clatter.

The porcelain pieces made a crisp sound when they clashed.

Xia Shizhao spoke calmly:

"Here, jasmine tea, unsweetened."

He placed the delicate teacup in front of Ye Qiuling, and the fragrance of the tea slowly wafted from the cup into the air.

"Thanks."

"Need not."

After speaking, Xia Shizhao walked over, opened the refrigerator, poured some syrup into his cup, and then leisurely sat down on the sofa, leaning back lazily, completely relaxed: "What's wrong? Was there anything unusual at today's meeting?"

"The leader informed everyone of the Zerg invasion and ordered increased training."

Xia Shizhao swirled the syrup with a spoon, paused for a moment, and then asked, "Isn't this a good thing?"

"That's true, but he had always disagreed before, and he didn't discuss it with me this time either, which is a bit strange."

After taking a small sip of tea, Ye Qiuling got up, went to the refrigerator, took out some syrup, and poured it into a cup.

Xia Shizhao sat in his seat, deep in thought.

Looking up at Ye Qiuling, who was stirring her drink with a spoon, he changed the subject: "Have you discovered a few labs recently?"

"We found three on some abandoned planets. Now we can confirm that they were communicating with each other and were hiding more thoroughly, making them harder to find."

When Ye Qiuling mentioned the abandoned planet, Xia Shizhao suddenly remembered the hairy people she had met on one of those abandoned planets.

At the time, I didn't suspect anything and simply thought it was hirsutism, but now it seems like a failed experiment.

After locating planets near Jupiter, Xia Shizhao successfully found the abandoned planet where she had been abandoned by Starfall. She zoomed in with two fingers, pointed, and asked, "Did you have someone check this abandoned planet?"

Ye Qiuling took a closer look: "This is one of the abandoned planets from which the laboratory was found."

"Have you found any live test subjects?"

Ye Qiuling shook her head decisively: "When I went to the lab, it was already deserted, and there were signs of burning."

"I've seen people who look like chimpanzees before; if not, they're probably dead by now."

After Xia Shizhao finished speaking, he shook his head with a hint of regret, and then asked, "Do you know what the principal's wife looks like?"

Ye Qiuling thought for a moment and said:

"Major General Wu has never talked about his wife in public, and he doesn't even bring her to banquets. It seems that his wife is rather reserved and her health has not been very good since giving birth, so she needs to rest. I heard from others that she is his first love and he cherishes her very much."

"Never seen in public, is he in poor health?"

Xia Shizhao picked out the most important point and asked, "Then do you know what your surname is?"

"hiss……"

Ye Qiuling rested her chin on her hand. "I don't think I've heard of that before. How come you noticed something?"

“Oh, I remember now. I didn’t tell you how those test subjects who came back alive got there. Most of them were students from Xingda University. They were all tricked into going there by the previous principal. Then I became suspicious of the principal and his team. I investigated at the school and found that more than a hundred people had died in accidents while he was in office.”

"Let me check, just a moment."

Xia Shizhao realized that he had just been held in her arms. The sofa next to him sank slightly as Ye Qiuling casually found the investigation system and sat down. Xia Shizhao glanced at the screen and found that the basket of the current principal's wife was unknown.

Ye Qiuling frowned slightly, then seemed to remember something and slowly closed the page: "I forgot, the leader's lineage's information system is not accessible, so it can't be found."

The message stopped again. Xia Shizhao shrugged and said sarcastically, "If they get involved too, that would be really interesting."

Picking up her teacup, Ye Qiuling looked down at the tea, which wasn't too hot, and said, "Then we alerted them just now with our investigation."

“Indeed,” Xia Shizhao said lazily, arms crossed, changing the subject: “But if the leader needs to intensify training, then your men won’t be able to run around everywhere?”

"The members of the Third Organization are not part of the military; they are currently wandering around as mercenaries."

"That's true."

Xia Shizhao tilted his head back and looked at the ceiling. "What if most people participate?"

“I think what you think,” Ye Qiuling replied calmly and decisively. “Serving the people is the original intention, but many people have already gone astray.”

"What I'm thinking is that if you tell anyone, you'll get arrested."

Xia Shizhao lay sprawled on the sofa, smiling at her from the side.

"Yeah, so you won't tell, right?"

Xia Shizhao sat up straight with a jolt, staring directly at Ye Qiuling. He crossed his two index fingers to make an X and moved closer to her: "No, I'm going to call the police to arrest you."

"Then go ahead and catch it."

Ye Qiuling had a faint smile on her lips, and spread her hands, looking like she had given up and was letting you do whatever you wanted.

"It's boring."

Xia Shizhao stood up. "Let's call it a day. Be careful."

She paused slightly as she reached the door, suddenly remembering the time she spent at the Venus competition. She turned to Ye Qiuling and asked, "Is the Hei family related to the leader?"

"No."

After Ye Qiuling finished answering, she asked again, "What? Did you find something wrong?"

Xia Shizhao sat down on the sofa again and pondered:

"Didn't many mechanics from various planets participate in the competition? Logically, there shouldn't be any explosions, but on that day, most of the better mechanics experienced explosions. Explosions aside, on that day, I caught a bug on Ge Shiyi. How could there be a bug in the competition room? There weren't any big trees around."

Furthermore, the insect was about half the length of a thumb, and its shell was very hard. I had to use my mental power to crush it to death.

Even more bizarrely, the hospital caught fire, and all the students injured in the explosion were burned to death.

Based on Xia Shizhao's guess, Ye Qiuling quickly found information about the Hei family by utilizing her connections with the third organization.

'Kurosuke, the eldest son of the Kuro family and current heir, has a younger sister, Kuroba, who is married but whose husband is unknown. She rarely appears in public; only a youthful-looking ID photo exists.'

After reading the simplest message, Xia Shizhao's gaze fell on the fact that he often did charity work on remote and underdeveloped planets, sponsoring many geniuses who were buried due to poor economic conditions.

In short, the Black family has a very good reputation in interstellar space.

Xia Shizhao also discovered that he had done charity work on Mulian Star, and recalled that Yu Luqin had once said that their small village had received sponsorship from kind-hearted people.

They quickly found the time; it happened to be when Yu Luqin was a child.

Suddenly, she panicked. "No, I have to go to Jupiter."

"Calm down. I'll go with you. Based on your own guess, you're not safe either."

"OK."

Seeing that Xia Shizhao agreed, Ye Qiuling immediately contacted her subordinates. After hanging up, she looked at Xia Shizhao reassuringly and said, "I've had my men take care of things. Drink the disguise potion when the airship leaves, and don't think too much about it until we arrive."
