glory [rebirth]

This realization shocked Mu Qingtong so that he could not speak for a long time. If Lu Sien was really not his supervisor, then he was wrong from the beginning. Digging further for the truth.

Mu Qingtong felt very powerless. It seemed that he had been unlucky since he came here. His past work experience made him hit the wall again and again, and the facts repeatedly told him that his judgment had a serious problem.

"Lu Sien is not your supervisor." Lawson repeated, "I am."

Mu Qingtong: "..."

Suspicious neighbor stealing an axe.

Lynn had told him that this was a taboo in their work, but fortunately he didn't take too much action, so he didn't make a big mistake.It's just that his previous speculation turned into a joke in Lawson's view.

"Okay, Colonel, let's talk about my problem." Mu Qingtong suppressed the turmoil in his heart, took two steps back, lowered his eyelids to cover up his emotions well, and sat on the single sofa in front of the desk , with Erlang's legs crossed, spread out a hand to let Lawson speak.

"You have no right to ask." Lawson said expressionlessly.

Mu Qingtong's anger that had just been suppressed when he heard this sentence was ignited again. He stood up, stared at Luo Sen and said, "I have no right to intervene? I have made it very clear just now! This is you cooperation attitude?"

"Mr. Mu, first of all, please clarify your identity." Lawson's indifferent attitude almost made Mu Qingtong furious, "If we revoke the agreement, you will face a minimum of 15 years in prison. You have served in the Intelligence Department for 12 years. Years, didn't you learn the most basic principle of confidentiality?" Luo Sen's tone gradually became more serious as he spoke, and the two formally confronted each other.

"Confidentiality principle, are you going to tell me the confidentiality principle now?" Mu Qingtong roared, "What I need is to know the content of my mission, not to be under house arrest by you all the time! I don't need to mess with a group of freshmen at all, but you But put me here without revealing anything! You told me that I figured out my identity, I think I know very well now that I need information sharing, and I need to be respected at the very least!"

"Respect, are you here to talk about respect with me now?" Luo Sen asked in the same sentence pattern as Mu Qingtong just now.

Mu Qingtong tensed her masseter muscles, waiting for his next words.

"You keep talking about respect, but you haven't stopped your private investigation from the very beginning, and you have determined who your supervisor is based on your own imagination! Holding an empty form as a student, ignoring the principle of confidentiality and revealing your identity Dangerous, coming to the office building aggressively to threaten your immediate superior!" Rosen said coldly, "This is what you call respect."

"I..." Mu Qingtong was speechless, and he thought of many things in a flash. Could it be that the entire military academy belongs to several different forces?Lawson and the other leaders who recruited him have their own masters?

He also suddenly realized the consequences of being so impulsive in this office building full of cameras, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

However, without waiting for Mu Qingtong to apologize, Luo Sen continued: "You said you want to win trust, but do you know what the premise of trust is? With your inexplicable background, you still ignored the records of the last invasion of the military academy database system. The purpose of the intelligence department's private investigation is to gain unreserved trust? For us, your danger level has not dropped, and you have only been in the military academy for two days, so short that the three-day summary of the loyalty certification is not enough. Can't write! You say you want information sharing, but would I bet on the security of the entire country?"

Luo Sen's deep and hoarse voice was resounding in the empty office, and Mu Qingtong was powerless to refute him, and the two fell into a long silence again.

Mu Qingtong lowered her head, lowered her eyes, and sat back dejectedly.

"I'm very sorry." Mu Qingtong's throat was so dry that he almost couldn't speak normally.

Guilt, frustration, disappointment... All emotions burst out at this moment, and his heart was like a colorful and chaotic dye vat, sticky and dirty.

He thought that he had the absolute upper hand in this contest, so he deliberately gathered up his momentum and pressed forward every step of the way, just to disrupt Luo Sen's thinking and make him subconsciously compromise.

When on earth did he become so eager for success?To make such a low-level mistake.Such frustration made him so depressed that he couldn't breathe, and he couldn't even argue that it was the other party's disrespect first that forced him to take action.

Mu Qingtong couldn't forgive himself, such a naive mistake was completely unbelievable to him.

Why is this...

After a while, Lawson's communicator rang, temporarily breaking the continuous embarrassment.

After reading the information on the communicator, Lawson spoke again: "Every system has its own operating mechanism, especially the state secret department. Mr. Mu, I think you should be very clear."

Mu Qingtong sighed, slowly closed her eyes and nodded.

"So, as the person at the bottom of the mechanism, what are your responsibilities?"

Mu Qingtong's eyelashes trembled slightly, she calmed down and replied, "Obey."

Lawson glanced at him sideways and said, "Very good."

Then Lawson put down the communicator and said, "The operation you want to participate in is called 'Project Glory'."

"What?" Mu Qingtong didn't realize it, and it took more than ten seconds to realize that Luo Sen was about to have a showdown with him. He was still a little powerless in surprise, and he leaned on the sofa and asked, "What is the 'Glory Project'? "

"Mr. Mu, what is your original intention for intelligence work?" Lawson suddenly asked this question.

"Ah?" Mu Qingtong was taken aback, then reflexively said, "Maintain the peace, security and unity of the country."

Lawson put his hands on the table and interlaced his fingers. This is a more relaxed posture: "The Rongguang plan is exactly the same as your original intention."

Even with Mu Qingtong's machine-like brain, he couldn't understand the deep meaning of Luo Sen's words in an instant. After several rounds of this sentence, combined with Luo Sen's body movements, he finally realized it and asked: " Is the regime in the empire unstable, civil war?"

"Stop the civil war." Rosen corrected him.

"..." Mu Qingtong was thoughtful.

He once worked in the Counterintelligence Intelligence Service, they defended the country's intelligence network like a sealed iron bucket, countered terrorist attacks, and protected dignitaries.In addition to the most important ability to work, they also have one of the biggest characteristics - tight-lipped.

They are surrounded by secrets all the time. More than ten years of work experience have kept his mouth tightly guarded, and he will never disclose any valuable information to others.Lawson was sure of his point, so he was allowed to participate in this plan.

The military academy was originally intended to serve the empire, and after graduating from the intelligence department, students would be assigned to relevant departments at all levels, and then slowly disappear from people's sight.

According to the admissions process, he should be a special recruit, but his admission notice did not have a special red stamp on it, obviously his file had been changed.The special enrollment is under the management of Lieutenant Colonel Mario, but his notice was personally handed over by the vice principal, Lawson, bypassing Lieutenant Colonel Mario.

Lawson didn't want him to intervene in this matter, so there is only one explanation——

They belong to two forces.

So if it's not the regime that's wrong, there's no better reason to explain it.

There is only one empire on this planet, are they on the side of the civil war or the anti-civil war?

Mu Qingtong's intelligence collection this year did not involve the political power. He only knows that there is no successor to the royal family. After the previous emperor died in an accident, there was only the only heir left, who is currently 20 years old.

The law of succession to the imperial throne stipulates that the crown prince must be 22 years old to ascend to the throne of God, so the power is temporarily still in the hands of the crown prince's uncle, Marshal Hermann. According to the regulations, he will completely hand over the power after two years.

"So we will finally serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Mu Qingtong said cautiously, silently thinking about the judgment this time and hoping that there will be no mistakes.

"The blood of the royal family is weak, and the emperor left only one heir, His Royal Highness. We must ensure that he can succeed to the throne smoothly."

"It's...Marshal Hermann?" Mu Qingtong frowned, skipping the names of many high-ranking officials in his mind, and chose the most likely threat.

Luo Sen didn't speak, so he didn't need to make it too obvious when talking with Mu Qingtong, just mention it a little bit, and stop.

"Ten years..." Mu Qingtong said again, with a slight tremor at the end, obviously not getting out of the depression just now, "The enrollment plan says that after graduation, you will serve the Empire for no less than ten years, that is to say I have to work for you for ten years after His Highness succeeds to the throne? A total of 14 years..."

Mu Qingtong stared blankly ahead, he had to serve the empire for 14 long years, and sold them the best years of his life, but if he didn't agree, he might never be able to go home.

"His Royal Highness is currently in a very dangerous situation. The military department has controlled most of the military power, and the highest administrative power is still in the hands of the three governors. The time for power division is too long. Even if His Highness succeeds to the throne smoothly, he will not be able to Rule the entire empire smoothly." Lawson's words are very simple, there is no hidden meaning in it, and there is no previous persecution, only the most sincere loyalty of the soldiers, "The royal family must be stable. If Herman seizes power, the empire will Divide into three, four or more. This country needs to be united, and that's what we believe in."

Faith... Mu Qingtong hadn't heard this word for a long time, and at that moment he missed it very much. He felt the same way Luo Sen felt, and then nodded solemnly: "Colonel, I understand."

"I'm sorry." Lawson said suddenly.

Mu Qingtong was stunned immediately after hearing this: "Sir, why do you say that..."

"I'm sorry we pulled you into the water, but His Highness is already isolated and helpless. Even the military academy is full of Herman's forces. Your Highness needs a team that is absolutely loyal."

Even if there are many obstacles and mountains of swords and fires ahead, they will continue to serve the empire and the royal family one after another. This is the last glory of a soldier.

"This is the 'Glory Project'..." Facing Luo Sen, Mu Qingtong felt very complicated. At the beginning, he didn't have a good impression of this person. The unequal information made him feel insecure, and he was controlled by others. The feeling disgusted him to the extreme.Later, the malicious deception against him also made him very angry, but after Luo Sen told him so bluntly, he couldn't hate this person. He also served for two years, and then left the army to go to the Security Bureau. Their loyalty has not changed in the slightest, it is their belief, a long and passionate emotion, inherent in their nature.

"We only have two years to fully control Herman and avoid war to the greatest extent."

The last sentence shocked Mu Qingtong, his eyes wandered for a while, and he said after a few seconds: "Is my target Herman?"

"Yes."

"However, colonel, I don't understand one thing."

Lawson motioned for him to continue.

"When the empire was in chaos 14 years ago, if Herman wanted to rebel, why did he protect His Highness the Crown Prince? For such a long period of time, he is fully capable..." Mu Qingtong paused, and continued, "Have the ability to eliminate His Highness, but he didn't do that."

"This is what you will investigate in the future." Lawson said ambiguously.

Mu Qingtong thought for a while and said, "Colonel, can I make two requests? If it is abrupt, please reject it."

"You said."

Mu Qingtong: "First, try to increase my authority level; second, I need to have comprehensive information on Herman."

After pondering for a while, Luo Sen took out the communicator and pressed it for a while: "Please wait a moment."

Mu Qingtong knew that he was asking his superior for instructions, and waited quietly for an answer.

Not long after, Lawson received instructions and said, "Mr. Mu, the specific personnel of the Rongguang Project cannot be announced for the time being, but we can give you a list of personnel who have been confirmed to be Herman's subordinates, and Lusen is not among them. The intelligence will be in I will give it to you within a week, and if you find anything, you can report to me at any time."

Even though he didn't answer the question directly, Luo Sen had already made a big concession, which made Mu Qingtong very happy. He immediately stood up from the sofa, walked forward and stretched out his hand: "Colonel Luo Sen, happy cooperation."

Luo Sen froze for a moment, then stood up and shook hands with him: "Have a nice cooperation, Mr. Mu."

To be honest, Mu Qingtong has no sense of belonging to the empire at all, maybe because he almost made a big mistake, or because he resonated with Lawson, he agreed very simply.

But when he was about to leave, Luo Sen stopped him and said with a communicator: "Your Highness asked me to convey his most sincere thanks. He said that he will tell you all the answers when the time is right."

"...Thank you." Mu Qingtong said calmly.

Coming out of Lawson's office, although they had met each other frankly, Mu Qingtong didn't feel much relieved. One was to adjust his mentality, and the other was to prepare for the next task—the crown prince whom he had never met before. Slowly build up a huge intelligence network, surround Herman in it, then slowly gather it, and finally hunt.

He wants to find informants and partners, but his scope of activities is limited to this small military academy. This is really not a wise decision, or is there a reason why he has to stay in the military academy?Maybe there will be clear instructions after a while...

At present, he has no right to intervene in these matters and can only obey orders.

When Mu Qingtong walked away, Luo Sen picked up another communicator on the table, and before he could speak, a voice came from the other end.

"Good job, Lawson."

Lawson said respectfully: "This is my duty, Your Highness."

The crown prince did not answer.

Luo Sen pondered for a while, and said: "Your analysis of Mu Qingtong is very accurate, today's Fang..."

"That means it will succeed?" the Crown Prince interrupted his compliment.

"Yes."

"It's time for him to be honest for a while," the crown prince concluded.

Immediately, the communication was cut off, and a line of words appeared on the screen after a few seconds——

The duration of this call: 37 minutes and 53 seconds

Tokas Military Academy, Building B dormitory.

"Ah!" Mu Qingtong's head was constantly revolving those questions, and before she knew it, Mu Qingtong had already reached the door of the dormitory, and almost bumped into Lu Sien who was walking towards her.

After Mu Qingtong stood firm, he looked up at Lu Sien. The latter still had that indifferent expression, showing no signs of happiness or anger, but Mu Qingtong intuitively felt that he was unhappy.

Or is it because of the library thing?Mu Qingtong thought.

The two didn't confront each other at the door for a long time. Lu Sien just stood up for a while, then moved away, and walked forward with a water glass.

Mu Qingtong sighed, he felt a little embarrassed facing Lu Sien now, he misunderstood him as a supervisor before, and tried every means to get close to him...

Just entering the dormitory was a bit stuffy, Mu Qingtong took off his trousers and hung them on the stool. After putting on the big trousers, it was a lot cooler, and the windows were opened wide for ventilation.

Then open the diary and start writing in the diary——

I made two serious mistakes today, it was all due to my rush, my judgment... (crossed out)

They are doing things for the royal family, and I agreed to Lawson, which is probably because of my sympathy.If Lynn knew about this, she would probably complain about me again.

I wanted to stop the civil war. After I came back from Country I, I hated war to the extreme. No matter how much time passed, I couldn't forget those days.The ugliness of human nature is brought to the extreme in the face of death. Everyday life is full of betrayal, lies, doubts, and death.

The crown prince is a bit pitiful. He couldn't successfully succeed to the throne until he was 22 years old. Although the law of succession to the throne is for the stability of the empire, it did not take into account the issue of power division. Even if the administrative power and military power are not unified, they can be divided for too long... …

Mu Qingtong was writing, when suddenly there was a sense of oppression from behind, and the light and shadow reflected on the desktop also changed. He looked back suspiciously, but saw a scene that made his heart stop suddenly——

He just threw his trousers on the back of the chair, and the application form in his pocket fell out, but he was so absorbed in writing his diary that he didn't notice it.At this moment, Lu Sien was holding the blank application form.

Mu Qingtong didn't know which adjective to use to describe his fucking mood right now.

Lu Sien's face was still calm, staring at Mu Qingtong, word by word, his voice was as cold as ice, "Do you want to change the dormitory?"
