The black hood was pulled off, and Han Xiao opened his eyes. The blinding white light made him squint his eyes involuntarily. It took him a few seconds to get used to it and see his current situation clearly.
He was sitting on a cold iron chair, with a table in front of him and a one-sided mirror on the wall. It was a typical interrogation room.
Across the table sat two people, Li Hui and Feng Jun.
"Let me introduce myself. I am an intelligence officer from Stardragon's Strategic Homeland Defense Bureau," Feng Jun said calmly. "This isn't the first time we've met. Do you remember me?"
"Yes," Han Xiao said lazily. "The man with a deep wallet."
Feng Jun was speechless. Can you not bring that up?
"Division 13, Li Hui." Li Hui's expression was stiff, and his tone was even stiffer. It made people feel that even his sh * t was stiff.
Stardragon's Strategic Homeland Defense Bureau had a total of thirteen departments.
"Should we call you Han Xiao, or Zero?" Feng Jun went straight to the point.
"Up to you."
Li Hui interrupted the conversation and went straight to the point. "Cut the crap. Explain why the Germinal Organization is after you, and what kind of information you have. Tell me everything."
"Why should I tell you?" Han Xiao asked with interest.
Li Hui sneered. "Where do you think this is? You have to say whatever we want you to say!"
"So what if I don't say it?" Han Xiao smiled. "Shoot me with a gun?"
"You think I don't dare?" Li Hui shouted.
Feng Jun quickly tried to smooth things over. "Alright, alright. Calm down, Han Xiao. You know we're a government agency. Cooperate with us, and it'll be good for you."
Han Xiao twisted his body into a more comfortable position and said with a smile, "One is the bad guy, and the other is the good guy. How many years have we been using this trick? Can you change it up a little? I like beauty traps and stuff like that. Looking at you two serious men, I don't even have the mood to talk. Do you understand the service with a smile? Don't be so tense, come, give me a smile."
Feng Jun's face stiffened, and he coughed dryly. He secretly gave Li Hui a look. Li Hui understood and stood up, pretending to be angry. He pointed at Han Xiao and shouted, "This is not a place for you to joke around. I can throw you in jail for an indefinite period."
"What a big shot."
Han Xiao suddenly stopped smiling, and his eyes turned sharp. "I'm from the Germinal Organization. Threatening me? Threatening me? Do you think it'll work? Don't make a fool of yourself with this kind of child's play.
If you want me to work with you, sure. Then show me some sincerity and let someone important talk to me. "
You are not qualified! "
Han Xiao's tone gradually became louder, and when he said the last sentence, he even pulled the handcuffs with both hands. The chair was lifted an inch off the ground and fell back down with a bang. The sound was deafening in the enclosed space, and it echoed endlessly.
Feng Jun and Li Hui looked at each other. Their mission was to test Han Xiao's attitude. Han Xiao was very clear about this, so he deliberately acted fearless. He wanted to tell the person behind the one-way mirror that he had a trump card.
At this moment, a deep male voice came from the interrogation room. "As you wish, I'll talk to you."
"Who are you?" Han Xiao looked at the one-way mirror and knew that it was the person behind him who had spoken.
"Division 13, Intelligence Minister. Do I have the right?"
Han Xiao laughed. "Just barely."
Li Hui and Feng Jun's eyelids twitched. This person is really shameless!
The Intelligence Minister did not take offense. "You just said that you are a member of the Germinal Organization —"
Han Xiao interrupted him and corrected him. "Once."
"So you're saying that you defected?"
"Yes." Han Xiao smiled secretly.
"What was your position?"
"A logistics researcher."
"What kind of research?"
"Mechanical weapons."
"You're lying," the Intelligence Minister said flatly. "This is not enough to explain your bounty of one million."
I was waiting for you to ask this. Han Xiao's face was calm. "Instead of saying that you think I'm lying, you actually want me to have something of equal value to the bounty — intelligence. That's why you've been investigating me and not using force."
"Intelligence is only useful in the hands of an organization with the ability to execute. My exposure represents my sincerity in cooperating with you. I am the enemy of the Germinal Organization, not your enemy."
The Intelligence Minister said in a low voice, "Why should we cooperate with you? Look around you. This is our territory. We have plenty of ways to make you talk!"
Han Xiao suddenly said, "Communication record, Galaxy Calendar year 687, 14th of June. Signal origin: Blue Star. Destination: Dark-star Eighth Fortress. Content is top secret."
The Intelligence Minister was silent for a full ten minutes.
Li Hui and Feng Jun shuddered and understood. This piece of information that they did not understand had attracted the attention of the Intelligence Minister and even had to ask for instructions from the higher-ups.
When the Intelligence Minister spoke again, his tone was extremely serious.
"Are you sure?"
"If I did not see it with my own eyes, would I know about [Dark-star]?"
Han Xiao smiled. "Now, can we talk about cooperation?"
"… Okay."
The Intelligence Minister's tone was serious. If what Han Xiao said was true, this piece of information was very important to Stardragon and even the entire planet.
Han Xiao laughed to himself. This was the excuse he had prepared a long time ago.
Everything had to be explained from the background of the world. Since the exploration era, the three universe-level organizations had fought for tens of thousands of years, and no one had been able to destroy the other. The law of the dark forest was the primitive form of the universe. Just like the development of every period of history, when chaos and barbarism ended, order was born. The three universe-level organizations had reached a consensus to coexist peacefully, explore the universe together, and build a system of order.
The universe was never lonely. Stars were shining brightly, and countless races were active in every corner of the universe. Starships as many as the stars in the universe passed through this waterless ocean. Countless pieces of information wandered in the universe through electromagnetic waves or optical communication, waiting to be captured. Countless thoughts and thoughts intertwined and turned into whispers of the soul, like an invisible current, sneaking into nothingness.
Silence was just a facade. The universe was bustling.
Every civilization would go through such a stage. They would look up at the stars and guess if there were any life forms similar to them. They would think that they were the only intelligent life forms in the universe. They would enter the universe with the pride of being the chosen one and the ambition to conquer the universe, only to realize that the universe was not for them to conquer. They were not lonely, and they were not special.
The explored universe was divided into many Star Fields, such as the Shattered Star Ring, the Ancient Star Desert, the Bright Silver Spiral Arm, the Sea of Star Spirits, and so on. Each Star Field had dozens of Star Clusters, and the Star Clusters were further divided into different Star Systems. Then there were numbered Star Zones, and finally, there were countless planets in the universe.
The coordinates of the Blue Star were: Shattered Star Ring, Colton Star Cluster, Garton Galaxy, Star Zone 9, Blue Star.
As for the precise coordinates, it was a multi-dimensional coordinate system made up of multiple axes, using a complex combination of letters and numbers.
The galactic organization that came into contact with the Blue Star was an advanced civilization in the Garton Galaxy, Godora. The Dark-star that Han Xiao had mentioned was an ambitious organization that had broken away from Godora. They were always thinking of overthrowing Godora's regime. The two were mortal enemies.
The universe was vast, and countless organizations and civilizations were intertwined. The level of a civilization was largely determined by its mobility in the universe. For example, the Godora civilization could travel across Star Zones without relying on the stargates and wormholes built by more advanced civilizations. Therefore, Godora was considered a galactic civilization, which was a few levels higher than the Blue Star. The same was true for Dark-star.
If the Germinal Organization came into contact with Dark-star and obtained the resources and support of Dark-star, the Six Nations would be in deep trouble. An evil and ambitious organization like DarkStar might not abide by the 'Treaty of Contact between Universal Civilizations (Seventh Revision)' that the three Universal Civilizations had made during the exploration era.
The details of coming into contact with galactic organizations were the secrets of the Six Nations, and he did not doubt the authenticity of Han Xiao's words.
In fact, the Germinal Organization had never come into contact with Dark-star. Since they could not verify it, Han Xiao could do whatever he wanted.
Throwing out such explosive information could make Division 13 value him more and increase the threat of the Germinal Organization in the eyes of Stardragon. It was very helpful for his main mission, so why not?
Relying on Stardragon was a temporary measure. Han Xiao would not always rely on others, and Division 13 would not completely trust him. To Han Xiao, the cooperation between the two parties was just a pretense. There was no way he would wholeheartedly work for others. Using Stardragon's power to deal with the Germinal Organization was a way to gain experience. When he was fully developed, Han Xiao would kick Stardragon aside and do it on his own.
I'll remember all the 'special treatment' you guys gave me in my little notebook. I'll settle it with you guys in the future, Han Xiao thought as he shook his handcuffs.
Every novice planet was like an independent server, and the main storyline was different. Han Xiao's interest was piqued, and he had specially researched the various events of the various organizations in Galaxy. Now, it was all valuable information.
The novice planets were very far away from each other, and there were specialized galactic travel agencies that provided travel services. As long as one used an interstellar communicator to contact these agencies, they would automatically locate the source of the information. With the help of the interstellar portals built by the various Star Clusters and Star Systems, as long as one could afford it, they could even cross the entire visible universe. After all, the Pro League was open to players from all planets. If they could not gather together, how could they compete? Generally, the stage for large-scale activities and competitions would be set on neutral or uninhabited planets.
"Give me a map of Stardragon and a pen."
Han Xiao suddenly said.
Feng Jun spread a map of Stardragon on the table. Han Xiao picked up the pen and circled three positions with a brief introduction. "These are the three secret bases of the Germinal Organization in Stardragon. Take it as a sign of my sincerity."
"You only know three?"
"Of course not. I'll tell you the rest after you verify my information."
Han Xiao did not want to reveal everything so easily. It would not do him any good if he told them everything.
"What are your conditions?" The Intelligence Minister asked. Feng Jun and Li Hui both pricked up their ears.
Han Xiao smiled mysteriously. "I just want to work together to deal with the Germinal Organization."
That simple?
"I'll report your situation to the superiors. In the meantime, I'll have to trouble you to stay here."
The Intelligence Minister cut off the communication.
