Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 268 Spokesperson

"I know what you're worried about. What if I could use my position as a prosecutor to help you get rid of those troubles?"

Like Samael, Xia Qiyuan used the promises of status and power to lure Song Jie.

"The reason I was sent down here this time is not just to find Mus."

Another objective... was to shut up the group of people from Nevada.

To achieve this, we need to support someone locally, and personally, I have high hopes for you, Mr. Song.

Caught off guard by the big secret, Song Jie paused slightly in his hand holding the wine glass.

Regarding the shocking secrets revealed by Xia Qiyuan.

His first reaction was suspicion.

But I can't help but wonder how credible this story really is.

After all, the harm that group of monsters and demons from Nevada had done to Thousand Flower City was obvious to all.

Given the lessons learned from Nevada's transformation into a crime capital, it is highly likely that the Asian Union will place great importance on this group.

It's not impossible that a prosecutor will be sent down to handle this matter personally.

Seeing the fish take the bait, Xia Qiyuan calmly picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth.

"You and I both know that crime can only be reduced, never eradicated."

So my only target is that group of people in Nevada. I'll leave after I've dealt with them, so don't worry about me harming you.

"Prosecutor He is joking. I'm just a paparazzi who sells gossip news. I don't have that kind of ability."

Song Jie chose to temporarily change the subject and did not immediately express his opinion.

"Don't rush to deny it, Mr. Song. Whether you like it or not, the great purge will come soon. All I need is an inside man."

"You know, your name isn't the only one on the candidate list... I only contacted you first because you were able to find Mus."

Xia Qiyuan's meaningful warning cast a shadow over Song Jie's heart.

He glanced furtively at Ah Er beside him.

The latter nodded slightly and gestured to indicate that the call to Mus had ended.

Upon learning that Mus hadn't heard any of this, Song Jie breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After a few words, the situation unfolded.

Xia Qiyuan asked Song Jie to use his own channels to investigate Mu Si's whereabouts.

It turned out that if I wanted to survive, I should quickly bring Mus to me.

If anyone else had said that to Song Jie, they would have been kicked out long ago.

But Xia Qiyuan is now a prosecutor, so Song Jie can't help but take his words to heart.

Does Song Jie want to unify the underground forces?

Of course!
If Xia Qiyuan is telling the truth, Song Jie can immediately betray Mu Si.

But Mus is now working for Janus.

Song Jie dared not, and could not, touch him.

Also.

Although Xia Qiyuan spoke with great conviction, no one could guarantee that he was telling the truth.

What if they were just making a casual remark to scare me?

So many things can't be decided in a short time or on a whim.

Song Jie changed the subject again: "Let's not talk about that. Prosecutor He hasn't eaten much while sitting here for so long, has he? Let's eat first, let's eat first."

Xia Qiyuan naturally knew that Song Jie couldn't make a decision immediately.

He turned his head and glanced at Gao Bin beside him, who had just opened his eyes.

Gao Bin glanced at the clock in the room.

He took a gummy candy out of his pocket, popped one into his mouth, and nodded at Xia Qiyuan while chewing.

Gao Bin had already completed his transcendence.

Xia Qiyuan stopped wasting words with Song Jie and stood up with a stern face.

"Excuse me, Mr. Song, the Supreme People's Procuratorate and I have other matters to attend to. This is my business card. Let's talk again when you've made up your mind."

Faced with Xia Qiyuan's sudden change of attitude, Song Jie had no idea what he had done to offend him.

Having lived this long, this was the first time Song Jie had ever encountered such a bizarre dinner party.

One of them started eating and drinking excessively, and then closed his eyes to rest after finishing.

The other person didn't say a word for the first ten minutes after sitting down; he just stared at the tablet.

Without any pleasantries, he stated his purpose directly and then turned to leave.

It's like those players who are playing a second playthrough and are eager to skip the story and farm equipment.

Since the other person wanted to leave, Song Jie couldn't very well stop them, in order to show that he valued the matter.

He personally escorted the person to the parking lot.

They watched Xia Qiyuan and Gao Bin leave.

At that moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Song Jie's mind.

Were these two prosecutors in such a hurry to leave that they went to find someone else?
Once the thought arose, it took root in Song Jie's mind and he couldn't shake it off no matter what.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

Song Jie immediately contacted his old friend Zhang Feng.

…………

On the other side of the car.

Xia Qiyuan was driving, and Gao Bin was sitting in the passenger seat, enjoying the breeze, looking quite pleased.

"Old He, tell me the truth, what level of bizarre craftsmanship is behind this armor I'm wearing?"

Gao Bin asked curiously.

Not long ago, Gao Bin was granted most of the armor's permissions, with only the final complete binding remaining.

This new armor is said to not only have considerable combat power, but also provide extremely strong psychological protection.

In the past, Gao Bin had superhuman senses about ordinary people.

While it won't lead to a mental breakdown like in Sense8, you'll still feel fatigued.

But this time, Song Jie was perfectly fine after the super-sensory experience, and even felt refreshed afterwards.

That's quite peculiar.

Xia Qiyuan didn't even bother to look at him: "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Are you a newcomer to the Countermeasures Bureau?"

Gao Bin knew that Xia Qiyuan would never tell him something like this.

He was just joking.

"Fine, I won't ask... Was what you just told Song Jie true?"

Gao Bin changed the subject.

During this extrasensory experience, Gao Bin did not completely lose consciousness as usual and required someone to watch over him.

While watching Song Jie's memories, he could also sense the surrounding situation.

For example, Gao Bin heard every word of Xia Qiyuan and Song Jie's conversation.

"Is there even a question? Of course, I'm just fooling him. If I don't say that, what reason will I have to continue getting close to him emotionally?"

Without a legitimate reason, going to that place every few days would arouse suspicion in anyone.

In the matter of harming criminals in the black market.

Xia Qiyuan is still the same Xia Qiyuan, without any change.

He knew all too well that threats alone wouldn't work on someone like Song Jie.

Only through cooperation, by binding yourself to him on the same boat, and by using both kindness and firmness, will he accept your proposal.

"So it was fake after all... You made it sound so real."

Xia Qiyuan, not wanting to listen to Gao Bin's rambling any longer, slammed on the brakes and stopped the car: "Stop talking nonsense, have you found any useful information from Song Jie's memories?"

"Yes, and it's great news!"

Gao Bin's lips gradually curled upwards: "You want to hear first... but don't do anything! I'll just tell you straight, okay?"

Facing Xia Qiyuan's iron fist.

Gao Bin, who had originally intended to keep everyone in suspense, suddenly softened his tone.

Gao Bin cleared his throat and said seriously, "Mus is hiding under Song Jie's protection, but he recently broke away from Song Jie and started working for someone else. I also have Mus's contact information."

Xia Qiyuan nodded and jotted down the note in his notebook: "And the other piece of news?"

"Mus's new boss is named Janus, who is the disciple we are looking for."

"What did you say?"

Xia Qiyuan suddenly raised his head: "Is Musi working for his disciples now?"

When it came to matters concerning the Apostles, Gao Bin completely suppressed his lazy demeanor: "That's right, Hu Yingshao and Song Jie are actually both subordinates of the Apostles."

However, Song Jie was not highly regarded and was not given a mask; he was the kind of subordinate who was dispensable.

He himself is driven by fear and has always wanted to break free from the disciples' control; perhaps we can use him.

Xia Qiyuan quickly uploaded the message to the Countermeasures Bureau headquarters.

It's not that I'm requesting fire support, it's just a heads-up to report on the progress of the investigation.

After all, if the Countermeasures Bureau didn't know that the disciples were in Chika City, they wouldn't have sent them here to investigate.

As for fire support... against an apostle, no matter how many people come, it's useless.

In the end, it will still depend on him and Gao Bin, the two armor users, to deal with the disciples.

Not to mention that the target this time is a disciple who has mastered spatial teleportation.

Don't wait for the missile to lock onto the disciples.

They snap their fingers and open a portal, unleashing a barrage of reverse artillery fire to wipe out the land.

After Gao Bin finished recounting all the information he had received through his supernatural senses.

Despondency enveloped him again: "Sigh, I'm one step closer to becoming a disciple. Does that mean I'll be fighting the legendary apostles soon?"
Those guys in the lab were exaggerating how amazing my armor was, but I wonder if it can even withstand a basic attack. What if a thousand-faced monster comes along too…”

Once the task of investigating the disciples' identities is completed.

Gao Bin is forced to confront another, more desperate task.

He and Xia Qiyuan were going to confront the legendary apostle head-on.

"They said I'd only be in charge of intelligence work, but in the blink of an eye they sent me to the front lines..."

I haven't even dealt with any serious supernatural beings much, yet they're making me fight an apostle...

Is it that old bastard director who's annoyed that I'm slacking off all the time, and is planning to find some excuse to kill me...?

Gao Bin leaned against the car window and started muttering to himself.

pat!

Gao Bin felt as if he had been electrocuted.

There was a crisp sound.

"Old He, what are you doing? You've made me go fight the Apostles, and I'm not even allowed to complain?"

Gao Bin looked at Xia Qiyuan with great dissatisfaction.

"It wasn't me."

Xia Qiyuan said with a solemn expression, "Someone just tried to invade your brain, but was intercepted by the armor."

"what?!"

Gao Bin was startled and jumped up from his seat.

It almost dented a huge hole in the roof of the car.

Xia Qiyuan immediately used his own armor to connect with Gao Bin's armor and extract information: "We've found the source of the intrusion, it's in the next block! Get out of the car right away!"

After saying that, Xia Qiyuan opened the car door and rushed out.

"Ah... Oh!"

Realizing what was happening too late, Gao Bin climbed out of the car window in an attempt to catch up with Xia Qiyuan.

One of my shoes was knocked off while I was crawling through it.

Urgent situation.

He directly converted his armor into a pair of leg guards and put them on his legs, then launched himself forward to catch up with Xia Qiyuan.

On the other side of the street.

A bewildered Mus looked at his palm, unsure of what to do.

Only Ai Liang kept shouting in his mind.

'run! ’
