Chapter 1644: It's all because of misunderstanding

Views:

Lu Zhou never expected that so many things would happen to him when he returned from a not-too-distant trip.

"It's not a trap, it's just that it's just a matter of time." Looking at Lu Zhou, who looked a little ashamed, Wang Peng scratched his head and explained, "If you hadn't disappeared suddenly, Xiao Hong would have mistakenly thought that we had noticed it. When he came to his plan, he decided to strike preemptively. This time bomb may remain buried for a while. It is difficult to say whether the problem broke out in advance is a good thing or a bad thing."

"I remember, but that was all a hundred years ago."

"Because of you." Wang Peng looked at Lu Zhou with a helpless expression on his face, "The deadline for the military exercise is getting closer and closer, and the Qinling has achieved an epoch-making super-light cruise. Considering that the autonomy given to Tiangong City was important Because of the distance, if the problem of super-light communication is solved, it will be a matter of time to take back the autonomy of Tiangong City. Under such circumstances, launching a civil war is his only option, and as one of the chips for victory in the war, Being the first to field warp engines is their only chance of defeating the First Fleet."

"Yes, it's been nearly a hundred years," Wang Peng continued with some emotion, "The mastermind of that incident was a man named Gray Cloak, and Gladstone was Gray Cloak."

"They develop their own armed forces in the asteroid belt by letting the sky pirates go, and use this to contain the military power of regional alliances such as Pan-Asian Cooperation. At the same time, they use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail Pan-Asian Cooperation on the basis of autonomy. They maintain a certain number of starships. It can be said that they have long planned to rebel."

Under the entanglement of the interests of all parties, this civil war that broke out in advance evolved into a melee between the three parties.

If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, this guy had previously issued corporate bonds worth 10 billion credit points, making a fortune in the entire Pan-Asian cooperation and even around the world.

"That is to say... you think I was arrested by people from the city hall?"

In the room of Starry Sky Hotel, Lu Zhou, who was sitting by the bed, pinched his eyebrows with a headache as he saw clothes and belongings being rummaged everywhere, and said.

How could he become the trigger of civil war just by going out

"This is so weird."

"This is so weird."

Wang Peng: "...?"

Lu Zhou: "We are all friends, don't be so polite, just ask if you have any questions."

"... Then, you didn't find me at the city hall, so you found the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? But what does this have to do with the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? Aren't they just a company?"

"That is to say... you think I was arrested by people from the city hall?"

"I remember, but that was all a hundred years ago."

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

"As for the Universe Spirit Foundation..." Wang Peng hesitated and continued, "Although I don't know what they want to do, they seem to be eager to obtain warp technology."

Glancing out the window, Lu Zhou couldn't help but continue, "You know? When I just came back, I was shocked by the big hole in the street. I thought it was a meteorite or something that fell in the city center. , I didn’t expect to find out after asking about it that the 3rd Orbital Airborne Brigade had a fight with the Martian militia.”

If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, this guy had previously issued corporate bonds worth 10 billion credit points, making a fortune in the entire Pan-Asian cooperation and even around the world.

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Don't be so serious... According to you, Gladstone is a senior executive of the Universe Spirit Foundation, so what will happen to his Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group?"

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

Wang Peng gave a bitter smile, paused for a moment, and continued, "Actually, signs of separatism have appeared in Tiangong City a long time ago. We were aware of it before, but we didn't expect that this kind of thinking has penetrated into the top management of Tiangong City, let alone Come to think of it, what Xiao Hong is planning is not only the independence of Tiangong City, but also plans to bring other colonial cities on Mars together to establish a 'regional alliance belonging to the Martians'."

"… Is such that."

"… Is such that."

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

Lu Zhou: "It would be great if other people could think like this."

"Who should I introduce?"

Lu Zhou, who went through the whole story in his mind and tried to restore the whole incident, continued.

"It seems... I'm afraid I've tricked a lot of people this time."

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

However, no one expected that Academician Lu's disappearance was a misunderstanding from the beginning. He was not in the hands of the City Hall or the Universe Spirit Foundation, nor was he protected by the Security Bureau as Mayor Xiao suspected. He just left Tiangong City temporarily because of something.

Looking at Wang Peng with a helpless expression on his face, Lu Zhou, who had finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident, had no more thoughts besides being dumbfounded.

If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, this guy had previously issued corporate bonds worth 10 billion credit points, making a fortune in the entire Pan-Asian cooperation and even around the world.

In the room of Starry Sky Hotel, Lu Zhou, who was sitting by the bed, pinched his eyebrows with a headache as he saw clothes and belongings being rummaged everywhere, and said.

"... Then, you didn't find me at the city hall, so you found the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? But what does this have to do with the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? Aren't they just a company?"

Wang Peng was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Zhou confused and asked.

What's more, they are also related to a cult organization, which makes it even more impossible to allow them to continue to live.

Wang Peng: "...?"

Lu Zhou: "We are all friends, don't be so polite, just ask if you have any questions."

"Because of you." Wang Peng looked at Lu Zhou with a helpless expression on his face, "The deadline for the military exercise is getting closer and closer, and the Qinling has achieved an epoch-making super-light cruise.

Under such circumstances, launching a civil war is his only option, and as one of the chips for victory in the war, Being the first to field warp engines is their only chance of defeating the First Fleet."

Under the entanglement of the interests of all parties, this civil war that broke out in advance evolved into a melee between the three parties.

"It will probably go bankrupt... My colleagues are already cooperating with the staff of the AIIB to liquidate its assets." Wang Peng thought for a while and replied, "After all, even if Gladstone's identity is not considered, they will report it to the municipal government. We can’t just let go of the funds transferred from the agency.”

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

"We thought so at first, but later we discovered that their background was not that simple," Wang Peng sighed and continued, "Do you remember the Northern Lights Cruise?"

However, no one expected that Academician Lu's disappearance was a misunderstanding from the beginning. He was not in the hands of the City Hall or the Universe Spirit Foundation, nor was he protected by the Security Bureau as Mayor Xiao suspected. He just left Tiangong City temporarily because of something.

Wang Peng was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Zhou confused and asked.

"The person in charge of the asset liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group," Lu Zhou continued after a pause, "I want to talk to him about some things."

"I remember, but that was all a hundred years ago."

Wang Peng gave a bitter smile, paused for a moment, and continued, "Actually, signs of separatism have appeared in Tiangong City a long time ago. We were aware of it before, but we didn't expect that this kind of thinking has penetrated into the top management of Tiangong City, let alone Come to think of it, what Xiao Hong is planning is not only the independence of Tiangong City, but also plans to bring other colonial cities on Mars together to establish a 'regional alliance belonging to the Martians'."

"This is so weird."

Wang Peng: "You said that after you left the hotel, you took a car directly to the exit of Tiangong City, but why couldn't we find you even though we searched all the surveillance cameras in the city?"

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

What's more, they are also related to a cult organization, which makes it even more impossible to allow them to continue to live.

"Who should I introduce?"

"Yes, it's been nearly a hundred years," Wang Peng continued with some emotion, "The mastermind of that incident was a man named Gray Cloak, and Gladstone was Gray Cloak."

On the surface, Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group and its boss are just pawns of the foundation. In the eyes of most of the foundation's senior executives, Gladstone's identity is no different from that of Song Yangwei and Morinaga Yuan who have been arrested, and they will not be associated with Gray Cloak, the foundation's BOSS.

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

"But why... did this farce turn into a civil war in the end?"

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Don't be so serious... According to you, Gladstone is a senior executive of the Universe Spirit Foundation, so what will happen to his Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group?"

In the eyes of most of the foundation's senior executives, Gladstone's identity is no different from that of Song Yangwei and Morinaga Yuan who have been arrested, and they will not be associated with Gray Cloak, the foundation's BOSS.

This sentence sounds a bit difficult to pronounce, but with Lu Zhou's logical ability, it is not difficult to understand. What he didn't understand was that if he remembered correctly, the man named Gladstone should be only about thirty years old, and he didn't look like he had lived for more than a hundred years.

Wang Peng is still confused as to what Lu Zhou did when he left Tiangong City during this period. However, Lu Zhou didn't seem to want to answer this question. He just said "I went to meet an old friend" and stopped giving any explanation. It was also inconvenient for him to continue asking, so he had to leave it at that.

The bankruptcy of this company may even develop into a new trigger, leading to a financial tsunami worse than the civil war in Tiangong City.

"As for the Universe Spirit Foundation..." Wang Peng hesitated and continued, "Although I don't know what they want to do, they seem to be eager to obtain warp technology."

He just said "I went to meet an old friend" and stopped giving any explanation. It was also inconvenient for him to continue asking, so he had to leave it at that.

"I know what you are thinking. In fact, I have also had such confusion." As if he had seen through what Lu Zhou was thinking, Wang Peng sighed and continued, "The gray cloak does not refer to a specific person, it is just an identity. , or title. The previous owner of this title passed it along with his account number to Gladstone before his life span came to an end. And now, we have grasped the movements of the entire Foundation, and they still have some doubts about it. No idea.”

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

Wang Peng still can't understand this matter.

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

Lu Zhou never expected that so many things would happen to him when he returned from a not-too-distant trip.

"It seems that you have guessed it. Yes, Europa is just a cover. Their real intention is to establish a permanent and secret space base on the asteroid belt. And the reason why the entire academic conference has been delayed for so many days There is still no progress..." Wang Peng shrugged, "I speculate that it may be intentional, and the purpose is to hold you back and buy time for the Mars industry to master warp technology, and may be able to directly coerce you if necessary. Hand over the technology.”

Lu Zhou: "But why is it this time—"

On the surface, Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group and its boss are just pawns of the foundation. In the eyes of most of the foundation's senior executives, Gladstone's identity is no different from that of Song Yangwei and Morinaga Yuan who have been arrested, and they will not be associated with Gray Cloak, the foundation's BOSS.

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, this guy had previously issued corporate bonds worth 10 billion credit points, making a fortune in the entire Pan-Asian cooperation and even around the world.

Wang Peng immediately said: "Please speak!"

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

just like…

"We thought so at first, but later we discovered that their background was not that simple," Wang Peng sighed and continued, "Do you remember the Northern Lights Cruise?"

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. The more public you are, the less likely you will be suspected. Especially when you are not sure whether other foundation senior leaders are absolutely loyal, this is the safest approach...

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

Logically speaking, with his popularity, it is impossible that not a single person has met him along the way. Not to mention that there are cameras everywhere in Tiangong City. Under the coordination of the central processor, it only takes five minutes to lock in the footage where the target has appeared. It takes less than a minute to build an action path model and place him in Tiangong. All activity routes and destinations in the city are marked.

At least that's what Gladstone thought until he was arrested.

It's like it was deleted by something.

"I remember, but that was all a hundred years ago."

"Yes, it's been nearly a hundred years," Wang Peng continued with some emotion, "The mastermind of that incident was a man named Gray Cloak, and Gladstone was Gray Cloak."

"It's not surprising," Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "From my perspective, a certain little guy was probably worried about my safety, so he did some unnecessary things without telling me."

Wang Peng gave a bitter smile, paused for a moment, and continued, "Actually, signs of separatism have appeared in Tiangong City a long time ago. We were aware of it before, but we didn't expect that this kind of thinking has penetrated into the top management of Tiangong City, let alone Come to think of it, what Xiao Hong is planning is not only the independence of Tiangong City, but also plans to bring other colonial cities on Mars together to establish a 'regional alliance belonging to the Martians'."

"That's it..." Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said, "Can you introduce him to me?"

"They develop their own armed forces in the asteroid belt by letting the sky pirates go, and use this to contain the military power of regional alliances such as Pan-Asian Cooperation.

"… Is such that."

"… Is such that."

Lu Zhou: "But why is it this time—"

Lu Zhou: "You mean, no camera captured me?"

Lu Zhou: "You mean, no camera captured me?"

Wang Peng: "...?"

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

Not only Wang Peng, but also Mayor Xiao, Gladstone and others who had already surrendered could not understand how Lu Zhou managed to slip away from everyone's eyes without anyone noticing.

Maybe...

Lu Zhou: "So the invitation to the academic conference..."

"The person in charge of the asset liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group," Lu Zhou continued after a pause, "I want to talk to him about some things."

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

"It seems... I'm afraid I've tricked a lot of people this time."

Under the entanglement of the interests of all parties, this civil war that broke out in advance evolved into a melee between the three parties.

"Let's not talk about it anymore," he coughed and changed the topic. After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou continued, "Speaking of which... I actually have some things I'm curious about."

"Who should I introduce?"

However, no one expected that Academician Lu's disappearance was a misunderstanding from the beginning. He was not in the hands of the City Hall or the Universe Spirit Foundation, nor was he protected by the Security Bureau as Mayor Xiao suspected. He just left Tiangong City temporarily because of something.

"This is so weird."

"It's not a trap, it's just that it's just a matter of time." Looking at Lu Zhou, who looked a little ashamed, Wang Peng scratched his head and explained, "If you hadn't disappeared suddenly, Xiao Hong would have mistakenly thought that we had noticed it. When he came to his plan, he decided to strike preemptively. This time bomb may remain buried for a while. It is difficult to say whether the problem broke out in advance is a good thing or a bad thing."

Lu Zhou: "It would be great if other people could think like this."

At least that's what Gladstone thought until he was arrested.

"... Then, you didn't find me at the city hall, so you found the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? But what does this have to do with the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund? Aren't they just a company?"

If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, this guy had previously issued corporate bonds worth 10 billion credit points, making a fortune in the entire Pan-Asian cooperation and even around the world.

"Don't worry about this. I believe no one will make things difficult for you." After hesitating, Wang Peng continued, "There is something I still can't figure out. Can I ask you for advice."

How could he become the trigger of civil war just by going out

"That is to say... you think I was arrested by people from the city hall?"

Looking at Wang Peng with a helpless expression on his face, Lu Zhou, who had finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident, had no more thoughts besides being dumbfounded.

What's more, they are also related to a cult organization, which makes it even more impossible to allow them to continue to live.

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

Lu Zhou: "We are all friends, don't be so polite, just ask if you have any questions."

Under the entanglement of the interests of all parties, this civil war that broke out in advance evolved into a melee between the three parties.

How could he become the trigger of civil war just by going out

What's more, they are also related to a cult organization, which makes it even more impossible to allow them to continue to live.

Lu Zhou: "But why is it this time—"

Wang Peng immediately said: "Please speak!"

Not only Wang Peng, but also Mayor Xiao, Gladstone and others who had already surrendered could not understand how Lu Zhou managed to slip away from everyone's eyes without anyone noticing.

Maybe...

Wang Peng: "You said that after you left the hotel, you took a car directly to the exit of Tiangong City, but why couldn't we find you even though we searched all the surveillance cameras in the city?"

However, no one expected that Academician Lu's disappearance was a misunderstanding from the beginning. He was not in the hands of the City Hall or the Universe Spirit Foundation, nor was he protected by the Security Bureau as Mayor Xiao suspected. He just left Tiangong City temporarily because of something.

Wang Peng nodded awkwardly.

Wang Peng still can't understand this matter.

"It seems that you have guessed it. Yes, Europa is just a cover. Their real intention is to establish a permanent and secret space base on the asteroid belt. And the reason why the entire academic conference has been delayed for so many days There is still no progress..." Wang Peng shrugged, "I speculate that it may be intentional, and the purpose is to hold you back and buy time for the Mars industry to master warp technology, and may be able to directly coerce you if necessary. Hand over the technology.”

"That is to say... you think I was arrested by people from the city hall?"

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

"Because of you." Wang Peng looked at Lu Zhou with a helpless expression on his face, "The deadline for the military exercise is getting closer and closer, and the Qinling has achieved an epoch-making super-light cruise. Considering that the autonomy given to Tiangong City was important Because of the distance, if the problem of super-light communication is solved, it will be a matter of time to take back the autonomy of Tiangong City. Under such circumstances, launching a civil war is his only option, and as one of the chips for victory in the war, Being the first to field warp engines is their only chance of defeating the First Fleet."

Not only Wang Peng, but also Mayor Xiao, Gladstone and others who had already surrendered could not understand how Lu Zhou managed to slip away from everyone's eyes without anyone noticing.

"That's it..." Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said, "Can you introduce him to me?"

Under the entanglement of the interests of all parties, this civil war that broke out in advance evolved into a melee between the three parties.

Logically speaking, with his popularity, it is impossible that not a single person has met him along the way. Not to mention that there are cameras everywhere in Tiangong City. Under the coordination of the central processor, it only takes five minutes to lock in the footage where the target has appeared. It takes less than a minute to build an action path model and place him in Tiangong. All activity routes and destinations in the city are marked.

"They develop their own armed forces in the asteroid belt by letting the sky pirates go, and use this to contain the military power of regional alliances such as Pan-Asian Cooperation. At the same time, they use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail Pan-Asian Cooperation on the basis of autonomy. They maintain a certain number of starships. It can be said that they have long planned to rebel."

Lu Zhou, who went through the whole story in his mind and tried to restore the whole incident, continued.

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

"I know what you are thinking. In fact, I have also had such confusion." As if he had seen through what Lu Zhou was thinking, Wang Peng sighed and continued, "The gray cloak does not refer to a specific person, it is just an identity. , or title. The previous owner of this title passed it along with his account number to Gladstone before his life span came to an end. And now, we have grasped the movements of the entire Foundation, and they still have some doubts about it. No idea.”

"I know what you are thinking. In fact, I have also had such confusion." As if he had seen through what Lu Zhou was thinking, Wang Peng sighed and continued, "The gray cloak does not refer to a specific person, it is just an identity. , or title. The previous owner of this title passed it along with his account number to Gladstone before his life span came to an end. And now, we have grasped the movements of the entire Foundation, and they still have some doubts about it. No idea.”

Lu Zhou: "It would be great if other people could think like this."

just like…

On the surface, Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group and its boss are just pawns of the foundation. In the eyes of most of the foundation's senior executives, Gladstone's identity is no different from that of Song Yangwei and Morinaga Yuan who have been arrested, and they will not be associated with Gray Cloak, the foundation's BOSS.

In the room of Starry Sky Hotel, Lu Zhou, who was sitting by the bed, pinched his eyebrows with a headache as he saw clothes and belongings being rummaged everywhere, and said.

It's like it was deleted by something.

This sentence sounds a bit difficult to pronounce, but with Lu Zhou's logical ability, it is not difficult to understand. What he didn't understand was that if he remembered correctly, the man named Gladstone should be only about thirty years old, and he didn't look like he had lived for more than a hundred years.

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

Lu Zhou: "You mean, no camera captured me?"

"The person in charge of the asset liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group," Lu Zhou continued after a pause, "I want to talk to him about some things."

Logically speaking, with his popularity, it is impossible that not a single person has met him along the way. Not to mention that there are cameras everywhere in Tiangong City. Under the coordination of the central processor, it only takes five minutes to lock in the footage where the target has appeared. It takes less than a minute to build an action path model and place him in Tiangong. All activity routes and destinations in the city are marked.

Wang Peng immediately said: "Please speak!"

Lu Zhou never expected that so many things would happen to him when he returned from a not-too-distant trip.

The bankruptcy of this company may even develop into a new trigger, leading to a financial tsunami worse than the civil war in Tiangong City.

Not only Wang Peng, but also Mayor Xiao, Gladstone and others who had already surrendered could not understand how Lu Zhou managed to slip away from everyone's eyes without anyone noticing.

Wang Peng nodded and continued.

Wang Peng still can't understand this matter.

Wang Peng gave a bitter smile, paused for a moment, and continued, "Actually, signs of separatism have appeared in Tiangong City a long time ago. We were aware of it before, but we didn't expect that this kind of thinking has penetrated into the top management of Tiangong City, let alone Come to think of it, what Xiao Hong is planning is not only the independence of Tiangong City, but also plans to bring other colonial cities on Mars together to establish a 'regional alliance belonging to the Martians'."

"It's not surprising," Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "From my perspective, a certain little guy was probably worried about my safety, so he did some unnecessary things without telling me."

Lu Zhou, who went through the whole story in his mind and tried to restore the whole incident, continued.

"It seems... I'm afraid I've tricked a lot of people this time."

"This is so weird."

However, no one expected that Academician Lu's disappearance was a misunderstanding from the beginning. He was not in the hands of the City Hall or the Universe Spirit Foundation, nor was he protected by the Security Bureau as Mayor Xiao suspected. He just left Tiangong City temporarily because of something.

The bankruptcy of this company may even develop into a new trigger, leading to a financial tsunami worse than the civil war in Tiangong City.

Glancing out the window, Lu Zhou couldn't help but continue, "You know? When I just came back, I was shocked by the big hole in the street. I thought it was a meteorite or something that fell in the city center. , I didn’t expect to find out after asking about it that the 3rd Orbital Airborne Brigade had a fight with the Martian militia.”

Lu Zhou, who went through the whole story in his mind and tried to restore the whole incident, continued.

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

"I know what you are thinking. In fact, I have also had such confusion."

"It's not surprising," Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "From my perspective, a certain little guy was probably worried about my safety, so he did some unnecessary things without telling me."

Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group is the company that issued the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund some time ago.

"They develop their own armed forces in the asteroid belt by letting the sky pirates go, and use this to contain the military power of regional alliances such as Pan-Asian Cooperation. At the same time, they use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail Pan-Asian Cooperation on the basis of autonomy. They maintain a certain number of starships. It can be said that they have long planned to rebel."

"The person in charge of the asset liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group," Lu Zhou continued after a pause, "I want to talk to him about some things."

Wang Peng: "...?"

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Don't be so serious... According to you, Gladstone is a senior executive of the Universe Spirit Foundation, so what will happen to his Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group?"

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

"Let's not talk about it anymore," he coughed and changed the topic. After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou continued, "Speaking of which... I actually have some things I'm curious about."

"I know what you are thinking. In fact, I have also had such confusion." As if he had seen through what Lu Zhou was thinking, Wang Peng sighed and continued, "The gray cloak does not refer to a specific person, it is just an identity. , or title. The previous owner of this title passed it along with his account number to Gladstone before his life span came to an end. And now, we have grasped the movements of the entire Foundation, and they still have some doubts about it. No idea.”

"It will probably go bankrupt... My colleagues are already cooperating with the staff of the AIIB to liquidate its assets." Wang Peng thought for a while and replied, "After all, even if Gladstone's identity is not considered, they will report it to the municipal government. We can’t just let go of the funds transferred from the agency.”

"The person in charge of the asset liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group," Lu Zhou continued after a pause, "I want to talk to him about some things."

"This is a long story. To be honest, we were actually quite surprised..."

What he didn't understand was that if he remembered correctly, the man named Gladstone should be only about thirty years old, and he didn't look like he had lived for more than a hundred years.

Lu Zhou: "So the invitation to the academic conference..."

Wang Peng immediately said: "Please speak!"

"… Is such that."

"It's not surprising," Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "From my perspective, a certain little guy was probably worried about my safety, so he did some unnecessary things without telling me."

Wang Peng: "You said that after you left the hotel, you took a car directly to the exit of Tiangong City, but why couldn't we find you even though we searched all the surveillance cameras in the city?"

Looking at Wang Peng with a helpless expression on his face, Lu Zhou, who had finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident, had no more thoughts besides being dumbfounded.

Wang Peng is still confused as to what Lu Zhou did when he left Tiangong City during this period. However, Lu Zhou didn't seem to want to answer this question. He just said "I went to meet an old friend" and stopped giving any explanation. It was also inconvenient for him to continue asking, so he had to leave it at that.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. The more public you are, the less likely you will be suspected. Especially when you are not sure whether other foundation senior leaders are absolutely loyal, this is the safest approach...

Lu Zhou: "We are all friends, don't be so polite, just ask if you have any questions."

It's like it was deleted by something.

Lu Zhou, who went through the whole story in his mind and tried to restore the whole incident, continued.

Wang Peng still can't understand this matter.

Looking at Wang Peng with a helpless expression on his face, Lu Zhou, who had finally figured out the cause and effect of the incident, had no more thoughts besides being dumbfounded.

"It's not a trap, it's just that it's just a matter of time." Looking at Lu Zhou, who looked a little ashamed, Wang Peng scratched his head and explained, "If you hadn't disappeared suddenly, Xiao Hong would have mistakenly thought that we had noticed it. When he came to his plan, he decided to strike preemptively. This time bomb may remain buried for a while. It is difficult to say whether the problem broke out in advance is a good thing or a bad thing."

However, Wang Peng also discovered during the investigation that Lu Zhou had not left even a single frame of footage on Tiangong City's cameras, not to mention the days before his disappearance, or the period before his disappearance.

Wang Peng was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Zhou confused and asked.

Wang Peng immediately said: "Please speak!"

How could he become the trigger of civil war just by going out

Logically speaking, with his popularity, it is impossible that not a single person has met him along the way. Not to mention that there are cameras everywhere in Tiangong City. Under the coordination of the central processor, it only takes five minutes to lock in the footage where the target has appeared. It takes less than a minute to build an action path model and place him in Tiangong. All activity routes and destinations in the city are marked.

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Don't be so serious... According to you, Gladstone is a senior executive of the Universe Spirit Foundation, so what will happen to his Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group?"

"Who should I introduce?"

At least that's what Gladstone thought until he was arrested.
