Chapter 2234 - 2227: Yuno Mina’s Request
Fortunately, Yuno Mina did not commit suicide.
"Thank you for testifying for us," Wang Dadong finally uttered after a long silence.
Actually, a big reason why Yuno Mina was abandoned by Dongyin Country is because she came forward to testify, so Wang Dadong felt somewhat guilty about it.
Back then, he merely intended to extort some money from the Dongyin devils, but even if Dongyin Country didn’t ransom these prisoners, he would eventually release them. Unexpectedly, the prisoners committed suicide.
"If you truly wish to thank me, please give me a sword so I can complete the seppuku ritual," Yuno Mina said calmly.
The reason she hadn’t committed suicide was that she was waiting for this opportunity.
As a Samurai of the Empire of Great Dongyin, only seppuku can atone for one’s sins.
Wang Dadong was stunned, wanting to persuade Yuno Mina, but he didn’t know what to say.
"Dadao, fulfill her wish. After all, she betrayed her homeland, and only death can atone for it... being able to commit seppuku is their greatest honor," Qiao Feifei said quietly.
Initially, she hated Yuno Mina, but once Yuno Mina came forward to testify, she forgave her.
At least it showed that Yuno Mina still preserved her last conscience.
After a long time, Wang Dadong sighed, "Feifei, go prepare..."
Although Yuno Mina’s betrayal made Wang Dadong very angry, she was a woman he had been involved with, and she later came forward to testify. He couldn’t bear to watch her perform seppuku before his eyes.
Qiao Feifei nodded. The Dongyin people loved swords, so there were many Dongyin Samurai Swords on the Dongyin submarines. At the time of searching the nuclear submarines, many warriors took the Samurai Swords on the submarines as war trophies.
Very soon, Qiao Feifei entered the room holding a Dongyin Samurai Sword.
Upon seeing the Samurai Sword in Qiao Feifei’s hand, Yuno Mina suddenly froze.
She caressed the sword’s blade as if treating her lover.
This was a Samurai Sword with a red hilt, the sheath was also rose-red, delicately and beautifully crafted. Just by its appearance, it was evident that it was a woman’s sword.
It was the best sword that Qiao Feifei found, and coincidentally, this sword was Yuno Mina’s paired sword.
"Being able to die under my own sword wouldn’t be regrettable."
Clang!
Yuno Mina drew out the Samurai Sword, and it immediately gleamed coldly.
Yuno Mina held the sword hilt backwards in both hands and raised it high, then suddenly stabbed it into her abdomen.
The slender blade pierced through her back.
"Damn, these Dongyin devils are really perverted, committing seppuku at the drop of a hat. Don’t they know that if the green hills are preserved, there’s no fear of having no firewood? If one makes a mistake, they should correct it, make amends, not resort to some nonsense seppuku to appease the Emperor," Wang Wei, standing by the monitor, said with a sneer.
He looked down on the actions of the Dongyin people.
Seppuku, though seemingly brave, is actually a manifestation of cowardice and an inability to take responsibility.
Watching helplessly as the woman he had been involved with performed seppuku before his eyes, Wang Dadong felt quite uncomfortable.
The next day, Wang Dadong didn’t stay for more celebrations; a special plane from the Imperial Capital had already arrived at Haisha Island.
This time, Wang Dadong successfully completed the mission and received high praise from the leaders, who wished to meet him personally.
Soon, the plane took off, disappearing into the vast blue sky.
...
Suddenly, lying on the hospital bed, Yuno Mina opened her eyes, "I, I’m not dead?"
A nurse in white said with a smile, "No, you have already died..."
"I... am dead?" Yuno Mina looked at the nurse in confusion.
The nurse smiled and said, "Yuno Mina has died, you are not Yuno Mina anymore, you are Wang Mei."
"What, what is going on?" Yuno Mina looked at her flat, unharmed abdomen, somewhat bewildered.
She remembered clearly having performed the seppuku ritual.
"It was Dadao who saved you, this is your Huaxia ID card. From now on, you are a member of Huaxia Country," Qiao Feifei suddenly walked in.
Indeed, Wang Dadong eventually took action to save Yuno Mina.
No matter what, Yuno Mina had been involved with him, and she also testified. Therefore, he procured a Huaxia identity for her.
"Of course, you can also choose not to accept it and continue living as a Dongyin person. We Huaxia People still welcome you," Qiao Feifei said.
Yuno Mina was silent for a long time, finally tremulously accepting the ID card from Qiao Feifei’s hand.
Since Dongyin Country had already abandoned her, why should she continue being a Dongyin person...
"I am Huaxia People... My name is Wang Mei..."
However, in the Dongyin Country’s Imperial Palace, there was a constant sound of things being shattered.
Clearly, Wang Dadong’s actions had already enraged the Emperor.
Imperial Capital, in a conference room.
"Comrade Wang Dadong, welcome back successfully, you are a hero of the homeland, a hero of the people!" A vigorous old man was the first to speak, clapping enthusiastically.
"Comrade Wang Dadong, would you be willing to become the nation’s soldier again? If you agree to return to the Divine Shield, you will immediately become the leader of the Divine Shield." The speaker was the true supreme leader of the Divine Shield.
Wang Dadong smiled without speaking.
"Old Gao, I see little Wang Dadong isn’t interested in your Divine Shield at all, so don’t force him," another elderly man said with a smile, then looked at Wang Dadong, "Wang Dadong, are you interested in joining my Sky Defense Department? I still need a deputy minister here."
Two senior military figures wanted to rope Wang Dadong into their teams. Especially the latter, who offered the position of deputy minister of the Sky Defense Department.
The power of the deputy minister of the Sky Defense Department was vast, almost comparable to the governor of a province.
Besides, several other influential people wanted to recruit Wang Dadong.
Wang Dadong’s actions this time had won the favor of many leaders.
One must know that in front of these truly powerful leaders, even Divine Shield members rarely earned their attention.
"Everyone, actually whether I join the Divine Shield or the Sky Defense Department, it makes no difference. Every time the country has faced issues, haven’t I always risked life and limb in pursuit of justice?" Wang Dadong said to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"Since that’s the case, we won’t force you. How about this, Wang Dadong, name a wish, and we’ll fulfill it for you, as a reward."
"Well, I do have a request." Wang Dadong knew that he should strike while the iron is hot. This time he had brought such honor to the country, it was time to ask for something.
"Tell us."
