The two discussed in the tea room for a while before going out. Lan Yu called a handyman on the left and whispered a few words to him. The handyman nodded repeatedly and then left the conference room under the gaze of everyone.

After he left, Lan Yu held the injection in front of her and showed it to everyone.

"It's called... KH5," he said.

"KH5 is an injection developed by the military specifically for the Lonte people. No matter which host body they are hiding in, as long as they are injected with one shot, they will die soon. Of course, if you inject the wrong one, you will not survive."

His gaze swept across everyone's face, like an ice-hardened blade. Even if his gaze did not fall on themselves, the people present could feel the sharp chill.

"I can't guarantee that I will stab the Longte star, I can only guarantee that if I stab the wrong person, I will say sorry to the corpse." He paused and said slowly: "I believe some people have heard of me, so you'd better not arouse my interest."

Everyone present held their breath.

K is a madman. He is not afraid of military sanctions. No one dares to gamble his life on him.

Lan Yu put one hand into the baggy pocket of his prison uniform, dangling the needle to his ear with the other hand, and walked through the small door to the eight people.

Four of the eight people were wearing starship soldier uniforms, standing there obediently, allowing Lan Yu, who was wearing prisoner clothes, to look them up and down. This scene should have been hilarious no matter how you looked at it, but no one dared to react.

"You eight, take turns going to that little room later. I will examine you carefully and find the Lonte among you."

Lan Yu stared at them steadily and uttered a few words slowly: "Inject him with HR5, and then... kill him."

His voice was not loud, but everyone in the room heard it clearly. The air seemed to freeze briefly because of these words.

No one noticed that he was KH5 one moment and HR5 the next, they just felt fear.

Full of fear.

Lu Rankong walked over and held up an injection to show everyone. He introduced it like a competent commentator, "Don't worry, Colonel K and I each have an injection. After we identify the Lonte alien, whether he wants to escape from the original host or try to get into my and K's spiritual realm, it won't work."

Someone bravely asked: "But are you sure that Trond... Trond..."

"Lonte people..." someone next to him corrected in a low voice.

"Yes, the Lunt alien. Are you sure that the Lunt alien is among us? And, if he is, do you have a way to identify him? Colonel K will not do anything rash? I don't trust him anyway. Although I have never seen him before, I have heard of him." The man became bolder as he spoke, and the people around him nodded in agreement.

Lu Rankong nodded and said, "Your concerns are reasonable, but don't worry, K is just talking casually. He is actually the most cautious, careful, and tolerant person."

Seeing that the captain did not say anything to stop him, the man continued to speak angrily. Lu Rankong turned his head and nodded to Lan Yu, "K, show him some kindness."

Lan Yu lowered her head slightly, slowly raised the corners of her mouth towards the man, and smiled, revealing a small row of white teeth.

The man fell silent for a moment.

The tightly closed door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and the person who had gone out after Lan Yu whispered an order came back, holding a black object in his hand.

Lan Yu walked over, picked up one end and shook her arm.

A long leather whip hung on the ground. The whip was pitch black and was obviously made of special military materials. It was solid and flexible.

There was a crisp sound of the whip, and the tip of the whip made a whip flower in the air, then it was whipped to the ground, and a white mark suddenly appeared on the hard metal floor.

"It's quite suitable..." Lan Yu curled the corners of her lips.

Lu Rankong continued, "The Longte man was injured before he boarded the ship. He was shot in the left leg. Although he found a new body and there were no scars on the surface, he was actually enduring the pain. If the left leg was whipped with a whip, as long as the force was appropriate, the pain for a normal person would be less than level 4, which is within the tolerable range, and it would not leave scars. But if it was the Longte man, when the whip hit the bullet hole on his calf, 0.15 seconds later, his pain would reach level 10 at that moment."

Lu Rankong paused and said slowly: "This pain was rapid and intense, with no room for relief. He couldn't control his expression and his body's natural reaction."

Everyone present was looking at the whip in Lan Yu's hand. The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop; not a sound could be heard.

Lan Yu didn't say anything, turned around and went into the tea room. Lu Rankong said to the medical officer at the front of the eight people: "Please..."

The medical officer followed Lu Rankong into the tea room tremblingly, and the door was slammed shut.

Lan Yu was leaning against a wardrobe, and Lu Rankong was standing at the door. Neither of them spoke, they just looked at him.

"K, Colonel K, be gentle, be gentle." The medical officer tugged at his tie and pushed his glasses down on his nose. His face was as pale as paper.

"I will not hit you lightly or heavily. Whether it hurts or not does not depend on me, but on whether you are the Longte alien with an injured leg." Lan Yu said expressionlessly and raised the whip in his hand.

"Ah!" The medical officer let out a scream, closed his eyes and began to retract his left foot and then his right foot, standing in place one after another, using his hands to block the attack.

"Ah, be gentle, ah, it hurts, it hurts..."

The medical officer screamed incoherently, but the expected pain did not come. After screaming a few more times, he realized something was wrong and opened his eyes while holding his legs.

Lan Yu had already retracted the whip, but still remained leaning against the cabinet. Lu Rankong was frowning and covering his ears with one hand.

The medical officer slowly stood up and asked blankly: "Still, aren't you going to fight yet?"

Rather than being tortured like this, it’s better to get beaten up quickly and get out.

"Is the door of this room soundproof?" Lu Rankong suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

The medical officer was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Soundproof. Every door on our starship is soundproof."

"Can't you hear any sound outside?"

"No sound at all."

Lu Rankong nodded, stepped aside to open the door, and said, "Okay, then you can go out."

The medical officer opened his mouth slightly, and after a few seconds asked, "Aren't you going to hit my legs?"

"No need to fight..."

"No need to inject? Are you going to give me an injection?" The medical officer became nervous, his voice began to tremble, "I am not from the Lonte star. If you hit me, hit me quickly, I will never make a sound again. Quick, hit my legs--"

"Calm down, calm down." Lu Rankong took two steps forward and held his shoulders, saying slowly but clearly: "We won't give you acupuncture or hit you, you can go out now. We have temporarily ruled out that you are from the Lonte star."

The medical officer reacted for a few seconds and then let out a long breath.

"Didn't you say you were going to beat me up? Why do you know I'm not capable of that without even hitting me?" He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The coffee pot next to him made the sound of boiling. Lu Rankong did not answer him. He walked to the table, picked up the coffee pot and filled the two cups. He first handed a cup to Lan Yu, then took a sip himself, and said unsatisfactorily: "This coffee is too bad. Is this what everyone on the ship drinks?"

Lan Yu thought about the plain water that this person drank in prison, and now he was being picky, so she couldn't help but said lightly: "It's fine as long as there is something to drink."

The medical officer was still waiting for Lu Rankong to answer his question. When he saw them suddenly talking about coffee, he thought for a while before continuing, "This is the kind of coffee we drink."

"Would you like a drink? You can have it before you go out."

The medical officer shook his head and said, "No, thank you."

Lu Rankong put down the coffee cup, crossed his arms and said, "Maybe it's because you're jumping around with both feet together."

"Ah?" The medical officer asked blankly, unable to react to the intermittent conversation.

"If you can't figure it out, go back and think about it slowly."

Lu Rankong added, "But after you leave, you can't tell anyone what happened just now. You are not allowed to say anything. And you haven't completely cleared yourself of suspicion, you have only been temporarily cleared. Maybe we will have to continue investigating later. Do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand. I will keep my mouth shut when I get out and not say a word." The medical officer nodded hurriedly.

"You still stand in the same place after you go out."

"OK……"

Lu Rankong opened the door and gestured to him to go out, and he quickly left the tea room.

"Doctor Lin, how is it? How is it?" people in the safe area asked curiously.

The medical officer didn't even raise his head, as if he hadn't heard it, and stood back at his starting position.

"Next one..." Lu Rankong stood at the door of the tea room and pointed at the starship soldier standing behind him.

This starship soldier was one of the ones guarding the starship door. When he was called, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face, but he still walked into the tea room steadily.

Lu Rankong closed the door again, and just like before, he and Lan Yu looked at him in silence.

The starship soldier stood upright in the middle of the tea room. Because Lu Rankong had told him in advance that he would be whipped when he came in, he seemed very calm, unlike the medical officer who was nervous and flustered.

He just glanced at the whip in Lan Yu's hand quickly a few times.

"Colonel Lu has already said that if you are an ordinary person, it won't hurt too much and you can rest assured. But if you are a Longte, you will be in so much pain that you would rather die than live. The special force of the whip will make the wound more painful than a knife." Lan Yu gently moved his right hand, and the whip dragging on the ground slid along, making a hissing sound.

The Starfleet soldier swallowed and replied, "I understand..."

Lan Yu stopped talking and raised the whip in his hand.

The starship soldier looked straight ahead, still standing straight.

The whip formed a semi-arc in the air, creating a gust of wind and falling towards the starship soldier's legs.

Slightly to the right.

At that moment, the motionless starship soldier moved his right foot imperceptibly and stood up again.

He tensed his muscles, ready to withstand the whip. Although Lan Yu kept saying that it didn't hurt, he knew that the whip was a weapon placed in the tactical room. It was made of the hide of the Dutch beast on the planet Pluo. Once it hit the body, even the lightest force would be unbearable.

The whip hit his right calf as expected, but the force was so light, as if something had brushed against his trouser leg and did not touch his flesh at all.

The starship soldier was a little dazed, then heaved a sigh of relief. When he realized that Lan Yu and Lu Rankong were still looking at him, he quickly stood up straight.

"Soldiers, go out." Lan Yu said.

Seeing that the starship soldier was still standing there, Lu Rankong waved at him and said, "Go out, go out."

The starship soldier turned around woodenly and walked out woodenly. When he reached the door, he turned around again: "May I ask why you didn't even fight me to confirm that I was not the Lunte starman?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he added, "Of course, I am not from the Lonte star."

Lu Rankong touched his chin and said, "It has not been confirmed, but it has been temporarily ruled out. It may be because you are worried about whether it will hurt when the whip falls on your body, instead of just worrying about your left leg."

The starship soldier seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand. He nodded suddenly, and then shook his head blankly.

Lu Rankong: "Go out, go out, and don't reveal a single word after you go out."

"yes……"

After this starship soldier went out, he stood there without saying a word. No matter how the people on his right asked questions, he, like the medical officer, kept his mouth as tight as a clam shell, not saying a word or even a glance, just staring intently at the floor in front of him.

Although no one knew what they had been through or how many times they had been whipped, they all looked fine, except that the medical officer looked a little paler than usual.

Everyone became more and more curious and stopped whispering. They just stared at the small door of the tea room, watching the remaining people go in nervously and come out with their mouths shut. Even the captain began to pace back and forth with a complicated expression on his face.

Now there are only two people who have not entered yet, one is an engine room operator and the other is a starship soldier.

The communications soldier is now in the tea room. He can't hear any movement inside, and he doesn't know whether the so-called Longte alien is with him.

Time passes by minute by minute, and it seems particularly long.

With a slight click, the door of the tea room opened. Everyone stood up straight, staring at the open door with bated breath.

The communications soldier came out, and like the first few people, there was nothing unusual about him, he didn't say anything, and stood back in his position.

The shirt that was half hanging outside had been tucked into his trousers, making him look neatly dressed.

"It's your turn, come in." Lu Rankong said to the starship soldier.

Lan Yu knew that these were the last two remaining among the eight people. If he couldn't find the Longte people again, he would have to think of another way.

This Lonte man is obviously very good at disguise. He has been Officer Wang for so long, but he doesn't reveal any flaws. It will be very difficult to find him again among the group of people outside.

"Colonel K, Colonel Lu." The voice of the starship soldier greeting woke him from his thoughts.

Lan Yu looked over and recognized that this was the soldier who stayed at the entrance of the starship to close the hatch, and followed him and Lu Rankong to the second floor.

On the way, he was introducing the cargo hold on the first floor to them and was very familiar with the starship, unlike a Lonte.

However, Officer Wang must have frequently handed over prisoners or supplies to starships in the past, so it is not impossible that he is familiar with the internal structure of the starship.

Thinking of this, he perked up and quickly got into his role.

Lu Rankong still leaned against the door, smiled at the starship soldier, and said, "You know it too, right? For normal people who have not been injured, especially trained starship soldiers, this whip will not cause any harm, and the pain is completely bearable. But if it were the injured Lunt alien, he would definitely not be able to bear it. In theory, you followed Colonel K and I to the second floor, so you are the least suspicious, but you still have to be cautious, don’t you think?"

"I know and understand. Please don't show mercy, Colonel K." The starship soldier stood straight with a calm face and firm eyes.

Lu Rankong nodded and said to Lan Yu: "Let's start..."

Lan Yu moved her wrists, then slowly turned her neck, but her eyes were fixed on the starship soldier.

The Starfleet soldier kept looking ahead, not making eye contact with him, nor trying to glance at the whip in his hand. But after waiting for a while and before he raised the whip, he looked at him in confusion.

The moment their eyes met, Lan Yu quickly raised his hand and swung the whip.

The whip made a sound of wind breaking through the air and swung towards the starship soldier's left leg.

"Snap!" The crisp sound of a whip echoed throughout the room.

Then everything returned to calm in an instant.

Lan Yu still held the whip in her hand, her eyes still without warmth or content, she just looked at the starship soldier indifferently.

The starship soldier also stood firmly in place, just frowned slightly, and then returned to his original expression. Just like Lu Rankong said, if it were a normal person, they would only feel a little pain and be able to bear it.

"How is it? Are you feeling okay?" Lu Rankong asked while standing at the door.

The Starfleet soldier turned around, smiled, and said, "It hurts a little, but it's okay."

"Look, see if there are any whip marks on your legs. If there is bleeding, you need to apply some medicine." Lu Rankong said.

"It's okay. Let's go back and check it out later." The starship soldier touched the back of his head in a simple manner. "Isn't there another person outside? Let's wait until we have interrogated him first. Capturing the Lunte starman is more important."

"Let's take a look..." Lu Rankong moved to the side and blocked the door handle.

"Okay..." the starship soldier said, then bent down and began to roll up his left trouser leg, rolling it up in circles, revealing his entire calf.

There was indeed only a red whip mark, which was slightly protruding from the surface of the skin and did not break the skin. It did not look too serious and would heal in a day even without applying any medicine.

"Thank you for your hard work. I'll ask the captain to make something delicious for you as a reward tonight." Lu Rankong walked over with a smile and patted his shoulder.

The starship soldier said sincerely: "It's really okay, we often encounter this when we are unloading cargo—"

He was interrupted before he could finish his sentence, because the hand that Lu Rankong had around his shoulder suddenly had a shiny needle in it, which was pressed against his neck.

Chi!

The needle pierces the skin, making a slight sound that you can't hear if you don't pay attention.

But the starship soldiers felt as if they had heard the most terrifying sound in the world. Their pupils instantly dilated and their breathing stagnated.

Lu Rankong inserted the needle into his neck, pressed his thumb on the push rod, and asked softly, word by word: "How should I greet you? "Officer Wang"? ”

The starship soldier seemed to struggle, and he shouted briefly: "Don't move. If you move again, I can't guarantee that I won't push the potion into your neck."

The Starfleet soldier immediately stopped struggling.

Lan Yu also placed the whip on the table beside him, and the delicate injection was casually held between his fingertips, shaking it gently.

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm the Lunte alien?" The starship soldier seemed to have regained his sanity, his expression was nervous but confused, and his tone was very innocent.

Lan Yu said: "That's what I mean."

"But, but when did I become like a Lunt? You can't just accuse me when you can't catch me. Even if I have a good temper, I won't let you frame me." The starship soldier didn't dare to move, and his breathing gradually became heavier. "I want to see the captain, you can't just do this, I want to see the captain."

Lu Rankong pinched his shoulder with one hand and held the needle that had pierced his skin with the other hand, maintaining the original posture without moving.

"I noticed your abnormality after you came in. A normal person would be nervous and uneasy in this situation, even if they were repeatedly told that the whip wouldn't hurt. Especially since everyone on the starship knows this whip, what material it's made of, and they also know that even the slightest force would hurt."

He paused. "Especially since the person who did it was K."

Lan Yu glanced at him.

Lu Rankong continued, "The sound and effect of the whip will make people subconsciously dodge or cover up. Even if they are mentally prepared, they will be exposed at some point. This is instinct. Even your Captain Wu's breathing rate increased a lot when K raised the whip."

Lan Yu continued, "But you are different. You didn't dodge or hide from the beginning to the end, and you didn't seem nervous at all."

He tapped his thigh with his hand, lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "That was an overly deliberate performance. He deliberately made himself ignore his instincts and act fearless. It was like... a perfect performance."

"But I don't feel any pain, nor do I feel panic. If I have to pretend to be in pain, that would be a performance," the Starfleet soldier said angrily.

Lan Yu suddenly laughed. It was a different laugh from the gloomy one she had after boarding the ship. Instead, it was a laugh that came from the joy in her heart, as if she had heard something interesting. Her eyebrows and mouth corners were curved, but there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.

He said, "Because Leopard-Colonel Lu has been emphasizing that when the whip falls on the injured leg of the Longte people, they will feel a level 10 pain, while normal people will not feel pain."

The starship soldier seemed to realize something was wrong, a trace of panic flashed across his eyes, but he immediately calmed down.

"But you don't know that I didn't whip the legs of those guys at the beginning. I only whipped you because you were too suspicious. And I used a lot of force when whipping you. Because of the special nature of the whip, there is indeed no trace on the surface of your calf, but the bones inside are actually broken. You think you are just enduring the gunshot wound, but in fact you are also enduring the pain of broken bones. If a normal person has his bones broken, can he still laugh and say it doesn't hurt? Can he bear it?"

Lan Yu suppressed the smile on her face and said word by word: "Have you forgotten who I am? I am K. If I can identify the real Longte people, what does it matter if I break a few people's legs?"

The starship soldier didn't say anything, but his breathing became slightly rapid.

Lu Rankong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Let me think about it. You should have stayed in Officer Wang's body the whole time, lying on the ground outside the starship, giving us the illusion that you were already on board. When the starship soldier went to close the hatch, you left Officer Wang's body and entered his spiritual realm."

"At first we watched the surveillance video, but it only stopped after we saw K and I board the ship. If we continue to watch further, we might see something interesting."

Lan Yu smiled and said, "Officer Wang, your performance was wonderful and perfect, almost flawless. Congratulations, your part has now been completed."
