Chapter 118 Common Enemy
Timid and his mother looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.
"Dad, didn't you say that Uncle Rebrock was just sick? Besides, Uncle Rebrock is a rear admiral. Apart from you, my father, no one in the branch is his opponent. Why did he suddenly..."
Seti on the side couldn't help but be a little shocked when he heard this. He could actually kill a rear admiral. It seemed that the opponent Lieutenant General Duran was facing was not an ordinary person.
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but think of the underground auction mentioned by Jonathan. Could the death of Major General Rebrock be inseparably connected with this auction, or even with Medlin?
While Seti was wondering in his mind, Lieutenant General Duran on the other side held his head and said with some pain:
"Your Uncle Rebrock has watched you grow up. On the one hand, I'm worried that you won't be able to accept this fact. On the other hand, I'm worried that you will overreact after hearing the news and alert the enemy.
That’s why I never told you, thinking that I would tell you the ins and outs of the matter after everything was resolved, but I never thought that your reaction would be so big when you heard that you were going to Malinfando..."
Timid looked guilty when he heard this. Only now did he realize how much pressure his previous running away from home had put on his father.
Uncle Rebrock and his father were brothers. Hearing the news of his death, his father was probably heartbroken, but instead of understanding him, he ran away from home at such a critical moment.
At this thought, Timid's eyes turned red. He broke away from his mother's arms and took the initiative to step forward and hug his father:
"Dad, I was wrong, I shouldn't have been so willful..."
After hearing this, Lieutenant General Duran's original painful mood was relieved a lot. He looked at his son with a smile and said:
"Even now, you are still saying that there is nothing to do. As long as you don't have any accidents, dad promises you that he will not force you to go to Malinvando. But the next situation is urgent, and you can't do it during this time.
Don't run around.
If anything happens between you and your mother, all the previous plans will be in vain."
Seeing the warm scene of the family getting back together, Seti didn't want to disturb the three of them, but thinking that Lieutenant General Duran's various arrangements were probably related to the auction he wanted to go to, Seti couldn't help but speak.
road:
"Lieutenant General Duran, could what you are going to do next be related to the underground auction held in the Musa Kingdom?"
The warm look on Lieutenant General Duran's face disappeared when he heard these words. He looked at Seti and said in disbelief:
"This matter is a secret among secrets. How did you know about it?"
As he spoke, Lieutenant General Duran's aura suddenly rose, and his sharp eyes looked up and down at Seti.
He knew that Seti was a rare genius in this department for more than ten years, but this matter was so important that ordinary people had no way of knowing it.
In their navy, only officers above the rank of rear admiral are qualified to obtain relevant information from the intelligence department. How did Seti, a naval lieutenant colonel who was still in training, know about this?
Seeing Lieutenant General Duran looking over, Seti said without fear:
"To be honest, I went to the G4 branch this time. In addition to sending Timmead home, Lieutenant General Jonathan also assigned me to complete a confidential mission, which is related to the underground auction."
After hearing this, Lieutenant General Duran glanced at Timid and his mother, and after thinking about it, he said to them:
"You guys should go home and have a good rest. Next, I have some secrets that I want to discuss with Lieutenant Colonel Seti in detail. It is a disaster rather than a blessing for you to hear these things."
After hearing this, the two looked at each other and chose to leave knowingly. Before leaving, Meade's mother smiled at Lieutenant General Duran and said:
"No matter what, Lieutenant Colonel Seti is the great benefactor who sent Timid home. Husband, after you finish talking about business with him, you must invite him to your house for a light meal anyway, so that we can express our gratitude.
That’s it.”
After saying this, the two turned around and left the office.
Now only Seti and Lieutenant General Duran were left in the office.
Lieutenant General Duran took out a cigar from the drawer and lit it, and then said to Seti:
"Tell me about it, Jonathan sent you to find out what the plans are for this auction."
After hearing this, Seti did not hide anything and immediately told the story about the Falcon Pirates and the Bounty Fleet.
I heard that Seti first killed the Falcon Pirates, who were expected to compete for this year's pirate supernova, and then eliminated the bounty fleet composed of eight pirate groups. Lieutenant General Duran had heard some rumors before.
But he still looked shocked.
The assessment of Seti's specific strength has once again been raised to a higher level.
After hearing the ins and outs of the matter, Lieutenant General Duran took a deep breath from his cigar, exhaled a large puff of smoke and said:
"If my guess is correct, the enemy we are facing is probably the same person."
Seti was stunned when he heard this, and then said with some uncertainty:
"Could it be said that Medlin was behind Major General Rebrock's matter?"
Lieutenant General Duran's face was hidden behind the smoke, so Seti couldn't see his expression. He could only hear his slightly choked voice coming from the smoke:
"I'm not sure whether it's Medlin or not. I'm ashamed to say that although I wholeheartedly want to avenge Rebrock, I still don't know who the murderer was behind Rebrock's death.
But Rebrock was assassinated because he was investigating a missing child case.
To put it bluntly, it’s my fault. It’s all my fault that I didn’t take this case to heart at the beginning, which led to the unexpected incident that happened to Rebrock..."
While talking, Lieutenant General Duran told Seti the ins and outs of Major General Rebrock's assassination.
To put it simply, Rebrock, like Seti, discovered that there were stunned children in the pirate group's cabin after catching them.
However, because the reputation of this pirate group was not good and the reward was not high, Lieutenant General Duran did not take it seriously. He only regarded this pirate group as the kind of slave-catching group that specializes in refining slaves and sending them to Chambord.
Boat.
But he never thought that Rebrock would be assassinated just because he was tracking down the person behind this pirate group.
"Because I didn't take the case seriously, I didn't follow up on the specific details of the case. As a result, once Rebrock died, all the clues were broken.
However, the case you mentioned is very similar from the origin to the missing child case that Rebrock took over, so I guessed that the enemy we are facing this time is probably the same person."
As soon as Lieutenant General Duran finished speaking, Seti suddenly became excited. He slapped the table, stood up, and said excitedly:
Chapter completed!
