"Brother Shen, the intelligence you brought back this time is very valuable. After investigation, they found many spies planted by Xinhai in Xinjing."

"Although Xinhai and Xinjing both belong to the Great Celestial Empire, there is no country left in the apocalypse. They are all eyeing each other's little piece of land, wishing to wrap each other's resources into their own pockets."

"Alas, the higher-ups, considering the kinship and the population decline in the apocalypse, don't want to break up with Xin Hai."

"But they went too far this time, causing us to lose a granary base. The higher-ups meant to use this peace talk to extort a lot of money from them. We don't want to break up with them, but they have to rely on the food we provide to survive, so they dare not break up with us."

As he spoke, Yin Hu took out a folder from the drawer and handed it to Shen Ge.

"In fact, there is another very important reason why we have allowed the Monster Association to grow over the years. They have a special parasitic weird mother in their hands. It is said that it is a new variety cultivated based on the weird cells of the ancestor, which can greatly increase the lifespan of monsters."

"Brother Shen, you also know that the biggest problem for us weirdos is our short lifespan, so we attach great importance to this aspect."

"We want to take advantage of this peace meeting to find an opportunity to steal the other party's research results."

After a pause, Yin Hu got to the point: "But over the years, we captains have had a lot of dealings with Xin Hai. Once we go there, we will be under comprehensive surveillance, and we won't have any chance to do anything. The leader thought that Brother Shen, you have just joined the organization, and there is no information about you there. He wants you to go with him this time to see if you can find a chance to sneak into the Monster Association and find relevant research information."

"It doesn't matter if we are accidentally discovered by the Monster Association. This time they have the upper hand in our hands, so they won't dare to break up with us. This won't be dangerous for you, but if it succeeds, our Tiangan Dizhi will make a major breakthrough in monster research."

"Would you like to think about it?" Yin Hu did not command Shen Ge in the way of a superior issuing orders to subordinates. Instead, it felt like he was discussing things with him.

As a "leader", doing this is considered to be giving Shen Ge enough face.

In fact, even if Yin Hu didn't say it, Shen Ge would have tried to get one to study when he heard about the new type of parasite, not to mention that it came from the Monster Association.

The Monster Association is hidden very deeply in "reality", and Shen Ge has tried every possible way but has not been able to find any clues. At present, apart from knowing that Mr. Fang may have some relationship with the Monster Association, there is actually very little progress. Now there is a chance to understand this organization in depth in other worlds, and Shen Ge naturally will not miss this opportunity.

The point is that the Monster Association is the apparent controller of Shinkai City. The entire Shinkai belongs to them, so naturally there is no need to hide it like in "reality".

Shen Ge wanted to take this opportunity to investigate who are the members of the Monster Association, and then go back to "reality" for comparison and catch these guys in one fell swoop.

"Brother Yin, you are being too polite. The fact that I can be successful in this world is all thanks to you, Brother Yin. What's more, I have just been promoted to deputy captain and I need achievements to consolidate my position. Brother Yin, you have given me such an important task, how can I refuse?" Shen Ge said seriously.

Yin Hu laughed and said, "Hahaha, Brother Shen, I knew I was right about you. Then you should have a good rest these few days, and I will notify you when the peace negotiation team is ready. At that time, you should set off with the logistics team to hide your identity."

Shen Ge and Yin Hu discussed the issue of the peace talks for a while. To put it simply, Xinjing had seized upon the issue of the granary base as evidence of Xinhai's internal strife. Regardless of whether the country was stable or not in the doomsday, Xinjing, Xinhai and Xinguang were all one family.

Right now is a critical moment for the survival of mankind. Instead of helping each other and jointly creating the future of mankind, Xinhai is secretly trying to trip up Xinjing.

If this matter were to get out, Xinhai would definitely be suppressed from all sides. In addition, the food supply line in Xinjing has been cut off, and there is a high probability that riots would occur in the city.

Xinjing saw that Xinhai would choose to make a big deal out of a small matter this time, so he planned to take the opportunity to "extort" him, and put the matter of stealing the Monster Association's research data on the agenda.

Shen Ge came out of Yin Hu's office. He was now a popular figure in the organization, so naturally many people came up to him to curry favor with him.

Shen Ge is different from the previous deputy captain who had a conflict with Yin Hu. He can be said to be Yin Hu's "confidant". The team members can curry favor with him without having to worry about Yin Hu's displeasure.

Two hours later, Yin Hu, who had just returned from the organization meeting, let everyone go home early as promised and went to Xin Wang Fu to hold a celebration banquet for Shen Ge.

The members of the Tiger Team all wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Shen Ge. At the table, one of them toasted him with a glass, and another drank a bottle. After learning that Shen Ge's alcohol tolerance was average, they drank even more.

After three rounds of drinks, Shen Ge was completely drunk. He and Yin Hu became close friends and danced arm in arm in the private room, creating a joyous atmosphere.

In the end, Shen Ge was so drunk that he fell down. Li Sixiang from the team wanted to take the opportunity to do something, but was stopped by Yin Hu, who asked someone to find his twin sisters and help them back home.

The two sisters were busy taking care of Shen Ge, changing his clothes that smelled of alcohol, wiping his body. After a long day of hard work, they finally finished and were about to breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Shen Ge sitting on the bed as if nothing had happened. In front of him, a virtual screen was projected from somewhere, and he was sliding to browse the information on it.

"Uh."

The two sisters stood at the door in a daze. Five minutes ago, when they were serving Shen Ge, he was still completely unconscious.

In the blink of an eye, you woke up?
Even a fool could tell at this time that Shen Ge was pretending.

The two sisters were neither angry nor not angry. If they were angry, they knew that others were their "masters" and it was their duty to order them around. At most, it was a little weird.

Don't be angry, the two sisters were so tired that they couldn't even lift their arms, but this guy acted like nothing happened. Who wouldn't be depressed?

"Master, are you... okay?" An An asked tentatively.

Jingjing asked with a wooden face: "Master, would you like some tea?"

"Make a cup to sober you up. Thank you." Shen Ge said with a smile.

Jingjing muttered, "Wake up, you big-headed ghost," gritted her teeth and went out to make tea. An An obediently walked forward and massaged Shen Ge's shoulders.

"Master, where is this screen projected from?" An An asked curiously.

Shen Ge raised his left hand, and there was rotten blood wriggling on it. It was the screen projected by the red mist armor.

The screen displays information about the Tiger team members, ranging from their living habits to their personal abilities.

When Shen Ge went to the Tiger Team office, Xiao Qi took the opportunity to leave two blood spiders behind, invaded the Tiger Team's information database, and copied the information. Shen Ge flipped through the Tiger Team's information and said casually, "Xinjing and Xinhai are preparing for a new round of exchanges. I may go to Xinhai with the team at that time. Do you plan to stay here or go to Xinhai with me? If you stay here, I will arrange for someone to ensure your safety."

An An was stunned at first, then said excitedly: "Master, you want to go to Xinhai? I, we also want to go with you, we promise that we will never cause any trouble for you!"

Jingjing just came back from making tea, and when she heard that Shen Ge was going to Xinhai, she immediately came forward excitedly. The two sisters had been worried about their missing mother, and even if it was dangerous to go to Xinhai this time, they would not miss this opportunity. What's more, they now have a "backer", so naturally they have more thoughts in their hearts.

"Go ahead. We need your help with something this time." Shen Ge turned off the information of the Tiger Team members and asked Xiao Qi to retrieve the data about Xin Hai from the Tiger Team database.

An An nodded and said seriously: "We will do whatever the master tells us to do, and we will definitely be obedient."

At this time, the left side of the screen showed a map of Xinhai City, and the right side showed some key landmark buildings. Shen Ge looked at the screen and asked, "Has Xinhai changed since you were there?"

The two sisters looked at it carefully for a while and shook their heads. "It hasn't changed much, but I remember that the spire building... didn't seem to be this high. Because it is located in the east when we look at it from our house. My sister and I like to watch the sunrise, so we often pay attention to this spire. It wasn't this high before. It seems that from here on, it should have been newly built in the back."

An An pointed to a location in the middle of the spire of the landmark building on the screen and said.

The reason why Shen Ge paid special attention to this spire was largely because in his previous trips to the dream world, the escapes from the world were all related to rooms full of eyes in this type of building.

The "weird eye" that he uses most often now was obtained in a room full of weird eyes in the future Rong City, so he has always wanted to figure out why there is such a building in the destroyed world, and coincidentally there is such a room.

"Do you know what that building is used for?" Shen Ge asked.

An An and Jing Jing looked at each other and shook their heads.

Jingjing suddenly thought of something and said, "Although we have never been to that building and don't know what is inside, I have seen Dad's orders. A large amount of supplies are delivered to the spire every month, and the spire is guarded by the most strict in Xinhai City."

"Oh, I remember now. I heard my dad talking on the phone with a colleague from the Xinhai Association. He said that the research department or institute or something would be moved to the spire, and many officials of the association would also live there. It's probably something like a city hall." An An suddenly said at this time.

The Xinhai Association that An An mentioned is the "Monster Association" in Xinhai City. Although monsters have always regarded monster bodies as superior to others, they naturally will not confirm their monster identities to the outside world.

After all, with the apocalypse wreaking havoc, humans are already living in panic. If they knew that the "head humans" controlling them are no longer real people, I am afraid that this panic would continue to amplify.

Once people start to panic, they are likely to do irrational things, and even think about overthrowing the "rule" of the Monster Association.

Even though the Monster Association is "superior", monsters are infertile and they still expect these humans to transform into more companions. They can only package the association and turn it into an organization where monsters and humans "work together" to achieve a win-win situation.

But in reality, the real people in power are still weirdos.

Shen Ge pulled out a few photos of the people in power in Xinhai City and asked the two sisters, "Have you seen these people?"

An An pointed to a white-haired old man who was about 60 or 70 years old and full of energy and said, "This man is the president of the Xinhai Association. I've seen him on the news."

The president of the Xinhai Association was previously the mayor of Xinhai City.

After the end of the world, the whole world fell into chaos. The fall of cities one after another forced the country to concentrate its power on core cities.

As a result, the power of these former "mayors" has continued to expand, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are real "local tyrants."

But according to intelligence, this old president is a genuine "human", which means he is definitely not the real person in power.

"Where are these people?" Shen Ge asked, pointing at the others.

An An shook his head.

She stared at the screen quietly for a long time, as if trying to recall whether she had ever seen these people before, wanting to help as much as possible.

"What's wrong?" Shen Ge asked curiously when he saw Jingjing staring at a photo.

Jingjing hesitated for a moment and asked, "This person... I remember seeing him on the news before. He was always beside the president. I don't know if I remembered it correctly, but he looked familiar. The president was on the news before, maybe I remembered him then?"

Jingjing's tone revealed a lack of confidence. She didn't want to provide Shen Ge with wrong information because of her own misjudgment.

An An said, "My sister has had a very good memory since she was young. Her teacher even said she had a photographic memory. My sister thought he looked familiar. Maybe he really had been following the old president. It's a pity that I can't find the old video, otherwise I could verify it."

"Who said we can't find it?" Shen Ge asked Xiao Qi to copy the Tiger Team's information database. The Tiger Team was one of the detachments that had mainly dealt with Xinhai, and there was a lot of their information in the database.

Xiaoqi pulled up several early videos of press conferences in Xinhai City. The content ranged from changes in the city's emergency measures to the expansion of positions, or major victories in the fight against ghosts. In short, it was the old world's news that only reported good news and not bad news.

However, what they were watching were not Xinhai's old news, but to verify whether the "familiar" person Jingjing saw had been following the old president before.

The investigation revealed that in the old videos from a few years ago, this man was always dressed in a black suit and sunglasses, appearing as the "bodyguard" of the old president.

Although his image changed drastically a few years later and his identity became the secretary-general of the association, he was still discovered by the sharp-eyed Jingjing.

Shen Ge compared the previous videos and found that this person would often take the initiative to "remind" the old president when he was speaking, or do things like passing him notes.

It is not surprising that an assistant would pass a reminder at a critical moment, but the key point is that the time for this person to "remind" is basically when the old president is about to make an important decision.

Shen Ge suspected that this person was actually one of the real "power holders" in Xinhai City. (End of this chapter)
