When they arrived at the location where the Divine Arms Battalion had been attacked, the Office of Special Investigations personnel frowned. They looked at the Divine Arms officers who had died tragically in the thorns. "They chased the rabbit all the way here and got attacked by this strange plant?"
Initially, they had wanted to check the wounds to see if there were any abnormalities. After all, this was the first time a plant had attacked a human, so they did not believe it at first.
But the moment they saw the Brambles, they all believed it. The plant looked extremely ferocious, and when they got a little closer, Ren Xiaosu controlled the Brambles to bare their fangs and brandish their claws. It looked extremely terrifying!
The Office of Special Investigations personnel said, "Continue to be stationed here. Don't act on your own."
With that, they left. In fact, they did not have any other good ideas. They could not possibly go through all of them one by one. That would be too much work.
Besides, they had only come here to find the location. Investigating the spy would come later. What they needed to do now was to report the situation back to the Office of Special Investigations.
Ren Xiaosu watched them leave. From the looks of it, the Li Consortium also knew there was a spy in the military, but they probably had not found the main direction of their investigation yet.
After the Office of Special Investigations personnel left, Ren Xiaosu went to meet with Tang Zhou that night as promised. When they arrived, Ren Xiaosu got straight to the point and asked, "Did the Kyung Clan send any snipers here?"
Tang Zhou was taken aback. "No, and we don't have any in our troops either."
"That's strange." Ren Xiaosu wondered, "When I went to look for the remnants of the Divine Arms Battalion, I found about a dozen of them had been killed by the same sniper."
"That's an exaggeration. I don't think there are many snipers with that kind of ability." Tang Zhou analyzed, "That Yang Xiaojin of yours has that kind of ability. Was it her?"
"Ahem." Ren Xiaosu said, "The bullets didn't belong to the Saboteurs, so it shouldn't have been her. Are there any other snipers in the Yang Clan who are more powerful?"
"No," Tang Zhou shook his head. However, he seemed to have thought of something. "Eh, wait, there was one more than ten years ago. Your Yang Xiaojin probably learned spear techniques from him. However, he should be older now. According to blood relations, he should be Yang Xiaojin's uncle, right? His stamina isn't enough for him to move freely on the battlefield, so I don't think it's him. "
"Could it be that other forces have joined the war?" Ren Xiaosu wondered.
"That can't be." Tang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "It's meaningless for the other forces to participate in this war. It's very difficult for the outside forces to gain any benefits from our Southwest. Only the Pyro Company can take advantage of this time to search for supernatural beings in the name of acquiring them."
"Does no one care about them?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Of course. The three consortiums in the Southwest have already reached a consensus to kill anyone from the Pyro Company on sight. However, they've switched to working in the shadows and are only distributing flyers to ordinary people everywhere," Tang Zhou said.
"Are there any supernatural beings they've captured?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.
"There are still some. Many supernatural beings have just gained supernatural powers, but their mentality hasn't changed yet. They want to make money, and the Pyro Company's advertisements are the fastest way for them to earn money." Tang Zhou said, "The Pyro Company is trying to capture people who have just awakened their supernatural powers but don't have any combat experience."
"Alright then." Ren Xiaosu sighed and said, "There really are fools out there."
"But the Pyro Company won't come to the battlefield. They'll only hide in the strongholds," Tang Zhou explained.
Ren Xiaosu was getting more and more certain that the sniper was Yang Xiaojin. Only the bullets did not match up. The rest of the information seemed to point to Yang Xiaojin.
There were many snipers, but there were very few in this world who could kill dozens of Divine Arms officers.
But why did Yang Xiaojin come to the rear of the battlefield alone? Just to destroy the Divine Arms Battalion?
At this moment, Tang Zhou suddenly said, "Mr. Qing Zhen called me to inform me that Qing Yun has sent a group of his subordinates over to serve as ambassadors for the alliance with the Li Consortium. They're here to discuss a collaboration. If you're interested, you can eliminate them."
Ren Xiaosu fell silent for a while. After the Kyung Clan helped him defeat the Divine Arms Battalion, he was going to help Qing Zhen eliminate his dissidents?
Ren Xiaosu asked, "Isn't Qing Yun dead? Why does he continue to kill these people? "
Tang Zhou explained, "After our brigade was disbanded, many of our soldiers were assigned to various units and were often bullied by Qing Yun's subordinates. Furthermore, their bullying methods are extremely despicable. So Mr. Qing Zhen doesn't wish for these people to return to the Kyung Clan's territory. Even if you don't kill them, Mr. Qing Zhen will."
Ren Xiaosu was puzzled. "Then why don't he just kill them?"
"That's because he thinks that if you kill them, it'll count as your contribution to the Li Consortium. The higher your position is, the more benefits it will bring to everyone," Tang Zhou said with a smile.
"How many of them are there?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"More than 400!"
"Then why the hell should I kill them?" Ren Xiaosu said speechlessly, "Should I kill them with my head?"
Tang Zhou suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Qing Zhen said that as long as you're willing, he can help you solve your identity problem."
Ren Xiaosu felt that the battlefield was getting more and more chaotic. What the hell was going on?
But it seemed that there was already a spy on Qing Zhen's side in a high position!
This matter was not as simple as Tang Zhou made it out to be. No matter how lax the management of the troops was, it was impossible to buy such a high position with just money. The Kyung Clan must have someone very powerful in the Li Consortium for them to dare make such a big claim.
Ren Xiaosu wondered, "Aren't you afraid that I'll implicate this mole of yours?"
"Mr. Qing Zhen said that you're much more useful than him now." Tang Zhou said, "Of course, if something really happens to you, we'll arrange for him to leave the Li Consortium in secret to avoid any accidents."
"Alright then." Ren Xiaosu reluctantly accepted it.
Tang Zhou said, "But his evacuation is also a big problem. The Office of Special Investigations is now strictly investigating spies, so he might not be able to get away."
When Ren Xiaosu heard this, his expression turned strange. "Then why don't I help you handle this matter?"
"What?" Tang Zhou was taken aback.
"You might not believe me when I say this." Ren Xiaosu said calmly, "I'm actually still a captain in the Office of Special Investigations."
Tang Zhou was confused. Weren't you here to help the Yang Clan collect samples of the Divine Arms Battalion's nanomachines? How could you still be an officer in the Office of Special Investigations?! Could it be that the Yang Clan had already infiltrated the Office of Special Investigations?!
Ren Xiaosu explained, "I can't explain too much to you because the situation is a little complicated right now."
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu felt he had too many identities, and all of them came from very strange backgrounds.
