Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 1009: The Source of the Plague (1)

After asking for leave from the team leader and returning home, Liu Jingxue immediately pulled Liu Jianjun and asked him about the things that had been bothering her for some time.

"Brother, you have been in the army and have been in the capital for so long, you should be well-informed. Have you heard about the higher-ups sending people to investigate the origin of the epidemic?"

Feeling a little bored, Liu Jianjun, who was practicing martial arts in the moonlight in the yard, did not stop his movements when he heard this. He replied,

“It’s easy to imagine that someone will be sent to investigate this kind of thing.

If we don’t know the cause and effect and try to avoid it, then the plague will happen frequently.”

"Then do you know the results of the investigation?" Liu Jingxue spoke directly.

Liu Jianjun nodded, "I know a little."

When Liu Jingxue heard this, she said hurriedly, "Then tell me about it."

When Liu Jianjun heard this, his movements paused.

He simply stopped practicing martial arts, stood up, and turned to look at Liu Jingxue.

"Little sister, why are you asking about this?"

"I'm just curious, I always feel that this plague came out of nowhere.

What’s more, it’s a new type of plague, which makes it even more puzzling.

I really don't think it is so easy for a new kind of plague to arise.

And it is even more incredible that it is circulated in this area.”

Liu Jingxue looked at Liu Jianjun and begged, "Second brother, since you know, then just tell me."

Under the moonlight, Liu Jianjun frowned, "Little sister, this is also a secret, and the higher-ups don't plan to make it public.

If I tell you, it would be considered a leak, which is not good."

Liu Jingxue pursed her lips and said, "Brother, even if this is a secret, it should be okay if you tell me.

After all, I was the first to discover and report this plague.

I also developed the specific medicine for treating the plague.

Even if the cause of this plague outbreak is kept secret from other people, shouldn't it be kept secret from me?"

Liu Jianjun remained silent. Although what Liu Jingxue said made sense, it obviously couldn't convince him.

Liu Jingxue rolled her eyes and said, "Second brother, I asked Grandpa Zou to write a letter to Grandpa Zhang about the cause of the plague.

After all, when I reported the plague, I told Grandpa Zhang to notify the military district here.

Grandpa Zhang should know the source of the plague.

Grandpa Zou asked him, Grandpa Zhang should not hide it.

In addition, now that Grandpa Zou's previous affairs have been thoroughly investigated, he will return to Beijing to control the secret forces as planned, so he will not hide it. "

"If Grandpa Zou knew, he would definitely tell me.

Maybe Grandpa Zhang’s reply is on the way now.

What's the big deal if you told me earlier? "

Liu Jianjun's expression changed, and it was obvious that he was somewhat moved by Liu Jingxue's persuasion.

“How about I go over there and find Grandpa Zou and ask him to ask you and he will tell me.

If he knew that you refused to tell me such a small thing, he would definitely scold you." Liu Jingxue threatened.

"Don't try to fool me with confidentiality rules. This isn't a very confidential matter. If even you know about it, then there must be a lot of people who know about it, and I wouldn't be the only one to know about it.

Besides, I’m not a big mouth, even if I knew, I wouldn’t spread it everywhere.”

Liu Jingxue snorted, "You are obviously targeting me.

I always think of you when I have good things to do, but you treat me like an outsider and don't even want to tell me this."

Liu Jingxue said as she walked towards the gate, "I'll go over there to find Grandpa Zou, Uncle, and Aunt, and ask them to teach you a lesson."

Seeing that Liu Jingxue was really going to file a complaint, Liu Jianjun immediately stopped her.

"You little girl, I just said one sentence and you started talking without giving me a chance to react."

Liu Jingxue insisted, "So are you going to tell me or not?"

Liu Jianjun raised his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. I'll tell you, isn't that enough?"

Liu Jingxue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. She finally caught this man. "Then why don't you tell me now?"

"Why did the plague only occur in this area? It actually has something to do with us."

Liu Jingxue felt a little puzzled when she heard this, "Second brother, how can you say that?

How does it have anything to do with us? Could it be that we caused the plague to happen here?

I don’t want to take the blame for this.”

"Do you remember that before the Lunar New Year, when we sent Mingxuan and Junhao to Xi City to take the train and borrowed their friend's house to rest, I accidentally discovered the suspected Japanese spy?"

It’s true, it’s been five months or almost half a year since the incident happened. If Liu Jianjun hadn’t mentioned it, Liu Jingxue would have almost forgotten about it.

“That’s what happened.

Since we can't stay there for long and investigate further, have you informed the police there about this matter and let them take over the investigation?"

Liu Jianjun nodded, "The police over there secretly monitored and tracked them, and successfully found their superiors and subordinates.

When they were about to close the net, one of the comrades made a mistake, which actually caught their attention and led to two of them escaping.

Although they were eventually captured after a while, they eventually escaped from Xi City and were captured elsewhere."

“Then this has nothing to do with the plague.

I asked you about the source of the plague, why are you telling me this?" Liu Jingxue was very puzzled.

"Wait until I finish speaking, and you'll know if this has anything to do with the plague."

"Later, through interrogating those who were arrested, we finally learned that they were very active during that period and what they were preparing to do."

Liu Jianjun looked at Liu Jingxue and said, "I think you know that the Japanese studied bacteria and viruses. They used them against our troops during the Anti-Japanese War.

The latest order those Japanese spies received was to spread the virus, or plague, within the territory of Xia.

However, due to their recent frequent activities, the Xishi Public Security Bureau learned that they might be making a big move recently, so they decided not to wait any longer and to close the net quickly to avoid causing a major accident.

But who knew that two people would still escape and be left wandering outside for a while.

Those two people were carrying the virus.

They knew they couldn't escape for long, so they took advantage of that time to spread the virus."

"When they were arrested and interrogated, they refused to mention the incident.

When the plague breaks out here, combined with their abnormal behavior during this period, and after prying open some people’s mouths, we will know their ultimate purpose.”

Liu Jingxue didn't expect that her guess was true. It was really done by those cruel Japanese devils.

She clenched her hands into fists, suppressing the anger in her heart, "Second brother, is this confirmed?"

Liu Jianjun nodded, “I dare not say anything about such a big thing.

Not only did I leave their phone number, I also wrote down the phone number of their Public Security Bureau director's office.

After returning to the army after the holiday, I would call him every once in a while to ask about his situation, but I never closed the net and got no results.

Later I went to Beijing, and was worried that they wouldn’t be able to find me on the phone, so I called them to ask, and that’s when I got this result.”
