The sudden disappearance of the wife of the leader of the superpowered group has caused a huge uproar at the Xuanwu Base!
Driven by the high bounty, the Xuanwu base was practically dug up from head to toe, with everyone actively searching in an attempt to make a fortune!
Hundreds of people stake out Fang Qingdai's house every day, openly and secretly trying to find out what she's up to!
It was expected that Fang Qingdai would be suspected.
After all, she was the only space-type ability user in the base, and her level was high enough that she should be able to take in living creatures.
However, she had only been in the public eye for a short time at the Xuanwu base, so people knew very little about her. In addition, everyone knew that she had a good relationship with Xiao Mao. Although people had suspicions, they did not dare to search her because they did not have any substantial evidence!
But Fang Qingdai had no way to get the person out of the base!
After the healing ability user went missing, the base was placed under martial law, and entry and exit from the city gates required checks and payment.
But that was all bark and no bite; the actual inspection wasn't that strict. For example, Fang Qingdai's space hadn't been inspected yet.
This time it's different. Commander Li's wife went missing, and the base issued an order to temporarily seal off the city to prevent anyone from smuggling her out.
Fang Qingdai knew that the Xuanwu No. 4 base would be hit by a beast tide in a week, and the base could not be sealed off for long. At that time, it would definitely be necessary to open the gates and send the ability users to provide support.
On the day Mao Ling and Xiao Mao were confirmed to be sending people away, she volunteered to support the operation at Xuanwu No. 4 base, and it was only natural that she would leave with the main force at that time.
She wasn't in a hurry, and Xiao Mao and Mao Ling, the two insiders, kept calm. They went crazy and put on an act, forcing Li Weidong to find a way to locate the person every day.
I heard that Mao Ling even took the opportunity to go crazy, slapped Li Weidong, and scolded him for not being able to protect his wife!
Li Weidong was frustrated and angry, but his suspicions about Mao Ling and Xiao Mao actually lessened a little.
It wasn't until the third day after Mao Min's disappearance that Li Weidong finally couldn't hold back any longer and led his men to her door!
Fang Qingdai was mentally prepared, so she didn't panic much.
She immediately notified her team members and asked them to come over.
It wasn't that she needed someone to back her up; her main goal was to bring over Xuan Liu and Xuan Ba, the two people who could represent the base leader, so that Li Weidong wouldn't dare to act too recklessly, and someone could also help Fang Qingdai prove her innocence!
"Commander Li, what brings you here?"
Fang Qingdai leaned against the doorway, arms crossed, looking at Li Weidong, whose face was dark.
Before Li Weidong could speak, Lu Rui jumped out from beside him!
"Qingdai, we suspect that the disappearance of Commander Li's wife is related to you. Please cooperate with the investigation!"
It had been a long time since I'd seen Lu Rui. He had recovered from his injuries, but he hadn't improved at all. He was still the same aggressive and impatient person he always was.
Fang Qingdai rolled her eyes: "What? We've heard a lot about people going missing at the base before, but none of them traced it back to me. I'm so close to Xiao Mao, even a fool would know I wouldn't do anything to Aunt Mao. There's no reason for them to investigate me."
"Or is it that everyone actually knows the whereabouts of the people who went missing from the base before? That's why there wasn't a large-scale search?"
Fang Qingdai's two indifferent words made a vein throb on Li Weidong's forehead!
He stared at Fang Qingdai with a gloomy expression, and after a long while, he curled the corners of his mouth: "There were no space-type ability users in the base before, so of course there was no need to worry about people hiding in space."
In the short time that followed, the team members arrived one after another, and the old base commander came with Xuan Liu and Xuan Ba!
The old base chief nodded in agreement upon hearing Li Weidong's words, saying, "Indeed, Qingdai, you are a space-type ability user, making it easier for you to hide things than others. In order to dispel everyone's suspicions, you should cooperate with the inspection."
The base chief spoke fairly, and there was no apparent bias. However, some people felt that he trusted Fang Qingdai and therefore encouraged her to prove her innocence.
Before Fang Qingdai could speak, Xiao Mao jumped out with his neck stiff.
He glared at Li Weidong with anger and disappointment, and shouted hoarsely, "How could my sister possibly harm my mother? My sister and I are like family, my mother is her mother. She would never lay a hand on her own family. My sister is not a heartless person!"
The vein on Li Weidong's forehead throbbed again. He gritted his teeth and coldly reprimanded, "Shut up! Do you even have the right to speak?"
Xiao Mao looked unconvinced and wanted to argue a few words for Fang Qingdai.
Fang Qingdai waved her hand to stop them: "Forget it, Xiao Mao, just trust me. Let them investigate if they want!"
She sighed dramatically, "Well, what can I do? I'm the only one with a spatial ability. Geniuses are always the ones who get into trouble!"
His words made everyone's lips twitch.
Fang Qingdai straightened her expression and looked at Li Weidong: "How do you plan to investigate? Send someone into my space?"
Upon hearing this, Li Weidong hesitated for a moment. Seeing his expression, Lu Rui immediately jumped in and said, "What if you've set a trap in the space?"
Fang Qingdai laughed angrily: "With so many people watching, if anything happens to your people after they go in, how can I escape responsibility?"
Even so, entering a space where one's own people are not present still makes one very uneasy.
If Fang Qingdai goes mad and actually uses the space to kill someone, even if someone seeks revenge afterward, it will be useless!
They're already dead!
Everyone thought that way, which is why none of the people Li Weidong brought stepped forward!
Fang Qingdai looked at Li Weidong as if he were a joke: "Are you going to investigate or not? I've already agreed to the investigation, and you're still hesitating. Are you trying to prevent me from proving my innocence and are you planning to just pin a crime on me?"
Li Weidong's expression turned even colder. He looked at Lu Rui and said coldly, "Go!"
“I…” Lu Rui hesitated even more. He took two steps back, his eyes pleading, “Commander, I have an old grudge against her!”
He feared that Fang Qingdai would abandon him and send him to his death!
Fang Qingdai sneered: "When I was getting my superpower certification, didn't Uncle Lu keep saying that he had a past relationship with my parents and would take good care of me, his niece? How come now it's a grudge?"
Lu Rui was speechless after being rebuked.
Seeing this, Li Weidong coldly rebuked, "Enough!"
"Lu Rui, you go. I'll stay here and watch. If she dares to do anything to you, I'll make sure she pays with her life!"
Fang Qingdai's face darkened after the threatening words: "Commander Li, you have quite the airs!"
Finally, the old base commander stepped forward: "Alright, alright, we're all from the same base, there's no need to be so confrontational!"
"How about this, I'll send someone in with Lu Rui to inspect the area, is that alright?"
Fang Qingdai couldn't possibly have taken care of the base chief's men as well!
With the base commander acting as an intermediary, both sides compromised and agreed to this method.
The base commander turned around and said, "Xuan Yi, you go in with Lu Rui."
Xuan Yi nodded with a cold and stern expression and strode forward.
Lu Rui had no choice but to reluctantly step forward.
Fang Qingdai curled her lips, put her hand on the two of them, and sent them into the space together.
