Chapter 97 Tripartite Relationship
Xuan Linwen's lips curled down slightly as he thought to himself that Dang Hongyuan's intuition was terrifyingly accurate.
Although he didn't initially stay there for Lu Zhi, he did stay for him later.
"Do you know Lv Zhi?" Dang Hongyuan asked him.
Xuan Linwen paused for a moment and said, "What does this have to do with the new generation? My acquaintance with him is a personal matter."
Dang Hongyuan then asked, "What did you mean by what you said to your companion earlier? What happened between you in the laboratory?"
Whenever the topic of law enforcement comes up, Xuan Linwen feels the seed of his mind throbbing, as if it's about to explode.
He couldn't help but rub his temples and said, "I won't tell you. Party and team, just give up. Why don't you ask something else?"
They talked for nearly three hours, and the lawyer waited outside for three hours as well.
He was behind a secluded building, leaning against the wall, lazily yawning. He suddenly thought it would be better to go back and flirt with his passenger than to wait here for so long.
"Law Master." Someone was calling his name.
As soon as Lu Zhi turned around, he saw Yang Xie.
His expression turned slightly cold. Since he didn't know when Yang Xie had approached him, could it be because he had focused most of his attention on the clone and hadn't noticed?
"What a coincidence, Captain Yang." Lu Zhi cut off his connection with his clone and greeted Yang Xie as if nothing had happened.
"Unfortunately, I've come to see you." Yang Xie blocked Lu Zhi's path.
Lu Zhi twisted his neck and said, "Alright, just get to the point. My time is very tight."
"You're the same as Xuan Linwen, aren't you?" Yang Xie held a gun in his hand, the black muzzle pointed at Lu Zhi, his murderous aura sharp.
"Captain Yang, what do you think makes Xuan Linwen and me look alike?" Lu Zhi yawned and reached out to open the gun barrel. "If Captain Yang is here to ask such a boring question, then please leave."
His expression was so calm that he didn't change at all after being exposed. If you looked closely at his eyes, you could even see a hint of disdain.
“Oh, right.” Lu Zhi added, “If I were like Xuan Linwen, I would have been in the base for months. If I wanted to deal with you, the base would have been destroyed long ago. You should focus less on me and more on the people around you.”
Lu Zhi's "friendly" reminder made his expression even colder, but his killing intent subsided slightly. He twirled the pistol between his fingers and said coldly, "We're not the only ones who doubt you."
"I'm curious, how did you come to suspect me, such a normal person?" Lv Zhi said casually, leaning against the wall.
"It's not something that can't be said," Yang Xie said. "The patient you treated in the infirmary was already infected, but after your treatment, the source of infection in his body completely disappeared."
Lu Zhi's expression froze for a moment, then he frowned. He hadn't expected it to be because of this; he had been careless.
But then he felt something was off, so he asked, "Shouldn't they have taken me to the lab?"
"Do you think we're the kind of organization that arrests people indiscriminately?" Yang Xie was speechless at his words.
Lu Zhi raised an eyebrow and said, "So you guys are quite virtuous in martial arts."
As Lu Zhi was about to leave, Yang Xie called him back. This time, his tone was not murderous, but rather like a reminder: "Don't be too conspicuous in the base."
Lu Zhi shrugged and said, "I've been so low-key, where exactly have I been ostentatious?"
"Your relationship with the attendant." Yang Xie's words were pointed.
Sui Cheng already attracted a lot of attention at the base, and Lu Zhi's presence naturally made him another person to be noticed.
"Do you even have to interfere with other people's dating lives?" Lu Zhi was quite helpless. Having a popular crush is just so frustrating.
...
Yang Xie went to the interrogation room to wait for Dang Hongyuan to come out. After the two left, Lu Zhi came out as well.
His powerful mental energy enveloped him, causing those guarding the area to subconsciously ignore his presence.
The clone that had severed ties with the wall huddled in a corner like an ordinary vine.
He only came back to life after the law enforcement officer arrived.
Xuan Linwen also sensed something and quickly looked towards the doorway.
Because of the seed of the spirit of law enforcement in my mind, I can sense him when he gets close.
He had a bad feeling.
The door opened, and Lu Zhi walked in with a leisurely gait.
Xuan Linwen subconsciously leaned back, not knowing what he was there for, and explained directly, "I didn't say anything about you."
Lu Zhi sat down in front of him, propping his head up with one hand, tiny vines twining and playing around his fingertips. "I'm not worried about that. He definitely won't tell you for the sake of your life. I just came to ask you some trivial things."
"Did the messenger send you?" Xuan Linwen sighed helplessly, "You two are really something, taking turns to attack me. Do you even want me to live?"
"What are you afraid of?" Lu Zhi tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, his mental energy transforming into dense, fine threads that sealed off the entire room and even the space, ensuring that no one could eavesdrop on their conversation.
"Three questions, then I'll leave." Lu Zhi tapped the table and said coldly, "First, the relationship between the plundering new generation and Base One; second, who controls the alien's mental power; and third, why did you deliberately let us capture you?"
"These three questions are all very simple, aren't they?" Lu Zhi sneered. "If you don't want my mental power to forcibly attack your mind, just tell the truth."
Xuan Linwen was already drenched in sweat. His first question was simple, but from the second question onwards, it exceeded his expectations.
"I'll give you one minute to prepare." Lu Zhi casually crossed his legs, leaned back, and the chair creaked.
A minute passed quickly.
Xuan Linwen lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye. After a few seconds, he slowly spoke, "The leader of the plundering is Wei Lesheng, Guan Qi's uncle from Base One. During a mission to capture alien species by the New Generation Faction, Wei Lesheng's team clashed with the New Generation Faction's team. During the fight, a high-level species appeared, causing the entire building to collapse, and they were trapped in the basement. It was there that they discovered the first crystal core inside the high-level species. Because of this crystal core, the plundering and the New Generation Faction reached a cooperation agreement."
Lu Zhi asked, "Guan Qi is the leader of Base One, right? Does he know about the New Generation faction?"
Xuan Linwen said, "Guan Qi does not agree with controlling the alien species and directly refused to cooperate with the New Generation faction. However, his uncle Wei Lesheng is not a good person either. He spent his youth abroad and is very Western-worshipping. Since the New Generation faction's supporters are Americans, he is determined to follow them. Even if Guan Qi refused, it was useless. He simply set up an organization, which led to plunder. They were responsible for capturing alien species everywhere for the New Generation faction and providing experimental materials."
"Guan Qi later discovered this, but the new generation set a trap, luring Guan Qi to a place they had arranged in advance, and then using their powerful mental strength to control him."
"So Guan Qi isn't in charge of Base One now? Then who is Leng Tianrui?"
