Chapter 191 You Are Not Suitable to Know
Another soldier spoke up to ease the tension: "Captain, it's a little inappropriate for you to ask a girl this question."
Then the soldier grinned and asked a new question: "My beautiful lady, how did you make the star beast understand you?"
Qu Tong did not remain silent this time, and said calmly: "High-level star beasts are naturally intelligent. It depends on whether it is willing to listen. Or to put it another way, if you defeat it, it will understand."
Everyone sighed, it was such a simple and crude truth.
Qu Tong stopped chatting with Cheng Feng and the others. He walked casually to Si Yuting and greeted him in a familiar manner: "Admiral, nice to see you again."
Si Yuting did not respond to Qu Tong's greeting, but asked directly: "Ms. Junli, did you take the B2493 engine spaceship seven months ago?"
Qu Tong was stunned for a second, then smiled and said, "No."
Si Yuting pursed his lips and his sharp gaze fell on Qu Tong's smiling face.
The atmosphere was frozen for a moment. Except for Cheng Feng, no one knew what the two were talking about.
Rong Chengjue's eyes wandered between the two of them, and he asked, "Where's my sister?"
Qu Tong clapped his arms and said, "I almost forgot that our beautiful Yue Qing is still up there."
Qu Tong went back to the big tree and put his hands on it. After a while, Rong Yueqing was slowly let down by the vines.
As soon as they reached the ground, Rong Yueqing bowed to Qu Tong in a soft voice: "Thank you Miss Junli for saving my life."
Qu Tong raised his eyebrows and jokingly asked, "What else?"
Rong Yueqing was stunned for a moment, thinking of the second half of the sentence, her face blushed, and she hesitated: "From now on, Miss Junli...if you need anything, just tell me, I, I will definitely help you."
Seeing that Rong Yueqing blushed so easily, Qu Tong stopped teasing her and said, "Okay, I'll tell you later."
Si Yuting had already arranged for people to collect the bodies of the unlucky guys. Even those that were broken into several pieces were packed into bags.
Qu Tong heard some whispers talking, feeling sorry for her for letting the ninth-level star beast go. Looking in the direction of the voices, she found that they were the people Si Yuting had just brought with him.
Judging from their clothes, they are obviously not from the military. They should be from the exploration team here. They are well equipped, so their family conditions should be good.
One of them noticed Qu Tong's gaze and immediately asked his companions to keep quiet.
A few people thought of Qu Tong's terrifying strength just now and gave him a somewhat flattering smile.
Qu Tong reacted calmly and withdrew his gaze.
A few people didn't think it was a big deal to be treated so coldly. After all, they were capable and had the capital to be proud. Even if there was something wrong, they dared not show it.
Rong Yueqing asked Qu Tong about his next plans and warmly invited Qu Tong to go back with them.
Qu Tong looked at Rong Chengjue who was silent beside him. Although Rong Chengjue had a strange temper, he thought Miss Yue Qing was very nice, so he nodded.
Si Yuting interrupted with a cold and serious voice: "Please trouble Miss Junli and the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Princess to go back with us later."
Rong Chengjue's face darkened: "Their deaths have nothing to do with us."
"I know, but their families need an explanation."
Si Yuting just glanced at him indifferently, retrieved a screenshot of the Star Network statement from the light brain and threw it into the air. The content was that several well-known families jointly requested the army to send people to find their children.
It goes without saying that among the dead are people from these aristocratic families.
"Excuse me, three of you. After we finish taking your statements, someone will take you back."
Si Yuting's words meant there was no room for negotiation.
Qu Tong looked at Si Yuting deeply, not knowing what to feel for a moment.
It's like this again, I'm speechless...
Although Rong Chengjue was unwilling, he was persuaded by the good-tempered Rong Yueqing.
Si Yuting and his team still had a team that they hadn't found, so they couldn't immediately set off back to the capital planet.
Si Yuting gave them two choices:
1. Go back to the Zhongwei spaceship with the team just now and wait.
Second, go with them to look for people.
Qu Tong chose the second one. Rong Chengjue looked at his sister's tired expression and had no choice but to choose the first one.
After Qu Tong sent a message to Brother Liang and the others, asking them to go back after collecting enough Moonlight Grass, he followed Si Yuting and the others to continue exploring the inner area.
Si Yuting conducted a human search within a ten-mile radius of the last location where the distress signal was sent.
Humans are different from star beasts. The energy fluctuations of star beasts are very large, so they are easy to be discovered, but humans are not so easy to be found.
What's more, deep in this dense jungle, the signal is unstable in some places.
Fortunately, there were professionals in this area in Si Yuting’s team, and it took more than two hours to find the last team.
The last team also encountered a high-level star beast, and half of their members were killed. When they were found, they were all wilted.
With Si Yuting and his elite team around, Qu Tong didn't have to take action when encountering star beasts along the way. Qu Tong could even occasionally pick a few energy plants.
On the way back, Qu Tong walked at the back, looking around out of boredom. Seeing the expressionless man next to him, he felt depressed:
"Admiral, why is it that nothing good ever happens to me?"
If she met Si Yuting twice more with this identity, her file in the police station would probably be comparable to the medals of honor Si Yuting had received over the years.
Si Yuting stood straight, walked steadily, and did not answer Qu Tong's words.
Qu Tong curled her lips when she saw Si Yuting ignoring her again.
After thinking about his current identity again, his eyes turned and he said with a smile:
"Admiral, your wife and I are good friends. Do you have any special treatment?"
Seeing that Si Yuting did have some reaction, he continued, "For example, pick a handsome boy to interrogate me? Or prepare a luxurious single room for me?"
Si Yuting glanced at Qu Tong, frowned, and corrected him: "It's just a record, not an interrogation."
"There are special people to question you when you take your statement. Miss Junli, just follow the procedure. It will only take a few minutes. The situation like last time won't happen again."
Si Yuting adopted a businesslike attitude and gave Qu Tong an answer.
Cheng Feng, who was in front, heard this conversation and looked back curiously. Seeing Qu Tong looking back at him, he gave Qu Tong an evil smile.
Qu Tong is inexplicably strange.
Along the way, Qu Tong discovered that Si Yuting was somewhat interested in her identity as his legitimate wife, so she mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally.
Finally, Si Yuting looked at Qu Tong impatiently and said in a deep voice, "Miss Junli is very concerned about my wife's affairs?"
Qu Tong nodded without any guilt, and used Wen You's words: "She is my friend, so of course I have to care about her."
Si Yuting's eyes darkened slightly: "Since you are friends, my wife didn't tell you, which proves that you are not suitable to know."
Qu Tong: “…”
It sounded as if there was something between them.
He also tried to sow discord between the two of them.
