A young boy from the 1970s, separated from his family, fled famine and led his younger brother into

"They will stop at nothing to make this child and everyone who knows his identity disappear from this world!"

General He's cold, emotionless words were like a bucket of ice water poured over Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun from head to toe!

It made them feel as if they had instantly fallen into an ice cave!

murder!

A shocking conspiracy targeting China's most elite military families!

And they walked right into it without even knowing it!

And he even brought the "core" of this conspiracy, this "bomb" that could explode at any moment, back home!

fear!

An unprecedented, bone-deep fear instantly gripped the hearts of Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun!

They are not afraid of death.

On the battlefield, they had long since disregarded life and death.

However, they were afraid of implicating their families!

They were afraid of bringing trouble to the complete family they had finally managed to have!

"Old He, what... what exactly happened?" Lu Zhenguo's voice was hoarse beyond recognition.

General He took a deep breath, his wrinkled face filled with solemnity and lingering fear.

"This is a top military secret. I shouldn't be telling you this."

"But now, you're already involved."

"Three years ago, after the plane crash involving Gu Changkong and his wife, the military established a top-level investigation team."

"Finally, they found something in the wreckage that shouldn't have been there."

"Residues of explosives."

General He said, enunciating each word clearly.

"Someone planted a time bomb on the plane!"

"What's even more frightening is that, according to the investigation, only a handful of top-ranking military personnel had access to that aircraft!"

"In other words..."

"There's a traitor in the Gu family!"

"And he was a high-ranking, extremely powerful mole!"

"Over the years, Mr. Gu has remained outwardly calm, but he has been secretly investigating this matter."

"But that mole was too well hidden! Like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, there wasn't a single trace to be found!"

"And now..." General He's gaze sharpened considerably, "this child who had been missing for three years has suddenly reappeared!"

"This is incredibly good news for the Gu family! It's a continuation of their bloodline!"

"But for that traitor, it was a death knell!"

"Because this child is very likely the sole survivor of that plane crash!"

"He probably saw or heard something!"

"So once that mole finds out he's still alive, he'll stop at nothing to silence him!"

"At that time, not only you, but the entire Northern Military Region could be drawn into this bloody battlefield without gunfire!"

After listening to General He's analysis, Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun were completely speechless.

Their faces were drained of color, leaving only a deathly ashen hue.

They finally realized just how terrifying a being they had provoked.

Just then, a clear, yet unusually calm voice came from the doorway.

"Uncle He, what do you suggest we do now?"

The three of them looked in the direction of the sound.

Lu Nianci had already walked out of the room at some point.

Her little face showed no fear or panic like children her age; instead, it displayed a composure that was almost cold and inhuman, beyond her years.

"Nianci? You... why are you out here?" Zhou Yayun hurriedly stepped forward, trying to pull her back into the room.

"Mom, I heard everything," Lu Nianci said calmly.

She broke free from Zhou Yayun's hand and walked step by step to the center of the living room.

She raised her head, meeting the shocked and complex gazes of General He and Lu Zhenguo, and said, word by word:

"Now, we are all in the same boat."

"There's no way to escape it."

"The only thing we can do is find the Gu family before those people find us."

Her words instantly dispelled the oppressive, suffocating atmosphere in the living room!

Yup!

What's the point of hiding?!

The opponent's energy is boundless! Where could they possibly hide?!

The only way to survive is to take the initiative!

It means getting in touch with the Gu family!

Use the power of that legendary family to fight against the traitor lurking in the shadows!

Lu Zhenguo and General He both looked at Lu Nianci with the eyes of someone looking at a "monster".

They couldn't believe that such calm analysis and decisive judgment came from the mouth of a five-year-old child!

"But..." Lu Zhenguo still had reservations, "How can we be sure that Xiao Shitou is definitely the Gu family's child?"

"What if... what if it's just a coincidence?"

"What if we send the wrong message and alert that venomous snake...?"

"It's not a matter of 'what if'," Lu Nianci interrupted him decisively.

"It's 100%."

She walked over to Lu Xiaoshi, who was sitting on the carpet, intently building an "airport" with blocks.

She crouched down and pointed to the "airplane parts" that her younger brother had neatly arranged and categorized using building blocks of different colors.

"Dad, Uncle He, look!"

"This is the wing of a fighter jet, this is the landing gear, and this is the cockpit."

"How could a three-year-old child be so familiar with these things if he hadn't lived in that environment from a young age, if he hadn't been exposed to it so often?"

Then, she pointed to the "concept design" that her younger brother had drawn at school that day, which she had secretly torn back from the bulletin board.

"And this painting."

"The design of the aircraft here has far exceeded the current air force technology level of our country, or even any country in the world."

"This shows that Little Stone's father, Uncle Gu Changkong, is not only an ace pilot."

"He is also an aircraft designer with forward-thinking ideas!"

"And what he designed could very well be our country's next generation's secret weapon!"

"This is perhaps why he and his family were silenced!"

Lu Nianci's analysis was progressive, logically clear, and watertight!

She perfectly connected all the clues—the jade pendant, her brother's stress-induced aphasia, his familiarity with airplanes, and that advanced design drawing!

It pieced together a bloody truth that was incredibly close to, or even the truth itself, for everyone!

Lu Zhenguo and General He were completely stunned by her terrifying logical reasoning ability!

They felt as if they were facing not a five-year-old child, but a meticulous and shrewd top strategist!

"Therefore," Lu Nianci concluded.

"Dad, don't hesitate any longer."

"Contact the capital immediately."

"Before the storm truly arrives, we must find the strongest support for ourselves and for Little Stone!"
