Chapter 133: Revealed
Pu Zhi put down the chopsticks in her hand, her voice calm but unusually powerful: "What does the deputy base commander mean? Just because this happened just after I arrived yesterday, you suspect me? That's too far-fetched.
If you insist on slandering me, you have to produce some evidence. I haven't left the house since I arrived at Miss Wen's house yesterday. If it were really me, there would be so many surveillance cameras in the base that there must be some that captured me.
After saying that, she picked up the juice next to her and took a few sips to get rid of the greasy taste in her mouth.
The base commander saw that something was not right and hurried to smooth things over: "Ms. Pu misunderstood. Zheng Guan was just concerned about you."
Pu Zhi snorted coldly and retorted without any hesitation: "You all know what this means better than anyone else. Let me ask you, Wu Dao has done as much as Shang Xi, so why did he keep his son?"
After these words were spoken, the young people at the table looked at Pu Zhi in confusion. What had General Wudao done? And who was Shang Xi?
Mr. Pei's expression remained unchanged as he silently looked at his juniors, whose expressions varied.
Especially Wu Jie, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't hide the panic and vigilance on his face.
Seeing that things were getting out of control, Zheng Guan slammed the table, successfully attracting everyone's attention. "Youngsters, please don't be too rude. We have our own decision on the matter of Base No. 1. Wu Jie knows nothing, so we naturally cannot harm the innocent."
Pu Zhi sneered twice, his voice echoing in the unusually quiet and empty hall. "Innocent? Those victims weren't innocent? Are you doing them justice by doing this? Why don't you make what Wu Dao did public? What are you afraid of?"
Wen Qianxue, who was sitting next to her, frowned tightly. What Pu Zhi said was probably very serious.
At this time, Wu Jie's wife stood up and pointed at Pu Zhi and said angrily: "Brother Jie knows nothing, but you, an outsider, are so aggressive.
I know you're fighting for the innocent. But you can't deny that our family, starting with my grandfather, has made countless contributions. My father also made great contributions to the base, but he went astray for a while and died to atone for his sins.
"The base only gave him a decent death, but you're still fussing over that? Have you considered the impact on the base if these things were leaked, and the turmoil it would cause?"
Pu Zhi looked at the woman. She was only in her twenties, young and beautiful. She was more talkative than the woman and immediately left Wu Jie and herself out.
"Oh." Pu Zhi almost retaliated with an attitude of ignoring her, not taking her words seriously at all. The angry woman pointed fiercely in Pu Zhi's direction, but then let it go helplessly.
At this time, Pu Zhi said, "Where are the victims? How many people are there? How did you deal with them?"
"It's not convenient to disclose this." Zheng Guan knew that he had run into a tough guy and could only avoid talking about it.
After hearing this answer, Pu Zhi analyzed and outputted again: "If you let them return to normal life, the martial arts matter will not be concealed at all. So you are still locking them up? Or..."
She paused briefly before continuing, "Killed?"
Even Qin Xiu couldn't help but get angry after hearing this: "Ms. Pu, it's not your turn to intervene in the affairs of our Base No. 1. We will naturally take good care of the victims and release them when the time is right."
Pu Zhi's lips curled slightly. "So they're locked up, then? You can let those pregnant women out after their injuries have healed, but are you planning to lock up the mutants who were forced to undergo transformation for life?"
The scene fell into awkward silence for a while, until the waiter came to fill Xiao Ren's bowl with meat, breaking the strange silence.
"Okay, let's just eat our meal instead of talking about nonsense." Old Master Pei picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks and took the lead in easing the atmosphere.
After the meal, no one had any appetite, only Xiao Ren ate the most delicious food.
After dinner, Pei Yu volunteered to be the driver for Pu Zhi and Wen Qianxue. Before leaving, Qin Miao nodded and smiled at Pu Zhi politely as a farewell.
Inside the car, Pei Yu was driving, looking different from his nonchalant look yesterday. Although he still had a smile on his face, there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
"Sister Pu Zhi, please tell me about Base No. 3 and General Wudao. They don't want to hear it, but I do."
Wen Qianxue sat in the passenger seat and didn't say anything, but she also wanted to listen.
Pu Zhi told the story of Base No. 3 one by one, of course from a third-person perspective. As for the matter of the martial arts general, she only talked about the note left by the mysterious man.
There was a long silence in the car. If Base No. 3 was real, then what Base No. 1 did would definitely not be any less serious than what Dr. Shangxi did.
Moreover, the end of the world is actually a means for the future, which is too scary.
Judging from the anger and silence of the elders at the dinner just now, it must be true, and they all know about it, but they are hiding it from the younger generation...
"There will be an earthquake in a few months, why haven't I seen you take any action?" Pu Zhi couldn't help asking when he saw that they were almost there.
"What earthquake?" Pei Yu was confused. He had never heard of it before.
Pu Zhi repeated what she had written on the note. Wen Qianxue trembled slightly and asked, "Can earthquakes be man-made?"
After asking this question, she realized that they could even make the apocalypse global, so now if they could create an earthquake, it didn't seem so incredible.
jingle--
Wen Qianxue's phone rang with a message. She picked it up and saw that it was from Qin Miao, asking for afternoon tea.
Wen Qianxue turned to look at Pu Zhi: "Sister Pu Zhi, are you going? It should be to ask you out."
"Go." The sentence was simple and clear. Pu Zhi wanted to see what she was going to do.
Upon hearing the address, Pei Yu immediately turned around, and the three of them soon arrived at Qin Miaoding's place.
In a quiet courtyard, Qin Miao changed into a more breathable short-sleeved shirt and wore slippers to welcome the three people in.
As soon as he entered, Pei Yu exclaimed in surprise: "Brother? Why are you here?"
Pu Zhi looked inside and saw a burly man wearing a tight black short-sleeved shirt and brown overalls sitting at the table drinking tea.
He and Pei Yu are three points similar, with a handsome face as sharp as a knife and distinct angles. Compared with Pei Yu's face which has not completely lost its youthfulness, his is more aggressive. His neat short hair reveals his round skull. This hairstyle that tests his appearance is more like a plus point for him.
Pei Qian turned his head, revealing an aggressive gaze with sharp eyebrows. He opened his thin lips slightly, and spoke in a very magnetic voice, "I came here because I was afraid you'd get into trouble."
Pei Yu twitched speechlessly. He was so old and yet he was still getting into trouble.
Qin Miao smiled and said, "Sit down and talk."
