Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1629: Visitor from Beyond the Skies (16)
Study room.
Mr. He carefully examined the girl opposite him. Chuzheng sat casually in the chair, her fingers resting on the chair’s back, showing no discomfort at being scrutinized.
Mr. He crossed his hands, propping his elbows on the table, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"Mr. He, do you believe in alien civilizations?"
Mr. He’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and Chuzheng felt a sense of oppression emanating from him.
Chuzheng was a bit surprised by this reaction... Did he already know?
Speaking of which, why did this planet turn out this way?
Chuzheng had tried to find information before, but many sources were incomplete.
Some said it was because of sudden environmental changes.
Some said it was because of war.
The Underground City had existed for a long time, and the first batch of people who experienced it had long since died out.
So the people now don’t know much about that period of history.
Mr. He quickly returned to normal, saying calmly, "Go on, I’m listening."
Chuzheng’s lips parted slightly: "There are alien beings here."
Mr. He’s eyes sparkled with sharpness: "How do you know?"
"I saw them." She indeed saw them, so it wasn’t a lie.
Mr. He raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"
Mr. He paused for a moment, then shot a sharp look at Chuzheng: "You see alien beings, and you’re still so calm?"
Chuzheng retorted, "Mr. He isn’t exactly flustered either."
Mr. He: "..."
The two silently stared at each other, the air thick with a repressive, stifling tension.
It seemed they were competing to see who could be more patient.
Brother Hui was uncomfortable in such an environment but didn’t dare to speak, only able to tense up his body.
About three minutes later, Mr. He put his hands down and leaned back slightly: "Where did you see them?"
Chuzheng: "Swan Square, Qing Dai."
Qing Dai?
Mr. He had heard this name, a singer who recently became very popular.
Mr. He’s brows furrowed slightly.
Regarding alien civilization, Mr. He, being at the helm, naturally knew about it.
Not only did he know, but they also had ways to deal with it.
Mr. He opened a drawer and took out a box from inside.
The moment Mr. He opened the box, Chuzheng had a sudden urge to curse.
"Message delivered, goodbye." Chuzheng immediately got up and headed out.
Mr. He had already taken out the thing from the box, and Chuzheng’s sudden departure aroused his suspicion: "Please stay, Miss."
I’ll stay, my ass!
Chuzheng didn’t stop, quickly opened the door, and left.
Mr. He’s eyes narrowed; he started the device in his hand and pressed an alarm.
The device in Mr. He’s hand was identical to the one Chuzheng had snatched earlier. Once activated, a moving red dot immediately appeared on the screen.
Mr. He: "!!"
Mr. He grabbed the intercom on the table: "Seal off this area, southeast direction, capture the suspicious target."
-
Half an hour later.
Someone came in to report to Mr. He: "Sir, no suspicious target was seen."
"None?"
Mr. He suddenly recalled a phrase the girl had said — I got here directly, of course, I can leave safely.
Mr. He looked at the locator in his hand. The red dot had disappeared.
An alien being actually dared to come here... and report?
Who gave her the nerve!
Mr. He’s face turned livid, and he gritted his teeth, "Call the special action group over."
"Yes."
The current head of the special action group is Zuo Jiu. When Lou Xing was around, he was just a team leader, but after Lou Xing’s incident, he was promoted to acting executor.
"Mr. He, you called for me?"
Zuo Jiu is a rather young man, but his facial features give off an excessively sharp, unfriendly vibe.
Mr. He briefly narrated the previous events.
Zuo Jiu was clearly aware of the alien lifeform issue and wasn’t surprised.
The main task of the special action group is to investigate and eliminate alien lifeforms that have infiltrated, regardless of their purpose.
Mr. He handed him the locator: "Go investigate thoroughly."
Zuo Jiu: "Yes."
"And focus on that Qing Dai. If confirmed, don’t alert her, just monitor first."
"Yes."
Zuo Jiu left with the device. He looked at the locator in his hand; this was something only Lou Xing had before.
After Lou Xing’s incident, his wasn’t recovered in time either.
When Lou Xing was around, he was overshadowed in everything.
Now...
Zuo Jiu sneered. Although he’s temporary for now, as long as he handles this matter well, the position is definitely his.
-
Chuzheng returned to the hotel, poured herself a glass of water, and gulped it down.
Bam!
The glass clattered against the table, making a crisp sound.
"Why is Miss Chuzheng so angry?"
An abrupt voice sounded. Chuzheng turned sharply, and behind a partition curtain sat a man.
...Good Person Card trying to scare me to death?
"I’m not angry." Chuzheng calmed down the almost-exploding flurry inside her, speaking calmly.
Lou Xing: "..."
She seems really angry, though.
Lou Xing stood up, speaking with precision: "I apologize for intruding without Miss Chuzheng’s permission."
Chuzheng waved indifferently: "Come whenever you want." I’d be angry if you didn’t come.
Lou Xing: "..."
Chuzheng went over to the sofa and sat down: "Are you in trouble?"
Lou Xing nodded: "Yes."
Lou Xing needed to find a place to lay low temporarily.
Other places weren’t safe. He had shuffled through several places and kept getting discovered, so he thought of this place.
Rationality told him he shouldn’t come, but somehow he still ended up here...
As if there was a voice in his heart telling him to come here.
Good to run into trouble! Chuzheng rested her chin on her hand, asking casually: "Is it tricky?"
"A little." Lou Xing didn’t wish to elaborate.
Chuzheng asked a few more questions but got nothing, so she dropped it.
She looked at Lou Xing, her eyes brightening, and took out a paper and pen, quickly sketching on the paper.
When Chuzheng stopped writing, the paper showed a drawing of the locator.
Chuzheng handed the paper to Lou Xing: "Do you recognize this?"
She had snatched her device from Lou Xing, of course, she couldn’t let him see it! Otherwise, she’d be done for!
Lou Xing glanced at it and nodded: "Yes."
"What is it?"
Lou Xing originally didn’t want to answer, but since he wasn’t with the special action group anymore, he said, "Biological analysis device. Why are you asking about this?"
"I saw it at Mr. He’s place."
Lou Xing hesitantly asked: "Who did you say?"
"Mr. He." Doesn’t the Good Person Card have good hearing? I enunciated so clearly!
Lou Xing hadn’t misheard; it was precisely because he heard correctly that he found it unbelievable.
Mr. He was the most powerful person in Area One, the head of the Underground City.
How did she manage to see him?
And to see this device at his place.
Lou Xing finally spoke after a pause: "You’ve met Mr. He?"
"Yes." Chuzheng saw nothing inappropriate about her feat. She pointed to the drawing on the paper and calmly asked him: "What does this thing do?"
