"General Xia, this way please."
Xia Shizhao nodded slightly, pushed open the three doors, and walked for a few more minutes.
Only then did they see Gu Ke, who was being held captive.
The prison environment is quite nice; there are even bookshelves.
Xia Shizhao knocked on the glass. Gu Ke, who was sitting on the floor reading a book, looked up at her, her previously indifferent expression suddenly brightening. "Zhaozhao!"
wrong.
Xia Shizhao lowered his eyebrows slightly as he observed Gu Ke, who was looking at him expectantly.
She exclaimed excitedly, tossing the book aside, "You've come to my rescue!"
Looking at his unfamiliar friend, Xia Shizhao raised an eyebrow.
He looked at Gu Ke, who seemed both familiar and unfamiliar, with a strange expression.
He opened his mouth and demanded, "Who are you? Where is Gu Ke?"
Gu Ke tilted her head, looking puzzled. "Zhao Zhao, are you injured and have lost your memory? I am Gu Ke! Come in and let me see you."
Ignoring her, Xia Shizhao's gaze shifted to the book that Gu Ke had casually tossed on the ground.
Because he was a prisoner with special circumstances, Gu Ke almost risked his life to provide support during the last insect swarm.
So he wasn't sentenced to death, but he'll never get out of here for the rest of his life.
The bookshelf is full of novels for passing the time, and it looks like quite a few of them were taken from Gu Ke's house.
The book lying on the ground was Gu Ke's favorite novel.
I cherished it when I bought it, not only because it was out of print, but also because it had the author's autograph on it.
They jumped and danced in front of me as if they had found a precious treasure.
Now it can be thrown away so easily.
"I'll ask you again, who are you? You'd better tell me the truth."
Xia Shizhao looked at 'Gu Ke' in front of him with a forced smile.
Gu Ke looked aggrieved. "Zhao Zhao, what are you doing? Don't you remember when you were afraid of the dark at the beginning of the semester, I left a nightlight for you?"
Xia Shizhao's smile widened, his eyes turning almost icy as he stared intently at Gu Ke, who was recounting their past.
A rough judgment was made.
Memory sharing.
Unsurprisingly, Yu Qinlu is in the same situation.
No wonder Liu Ruxuan was initially unwilling to let herself come into contact with Yu Qinlu.
Xia Shizhao let out a muffled, cold laugh, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Don't try to play the emotional card with me. What was your purpose in breaking me out of prison?"
Gu Ke remained calm, but her voice was aggrieved: "Qin Lu finally showed up, but she was still captured and studied. It's so pitiful. I can't let go of so many years of feelings, so I want to let her go."
"Are you out of your mind?"
Hearing this almost nonsensical reason, Xia Shizhao spoke up in surprise and mocked.
Not only that, Xia Shizhao also instantly caught Gu Ke's expression twist slightly, and saw her quickly hide her displeasure as she pitifully said to her:
"Really, I was bewitched. I know I was wrong. Zhao Zhao, please ask General Luo and the others to have mercy on me. At least let me out. I'm willing to be under supervision at any time."
"…………"
Xia Shizhao remained silent for a long time, staring intently at Gu Ke for a while before clenching his fists tightly at his sides, then turned and left the detention cell.
She is not herself.
It was late autumn, and a chilly wind was picking up outside. They had just finished watching a film together and were leaving the theater when she said:
"The people in the story are so pitiful. They are monitored their whole lives. What I, Gu Ke, yearn for most in my life is freedom. I would rather die than not have freedom. It is so pathetic to live under the gaze of others. It is terrifying to have every little thing about a person with no privacy known by others."
Actually, Xia Shizhao didn't feel anything about the film. She thought that being monitored was fine, it didn't affect her normal life.
But after Gu Ke finished speaking, she seemed to have some vague feelings.
If your every move, habit, and hobby is observed by others, you are not a person; you are a toy being stared at, or a pet being admired.
Walking into another solitary confinement cell, Xia Shizhao looked at Yu Qinlu with a complex expression in his eyes. He pushed open the door, walked to Yu Qinlu's side, and bowed slightly to her: "You have her memories?"
"Zhaozhao, it hurts so much."
Tears welled up in Yu Qinlu's eyes. "Grandma and my sister are both dead. Aren't you going to save me?"
Xia Shizhao looked at the face and reached out to touch it, a hint of emotion in his eyes.
Yu Qinlu's eyes widened suddenly, and a crisp slap came from her face.
"Smack—"
"I won't allow you to make that expression with her face."
Xia Shizhao said expressionlessly.
If Yu Qinlu were alive, she wouldn't use them to stir up other people's emotional wounds and put on a pitiful, tearful expression.
Pinching the chin of the stunned Yu Qinlu, Xia Shizhao looked at her and threatened her, saying each word with a hint of threat: "Don't humiliate her like this."
The violent spiritual energy surged wildly towards the person in front of her, and Yu Qinlu let out a low growl of pain from her throat.
The alphas leading the way wanted to kneel before Xia Shizhao, their legs trembling slightly from the pressure of the emanating mental energy. If they weren't holding onto the wall, they suspected they would have fallen to the ground.
"General...please stop! The doctor still needs her to do the experiment..."
After his subordinate finished speaking tremblingly, Xia Shizhao withdrew his spiritual power, looked at the unconscious person, and slowly and deliberately fixed her hair.
He slowly straightened up, glanced at the soldier beside him whose legs were trembling, and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
The soldier shook his head, took two steps back in relief, and looked at Xia Shizhao with some fear in his eyes.
Xia Shizhao looked at him with suspicion, only to see the man suddenly stand up straight, salute her, and then run away as if a ghost were chasing him.
She also touched her nose for no apparent reason and turned to look at Yu Qinlu.
He lifted his leg and left the detention cell.
After getting into the car, Xia Shizhao sat in the back, rubbing his temples.
My head hurts so much.
I don't know why, but my head keeps throbbing after I came out of the Mermaid Sea.
After rubbing his head for a while, Xia Shizhao started thinking again about when Gu Ke was parasitized.
Or rather...when did he die?
Xia Shizhao felt almost numb to the deaths of those around him, his eyes somewhat glazed over.
Squinting at the sun in the sky.
The warm winter sun feels so comforting.
But her body still couldn't withstand the chill that nature gave her.
When exactly did things start going wrong...?
Oh, right.
Xia Shizhao suddenly remembered a flaw that had been overlooked.
During the insect swarm, the old leader went missing and could not be found.
Only then did Ye Qiuling begin to issue direct orders for defense.
How did he die?
When did he die?
What's even more puzzling is that the old leader died in a highly confidential basement in his own home.
If it weren't for the electronic alarm, no one would have been able to find his body.
And the corpse.
It seems that only Principal Wu had seen it, and he was the first to discover the leader's death.
There are many doubts.
Like a tangled ball of yarn, the threads were so knotted that Xia Shizhao's mind went blank as he thought about what would happen next.
…………
Sitting in Ye Qiuling's office, Xia Shizhao naturally took the documents sent by the Third Organization and began to read them.
After reading through the stack of documents, Xia Shizhao turned his gaze to the confidential document on the cover.
I opened it and looked at it for a while.
It only took a few seconds.
Xia Shizhao gasped, his eyes wide with astonishment.
If she hadn't taken over the third organization's files, she would never have discovered how much Ye Qiuling had done for her.
For example, she concealed her mecha-building skills, and she also engaged in the unethical act of ripping off the Lunar Federation and Star Federation members by inflating prices to sell them drugs.
It turns out that Ye Qiuling knew who the mysterious pharmacist was when she was tricked for the second time.
Um……
Xia Shizhao lowered his head, his expression complex. His index finger unconsciously rubbed his earlobe. Next time we meet...
Let's give Ye Qiuling a nice look.
