There were three people in the room: Gao Qi, Shurian, and Muken.
But after Gao Qi finished speaking, the only one who truly understood what he meant was Gao Qi himself.
Shurian said in shock, "To save me?"
Gao Qi said rather helplessly, "That's right. When I heard the name 'Disaster Relief Association' in the salt mine, I immediately knew it was your doing. Because I knew that only you, only you, would treat the Desolate Dwellers as disaster relief. But Professor, it's fine if you want to help the Desolate Dwellers, but why did you have to give it a name that's suicidal?"
Shurian's expression became serious.
Gao Qi continued, "At that time, I knew that since the name 'Disaster Relief Association' had spread to the salt mine, the city would soon know. Professor, you should know how Morning Sun City treats the Desolate Dwellers. Just because of the name 'Disaster Relief Association', the city would definitely send out an army to find you no matter where you are. You know this better than anyone, so … why did you do this?"
Shurian smiled and nodded. "Go on. What did you do after that?"
Gao Qi spread his hands. "What else could I do? I suppressed this matter. The person in charge of the salt mine now is Wang Laohu. He's one of my people. I originally wanted him to shut up and cover up the name, but after I saw Muken, I felt that this matter could no longer be hidden."
Muken seemed to be a little frightened. He looked at Gao Qi and said, "Why? Did I say or do something wrong? "
Gao Qi shook his head and said helplessly, "It's not your problem. It's Professor Su's problem. He's intentionally spreading the news about the establishment of the Disaster Relief Association, right?"
Shurian said softly, "That's right."
Gao Qi said with slight annoyance, "Then what's the point of hiding it? I can make Wang Laohu shut up, but can I make all the Desolate Dwellers shut up? It's not like Morning Sun City doesn't have eyes and ears outside the city. If Morning Sun City finds out about the Disaster Relief Association and sends troops to eliminate it, they won't even wait a month. "
Shurian thought for a moment and said, "According to the range and speed of my spread, Morning Sun City should react in about a month."
Gao Qi was stunned. "You knew? Why did you do this if you knew? "
Shurian waved his hand and said, "Tell me what you did first."
Gao Qi said unhappily, "I wanted to save you. I couldn't let Morning Sun City send troops to attack you. so I thought about what I could do. After much thought, I felt that muddying the waters was the only choice."
"Muddying the waters?"
"Yes. First, I found a suitable target, the Liu family. Because Liu Qiang wanted to kill me, Huang Fei, and Han Ruofeng, I could easily persuade the two of them to work with me and push Zhang Lin to the top, making the ability users become the third force in Morning Sun City. This was the first step.
"Second, I used the salt mine as bait and used the name of the Disaster Relief Association as a reason to provoke the Liu family to send troops outside the city to seize the salt mine. First, I lured the tiger away from the mountain.
"Third, if my plan succeeded, I would create a false impression that the name of the Disaster Relief Association was made up by me to eliminate the Liu family. The existence of Muken and the activities of the Disaster Relief Association were all faked by me to make Morning Sun City focus all their attention on me. However, there was a slight deviation in this step, so I could only act personally and kill the City Guard controlled by the Liu family. This prematurely exposed my flawed strength."
Sighing softly, Gao Qi continued, "But now, there are no obstacles in completing the third step. Now, everyone knows that I'm a very strong and talented ability user who likes to play tricks. My opinion will determine the direction of Morning Sun City. Therefore, the third step can be said to have been completed in advance."
Shurian was shocked again. "I know what you're trying to do. You want to turn the existence of the Disaster Relief Association into a part of your scheme so that Morning Sun City will think that the association doesn't exist. If it works, this level of active exposure can indeed fool everyone. But the question is, how did you become a super talented esper?"
Gao Qi spread his hands and said, "Let's not talk about me for now. Let's talk about you. If I want to really complete the third step, I have to find you and your Disaster Relief Association. Only with your cooperation can my plan be considered flawless. Professor, what you need to do next is to quickly change the name of the Disaster Relief Association. No, it's best if it doesn't have a name. You can move around and do anything, but just don't show off such a conspicuous name."
Shurian was silent for a moment. Then, he shook his head gently and said, "No, the disaster relief association must exist, and it must exist openly and openly!"
Gao Qi was shocked. The moment he heard the name of the Disaster Relief Association, he had started to plan. He had taken a big detour and used the Liu family as a sacrifice to save the Disaster Relief Association. Now that he was so close to success, Shurian actually disagreed?
"Professor …"
Gao Qi sighed helplessly. Then, he said helplessly, "That's why I don't like the way idealists do things. I can only say that you're digging your own grave by doing this."
"A single spark can start a prairie fire, but someone has to light this fire. Who will do it? Me! "
Shurian's face was full of the glory of a martyr. He pointed at himself and said firmly, "I've lit a single spark to light up the dark night, but that's not enough. I want to set up a flag. I want to tell all the disaster victims in the Wilderness that they have hope, that they have a future."
Gao Qi was a little angry. He raised his voice and said loudly, "But spitting in the city can extinguish your little spark! I don't object to you wanting to start a prairie fire, but can't you keep a low profile? Can't you at least wait until the spark has turned into a bonfire? Can't you at least wait until the spit in the city can't extinguish it? "Shurian was silent.
This was the first time he had seen Gao Qi so angry and lose his composure in front of him.
Gao Qi was indeed very angry. He raised his arm and pointed at Muken. His face was full of disbelief as he said, "You let him act so brazenly under the banner of the disaster victims' relief organization. Can your little spark really burn anything? You're the one who taught me to protect myself. You're the one who taught me to take things slowly. Why don't you understand it yourself? "
Shurian sighed softly. Then, he said helplessly, "Very good. You still remember what I taught you. But … there's no time. Gao Qi, there's no time!"
Gao Qi's face became serious. He said in a low voice, "What do you mean? Is there … something wrong with your body? "
Shurian shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm running out of time, it's that the disaster victims are running out of time. According to the way the disaster victims live, there's no time for them to take things slowly!"
After saying that with a sad face, Shurian slowly said to the shocked Gao Qi, "Do you think I'm an idealist? Actually, I'm not. I'm a realist, a desperate realist. Gao Qi, there's no time. I just want to do my part to save as many disaster victims as possible before the arrival of the Third Catastrophe! "
