It was not difficult to prove the lie to Wei Qianjin.
Xia Chuhe noted down the city lord's and mercenary's contact information and used the bounty function on the Tianya Forum to find the mercenary.
This man was a low-level mercenary who did have a long-term job—to regularly forward pictures and messages to a certain contact each month. His employer provided him with whatever pictures and messages he needed, and he would receive payment for forwarding each one.
This is an easy and well-paid job.
However, his employer did not show up this month.
Xia Chuhe sneered: "He won't show up again. I'll give you six months' worth of fees. Send a message to your contact person, attach pictures, and tell her exactly what the commission you accepted is."
The mercenary hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
He contacted his employer multiple times this month, but received no response, presumably because his employer no longer needed him for long-term assignments.
Since that's the case, if we can make an extra profit at the last minute, we should definitely do it.
...
Xia Chuhe was struggling with how to tell Wei Yinuo what had happened.
She was truly afraid that Wei Yinuo, with her small frame, would be so angry that she would die after learning the truth.
Let the two sisters handle this themselves; the key lies with Wei Qianjin.
At this moment, Wei Qianjin was still recalling the video that Xia Chuhe had shown her.
The person in the video was frighteningly thin, almost unrecognizable as a living person, and bore no resemblance to the sister I remembered.
"Team Leader Bai, there's some data here that I need you to look at."
"Okay, coming right away."
Wei Qianjin glanced at the program progress on the screen; the copying was complete. She unplugged the memory device, put it in her pocket, and casually went to help her subordinate review the data.
...
The images and stories of the mercenaries completely shattered Wei Qianjin's resolve.
In her anxiety, she finally met Xia Chuhe for the second time.
Wei Qianjin made two requests of Xia Chuhe: "Tell me the truth, and then help me see my sister."
In return for the deposit, Wei Qianjin provided the coordinates of several hidden upper-level Blue factories, nutrient factories, and gene drug factories.
Once both requests are fulfilled, she will give Xia Chuhe a memory card containing advanced technology. Having spent seven years in the laboratory, Wei Qianjin may not have access to all advanced technology, but she certainly has access to about 40-50%.
Xia Chuhe, who originally only intended to tell Wei Qianjin the truth and not to get involved in the sisters' affairs any further, said: "...Deal."
The technology at the top level is too tempting.
Xia Chuhe, too lazy to consider Wei Qianjin's ability to cope, blurted out everything he knew about Wei Yinuo, including the reasons why she voluntarily accepted the experiment and her experience of being locked in the machine.
As she listened, Wei Qianjin's lips completely lost their color.
She listened silently to Xia Chuhe's story, then took out a memory card and slowly said, "This is a copy of the theoretical and applied literature of advanced technology."
Xia Chuhe was surprised: "I haven't let you meet Wei Yinuo yet."
“No need, I…” Wei Qianjin’s voice was dry. “I still have some things to do. I will go see her in person after I’m done.”
It's not that I don't want to see them, it's that I'm afraid to see them.
Compared to the suffering her sister endured, Wei Qianjin's self-pity seemed like a ridiculous performance.
The thought that the machine she helped design was the root of her sister's suffering made Wei Qianjin wish she could atone with her death.
But she cannot die yet; she is more useful to her sister and the person delivering the message.
The Heavenly Saint Temple City Lord who murdered her sister is dead, but the person in charge of everything at the top is still alive. As a researcher who is very important to the upper echelons, Wei Qianjin believes that one day she will be able to personally avenge her true enemy.
...
A minor incident occurred at the end of the operation.
Xia Chuhe, not wanting to hear Dong Huimiao's curses any longer, kindly took out her skin and let her meet Wei Qianjin.
Dong Huimiao mysteriously handed Wei Qianjin something and pulled her into the Haijiao Forum to chat privately about something.
The next day, Dong Huimiao proudly showed off a portrait on her wristwatch to Xia Chuhe, saying, "Look, my original appearance was much prettier than yours, you country bumpkin."
Xia Chuhe, who was being called unfashionable for the first time in his life, touched his nose and gave a perfunctory compliment: "Handsome! Beautiful!"
To be honest, the woman in the picture is indeed more in line with popular aesthetic standards than Xia Chuhe. She only bears a five or six-point resemblance to Xia Chuhe, but her features are more delicate and her bone structure is more proportionate.
Summer hoeing belatedly realized the reason for winter's relentless pursuit of destroying seedlings.
Dong Huimiao hid a portion of her original blood and skin within her scabbard so that Wei Qianjin could use advanced technology to restore her original appearance according to her genetic sequence.
Winter Destroys Seedlings doesn't mind Summer Hoe's perfunctory attitude at all. She lovingly presses her face against her wristwatch and mutters to herself, "From now on, this face will be my trademark when I travel the world!"
“Hey, Lord Xia!” Dong Huimiao called out to her, “I’m going to change my name.”
I'll change my name to one completely unrelated to you, and use a face completely unrelated to you. From today onward, I will no longer be your substitute.
Xia Chuhe's brows relaxed: "What name should I change it to?"
"The cicada, the cicada that has shed its shell," the cicada thought, "is a cicada that has been dormant for many years, and now it sings loudly in its season."
The experience at the Temple of the Heavenly God made Dong Chan realize at least one thing: City Lord Xia was not a bad person, and it was time to investigate the real mastermind behind it all.
Xia Hoe: "Winter..."
Dongchan rolled her eyes at her: "I love this word. You're nosy."
Xia Chuhe: "..."
Putting aside the matter of the Wei sisters for the time being, Xia Chuhe originally intended to return to the city immediately and make use of the advanced technology.
Unexpectedly, Su Ye, whom she hadn't contacted in a long time, sent her a message inviting her to the Meow Meow Legion's headquarters for a chat.
Some time ago, Taotie City was completed, and Xia Chuhe allocated a piece of land to Abao to be used as the headquarters of the Meow Meow Legion.
Ah Bao was enjoying himself in Taotie City and hadn't gone home for a while. But now he was going home, apparently because something big had happened to the Meow Meow Legion.
Xia Chuhe handed the memory to Li Qiusheng, asking her to take it back and show it to Xiao Ai and the nameless people first, as scientific theories need professional talent to be put into practice.
After the cicada finished doing what it wanted to do, it stopped bothering the summer hoeing machine.
Xia Chuhe wouldn't let her leave: "If you leave, my payment will be wasted. I'll only give you the shares when I return safely."
"Xia the Skinflint!"
Dongchan, grumbling and cursing, followed Xia Chuhe to the Meow Meow Legion's headquarters.
