"Name."

"Xue Ming."

Yin Cheng was startled, and when he looked up, Xue Ming was sitting opposite him with a smile.

Yincheng was surprised and happy to meet old friends. He quickly stood up and walked over and said, "Oh, I didn't expect that Commander Xue came here in person?"

Xue Ming also stood up and hugged Yin Cheng. Although they only met after the Golden Birdcage incident, they hit it off immediately. Although they have been busy with their own lives over the years, they have a good personal relationship.

Xue Ming said with a smile: "Didn't I hear that you were in big trouble here, so I hurriedly asked Ying to come over and help."

Yincheng sighed after hearing this and smiled bitterly: "Hey, I have just arrived here and such a big thing happened within a day. If you don't come, I really don't know how to leave."

Xue Mingdao looked very relaxed and asked, "Oh? I was in good condition when I was watching you interrogating the two of them outside just now?"

Yin Cheng shook his head and said, "What's good? Do you think those two just looked like they knew the truth?"

Xue Ming said nothing, only smiled slightly.

Yincheng added: "But I don't need to worry about these things now. Once you come, the matter will be left to you. I'd better prepare for the next exploration work."

Xue Ming said: "Let's put the exploration work on hold for now."

"Um?"

"The order I just received requires a thorough investigation. When will the investigation be completed and when will we enter the bottom layer of the ruins?" Xue Ming passed the original order to Yincheng.

Yincheng only raised his eyebrows and did not look down. He frowned and said: "But the transfer order I received is only for three months. If I can't find out the truth for a while, I will have to return to the North.

I've been there, and you know there are a lot of things going on over there at the border."

"Don't worry, it won't take long. I think... there will be great progress tonight." Xue Ming said as he took out a delicate small leather bag from his arms and opened it with four items inside.

A cigar.

Just by looking at the quality, you can tell it's very expensive.

Xue Ming handed one to Yincheng: "Try this, the leaves grown in my own manor."

Yincheng knew that although the Xue family was not as good as the seven major families, it still had a strong foundation, so he was not polite. He took it and put it to his nose and smelled it before praising: "It's a good thing."

Xue Ming took out a cigar cutter, cut it for him, and then lit it for him.

Yincheng was full of praise after taking a sip, but this was just a small relaxation. After resting for a while, Yincheng asked quietly: "Is there any clue about this matter... before?"

Xue Ming smiled and said nothing. He patted Yincheng on the shoulder and said, "I'm not good at interrogation, so I'll let you do it. I'll go see the scene first."

He was about to leave, but Yincheng grabbed him and asked, "Tsk, are you trying to hide it from me?"

Xue Ming still didn't say much. He patted Yin Cheng's hand and said: "Don't worry, brother, I'm no longer the Order I used to be. I won't sacrifice so many innocent people for something. You understand me.

What do you mean?"

Yincheng understood. He could see the sincerity in Xue Ming's eyes, but Xue Ming's deliberate concealment still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Hey... Okay then, when I'm done here, I'll sort out the things and hand them over to you."

"Well, thank you." Xue Ming said and left.

After a while, a child who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old came in.

As soon as he entered the room, he said bluntly: "I know who provided them with the explosives."

Yincheng, who was still smoking a cigar and meditating, didn't hear clearly. After being stunned for a moment, he frowned and said, "What did you say?"

"They are not 'disciples'. They are people from Hong Yan, sent by Zhang Yi. They have been trying to prevent us from finding out the truth." The young man said frankly.

Yin Cheng heard it clearly this time. He stood up and walked over to the boy who was two heads shorter than him and said, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Facing the big man Yincheng, the young man showed no fear on his face. He smiled and said: "Of course I know, and it is precisely because I know that I must remain silent until you come to investigate this matter."

Yincheng was a little confused after hearing this. He sorted out the boy's answer for a while before he understood what he meant.

"You mean...there are still their people in the base?"

The young man smiled slightly and said nothing, but Yincheng already understood.

He stepped out of the way, pointed to the chair and said, "Go sit down."

The boy did as he was told.

Yincheng bit his cigar and checked the boy's identity.

His name is Jiang Guishi, and he has just celebrated his eighteenth birthday. He is a third-year A-level graduate student at Hongzhi College. His main subjects are classical art and etiquette philosophy.

Shortly after Jiang Guishi was born, his parents were killed in an accident. Fortunately, his parents bought a growth fund for him when he was born. Therefore, although Jiang Guishi lacked the care of his parents in his life, he did not suffer from it.

What crime.

A month ago, Jiang Guishi, who stood out from more than a thousand volunteers, came to the Fulahiya Prairie Temple Ruins Exploration Base and joined Bai Jin's team.

His background is very clean, but what he said just now surprised Yin Cheng.

After sitting in front of Jiang Guishi, Yincheng asked: "Although it is not a secret that Zhang Yi is Hong Yan's number one talker, it has never been made public. You have grown up in Hong Zhushi Academy since you were a child.

of

Student boy, how do you know him?"

Jiang Guishi said calmly: "Reading thousands of books can travel a thousand miles. What's more, with today's technical means, if you want to understand a person, as long as he is not in a prominent position and deliberately hides himself, the minimum information is still very little.

Easy to find, isn't it, Major Yincheng?"

Yincheng was stunned for a moment, then became happy: "You are right, then can you tell me how you were sure that they were people sent by Hong Yan?"

Jiang Guishi stretched out his right hand and spread his palm. Then his palm cracked and a golden crystal floated into the air, hovering above his palm.

When he saw the crystal, the smile on Yincheng's face disappeared.

"Why are you here?" These words were said in a tone of gritted teeth. Yincheng was already trying his best to restrain his anger.

Jiang Guishi smiled and said: "Major, you don't have to be angry. I am not it, and it is not here, but it gave me these things, and it was with the help of it that I learned the secrets of them."

After hearing this, Yincheng reconfirmed the identity of Jiang Guishi in front of him and then calmed down a little, but his impression of Jiang Guishi had deteriorated a lot.

"Since you know what these people are going to do? Why didn't you give advance warning?!"

Jiang Guishi said: "Early warning also requires evidence. I only knew what they were going to do, and I only confirmed their identity after the fact. How can I give early warning?"

"Fart!" Yincheng became more and more angry as he listened, even swearing. He slammed the table, and the titanium steel tabletop was dented.

No matter how calm Jiang Guishi was, he was still frightened. Although he didn't scream, his face obviously turned pale.

"Even if there is no evidence! As long as you warned in advance, at least these more than a hundred people would not have to die!!" Yincheng stood up, and he laughed angrily. He originally thought that the attack must be too secretive to cause this.

There were heavy casualties, but I didn't expect that there were so many things going on inside.

Jiang Guishi was silent for a while and then continued what he said before: "What's more... this is only their first step. Their main purpose is not at the base, so... if we stop them now, it will be difficult.

To prevent a real disaster..."

Yincheng really smiled this time. He clenched his fists, suppressed his anger and said, "Oh? Then you have a sense of the overall situation? Do those more than a hundred people still have to thank you?"

Jiang Guishi raised his head blankly: "Thank me?"

"Yes, if it weren't for you, how could we have caught these people out, and how could they have been called 'heroes'?" Yincheng's words completely fit his character.

When he and Nan Yingjian chose to leave the center of power, they would rather have a much lower status, or even start from scratch, just to find a clean place to protect the pure land in their hearts.

However, he did not expect that in this child who had not graduated, Yincheng actually saw a view of the chess game that regarded human life as nothing.

But then... Jiang Guishi's words silenced Yincheng completely.

Jiang returned with his head lowered and said: "Eighteen years ago, my parents were the first batch of volunteers to assist the free people from Alub to Percival. On the way to support, they were attacked by 'vultures'

, and were killed together with 125 other supporters in the attack... After the incident, the authorities expressed regret for the incident and took advantage of the situation to suspend all related voluntary support activities indefinitely. Instead, they allowed free people one by one

A port was established for the trading of goods. At that time...it was the head of the Bai family who requested the suspension and implemented the port policy, who was the highest management level of the Glorious Republic at that time - Bai Yuanzhen, the Minister of Administration."

After hearing this, Yin Cheng frowned and said, "Why are you telling me this?"

Jiang Guishi raised his head and forced out a wry smile and said, "Please give me ten minutes to finish what I have to say, okay, Major?"

Yincheng's first feeling when he heard this request was disgust, but inexplicably, he felt that Jiang Guishi would not waste these ten minutes, so he pulled up a chair and sat down opposite him, with a few gaps between them.

When it reaches one meter, there is no longer the deformed table in the middle.

"Okay, tell me." Yincheng took a deep breath from the cigar, looked at the time and said, "I'll give you fifteen minutes."

Jiang Guishi smiled gratefully: "Thank you."

Yincheng didn't look up: "Fourteen minutes and fifty-five seconds."

Jiang Guishi clenched his hands, collected his emotions and continued: "Establishing a free trade port allows free people to exist independently, and at the same time, it can avoid, no... it can also satisfy many kind-hearted people like my parents in the dome.

This is a perfect policy, of course... The only thing that is suspicious is why the transport team guarded by more than 200 guards was completely wiped out by the Vultures who were relatively inferior in equipment and personnel, without even leaving a single survivor.

Come down?"

Yincheng was shocked, but said nothing.

Jiang Guishi: "Actually, some people raised similar questions at the time and conducted investigations, but without exception... they all gained nothing. And with the implementation of the policy, there are more and more voices supporting the policy in the dome.

No one is willing to say anything to spoil the fun. After all, the vultures that harmed my parents and more than 400 others are vultures, a group of 'scavengers'. They are nameless and the Central Rappelling Center is not sure where they are until...
