The Bunker, Eighth Floor.
News soon spread that Wen Xishu, the Bunker's newest legend, had been attacked, and that his assailant was a student from the Three Towers Academy.
Some suspected the Five Elders were involved, but so many witnesses had seen the student Na Gu equipped with a Fine-grade modified telescope.
Na Gu was soon subjected to interrogation.
There was little worth mentioning about the interrogation itself, because the real Na Gu had been knocked unconscious at the time and stuffed beneath his dormitory bed.
Na Gu truly had terrible luck. He woke up only to be accused of attempting to assassinate the Bunker's legend, Wen Xishu.
Although Na Gu was a genius, and although the Bunker Security Bureau and many organizations, such as the Gambling Stone Association, already regarded him as an outstanding talent...
The idea that Na Gu could kill the Strange Tower's foremost explorer was still rather absurd.
Na Gu's reaction reflected that:
"I tried to kill who? Me? Kill Wen Xishu?"
Despite how ridiculous it was, Na Gu was still brutally tortured, then imprisoned.
The Security Bureau needed to determine who had impersonated Na Gu, and why.
The interrogation yielded only one finding: Na Gu was a technology enthusiast who liked tinkering with highly concealed weapons.
For instance, he could disguise a gun as a suitcase. Dismantle the suitcase and reassemble it a different way, and it became a firearm. He also made guns disguised as telescopes and the like.
Na Gu was a craftsman who excelled at making such things.
The Security Bureau could only conclude, helplessly, that someone had taken an interest in Na Gu's technology, which was why the culprit had impersonated him.
The original plan had been to use Na Gu's technology to kill Director Wen outright, then frame Na Gu
