A few minutes later …
"So, you're the one behind the Tragedy of the Pinnacles?"
After listening to Hella's report on the interrogation results, Han Xiao could not help but size up Sorokin in surprise. His eyes were filled with a 'so you're good at stirring up sh * t too' look.
"I've changed many identities, and I've been trying to reduce the number of Beyond Grade As in the universe. But as you can see, the Holy Covenant and the Underworld found a way to revive. This path won't work."
Sorokin looked like he had nothing left to live for.
After entering the Underworld, he was like a grasshopper on a string. There were no more secrets that he could not reveal. Furthermore, Hella could control him at any time.
Reducing the number of Beyond Grade As was his idea in the past, but the appearance of the Holy Covenant and the Underworld gave the dead Beyond Grade As a chance to revive. He knew that this plan would not succeed, so he was forced to change his mind.
Sorokin revealed the other identities he had used in the past and told Han Xiao about how he had secretly promoted the Tragedy of the Pinnacles. He was a smart person. No matter how unwilling he was, he knew that this kind of past could become a time bomb, so he took the initiative to tell Han Xiao about it.
If he hid it, although he would have a chance to screw Han Xiao over, they were bound together for good or ill. If the Underworld was damaged, he would be implicated too. As the old saying went, since he could not resist, he might as well enjoy it. The Underworld Hero Spirits at least had a near-endless lifespan. Although it was not what he really wanted, it was not bad either. He had no choice but to protect this remaining benefit.
After hearing Sorokin's various identities, Han Xiao was shocked. "So, these identities are all yours. You really want to see the world burn."
Originally, he was still thinking about how to blame Sorokin for Gaud's death. Now, it was much easier. Sorokin had so many identities and had a record of guiding the Tragedy of the Pinnacles. He had a motive now!
As for clues and evidence, with the main character, Sorokin here, there was no need to worry about not being able to get them. He was not afraid that Sorokin would not cooperate.
Han Xiao temporarily suppressed this thought and changed the topic. "Let's put this matter aside for now. Tell me the resources in your hands, such as secret stashes, internal intelligence of the Limitless Financial Group, or trade secrets … If you are honest, I will be lenient. If you are not, I will be strict. If you cooperate, I can leave some for you."
Sorokin knew that Han Xiao was interested in his wealth and wanted to squeeze all the benefits out of him. He was unwilling, but Hila was forcing him to tell the truth, so he had no choice but to reveal everything about his family.
Han Xiao noted them down and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Not bad. You've accumulated quite a few good things. Apart from technology, blueprints, and knowledge, you've actually secretly collected eight Universal Treasures …"
If not for Jayz's treasure, the number of Universal Treasures in stock would be about the same.
Being rich was indeed amazing!
As for the Limitless Financial Group, this was a huge cake. Although Han Xiao wanted to take it all for himself, he had to restrain his appetite. Otherwise, it would arouse even greater suspicion.
Sorokin's' absconding with the money 'would definitely cause the Limitless Financial Group to suffer heavy losses and be eaten up by a large number of organizations. Han Xiao did not plan to enter the scene in advance. He was prepared to let the Germinal Financial Group and the other organizations take action together after the matter was exposed. It was enough to ensure that they would get a share of the cake.
However, the 'escape route' that Sorokin secretly left behind when he transferred the Limitless Financial Group's funds would benefit him, and he could basically eat it all.
After Sorokin finished explaining, Han Xiao also put away the records with satisfaction and grinned.
"Okay, I've said what needs to be said. You stay here and get used to it first … Hella, take care of this guy. I'll go back first."
Hella nodded expressionlessly. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of him."
She emphasized the word 'take care'. Han Xiao immediately thought of Hella's battle maniac attributes and could not help but mourn for Sorokin.
He did not have the time to spar with Hella, and Sorokin, as the only Hero Spirit with Beyond Grade A strength in the Underworld, was obviously the most suitable tool. Since he could not be beaten to death, he would just beat him to death!
Han Xiao glanced at Sorokin strangely, shook his head, and teleported away with the King.
Seeing this, Sorokin sighed in his heart. He felt that life was like a dream, and he could only adapt to his new life.
This time, the seven Hero Spirit Kings came over with smiles.
"Old Eight, let's chat. Tell us what happened in the universe in the past few years. We're very curious."
Sorokin's face darkened.
"Who's your Old Eight? Don't bother me, scram! "
…
Days passed. Not long after Sorokin went missing, the galactic society finally discovered that the leader of the Limitless Financial Group had not appeared for some time.
Although Sorokin's level was too high, and very few people could see him, he was still the leader of a first-rate financial group in the universe, so there was a lot of attention on him.
Without the leader's orders, there was a certain amount of chaos within the Limitless Financial Group, and this situation could not be hidden from the rest of the employees.
Just as the galactic society was in shock, the Red Empire suddenly issued a wanted poster, and the target was Sorokin!
In the wanted poster, the dynasty claimed that there had been a breakthrough in the investigation, exposing Sorokin's true identity and many aliases. They listed many of his crimes, including leading the Tragedy of the Pinnacles, and even claimed that Sorokin was closely related to Gaud's disappearance. They believed that Sorokin had escaped from punishment, so they were hunting him down.
Ever since Han Xiao revealed Sorokin's background to the dynasty's upper echelons, the dynasty had been secretly investigating Sorokin's various experiences for the past two years. Using this opportunity, Han Xiao left behind some of the relevant evidence that Sorokin had revealed. He did not appear personally but secretly guided the dynasty to discover these clues during the investigation, exposing Sorokin's actions.
As soon as the news was released, the entire galactic society was shocked. Countless galactic residents and organizations were shocked by this news!
All along, Sorokin's image in the eyes of the world was a business tycoon, a universal tycoon, and a Beyond Grade A who did not like to fight. His business talents were more important than his identity as a Beyond Grade A. No one would have thought that Sorokin had such a huge secret. A renowned tycoon in the universe was actually the mastermind behind so many cases!
All of a sudden, the popularity of Sorokin broke through the roof. His experiences were too legendary, and almost everyone could not help but imagine it. Conspiracy theories became the most popular theory.
The galactic society was delighted to talk about Sorokin's deeds. As the public opinion continued to spread, the theories gradually became entertainment, and more and more people started to mock Sorokin.
In the words of the galactic residents, Sorokin seemed to have become the biggest schemer so far. Everything was related to him, and even the old sow next door suddenly giving birth to seven babies was part of his big plan.
A new meme was born on the galactic network. No matter what the matter was, at the end of the discussion, it would all end with "All of this is Sorokin's scheme! End. "
While the public was celebrating, the Limitless Financial Group was in a gloomy state.
The head of the financial group ran away with the money, and the dynasty's suppression followed closely. The negative impact caused the financial group to be distrusted, and a large number of creditors came to collect their debts. The stock price suffered a heavy blow, and the various partners and galactic banks no longer lent money. The capital chain gradually showed signs of breaking.
Sensing the Limitless Financial Group's predicament, various jackals and tigers bared their fangs and began to take action, nibbling away at the huge business empire of the Limitless Financial Group.
A large number of organizations attended the feast, and a large number of talents left the Limitless Financial Group. Countless businesses were swallowed up, and the scale of the Limitless Financial Group shrank crazily. Sorokin's years of hard work collapsed like a chain of dominoes.
Under the instructions of Han Xiao, the Germinal Financial Group also participated and took a share of the pie as a shareholder. Wheat Wheat, Ke Kezi, and the other shareholders did not want to be left out and tacitly shared the remains of the Limitless Financial Group.
On the other hand, Sorokin was a member of the Beyond Grade A Association after all. Because of this, the association had no choice but to hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with it.
…
In the Beyond Grade A Association headquarters on Planet Finn, a meeting was being held in the round table conference room.
"It's hard to imagine that Sorokin, who has always appeared weak, was hiding such a huge secret … He's a Primordial One who has survived until now. Who knows how strong he is? It's been so long, yet we didn't notice! "
Kasuyi's tone was filled with surprise.
"He's indeed hidden very well. I always thought that he was really weak and even mocked him. He's probably laughing in his heart." Sun Hunter scratched his head.
"Actually, I'm a little suspicious. Would Sorokin really do this? Could it be someone else trying to frame him? After all, some people have done it before …" A neutral Beyond Grade A could not help but glance at the dynasty's direct members. The hidden meaning was self-evident.
"We have absolute evidence," Clottey replied calmly, not getting angry.
Everyone discussed for a while. Suddenly, Han Xiao coughed, indicating that he had something to say. Everyone immediately quieted down.
Seeing this, Han Xiao smacked his lips and slowly said, "Sorokin's plot has been proven.
"Sorokin's scheme has been proven. He once triggered the Tragedy of the Pinnacles and attacked Gaud. Maybe he wants to do the same thing again. No matter what, as an upper echelon of the association, he's not on the same side as us. Instead, he wants to split the Beyond Grade A group. He has broken the rules of the association and caused a very negative impact … I suggest we cancel his membership as a punishment.
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. After a while, people raised their hands one after another.
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
The Beyond Grade As expressed their opinions one by one. The majority agreed, and very soon, only Manison remained.
"Old man, what do you say?" Han Xiao raised his brows.
Manison glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "I also agree. From today onwards, Sorokin's membership will be revoked. He's no longer a member of the Beyond Grade A Development Union."
…
On the mother planet of the Red Empire, in the Ruler's office …
"Is that so? The Beyond Grade A Association has revoked Sorokin's membership … At least they know what's good for them."
After reading the report, Marbruce nodded slightly. His expression was rather calm, as if he had expected this.
Opposite him was Bekorodi. They were the only two in the room.
Bekorodi wanted to say something but stopped. He said in a low voice, "Do you really believe that Gaud was attacked by Sorokin?"
"I don't believe it," Marbruce answered without hesitation.
"Then why did you …"
Marbruce knocked on the table and slowly said, "The evidence came too easily. Let me ask you, if you were Sorokin, would you have left so many flaws in the intelligence? This evidence is very strange. Although it's confirmed that it's not fake and is real, someone secretly guided us to get it. Maybe it's to confuse us, trying to use a real lie to hide the real murderer. "
"But Sorokin is indeed missing. According to your opinion, the guy who made Sorokin disappear might be the same person who attacked Gaud?"
"Hmm, that's very possible." Marbruce pondered. "Don't you think all of this is too much of a coincidence? It's like there's an invisible hand controlling the whole situation. Do you think … it's really Black Star who did it?"
"I don't dare to judge easily." Bekorodi hesitated. "Logically speaking, Gaud is only trying to copy the evolution energy. Black Star shouldn't have caused such a huge commotion. He has no reason to do that …"
"Maybe there's something behind this that we don't know." Marbruce did not comment. His eyes flickered. "I have a feeling that there might be a powerful force hidden in the universe that we haven't discovered …"
"What do you mean?"
"Hehe, that's a secret."
Marbruce shook his head and smiled. He did not answer. He silently recalled a certain piece of top-secret information that he had only found after becoming the Ruler.
As a Primordial Being, Soul Emperor had survived until now. Is he really the only one?
