The sun shines on the busy port, and the sparkling sea reflects the white clouds in the sky.

The huge flagship was quietly anchored on the shore, like a giant steel beast.

And on the wide deck of the main ship, Zhang Ye was lying comfortably, enjoying the warm sunbath.

On the other hand, Jin Junli, who thought he would be punished for dereliction of duty, was filled with anxiety and uneasiness after successfully boarding the ship.

Although he had successfully walked in front of Zhang Ye, he still didn't dare to speak actively. He just stood there silently with his head hung, like a cowardly punching bag. His silence was so strong that people could hardly feel his presence.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Ye shook his head gently, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.

He couldn't bear to see Jin Junli cowering like that anymore, so he finally couldn't help but start teasing him, "Ali, could you please stop being such a coward? A real man, just speak up if you have something on your mind. Why are you being so bashful? You're acting like a sissy!"

Zhang Ye's words were like a breeze, making Jin Junli, who was originally extremely nervous, relax a little.

He took a deep breath, as if mustering up great courage, and slowly stepped forward.

Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled "thump" sound, and Jin Junli actually knelt down in front of Zhang Ye.

He lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke, "General, it was my incompetence and my failure to provide adequate security that frightened you during the meeting just now. I know my sins are grave, and I hope you will punish me severely! However, please rest assured, General, I have quickly arranged for a full-scale investigation. No matter what, I will uncover the mastermind behind this and give you a satisfactory explanation!"

After saying these words, Jin Junli still knelt on the ground, not daring to move, waiting for Zhang Ye's response.

"Hehehe..." Zhang Ye looked at the figure kneeling on the ground in front of him with his body trembling slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zhang Ye slowly walked forward a few steps, then bent down and gently patted his shoulder. His movements were gentle and natural, as if he was treating a close friend.

"Ali, don't be so nervous." Zhang Ye said gently, with a hint of relief in his voice, "I don't mean to blame you, get up." As the words fell, Zhang Ye reached out and helped Ali, who was kneeling on the ground, up.

Then he handed the documents on the table next to him to the other party.

"Since you are determined to pursue the responsibility to the end, I will no longer interfere in this matter." Zhang Ye's tone was relaxed and casual, but the trust contained in it was self-evident.

Jin Junli, who was confused, frowned and took the document with a suspicious look on his face.

His eyes fell on the document, and at first it was just a casual glance, but just this one glance made his face turn as pale as paper in an instant, as if he had been struck by thunder.

The document was filled with various texts and diagrams, which described in detail the ins and outs of the assassination.

From the initial planning to the specific implementation steps, and then to the identity and background of each participant, everything is clearly recorded.

What shocked Jin Junli the most was that the document not only successfully identified the mastermind within the resistance army, but even the huge force behind that person was accurately marked out.

Jin Junli widened his eyes, staring at the contents of the document, and his hands trembled slightly unconsciously.

He felt like he was in a terrible nightmare, everything around him became so strange and terrifying.

The chill quickly spread along the cold steel plate under his knees and rushed up to the top of his head, making him feel cold all over and his hair stand on end.

At this moment, Jin Junli was completely stunned, his mouth wide open, but no sound came out.

His mind was in a state of chaos, with countless thoughts racing through his mind. How on earth had he obtained this astonishingly detailed intelligence?

Who else has such omniscience that can investigate all this so clearly?

Thinking of this, a wave of shock surged in his heart, which took a long time to calm down.

horrible!terrible!

The powerful intelligence system of the Independence Army once again revealed its hideous face, allowing him to truly feel what it meant to be completely flawless and to have overall control.

It had only been three or four hours since the assassination, and he hadn't even officially started the investigation yet. However, they had already figured out the entire cause and effect of the incident, and had even mercilessly exposed all the forces involved behind the scenes.

To find out the beginning and end of everything so quickly, the manpower and material resources required as well as the intricate web of relationships are definitely not something that can be pieced together in a short period of time.

It is obvious that Zhang Ye must have planted spies within the rebel army, and this person must have a high status and can easily reach their most core confidential circle.

At this moment, Jin Junli's heart was once again filled with shock and he was deeply overwhelmed by this terrifying ruling power that was like a mountain crushing an egg.

At this point, he finally had an extremely clear and unforgettable understanding of the unfathomable true strength of the Independence Army.

"I'm quite relieved to leave this matter to you." Zhang Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, observing his dull, almost numb expression. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a faint smile. He said slowly, "As for whether to arrest this man or let him go, it's entirely up to you to decide."

Hearing this, Jin Junli, who was still immersed in shock, shuddered suddenly, as if struck by thunder, and woke up instantly.

He quickly knelt on his knees and kowtowed respectfully to Zhang Ye. With an extremely serious expression, he loudly assured, "Marshal, please rest assured! No matter who it is, disrespecting you is the greatest crime!"

After a brief pause, Jin Junli continued, "No one involved in this incident will escape punishment! They must all pay a heavy price for this and learn from their mistakes through blood!"

After saying that, he stood up without hesitation, with a resolute expression on his face.

Holding the document tightly, he turned around and hurriedly left the room. His steps seemed a little hurried, but revealed a firmness and decisiveness.

At this moment, Jin Junli knew very well that what was happening was both an unprecedented ordeal and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.

As long as he can successfully deal with these troubles and finally satisfy Zhang Ye, he will never show mercy even if he kills as many people as he can.
