Chapter 458 I will do the promise you can’t keep
In the office of the director of Tianhai City Special Management Bureau.
Chang Yue was staring at the computer screen on his desk with a serious expression.
It was as if the content being played at the moment was also a great shock to him, so he was concentrating and didn't want to miss every second.
"...Finally, is it coming?"
Chang Yue took a deep breath, folded his hands on the table, rested his chin on the pillow, and waited quietly.
At this moment, the door was kicked open.
"Chang Yue, where are you? Why don't you come to the meeting?"
Lin Ze's expression was extremely angry at this moment.
It was such an important meeting but the director did not attend.
But when she kicked open the door and saw Chang Yue staring intently at the screen with an extremely serious expression, Lin Ze felt that she seemed to have misunderstood him.
yes......
No matter how unreliable he is, he is still a director.
At this moment, Chang Yue was so focused that he didn't even notice Lin Ze approaching.
"Director Chang." Lin Ze changed his address back to him, and his tone softened slightly. "It's not a good idea for you to worry alone here. We should..."
But when Lin Ze slowly approached, she suddenly heard a voice coming from the screen.
"We are all honored VVVVVVIP users~ Therefore, this channel is specially opened for you~ Um, hum, hum~ No secret screen recording, okay, now, I will slowly... tell you what my measurements are, um, or let me show you with actual actions~ First of all... my bust... Look carefully, everyone..."
"Finally...it's finally coming..." Chang Yue's breathing became heavier.
He has been following this anchor for a year.
I watch it every day and give rewards every day. Today I finally became a VVVVVVIP user and got the qualification to enter the small black room.
He must remember this moment, this woman's measurements, hehe.
I Chang Yue accepted it.
Bang--
But just as the girl was about to take off her clothes and expose her breasts, a fist smashed through the screen.
"OH OH OH OH OH OH!! Aa ...
Chang Yue let out a terrifying howl.
"No! No! This opportunity will never come again!"
Lin Ze's expression was as cold as ice. She threw the monitor away, completely destroying it. Then she grabbed Chang Yue, who was distraught and in tears, and pulled him up across the desk.
"You better give me a fucking explanation, Chang Yue, or I'm going to shatter your soul today."
"Hey! Don't be impulsive! Let's talk it over nicely!"
"I have nothing to say to you. You disappoint me so much."
Lin Ze looked at Chang Yue as if he were trash, and then threw him back onto the chair.
"Hey, I know. Prometheus is malfunctioning. Didn't I tell you long ago that it was bound to fail sooner or later? It's completely beyond the limits of current human technology."
Chang Yue adjusted his collar and said helplessly, "It's like Pandora's Box. Although it looks very tempting, who knows what will be revealed after it is opened."
"So? You're just here watching a female anchor? You're not even in a meeting?"
Chang Yue stood up, walked to Lin Ze and patted her shoulder.
"No matter what we do now, it's useless. The key lies in the people inside Prometheus. What they do is what matters most."
"Chang Yue, tell me honestly why you want Li Muhan to go."
Lin Ze stared into Chang Yue's eyes again.
"Hey, why are you still asking this? Isn't it true that he is the only one who can catch Moriarty?"
"Is it really just that? Chang Yue, I'm not stupid. Before, after Lingying helped Li Muhan recast the Fu Jiang Zhen Mo, she asked me a question."
Chang Yue squinted slightly and looked into Lin Ze's eyes.
"What did she say?" Chang Yue asked.
"She said that the forging of the Fu Jiang Zhen Mo sword utilized Li Muhan's own strength and the demonic power within him, but... she couldn't sense any human presence in the forged sword."
"She's just a crazy girl, why do you care about her?"
Chang Yue turned his head away, avoiding Lin Ze's gaze.
At this point, Lin Ze was basically certain that Chang Yue was hiding something from him.
"During a previous operation, I suppressed the demon in Li Muhan's body. During that operation, I discovered that Li Muhan's memory was very confused. You and I both know his file..."
"Lin Ze, do we really have to bring this up? Didn't we agree to let this matter go until we find out the truth?"
Lin Ze walked around to Chang Yue's front and stared at him intently.
"No, I must make it clear to you right now, Chang Yue. There's something wrong with Li Muhan's file. You and I have confirmed that the place where he lived as a child wasn't an orphanage at all. To be more precise, it was a place disguised as an orphanage."
Chang Yue couldn't avoid Lin Ze's questions. He knew that if he didn't say a few words to her now, this woman's emotions might get out of control.
Prometheus is in enough trouble already.
If Lin Ze loses control again... then both humans and aliens may be in real danger.
"The orphanage's true identity...is the abandoned Special Management Bureau's Biological Genetic Research Center."
Lin Ze still gave this answer, even though both of them knew it.
But she had to make Chang Yue face this problem.
"Li Muhan lived in that research center until he was nine years old. It wasn't until he was ten that the center was abandoned and he was transferred to a normal orphanage. He was adopted by his current foster parents a month after being there, but he seems to have no memory of it at all. Chang Yue, tell me honestly, who is Li Muhan, and what exactly is the Ten Thousand Demons Hall in his body?"
Lin Ze grabbed Chang Yue's collar again and asked word by word, "And his father, Li Chengtian, your brother, why did you send him to that place?"
Just as Lin Ze was about to ask further questions, she raised her head slightly and met Chang Yue's eyes.
Those eyes were flashing with a little light.
At this moment, Chang Yue was also exuding a terrifying aura.
"Let go, Lin Ze."
“…”
Lin Ze slowly let go of his hand.
"What's your purpose in caring so desperately for a teenager? Does it make you look more like a normal human woman?"
Chang Yue's words were so cold that Lin Ze felt unfamiliar.
But at the same time, it also reminded her of the past.
I thought of my first meeting with Chang Yue and the other three people.
"...What do you mean?"
The corners of Lin Ze's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a somewhat awkward smile.
"This is the final test for Li Muhan, Lin Ze."
"A test...? You said you would keep him safe..."
"Yes, I will keep him safe."
"You said that to Li Chengtian back then, and you said that to Xie Chengtian too. But when Li Chengtian was going through all that, what were you doing? When Xie Chengtian received the transfer order, which practically meant he was going to Yulang City to die, what did you do?"
Lin Ze slowly took two steps back, then turned and walked towards the door.
"You just said that I wanted to become more like a human woman?"
When Lin Ze walked to the door, she turned her head slightly and looked at Chang Yue. The familiar smile on her face was no longer there.
"What a shame! If this is what humanity is, and this is what humanity promises, I don't want to be anything like it..."
She slowly reached out and untied the hair accessory that bound her hair.
When the long black hair fell down like a waterfall, Chang Yue seemed to have returned to the past... the days when he was full of vigor and energy to slay demons and eliminate evil, and he had no responsibilities but could live freely every day.
"Where are you going?"
Finally, he asked as he looked at Lin Ze's leaving back.
Lin Ze walked towards the end of the corridor while taking off his suit jacket from the Special Management Bureau.
"I promised Li Muhan that I would keep him safe. If you can't keep your promise, I will do it."
Snap——
The moment the suit jacket was thrown into the air, the girl's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.
