Xia Chujian first talked about the tentacle seaweed ball monster with a black goat's head. "...That thing looks quite like a relic species, but it's not just one relic species. It's like many relic species gathered together and wrapped up in a ball. It's very disgusting. But what's even more disgusting is that there is a black goat's head in the middle of this tentacle seaweed ball!"
Huo Yushen's eyebrows twitched slightly: "...Is it Bunis?"
Xia Chujian opened her eyes wide. "Inspector Huo really knows about this thing! Chief Quan said the same thing! He said that Bunis is known as the Mother of Fertility and has the ability to repair and reproduce infinitely..."
"Besides, this thing is truly capable of repairing and reproducing! I saw it repair its own eye, which was damaged by a submachine gun, and then split into two, two into four, and four into eight!"
Huo Yushen's brows gradually furrowed. "...were you and Quan Yuxun the only two present at the time?"
"Um."
"Then you knocked Quan Yuxun unconscious and killed all eight Bunis by yourself? Didn't they continue to regroup and split after their death?"
"No. Anyway, none of the ones I killed continued to regroup or split. The last Bunis was a bit troublesome. It might be the mother that split in the first place, because it seemed to have evolved intelligence and played a trick on me, playing dead to lure the enemy deeper. At the time, I had no choice but to use the special bullets of Shao Siming's black silver mecha..."
Xia Chujian's voice gradually became quieter.
She huddled in bed, hugging her knees tightly, looking a little nervous. "I didn't expect that bullet to be so powerful beyond my imagination. Not only did it kill the black goat's head, but it also dissolved it and all those tentacles!"
"Not only did it dissolve this Bunis, but it also dissolved everything on the ground that came into contact with the liquid..."
"One-third of the entire underground laboratory hall was completely dissolved by it."
"I didn't know how to explain it to Quan Yuxun, so I just made up...an explanation..."
Huo Yushen was very surprised and asked with interest: "...You actually deceived Quan Yuxun? How did you do it?"
Xia Chujian hesitated for a while, then lowered his head and said, "I just made up an excuse. I said something fell from the dome of the laboratory and chased those Bunis to eat. In the end, the Bunis fought back and ate the thing. However, after eating it, the Bunis dissolved. Then, it also dissolved many things on the ground..."
"Chief Quan then asked me what it looked like. In my panic, I said it was long and round at one end and pointed at the other, and golden in color."
"Chief Quan said that it was Jia Guo..."
When Huo Yushen heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
He said coldly, "It's long and golden, with one end rounded and the other pointed. I'm afraid you mixed the shape of a sniper bullet with the color of your favorite fruit. You're really good at making things up..."
Xia Chujian was surprised: "...Inspector Huo is really observant! He can even guess this!"
Huo Yushen didn't bother to pay attention to her and said, "Jia Guo, it happens to be a golden eggplant, so you just happened to say it's long and golden in color. It would be a miracle if Quan Yuxun didn't believe it."
Xia Chujian was dumbfounded: "Ah? What a coincidence?! Eggplants are indeed long and narrow, but the long and narrow ones I'm talking about are not as big as eggplants!"
At most, it is the size of the Destroyer No. 1 sniper bullet.
"You didn't specify the size, so who would have guessed you were talking about the shape of a sniper bullet?"
"...But Inspector Huo, how could you have thought of that?" Xia Chujian looked at Huo Yushen with a little admiration.
Huo Yushen was speechless for a moment and ignored the question directly, saying: "Since Quan Yuxun believed it, it's a good thing. Jiaguo was eaten by Bunis and then dissolved, which is reasonable. You are lucky, so you should..."
Before he could finish his words, Xia Chujian said timidly, "But Chief Quan said there were two Jiaguos... How would I know?! If you know, I just made up a story about two of them falling down and getting eaten by that disgusting black goat head!"
Huo Yushen closed his eyes: "...Two? He actually knew it was two?"
Xia Chujian then tentatively asked, "So, Inspector Huo, you also know what this Jia Guo is? Where did it come from?"
Huo Yushen looked at her coldly and said, "Didn't Quan Yuxun tell you?"
Xia Chujian shook his head in frustration and muttered, "Chief Quan only said this thing is high in energy and isn't produced here. He didn't say where it's produced, nor did he say how he found out... I even asked him if he had the core. If this fruit is so good, why not grow one yourself... Why bother searching all over the world for it?"
Huo Yushen: "..."
This is one solution.
But ideals are beautiful and reality is cruel.
Huo Yushen only thought for a minute before deciding to tell Xia Chujian the whole truth.
If nothing else, she was already his official employee, and she was deeply involved in this matter.
Quan Yuxun even knew Jiaguo's name, which told her that the extent of her involvement far exceeded that of an ordinary Special Security Bureau employee, and that she was on the same level as Quan Yuxun.
Therefore, she has the right to know the truth.
