Capítulo 2041: Chapter 2036: Covering Each Other’s Tracks
“Professor Fu Qian’s interests are really broad… So why the Virtue and Compassion Assembly?”
At that mont, the air was sowhat silent, and facing Yuan Fang and Lanaia’s subconscious gaze, Aike didn’t remain silent for long.
“Honestly, I did have my suspicions, but there seem to be no symbolic traces at the scene. We can’t just conclude they’re those nature-worshipping folks because the thorns are fresh.”
She imdiately expressed admiration for the other’s vast knowledge, but she didn’t blindly adopt his opinion.
“Actually, I’m not very familiar with them, I’ve just heard a bit about their ideologies.”
And Professor Fu Qian, who was always modest, remained humble, gesturing towards the inside with his chin.
“As for the reason, although they haven’t used their usual poison, there are still symbolic traces.”
The “poison” he ntioned naturally referred to the Tumor Flower Blossom that Ji Yin, one of the Greedy Worms, had encountered.
Though he only paid distant attention, the uniqueness of that power still left a deep impression.
Ji Yin, who was unlucky to be affected, managed to escape only by relying on the grace of the Abandonnt King.
At this point, it’s quite a pity that after escaping the prison, even the calls from those devout believers were no longer received.
It’s easy to imagine the fear that the Greedy Worms might experience after newly strengthening their faith.
But it’s okay, this might motivate them to seek out that mysterious demigod who blessed them and have Selana lead them to him.
“What traces? All I saw was a aningless ornant.”
Apparently piqued by Fu Qian’s words, Aike’s eyes lit up as she pursued the question.
“You’ve actually already said it, it’s ‘aningless’.”
In response, Fu Qian just chuckled, his answer akin to a brain-twister.
“Besides them, who else would do sothing like this?”
…
It indeed seems so…
No words for a mont, but as Aike frowned, she actually nodded slightly.
Clearly, she had so understanding of the temperant of those extre environntalists.
Performing such actions within the Night Watchn Base is highly risky while offering no tangible reward.
All in all, it seed like a senseless act, which indeed sowhat aligned with their style.
“Strictly speaking, it shouldn’t be financially motivated, but from another angle, it does hold so value.”
Seeing the other party sowhat grasping the spirit, Professor Fu, aside from being pleased, casually added.
“Ah? So their purpose was…”
This ti, it was Yuan Fang who interrupted with surprise.
“Mockery, I’d say. They aren’t very satisfied with the Night Watchn’s work in protecting the innocent citizens who haven’t committed cris against the world.”
Fu Qian responded as a matter of course, once again gesturing towards the motionless Lily.
“Running to the Night Watchn Base to do sothing like this, in my view, is akin to spraying graffiti.”
…
“So perhaps we don’t have much reason to pursue this matter?”
A slightly excessive taphor successfully shook Aike and the others for a while, yet in the end, she still courageously summarized the consultant’s opinion.
“If possible, it’s certainly better to figure it out. But I suspect you don’t really have the capability to pursue it.
“I can’t completely confirm or deny its connection to Ian at the ti, nor can I rule out the possibility that the Virtue and Compassion Assembly did it, or soone wanted us to think they did. But just from the current situation, several points can be concluded—”
Pointing at Lily’s head, Professor Fu’s next comntary was far from polite.
“Very familiar with the area, extrely skilled at hiding, the operator is soone who can seamlessly enter and exit the Night Watchn Base, perhaps even able to traverse space.
“Even with preparation, it’s not easy to find such a person, let alone that as an idealist, they lack vested interests that would make them vulnerable.”
Quickly profiling a character, Fu Qian clearly analyzed the key points—which were completely accurate according to Lady Corin.
Indeed, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Casually returning the favor, Fu Qian felt no psychological burden.
Known to all, idealistic groups tend to diversify power structures, developing their peers within.
Paired with the characteristics of being “very familiar with the Night Watchn Base” and “specialized in spatial traversal,” it’s believed Aike will soon begin to reflect internally.
And for Lady Corin, even if she gets caught in the act, this contrast of elite offenders being found gambling in groups would surely make her marvel at life’s mysteries.
Even more astonishing, even as she witnessed the framing process firsthand, she’d have to admit her statent was reasonable and well-founded.
As for whether Corin was truly gambling—of course not.
Last night, she was busy with matters of life and death, hardly having this leisure.
“Everyone… could you give a room with a window?”
At this mont, the person behind the glass finally moved.
Gently wiping the blood from her head, Lily turned around and surprisingly made a request.
…
Indeed, it’s not entirely a solution. Although it’s far from capable of countering Ecstasy, achieving a temporary balance through pain is still possible.
Throughout life, many seek similar things.
Lily’s request was quickly granted, including her remaining crown on her head.
And Fu Qian didn’t break his word, not speaking further after fully expressing the “helplessness” the, no interest in chatting further with Lily.
The Seed of Ecstasy, as Lord Stomach’s specialty, once activated, becos a true path of no return.
After bidding farewell to Lord Aike, he rely toured the Night Watchn Base alongside Lanaia, guided by Yuan Fang.
Although the final hospitality standard was quite similar to employee als, Fu Qian didn’t fuss over such details and quickly returned content.
“Thanks for your efforts.”
On the way back, Lanaia was a bit silent, seemingly touched by Lily’s changes, finally thanking her subordinate for their contribution.
“It’s my duty.”
Fu Qian, with his unwavering sense of responsibility, politely responded and directly returned to the laboratory—
“Back so soon?”
As he pushed the door, a certain figure turned naturally to look over.
Cloaked in gray, vertical pupils, a kind smile.
Indeed it was him; the old man was really energetic.
“Welco.”
Fu Qian praised in his heart, casually welcoming the leader’s visit.
Yes, who else but Cass out on field research.
Professor Lisa’s comnt was indeed correct, here he was right after finishing his task.
“Your research assistant asked to watch over the place for her.”
Pouring a cup of tea for Fu Qian who had co to sit beside him, the Heaven’s Comncent Institute’s official director smilingly explained why he was the only one there.
“Thanks to you, I just went to enjoy so breakfast.”
Fu Qian also casually explained why he had just arrived.
And as he picked up the tea and drank it down, a burst of mysterious laughter echoed through the laboratory.
