Unsurprisingly, after Lian Runing's communication with Kelly ended, she was indeed asked by the official for questioning, but the other party only asked for a routine question. After all, everyone knew that she had been kidnapped by Kelly, and this time she took the initiative to ask her. The official account of Kelly's contact with her.
"I think she may be interested in you, and she will definitely contact you again in the future, when... "
Lian Runing understood what the other party meant, she nodded: "If she still contacts me, then I will inform you as soon as possible."
When she left the questioning room, she saw Hao Jian leaning against the wall with her arms crossed, looking very calm, but her occasionally flat lips showed her displeasure.
"Aren't you going to be busy? Why are you back?" Lian Runing asked.
"I heard someone was trying to pry my corners, so I'll have to come back and fix the walls."
Lian Runing hummed: "You're so worried about me?"
"It's not a matter of worrying about you, it's just that this vinegar is on your lips and you have to eat it."
Lian Runing pinched Hao Jian's ear and said, "Eat more, I heard that being jealous can help you live longer."
"You are engaged in scientific research, how can you say such things that are not scientific at all!"
Lian Runing couldn't help laughing. It was obvious that Hao Jian didn't say any jokes, but she could laugh from the bottom of her heart... She wrapped Hao Jian's arm and left here while discussing what to eat at night with her.
…
When the guards went to Tucker's prison according to the clues provided by Kelly, they were empty. There were no figures of Tucker, Shen Fu and others. Instead, they found a dozen corpses in a warehouse. To identify the relics on the body, it is very likely that they are the missing apostles!
This also confirms the speculation that these apostles were most likely killed by Tucker, while others do not know, but the "special response team" has relevant information. If it is confirmed that they were killed by Tucker, it means that the apostles were killed by Tucker. Killing an apostle would be more beneficial than killing ordinary people.
Because of this incident, Wen Shanggao organized an intelligence team to investigate the various apostles, and without exception, those low-level apostles didn't know the benefits of killing the apostles at all.
As for those high-level apostles, if they deliberately concealed it, no one else would be able to ask anything, so just observation is enough. Even if they knew about it, as long as they had no evil thoughts in their hearts, they would not attack their companions.
After Wen Shanggao reported these matters to the big figures, he didn't plan to announce them. After all, although the announcement could arouse the apostles' vigilance and avoid being killed by the same kind, it would also make those apostles who didn't know about it at the same time. There will be evil thoughts, which will betray the Apostolic Association and be a disaster.
After the forensic team confirmed that the decomposing bodies were Ding Gunian and others, Wen Shanggao was basically certain that their previous speculation was correct.
After Wen Shanggao put the documents back in the document bag, he leaned heavily on the back of the chair, his already frowning frown turned into Sichuan characters.
He felt as if he was very close to the truth, but he was always separated by a layer of mist.
Long ago, when those big men were arguing about how to arrange the apostles, he felt something was wrong. After all, the normal thinking is to take measures to appease the apostles and reach an agreement with them on the one hand, and on the other hand, they should not give up continuing to investigate the origin of the apostles.
But the final decisions of those big men were out of this normal thinking mode, so he decided to get rid of the orders of those big men and act on his own.
If they all operate within a frame, then he has to jump out of that frame.
He thought it was difficult to do, after all, it seemed that no one but himself noticed the abnormality. Even if the "special response team" was acting according to his orders, the results were always unsatisfactory.
Fortunately, one of the seedlings he excavated in the early days eventually grew into a big tree, and then began to bloom beautiful flowers. He believed that this tree would one day bear the fruits he hoped to see.
Originally, when he discovered Hao Jian, he only regarded her as a very smart and sensitive person, but what he didn't expect was that she could hide her identity from his eyes for so long. It was only after they had been working together for nearly a year that he had doubts from Hao Jian's deliberately exposed flaws.
The seeds of doubt were planted. In order to verify his ideas, he personally went to collect relevant information about Hao Jian, and at the same time kept testing Hao Jian...
Although he has no conclusive evidence yet, it doesn't matter, Hao Jian is a very good pawn. Since she deliberately revealed flaws, it must be because he is trustworthy, or she is also using him.
He wanted to know the benefits of killing each other between the apostles, but it was a pity that Hao Jian didn't touch the lives of living people, so he probably wouldn't know. It is also impossible for him to involve innocent apostles in order to conduct experiments, which is against his principles.
Before he talked to Hao Jian, he decided to go to Lian Runing first.
…
After the announcement that Chairman Wen was going to the Science Center to listen to the report on the scientific research work, the Science Center and even the island of the university town were busy. out of so many people
However, when Wen Shanggao arrived, the Refugee Management Office of University City Island, the relevant leaders of the Science Center, and the officers of the nearby military factory all appeared, because according to the itinerary, Wen Shanggao would also visit the military factory.
In the past, there was no longer a situation where dozens of people would follow him when he went out, and now he has only followed a dozen people, and 70% of them are still Wen Shanggao's bodyguards.
Everyone knows that Chairman Moon is stern, so he is also very serious when introducing the situation of the refuge to his side.
Wen Shanggao mostly listened to what others said, occasionally asked some questions, and after walking for half an hour, he said, "Go to the Science Center."
The group walked to the science center again. Wen Shanggao first went to inspect some important experimental departments and listened to the research progress reports of the researchers before heading to the more important laboratories.
When he walked to the water quality research laboratory, he did not enter the laboratory, but only checked the situation in the laboratory through the monitor in the office area outside.
"I remember that it was your laboratory that studied the effect of Q virus on water quality?" Wen Shanggao asked.
The academician here immediately said: "Yes, it's our researcher Leyan, she is busy inside now..."
The academician who is over 500 looks a little nervous and embarrassed. Without him, Le Yan doesn't care about the leader's inspection at all. She will not stop her work because of someone's arrival and go out to make a face in front of the big leader. cooked.
Wen Shanggao nodded, showing no joy or anger on his face.
Wen Shanggao asked about things in related fields. Although the academician could answer, after all, Le Yan was responsible for many things, and only she could report these things in more detail. He secretly wiped off his sweat and let Le Yan slip out.
Le Yan was writing a report and was very dissatisfied after being interrupted. However, for this sake, if she didn't go out, she would be ignorant.
Wen Shanggao stayed here for half an hour, and finally asked Leyan: "Now we have built a research center at sea, it will be safer, and it will also be convenient for researchers to take samples and come back for research, but it has just been built. There is still a shortage of manpower, I wonder if this lesbian is interested in going there?"
Le Yan said indifferently, "Accept the arrangement of the organization."
Le Yan really doesn't care about this. After all, her research here has reached a bottleneck, which is not conducive to her continuing research and gaining experience. If you change the place, there may be more research directions.
Wen Shanggao smiled, but didn't say that he would transfer her there immediately.
After leaving here, he went to the geological environment research laboratory where Lian Qingmiao was located. The reason why he spent so much time in other laboratories was to avoid suspicion when he met Lian Runing later.
Lian Runing had long been notified that Chairman Wen was coming to guide her work. She wondered if that was Hao Jian's immediate boss? Although they had contacted before, it was the first time in such a public occasion. And she felt that in order for her and Hao Jian to keep a low profile, it would be better if she didn't know Wen Shanggao.
Just thinking about it, Shen Kai called her nervously and excitedly: "Junior sister, here we come!"
Wen Shanggao stopped at the door, glanced at her, and immediately felt that this research laboratory seemed to be more lonely than the water quality research laboratory next door. And if he remembered correctly, Lian Qingmiao was the person in charge of this laboratory.
"Cough cough, Comrade Lian's experiment is at the most important juncture, so he appointed his student and the associate researcher of this laboratory, Comrade Xiao Lian, to report the progress of scientific research to Comrade Chairman."
Wen Shanggao nodded: "It doesn't matter, let's find a place to sit down and get to know it slowly."
Everyone didn't find it strange, after all, Wen Shanggao had been standing for a long time just now, and now he was tired, and it was understandable that he wanted to sit down.
"I heard that the crops in various places are growing well. This is all your credit."
"Comrade Chairman has won the prize. This is the result of everyone's hard work and overcoming difficulties!" Shen Gai said in Mandarin.
Wen Shanggao smiled. When everyone breathed a sigh of relief, he went to inspect the crop experiment planting area of the Science Center. At the same time, he found a reason to separate everyone to another area, and he only needed to give him the training. Just explain.
At this moment, Lian Runing also noticed that something was wrong, but she couldn't think that the other party found her purpose, maybe it was related to Kelly
"I have some problems that I need to find answers to. Hao Jian may not know these answers, but you may know them."
Lian Runing was secretly surprised and worried that he was doubting Hao Jian's identity, but he didn't show it on his face: "What does the chairman think I know?"
"We couldn't catch Tucker, and we didn't catch Kelly at the same time, but we found the bodies of Ding Gunian and others who were missing." Wen Shanggao looked at the large experimental field in front of him with deep eyes, "Kelly will contact you. , and said what we want to know, Tucker is very clear, but I think that you, who have been with Kelly for three days, must also know."
Lian Runing's heartbeat accelerated, and she became nervous: "What is the chairman of the committee talking about? I don't know."
"You don't have to lie, because as far as I know, a woman like Kelly doesn't normally have murderous intentions towards women... Unless, of course, someone who is also a woman wants to conspire against her. So after she held you hostage, she could After getting out, she would probably let you go, but you stayed with her for three days before being rescued, and she took the initiative to contact you, I thought you had a chance to leave at the time, but you didn't, why?"
Lian Runing opened her mouth, and she found that she was still a little tender in front of Wen Shanggao.
That's right, how can someone who can climb to such a high position not be cunning and deep-minded? ! Moreover, when she was watching the news, she learned that Wen Shanggao had a background in reconnaissance, and his observation skills were better than ordinary people.
"What does the chairman want to know?"
Wen Shanggao hooked the corner of his mouth: "How much do you know about the mutual killing of the apostles? How much do you know about the apostles?"
Lian Runing's heart turned back and forth. On the one hand, she wondered whether Wen Shanggao wanted to use her to inquire about Hao Jian's identity, and on the other hand, she wondered what effect Wen Shanggao would get by letting Wen Shanggao know about these things.
After some weighing, she answered cautiously: "What I know is what I figured out by myself, and it's not worth taking seriously."
"Just say it, I have my own thoughts."
Lian Runing chuckled helplessly, she finally accepted the result she deduced, and changed to Wen Shanggao, after he understood, could he still be so calm
"This world exists because of the apostles, and we are all NPCs, and everything is only for the upgrade of the apostles."
