Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 992 Legitimate Reason

Wen Xiuyuan fell silent.

He had completely figured out what Ning Fan was going to do.

Originally, Ning Fan would definitely support Lin Song.

But in the final analysis, neither Lin Song nor Pei Hongshen had a very deep friendship with Ning Fan.

Ning Fan only needs to consider which side to support from the perspective of interests.

Therefore, when Pei Hongshen can bring greater benefits to Ning Fan, there is no need for Ning Fan to help Lin Song unconditionally.

It was just like if Lin Song hadn't been desperate, he wouldn't have asked Ning Fan for help.

We are all just bound together by interests.

While Ning Fan was talking to Ma Yuxiang, he had already made up his mind to get rid of Ma Yuxiang.

However, due to Guan Shanyue's personality, Ning Fan did not express this attitude too obviously. Instead, he deliberately hinted to Guan Shanyue that "Lin Song is one of us."

In fact, even Wen Xiuyuan still thinks that Ning Fan came to District B just to help Lin Song eliminate dissidents, so Guan Shanyue must think so too.

Therefore, Lin Song’s identity as one of us has been confirmed.

After arriving at the headquarters, Pei Hongshen "sacrificed" his granddaughter, which really made Lian Teng unable to accept.

But from Guan Shanyue's perspective, this was the reason why Ning Fan didn't kill Pei Hongshen directly!

Guan Shanyue naturally wouldn't ask about Ning Fan's private life.

Therefore, the reason why Pei Hongshen was able to survive became very reasonable.

Then Ning Fan could follow Pei Hongshen's wishes and seem to have kept him for some special reason.

But this does not mean that Ning Fan will turn around and support Pei Hongshen.

Lin Song is still one of us.

Now Ning Fan is just waiting.

When Ma Yuxiang and Lin Song really had a conflict.

If Ma Yuxiang kills Lin Song, even if Guan Shanyue still doesn't want to touch Ma Yuxiang, at least he won't stop him.

Because, in his opinion, Ma Yuxiang's actions have infringed on the interests of Yecheng.

"But what if the fight doesn't break out over there?"

Wen Xiuyuan still had another doubt: "As I just said, Lin Song's team has lost their morale. Even if they know that it was Ma Yuxiang who tricked them, they may not have the intention of revenge, right?"

For Lin Song, no grudges or hatreds are important.

What he wanted most was probably to return to the headquarters safely.

"Lin Song definitely doesn't want to fight."

Ning Fan narrowed his eyes gradually: "But Ma Yuxiang may not be the same."

Wen Xiuyuan was stunned.

Ning Fan said in a deep voice, "He will definitely make the first move!"

"Why?"

Wen Xiuyuan was puzzled.

Ning Fan said slowly, "Because he didn't come to the headquarters."

Wen Xiuyuan suddenly understood.

In fact, the person Ma Yuxiang really relies on now is Guan Shanyue.

Since Guan Shanyue was there, Ning Fan couldn't touch him.

Now that it is confirmed that Guan Shanyue is in Ning Fan's team, why doesn't he go to the headquarters to join them?

Unless, he has other things to do.

At this time, Ma Yuxiang's location is most likely the junction of Area C and Area B.

Lin Song's team was in its weakest state after suffering the attack of the strange beast.

From this, it can be inferred that Ma Yuxiang really wanted to take action against Lin Song.

But……

Why?

Why is Ma Yuxiang so determined to kill Lin Song?

Wen Xiuyuan raised this question.

But what he didn't expect was...

"Dad, I'm only basing my inferences on what Ma Yuxiang might do based on the information I have currently obtained and my superficial understanding of him, but what exactly is his purpose..."

Ning Fan rubbed his temples: "To be honest, I'm still not sure."

There is still too little information.

Even though Ning Fan has a strong ability to summarize information, it is still difficult to judge a person's thoughts based on guesswork when the known information is insufficient.

But what is certain is that Ma Yuxiang is definitely not a well-behaved person.

What Ning Fan wanted was for him to make mistakes.

As long as Ma Yuxiang reveals his ambition himself, Ning Fan is confident that he can persuade Guan Shanyue not to interfere and help him get rid of Ma Yuxiang!

"Um."

After the two of them talked about this, Wen Xiuyuan probably understood Ning Fan's thoughts.

What reassured him most was that Ning Fan really didn't have any ulterior motives.

"Then be careful and get some rest early!"

Wen Xiuyuan's voice softened a lot: "Xiao Cai is about to give birth. After finishing things over there, come back to accompany her. When the child is born, the father must be by her side."

"I know, Dad, don't worry."

Ning Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.

After hanging up the phone, Ning Fan leaned against the head of the bed.

He didn't consider Lian Teng's complaint.

After explaining his thoughts to Wen Xiuyuan, he also began to think again about Ma Yuxiang's attitude.

As it stands now, everything Ma Yuxiang does is more or less a bit weird.

Ma Yuxiang would definitely not treat Ning Fan as a fool.

In this case, he would definitely know that Ning Fan knew what he was planning.

Ning Fan couldn't possibly take him back to Yecheng.

As long as he doesn't return to Yecheng, Ma Yuxiang will not be able to organize a force to resist Ning Fan.

These are facts before our eyes.

Ning Fan put himself in their shoes and thought, if it were him, what would be the ultimate effect he wanted to achieve by doing this?

Unexpected.

Even Ning Fan couldn't think of any way to reverse Yecheng with such limited resources.
