Xia Chujian said, "We still have to go through the trial. Otherwise, we'll be completely confused when we return. It's too unsafe."
She had to know what these people were doing.
Why would they mobilize such a large force just for a broken army?
Or is Pojun just a cover, and their real target is her - Qisha?
Xia Chujian didn't think she was suspicious.
In the face of the clever and cunning top-level mechanical intelligence, Xia Chujian felt that he could never be too careful.
…
In the cave's fortifications, Zorenbot was tied up, rolled into a ball, and thrown into a pit at the innermost part of the cave.
When Xia Chujian came in, she thought the smell was very unpleasant.
She remained calm and said to the soldiers who followed her in, "Drag him out to the hall of the settlement outside."
A soldier hesitantly said, "Captain, the settlement has been bombed. The hall has no roof."
Xia Chujian said, "Then let's go to the open-air hall. It's better than here anyway."
It's dark here and the smell is indescribable.
Pojun also followed. He didn't say anything, but just stepped forward, picked up the rope that tied Zorenbot from the ground, and dragged him out.
Zorenbot's mouth was blocked and his face was flushed red. It was unclear whether he had a fever or was angry.
Xia Chujian didn't care and followed them out of the fortifications in the cave.
Come to the hall of the previous settlement.
Indeed, this place has been bombed into ruins.
The previous hall is now just a relatively flat open space.
Looking up, you can see the blue sky; looking down, you can't see any cattle or sheep.
Xia Chujian stood there and said to the soldiers, "Go back to the fortifications in the cave and continue to be on guard."
"I want to question you. The scene might be quite bloody. You might not be able to bear it."
After Xia Chujian said this, the soldiers all laughed.
Are they afraid of blood?
As a low-level soldier, the reason he has survived until now is his ability to react faster than others and his more bloody killing methods.
Otherwise, how should we live?
But they also understood that Xia Chujian said this because she didn't want others to hear her questions.
Several people saluted in response, turned around and trotted towards the fortifications on the other side of the cave.
Xia Chujian was indeed giving this reason.
She felt that there should be no traitors among the remaining more than 10,000 people.
But what if?
In this case, she couldn't rely on her gut feeling to make a decision.
So she was very cautious.
Pojun said nothing and left the settlement with the soldiers, returning to the nearby cave fortifications.
They were at least two miles away from here, and there was no doubt that he couldn't hear her talking, so Xia Chujian felt at ease to interrogate her.
She half squatted down, pulled the gag out of Zorenbot's mouth, threw it aside with disgust, then switched to a pistol and stuffed it directly into Zorenbot's mouth to block his mouth so that he wouldn't bite his tongue to commit suicide or something.
Of the three main officers who came this time, only Zorenbot was still alive. Xia Chujian still "cherished" this prisoner.
"Tell me, what is your real purpose for coming here?"
"As long as you tell the truth, I can let you live."
Xia Chujian said seriously.
Zorenbot made a whimpering sound and looked down helplessly at the gun barrel that she had blocked in his mouth.
His meaning was very clear: how can I speak if you block my mouth?
Xia Chujian understood, nodded, and said, "I can take the gun away, but you have to remember, if you try to commit suicide right away, you can try to see which is faster, your words or my gun."
"I will make you wish you could neither live nor die."
Her tone was calm, as if she was stating an obvious fact.
When Zorenbot heard this, he shuddered and his whole body was shaking.
He nodded repeatedly, his pupils dilated with fear.
Xia Chujian slowly pulled the gun barrel out of his mouth, but still held it against his forehead and said, "You can speak now."
"I still say the same thing. If you want to die, don't bother committing suicide. I will grant you your wish right away."
"I have plenty of bullets. Ten minutes is enough to shoot you."
As he spoke, Xia Chujian pulled out the virtual display screen of the quantum optical computer with his other hand and showed Zuo Lunbot the photo of Wen Renlang's death.
Zorenbot's pupils suddenly contracted, he gasped for breath, and the last bit of hope disappeared.
Wen Renlang is a lieutenant general, and he dared to kill this killer, so what chance does he, a major general, have?!
Those bloody pictures completely destroyed his spirit.
Zorenbot said tremblingly, "I...we want the Great Tibetan Star..."
Xia Chujian thought to herself, I guessed it long ago. Saying that Pojun was the murderer who assassinated the third prince was just a cover!
She said coldly: "Why do you want the Great Tibetan Star? The Great Tibetan Star belongs to the Beichen Empire. What gives you the right to get your hands on it?!"
Zuo Lunbot said hurriedly: "Actually, it's not us, it's Wenren Lang! He has his eyes on Da Zangxing!"
Xia Chujian said coldly, "If he's interested in Dazangxing, he could just be the vanguard himself! Why doesn't he volunteer? Instead, he comes to steal other people's things!"
Zorenbot said awkwardly, "...the danger of traveling through the wormhole is too great, he doesn't dare..."
Xia Chujian sneered: "So you let us be the vanguard to die. When we succeed, you will come to pick the peaches, right?"
"They are all so ugly, but their dreams are so beautiful!"
As Xia Chujian said this, he hit Zorenbot with the butt of his gun, making him grimace in disbelief. It took him a long time to come back to his senses.
