Watching Su Jiang put the child back in place, Gu Ningzhi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is Huaixi causing trouble again?"
"Yes!" Su Jiang didn’t question why he could distinguish between Huaixi and Huaifeng, just nodded lightly, then finished what she hadn’t said before, "Not long ago, a group of criminals escaped from prison and are committing cris on various planets..."
Gu Ningzhi nodded, "I know about this, part of the reason I’m on Qiming Star is because of this group of people... Do you have a special discovery?"
Su Jiang said, "Yes, I suspect they will act on the day of the academy celebration, targeting the students of Xilena First Affiliated School. And the reason for their actions is to capture high-quality live specins for the research institute..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ningzhi’s face instantly darkened. He had already considered Su Jiang as the Gu family’s daughter-in-law, and the two little ones she bore were definitive proof, so he instinctively categorized Su Jiang as one of his own, trusting her words more than doubting them.
Moreover, he vaguely guessed so things about live research, but still felt a bit doubtful and resistant to this truth. But if these lunatics could build a dangerous research institute underneath the school, what other heinous acts could they not commit?
"Previously, their cris were also to capture live specins for experints... I discovered an escaped specin near Xilena First Affiliated School before, and he was one of the missing persons from the previous attack incident." Su Jiang recalled the boy drenched in blood and Adhesive Devouring Worm mucus, "But he’s already been taken care of by ."
Gu Ningzhi remained silent for a long ti, his expression inscrutable, seemingly evaluating the truth of Su Jiang’s words.
Not long ago, he received a lot of insider information from Su Jiang, which suddenly made sense of things he previously didn’t understand. Gu Ningzhi connected the events and realized many shocking truths, which were hitting him hard like a hamr on his heart.
Suddenly, he sowhat understood why his elder brother defied his father’s wishes to leave the Alliance Military Departnt, choosing instead a road filled with thorns. The force of the military departnt was too straightforward, mostly exposed to others’ view, leaving Brother Gu restrained in his pursuits, unable to act upon corruption even when witnessed. But not so with the Star Thieves, who excelled at fighting violence with violence, which Brother Gu favored.
Gu Ningzhi scratched his head, disheartened to find that there was still so difference and distance between him and his old brother.
Brother Gu, on the surface, defected from the Gu Family, even joining forces opposed to the military, but upon closer thought, he was still defending the Alliance in another way, curbing the Star Thieves and clandestinely clearing out the corrosive elents. As for Gu Ningzhi himself, he has been idling away for years, drifting aimlessly despite forming his own clique, which sadly amounted to nothing more than minor endeavours, not able to form scale.
"So, they’re still going to target the students..." Gu Ningzhi twisted his mouth, feeling very conflicted inside.
"I want to ask for your help!" Su Jiang stated her intent, with a slightly solemn expression, "Though the students of Xilena First Affiliated School have so self-defense ability, they are all rookies without real life-and-death battle experience, whereas the so-called escapees are all tough characters. If encountered, wouldn’t it be wolves among the sheep?"
"Just the two of us?" Gu Ningzhi raised an eyebrow slightly, sowhat incredulous at Su Jiang’s audacity and courage. To defend the entire Xilena First Affiliated School with just the two of them? Does this girl know how big that school is?
"Of course not..." Su Jiang calmly said, Gu Ningzhi breathed a sigh of relief, from her words, it seed there were other helpers. But her next sentence made Young Master Gu Er laugh, because Su Jiang continued, "There’s also Changxi."
Gu Ningzhi really wanted to hold his forehead and lant, what use is adding an autonomous intelligent robot!?
Three people thrown into the ocean wouldn’t stir up the slightest ripple! And don’t you think you forgot soone, girl? Gu Family’s third young master, Gu Ningxuan, is quite a fighter, cheap yet effective, high-quality at a low price, fully committed with no shortcuts!
"My forces aren’t on Qiming Star, I’m afraid I can’t be of much help. But I can call for help, even if unable to assist openly, secretly we can still do sothing. And there’s a rather useful hand nearby, barely counts as fighting strength." Gu Ningzhi considered, then added, "You could include my useless brother too..."
Though he said this, five people are still too few... Gu Ningzhi harbored worried thoughts, unaware that Su Jiang already had plans.
But... Gu Ningxuan? Can he do it? Su Jiang was sowhat doubtful, but thinking he was a student at Xilena Academy, she temporarily dismissed her concern, and went to knock on his door without considering the ti.
Gu Ningxuan had just taken a hot shower, wearing only a towel. Hearing the knock, he got up and opened the door, only to see Su Jiang in a pale yellow pajama, looking at him brightly, "Miss Su... Do you need sothing?"
Gu Ningxuan’s face turned slightly red, realizing how inappropriate he looked, but Su Jiang seed unaware of seeing soone shirtless, her expression grave as she spoke, "Gu Ningxuan, I need your help with sothing..."
Gu Ningxuan tightened his expression, listening carefully to Su Jiang, while, at the sa ti, Gu Xiaosan’s second brother Gu Ningzhi was figuring out how to contact the "helper" he ntioned. But the other party was quite arrogant, repeatedly rejecting his video requests, yet Young Master Gu Er was persistent.
Finally, the other party, exasperated by his relentless determination, angrily accepted the video, roaring at Gu Ningzhi, "If you have nothing useful to say, just get lost! It’s the middle of the night, don’t people need to sleep?"
Gu Ningzhi tilted his head, using his little finger to clean his ear, muttering, "Old Man Gu, mind your image..." (to be continued.
