Wife is safe, cute baby makes trouble in the world of special forces.

At the guard post at the entrance of the base, the young guard Xiao Wang stared at the olive green SUV going away, reluctant even to blink for fear of missing anything.

The dust kicked up by the car had not yet settled, leaving a shallow mark on the empty road, like a gray ribbon, until it became a small dot in the distance, almost blending into the skyline.

He suddenly turned around and looked at the squad leader Lao Ma on duty beside him, his tone full of anxiety and confusion.

"Squad Leader, why didn't you stop us just now? Isn't it the rule of our base that no car can leave the base without a pass?"

"If this gets discovered by the higher-ups, we'll both be punished. We might even be transferred to logistics to move ammunition boxes, which is tiring and boring!"

He paused, and remembered what Lao Ma had just said into the walkie-talkie, and became even more panicked.

"Besides, why did you lie just now? Didn't the people above tell us to intercept them? How can you say we can't? Isn't this a blatant lie? If we get found out, we'll both be in trouble, right?"

Squad leader Lao Ma was squatting on the ground cleaning his gun.

He wiped the gun barrel repeatedly with a gun cleaning cloth until it was so shiny that his face could be reflected in it, without even a stain.

Hearing this, Lao Ma raised his head, frowned, and showed an expression of "You are still too young" on his face. He raised his hand and hit Xiao Wang on the back of the head.

The force was neither too light nor too heavy, just enough to make Xiao Wang feel pain but not get hurt, with a hint of disappointment in his ability.

"You're young, you don't know shit! Why stop him? That kid is a hero. He fought bravely and saved countless enemies. Do you know that?"

Xiao Wang rubbed the back of his head, his brows still tightly furrowed, his tone full of confusion, and his eyes a little scared.

"But...but I heard from Lao Zhang from the kitchen that he was put on trial today. Lao Zhang also said that the court said he deliberately set up the death of the Thunder Commando's Yan Wang. Isn't that a crime? How can we let him go? If the people above find out, they will definitely not let us off. I'm afraid we will be punished!"

"crime?"

Lao Ma sneered, his laughter full of disdain, and threw the gun cleaning cloth to the ground.

The oil stains on the cloth were a little dusty, but he didn't care. His voice was lowered a little, but it revealed his uncontrollable anger.

"You don't know how deep the water is. Just ignore it. Those people can't do anything to us. We just didn't have time to stop them. Just hold on to this sentence."

He paused, reached out and patted Xiao Wang's shoulder, his eyes full of heartache and his tone softened.

"That kid is going crazy because he's so wronged! When he made great contributions, no one recognized him, not even a commendation meeting. Now, he's been framed for no reason. Who wouldn't be angry? If it were you, would you be able to endure it?"

"If we stop him, wouldn't that be helping the bad guys bully the good guys? We soldiers have to have a conscience and can't just join in the fun!"

Xiao Wang opened his mouth but still didn't come around.

"But...but isn't Yan Wang a member of the Thunder Commando? The Big Black Commando and the Thunder Commando are not the same team at all. They don't even train in the same venue, and they hardly see each other except during drills. How could Chen Haonan have tricked Yan Wang to death?"

"This doesn't make sense logically. It's like asking the kitchen staff to manage missiles. It's completely unrelated! There must be something wrong, but we don't dare to ask!"

“There are so many things that don’t make sense!”

Lao Ma suddenly cursed, his voice full of regret, and even the movement of wiping the gun became a little heavier, and the barrel of the gun made a slight "clang" sound when he bumped it.

"Damn, how many years has it been since our base has had a commando as formidable as Dahei? Under the leadership of this kid, the members of the Dahei Commando have been completely transformed in just a few months. Every one of them is a capable fighter, with top-notch shooting, fighting, and tactics skills."

"This kid is a rare talent. His marksmanship is better than that of a veteran like me, and his tactical thinking is clearer than some of the office-bound staff officers. If he's given more time, Dahei will definitely surpass Langya and become the pride of our base! Why do you have to target him so much?"

He leaned close to Xiao Wang's ear, lowered his voice even more, and glanced around vigilantly, afraid that others would hear him.

"Xiao Wang, you're young and don't know the ins and outs of this—it's because Dahei is so powerful and so aggressive, showing signs of surpassing Langya. Some people are unhappy and feel their position is being taken away, so they're using the matter of the King of Hell to suppress him! Didn't you see how close Judge Fang is to Lei Zhan? I heard they even had a secret chat for a while before the trial began!"

"Hush... don't say that to anyone. Be careful of your words. We are just small soldiers and can't control the affairs of these big men. But we can't do anything that would make our consciences run low and let the heroes down!"

Xiao Wang was so scared that he nodded quickly and covered his mouth. His eyes were full of shock and his heart was pounding.

He didn't expect there were so many twists and turns here. He used to think that the army was straightforward and everyone was fighting to defend their country.

Unexpectedly, there were so many unknown calculations and suppressions. This was completely different from the army he had imagined.

Old Ma stood up and brushed off the dust on his body. The dust floated up with his movement and then slowly fell down.

He picked up the walkie-talkie hanging at his waist and pressed the call button. His tone was calm but contained unquestionable instructions.

"Attention, all sentries! Attention, all sentries! I'm Lao Ma! That olive green off-road military vehicle was going too fast. I couldn't see the license plate clearly. The driver was wearing a hat and had his head down, so I couldn't see his face clearly. Let it pass according to regulations! I repeat, let it pass! Don't stop me! If anything goes wrong, I'll take the blame. It has nothing to do with you. Don't worry!"

Several "Got it, Squad Leader Ma" were quickly heard from the intercom, with a tacit and refreshing tone in the voices, without any hesitation.

Only then did Lao Ma put down the machine with satisfaction, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of relief.

"I've been fed up with the Thunder Commandos for a long time! They're so arrogant, thinking they're senior, that they look down on people from other teams. Last time, they even snatched the mineral water from our sentry booth, saying it was sweeter than the water in their dormitories. They're so unreasonable! Helping Chen Haonan this time is a way to vent my anger and let them know that not everyone is willing to go along with them!"

He squatted down again and continued to clean his gun, but this time his movements were much lighter than before, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden. He even hummed an old song he sang when he was a soldier in his youth.

On the other side, in the SUV, Minister Li was thrown into the passenger seat, his hands tied tightly behind his back with a military belt by Chen Haonan. The belt buckle made his wrists hurt and numb, and even his blood circulation slowed down.

His feet were also tied tightly with a thick hemp rope. The fibers of the rope dug into his skin, turning the skin on his ankles red and even a little purple. It was difficult for him to move at all. The slightest struggle made him grimace in pain.

In fact, at the beginning, Chen Haonan just left Minister Li in the back seat and had no intention of tying him up.

He even left the back seat window open to allow the wind to blow in, for fear that Minister Li would feel suffocated and uncomfortable.

But just when the car drove out of the base office area not far, Minister Li took advantage of the moment when Chen Haonan was concentrating on watching the road and steering the wheel, and suddenly rushed to the back door. He grabbed the door handle with both hands and pried it outward with all his strength, shouting "Help! Someone is kidnapping me! Someone come quickly!" He used so much force that he almost broke the door.

Chen Haonan had no choice but to brake first.

Then, he found a thick hemp rope used for tying supplies from the trunk and tied Minister Li's feet with it, not too tightly, just enough to prevent him from moving around.

Then he was dragged from the back seat to the passenger seat, so that he could keep an eye on him to prevent him from jumping out of the car again, and he could also observe his condition at any time.

Minister Li was sitting in the passenger seat, still not giving up. He twisted his body desperately like a fish out of water, and his shoulders banged against the car door, making a "bang bang" sound. The sound echoed in the car and was particularly harsh.

He tried to get his face close to the car window, his nose almost touching the glass.

Minister Li shouted at the sentry passing by outside, using all his strength.

"Stop him! Stop this car! Chen Haonan kidnapped a cadre, he's a criminal! Arrest him! I'm Minister Li, please save me! If you save me, I'll commend you and even help you apply for a bonus!"

He shouted until his throat was hoarse, his voice was full of urgency, even a little pleading, and tears were almost coming out.

But the soldier in the roadside booth just stuck his head out and took a look, with no emotion in his eyes. Not only did he not move, but he turned around and went back into the booth without even lowering the electronic barrier.

The railings were held high, as if welcoming them to pass, with no intention of stopping them.

Minister Li's heart sank, and a bad premonition surged up like a tide, drowning his reason.

He wanted to shout again, but he saw the car driving towards the next checkpoint, getting closer and closer.

From a distance, he saw the electronic barrier of the checkpoint slowly rising, and could faintly hear the humming sound of the motor.

The railing rose quickly and steadily, without any pause, as if it was waiting for them to pass.

Even the soldiers in the sentry box turned their backs, pretending to organize their equipment, wiping their guns back and forth, not looking here at all, as if their car was transparent.

The car rushed past with a "whoosh", and the speed was so fast that the wind it brought blew the curtains of the guardhouse, causing the curtains to sway gently a few times.

The railing slowly fell down again, fitting seamlessly, as if nothing had happened, without even a hint of hesitation, and the movement was as smooth as if it had been rehearsed many times.

However, Minister Li did not give up and continued shouting outside with all his might.

"Stop him, stop him, he's committing a crime..."

As a result, Minister Li saw the same scene in despair.

One way, two ways, three ways...

Every time they passed a checkpoint, the gate opened automatically. The soldiers turned a blind eye and no one stepped forward to stop them. Some soldiers even secretly gave the car a thumbs up, their eyes full of support.

Minister Li looked at the base walls, training grounds, and warehouses rapidly receding outside the car window. Those familiar buildings flashed before his eyes and became farther and farther away.

His cries gradually weakened, from loud cries for help at the beginning, to soft pleas later, and finally, he could not even make a sound, only rapid breathing, and his chest heaving violently with excitement.

Minister Li's hope gradually disappeared, and was replaced by anger and even a bit of despair.

He didn't expect that so many soldiers on guard post were actually "letting go" and helping Chen Haonan!

These soldiers usually obey orders from their superiors, how dare they disobey orders today?

Is Chen Haonan’s influence already so great?

When the car passed the last checkpoint and completely left the base, Minister Li seemed to have lost all his strength. He collapsed in the passenger seat, his body as soft as a puddle of mud.

He tilted his head to one side, staring blankly ahead without any focus, muttering, "It's over... It's all over... No one is stopping him... No one is stopping him..."
