Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1493

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 we can only barely find out that he was in contact with Boris Tucker. However, there's no strong evidence 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 Boris Tucker? 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. Spend more time with your family while you're still on holiday. When it's over, you will have to go to the frontier to guard the Northern border again.”

"Yes, Sir!"

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

Nathan hurriedly interjected, "I didn't contribute much. The Captain of National Guards, Colin Dunne, almost lost his life getting the ledgers as evidence. His contribution is significant. I request that 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 to Hailey.

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 his hearing had also returned.

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