Chapter 328: Clear Division of Labor

"By the way, you said that there was something unusual about the young man from City B. What exactly was unusual about him?" Qiao Yu continued to ask.

"Shame." Cheng Sinian answered seriously.

"Ah? Face?" Qiao Yu repeated doubtfully, "Do you mean the actual face, or..."

"Sister Qiao, it's substantial." This time it was Luo Zhenzhen who answered the question.

"Tell me more specifically."

Luo Zhenzhen swallowed the food in her mouth and continued excitedly, "A-Nian and I followed that man all afternoon today. There was nothing strange about him. The places he went to were also very ordinary. It seemed like he was just wandering around the base."

"But we both noticed something very strange: his face always had a smiling expression."

"And that expression...how can I describe it...it was so stiff. It looked like it was carved into his face."

Qiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "So, what you mean is..."

Cheng Sinian nodded and continued, "Yes, we suspect that he may have changed his appearance."

"And it's not just his face. His body proportions are actually a bit strange, but I can't confirm this yet. The most obvious thing is his face."

Cheng Sinian studied medicine and was very familiar with the human body structure.

Judging from the man's body proportions and muscle development, Cheng Sinian always felt that he looked weird and seemed a little out of proportion.

"So we suspect he came to City G for a reason, but he's probably hiding from someone."

"And that person should be very familiar with him."

Qiao Yu pursed her lips and said nothing more.

City B was a very sensitive place for her, and Qiao Yu absolutely did not want to mention it unless necessary.

Because whenever it was mentioned, she would think of that madman Han Ming, and then think of those not-so-wonderful memories of her previous life.

These memories have too much influence on Qiao Yu's judgment, making it impossible for Qiao Yu to make the most objective conclusion under the influence of this kind of thinking.

"You guys have to work hard these next two days and keep an eye on this man. The more you learn, the better."

"As for Ling Shu..." Qiao Yu suddenly smiled, "Leave it to me and A Zhan."

"After all... every profession has its own specialization."

After Ling Shu finished talking about the problem with the young man, Qiao Yu talked about the news he heard from Tang Minghui today.

"Crack down on the black market?" Cheng Sinian frowned slightly. "Isn't that a bit too much?"

"That's right..." Luo Zhenzhen nodded. "The situation of a dependent is already difficult. There's nothing wrong with wanting to live, right?"

Qiao Yu sighed, "The most critical issue now is the problem of human trafficking and alien attacks."

"Let's not talk about human trafficking for now, after all, it's all old news. But this alien tide is really strange."

"Why are there so many alien species coming here all of a sudden? The key is not to harm the dependents."

Cheng Sinian scratched his brow. "Why do I feel like... someone is deliberately trying to sow discord?"

"Hey!" Qiao Yu snapped his fingers. "Great minds think alike, indeed. What a coincidence! I thought so too."

"Unfortunately, I haven't figured it out yet. Who wants to do this? Why do they want to do this? What are the benefits?"

Qiao Yu's three consecutive questions made everyone at the table fall into deep thought.

At this moment, Jiang Zhan suddenly said, "Maybe it's to weaken the strength of the base."

Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and felt that it was quite possible.

There are now quite a few dependents, and with the rapid development of the slave market, many aliens from other places are now living in the black market.

In terms of comprehensive strength, the black market cannot compare with the base, but if a war really breaks out, they will go all out and fight to the death, and the base will probably not end well.

Qiao Yu had to admit that if their guess was true, then the person behind the scenes was quite scheming.

First, they used the alien tide to slowly deplete the troops, and then used the black market to cause large-scale conflicts between the dependents and the base. This would inevitably greatly weaken the overall strength of the base.

Cheng Sinian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Could it be that someone has set their sights on our base's territory?"

Qiao Yu shrugged, "That's hard for us to say."

"How about...find a way to check it out?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yu smiled slyly, "Then leave such a difficult task to our Detective Cheng!"

"..." When did he become a detective again? And, "Then we go to investigate this matter, what about that man?"

"How about... I go and keep an eye on him?" Hua Yue, who had been listening to their conversation silently, suddenly interrupted.

Qiao Yu thought about it and said, "Alright. Then let's assign Wang Zha and Thug to Yueyue! It just so happens that Yueyue can communicate with them, so it's more convenient."

Anyway, Yu Qingchuan is currently busy researching an antidote with Professor Kang and Professor Shen. He probably won't be back in the next two days, so it's good for Hua Yue to have something to do.

"In that case, Si Nian and Zhen Zhen should go check out the black market. It would be best if they could find out why those alien species didn't attack them."

"..." Cheng Sinian rolled his eyes at Qiao Yu in anger. Humph! All he knows is exploiting the hard-working workers! No, now it's not just about humans, she doesn't even let the working beasts go!

Qiao Yu didn't care about Cheng Sinian's resentment at all and continued, "Then it's settled. Ah Zhan and I will go to Gu Nanyu's place tomorrow morning. When we come back, we will prepare to pick up Chen Wanning and the others."

Cheng Sinian suddenly realized, "You want to send Chen Wanning and the others to Gu Nanyu?"

"Yeah." Qiao Yu nodded, "A Zhan suggested it, I think it's a good idea."

"But... isn't it good to hurt people like this?" Cheng Sinian suddenly had a mask of pain on his face.

When mentioning Gu Nanyu, Cheng Sinian instinctively felt a little scared.

This guy's physique is so strange, so strange that it's a little weird.

"How can it be considered harming others?" Qiao Yu was unconvinced. "Gu Nanyu's factory is short of manpower, and we can also give them some wheat seeds..."

"No, no, no!" Cheng Sinian quickly shook his head. "What I mean is, it's not good for you to harm Chen Wanning and the others like this, right?"

"..." Qiao Yu suddenly understood what Cheng Sinian meant, and her expression became a little complicated. "If it really doesn't work... should we isolate Gu Nanyu?"

"...Tsk, tsk, tsk." Cheng Sinian smacked his lips and shook his head repeatedly. "I can only say, I wish them good luck."

Qiao Yu curled his lips. There was nothing he could do. It was already difficult for them to survive. So, let them have some bad luck!
