On the long table, everyone’s expressions were extrely serious. Even Pang Fei, who was usually relaxed, had to focus at this mont.
Looking from the left.
There was Tang Xiaoyu, the priest from the Sinking Iron Church, Law Enforcent Captain Allen, and Advisor Zhao from the Martial Arts School Alliance.
On the right were ng Lei from the Holy Light Church, the Anomaly Bureau General Office, and Qiong Jiu.
Plus Pang Fei.
These seven people essentially had the power to control any matter in Linjiang except for the Hades Prison.
"Since everyone is here today, I won’t beat around the bush."
Pang Fei said with a steady gaze, "There is a traitor within the Ard Departnt, and their position should not be low. There weren’t many prisoners in the lounge at the ti, so the range for screening isn’t very large.
The traitor is definitely one of them, able to have a clear understanding of Baiyu’s situation."
Tap, tap...
The sound of knuckles tapping on the table rang out.
ng Lei from the Holy Light Church spoke in a deep voice:
"I don’t want to ddle in the Ard Departnt’s internal traitor affairs. If we handled it like the Holy Light Church, anyone suspicious would have to enter the ’Confession Room.’
But this is a traitor in the Ard Departnt, so I won’t interfere.
This ti I’m here to understand Baiyu’s abilities. He is already a Sequence Nine Transcendent, and he appears to be very similar to a Sequence that disappeared from our Holy Light Church’s heritage.
I want to see for myself. If he truly is that lost Sequence, we will welco him back."
ng Lei’s eyes swept over the crowd, landing on Baiyu, then he showed a gentle smile.
Pang Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
The lunatics of the Holy Light Church are completely unreasonable, always ready to perish together with the evil and bizarre.
Every mber of the Holy Light Church carries a Holy Light Pocket Watch.
If they find themselves in a desperate situation, they open the Holy Light Pocket Watch, which then becos a small C4 explosion, purifying everything around them.
Dealing with such lunatics, if they insisted blindly, would be very unpleasant.
But it seems the other side is not causing trouble.
"One thing at a ti, I believe you’ve noticed that the atmosphere in Linjiang has been quite off recently."
Just as Pang Fei finished speaking, he was interrupted again.
"General Pang, I’ve brought the Houste Duo-headed Dog with today. If you’re going to root out the traitor, I can be of great help."
The General Office slightly smiled, opening his calloused hands.
In his hand was a mini hound.
This hound was rather mystical, with two heads, one black and one white, currently circling in the General Office’s hand at high speed.
"A B Level Sealing Object..."
Pang Fei recalled the characteristics of the Houste Hound.
It possessed absolutely real eyes, capable of seeing through people’s minds and intolerant of any lies. Its drawback was that after each use of its ability, the Houste Hound had to eat a pound of gold and rest for three months.
Indeed, very convenient.
Rumor had it that it was found in a Simulation Realm, where besides a distorted and chaotic environnt, only this exotic beast was left, which the Anomaly Bureau contained.
After various institutional tests,
this hound had no subjective consciousness and possessed no attack power. However, whenever soone lied while answering questions, its two heads would chuckle.
Since its threat level wasn’t high, it was only classified as a B Level Sealing Object, which the General Office could directly mobilize.
"Since the General Office has brought the Houste Hound, the matter becos simple."
Pang Fei’s gaze swept over the room.
The nine people in the lounge, along with a few staff mbers who clearly had patrolling duties but were absent at the ti.
These were the main suspects.
"Go ahead."
The General Office gave a slight push to the palm-sized Houste Hound.
It staggered its steps, walking to the first person.
"Is the Ard Departnt’s surveillance cut-off related to you?"
The General Office asked casually.
The person trembled all over, hurriedly shaking his head: "No... I never did anything treacherous, and I don’t know why the surveillance failed."
The Houste Hound did not emit the chuckling sound.
The General Office turned his gaze to the next person.
Step by step, as he asked each one, it finally reached Qi Jie. As it was about to be his turn, he shivered all over.
"Qi Jie, hmm, quite a good record."
"Are you really Qi Jie?"
The General suddenly asked.
Qi Jie’s face turned stiff, nodding: "Yes."
"Do you have anything to do with the damage to the lounge surveillance?"
"No."
"Chuckle..."
At this mont, the Houste Hound suddenly twitched, and both of its faces showed a human-like smile.
"Damn it, this lousy thing..."
Qi Jie’s face changed, almost imdiately erupting.
He was not fleeing; instead, he gathered all his blood qi into his right palm, charging at Baiyu, who was sitting in front of him.
He wanted to trade one for one in desperation!
"Sniping ti."
"Pierce through!"
The General fixed his gaze on Qi Jie.
A thousandth of a second later, Qi Jie’s body seed to be crushed in place by an imnse invisible force.
Bang!
An air bullet exploded without any warning on Qi Jie’s chest.
This Tier Eight Martial Artist instantly lost his ability to move, his body still in the action posture, blood gushing continuously from his mouth.
"General Pang, we’ve found the traitor for you, but it turns out to be just a pawn in treachery."
The General Office sneered coldly.
Everyone looked at the spectacle of Qi Jie being crushed, feeling a chill down their spines.
The High Tier Transcendent of the Gunman Sequence...
Known as one of the most lethal sequences.
The General’s actions just now didn’t even use blood qi, only extraordinary power.
"Continue the interrogation!"
The interrogation continued.
One by one, the staff mbers nervously went through Houste’s inspection, Chang Fu breathed a sigh of relief, wiping his forehead drenched in sweat, and looked at the still immobile Qi Jie.
A gunman...
Such ability is virtually invincible in one-on-one situations.
"Alright, this traitor has been found out. General Pang only needs to hand him over to the interrogation departnt, and they can make him spill everything. Now it’s ti to talk about Baiyu’s issue.
I think your educational thods are sowhat biased."
The General tapped his fingers on the table, a hint of admiration in his chestnut-colored eyes, "Such an excellent talent, clearly more suited for academic research, yet you have him fighting and battling. Isn’t this a waste?"
"Isn’t the purpose of student learning to beco a Martial Artist and fight exotic beasts and alien races?"
Qiong Jiu objected.
"That’s for the average student. Moreover, your Martial School Elite route is not that outstanding; the achievents in recent years have been diocre. The military and Ard Departnt bear most of the brunt against the exotic beasts."
The General’s gaze fell on Baiyu: "However, right now, I still need to confirm one thing. Baiyu, you... are you Baiyu?"
Houste stared at him.
Baiyu’s face slightly changed.
Damn.
This old man doesn’t follow the script at all!
How should I answer?
Baiyu’s mind was racing.
The pressure from the General was also terrifying, almost suffocating Baiyu.
"Of course I am!"
"I am ."
Suddenly.
Baiyu gritted his teeth and said resolutely.
