Xie Xuan transmigrated to a wasteland world over a hundred years later.
Marine fungi, initially affected by nuclear-contaminated water, were brought back to land by a tsunami, and a spore inf...
Xie Xuan looked for them one by one, and the second room out of the elevator was Small Conference Room 2.
The walls of the conference room were opaque and the door was closed. Xie Xuan knocked on the door and an unfamiliar voice came from inside, "Come in."
Xie Xuan walked in and found that the scene was completely different from what she had imagined.
The four seats above were empty, with four virtual projections projected on them. In addition to these four seats, the person sitting in the front row was the middle-aged man that Xie Xuan had seen when she went to visit Xiao Yao.
Later, Xie Xuan found this person on the official website of the 45th Branch. This was Director Chen, who Ji Chenghong had mentioned before and used to work in the ecological organization. Behind Director Chen sat the senior executives of the 45th Branch, whom Xie Xuan had only seen on the official website.
There was only one seat left vacant in the conference room, the lowest one.
"Ms. Xie Xuan, please take a seat." One of the four virtual projections spoke.
Today's virtual imaging technology is already quite advanced. It can not only transmit sound in real time, but also transmit images without any error, basically realizing the conception in science fiction movies.
But Xie Xuan didn't know the person who was speaking, but she knew the person next to him, who was Si Xun.
It had only been one day since they last met, but now Si Xun seemed to be back to the time when they first met, glancing at her coldly, as if glancing at an insignificant street lamp on the side of the road.
Xie Xuan sat down in the last remaining seat. The person next to Director Chen said, "We asked you to come here today to learn about the accident that occurred in District 13 the day before yesterday."
Xie Xuan's eyes cautiously turned to the person who spoke first, and then looked at Si Xun's expression clockwise, but he seemed to have no expression.
Maybe she should pretend she didn't know for now.
"District 13?" Xie Xuan asked suspiciously, "Are you talking about District 13 where the Ecological Organization conducted biological experiments a few days ago?"
"Ms. Xie, please don't avoid the question." This time the person who spoke was another one of the four projections sitting in the front.
Just by looking at his blue and white uniform, Xie Xuan could guess that he was from an ecological organization.
Xie Xuan said calmly: "I didn't avoid the question, because I have no idea what happened in District 13."
The person who spoke sneered and called up a video. In the video, Xie Xuan and Si Xun were standing together and talking. Judging from the background environment, it should have been filmed at the celebration party for the successful experiment before the accident happened.
The video was not long. Xie Xuan recalled that it should have been taken by a psychic from an ecological organization in the venue.
Xie Xuan was a little surprised that the ecological organization would make such preparations, but she couldn't lose her composure at this time.
No matter what Si Xun said, Xie Xuan could not admit what she had done.
Although if you think about it carefully, she didn't do anything. At most, she stole a helicopter of the ecological organization. She didn't kill the mutant who was pushed down the building at the beginning. Later, it was only the ecological organization that killed them. However, they would definitely not release any images that were detrimental to the ecological organization.
It is even likely that the ecological organization will charge the casualties of people from other districts who died in what they called accidents to their own District Six.
"So what does this video prove?" Xie Xuan asked in a puzzled manner.
"It proves you're lying. You were at the scene of the accident in District 13."
Xie Xuan's expression became even more puzzled. "What lie did I tell? Is this video showing the accident? Could it be that the accident you're talking about is just a few words between me and the director?"
Someone coughed lightly, obviously trying to suppress a laugh.
Another member of the ecological organization said sternly, "That's enough! Stop playing dumb, Xie Xuan. As Director Si Xun's subordinate, you brutally attacked representatives from Districts 9 and 10 while traveling with him to District 13 to attend the experimental site exhibition. You should be ashamed of your crimes."
If Xie Xuan hadn't clearly known that the representatives from Districts 9 and 10 were still standing when she left the venue, she would have almost believed that she had really done such a thing.
"I think you're the one who should be ashamed," Xie Xuan said with a smile. "You're trying to slander someone's innocence, aren't you? I can do that, too. I even said that the representatives from Districts 9 and 10 were killed by your ecological organization. Is it fun to play the thief crying thief here?"
"Xie Xuan!" This time it was Director Chen who spoke. "Watch your attitude!"
Xie Xuan turned around and said in surprise, "Why are you wearing the Ecological Bureau uniform? Doesn't your master find it offensive?"
"Ahem." The person sitting next to Si Xun coughed. "Director Si has said this many times. Unless you can produce more solid evidence, you're going to incite internal strife among the various districts of the Confederacy based solely on one-sided statements. I don't think you can bear the responsibility."
The Ecological Organization representative said grimly, "What kind of conclusive evidence does Director Si want? District 13 has become a high-risk area outside the wall. Are you, District 6, going to ignore the facts in order to protect the murderer?"
Si Xun, who had been silent the entire time, finally raised his eyes and looked across at the other side. He showed a smile that was not sincere, "I return this sentence to you as well."
He paused and said, "I don't think I've ever seen you two at the test site in District 13. So while you're speaking so confidently here, you didn't actually see what happened there with your own eyes, right?"
Si Xun didn't give the other party a chance to refute before continuing, "You two should not shout too loudly. You should be thankful that District 13 has now become a high-level area outside the wall. Otherwise, you would be the ones being questioned right now."
I didn't know what the people in the ecological organization were thinking and didn't speak at the first time.
"District Six will absolutely not acknowledge anything it hasn't done. We won't hand Xie Xuan over. However, to demonstrate that District Six has no intention of antagonizing the Ecological Organization or attempting to disintegrate the entire Human Confederacy, Xie Xuan will be transferred to the Development Department. I believe this approach is sufficient for you and your leaders to explain."
The two people from the ecological organization looked at each other and said, "Director Si, you..."
"Don't push your luck." Si Xun said sternly.
One of them snorted coldly, while another frowned and said, "Since Director Si said so, we are willing to give Director Si a favor, but Xie Xuan must be accompanied by one of our people to escort her outside the wall."
Si Xun didn't say anything.
The silence lasted for a full half minute, and no one backed down.
Xie Xuan felt that if she had the opportunity to write a resume in the future, she might be able to add a highlight, saying that Si Xun, deputy director of the Sixth District Ecological Bureau, had argued for her.
