Chapter 132 Doubt
The next morning, Pu Zhi had just finished breakfast and was thinking of an excuse to slip out when the base commander personally invited her to have a chat.
There was no choice, Pu Zhi went to the base commander first.
The person who came to pick him up was none other than his daughter Qin Miao. She was in her early twenties, with fair skin, a smooth oval face and regular facial features. She was a standard beauty.
She wore a blue woven Chanel-style suit and long black wavy hair, which was simple yet elegant.
She took the initiative to step forward, first nodded and greeted Wen Qianxue, then with a standard smile on her face, she extended her hand to Pu Zhi: "Hello, Miss Pu, I am Qin Miao, on behalf of Base No. 1, I welcome you."
Although her smile was very professional, her pair of round almond-shaped eyes were so bright that people subconsciously ignored the flaw in her smile.
Pu Zhi extended her hand back and shook it: "Hello, Miss Qin, the base commander is looking for me...?"
Qin Miao heard the doubt in her words and explained with a smile: "You are a distinguished guest from Base No. 3. As the host, we should naturally receive you well."
After saying that, she looked at Wen Qianxue again: "Miss Wen, why don't you come together? This is a family dinner, Pei Yu and the others are all here."
…
In the stretched nanny car, the three of them chatted briefly, and Pu Zhi learned that Qin Miao was also a person with superpowers, and his superpower was absolute hit rate.
And he and Pei Qian are in the same superpower team, no wonder he looks quite familiar with Wen Qianxue.
Just as they were about to reach their destination, Qin Miao casually said, "Ms. Pu Zhi's ability is perspective, right? Someone broke into a military stronghold yesterday. Father has been troubled by this matter for a long time. I wonder if Miss Pu's ability has found anyone suspicious?"
Pu Zhi raised her eyes and looked at her, her eyes full of calmness: "Oh? Is it far from where I live? My ability can see within a range of 5,000 meters. If it's closer, maybe I can see it."
Qin Miao propped up his chin and said with a rather regretful tone: "The distance is a bit far. It seems that father will have to look for it again."
Pu Zhi appeared calm on the surface, but was actually very panicked inside. Qin Miao's words were both a test and a reminder. No matter what her intention was, she had to be careful next time.
The car drove into the most famous Forbidden City in Luofeng City. After three inspections, the vehicle stopped at a place called the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Before the end of the world, the Forbidden City was a cultural relic and was extremely well protected. After the end of the world, it was put to use and most of its interior remained the same as it was.
There was just a long set of seats in the middle, and self-service pre-dinner fruit drinks on both sides.
The three of them walked in together and immediately attracted the attention of everyone inside. Pei Yu was the first to come over and said, "Sister Pu Zhi, you are from Base No. 3 and you didn't even tell me. Come on, my old man said yesterday that he wanted to meet you."
As he said this, he led Pu Zhi towards the old man, and soon they saw a sixty-year-old white-haired old man with a cane in the crowd. He was wearing a Zhongshan suit and his back was slightly bent, but he couldn't hide his solemn aura.
When the old man saw Pu Zhi, he first looked her up and down quickly, then nodded. He was quite satisfied with her figure and posture. Unlike his grandson, who was sloppy all day long and couldn't even stand straight.
"Hello, Miss Pu. I'm Pei Yu's grandfather. You can call me Grandpa Pei like they do."
Pu Zhi followed suit and called out Grandpa Pei, briefly introducing himself and Xiao Ren.
Grandpa Pei looked at Xiao Ren who was standing obediently beside his owner with admiration in his eyes. Both the owner and the dog were very good, but he didn't know who was better compared to his eldest grandson.
"Your base commander said you would come, but we didn't know when you would come. We told the soldiers but they forgot. Sorry." After saying that, before Pu Zhi could reply, he whispered, "Do you still have the goods from yesterday?"
The topic changed so quickly that Pu Zhi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "This... is out of stock for the time being. I will definitely send it to you as soon as I get it next time."
Mr. Pei nodded with satisfaction: "I'll give you a high price, I can afford any amount."
Then Mr. Pei personally took Pu Zhi to meet the people present one by one, including Deputy Base Chief Zheng Guan, Wu Dao's son Wu Jie, Pei Yu's father Pei Wenshi, and their wives and children.
The most influential and future generations of the three major families are all here. Except for Pei Qian who couldn't come back due to some matters, Mr. Pei is the oldest and the elder, so everyone has to be polite to him.
Even though everyone in Base No. 1 looked down on outsiders, they had to speak nicely to Pu Zhi who was beside Grandpa Pei.
After a round of greetings, the base commander finally arrived and we could finally start eating.
Everyone sat down, and Pu Zhi was arranged to sit closest to the door.
But she didn't care and waved to the waiter next to her, "Bring another plate."
The waiter thought Pu Zhi didn't like this set of tableware, so he replaced it with a different one.
Madam Zheng Guan frowned in disdain. What they used were antiques that were hundreds of years old, which at that time were only available to the emperor and the concubines in the harem. Yet this girl looked down on them. It was really true that this outsider had no taste.
Pu Zhi ignored the strange looks from others and waited until the dishes were almost served before directly picking up half a plate of meat.
As everyone looked at him as a country bumpkin, Pu Zhi placed the plate in front of Xiao Ren and said, "Eat it and see if the chef's cooking is better or mine is better."
Everyone suddenly realized that Xiao Ren was a level five mutant animal, and they actually forgot to prepare food for it.
The base commander gave a look and someone immediately went to prepare.
Qin Xiu then said with a smile: "Hahaha, Miss Pu and Xiao Ren have a very good relationship. It's a good thing that talents like you join the base. I wonder how long you plan to stay?"
"It shouldn't take more than a year." Pu Zhi replied politely.
Qin Xiu smiled kindly twice and asked everyone to eat and not to be restrained.
After eating a few bites, Deputy Base Commander Zheng Guan suddenly said, "Miss Pu, could you help me? A thief broke into a key military location yesterday, but we couldn't find him."
Pu Zhi swallowed the food in his mouth slowly and said calmly: "I am naturally happy to help, but since it is a military stronghold, how could we let that person sneak in.
If it was just an ordinary person, you should have found it long ago, but I'm afraid it's a person with super powers.
Didn't Base No. 3 trade a batch of items that can block supernatural powers with you before? Why didn't you use them in such an important place as a military stronghold?"
Everyone present knew what Pu Zhi was talking about. The younger generation all looked at Zheng Guan. Yes, how could anyone slip in with that thing?
If it were ordinary people, they would not be able to find it, with so many instruments...
Being watched by so many people, Zheng Guan blushed. Doesn't this clearly show that he has poor management? "Haha, it was used, but I don't know how the thief sneaked in. Miss Pu just arrived at the base yesterday, right..."
When he said this, his eyes were full of scrutiny, and his intention was self-evident.
