It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 736 Devil In One's Heart!

Li Shiyu's smile got deeper as he continued. "The specialists from the division headquarters and the military hospital felt that time heals many illnesses. After five years of relaxation here, there should be some changes in the mecha operators' conditions. The specialists and mentors in the hospital hoped the mecha operators could regain their abilities again. At the same time, they believed that these heroes who fought their way out of the battlefield do not want to continue being useless baggage to the Federation. They will constantly think of ways to try and regain their power again. No matter what state they are in, as a military doctor, I must help these heroes stand up again. Thus, the military hospital decided to send a military doctor every five years to 250 Ace Mecha Clan to examine these mecha operators to give them a new verdict on their condition. They do not want to miss the best time window for each mecha operator's recovery."

Li Shiyu's words made the actions by the 23rd division and the military hospital seem n.o.ble. The senior colonel felt a sense of danger, even if they made a mistake in handling the mecha operators, they could use this reason to push the blame onto others.

"This is the fifth year. After much discussion, the military hospital decided to let me take on this mission. This was a sign of their trust, and that is why I came to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. I have to thank Regiment Commander Ling for helping and cooperating with my work. He never tried to explain himself even when he was misunderstood." Li Shiyu gratefully saluted to Ling Lan.

Ling Lan saluted back expressionlessly. She seemed to be saying that this was her job and she should do it. Their interaction showed the other people that they were on the same status level and that Li Shiyu was not under Ling Lan.

"Facts proved that the headquarters had foresight. When I came to 250 Ace Mecha Clan, I realized many mecha operators showed signs of improvement. When I reported this back to the headquarters and the hospital, my superiors were elated. They ordered me to continue observing them and treat them."

"Youth knows no fear. The specialists and mentors agreed to my proposal. They decided to let me lead a team to be in charge of the treatment of the mecha operators in 250 Ace Mecha Clan." Li Shiyu was full of respect and gratefulness to the mentors in the military hospital. He respected how they ensured that there were no loopholes in the plan. Even if there was, they would cover it up and make sure that they didn't have to worry about not having a path of retreat.

At first, he thought this act was meaningless. Now, he felt that the headquarters was giving them protection. They were just too weak and couldn't handle such huge drawbacks.

"Oh, right. This treatment proposal was sent by our division hospital to the main military hospital, and it received approval." Li Shiyu added on.

The senior colonel's heart dropped. He never expected the military headquarters to have a hand in the treatments of these mecha operators. He was already going to give up on earning any merits from this case due to Li Shiyu's status, but now with the military headquarters having a hand in this, it would be better for them to stay further away from this case.

Since the other party had gained approval from the military headquarters, they couldn't touch Li Shiyu even though they suspected him. They had to confront the military headquarters if they wanted to do it, as the main military hospital was a part of the military headquarters. Only their superiors from the Military Law Department had the right to give an order to investigate them. The Disciplinary and Investigation Committee didn't have the right to do that.

Li Shiyu didn't care how frustrated the other party felt when they heard his words. He smiled gently and continued. "Fortunately, my treatment worked. Most of the mecha operators regained their abilities. Of course, I have to thank the mecha operators for cooperating with me for the treatment."

Li Shiyu was like an angel now, gentle and kind. The people from the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee started respecting him. This person saved more than 200 experienced ace mecha masters. 200 ace mecha masters might not be a lot when compared with the total number of ace mecha masters in the Federation but this proved that his treatment was effective. If any mecha operators fall under the same state as them, they wouldn't have to be forced out of the Federation anymore. His treatment could save millions of manpower for the Federation.

An experienced and capable ace mecha master was hard to groom, as there was only one such person among ten thousand mecha operators. Losing one was still a great loss to the Federation.

What Li Shiyu said stunned everyone, even the major sighed. He knew he couldn't turn the tides around anymore.

However, this did not mean that the major had given up. He had already lost everything but he couldn't accept the results. He started to speak without thinking. "This doesn't explain why some of the mecha operators accused him of tormenting them. You are covering up for him. You two are on the same side!"

The senior colonel was speechless. What the major said made sense but after Li Shiyu came out to explain everything, it meant that they no longer had the right to question them. It was stupid for him to keep pestering them.

The Federation was stringent towards violent behaviors by regiment commanders but towards military doctors, they turned a blind eye. All the high ranked specialist military doctors would do some illegal things. The Federation knew this however they didn't stop them. Some illegal actions were even done under the orders from the higher authorities. The Federation was clear that in order for military doctors to improve their skills, experiments were necessary.

Li Shiyu had healed 80% of these useless mecha operators back to their old form. This success rate was enough for the Federation to completely ignore his forbidden actions. If he had killed 10 or 20 people to get this result, the Federation would try its best to cover it up for him, the process of getting the result wasn't important compared to the actual result.

Not only that, Li Shiyu was acting on the orders of the headquarters. If they continued accusing him, wouldn't they be questioning the headquarters' decisions, his position might be taken away because of that.

The senior colonel dared to offend anyone but a highly acclaimed military doctor. Exceptional regiment commanders could be found everywhere but military doctors who could create miracles were rare.

Hence, he decided to abandon the major, as his status was more important than the so-called camaraderie.

Li Shiyu smiled when he heard the major's accusation. The aura around him continued to be warm and harmless. To the senior colonel, the smile was a devil's smile. Unfortunately, the major had lost his composure and couldn't see this. He still had the hope that he could win this argument.

"I will report your accusation to the main military hospital. They will personally explain it to you," Li Shiyu replied calmly. The major's face turned pale. He had regained his senses now. If the main military hospital stepped in, he would be the one that needed to explain himself. His career was gone now.

Li Shiyu ignored the major who was forsaken by the senior colonel. He said to the senior colonel, "Since your men voiced out his concern, I feel that you should take a look at these doc.u.ments. Then, you will know why someone wants to frame Regiment Commander Ling."

He pa.s.sed the doc.u.ments regarding the performance of the 50 useless mecha operators during their treatment as well as his final verdict on their condition to the senior colonel. The details of the treatment were not written inside to prevent any leakage of information, as some people might use the information to harm the mecha operators.

The senior colonel flipped through the doc.u.ments. The first thing he saw was the verdict on Kang Lincheng's condition. He read the report, and his heart palpitated furiously as he continued reading through the whole report. This report was enough to destroy Kang Lincheng's future.

Seems like Ling Lan and his men wanted to clean up the mecha operators that didn't listen to them. If they sent this doc.u.ment to the military hospital, Kang Lincheng would definitely be chased out of the military. He might even be put under house arrest to maintain the reputation of the military.

Evil! The senior colonel continued to flip through the doc.u.ments. Everyone that accused Ling Lan all had similar verdicts. Their situation was bad. However, those that didn't actively partic.i.p.ate in this were given a path of retreat. Those mecha operators thought that they did everything secretly but in actual fact, their opponents saw through their entire plan.

Impressive! Even when he was not in his base, he was still monitoring over it carefully. He had control over his entire base and knew what to do when a situation arose. The senior colonel respected Ling Lan for this, at the same time, he regretted his rashness.

With just one step, he lost everything. If he had been more cautious after receiving the statements of accusation and didn't come to find Ling Lan before obtaining more evidence, would the situation be different?

Frankly, the senior colonel was thinking too highly of Ling Lan. At the start, she was indeed caught by surprise.

However, the senior colonel gave her enough time to prepare. When he gave her time for her to wash up, Ling Lan made use of this time to calm down and ask her father for information about what had happened. Furthermore, the furious Little Four used his powerful search engine to find those people that betrayed 250 Ace Mecha Clan. As long as you did something, there would be traces left behind. As long as there was something left behind, Little Four would find it.

Since they knew who the betrayers were, Ling Lan would not forgive them easily. She pa.s.sed the list to Li Shiyu immediately. Li Shiyu was angry too. The two of them had put in so much effort so they could stand up again. How dare they betray them?

Soon, he came up with those doc.u.ments. Li Shiyu looked amiable on the outside but inside he was not. If not, he wouldn't have gotten the nickname, Dr. Frankenstein.

The senior colonel really made a big mistake this time. If the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee wasn't so eager in bringing Ling Lan back, they might have succeeded… okay, that was nonsense. If they did succeed, they wouldn't be able to bring her back either. Ling Xiao would kill anyone who possessed a threat to his daughter.

Li Shiyu ignored the senior colonel's trembling hands and smiled. "I have already sent a copy of this to the headquarters." He would not let these people have a chance to escape. After a while, they would be taken away. As for where they were taken to, it was not of his concern.

The senior colonel's hand stopped moving. He looked at Kang Lincheng pitifully. Kang Lincheng's heart dropped when he saw the gaze. He got agitated. Did they lose to Ling Lan? What does that look mean?

The senior colonel had no time to consider his feelings. He held the doc.u.ment tightly and ordered his men to go back.

"Leader!" The major shouted unwillingly.

"Shut up! Go back with me!" The senior colonel looked at him with a cold face. Is he not done with embarra.s.sing himself? Stupid pig!

The senior colonel decided he would kick this young man out of his position the moment he went back. This major would no longer be able to climb high in ranks anymore. No matter how hard he worked, his future was bleak. The people forsaken by the military had no future unless they met someone powerful who was willing to help them.

The people from the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee arrived confidently and left dejectedly.

Ling Lan sent them off with cold eyes. She said to Li Shiyu, "Thank you for taking the blame."

"It's fine. I have to thank you for recommending me to the higher authorities. It allowed me to obtain more resources." Li Shiyu's eyes glinted. He needed power and reputation. He needed more people acknowledging and helping him. This was the only way he could obtain more resources to treat his eldest cousin brother.

This was the devil in his heart. He would never be able to let it go unless he solved it.

Li Lanfeng looked at them with a complicated expression. He glanced at Li Shiyu secretly and looked down. He seemed to be thinking deeply about something.
