Chapter 98 The Villain Was Actually Me
"You should know about the Zero Hour Squad, right?" Xuan Linwen remembered that he and his team had clashed with Zhong Ling's Zero Hour Squad.
Lu Zhi snorted coldly. Of course he remembered that if Sui Cheng hadn't stopped him, he would have killed that kid named Zhong Qi long ago.
Xuan Linwen continued, "Their team leader, Zhong Ling, is no good person. She sent her own younger brother to the New Generation Lab."
"You mean that kid Zhong Qi?" Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes and sneered, "When I run into that kid again, I'll kill him."
“This must be an easy thing for you.” Xuan Linwen naturally knew his strength. He continued, “That kid is the most successful experiment of the new generation. You’ve met him, but you didn’t sense any alien aura in his body, did you?”
"Inside the body?" Lu Zhi immediately grasped the key point.
“That’s right. He’s different from us who devour alien species. There’s an alien species living inside him, and they get along very well. Whenever needed, the alien species will use his body to appear.”
Lu Zhi was stunned, not because he was frightened by his words, but because this situation was very similar to his own.
The alien species lives peacefully in the human body, but will use the body to attack when necessary.
At first, Lu Zhi also parasitized a human body, but his ability was to devour it. Moreover, the body was ownerless, and over time, he could completely assimilate it and make it a part of himself.
The only difference is that the owner of his body is dead, while Zhong Qi is alive and sharing a body with the alien species.
"Who came up with this idea?" Lu Zhi asked curiously.
Xuan Linwen gave him a meaningful look, leaving Lu Zhi somewhat puzzled.
He frowned and said, "You don't know who it is, do you? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Well, why don't you take a guess?" Xuan Linwen couldn't help but joke with him.
"Heh." The vines on Lu Zhi's wrist twitched, carrying a hint of threat. "Am I asking you a question, or are you asking me one?"
Xuan Lin sighed and said, "I know the law enforcer."
The law he refers to is not the law in front of him, but the original master of the body.
Lu Zhi frowned. Back in the lab, Xuan Linwen had mentioned that he knew Lu Zhi.
“Law Master is also a member of the new generation.”
Lu Zhi fell into a deep silence, realizing that after all this, the villain was actually himself.
"Come on, tell me in detail." Lu Zhi tapped the table, took a deep breath. He had originally wanted to go back to accompany Sui Cheng as soon as possible, but now it seemed that he would not be able to go back for a while.
Although he inherited most of the body's memories, some were completely blurry.
I didn't think about it carefully at first, but now it seems like these memories were deliberately erased.
“Lü Zhi holds a high position within the New Generation faction. His father was a member of the New Generation organization, although he is now dead, and his half-brother Cecil has taken over. His mother is American. I don’t know much about the Lü family’s affairs; I only know this from other people.”
“I have never had direct contact with Lu Zhi because he is not from the lab, but I have heard a lot about him because of his position.”
"Wait a minute, I want to ask you something." Lu Zhi raised his hand to interrupt him, and asked with an unusually serious expression, "Does he have any boyfriends, girlfriends, or lovers?"
Although he didn't recognize such a character in the memories he absorbed, he still wanted to confirm it just in case. If he didn't find out, and some girlfriend, fiancée, or wife suddenly appeared, his attendant might kill him.
Killing him is a minor matter; the real problem is that his entourage might not want to stay with him.
What if I said yes?
The lawyer's expression cracked.
Xuan Linwen found his expression quite amusing, and felt a sense of satisfaction at having gotten revenge.
"Cough, okay, actually I was lying to you." Xuan Linwen finally confessed. Under Lu Zhi's murderous gaze, he said calmly, "This kid is also gay. He's usually very chaste. Those new generation guys don't even look at him. He's never touched one of them."
"That's good." Lu Zhi breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
"About half a year ago, Lu Zhi received a special mission," Xuan Linwen said seriously. "The mission location was Xinghai City, and the reason he was sent there was because he had lived in Xinghai City for a period of time."
These memory rules do exist.
Lu Zhi was not originally from Xinghai City; he was sent here a month before the apocalypse.
Speaking of which, his workplace and his passenger car were in the same building.
Xuan Linwen paused for a moment, as if he had figured something out, and tentatively asked, "That mutant in Xinghai City must be you, right?"
"Hmm, so what?" Lu Zhi sneered. "They've been hunting for half a month and haven't even caught a glimpse of me. They're all useless."
"At that time, the new generation had captured quite a few high-level species, but the crystal cores they obtained were of varying quality. They believed that only the crystal core energy inside stronger alien species was the purest, so they tried every means to search for high-level species everywhere. Lu Zhi was the leader of the team, but after entering Xinghai City, he completely lost contact with the organization, and everyone assumed that he had died inside."
Lu Zhi nodded: "He is indeed dead, but I didn't do it."
He thought for a moment, trying to recall what had happened.
"Oh, right, it was internal strife within the team. Lü Zhi died at the hands of his own people."
“I’m afraid it’s not just that.” Xuan Linwen shook his head and said, “Sehir has never liked Lu Zhi very much. He is full of hostility towards this younger brother. If you ask who wants to kill Lu Zhi the most, it has to be him.”
Lu Zhi said casually, "So you deliberately sent him to Xinghai City to carry out a mission, and then took the opportunity to kill him. Hmph, but you didn't expect to benefit me."
At the time, the lawyer was worried about not finding a good-looking person, but unexpectedly, he offered himself up the very next day.
Getting back to the main point, Lu Zhi asked him, "What is the relationship between Zhong Ling and the new generation?"
“Actually, this matter is not complicated. Let me put it simply,” Xuan Linwen said. “Zhong Ling is Cecil’s lover, and Leng Tianrui is Zhong Ling’s suitor. For Zhong Ling, he betrayed Guan Qi and Base One. Cecil was also in charge of Zhong Qi’s experiment.”
"Where is Leng Tianrui now?"
"He was taken away by Cecil. Cecil is going to send him to the lab for research."
Lu Zhizhen never expected it would be because of a love triangle. Are humans really that boring?
“Zhong Ling is also a psychic ability user, but she is somewhat different from other ability users.”
What kind of difference is there between what the law-abiding, curious, and declarative pronouncements say?
Xuan Linwen pointed to his own eyes and said, "Have you seen her eyes?"
Lu Zhi shook his head. The first time he met Zhong Ling, her eyes were covered.
Xuan Linwen said seriously, "Other psychic ability users control themselves by emitting psychic energy, but she is different. Her ability is attached to her eyes. As long as you look directly into her eyes, you will be controlled by her."
"So is it possible that Cecil and Leng Tianrui are both people she controls?"
