Chapter 261 Zhang Yu's Happiness

"You all know what happened afterwards. I caused the traffic accident according to the old man's arrangement. I feel sorry for your parents, but I was also instructed by someone. I am also a victim."

"You stood on the corpses of our parents to hold up your son. How could you be hurt? You committed murder intentionally!" Zhao Lexi said angrily.

"Do you know this person?"

"I don't know him. I've never seen him." The man shook his head.

At this time, Gao Jue pointed the revised portrait in his hand at Zhang Yu: "What about this person? Do you know him?"

"Huh? Isn't this my son's mentor?"

Zhao Lexi looked over and saw that it was still the same old man, except that this time his eyebrows were thicker, his glasses were gone, and his lips were thinner. He looked like a completely different person.

"He was wearing makeup when he came to see you. You weren't familiar with him, so you felt strange and had never seen him before. But in fact, the person who asked you to kill was your son's mentor."

"Ah! Does he have a grudge against your parents?" There was a hint of curiosity in Zhang Yu's tone.

Zhao Lexi glared at him: You are still so gossipy even when you are about to die.

"No." Zhao Shiyun understood that this was an exchange of interests. Someone in the Zhao family used other interests in exchange for this person sending Zhang Yu's son abroad.

After asking for the answer he wanted, Zhao Shiyun kept his promise and gave Zhang Yu a quick response.

As Zhang Yu breathed his last, Zhao Shiyun said, "When I believed my parents' situation wasn't an accident, I insisted on investigating Zhang Yu. Besides finding out he was Zhao Liang's pen pal and that there was something fishy about his son's departure from the country, I also listed several other suspects. However, these people had no connection to the Zhao family, so I couldn't determine who was involved. His son's mentor was one of them."

"So, when I arrived at the Capital Base ahead of time, I asked my uncle to look for Zhang Yu while also checking for those people. His son's mentor was named Wu Xiangyang. He did register at the Capital Base after the disaster, but then disappeared."

"died?"

"This kind of person cherishes himself the most. If he can't guarantee his own safety, he won't leave the base. I think that since he didn't die, he must have found a better place to go."

"What should we do then?" Zhao Lexi asked anxiously. They had finally figured out the cause of their parents' death, but now the clues were gone.

"There's no rush. As long as he's alive, we can find him." Zhao Shiyun was calmer. "It doesn't matter even if he's dead. We can just take Gao Jue back to our family and we'll know everything."

Zhao Lexi's eyes lit up and she looked at Gao Jue excitedly. Gao Jue smiled and nodded.

Zhao Lexi suddenly remembered something and took out a green date and said, "Brother Gao, you told me not to eat anything special. Does this count?"

"Let me take a look." Gao Jue took it, looked around carefully, put it under his nose and sniffed it, then carefully put it away. "I'll take it back and take a closer look."

"Also, Brother Gao, do you know what the raw materials of the second-generation evolution potion that Professor Wang mentioned are?" She asked in front of Gao Jue, just to let Professor Wang think of the answer.

"I know. I'll tell my brother later and ask him to find a chance to tell Professor Yuan."

Zhao Lexi was curious and wanted to ask more, but Zhao Shiyun changed the subject: "Lele, it's almost time to eat. We just came back and didn't meet your sister Hong. Don't forget us when you cook. Go up and tell her."

"Okay." Zhao Lexi ran upstairs quickly.

"Alright, you can speak now." "It's a mutated cockroach."

Zhao Shiyun laughed: It is indeed a bit disgusting, no wonder he didn't want to tell Lele in person.

"I'll find a chance to tell Professor Yuan as soon as possible." Zhao Shiyun paused. "Ma Jie is on the move. When the zombies attacked the base, he killed enough zombies to gain his freedom. After the zombie attack, he pretended to have turned over a new leaf and set up a stall selling Chaos again, but he was actually secretly stockpiling supplies and contacting mercenaries. It seems he's preparing to leave the Beicang base."

"This kind of person has no sense of right and wrong. He won't leave his comfort zone just because he's embarrassed. He wants to leave only because there are better options," Gao Jue added.

"The only base with a better living environment than Beicang Base is Capital Base, but going there doesn't require much preparation. He hasn't left for so long, so it's obvious that his destination isn't there." Zhao Shiyun smiled. "Besides, Zhang Gang contacted him through the White Tiger Gang and provided him with a lot of supplies, so he was able to successfully form a team so quickly. I plan to insert someone in there and follow him. I'm sure there will be unexpected gains."

"Zhang Gang wants to get involved in everything. The White Tiger Gang, the Changsheng Society, and now the Shi'an Company. This shows that there is something profitable in this matter."

"Do you know what Ma Jie did before the apocalypse? He was a broker! His mother was an 18th-tier actress, but she was incredibly beautiful, no less beautiful than Xue Huan. She retired from the screen after giving birth to Ma Jie, but she's still very generous. Ma Jie's father's identity is unknown, but his clients are all either wealthy or noble. He has all kinds of resources, as long as you can think of it and pay the right amount, he can arrange it for you!"

"His resources were given to him by his father."

"There's only one explanation. His qualifications are good enough for Changsheng to be interested in, so Zhang Gang came to him because they are both members of the Changsheng Society. Zhang Gang contributed a lot to his survival. Perhaps he has other ideas..."

"And you," Gao Jue said with a smile. Zhao Shiyun had also made a significant contribution to protecting Ma Jie, hoping to play the long game. Luring the Changsheng Society was unexpected; they were more interested in finding the remnants of the Shi'an Company. As long as Ma Jie and the others left the Beicang base, they wouldn't be afraid of those people not coming after them.

Thinking of this, Gao Jue hinted, "Perhaps the second-generation evolution potion would be a good bait."

Zhao Shiyun was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted: "As expected of a military advisor, you've killed two birds with one stone."

Gao Jue smiled and corrected him, "Kill three birds with one stone. Next..."

After the two of them agreed, they went upstairs to eat and dispose of Zhang Yu's body.

A week later.

4 month 13 day.

Zhao Shiyun brought back a second-generation evolution potion and gave it to Zhao Lexi.

"Le Le, try it. How long will it take you to absorb all the energy in this potion?"

Zhao Lexi drank it in one gulp and absorbed it quietly.

The pure energy flowed into Zhao Lexi's body through her throat and spread out.

A quarter of an hour later, she opened her eyes and said excitedly, "Brother, the energy in this potion is equivalent to half a level five energy crystal. It's amazing!"

Zhao Shiyun was stunned: "Have you absorbed it all?"

"Yeah!" Zhao Lexi nodded, "Anything else?"

The corner of Zhao Shiyun's mouth twitched. What he brought back was not an ordinary second-generation evolution potion, but a second-generation evolution potion with a hundred times concentration. He only took a small sip, but it took him three days to absorb it. His sister actually absorbed it all in a quarter of an hour.
