Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1470: No Matter How We Go About

Gu Nianzhi was completely dumbfounded.

The Soviet Union?

Hadn’t that country collapsed decades ago?

She still remembered the famous “East-soviet uprising” in history.

Almost overnight, a huge country collapsed in the dust of history.

Although Russia later inherited most of the Soviet Union’s legacy, it was only a legacy.

The Soviet Union collapsed like a giant, and the republics that had joined it became independent countries.

The Iron Curtain was no longer in place, and the United States stood alone. This led to a major change in the power dynamic of the Blue Planet.

Huo Shaoheng’s department also organized to watch a documentary produced by the state television station every year — “XX Anniversary Of The Soviet Union’s Revolution.”

Gu Nianzhi watched it six times as well...

On average, she watched it once a year.

But why was the Soviet Union still on the news here?

Was the broadcaster wrong?

Gu Nianzhi felt very uneasy.

Pushin hadn’t changed at all, just like the one she had seen in Moscow in the first half of this year.

Vladimir and the middle-aged driver were even more so. Their voices and appearances were the same as they were in the other dimension.

Pooh! Pooh! Pooh!

That saying was used to describe dead people. They were still alive.

Gu Nianzhi frowned as she stared at the television. She wished she could use software to analyze every single scene, frame by frame, to see what exactly was going on.

On the high-definition television screen, three Huaxia Empire men were shaking hands with Pushin.

Wearing a military uniform, the man in the lead was tall. His hair was grey, and he smiled sideways at the camera. His pair of familiar almond-shaped eyes made Gu Nianzhi almost cry out in shock.

“Brother Little Ning, this... General He Chengjian, who is he?” Gu Nianzhi’s voice was trembling.

Qin Zhining smiled proudly and poured himself a glass of wine. “That is my pillar of support I told you about. The people here have no choice but to give me face.”

Gu Nianzhi looked at him with a pale face. Her large eyes looked empty and listless.

Qin Zhining’s heart softened and he said softly,”... He’s my uncle, my cousin He Zhichu’s father.”

Gu Nianzhi had already guessed it. Now that she had confirmed it, it felt as if the other shoe on her head had fallen to the ground.

“... He’s the general?”

“Yes, he’s the highest-ranking official of the Military Supreme Council.” Qin Zhining sat up straight and looked at the handsome man on the television admiringly.

Gu Nianzhi bit her lip lightly and lowered her voice, “... He’s the highest-ranking officer of the military? What about General Ji?”

“General Ji?” Qin Zhining frowned, “What General Ji? There are only ten generals in the military, and none of them have the surname Ji.”

Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and pinched her thigh hard.

The excruciating pain jolted her entire body and cleared her mind.

When she opened her eyes again, the people on the television were still the same.

Speaker Long, in particular, was the Speaker Long that she knew.

But General Ji was gone and replaced by General He.

The prime minister wasn’t Bai Jiancheng, but Xie Beichen.

Eh?

Xie Beichen?

That name was so familiar.

Gu Nianzhi searched her memories carefully and finally remembered that the son of Major General Huo’s great-uncle was called Xie Beichen...

He should be Major General Huo’s uncle.

But hadn’t he always been doing business abroad?

How did he become the Prime Minister of Huaxia Empire?

Right, since Xie Beichen was the prime minister, what about Major General Huo?

Gu Nianzhi asked nervously, “... what about General Huo? Do you know General Huo? The director of the Military Political Department?”

Huo Guanchen, the director of the Military Political Department, was the general, and Huo Shaoheng’s father.

She didn’t dare ask him directly about Huo Shaoheng, but instead asked about him in a roundabout way.

“No.” Qin Zhining shook his head. “There’s no General Huo among the top ten generals.”

When Gu Nianzhi asked about General Huo, Qin Zhining suddenly understood what she meant.

He looked at Gu Nianzhi with a half-hearted smile, poured her some juice, and casually changed the topic. “Don’t think about it. Maybe you have a bad memory and remembered wrongly. By the way, didn’t you lose your memory?”

They had strict discipline. This mission was top secret and couldn’t be told to anyone, including Gu Nianzhi.

So he couldn’t say too much to Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi’s heart sank when she saw Qin Zhining’s smiling face.

She was sitting on the chair, but now she felt like she had suddenly lost her footing and fell from the sky.

She lowered her head silently and caressed the couple’s watch on her wrist that Huo Shaoheng gave her. Her heart was in a mess.

The time shown on her watch was exactly the same as the time shown on the television. It was 2XXX, X month, X day, X time.

However, everything seemed to be wrong.

If everything in front of her wasn’t reality, she would think that she was dreaming, or that she had gone crazy and was hallucinating.

How could her memory not be good?

Even if she had lost her memory and had forgotten everything that happened before she was 12, she could still remember everything that happened between the ages of 12 and 19.

Qin Zhining’s words were more like a lie to a three-year-old child.

“... Do you think I’ll believe you if you say that?” Gu Nianzhi’s large eyes narrowed, and her expression was as calm as water. “Do you think I’m an idiot?”

Qin Zhining was silent for a moment, then said, “Of course you’re not an idiot, but regarding some things, there’s indeed a problem with your memory.” As he spoke, his gaze inadvertently swept across the corner of the room.

Gu Nianzhi opened her mouth, and suddenly understood what Qin Zhining meant.

There was probably a surveillance camera in this room, so he couldn’t or didn’t dare say certain things.

However, Gu Nianzhi wasn’t going to let this go so easily.

She glared at Qin Zhining hatefully, opened her mobile browser, and began to search the internet.

She had just searched “Soviet Union” when countless relevant links popped up.

She chose a wikileaks link and glanced at it. Gu Nianzhi was in a bad mood.

The wikileaks that she had seen showed that the eastern part of the Soviet Union had indeed experienced a revolution decades ago, but it hadn’t changed drastically. Instead, it had persevered through the most difficult period.

The Soviet Union didn’t collapse. It had always been the Soviet Union.

The Committee of State Security (KGB) of the Soviet Union launched a coup at the last moment of the turmoil. Disregarding public opinion, they overthrew the government of the leading party in the Soviet Union. They tried to dissolve the government of the leading party in the Soviet Union, and replaced it with someone who supported the unification of the Soviet Union.

The Committee of State Security (KGB) was the most powerful organization in the Soviet Union. The Committee of State Security (KGB) was the most powerful organization in the Soviet Union. Therefore, the Soviet Union preserved and continued to develop until now. The highest-ranking leader of the Soviet Union, Pushin, was from the KGB.

Gu Nianzhi’s face turned paler and paler. She ran her fingers through her phone and clicked on one link after another.

The people here and the news here were similar to what she knew, but there were always major differences in some key areas.

She searched the top ten generals, but there was indeed no General Ji or General Huo.

She also searched the Senate. Speaker Long’s resume was exactly the same as what she knew. It was the Speaker Long she had known in the Senate.

She didn’t know much about Xie Beichen, so she couldn’t tell if he was the Xie Beichen that she knew.

“What the hell is going on?!” Gu Nianzhi finally spoke. Her voice sounded especially frightened. Her eyes red, she looked up at Qin Zhining.

Qin Zhining knew that she was about to cry again. He looked at her sympathetically and couldn’t help patting her shoulder. “Okay, okay. You really should stop thinking about it. Actually, none of this is important. What’s important is that this is your home. Nianzhi, welcome home.”

Gu Nianzhi had a throbbing headache as she looked at the table full of delicacies. She had no appetite at all.

The impact was so great that she was in complete emotional turmoil.

Immediately after, the news about the United States was broadcast on the television.

It turned out that the president, who liked to tweet, had tweeted again about Pushin’s visit to China.

Gu Nianzhi looked at the image of New York on the television and was speechless.

The two tall Twin Towers stood perfectly upright on the screen and created a unique view of New York.

There were actually twin towers here...

Gu Nianzhi’s face was ashen. “... Didn’t those twin towers collapse from the plane crash more than a decade ago?”

“No, they didn’t.” Qin Zhining raised his eyebrows. “Nianzhi, you really remembered wrong. It’s very dangerous for you to continue like this. I’m telling you, you’ll be pulled to a psychologist for a test.”

Hearing Qin Zhining’s hint, Gu Nianzhi couldn’t take it anymore. Her body went limp. She fell under the table and fainted.

“Nianzhi?!” Qin Zhining was terrified. He quickly picked her up and called the imperial capital. “... Get me General He!”

Ten minutes later, Qin Zhining carried the unconscious Gu Nianzhi on a private plane and quickly flew to the imperial capital.

..

In the capital’s private airport, He Chengjian personally led people to welcome her.

As soon as the plane landed, the He family’s specialized medical staff boarded the plane to examine Gu Nianzhi.

She hadn’t eaten much for nearly 24 hours and was extremely weak.

The experienced family doctors quickly put water in Gu Nianzhi and then placed her on a stretcher to carry her down from the plane.

“General He, the mission is complete! Colonel Qin Zhining has completed his report!” Qin Zhining saluted in front of He Chengjian and shouted.

“Thank you for your hard work.” He Chengjian patted him on the shoulder. “I knew it wouldn’t be a problem to send you.”

He hadn’t expected something so simple to go wrong halfway through.

Fortunately, Qin Zhining had gone to pick her up personally. Otherwise, even if Gu Nianzhi had returned, who knew where she would end up..

He Chengjian shuddered at the thought of the consequences, but his expression didn’t change.

He walked over to the stretcher and looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was lying on it.

He hadn’t seen her for seven years. In his memory, she was still that chubby little girl who had been carefully taken care of and raised by his cold-hearted son, He Zhichu.

Although he had seen the photos later and knew that she had grown into a beautiful and lively young lady, he had never seen her in person. There was always a gap between them.

When she had seen her in person today, he had realized that the photos were still a little worse than her in person.

She still had this kind of charm even when she was unconscious. She would be even more adorable after she woke up.

He Chengjian couldn’t help but laugh. He reached out to tuck her into the blanket and said gently, “Is she okay? You say that she suddenly fainted?”

“The doctor said that she was extremely weak.” Qin Zhining smiled a little sheepishly. “She... suffered extreme mental shock, so she couldn’t process it for a moment. She hadn’t eaten for more than 20 hours...”

“No wonder.” He Chengjian nodded. “It’s good that she’s fine.”

Qin Zhining watched as the doctors loaded the stretcher onto the ambulance. Gu Nianzhi lay alone on the stretcher, a little worried. “General he, I think I should follow her to take a look.”

He Chengjian didn’t stop her. He said calmly, “This is still your mission. Until she gets home safely, you can’t let your guard down.”

“Yes, Chief.” Qin Zhining raised his hand and saluted. After hesitating for a moment, he asked in a low voice, “General He, her physical condition isn’t very good. Don’t perform that surgery on her, right?”

According to their rules, anyone who participated in this top secret operation would undergo a special surgery, removing all memories related to this mission, after the mission ended.

Qin Zhining was a special forces soldier, and the other four people who were on the mission were private guards of the He family.

It didn’t matter if they accepted the surgery or not. It wouldn’t affect their work and life in the future anyway, but Gu Nianzhi was different.

If they were to remove seven years of her memories related to this aspect, and she didn’t have any memories from before the age of twelve, then her nineteen years of life would be a blank.

She would also go from being an intelligent woman to an idiot who didn’t know anything.

Was this result really what they wanted?

He Chengjian was silent for a moment before he said, “It will depend on what Director Qin says. I believe in Director Qin’s professionalism.”

The “Director Qin” that He Chengjian mentioned was his wife, Qin Yaoguang. She was also the director of the largest private hospital in the Huaxia Empire.

When she was at home, she was called Auntie Qin.

Qin Yaoguang was the absolute authority in the field of brain surgery, which was also the field of neurosurgery.

Over the years, Qin Yaoguang was the one who personally operated on the soldiers who had to perform the memory removal surgery for special missions.

Although Qin Zhining couldn’t bear it, he didn’t say anything further. He turned around and strode into the ambulance.

He Chengjian stood beside the runway of the airport. He didn’t get into the car until the ambulance had left.

The motorcycles in front cleared the way, and the two military vehicles behind them were full of armed soldiers. They protected He Chengjian’s bulletproof sedan in the middle and drove toward the He family’s mansion on Erhuan.

..

The He family’s mansion was brightly lit in the middle of the night.

The servants were dressed in neat uniforms and ready to welcome the guests home, they lined up at the door.

Wen Shouyi stood at the window of a bedroom on the second floor. She looked at the huge crowd at the door and sighed, then said, “Auntie Qin, why do you think General He is doing this? I heard that Gu Nianzhi has already fainted and is still unconscious. No matter how we go about, she can’t even see such a grand entrance...”

The woman she called Auntie Qin was He Chengjian’s wife, Qin Yaoguang.

She had just finished a day of surgery and was very tired.

She sat on the sofa with her arms crossed over her chest and looked a little helpless. “Brother He is a loving person, so it’s only right that he does this. After all, Nianzhi is too important to Zhichu.”

Wen Shouyi turned around, then saw Auntie Qin sitting quietly beside the sofa and under the warm yellow light. She was wearing a cherry blossom yellow qipao. Her posture was dignified and elegant. She looked like an ancient lady who had just stepped out of a painting.

Her skin was snow-white, and she had an oval face. Her nose was straight, and her lips were bright red. There were no wrinkles on her face at all. She didn’t look like a woman in her forties at all.

As they were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of a car braking downstairs.

Wen Shouyi turned to look again and saw an ambulance drive in first, followed by two motorcycles.

He Chengjian’s bulletproof car followed.

The door of the ambulance in front opened first, and Qin Zhining jumped out while pushing a stretcher out.

Qin Zhining helped to hold the bottle, and there was a person lying on the stretcher.

From a distance, she couldn’t see clearly, but Wen Shouyi could tell that it was that drama queen Gu Nianzhi.
