Seeing Jiang Liwei walking towards him, Zhang Beixing was not surprised and calmly turned around to face him.

Jiang Liwei was the first to greet people: "Hello, I am Jiang Liwei, captain of the Donghai Fire Special Service Team 1."

"What's the matter?"

"That's right. I heard from the people around that you were the one who evacuated the injured customers from the store immediately after the fire broke out. On behalf of the fire department, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

Zhang Beixing responded with a faint "Yes."
"No need for thanks. Serving the people is simply my duty."

Judging from his tone, Jiang Liwei asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

Zhang Beixing took out his ID and showed it to Jiang Liwei.

Good heavens! An army colonel?
So young!

Could it be a fake certificate?
However, the stamp on the document does not appear to be counterfeit.

Jiang Liwei was suddenly startled, then immediately stood at attention and saluted:

"Greetings, Commander!"

Seeing Jiang Liwei, the special operations team leader, being so polite, Zhang Beixing couldn't help but chuckle, then waved his hand helplessly.

"We're not even from the same system, no need to be so polite. By the way, have you figured out the cause of the fire?"

Jiang Liwei answered truthfully: "We originally suspected that it was a natural gas or coal gas tank leak that caused a chain explosion. However, what is strange is that this store just completed a fire inspection yesterday. Logically, such a major accident should not have occurred. We are still investigating the specific situation."

Hearing Jiang Liwei's cautious reply, Zhang Beixing nodded slowly. He could tell that this special operations captain was a man who truly got things done and wouldn't just give a perfunctory answer.

"Since the fire has been extinguished, why were special police officers deployed and why was the scene cordoned off?"

Jiang Liwei remained silent for a moment, but considering Zhang Beixing's identity, he felt there was no need to hide it, so he told the truth.

"Here's what happened, we found a bag of dismembered remains in the store..."

what?
Dismemberment!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing's reaction was exactly the same as Jiang Liwei's when he first heard it.

There was nothing we could do, because what happened was just too bizarre.

Explosions, fires, chemicals, and now a dismemberment case?
Even a fool would know this is no simple matter.

But at the same time, Zhang Beixing also felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth.

Before Zhang Beixing could ask for more useful information, two criminal police officers suddenly arrived together from a short distance away.

"Hello sir, please cooperate with us. Could you answer a few questions?"

As a routine inquiry, Zhang Beixing would certainly not deliberately refuse to cooperate.

As they talked, the two took out a document and handed it to Zhang Beixing.

Do you know this person?

The document contains a photograph, below which is the person's biographical information.

Zhang Beixing looked up and frowned slightly.

He actually knew the person in the photo.

Zhang Beixing's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, slowly forming a deep frown. As if he had suddenly thought of something, he asked in an unquestionable tone.

"Is he the victim in the dismemberment case?"

The two officers were taken aback, exchanged a glance, and their eyes blared with alarms.

The dismemberment case was kept secret, so how did this person know about it?
The two men immediately tried to draw their guns.

Seeing that things were not going well, Jiang Liwei quickly explained, "Comrade, don't be nervous. I am Jiang Liwei, the captain of the Special Operations Team 1. This is Colonel Zhang Beixing from the Southeast Military Region. I just reported the case."

The officer nodded, relaxed slightly, but still did not answer Zhang Beixing's question, instead continuing to ask.

"Officer, are you sure you know this person?"

Zhang Beixing nodded, but before he could speak, Zhang Yingying beside him couldn't help but cover her mouth and gasp.

"Jang Geun-soo? How could it be him!"

That's right, the body that was killed, stuffed into a bag, and dumped in the hot pot restaurant at this very moment was Zhang Genxiu, who had just had a conflict with Zhang Beixing that morning.

Zhang Beixing certainly didn't think that Zhang Genxiu was willing to risk his life to frame him in order to get revenge on him; after all, even the most foolish person has their limits.

The moment Zhang Beixing saw the photo, the fog in his mind instantly crumbled.

Clearly, this is a conspiracy against him!
As for who would dare to attack him, the answer is equally obvious.

Zhang Beixing looked at the photo on the document, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Twilight Organization...

Heh, this is forcing me to personally eliminate you all.

Explosions, fires, and finally, a corpse was thrown out – the conspiracy was intricately linked, luring them into a trap step by step.

Thinking of this, Zhang Beixing's eyes grew even more piercing.

Having heard the deceased's name from Zhang Yingying, the two police officers dared not be careless any longer and their expressions became serious.

"Our preliminary investigation revealed that you and the deceased had a conflict not long ago, so..."

Zhang Beixing asked expressionlessly, "Do you think I'm the murderer?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yingying immediately became anxious.

"Impossible! Don't wrong an innocent person! My brother and I have always been together. My brother didn't kill Zhang Genxiu!"

The officer explained impartially, "I'm sorry, miss, this is our job, and there's no case yet, it's just a suspicion."

As they spoke, the two looked at Zhang Beixing again and said in a cold voice.

"If you can, please come with us."

“I’m sorry, I can’t go with you.” Zhang Beixing shook his head. “This is a very important matter. It’s better if your leader comes and talks to me in person.”

As he spoke, Zhang Beixing took out his identification again. Given his rank, these ordinary police officers naturally had no right to check it.

After receiving Zhang Beixing's identification, the two exchanged surprised glances.

One officer immediately ran to verify the authenticity of the documents, while another began making calls on a walkie-talkie.

"Captain, Captain, please come here."

When Captain Gao arrived, he was taken aback when he saw Zhang Beixing.

"Huh? Captain Zhang, it's you?"

Zhang Beixing greeted him with a smile: "Captain Gao, it's been a while."

"Yeah, that old bastard Golden Eagle was afraid our local brigade would snatch you away from him, so he hid you very well," Captain Gao said in a friendly manner. "But now even if I wanted to snatch you, I couldn't. You have a bright future ahead of you."

Since the captain knew the suspect, his identification was definitely not fake, which saved some trouble. The officer who took the identification to verify it quickly returned the officer's ID to Zhang Beixing.

After learning the whole story, Captain Gao's brows furrowed instantly.

"I believe you. Soldiers trained by Golden Eagle would never do such a thing, but the current evidence is very unfavorable to you."

"Besides, you are a member of the military, so we local authorities can't take direct coercive measures against you. Why don't we let the military region send someone to handle this?"

Zhang Beixing had no objections and immediately dialed Fan Tianlei's number.

After listening to Zhang Beixing finish recounting everything, Fan Tianlei's tone became heavy.

"We have indeed discovered that an unknown force has recently infiltrated the East China Sea, but it is still difficult to clear you of suspicion."

"This is a bit serious. Let me send a car to pick you up first."

Zhang Beixing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Beixing smiled slightly at Zhang Yingying, whose eyes were full of worry, to reassure her.

"Don't look so serious. Your brother is a respectable person now, so don't worry, no one can frame me."

"And how dare they make my lovely sister live in fear while eating! Your brother will make those people pay a bloody price for the truth..."

Privilege is something that people both love and hate...

Especially when you have it, and others don't.

The Zhang family has strict family traditions; otherwise, it wouldn't be the case that while other rich kids his age were playing with cars and women, Zhang Beixing was still obediently staying at home playing computer games and reading comics.

In fact, as long as Zhang Beixing is willing, he can enjoy the privileges brought by the Zhang family's lineage anytime and anywhere, and he doesn't have to wait until today after enlisting in the army.

However, habits are deeply ingrained, and Zhang Beixing didn't actually have any particular attachment to privileges.

If it weren't for those bastards who played dirty tricks on him this evening, Zhang Beixing wouldn't have liked this feeling of being treated specially.

When the military region sent people and vehicles to pick him and Zhang Yingying up and take them away, some uninformed people and even some police officers couldn't help but glance at them frequently and secretly grumble to themselves.

The truth in the world is often held by a minority, and intelligent people are always in the minority. Zhang Beixing is not foolish enough to take the initiative to explain anything; most importantly, he is lazy.

After briefly explaining to his sister and seeing her relieved expression, Zhang Beixing leaned back in his car seat, closed his eyes, and pretended to doze off. He then stretched out a finger and vigorously rubbed his temples, beginning to sort out the cause and effect of the matter.

Previously, he had underestimated the Twilight Organization.

If this kind of thing happens today, and we can't completely eliminate this hidden danger, then it will be the same tomorrow and the day after.

Fortunately, the spider sense alerted me in time today, preventing Zhang Yingying from being harmed because of me. Otherwise, Zhang Beixing would never forgive his negligence.

Over the next few days, he would have to investigate this so-called Twilight Organization more thoroughly.

As for why Zhang Genxiu was suddenly killed, and in such a cruel way, Zhang Beixing has no clue at the moment.

The events of the day flashed through their minds. Time flew by, and soon the car carrying the two of them sped into the military region gate.

Fan Tianlei, Chen Shanming, and several members of the military region's investigation team had been waiting nearby for some time.

Zhang Beixing saw them through the car window, slowly gathered the scattered thoughts in his mind, and exhaled a long breath.

Well, let's deal with the immediate problem first.

"Please take care of her for me, thank you."

"Don't mention it, we're all family."

After the car stopped, Zhang Beixing instructed Chen Shanming to make sure his sister was settled for the time being before striding towards Fan Tianlei and the others.

"Zhang Beixing, these are comrades from the investigation team. They've come specifically for your sake."

Zhang Beixing had already guessed who these people were, so he wasn't surprised. Both sides saluted each other in greeting.

Seeing that the scene was a bit serious, Fan Tianlei couldn't help but chuckle and speak.

"Don't feel uncomfortable. After all, it's a matter of life and death, and you're the prime suspect. This is all standard procedure."

"However, our military region's leaders are not so stupid as to believe everything they hear. They have all heard about the Twilight Company, and they don't believe you would kill someone so easily, because the Southeast Military Region has never trained any murderers."

"If those bastards think they can easily slander one of our outstanding officers like this, they are simply delusional!"

As he spoke, Fan Tianlei sighed softly, saying in a resigned tone, "But this matter is indeed troublesome. Because of the fire, the surveillance lines in that hot pot restaurant were all burned, so there is no way to find out who moved the body in."

Zhang Beixing nodded, without saying anything more, and after glancing at the members of the investigation team, he got straight to the point.

“Ground surveillance can be destroyed at will, but satellites in the sky cannot. Give me a computer, and in an hour, I will find the murderer and prove my innocence.”

The investigation team looked at Fan Tianlei, who nodded hurriedly.

After discussing it, the group decided there was no problem and had someone bring over a dedicated laptop for Zhang Beixing to use.

"You just mentioned satellites?" Fan Tianlei asked. "What are you planning to do with them?"

Zhang Bei deftly opened the laptop, quickly pressed the power button, and while waiting for it to boot up, he looked up at Fan Tianlei and answered.

"No matter how far the reach of the twilight is, it can't really extend into the sky. Satellites are crucial assets for every country, not something that private individuals can control or own. Next, I may have to do some things that are slightly against the rules."

what?
Not in accordance with the rules?

Could this be illegal or disorderly conduct?

Fan Tianlei said worriedly, "Don't do anything reckless."

"Don't worry." Zhang Beixing nodded to reassure him, "There are more than just our country's own satellites overhead."

What does it mean that satellites are not limited to one's own country?
No matter whose satellite it is, it can't be moved easily.

That's as if satellites in the sky are like cabbages on the roadside, something you can just pick at will.

Before Fan Tianlei could say anything more, the laptop had already booted up, and Zhang Beixing's nimble hands immediately began to fly across the keyboard like butterflies.

His eyes were glued to the screen, and a series of rapid tapping sounds filled the air.

The onlookers exchanged suspicious glances.

Could he really control the satellite?
You must be joking.

Not only did the investigation team members not believe it, but Fan Tianlei himself was also skeptical.

Although he knew that Zhang Beixing had superb hacking skills, the idea that he could control a satellite was still too far-fetched.

After all, satellites from any country are never operated by a single person; they are security systems built by hundreds or thousands of computer technicians.

Zhang Beixing didn't waste any words and chose to prove everything with his actions.

Ten fingers flew across the keyboard, strings of green characters flashed and floated rapidly on the laptop screen, and black windows filled with gray code kept popping up, making it dizzying to look at.

Controlling a satellite is indeed not a simple task; even Zhang Beixing would have to expend a great deal of effort.

However, compared to other methods of proving innocence, although this method is a bit troublesome, it is the simplest and most direct method Zhang Beixing can think of at the moment. (End of this chapter)
