Cast the Net
Li Yao listened in silence, opening his mouth several times but not knowing what to say.
Back in the dorm, I never noticed anything unusual about Shuisheng Ge. He was shy and had a timid smile, which didn't match his robust and muscular build at all. It wasn't until Li Yao discovered the extraordinary side of Earth that he found an extraordinary person hiding in his own dorm! And it was none other than the most unlikely person, Shuisheng Ge! I initially thought Shuisheng Ge was just a lucky kid who had been brought out of the mountains, but little did I know that so many accidents would follow.
Li Yao suddenly thought of Wang Meiling...
Feng Li: "That's right, Wang Meiling was rescued by Shuisheng."
No wonder...
That little brat is exceptionally caring towards Shuisheng, and even possessive of his food! I remember during the Battle of Purple Mountain, there was a rather unrestrained older sister who wanted to have something happen between her and Shuisheng Ge, but that little brat ruined it all.
It seems like Shuisheng Ge has already been reserved!
Tsk! Is this the end of the tunnel for Shuisheng Ge? That adorable little girl is still such Yingying Monster! And now, Cao Erha is truly the only single guy left in Dorm 403 ...
Li Yao thought for a moment and then asked, "Aren't you afraid that this is some kind of the Lotus Sect technique?"
Since the Apocalypse Faction are so inhumane, it doesn't seem impossible that they would sacrifice a training base to send their elite troops into the Wallfacer Organization as moles. Besides, the fact that Shuisheng Ge single-handedly broke through the encirclement seems a bit fantastical!
This isn't some formulaic novel about a returning elite soldier!
Anyone with a bit of sense can detect the conspiracy if they examine it closely.
Feng Li stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray. "At least Shuisheng is fine."
Li Yao nodded.
It's really inappropriate for him to use a chain of suspicion to doubt Shuisheng Ge.
Since Li Yao's lie detector test came back normal, we can now begin the investigation.
Su Province has nearly thirty Prefecture-Level City and four directly administered counties. Each city-level unit has a varying number of county-level units. Each city has about three to five guards stationed there, and the number of wandering knights averages between thirty and fifty. Including the Martial Vanguard, the total number of Wallfacers in Su Province is around 1,500. This does not include the hidden forces and wild supernatural beings! Li Yao was a little surprised when he received these figures.
In some foreign countries, the largest organizations of supernatural beings might only have five or six hundred members, right? But in China! Su Province alone has so many Wallfacers members...
That's a bit scary.
But when he thought about how Su Province ranks among the top five in the country in terms of population, with a resident population of over 80 million, Li Yao felt relieved.
A ratio of one in fifty thousand sounds incredibly small.
—What can such a small number of people do! Because there were many people to be investigated, and the guards and rangers could not leave the camp for too long, Feng Li asked Li Yao to make a few more lie detectors. After everyone underwent and passed the test at the Midnight Bar, Feng Li transferred a Martial Vanguard to be investigated.
Once approved, this Martial Vanguard will serve as a clandestine force to maintain order! In case anything goes wrong, they can be suppressed before the spy causes further damage.
Once everything was in place, the review began.
Li Yao participated in the entire review process as a technical consultant. Guards and wanderers from various places took turns to be reviewed. With sufficient manpower, the entire review could be completed in about two days. Some who lived nearby could complete a round trip in one day, which would not affect the work of the Wallfacer Organization.
On the first day of the investigation, Li Yao and his team discovered fifteen questionable Wallfacers members.
Eleven rangers and four guards.
He remained calm in the face of these Feng Li.
After those abnormal individuals were exposed, some simply resigned themselves to their fate and confessed everything, while others shouted "Injustice!"—"If you have any grievances, go to the organization's Inspectorate Department and tell them."
Big Sis Feng Li assured her, "Don't worry, we won't wrong an innocent person!"
The subtext is: —Don't you guys have any self-awareness? There was one spy who was quite cunning; he successfully deceived the detectives, but the intelligence analysis showed that his thought processes on key issues were extremely intense.
Therefore, it remains questionable! The moment he was informed of the result, that guy decisively launched an attack. If it weren't for the constant vigilance of the Martial Vanguard, that guy might have committed a bloody crime.
After completing the first day's review, some Wallfacers members were absent from the reporting meeting...
After confirming that they had gone missing, the Wallfacer Organization tentatively designated those missing members as "spy suspects" and began issuing arrest warrants!
Li Yao was a little worried. "What if they run away?"
Big Sis Feng Li, said with unusual seriousness, "Where could they run off to? Besides... why should we split a review that can be completed in one day into two days?"
Huh? Li Yao suddenly realized what was going on after being Big Sis Feng Li! They did it on purpose!
This is a long-term strategy to catch a big fish!
It would be a waste to simply pull out the spies planted within the Wallfacer Organization; following the trail of these spies is the way to maximize profits!
The Wallfacers is not just to eliminate the organization's hidden sentries!
They also need to eliminate the hidden positions of hostile factions and organizations within the country! It's all a setup!
Li Yao clicked his tongue. "This kind of scheme definitely wasn't your idea, sister, right?"
Big Sis Feng Li said, "Of course! You people who play tricks all have dirty hearts."
Li Yao: "???"
Why are you even using indirect insults?
He replied, "Can you call something done by smart people dirty? It's called tactics!"
Big Sis Feng Li was about to blurt out, "You guys who play tactics have dirty minds," but then she remembered what Li Yao had just said and shut up.
Wow, bro! You've even learned to use shut-ups!
Feng Li turned to Old He and asked, "Old He, where's my knife?"
Li Yao: "..."
He immediately changed the subject. "By the way, is there some unexpected reason for such a big move this time?"
Feng Li licked his lips. "Yes."
The world is about to change.
Right now, it's just a bit windy.
After completing the investigation at the Wallfacers's affiliated legion's base, the other two Martial Vanguard used the Sky Eye System to locate the missing spies based on the smallest clues and began their covert operations.
The net has been cast; when the time is right, the Wallfacers will naturally reel it in!
Even if we can't wipe out Demons and Monsters within our borders, we must at least make them dare not cause any more trouble.
We can't let them mess things up at certain crucial junctures! The review was completed that very night...
Shuisheng Ge and the others returned to Drum Tower Road. As usual, he was busy until midnight before leaving the bar and going back to school.
Dorm 403 is almost empty now, but Shuisheng Ge still lives there...
Shuisheng Ge took the last bus back to school.
As soon as he got off the bus, he spotted a lotus flower drawn in white chalk on the steps at the edge of the bus stop.
The lotus flower has twenty-four petals, which are abundant.
If you look closely, you'll see that each petal has a specific angle... layered together, they create a charming effect.
Upon seeing the lotus flower,
Shuisheng Ge's resolute and steady gaze gradually became unfocused...
