In the library cubicle, Lin Huang immediately isolated the sound and pressed the answer button.
In the video call, Liu Ming looked worried, but after seeing Lin Huang, his eyebrows quickly relaxed.
"Junior, where are you?"
"In the library," Lin Huang replied, then asked knowingly, "Are you back in the college?"
"I'm back, just arrived in the early morning. I planned to travel for a while, but I received a notice from the Coalition government in the early morning, so I rushed back immediately. "Liu Ming nodded, then asked with some concern," Are you okay? "
"I'm fine, it's just that my house was inexplicably demolished," Lin Huang said helplessly. He pretended to be completely clueless about the cause of the matter.
"I know a little about your house …" Liu Ming touched his nose. Lin Huang's house was demolished under his eyes. "Do you have time now? Come to my office. There are some things that are inconvenient to talk about in the communication state. "
"Alright." Lin Huang nodded, hung up the phone, left the library, and flew to the office building.
Two minutes later, Lin Huang appeared in the dean's office.
After Lin Huang entered the room, Liu Ming took out a white sphere. After pressing the button in the middle, a circle of ripples appeared, and soon a transparent bubble covered the entire room.
"Sit." Liu Ming got up and asked Lin Huang to sit on the sofa. He also sat opposite Lin Huang.
"What do you want to talk about? Are you afraid of being heard? "Lin Huang laughed.
"You already know what happened in the early morning, right?" Liu Ming asked.
"The beast tide broke out at the southern border, I know about it, and I even participated in the battle." Lin Huang nodded. "What's wrong? Does this question have anything to do with who demolished my house? "
"In fact, not only did the beast tide break out yesterday, but the city was also attacked. Your house was demolished by one of the attackers. He wanted to capture you alive, "Liu Ming explained.
"Capture me alive? Why? Who's the attacker? "Lin Huang asked two questions, which were exactly what he wanted to know.
"I'm not sure why he wanted to capture you alive, but I was fighting with him at the scene, so I know he came for you. We have some guesses about the attacker's identity, but we're not sure yet. The only thing we're sure of is that he's the leader of one of the top underground organizations. "
"Do you mean that he came to the White Capital just for me?" Lin Huang frowned.
"No, capturing you was just a convenience. Their main goal was the two corpses of the Great Elder and the Second Elder of the Holy Disciples, and they managed to get their hands on the two corpses." Liu Ming did not hide the truth.
"What about the monster horde? Was it done by the same group of people?" Lin Huang asked again.
"The reason for the monster horde was to force the imperial-levels to go to the southern border to stop the monster horde, buying time for their companions in the city to escape," Liu Ming explained.
After listening to Liu Ming's explanation, Lin Huang finally knew what had happened. Initially, he had been wondering what the imperial-levels were trying to do by sneaking into the city. Why would they suddenly activate the monster horde when they had already sneaked into the city and expose their existence? Now, he had a reasonable explanation for all of that.
"Did you catch any of them?" Lin Huang frowned.
"Killed one, captured another, and the rest all escaped. The one who was captured has been identified. She's Hong Zhuang from the Purple Crow. She just became a core member of the Purple Crow. Although she's only on immortal-level rank-9, she's a dangerous woman … "
"Hong Zhuang has been captured …" Lin Huang had mixed feelings when he heard the news. To be honest, he did not like the people from the Purple Crow. However, after spending some time with them, he felt that the woman was not as cruel as he thought. Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that she had fooled him with her acting skills.
"Although the woman's name is Hong Zhuang is only on immortal-level rank-9, she managed to fight Shangguan Feng Ao with the help of some treasures. If Shangguan Feng Ao didn't have a demigod's relic, she might've escaped from the southern border … "Liu Ming was talking about Hong Zhuang and did not notice the change of expression on Lin Huang's face.
"What about the one who died? What's her identity? "Lin Huang asked again. He wanted to confirm if she was from the Scarborough Workshop.
"The one who died wasn't from the Purple Crow. We're still investigating her identity." Liu Ming suddenly recalled that he had called Lin Huang over to ask him something important. "Brother, do you know a woman in a white dress?"
"What do you mean by a woman in a white dress? What does she look like?" Lin Huang knew that Liu Ming had found out about the lies that he had made up last night.
"This woman." Liu Ming projected a picture of Lin Huang. It was the picture that was taken near the Lian Shan outpost.
"Isn't this the woman who's suspected to be a deity on the Hunter Forum?" Lin Huang raised his eyebrow and looked at Liu Ming.
"You don't know her?" Liu Ming asked.
"Of course not. Why do you ask?" Lin Huang denied it directly. It was the plan that he had come up with in Kelly's dimensional space. No matter what Liu Ming or the others asked, he would say that he did not know her and that he had nothing to do with dry cleaning.
"But I met her last night. She was in your dorm. I asked her why she was in your dorm. She said that she's a new teacher and she swapped dorms with you, "Liu Ming explained.
"You must have been tricked. I've never swapped dorms with anyone. I've been staying in the same dorm since the first day I got the dorm key. "Lin Huang shook his head and smiled.
"I didn't think too much about it but I felt that something was wrong after I was done with it. I asked Old Wang and the rest to send me the information of the new teacher. I've checked it several times and there's no such woman." Liu Ming smiled bitterly and nodded. He then looked at Lin Huang in confusion. "But if you don't know her, why is she in your dorm?"
"You're asking me. How would I know?" Lin Huang shrugged.
Liu Ming fell into deep thought again as he did not get an answer from Lin Huang.
"Brother Liu, is this woman really the person who cleared the monster horde?" Lin Huang lowered his voice and asked. He wanted to find out what the Coalition government thought about his fake identity from Liu Ming.
"I'm not sure yet. The Coalition government is investigating this." Liu Ming shook his head and looked at Lin Huang again. "To prevent you from getting involved, this woman lied to me about knowing you. I won't let the Coalition government's investigators know about this. Don't tell anyone about this."
"Understood." Lin Huang nodded. He knew that Liu Ming was doing this to protect him.
"Also, I heard from Deputy Director Zhang that Hong Zhuang was close to you when she was hiding in the Martial Arts Academy. Now that she's been arrested, the Union Government's investigators might question you. Just tell them the truth about Hong Zhuang forcing you to join the Purple Crow. Mr. Fu will get someone to handle the rest for you. "
"Okay, got it." Lin Huang frowned. He did not expect the news that Hong Zhuang knew him to spread so quickly.
