Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

at this time,

Inside the speeding car.

Xiao Zhan turned his gaze back to Xia Keke and said, "Yes, now multiple clues point to Yu Zhenguo. It seems that Liu Shiyuan's death was indeed a cover-up for the execution of the Mole Plan. He wanted to divert our attention in another direction."

"This also confirms that the Mole Project only had a core plan, but no real core executor. I even think that the entire Mole Project was divided into several phases, with each phase having a person in charge, and Liu Shiyuan was just the executor who initiated the Mole Project. Now that his mission is complete, he is dead."

Xia Keke frowned and said, "We all know that Liu Shiyuan was cornered and forced to commit suicide because we had no way to escape. It doesn't seem to have much to do with whether he completed his mission or not."

Xiao Zhan: "I've always felt that Liu Shiyuan shouldn't have died like this. His disguise to infiltrate the central government was a risky move with a slim chance of survival."

"In fact, as soon as he entered the central office, Wan Chongshan invited him to the lounge. We arrived shortly after, and then he died."

Xia Keke blinked and said, "You mean Liu Shiyuan knew that impersonating General Zhang was a dead end, and that Zhang Changshan was unreliable, but he still impersonated Zhang Changshan to enter the central government, just to attract our attention?"

Xiao Zhan nodded.

Xia Keke asked in bewilderment, "What was Liu Shiyuan after, who paid the price with his life? After all, when a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; all fame and fortune are gone. What kind of faith could make him make such a resolute and generous decision to die?"

"Was it all to cover up the continued execution of the Mole Plan, ultimately costing the lives of three generations of his family?"

"I can't understand why."

Xiao Zhan: "It's an undeniable fact that Liu Shiyuan is dead. Now, a new target, Yu Zhenguo, has been discovered. What role does he play in the Mole Project?"

"We don't know."

Xia Keke: "According to the intelligence gathered so far, Yu Zhenguo has emerged right after Liu Shiyuan died. This means that the Mole Project is still ongoing."

"So, should we take action against Yu Zhenguo now?"

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said, "Yu Zhenguo, like Liu Shiyuan, is just a pawn in the Mole Plan. It's not very meaningful to take action against him now. Of course, it depends on what the higher-ups want. If they say to take action, we'll take Yu Zhenguo down immediately."

Xia Keke said with some worry, "Xiao Zhan, you need to think this through. Taking action against Yu Zhenguo might implicate Uncle Yu, and even Old Master Xiao. This situation is extremely disadvantageous for you. What if someone with ulterior motives takes this opportunity to attack you? How will you deal with it?"

"Once you get involved in this kind of thing, you can't get rid of it. Plus, if someone with ulterior motives is secretly pushing things along, you'll be stuck with something, even if it's not shit. You won't be able to explain yourself no matter how many mouths you have."

A hint of worry flashed across Xiao Zhan's eyes.

He has weaknesses, family, and a sore spot; he has to think this through carefully.

Xiao Zhan then said, "I can only do my best to have a clear conscience, but the problem is that it's probably too late to avoid being implicated now."

Xia Keke: "The problem is that they don't trust you enough. You've just become the top dog in Beijing, and many people are envious. Also, what about those who were suppressed by Deng Zhi in the past? Will they transfer their hatred to you and take the opportunity to attack you, especially by surrounding and blocking the Xiao Group? At that time, you will be unable to fight against four hands and will be on the defensive everywhere. So before you take action against Yu Zhenguo, you need to think of a foolproof plan."

"You'd better extricate yourself from this."

Xiao Zhan sighed and said, "Sigh, I never thought that the investigation would lead to my own family. Yu Zhenguo is my grandfather's godson, and nominally my uncle. Once this kind of thing is hyped up and amplified by someone with ulterior motives, it will be really hard for me to explain, because explaining is just covering up, and some things only get worse the more you explain them. I need to come up with a foolproof plan now, to prepare before things get out of control, and to build a protective shield for the people around me to prevent them from being harmed."

Xia Keke nodded.

suddenly,

She recalled something she had seen before and said, "Xiao Zhan, we saw Grandpa Xiao and my grandfather with A in the Central Compound. We heard that they joined forces to thwart this conspiracy. It seems that Grandpa Xiao was unaware of Yu Zhenguo's affairs. Do you think it's possible that there is someone else behind Yu Zhenguo, not Uncle Yu and Grandpa Xiao?"

Xiao Zhan said with a serious expression, "I hope so. If it's really as you say, then things will be much easier."

"Otherwise, it will put me in a difficult position. It's ironic that the Dragon Shield Project has ended up in my own home."

"Even online novels wouldn't dare to write a plot like this."

Xia Keke: "I believe Grandpa Xiao was unaware of the situation and was an outsider."

Xiao Zhan: "What's the use of your belief?"

suddenly,

Beep beep beep…

Xiao Zhan's phone rang. Seeing that it was Bai Zexiang calling, Xiao Zhan answered and asked, "What instructions does Minister Bai have?"

Bai Zexiang said on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Zhan, you and Xia Keke need to come to headquarters immediately, there's something important."

Xiao Zhan: "Yes!"

"Clatter."

Bai Zexiang had already hung up the phone.

Xiao Zhan sensed something was off about Bai Zexiang. He'd always been very polite when they talked on the phone before, never putting on airs of a superior. But today, his tone, his attitude, and especially the speed at which he hung up—a sense of foreboding washed over him…

Xia Ke could see that Xiao Zhan's expression and state were not right.

So he asked, "What did Minister Bai just say?"

Xiao Zhan: "Minister Bai told us to rush back to the ministry immediately, saying there was something important."

Xia Keke said to the driver, "Back to the department."

Driver: "Yes."

Xiao Zhan thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and called Wan Chongshan.

Wan Chongshan was his former direct superior and also his instructor; their relationship was that of both teacher and friend.

"Beep beep beep!"

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

Wan Chongshan: "Xiao Zhan, has Zhang Changshan finished dealing with this?"

Xiao Zhan: "I've finished dealing with it, and I'll report the situation to you in person."

Wan Chongshan: "Okay."

Xiao Zhan added, "Chief Wan, the Mole Project is now targeting a certain person again."

Wan Chongshan: "Who is he?"

Xiao Zhan: "Yu Zhenguo."

Wan Chongshan: "That Yu Zhenguo from the Garrison Command?"

"Your grandfather's godson."

Xiao Zhan: "It's him."

After a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, Wan Chongshan asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhan, tell me what you're thinking?"

Xiao Zhan: "Follow orders and obey commands."

Wan Chongshan: "Aren't you afraid of implicating the Xiao family?"

Xiao Zhan: "Fear is useless, and hiding is not the solution. I believe that the innocent will clear themselves."
