The truth was indeed sigh-inducing. As for whether any conspiracies were hidden behind the truth of that year, Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping had not yet spoken of it.
Only after Ding Yijie returned to the Special Operations Group would they explain in detail.
They did not intend to bring up these details for now.
After all, no matter what was said outside, even with Xiao Miaomiao providing backup, they dared not say it was one hundred percent safe.
Therefore, it would be more reassuring to be in a more secure place.
After finishing their conversation with Ding Yijie, Nie Chongyang and the others made arrangements to take Ding Yijie to the Special Operations Group after dinner.
Regarding this matter, Ding Yijie had previously agreed to cooperate with Nie Chongyang and their work.
Ding Yijie did not go back on his word.
However, having learned too much, the sheer volume of information made his head spin, and the truth was difficult for Ding Yijie to accept. Consequently, Ding Yijie could be said to have eaten without tasting during the meal.
Soon, they finished their meal. Ding Yijie, cooperating with the secrecy measures, told his family that he had some matters to consult and needed to go to the headquarters of the Special Operations Group. Therefore, he decided to take this opportunity to visit the headquarters of the Special Operations Group.
However, because the headquarters of the Special Operations Group was not located locally, he had to leave with Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping.
He would return home later after handling the matters.
Such an excuse was actually a bit flimsy, as Ding Yijie could only speak vaguely when asked about what matters he needed to handle.
Yet, even with Ding Yijie's vague explanation, he still managed to get past his family.
Liang Ping felt a bit suspicious and kept his phone accessible.
Liang Ping had a feeling.
After this trip, perhaps the Ding family, Ding Yijie's family members, might choose to contact him privately.
Liang Ping already had a vague premonition.
Indeed, as Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping, along with Xiao Miaomiao, got into the car with Ding Yijie and were on their way back to the headquarters of the Special Operations Group, Liang Ping suddenly received a message from the Ding family privately.
Originally, the Ding family had called directly.
But because they were already in the car, and Ding Yijie himself was in the car, it was inconvenient to talk on the phone. More importantly, Liang Ping felt that the content of the conversation might not be appropriate for Ding Yijie to hear.
Therefore, Liang Ping directly hung up the phone.
Furthermore, Liang Ping quickly replied with a message, stating that it was inconvenient to talk on the phone and asked the Ding family to send him a message if they had anything to say.
The Ding family indeed agreed with Liang Ping's suggestion.
Soon, Liang Ping received another text message from the Ding family.
As soon as Liang Ping saw the text message from the Ding family, he knew that his suspicions were correct.
The Ding family expressed that they knew Liang Ping was now working in the Special Operations Group, and not in an ordinary capacity. They had been harboring doubts about this matter, and Liang Ping, along with his captain, had suddenly visited at this time.
Therefore, it was difficult for the Ding family not to make any associations.
They had never been able to let go of this matter, and when they encountered this opportunity, they immediately inquired with Liang Ping.
The Ding family stated that although Ding Yijie was currently safe by their side, they, as family members, kept having dreams where Ding Yijie had actually died, just like his friends.
Then, upon waking, they would still see Ding Yijie.
A living Ding Yijie.
Of course, it was not that the Ding family did not wish for their loved ones to live well in this world, but some things were simply too bizarre.
They were confused by the memories from their dreams and the memories from reality.
The Ding family could not help but care about Ding Yijie's situation, and even more so, they wanted to know if the current Ding Yijie was truly their relative, and if the real Ding Yijie was still alive.
And whether Liang Ping and their visit was indeed because of Ding Yijie.
After all, it was such a coincidence that Ding Yijie left with Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping, and it was impossible to say there was no trickery involved.
With Ding Yijie's vague explanation, anyone else would not have believed it.
In fact, no one would easily believe it.
However, the Ding family chose to selectively believe, which clearly indicated a problem.
The reason for the Ding family's similar suspicions was also because the current world had indeed become much more dangerous. Most ordinary people were already aware of many things they had never known or believed before.
Therefore, it was not difficult to guess that Ding Yijie's identity might be unusual.
After reading the message from the Ding family, Liang Ping thought for a moment before replying to the Ding family, telling them that he and Nie Chongyang had indeed chosen to visit suddenly because of Ding Yijie.
Although they were relatives, the relationship was indeed a bit distant, so Liang Ping's sudden visit with two strangers was indeed very strange.
After all, it was not a holiday.
Secondly, the Ding family already had their suspicions, and at this point, there was no significant meaning in concealing it from them.
Moreover, some matters would eventually have to be disclosed to the Ding family after investigation, so letting the Ding family have some psychological preparation in advance was also a good thing.
Liang Ping thought so.
Liang Ping also believed that Nie Chongyang and the others would hold the same view after learning about this matter.
Then, Liang Ping also reassured the Ding family, telling them not to think too much for now. Ding Yijie's current situation was indeed very special, but whether the current Ding Yijie was the real Ding Yijie still needed to be tested.
They needed to conduct an examination before they could draw a conclusion.
Therefore, they could not conclude yet whether Ding Yijie had any problems.
Thus, Liang Ping asked the Ding family to be patient and not to overthink and disturb their minds for the time being.
Furthermore, Liang Ping also assured them that if any useful results were found in the future investigation, they would inform the Ding family and would not choose to conceal it without authorization.
After reading Liang Ping's reply, although the Ding family was naturally still anxious, they had no better method and could only choose to wait for the results.
It was evident that further questioning would likely yield no good results.
Originally, the Ding family had also tried to inquire and wanted to know Ding Yijie's situation and if he could reveal a little more to them.
However, Liang Ping considered that if Ding Yijie were to return and interact with the Ding family in the future, knowing those matters might lead to some problems in their family interactions. Therefore, it would be better for the Ding family not to know for now.
If Ding Yijie truly had a problem and was destined not to return or interact with the Ding family, then these matters would indeed need to be disclosed.
Liang Ping also clearly explained this to the Ding family.
He also explained the reason why he chose not to disclose it for the time being.
Moreover, Liang Ping also stated that regardless of whether the current Ding Yijie was real or fake, he should treat the Ding family genuinely and interact with them as family.
Beyond this, Liang Ping was unwilling to say any more.
Some things were inherently difficult to disclose too widely.
