Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 3177



Yose no longer wanted to continue the topic. He pointed at the scene and asked, "What happened here?"

With a snort, Kohen accused, "Mr. Zheng, Lundie behaved recklessly. He rebelled and attacked Khalil. He must be punished according to the military law."

"Speaking of punishment, I think it's better for you, Mr. Long, to explain to Yose what exactly happened at Spring River," Fade retorted, his voice cold.

Yose waved his hand and gestured for them to stop the bicker. He then turned to look at Sohail and asked, "Mr. Yeu, do you mind telling me what's going on?"

Sohail stepped forward, took a deep breath, and gave him a thorough explanation.

'That's the whole story. We hope the headquarters will give this matter a proper investigation so that those members of the Combat Readiness Committee will not be sacrificed for nothing!"

Yose swept his gaze around at all the members of the Combat Readiness Committee, whose eyes were filled with rage and nodded, reassuring, "We will definitely give this matter a careful investigation."

His gaze then fell on Kohen as he asked, "Mr. Long, do you have anything you want to say?"

Kohen's eyes squinted as he paused before deciding to say, "I'm not in charge of Team 5, so I have no idea what happened."

"What about you, Khalil?" Yose turned to look at him.

Only then did he realize that Khalil had been knocked out by Kohen and was currently unconscious.

"

At the sight of that, Yose made up his mind to say, "If that's the case, we can only investigate this matter in detail after Khalil wakes up.' "It's getting late. You all have been battling all day. It's time for all of you to go and get some rest. You all may leave," Yose announced. Riccardo could not take it anymore. Visibly overwhelmed with emotions, he spoke up, "Mr. Zheng, that's it? Does it mean that the members of the Combat Readiness Committee have died for nothing?"

"Riccardo, I did say we were going to investigate, right? The most important thing now is for you all to get some rest and recover. Besides, we're still on the battlefield. Are you sure you want to hold a trial right here?" Yose asked in return.

"But..." Riccardo tried to express his doubts.

Cohail and Sheldon, however, stopped him in time.

Yose waved a dismissive hand and gestured for everyone to leave the place.

He then turned around and was about to leave when Fade's voice sounded from behind him.

"Mr. Zheng, I look forward to receiving a satisfactory explanation from you."

When Yose heard that, his brows furrowed into a deep frown. He gave Fade a deep stare before saying, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen. The headquarters will definitely give this matter a thorough investigation."

With that, he turned around and left.

Fade dropped another bomb, saying, "Mr. Zheng, I have something to tell you. Daryl of the Dragon Force is dead."

"What? He's dead? What happened? That explains why I haven't met him during this period." Dumbstruck, Yose bombarded him with a series of questions.

Kohen, on the other side, shot Fade a fierce glower, with murderous intent flashing across his eyes.

After studying Yose's surprise and puzzlement, Fade spoke after a moment's pause, "Mr. Long should know this better than I do. Mr. Zheng, I think it's better for you to ask him."

With that, Fade turned around and left.

Yose was left bursting with curiosity and bewilderment. He wanted nothing more than to stop Fade from leaving and ask for a thorough explanation of what had happened.

When they returned to the camp, Riccardo and Sheldon lost all their exhaustion. They pulled Fade to one side and tried to get to know more about what he had been through during that period. All the while, they had been wondering about the reason behind his disappearance and lost contact.

Fade gave them a perfunctory reply by saying that he had encountered trouble the last time he visited Yandover City for an investigation. That explained his delay in his return.

As for the specifics, which involved Kohen's attack on the city by manipulating the vicious beasts, he did not want to disclose all the details to them for the time being.

The next day, the Joint Army did not make a move nor launch an attack. The hard-earned peace might be a result of the terrible defeat the day before.

The news of the night's events rattled the troops.

The confrontation between Team 5 and Combat Readiness Committee the previous night spread throughout the team as many began to gossip and tried to speculate the causes behind it.

At three in the afternoon, Sohail and Kohen were summoned to the headquarters. They held a small meeting to convey the investigation results.

Ine

As soon as Sohail returned to the Combat Readiness Committee camp, he was instantly surrounded by a large crowd, among which included Riccardo and Sheldon, who wasted no time to ask, "What did the headquarters say? What's the result of the investigation?"

With a solemn face, Sohail withdrew a piece of paper and handed it to them.

Skimming through its details, the few of them were instantly seething.

"What the hell is this? Is this what they came up with?! They're trying to fool us!"

"Khalil, the commander of Team 5 with a team of more than a hundred soldiers, allowed his enemy to pass through his defenses and arrive at Spring River. The explanation given was that it was all an accident?! That's it?!"

"Yose is obviously siding with them. The members of the Combat Readiness Committee have died in vain. I can't accept this result! I'll go to the headquarters right this instant and demand a proper explanation!"

With that, Riccardo rushed out the door.

Right then, Fade shouted and called out to him, "Riccardo, hold on!"

"Brother Chen, don't try to persuade me into accepting the result. I have huge respect for you, but I won't let this matter slide even if you ask of me. This is too much! I can't take it anymore!" Riccardo spat through his gritted teeth.

To his surprise, Fade did nothing to stop him but instead, walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and stated, "I'm not stopping you from going so. I was planning on tagging along."

"Oh..." Riccardo was initially stunned before a surprised smile blossomed on his face, "Brother Chen, that's great. I'm much more confident with you around."Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Sheldon walked over and offered, "I'll go with you as well."

Sohail approached from behind.

Fade's words stopped him in his tracks. "Sohail, someone needs to lead the team. Why don't you stay?"

"I... I..." Sohail stuttered.

Fade gave him a firm pat on his shoulder and reassured, "Sohail, don't worry. Regardless of whether you come along with us or not, we're on the

same team."

Sohail halted in his tracks and heaved a deep sigh. Looking at the three of them, he decided to say, "Alright then. Be careful!"

The three nodded and strode towards the headquarters.

Soon, they arrived at the headquarters and were stopped at the door.

"We're here to meet Mr. Zheng. We have important military information to report,"

Sheldon explained.

The guards did not show the slightest intention to let them enter. "I'm sorry, but Mr. Zheng is not in right now. Please leave!"

"He's not in?" Riccardo stubbornly rebuked, "Why won't you let us in while we wait for his return?"

The soldier remained unwavering as he shook his head. "I'm sorry. This is the headquarters. No one is allowed to enter without permission."

Hearing that, Riccardo boiled with rage. His neck strained to the point of his veins bulging as if he was about to pick a fight with the soldier.

Fade standing behind him dashed past the guards and charged straight into the office.

The guards were shocked at the sight.

"How dare you!"

"Get ready to attack!"
