"Hello, hello, hello? Why is the signal so bad? Is Chu Xiaoye there?"
"Boss Chu is on his way back." Chen Qingyu took over the conversation and met the man's eyes on the screen. "Are you Chen Yu?"
"It's me. You, Cattail, are facing an unprecedented crisis this time."
"Why does this person speak in such a sarcastic tone?" Xu Bing'er complained.
“It seems like… he’s a major shareholder on the board of directors?” Many people in the company were not familiar with Shen Yu, but quite a few recognized his identity.
"Hello, Director Shen." Chen Qingyu nodded to Shen Yu. "I don't know how to address you now?"
Qing Yu is one of the few people in the company who knows the inside story of Shen Yu. This is what Chu Yao told him.
"No need to be so formal, just call me by my name." Chen Yu on the other side of the screen waved his hand. "Something big has happened to Maowei, and as our ally, Xinghui naturally has to help."
"Xinghui? The infamous rebel?" Someone in the crowd frowned. "How did this group of people get involved with us?"
"Thank you Xinghui for your assistance to Maowei." Chen Qingyu expressed his gratitude in a very official manner. "But it may not be enough."
"Just giving you some 'chips'." Chen Yu smiled. "Can you help me contact Chu Xiaoye? She seems to have blocked me again."
"No need to contact, I'm here."
A clear female voice came from behind the crowd. Hearing the voice of the person coming, everyone was alerted and turned around quickly.
"Sister Xiaoye!"
"Sister Chu!"
"Boss Chu!"
Various names were heard from the crowd, and the moment they saw Chu Yao, everyone couldn't hide their excitement.
She didn't even have to say anything; just standing there made everyone feel more at ease.
Chu Yao has always been the backbone of Maowei Company, both in the past and now.
Chu Yao's clothes were a little tattered, and her expression was a little tired, as if she was exhausted. Days of traveling had made her exhausted, but she knew she couldn't rest yet.
"Why are you so embarrassed? Did you just fight with alien insects?" Chen Yu's teasing voice came from the screen.
"Yeah, I just escaped from a 'big alien insect'."
"It's rare that you didn't refute me."
"Stop talking nonsense." Chu Yao's eyes swept across the several screens in front of him, and he learned the current situation from everyone's explanation.
She used magic to pass through Steel Dome's troops, and now she finally saw the entire picture around the pharmaceutical factory through the panoramic view. The number of Steel Dome's troops made her astonished.
What a big deal... It seems that Feldman's existence is much more important than I thought, far more important than Lian Jining.
Chu Yao quickly figured out the cause and effect of the incident, but she didn't expect Gang Qiong's people to act so quickly.
The only ship heading to Haicha Island in the past few days was the one they were on. Coupled with Yu Chen's behind-the-scenes conspiracy, Maowei Company unsurprisingly became the biggest suspect.
Chu Yao's only concern was why Steel Dome didn't take action against Nord Corporation. The island clearly belonged to Nord, which meant that Nord and the Blood Alliance were definitely subordinate to each other.
Could it be that they want to kill the chicken to scare the monkey?
"Chu Xiaoye, how on earth did you offend Gang Qiong?"
"Do you think I want to provoke you?" Chu Yao rolled her eyes. "Let's not talk about that for now. Why did you send such a small number of people? They're not even enough to fill the gaps in Steel Dome's teeth."
"Please, this is all the troops Xinghui has in Lingyuan! I've been very kind, okay? When I heard that our allies were in trouble, I immediately sent troops to rescue you!" Chen Yu grinned. "It would be fine if you didn't say thank you, but you actually complained that there weren't enough people."
"Thirty tanks, five mechas, is this all the troops of Xinghui?" Chu Yao didn't believe a single word of what Chen Yu said. "Okay, thank you."
"I'm so happy to hear you thank me in my lifetime. Ah, I, Shen Yu, will die without regrets..."
Shen Yu was halfway through his words when he suddenly heard some strange noises from his side, which seemed to be a message notification sound.
"Let's not talk about it for now. I seem to have some problems here." Shen Yu straightened his face and said, "I will help you buy time. You'd better negotiate with Jack as soon as possible. The Steel Dome troops will not wait for you."
"Why...why on earth did you, Xinghui, help Maowei to this point?"
"We'll talk in detail after you resolve the current problem."
The contact came to an abrupt end.
By now, Chu Yao obviously no longer believed Shen Yu's previous nonsense about "helping him eliminate the family's enemies". It was obviously a lie, but she actually believed it at the time.
This is bizarre! How come I'm the one who's caught up in everything? Is it just Lingyuan Star that's so complicated, or is it like this on every planet?
Chu Yao stopped her wild thoughts. She had to find a way to lead everyone through the current crisis first.
She turned her gaze to Chen Qingyu: "Is the 'switch' I told you about in Fetion ready?"
——
Lingyuan Star, in an unknown facility.
This place looks like the living room of a mansion, but there are no windows on all sides, and they are all blocked with thick iron sheets.
There are uneven bookshelves surrounding the square table in the center, and a large whiteboard is placed on the widest wall, which is particularly eye-catching under the illumination of several table lamps.
The whiteboard is covered with maps and various photos, which are connected by pushpins and lines, just like the deduction boards commonly seen in criminal investigation movies and TV dramas.
There were two people sitting next to the whiteboard, a man and a woman. The man was Chen Yu, who had just talked to Chu Yao, and the woman was operating several projection computers.
"I got a call back from Steel Dome." The woman had silver hair and was covered in various accessories, looking quite unconventional. "It's Jack."
