Chapter 827 Write it off
Fire Phoenix, along with two bodyguards, followed Xia Qing into Territory No. 9. Looking around, he sighed, "It's been a year since Li Si left Liehuo Mountain and came to this territory. I haven't had the time to pay attention to the situation here. I didn't expect to find such flat farmland at the foot of the mountain, and surface water that can be used to irrigate the farmland. It's really a good place."

What she meant was: Whatever Li Si did here had nothing to do with her? However, Li Si didn't seem to have done anything out of the ordinary.

Xia Qing responded politely, "It is because the terrain here is flat and suitable for farming. So after the fourth sister left, the base decided to build this place into a planting center. Captain Deng, please come this way, and be careful where you step."

"Family members are coming in, coming in!" Tang Huai, who was inside the eastern wasteland wall of Territory No. 2, lowered his voice and reported the real-time situation.

Liehuo's bodyguard caught the movement in the weed wall and turned to face where Tang Huai was hiding.

What the hell are you looking at? Do you think I'm as cowardly as Wen Nengjie? Staying in the territory under his jurisdiction, Tang Huai, who was protected by the Territory Law, was fearless and continued, "All three of them came in."

Wen Nengjie asked, "Brother Huai, how is it?"

Although the two bodyguards were wearing pure black, one-sided light-transmitting protective masks, Tang Huai still recognized them based on their figures. "They are among the top ten in Huiyi's combat power rankings. How many do you think they are? By the way, their protective suits are pretty good, and they must be made of new materials."

I… fuck! How much? !

Wen Nengjie didn't dare to say anything.

The two bodyguards ignored Tang Huai and looked up at the Jade-belted Sea Eagle hovering in the southwest sky.

"The fourth combatant of the Fiery Team, Huo Zhen, and the sixth combatant, Huo Ting, are both cyborgs."

In Territory No. 8, Zhou Zhaoping introduced to Xin Yu the identities of the two bodyguards following the Fire Phoenix on the screen. "This is the first time they are wearing this equipment. Judging from the style, it should have been upgraded."

Xin Yu zoomed in on the surveillance footage and carefully checked the connection between the protective suits on Huo Zhen and Huo Ting's necks, and gave a positive answer, "The protective mask and the protective suit are seamlessly connected, it is indeed an upgrade, and this must be a new material."

Zhou Zhaoping quickly searched for information on the computer, then turned the screen to Xin Yu, "This is the list of new materials that Liehuo has purchased since June last year. The black ones are public purchases, and the red ones are underground transactions we have found. There are 54 types in total. Miss, please take a look."

Xin Yu quickly glanced through it and said, "Sort out some information and give it to Huo Lei. He should be able to figure out what Liehuo's protective suit is made of."

"Yes."

In the No. 9 territory, Fire Phoenix followed Xia Qing to the "office" which could barely be considered a house, without asking why it was so dilapidated.

Because she knew when and why the dilapidated houses here were blown up.

The reason was standing right in front of her, and he became the manager of this territory!
Fire Phoenix turned her eyes away and looked at Yue Haiying who opened the door for them. "I heard that Captain Yue had retired. I didn't expect you were also in this territory."

Hui Yi and Hui San are not far from each other and have carried out many joint disaster relief missions in recent years. Yue Haiying's squadron has cooperated with the Fiery Team several times. Although the Fire Phoenix never leads the team to perform missions, they have met twice.

Yue Haiying didn't believe that she just knew she was here, and nodded, "Director, Captain Deng, please come in." Huo Fenghuang saw Yan Yue sitting in a wheelchair in the room again, and smiled and said to Xia Qing, "Lord Xia has a keen eye for talent and employs people in a flexible way. The Ninth Planting Center is really full of hidden talents."

Tang Huai snorted, "It's amazing to say three idioms in one sentence!"

"That's right!" Liu Jing, who was lying next to Tang Huai, followed immediately and said regretfully, "Boss, they went into the house and closed the door. We can't hear them."

The interior of Xia Qing's office was as simple as the exterior, with only a table and two chairs, but it was very clean. After entering the room, Deng Yufeng took off her protective mask, revealing a fiery red face.

This face is very visually impactful when viewed up close, and many people dare not look directly at it. However, Xia Qing does not feel this way, because in the past ten years, she has had a dark red face for five years.

Every time Xia Qing saw his own face in the cracked mirror in the dim bathroom of the Evolvers' dormitory, he felt like he was watching a horror movie.

She also took off her protective mask and opened the bag containing the disposable paper cup. "It's simple here, there is no distilled water. Captain Deng, can I drink filtered water?"

"Of course, water will do." Deng Yufeng took off her gloves, deliberately showing her fiery red hands with needle holes that had not yet healed, and took a sip of the filtered water from Xia Qing. "Don't be afraid of you laughing at me. I was so nervous at Third Brother's place just now that I didn't even dare to drink water."

"Of course, Third Brother is still angry with me. He didn't even give me a bottle of water." Deng Yufeng drank half a glass of water and looked at Xia Qing sincerely.

"Miss Xia, let's not beat around the bush. I knew Shan Ying was seeking revenge on you, but I didn't stop her. After all, her only relative in the world died at the hands of Miss Xia, and there was no reason for me to stop her from seeking revenge. Afterwards, my third brother called to warn me, and I realized that he owed Miss Xia a favor, so I came here specially to apologize to him and Miss Xia."

"Captain Deng, you are too polite. It is indeed my fault that Shan Xiang died." In the cause of death of the members of the Fiery Catching Team reported by Xia Qing, Shan Xiang was considered to have been killed by mistake.

Xia Qing stated that Shan Xiang hid behind a rock and attacked her. She was poisoned at the time, so she could not control her strength and missed, killing Shan Xiang.

Does anyone believe this?
The Fiery Catching Team provoked and fired guns first, so regardless of whether Shan Xiang was killed by mistake or not, Xia Qing was not guilty, and no one would investigate the truth of her words.

Huo Fenghuang still looked sincere, "Third brother is my savior. If my people attacked you and I didn't stop them, it would be the same as me attacking you. Third brother is right to be angry, and it is also right for him to destroy my source of income. Miss Xia, let's write off the past, okay?"

Just write it off? No compensation at all? Xia Qing nodded calmly, "Of course. Hearing you say that, I feel relieved. I can now grow crops with peace of mind."

Fire Phoenix smiled, but suddenly she felt sad. She leaned back in her chair and murmured, "If I had the same luck as Miss Xia and was protected by Third Brother, I wouldn't be in this state of being neither human nor ghost now."

After waiting for a few seconds and not hearing Xia Qing asking why she ended up like this, Huo Fenghuang understood, "Miss Xia already knows about the underground experiment?"

Xia Qing nodded, "I heard Brother Yue say something a while ago. Miss Deng was able to walk out of that hell alive. Not only was she lucky, she was also very capable."

Many of the people who were used as experimental subjects died tragically underground.

Fire Phoenix, who wanted to play the victim, was stopped by Xia Qing, so she changed her words naturally, "Well, compared to those who died tragically in the ground, my luck is really good."
