Tomb Raider: Nine Gates Let Me Be the Group’s Pet

"Master Buddha, Lu Jianxun wants to see you."

The guard at the door suddenly spoke, saluted and reported to Zhang Qishan inside.

"What is Lu Jianxun doing here at this critical moment?" Zhang Qishan was puzzled, but he had to have him invited in.

"Brother Jianxun, why did you think of coming to me today?"

"Brother Qishan, you and I are both straightforward people, so I won't bother you too much. So... I'll get straight to the point. Have you come to a conclusion about the failure of today's operation to capture Chenpi?" An ambiguous smile flashed in Lu Jianxun's eyes.

"It's my subordinates who didn't do their job well. I've just reprimanded them."

"Well, let's not talk about that. I just want to know what happened with the gunshot. Brother Qishan, have you found out?" Lu Jianxun raised his hand and changed the topic.

"Gunshot?" Zhang Qishan frowned, a little puzzled.

"We were about to capture Chenpi, but suddenly gunshots were heard. Chenpi was aware of it and the operation failed. Brother Qishan, you... didn't know about this?" Lu Jianxun pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhang Qishan.

"Adjutant, what's going on?" Zhang Qishan realized that Adjutant Zhang had concealed the situation from him, and asked with a frown.

"Master Buddha... I know I was wrong. Please punish me. The gunshot was... my gun went off accidentally. I was afraid that you would blame me, so I hid this from you." Seeing that Zhang Qishan was angry, Adjutant Zhang knelt down and admitted his mistake, and made up a lie to cover it up.

"Did the gun go off accidentally?" Zhang Qishan looked down at Adjutant Zhang in disbelief. He knew that his adjutant was always steady and such a mistake would never happen.

"……yes……"

"Tsk, you actually made such a simple mistake. Brother Qishan, according to the regulations, you will be subject to military law. You, the adjutant..."

"I will send someone to investigate this matter. If he deserves it, I will not let him go." Zhang Qishan interrupted him with dissatisfaction when he heard Lu Jianxun's gloating look.

"Okay, I feel relieved with Brother Qishan's words. I will go back and wait for news from Brother Qishan." Lu Jianxun got a satisfactory result and left.

What reason could there be for him to come? He just wanted to use this incident to find fault with Zhang Qishan. Seeing that the other party was unhappy, Lu Jianxun felt very relieved.

"What's going on!" When Zhang Qishan saw Lu Jianxun leave, he slammed the table and questioned Adjutant Zhang again.

"It's...just as I just said." Adjutant Zhang seemed to be shocked and replied after a moment of silence.

"truth?"

"The truth!" Adjutant Zhang seemed to have made up his mind, and answered firmly while looking at Zhang Qishan.

Zhang Qishan naturally would not believe such a ridiculous reason as the accidental discharge of a gun. At least he would not believe it if it happened to his adjutant.

"Master Buddha..." Adjutant Zhang seemed to want to end the matter quickly. Seeing that Zhang Qishan had no one to respond, he quickly opened his mouth to say something.

"Someone, go and get the young lady for me." Zhang Qishan rubbed his brows helplessly and gave the order, interrupting what Adjutant Zhang was about to say.

Who else could this adjutant do this for? I don't think there is anyone else except his own sister.

Zhang Qishan had only suspected it before, but when he saw that he was willing to accept military law, he became more certain of his guess.

"Buddha..."

"Shut up!" Zhang Qishan was already very annoyed, and when he saw that he was still trying to argue, he immediately stopped him.
