I want to see how Nianzhi was able to take down Hong Kangquan without blood on her blade! You can just stay here and continue your detainment!”
