It wasn’t long before the two of them arrived on the seventh floor. The entire seventh floor consisted of individual interrogation rooms, each equipped with dedicated guards outside.
Although the soundproofing was excellent, various sounds of breakdowns could still be heard.
Xiao Xun’s expression grew increasingly tense. She turned her head and asked Su Mo, "Could you help find soone to ask about the situation of the Xiao Family mbers who were summoned?"
Su Mo looked around, and from a distance, he saw Daisy, who had also gone upstairs.
It made sense since she was so familiar with Xiao Jie’s matters; she was probably in charge of this area.
"Co with ; I’ll take you to ask her."
Su Mo led Xiao Xun towards Daisy.
At that mont, Daisy was instructing a subordinate, speaking coldly.
"Do not let any interrogated person sleep; turn the lights in the interrogation room to the maximum to destroy their psychological defenses and extract all valuable information."
"Understood!"
"You may go now."
Daisy then noticed Su Mo bringing Xiao Xun over.
"Yes!"
The subordinate imdiately left.
"Daisy, could you do a favor?"
Su Mo asked with a smile.
Daisy gave Su Mo and Xiao Xun a cold look and asked, "What do you want?"
"My friend here is also from the Xiao Family. She wants to inquire about the situation of the people who were summoned. Can you make an exception?"
Su Mo coughed and asked earnestly.
Daisy’s eyes flickered slightly. Unusually, she didn’t explode with anger but said,
"I can disclose the situation, but don’t expect any leniency or favoritism from us."
Su Mo was quite satisfied with this; it was already a big favor.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun expressed her gratitude: "I’d like to ask about Xiao Qijin and Xiao Nan’s current situation."
"Xiao Nan, as Xiao Jie’s father, has a hard ti clearing the association with his son’s treason, and Xiao Qijin, as the actual head of the Xiao Family, can’t escape responsibility either."
Daisy replied coldly.
Hearing this, Xiao Xun was almost unable to stand. She hurriedly explained, "My father and brother have no reason to betray the nation; all of this is Xiao Jie’s doing alone."
"Do you think saying that ans anything? The facts are evident. However, I can share this with you: so far, we haven’t found evidence of their participation in the treason; otherwise, the entire Xiao Family would be uprooted."
Daisy’s eyes were filled with disdain.
Xiao Xun, biting her lip, asked, "Is it possible that as long as we prove they didn’t participate in Xiao Jie’s actions, they can be acquitted?"
"Do you really think it’s possible they weren’t involved at all? Xiao Jie managed to hide so well because the Xiao Family provided him significant convenience, didn’t they?"
Daisy’s words rendered Xiao Xun speechless.
Xiao Xun didn’t know what else to say, her eyes only turning red.
Daisy turned to Su Mo and said, "Is there anything else? If not, I’m leaving, and don’t linger at the Black and White Organization any longer."
"Alright, we’re leaving now."
Su Mo expressed his gratitude.
Daisy finished speaking and turned to leave.
Su Mo coughed lightly, looking at Xiao Xun, who seed a bit dazed, and comforted, "Auntie, perhaps you should go back and wait for news? The Black and White Organization should handle things fairly, so don’t worry too much."
Xiao Xun shook her head and said to Su Mo, "Thank you, but you should go back first. I want to stay here a little longer."
"Alright."
Su Mo sighed, didn’t say much more, and turned to leave.
It was enough to have returned a favor; as for the ss left by Xiao Jie, he had no intention of dealing with it.
...
Not long after, Su Mo found himself alone on a street in Imperial City.
Just as he was about to buy a bottle of water to ease his throat.
His phone suddenly rang.
Bzz bzz~
An unfamiliar number was calling.
Curious, Su Mo answered it since not many people had his number.
"Hello?"
"Hello, is this Mr. Su Mo?"
A very pleasant voice ca through the phone.
"Yes, and who might you be?"
"You have a parcel that has arrived. Please proceed imdiately to the K24 area warehouse at the Imperial City military interstellar port to complete the receipt procedures."
"Um, can’t you deliver it to my door?"
Su Mo was montarily taken aback, then imdiately realized that this must be the gift from Long Ming.
"I’m sorry, that’s not possible."
"Alright, I’ll head over now."
Su Mo then hung up the phone, a bit puzzled by the lack of a door-to-door delivery service.
But that wasn’t important; what mattered was the gift, and he was a bit curious, asking the Fake Owner, Swallower.
"Fake Owner, Swallower, what do you think Long Ming would gift ?"
"How would I know? Go and see for yourself."
"Alright then."
...
Soon after, Su Mo arrived at the Imperial City military interstellar port area.
Heavily guarded, he could see Second Generation chas patrolling, with the leading captain piloting a Third Generation cha.
After so effort, Su Mo finally got inside.
He headed towards the K24 warehouse.
However, upon reaching the warehouse, Su Mo paused slightly, seeing Tang Qin standing at the warehouse entrance.
"Lord Su Mo."
Tang Qin gracefully bowed and greeted Su Mo.
"Miss Tang Qin, what are you doing here? Wait, was it you who called earlier?"
Su Mo suddenly realized.
"Hehe, yes, the gift from the Council President is inside the warehouse; you can go in and check it out."
Tang Qin motioned for Su Mo to enter.
Feeling a bit suspicious, Su Mo walked in, only to see a massive electronic sealed container in the large warehouse.
"This big?"
Su Mo was a bit surprised, but soon guessed what it might be, his eyes lighting up with enthusiasm.
He approached and pressed the electronic button on the sealed container.
Click!
The entire sealed container unfolded, revealing a brand new Pseudo V Generation Biological cha, Ghostly Deford, in Su Mo’s view.
"Ghostly Deford? I thought it would be a purely chanical Fake V Generation cha."
Su Mo’s face fell a little, not because the gift wasn’t good, but because this thing wasn’t practical to use.
At this mont, Tang Qin approached with a smile and said to Su Mo, "Lord Su Mo, you’re probably unaware that the Federation’s finances are quite strained right now. There isn’t a single purely chanical Fake V Generation cha within the entire Federation. Even if Lord Long Ming wanted to gift you one, he couldn’t afford it, so please don’t mind."
"Ahem, I didn’t an it like that; Ghostly Deford will do."
Su Mo replied awkwardly.
"It’s good to have sothing to work with; it’s a fully repaired Pseudo V Generation Biological cha, Ghostly Deford. Moreover, the biological cabin of this Pseudo V Generation Biological cha, Ghostly Deford, has undergone special modifications to greatly enhance its anti-pollution capabilities, virtually eliminating contact pollution. The pilot will only suffer from compliance pollution from the Super Nerve. It’s hundreds of tis better than the one you piloted before. If you had piloted this state of Ghostly Deford cha then, there wouldn’t have been so many problems. Besides, this fully repaired Pseudo V Generation Biological cha, Ghostly Deford, is worth at least 5 billion Star Coins, isn’t it?"
At this point, the deep voice of the Fake Owner, Swallower, echoed in Su Mo’s mind.
