Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm-Chapter 541 - 360, Real vs Fake Knight Thief, Mr. X walked into a trap_2
"We conducted an emergency investigation and found that Lady Kalaya drove a Ladybird luxury car into the underground parking lot, took the elevator to the sixth floor of Building 11, and then went to the restroom before disappearing."
The conference room’s large screen timely displayed the relevant footage.
Only Lady Kalaya could be seen walking elegantly into a ladies’ restroom.
There were no cameras installed inside the restroom, so this was all that could be seen.
The screen flickered and showed a group of heavily armed soldiers cautiously entering the restroom with their weapons raised.
They checked every corner of the restroom but didn’t see a single person.
Kurt voiced his opinion: "It seems Lady Kalaya has a significant issue; she is the prime suspect in this monster attack incident."
This perspective is not difficult to understand.
Lady Kalaya’s behavior could entirely be described as "sneaky."
The monster attack only happened after she entered the Headquarters.
This indeed arouses suspicion.
Poor Lady Kalaya, who did nothing, found herself unjustly blamed.
Another high-ranking official offered a hypothesis: "Perhaps Lady Kalaya has mastered some method to create this bloodthirsty monster."
Kurt agreed: "It’s possible."
The curly-haired intelligence officer continued to present the relevant situation: "We reviewed more footage and discovered another strange thing.
"The day before yesterday, a Xia Descendant woman named ’Zhang Hehua’ walked into Lady Kalaya’s residence in the morning and never came out.
"This woman came to train in baseball ten years ago, obtained a Federation green card through marriage eight years ago, and is currently renting an apartment in the East Fifth District. Her current economic situation is not good.
"Logically, Lady Kalaya and Zhang Hehua’s social circles are completely different, and they should have no possible channels to know each other.
"Yet, when Zhang Hehua twisted the door handle of Lady Kalaya’s house, the main door opened immediately. After Zhang entered, Lady Kalaya did not call the police.
"We concluded that Zhang Hehua was most likely a guest that Lady Kalaya invited over, but we don’t know why Lady Kalaya did so.
"Today, exactly one minute before the attack on Red Shark Company, the security door of that house was suddenly knocked off, shattering into fragments on the street as if something had burst out." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
One of the attendees immediately said, "If my guess is correct, this poor woman named Zhang Hehua is probably the prey selected by Lady Kalaya.
"This woman employed some evil method to transform Zhang Hehua into a monster, which is why their appearances are so similar.
"After Lady Kalaya arrived at Headquarters, the monster suddenly lost control and escaped from the residence. Seeing the unfavorable situation, Lady Kalaya went into hiding."
The logic of these statements seems quite tight, and the cause-and-effect relationship is seamless.
Many people voiced their agreement.
"Makes sense!"
"I think so too!"
Even Deputy Minister Kurt nodded slightly.
No one knew that the Lady Kalaya they saw as the mastermind was actually the pitiable victim.
While the supposed victim Zhang Hehua nearly suffocated Lady Kalaya with a towel and rested in the latter’s house for a day and a night.
Another participant asked a key question: "Why did the monster attack places including Red Shark Company?"
This question implied an understanding—the questioner knew there was some connection among the attacked locations.
This is actually a public secret.
The curly-haired intelligence officer answered: "Based on the information we have, Zhang Hehua borrowed money from a certain gang a while ago, and now the gang is pursuing her debt, so the monster’s attack on Red Shark Company was likely an act of revenge."
The questioner uttered "Oh" and softly said, "No wonder."
Others’ expressions turned subtle, tacitly ignoring the issue.
Because from this statement, it’s not hard to deduce— the gang had already marked Zhang Hehua, planning to kidnap and sell her.
Immigrants like Zhang Hehua, without any support, naturally become the gang’s favorite prey.
Even if she gets sold, no one would pay attention, let alone stand up for her.
And knowing the gang intended to sell her, it’s normal for Zhang Hehua, after becoming a monster, to take revenge on various gangs, isn’t it?
One attendee whispered, "The gang has caused too many troubles."
Kurt frowned, his tone carrying a warning: "Gang-related matters are not on today’s agenda."
The person who had spoken quickly shut their mouth.
In fact, everyone present was well aware that the human trafficking network comprised of numerous gang forces was secretly controlled by the Mount of Gods.
From the Federation’s official standpoint, gangs have played a significant role.
First.
Gangs have trafficked a large number of people, providing an endless supply of transformation test subjects for the Mount of Gods.
The Federation’s officials couldn’t personally engage in such activities, but entrusting it to the gangs seemed just right.
The best part is, if trouble arises, they can simply order the gangs to offer a few scapegoats to quell public anger.
If it weren’t for the gangs, the Federation could never have so many Modified Weapons and would be far behind Eastern Great Xia in the Supernatural Domain.
The Federation’s internal evaluations have concluded that it now possesses a large number of Modified Weapons, and its strength is at least eighty percent that of Great Xia.
