The Real Test
Yu Manli let out a long sigh.
These words were what she should have said to Mingtai a long time ago, and she had been suppressing them in her heart.
Now that she said these words, she felt a sense of relief.
Regardless of whether Mingtai would find her cruel or not, she would be able to accept it.
Who would be willing to be partners with someone who had committed a family murder?
Was he crazy?
Closing her eyes, Yu Manli felt a familiar sense of loneliness. She didn't say anything and just immersed herself in it.
Mingtai saw that she was not in the mood to speak, so he did not say anything.
He didn't think that Yu Manli was cruel.
On the contrary.
He was very supportive of Yu Manli's actions against the criminals.
If it were him, his methods might be even more radical and brutal.
The harm inflicted on his loved ones was far crueler than the harm inflicted on him.
……
Back at school.
The two of them were brought to Wang Tianfeng's office by Guo Qiyun, who was waiting at the school gate.
It was already eleven o'clock at night.
Wang Tianfeng was still in his military uniform, standing behind his desk in high spirits.
Mingtai took a look when he walked in.
There were two red trays on the desk.
On the left tray was a fist-sized Cloud Command Medal and two captain badges.
On the right tray was a folded letter and two lieutenant badges.
"Welcome triumphant return."
As soon as the two of them stopped in front of the desk, Wang Tianfeng saluted them respectfully.
Mingtai and Yu Manli raised their hands in return.
The ceremony was over.
"Congratulations to the two of you for killing the Wei Nation's envoy, Kawahiro Hasegawa, in Hong Kong." Wang Tianfeng said solemnly.”
"According to the Army, Navy, and Air Force Merit Awards Regulations, I hereby award you with a 5th Class Cloud Flag Medal and promote you to Captain.”
Mingtai stood up straight and replied,"Thank you, Division Chief."
Wang Tianfeng didn't feel any emotional fluctuation because of his words.
He picked up the tray on the left and handed it to Mingtai. Then, he turned to look at Yu Manli."Yu Manli, from today onwards, you will be pardoned and removed from death row. You will regain your personal freedom and be promoted to first lieutenant.”
Yu Manli had been looking forward to this for a long time, but now, she didn't feel excited.
She was a sensitive person.
She could feel that because of this mission, because of her overreaction tonight, her relationship with Mingtai had already cracked.
This crack was like a new wound, preventing her from getting excited about anything that was happening in front of her.
"Thank you for your nurturing, Division Chief."
Yu Manli stepped forward expressionlessly and took the tray from Wang Tianfeng.
"I've already completed the award ceremony that the higher-ups instructed me.”
Finally, he saluted the two of them. Wang Tianfeng resumed his usual manner. He looked at the two of them with a scrutinizing gaze and slowly said,"Next, let's talk about the mistakes that you have made in the mission as my students.”
It was about to begin.
Ming Tai, who had already figured out Wang Tianfeng's thoughts, knew that the real test was coming.
Yu Manli had no idea about this. She only knew that Wang Tianfeng was talking about her.
Therefore, she took the initiative to admit," Reporting, it's all my fault. Ming Tai completed it perfectly. He also fulfilled his duty as a partner and stopped my operation.”
Yu Manli placed the tray back on the desk."I'm willing to bear all the consequences."
"Impressive."
Wang Tianfeng nodded, and then his eyes suddenly widened." Can you bear it?!"
"For this mission, how many people risked their lives to gather information for you, arrange equipment for you, and even disappear for you forever!”
"Just because of an enemy who has disappeared for who knows how many years, you have lost the basic rationality and judgment of an agent. Are you worthy of being an agent?!”
Yu Manli stopped talking.
The expression on his face did not change.
She was really prepared to bear all the consequences.
Her heart died.
He could accept anything.
Then, she saw Wang Tianfeng take out his gun and pull the safety on the spot.
He slammed the table.
"Today, I'll give you another lesson. I'll let you remember that an agent who can't control his emotions will only bring danger to others!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Tianfeng turned to look at the platform."Although your performance in this mission was perfect, I'm sorry, but military law is merciless. Because of your partner's terrible performance in the mission, the higher-ups have instructed me to punish you for the crime of disobeying orders.”
"Right now, you need one of you to die for the law, or the other to go to the front line.”
"Choose your own."
Yu Manli was stunned.
She had never thought that just because of her previous impulsiveness, it would lead to such serious consequences.
He was the one who had made the mistake, and his death was not worth regretting, but Mingtai was innocent.
Even if he died, he shouldn't be sent to the front line.
Wang Tianfeng retreated to the side.
He wanted to see how the two most outstanding students in the school would perform in the face of life and death.
