Chapter 382: The Spacer's Identity Revealed
Surrounded by a group of armed soldiers, the thugs stopped what they were doing and stood still.
Lv Lanshan, who was hiding behind the soldiers, took two steps forward and shouted, "Everyone from the Lingxu Gang, retreat behind the snow wall. Everyone else, throw away your weapons, cover your heads and squat down!"
Li Yu'e was a little confused. Lingxu Gang had been attacked many times and no soldiers came to help. Why did they bring so many soldiers this time? Seeing that everyone under her was staring at her and waiting for her instructions, Li Yu'e withdrew her thoughts and gestured to them to retreat.
When the people from Lingxu Gang saw their boss's order, they slowly retreated behind the snow wall.
Maodan also ran back to Xia Xiaoman. Xia Xiaoman checked the wounds on its body. There were two cuts on its back, both of which were superficial injuries. They looked scary, but not serious.
Xia Xiaoman took out red worm powder and sprinkled it on Maodan's wound. The bleeding stopped after a while and there was a tendency for a scab to form.
On the other side, after Lu Lanshan ordered his subordinates to arrest the thugs, he took two people to Li Yu'e and said that he had something to discuss. Then Li Yu'e took them to her home.
About half an hour later, Li Yu'e personally escorted Lv Lanshan and the others out. Before leaving, Lv Lanshan deliberately raised his voice and thanked Li Yu'e for her cooperation. Then he took everyone away from Lingxu Gang.
After everyone had gone away, Xiao Zheyu walked up to Li Yu'e and asked in a low voice, "Sister Yu'e, who is that guy surnamed Lu? What did he mean by cooperation just now?"
"It's not convenient to talk here, let's go back and talk." Li Yu'e led everyone back.
After returning home, she walked around the house and made sure that there was no one else. Then Li Yu'e said, "The one with the surname Lu is the new secretary of Mayor Yu. His real name is Lu Lanshan."
"What he meant by cooperation is that we should pretend to have a space jade pendant and have handed it over to them. In this way, they can spread the news that our Lingxu Gang's space has been taken away by the authorities. Once those who are targeting space users know about this, they will voluntarily give up attacking our Lingxu Gang."
Zhou Qiuyang was puzzled when he heard this, "Why would Lu Lanshan help us?"
Li Yu'e looked at Xia Xiaoman and said, "I need to ask your sister Xiaoman, how did you convince Lu Lanshan to help us?"
Xia Xiaoman was stunned. "Sister Yu'e, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"
Li Yu'e rolled her eyes. "Still pretending. Lu Lanshan has already told me. He said that you went to the official headquarters to find him. He came to help us because of you."
Xia Xiaoman frowned, "Tsk, this Lu Lanshan can't hide anything at all!"
When Li Yu'e heard this, a triumphant smile appeared on her face. "You're exposed! Tell me how you convinced Lu Lanshan."
Seeing this, Xia Xiaoman reacted, "Sister Yu'e, you cheated me!"
Li Yu'e smiled and said, "If I don't trick you, how can I know who helped our Lingxu so much?"
"Sister Yu'e, how did you know that?" Xia Xiaoman asked curiously.
"This is not a simple matter. We have encountered such large-scale attacks several times before. At most, there were only a few security guards to help, and there would not be such a professional army. This time, you came and the army came. No matter how I look at it, I feel that there is something fishy going on."
Li Yu'e continued, "Also, I asked you to leave before, but you refused to leave. You even looked confident. I guess you knew the army would come a long time ago, right?"
Xia Xiaoman smiled awkwardly, "Sister Yu'e, you observe too carefully!"
Before coming to Lingxu Gang, she went to the official headquarters to find Lu Lanshan.
The problems facing Lingxu Gang could not be solved by a fight. If there was no permanent solution, even if she helped Lingxu Gang through the difficulties this time, there would be a next time, and she could not help Lingxu Gang endlessly.
So Xia Xiaoman thought of Lu Lanshan.
During the fifteen days they spent together in the underground city, she could see that Lu Lanshan was not an unreasonable person. As long as she could convince Lu Lanshan to help the Lingxu Gang deal with the thugs, all problems could be solved.
Originally, Xia Xiaoman wanted Lu Lanshan to use the Lingxu Gang as bait to lure the thugs from Fucheng over, and then Lu Lanshan would capture them. This would be much more convenient than the security team running around to hunt down the thugs.
As long as Lu Lanshan arrests more thugs in this way, Fucheng will be able to return to its previous peace.
But as soon as she proposed this idea, Lu Lanshan rejected it.
At that time, Xia Xiaoman hadn't figured out why Lu Lanshan refused, and thought that he didn't have enough chips. Later, after Li Yu'e reminded him, he realized that the authorities wanted to reduce the population of Fucheng in this way, so it was impossible to arrest thugs on such a large scale.
"Then why did Lu Lanshan bring people to help us?" Xiao Zheyu asked.
Xia Xiaoman smiled and said, "Because I told them that if they are willing to help, I can provide information about the spacers for free?"
"Do you have any information about the space user? Who is it?" Li Yu'e asked.
Xia Xiaoman shook her head. "I have signed a confidentiality agreement with the authorities. I cannot tell you the specific information."
How can she talk about something that doesn't exist at all?
When Lu Lanshan rejected her proposal, she thought her negotiation had failed and planned to leave and find another way. At this moment, Lu Lanshan spoke up to stop her and directly exposed her secret that she was a spacer.
At that moment, Xia Xiaoman wanted to kill Lu Lanshan.
But what Lu Lanshan said next made Xia Xiaoman change her mind.
During the more than ten days in the underground city, Lu Lanshan did not find any clues. He thought that Xia Xiaoman was just a clever girl who raised a snow wolf by accident.
The only time Xia Xiaoman revealed a flaw was when Maodan was captured and the gun was taken out.
"When we left the dungeon, I noticed that your pockets were deflated. Your pockets were squeezed once when you were riding the snowmobile, and judging from the indentation, it's impossible for a pistol to be in your pocket."
Lu Lanshan looked into Xia Xiaoman's eyes and said, "At that time, I felt something was wrong. It was just that it happened so suddenly that I didn't think about it for a while. By the time I realized what was happening, you had already driven away."
"Since you suspect that I am a spacer, why haven't you arrested me yet?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
"Because you hid so well and hardly used space energy when you were outside. We secretly observed you several times and found nothing abnormal. I once suspected that I had seen it wrong."
Lu Lanshan paused and continued, "But some time ago, we were able to basically determine that you were a spacer."
"You threw a few Molotov cocktails a few days ago. One of them didn't ignite, but the tissue paper blocking the mouth of the bottle was still there. This tissue paper was too new. It didn't look like a yellowed tissue paper from being exposed to natural disasters a few years ago."
"Anyone who can possess this kind of tissue must have a space in his hand that is isolated from the outside world. Do you think I am right, Xia Xiaoman?"
