Salute To The General

Chapter 1493 First Class Merit

That night, Nathan called Hansel Windsor, the President, to report on the progress.

He said in his deep voice, "Christopher Windsor is dead. A large sum of money is missing, and wecan only barely find out that he was in contact with Boris Tucker. However, there's no strongevidence to prove that Boris Tucker is related to this case."

Hansel Windsor said slowly, "After such a huge commotion, there's still no evidence against BorisTucker? Is it impossible to take down this sly old fox?"

Nathan answered, "I was careless. I didn't expect Christopher to have a death wish."

If Christopher didn't die, I could have surely uncovered more evidence. What a pity.

Hansel chided, "This is not your fault! Since we didn't have evidence against Boris Tucker this time,he and his people would become wary. It might be difficult to find evidence of his crime again."

He then said, "Let's have Hailey investigate these matters. She is in charge of this, after all. Spendmore time with your family while you're still on holiday. When it's over, you will have to go to thefrontier to guard the Northern border again.”

"Yes, Sir!"

Hansel then added, "This time, you and Hailey have made huge contributions discovering theserious disciplinary problem in the Mayberry military base. I will get the organization to reward youguys."

Nathan hurriedly interjected, "I didn't contribute much. The Captain of National Guards, ColinDunne, almost lost his life getting the ledgers as evidence. His contribution is significant. I requestthat he be smartly rewarded."

Hansel smiled. "I also heard about the brave deeds of that kid. Let's give him the first-class merit!"

Nathan grinned. "I thank the President on his behalf."

He then hung up on the phone call and handed the remaining responsibilities for the case over toHailey.

Then, he took the Elite Eight and the Eighteen Riders of the North to the hospital to visit Colin.

By now, Colin had finished receiving treatment for his injuries. He had recovered his vision, and hishearing had also returned.

Wrapped in layers and layers of bandages, he looked like a mummy.

However, he had a strong physique, so he had recovered a lot of energy in just half a day.novelbin

Upon seeing Nathan, he immediately sat up, trying to get out of bed to salute him.

Nathan hurriedly held him down and said angrily, "You're badly injured! You shouldn't be movingaround!"

Colin chuckled, letting out a smile, "It doesn't matter! If it weren't for those bastards who secretly puta bomb next to me and wounded me, they wouldn't have been able to hurt me."

Nathan, the Elite Eight, and Eighteen Riders of the North couldn't help but laugh.

Nathan chuckled, "Yes, our North Army's trump card is naturally stronger than others.”

When Colin heard this, he was both proud and a little embarrassed.

Nathan then added, "Colin, I have already asked the President for your commendation. He haspromised to give you the first-class merit."

The first-class merit!

Colin immediately grew excited.

Even the Elite Eight and Eighteen Riders of the North beside him were full of envy.

In the military, a first class merit wasn't easy to obtain. In fact, it was rarely awarded to any soldier.

The common understanding was that if you knew you would not die, and you didn't, then you wouldget the third-class merit; if you knew you would die yet you were lucky and didn't, then you wouldget the second-class merit; if you knew that you would die and you did die or were disabled, thenyou would get the first-class merit.

Therefore, first-class and second-class merits risked one's life; both were equally glorious.

More second-class merits were given out, as those who were awarded the first-class merit hadeither sacrificed their lives or were disabled.

As Colin was going to receive a first-class merit, he couldn't help feeling excited and elated.
