The muzzle of the gun moved down an inch, and Wang Peng impatiently pulled the trigger.
"Haha, what are you pretending to do now?" Xiao Hong looked at Wang Peng coldly and said in a voice like a poisonous snake, "Who can know better than you what he does-"
Thinking of this, Xiao Hong's face suddenly showed an angry expression, and he gritted his teeth and said.
"This information... is enough to reduce my sentence by how many years?"
"Holy shit! Why are you pretending to be stupid?! I still want to know where that guy has gone! Wait, who are you? You are definitely not a Pan-Asian cooperator... Academician Lu should have been transferred away by them! Gladstone! It's you! It's you, isn't it! I knew you cultists couldn't be trusted!"
Looking at Wang Peng cautiously, Xiao Hong swallowed and continued.
Could it be that…
Wang Peng glanced at the two of them and continued to ask.
"They want to leave us alone..."
"Hand over Academician Lu."
Even if he looks back on this troubled life many years later, Xiao Hong will never forget what happened that day.
Gladstone
If he remembered correctly, wasn't this guy just an ordinary entrepreneur? It seems that he is the manager of the Nanmen II Exploration and Colonization Fund, and he is currently raising funds for the "Noah's Ark" project.
"It's over... everything is over."
"That was last month... Gladstone came to me and asked me to make it easier for him to approve his 'Noah's Ark' plan. When I just got the plan, my first reaction was this special Everything is stuff like that, but I suddenly thought that building such a large starship can drive the shipbuilding industry of the entire Tiangong City, and this is just an opportunity for us. And the warp technology they need happens to be something we also have. want to."
Wang Peng said in a cold tone.
In this case, those people can only be those sent by Gladstone to silence them...
Regardless, this has happened.
"Academician Lu?"
After confirming the bodies on the ground, Wang Peng moved the muzzle of his gun slightly, pointed it at Xiao Hong and his "dog-headed military advisor" Gao Ruiming, who were sitting behind the bunker, and said in a cold voice.
Cultist
Wang Peng: "Actually, part of this money was transferred to the City Hall's account as a 'war debt' to raise military expenses?"
"Are you saying that the well-known foundation for the exploration of the Nanmen 2 Extraterrestrial Galaxy is a product of the Soul of the Universe Foundation?" The gun was pointed at Xiao Hong's head again. Wang Peng continued in an interrogating tone, "That Grace Dun, are they their white gloves? Or are they simply the top brass of the Universe Spirit Foundation?"
Slowly, he squeezed out a sentence from his throat.
"Then we discussed it. First, we invited Lu Zhou to Tiangong City in the name of academic exchange, and then the city hall gave the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund as a credit endorsement, and used pan-Asian cooperation to support the colonies in financial policy. preferential conditions, issuing pre-sale shipping tickets and corporate bonds. But in fact-"
"Later we went to his room, and it turned out that the person was not in it at all, and a few pieces of clothes were missing. Later we tried to investigate the surveillance, but since he left the hotel, he seemed to have disappeared from the world. Not even a single frame of surveillance was found! We suspected at that time whether you had already focused on our plan and transferred him in advance."
"I am interrogating you now, not you asking me," Wang Peng looked at him with cold eyes and continued, "I advise you to answer this question carefully, because it is related to whether you can get a chance to reduce your sentence in court. "
After hesitating for a while, Xiao Hong finally nodded awkwardly.
"Putting these trivial matters aside for now, let's talk about where Lu Zhou is."
However, for some reason, when he said these words, he felt a sense of relief in his heart.
It is almost foreseeable. When the truth comes out, a financial tsunami will be inevitable...
"I understand! That despicable villain! Those people are not some pan-Asian cooperation special forces at all, they are the killers they sent to silence me! These idiots actually stabbed me in the back! Listen, your Academician Lu is not here If we are not protected by your people, we can only be in the hands of the Foundation!"
Hearing the bang of the gunshot and looking at the concrete fragments splashing on the side of his pants, Xiao Hong was so frightened that he subconsciously shrank back and screamed with panic on his face.
Although I want to deny it, I have already reached this point and there is no way to hide this little secret.
Less than half a minute after he shouted the words "Give me freedom or give me death," he raised his hands without hesitation as he looked at the man walking past the corpses.
Although he had a lot of confusion in his heart and wanted to ask, the impatient look on the face of the man in front of him made him afraid to say another word of nonsense.
Having worked with Gladstone for so many years, he knew all about the things that guy had done, and he knew even more how cruel and dirty those people's methods were.
This name sounds so familiar...
Just when Xiao Hong was cursing, an explosion suddenly came from the ceiling of the underground garage.
"I said… "
"Don't act stupid for me."
"It's not my idea..." Xiao Hong whispered this sentence and looked at Gao Ruiming, who was sitting next to him with an awkward giggle, "I am only responsible for signing..."
The Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund hooked up with the rebels in Tiangong City, and also transferred the funds raised for the colonization of Proxima b to the account of the Tiangong City Hall. Maybe in the end, not to mention building a "Noah's Ark", the huge fines and the departure of informed management may cause the company to declare bankruptcy directly.
It is always better to fall into the hands of pan-Asian cooperation than to fall into the hands of those cultists.
Lifting his dull eyes and looking at Wang Peng with a solemn expression, Xiao Hong said in a weak voice.
Staring at the ceiling, Gao Ruiming muttered quietly.
After taking one look at this guy's ugly appearance, Wang Peng grinned disdainfully, with a hint of mockery in his tone.
"Maybe twenty years, maybe thirty years, the key depends on how big of a fish we can catch by following the clues you provide."
Although it is far-fetched, it is not completely impossible...
Looking at Xiao Hong who was almost going crazy, Wang Peng frowned slightly.
etc…
Facing the black muzzle, Xiao Hong felt that all the courage in his body had been drained.
By now, Xiao Hong had basically been able to conclude that the person standing in front of him was not a cultist, but an agent from the Security Bureau. As for the unknown armed forces who attacked the city hall—Wang Peng didn't seem to know them.
"No, don't shoot! I surrender, I surrender! I'll give you whatever you want! Don't kill me!"
"Don't rush to be happy yet."
"If you use our money to build guns and attack us, you can really do anything."
"You still have to discuss it with the judge for a specific sentence of several hundred years."
After hearing this answer, Xiao Hong gradually relaxed, and his tense shoulders relaxed a little.
A possibility suddenly appeared in Wang Peng's mind.
"Lu Zhou... I don't know, I really don't know," Xiao Hong explained hurriedly as the man in front of him looked more and more dangerous, "I admit, we are indeed looking for him! His warp speed The engine is the key to our victory! And according to our expert guesses, the hyperspace jump should be able to be interfered with in some way. As long as we master the technology of interfering with the hyperspace channel, we can prevent the Pan-Asian cooperation fleet from sailing directly to us The top of my head…”
Hearing the intensive intrusion of footsteps and the sudden sporadic gunshots, a look of despair appeared on the faces of Xiao Hong and Gao Ruiming.
Looking at Wang Peng's eyes indicating to continue, he tried to calm down the tremor in his voice and continued.
"Yes, as you can see..."
