In the evening, they arrived in front of the building of the Nanjing Military Commission.

Lu Ming opened his eyes, looked outside, then pushed Liu Qiwen who was still sleeping soundly: "Hey, wake up, it's time to stop."

"Don't make trouble, I'm sleepy." Liu Qiwen said half asleep and half awake.

"It's really the stop, wake up." Lu Ming also admired her for sleeping so soundly.

He pretended to be asleep along the way, but his heart was full of ups and downs, analyzing all kinds of situations that might happen when he entered the Military Law Department, and how he should deal with it.

As a soldier, Liu Qiwen should also understand the consequences of being taken away by the gendarmerie. Ordinary people would have their legs weak from fright, but she didn't care at all.

Lu Ming got out of the car and stretched his legs and feet. The bus was rushed, and he only went to the toilet once on the way, and never stopped again.

At this moment, a person approached from the opposite side, also wearing the uniform of a major general, but without the armband of a military police.

"It's Lu Ming, right? I'm Gao Jialiang, Director of the Military Jurisdiction Division." As he spoke, he gave a military salute.

Lu Ming also returned a military salute, and then said, "I am Lu Ming."

"This is Second Lieutenant Liu Qiwen, Secretary Liu, right?" Gao Jialiang looked at Liu Qiwen who had just got off the car and asked.

"Report to the general, my name is Liu Qiwen." Seeing a general standing in front of her, Liu Qiwen quickly saluted.

Gao Jialiang waved back, and a high-end car drove over.

"Both of you, please get into my car," he said.

"Where are we going?" Lu Ming asked.

"You'll know when you get there." Gao Jialiang smiled.

Lu Ming didn't ask any more questions, and got into the car with Liu Qiwen, and their suitcases and bags were also transferred to the trunk of this car.

Gao Jialiang asked the driver to drive, and the driver seemed to know where he was going without asking a word.

After a while, they arrived at the place, and Lu Ming looked out the window, but it was the Jinling Hotel.

"Please come with me." Gao Jialiang said and got out of the car first.

Lu Ming and Liu Qiwen had no choice but to get out of the car and followed him into the hotel. The two military police behind him carried Lu Ming's suitcase and Liu Qiwen's bag.

A group of people entered the hotel, and then took the elevator to a luxury suite on the top floor.

"The two of you can rest here first. If you need anything, you can tell the military police outside. You can't make calls, and you can't leave this room." Gao Jialiang said.

"Are we under house arrest?" Lu Ming asked.

"It's okay if you think so, but it seems that you are not surprised?" Gao Jialiang laughed.

"What's the use of being surprised? Why don't you express your protest?" Lu Ming laughed.

"What are you protesting against?" Gao Jialiang asked.

"I protest that you put me under house arrest for no reason, and my secretary, Ms. Liu." Lu Ming said playfully.

"It's impossible without a reason. Since I invited you and Secretary Liu to come here, it means that there is a good reason to do so." Gao Jialiang's attitude was still very gentle.

"What's the reason? I hope you can tell me, this is also our right." Lu Ming looked at Liu Qiwen and said.

"You will find out in the afternoon. Someone will bring you food later. Enjoy it." Gao Jialiang said with a smile.

"From your tone, it seems that this is our last supper, is that so?" Lu Ming said bluntly.

"That's because you misunderstood. It's not the last supper, but just the first of many meals." Gao Jialiang looked at this calm young man playfully.

"It sounds like I'll be here for a long time, can I make some requests?" Lu Ming said.

"Yes, you can ask for anything you need, and I will try my best to satisfy you." Gao Jialiang said.

"I'm not very particular about food, but I must be provided with a bottle of single malt Scotch whiskey every day. It must be pure. You can buy it at the British Liquor Store at No. 87 Huaihai Road, Nanjing. Of course, I pay for the wine myself." Lu Ming Said.

"No need, the Nanjing Military Commission can afford the money, so let's treat it as a treat for the Military Judiciary." Gao Jialiang softened his attitude a little.

"Secretary Liu, what do you want?" Lu Ming turned to ask Liu Qiwen.

"I didn't bring a change of clothes, I have to go out and buy a change of clothes." Liu Qiwen said.

Lu Ming laughed, Liu Qiwen must have done it on purpose, he knew to bring a change of clothes, how could the careful Liu Qiwen forget it?

"Tell me the size of your clothes, and I will send someone to buy them for you." Gao Jialiang said with a gloomy face.

"Liu Cuicui, the secretary of Chief He of the Fuxing Society, knows the size of my clothes, and she also knows the style of clothes I like. You can ask her, and it is best to let her take you to buy." Liu Qiwen said.

Gao Jialiang's angry face was filled with black air.

What do these two people want to do? What kind of place do they think the Tangtang Military Law Office is?

Is it a hotel, restaurant and tailor shop?

Gao Jialiang was angry but he could only endure it. The chairman had already said that although Lu Ming would be placed under house arrest when he was brought to Nanjing, he should try his best to take care of him in life. need.

Gao Jialiang left angrily.

After half an hour, two gendarmes moved into a table, and then a few restaurant guys came in with dishes. The dishes were very rich, all of which were Nanjing-style, and the single malt Scotch whiskey that Lu Ming wanted was also bought. up.

The two ate and drank, not worried about the environment they were in at all, who cares, should eat and drink.

"Why do you think the salted duck in Nanjing is so delicious? The one in Shanghai is not good." Liu Qiwen said while gnawing on a duck paw.

"It's not from Shanghai. The salted duck here in Nanjing is only the best at Jinling Hotel, and other places are not so good." Lu Ming explained.

"Why is that? They are all the same duck. Besides, the salted duck is the easiest to cook. It is purely boiled in salt water." Liu Qiwen was puzzled.

"The simpler the dish, the more it can test the level of a chef. Among all the cuisines, the most test of the chef's level is Qingshui cabbage. There is a chef who cooks Qingshui cabbage. Even Emperor Qianlong likes it very much." Lu Ming laughed.

"Clear water cabbage? It sounds tasteless, but it's also delicious?" Liu Qiwen pouted.

"You're wrong, it's said to be a delicacy at the level of gods, but of course I haven't eaten it." Lu Ming said hehe.

"That may be a story made up by the people." Liu Qiwen smirked.

"Uh, you came to Nanjing with me and entered the Military Law Department, why aren't you afraid at all?" Lu Ming asked, changing the subject.

"There is nothing to be afraid of. The worst is to be shot. I am willing to die with the officer." Liu Qiwen said carelessly.

"Death is impossible. We can't go to heaven. It's not time to go to hell. Let's hang out in the world first." Lu Ming said with a smile.

Lu Ming reckoned that for this trip to Nanjing, he would get half of the reward and half of the punishment.

The reason for awarding him is that what he took away was the arsenal of the Japanese, which also counted as serving the country.

The reason for punishing him was that he was disorganized and acted without authorization. Things like arms should be controlled by the state, so how could they be left to private individuals?

If this batch of weapons and ammunition was intercepted and handed over to Nanjing for disposal, how could the Communist Party take advantage of the loophole and take advantage of it?

All in all, as a party-state soldier, Lu Ming was disorganized and disciplined, too courageous and ill-considered, which turned a good thing into a bad thing.

If the basic conclusion is like this, there is still a lot of room for those who want to speak up for Lu Ming, at least they can win no reward or punishment.

Lu Ming didn't report to the government in advance, and didn't send weapons and ammunition to Nanjing afterwards. It was for the government's consideration, and he was worried that the Japanese would pester the government of the Republic of China endlessly.

Lu Ming recruited the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea to jointly hijack the Japanese arsenal. Subjectively, it was a patriotic act, but he mishandled it afterwards.

At most, he should be put in confinement for a few days, so that he can reflect on his behavior.

Liu Qiwen was amused by him: "Sir, you have such a good character, why do you say you can't go to heaven after you die?"

"Because I don't believe in Christianity, God definitely doesn't want me as a heathen." Lu Ming said.

Liu Qiwen was amused by him and giggled.

The gendarmes outside were also convinced when they heard this. How much experience these two people had, they were both under house arrest. Not only could they eat and drink, but they even laughed so happily.

After the meal, the gendarmes came in and took away the table, plates and saucers, and brought in two clean cups, a box of high-quality Longjing tea leaves, and a pot of boiling water.

Liu Qiwen opened the tea box, smelled it, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, they didn't fool us with inferior tea."

Although the cup was clean, she scalded it with boiling water before making two cups of tea.

She took a sip and said with a wry smile: "The tea is not bad, but it's not as good as the black tea I drank in the black tea house that day."
