"High Seas, the Holy Curtain?" Ye Xingchen's expression changed slightly.
Bai Zilin is really reckless. After returning from the border, he had already ordered her to return to the capital, but he didn't expect her to get involved in the matter of the Holy Curtain again.
There's a huge organization behind this Holy Curtain; is she courting death?
"Right, I'm not too sure, but that's not the most important thing. The important thing is that the Bai family's young lady seems to have feelings for you too." Ling Yan chuckled, "I've passed this hurdle, so how do you plan to pass hers?"
"This..." Ye Xingchen was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Bye... I'm leaving." Ling Yan chuckled and then happily walked away.
Watching her departing figure, Ye Xingchen was both amused and exasperated. Without thinking too much, he quickly dialed his aunt's number.
"What's wrong?" Xia Hanyue's voice came from the other end of the phone. Ye Xingchen hadn't contacted her in the few days since he came back.
She is already engaged to Li Yijin's brother, and the two will be getting married soon.
"Bai Zilin is back? Why didn't you tell me?" Ye Xingchen's tone was somewhat resentful. He had previously instructed Xia Hanyue to keep an eye on Bai Zilin's situation.
Now she's gone to international waters and done something so big, and he doesn't even know.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that she specifically asked me not to tell you," Xia Hanyue said. "You don't know the specific reason yourself, do you have to make me tell you outright?"
"This..." Ye Xingchen was embarrassed. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, I'm sorry, Auntie. These things were originally my private matters. I will handle them."
"She just attended a victory celebration. Let's go see her. By the way, the organization behind the high seas hospital ship she provoked is the Temple, and the Temple's core research institute is located on the Holy Veil."
Xia Hanyue sighed softly and said, "This girl really doesn't know her place. She shouldn't have gotten involved in these things."
"The leader of the Holy Curtain, Joss, has been imprisoned in Changshan Prison south of Yanjing. She is in charge of the interrogation, but there are rumors that people from foreign organizations will come to rescue him."
"Who's planning a prison break?" Ye Xingchen frowned slightly. "This is China, after all."
“Those people have always been lawless, and China will teach them a lesson. However, Bai Zilin’s handling of the situation is very bad. You should get to Zhoushan as soon as possible,” Xia Hanyue said.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie. I'll be there as soon as possible." Ye Xingchen nodded and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up with Xia Hanyue, Ye Xingchen immediately dialed Bai Zilin's number.
The phone rang twice and then the other party hung up. When Ye Xingchen dialed back, the phone was switched off.
The prisoner should be under interrogation right now. Ye Xingchen didn't have time to think. He quickly called for a prison pass and rushed towards the prison.
Changshan Prison is located in Changshan, more than 100 kilometers south of Yanjing.
This place is a military base, and a mountain nearby has been hollowed out. The prison is almost entirely filled with serious criminals.
Joss is a bearded man, a tech fanatic, and the supreme commander of the Holy Curtain.
The Tabernacle belongs to the sixth chapel of the Temple and is an important department of the Temple.
Their research on organ rejection prevention technology and medical pods attracts countless wealthy individuals to recuperate on their St. Curtain every year.
Nearly a thousand people die each year from experiments and from organ donations.
Human life is as insignificant as an ant in the eyes of these people.
Joss was an aristocrat of the Western world, and even when he was arrested, he maintained the elegance befitting an aristocrat.
He was drinking red wine and eating steak, and he didn't look like he was in prison at all; he looked more like he was on vacation.
The interrogation room where he was held was made of high-strength alloy, which could shield all signal sources. Moreover, the high-strength alloy surrounding it could withstand the bombardment of tanks.
Bai Zilin, dressed in a crisp police uniform, stared coldly at Qiao Si, her face expressionless.
Throughout the entire meal, Joss never even glanced at her; he simply continued enjoying his steak.
Finally, he finished the last piece of steak on his plate, then put down his knife and fork, grabbed a napkin to wipe his mouth, and took a sip of the red wine in front of him.
Then he shook his head: "I am very dissatisfied with your meal. First of all, the steak was too tough, and secondly, the red wine was not fresh and tasted sour."
"Is this how you Chinese treat guests from afar? Heh, can't Xuan Yu Pavilion even provide something decent?"
Bai Zilin patiently waited for him to finish his drink, then said calmly, "Mr. Joss, if you've finished eating, can we have a chat?"
“Sure, of course.” Joss raised his cup, gestured to Bai Zilin from afar, and then put the cup down.
He said with a smile, "Miss Bai, you are the bravest woman I have ever met."
"You actually managed to sneak onto our Holy Curtain ship under the guise of a wealthy man, lie in wait there for over a month, and use trickery to bring our ships close to Chinese waters. Then, the Chinese Coast Guard, together with the Xuan Yu Pavilion, launched a coordinated operation to wipe us out in one fell swoop."
“Impressive, and very skillful. On behalf of the Temple, I formally extend an invitation to you.”
"I invite you to become a member of our temple. We will be colleagues and work together for our future plans."
“I’m sorry, I have no interest in your temple, nor in your temple’s plans. I am a police officer.” Bai Zilin pointed to her clothes.
“Oh, I know, I see.” Joss nodded slightly. “But that doesn’t stop our deal.”
“There is no deal between us.” Bai Zilin shook her head gently. “You don’t need to try to turn me to the other side. All the conditions you offer are useless to me.”
“Miss Bai, don’t be so absolute.” Joss smiled slightly: “Our Holy Curtain is researching a plan for immortality.”
"The human body could have lived forever, but our genes are locked by some invisible shackles. As long as we break these shackles, we can live forever."
“We have recruited thousands of participants who volunteered for our experiments, and we have already achieved some success.”
"Miss Bai, if you are interested, you can also become a member of our experiment. I guarantee you will not regret it."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Joss, I'm really not interested in your plan. Let's talk about your business instead."
