This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 145 Don’t dare to kill?

"Who is this…"

"Zhang Huaiyuan?" Before Li Ruoning finished speaking, Sun Jingan walked in uninvited, looking calm and composed.

Li Ruoning frowned, but when Li Ming winked at her, she closed the door and left.

"I came here yesterday and was turned away. I thought he knew everything." Sun Jingan sat down and straightened his clothes. He didn't talk to Li Ming at first, but looked at Zhang Huaiyuan. "I didn't expect that little brother Li Ming didn't know anything."

He smiled and said, "Young man, it's a good habit to want to take care of everything yourself."

"However, sometimes you have to do things within your ability. There are some things that you can't handle or touch."

It was interesting to talk about something indirectly. Li Ming laughed.

Zhang Huaiyuan's face flushed, unable to bear the provocation, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Old thing..."

"You go out first." Li Ming pressed Zhang Huaiyuan's shoulder.

Zhang Huaiyuan nodded, calmed down, stood up silently, and walked out.

Sun Jingan seemed to have just seen Li Ming at this moment, and smiled: "Mr. Li, your name often rings in my ears, and today we finally meet."

"Director Sun, you're too polite." Li Ming waved his hand. "I grew up hearing the name of Xingchuang Company."

"Tease me?" Sun Jing'an pointed at Li Ming and said with a helpless smile, "I have heard a little about what happened on Silver Grey Star, but I didn't expect them to go so far."

"You also understand that although someone like me is in charge of a branch of Xingchuang Company, in reality, I just look at the financial statements every day and it is impossible for me to be comprehensive."

"How dare I." Li Ming smiled.

"You are so modest." Sun Jingan pointed at his neck and said, "Now I have to wear this thing when I see you."

"Alas, I can't do anything. Everyone is in danger now. Everyone could be a fire starter. A few fire startsers tried to assassinate me a few days ago." Li Ming spread his hands helplessly.

"Oh?" Sun Jing'an's heart was slightly moved, "Is there someone who can assassinate you here?"

"Yes, you tell me whether it's scary or not." Li Ming didn't want to go into details and sighed:

"At such a sensitive moment, Director Sun suddenly asked to see me. I was also scared."

Li Ming took a sip of water and said half-jokingly: "So, I didn't dare to see you yesterday, and I almost suspected that you were also a fire seed."

"Haha..." Sun Jing'an laughed, his tone casual: "It's not worth wasting my fire just to assassinate you."

"I'm here to bring you something good." Sun Jingan wanted to pick up the suitcase next to him.

However, due to the gene inhibitor, he was unable to lift it up for several attempts.

"let me help you."

Seeing this, Li Ming helped him pick it up and put it on the table. Sun Jingan entered the password and opened it. White mist filled the air and pushed it towards Li Ming.

Li Ming raised his eyebrows. There was an irregular red metal block surrounded by flames. It was obviously of mother ore grade.

"What does Director Sun mean?" Li Ming was puzzled.

"I heard that Xunying Company took a piece of metal mother ore as a gift, so I'll take one too. I can't be inferior to them." Sun Jingan said with a smile:

"Although competition leads to progress, you are somewhat looking down on us by using Xunying Company to compete with us."

Sun Jingan's expression gradually calmed down and became calm: "But it is understandable. After all, there are only a few large companies across civilizations on Blue Star. Apart from those monopoly-level giants, they are the only ones that are decent."

"I know there are some misunderstandings between us, and because of some coincidences, the misunderstandings have a tendency to expand."

"However, I think we can stop here. Cooperating with Xunying Company is far inferior to cooperating with us."

Sun Jing'an crossed his legs and looked at Li Ming, feeling confident.

He didn't take Li Ming seriously at first. At the beginning, Li Ming's development potential was only level eight. Although it was not low, it was not enough for him to put down his face and erase the grudges.

Unless Li Ming comes and surrenders.

However, as the situation developed, this person showed more and more amazing potential. In terms of mechanical craftsmanship, he could even make mechas with his bare hands.

The development potential has reached an astonishing level of sixteen.

This kind of enemy should either be killed as soon as possible or turned into a friend.

He was struggling for a while until Xunying Company jumped out to challenge him and even produced some clues they found from somewhere, almost bringing him down.

After making inquiries from many sources, he determined that these clues came from Li Ming again.

Only then did he make up his mind to make peace with Li Ming.

However, he is also the winner this time, not a loser who comes to surrender, and he wants Li Ming to recognize this.

As for this mother ore, it is a stepping stone for young people. After all, they are young, arrogant and want to save face.

"Cooperation, how do we cooperate?" Li Ming asked back.

"It's actually very simple. Just do for us what you did for Xunying Company." Sun Jing'an clasped his hands together and said kindly, "I also hope that you can help us and appease the people of Silver Gray Star."

"They were bewitched by Xunying Company and have a lot of prejudices against us."

"We will also invest money to establish a genetic association to treat silver-gray disease."

"You want me to backstab Silver Ash Star?" Li Ming smiled and said, "If that happens, I think I will be scolded very badly."

"It's just public opinion that goes with the flow. It will be forgotten after a while. We will help you suppress public opinion." Sun Jingan didn't care: "Do you still care what those people say? Your future will not be limited to Blue Star."

Seeing that Li Ming didn't say anything but just looked at him, Sun Jing'an frowned slightly, "If you continue, it will not do you any good, and it will be even less good for Silver Gray Star. We just don't want to go too far, but it's not that we can't do it."

Seeing that Li Ming still didn't speak, he laughed and said, "Young man, your development potential is indeed amazing, but it is only potential. It is still uncertain when it can be realized."

Li Ming sighed, "I thought you really came here to make peace."

Sun Jingan frowned, "Isn't it?"

Li Ming shook his head and said nothing. He thought the other party was here to apologize.

The other party thought that he was here to give him a chance, so he messed up and ignored it.

Sun Jingan was a little impatient. "I don't understand. Where do you get the confidence to fight us? Wu Yanqing? Or who else?"

Sun Jingan shook his head, closed the suitcase again, stood up, straightened his clothes, and said disappointedly: "Since we can't reach an agreement through negotiation, let's go to war. Xunying Company will definitely lose, and Silver Gray Star is still under our control."

"When you are truly capable of making me surrender, it will be hard to say whether Silver Gray Star can still be inhabited."

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Li Ming say calmly: "Did I... let you leave?"

Sun Jingan shook his head and chuckled, "I won't stay here for dinner. I've already made an appointment with Duke Bai Ye, so I won't see you off."

Just as he was about to take a step, a sharp numbness and pain shot up from the soles of his feet to his forehead, and his whole body couldn't help but collapse on the sofa.

His eyebrows twitched and he turned his head with difficulty, only then did he see the arc of electricity dissipating from Li Ming's fingertips.

Sun Jingan felt uneasy and shouted, "What do you want to do? If you dare to take this opportunity to beat me up, I will fight you to the death!"

"Beat me?" Li Ming couldn't help laughing. He took out a three-edged dagger from somewhere. It flashed with a cold light. He pressed the button on the handle and it vibrated at a very high frequency. Li Ming shook his head: "You just threatened me, but you thought I just wanted to beat you?"

"What...what do you want to do?" Sun Jingan couldn't help but feel shocked, and a huge fear surged in his heart.

But he still didn't believe that Li Ming dared to kill him here.

"I am the regional director of Xingchuang Company. If you kill me, Xingchuang Company will not let you go." He shouted repeatedly.

"T-C22 hypersonic missile." Li Ming suddenly spit out a few nouns.

Sun Jingan was terrified and frightened. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened in disbelief: "You, how did you know about this batch of missiles!"

"You, Xingchuang Company, are really brave to sell arms to the Torch Organization." Li Ming walked behind Sun Jingan, put his hands on his shoulders, and leaned forward slightly: "Is there anyone else behind you?"

"No, no..." Sun Jingan shook his head repeatedly, "We didn't know the buyer was Torch!"

"Are you stupid or am I stupid?" Li Ming smiled: "In the Silver Star Cluster, who would buy such a large quantity of arms for no reason? You can figure it out if you use your brain."

"Also, your Xingchuang company was not found in this screening. Either you really don't have any problems at all, or the problems are so big that they are unimaginable."

"You...I..." Sun Jingan completely lost his support.

He was puzzled at the same time, because he and Fu Zongchen were the only two people who knew about this.

There is no way the information could have been leaked from him, so it could only have been Fu Zongchen.

But Fu Zongchen had died a long time ago, and he had a grudge against Li Ming, so there was no way he could tell Li Ming.

Wait…his vault!

Sun Jingan's pupils contracted, "Yes, it was you who... killed..."

Before he could finish his words, Li Ming covered his mouth with his hands. The dagger went around his neck from the back to the front, slowly cutting a hole, and blood gushed out.

Sun Jingan's body twitched constantly, his eyes widened, and the gene inhibitor became tighter and tighter because of his struggle.

Sun Jing'an was not a B-class life form, but only a C-class life form. However, his vitality was very strong. It took more than ten minutes for him to die completely after his throat was cut.

Li Ming wiped the dagger, opened the suitcase, absorbed the mother ore inside, then opened the door and walked out.

Zhang Huaiyuan was standing not far away. He quickly came over and looked at the reception room behind him. He whispered, "Where's the old guy?"

"Dead." Li Ming said casually.

Zhang Huaiyuan stopped walking suddenly, "Dead, dead!?"

He swallowed, "Brother Li, you are not kidding, he..."

He stopped talking halfway, turned around and rushed to the reception room. Li Ming frowned: "Don't mess up the scene."

Zhang Huaiyuan opened the door, and the strong smell of blood choked him so much that he couldn't open his eyes. Sun Jingan was lying on his back on the sofa, glaring with anger.

Really, really dead?
Zhang Huaiyuan was trembling with fear. Even though he disliked this old guy, the thought of killing him had never entered his mind from beginning to end.

On the one hand, it is because the other party’s status is too high, and on the other hand, it is also because of years of education.

He staggered and almost fell to the ground, but he still closed the door and walked to Li Ming with a pale face, "Li, Brother Li, what should we do about this?"

"That's it, I'll go notify others." Li Ming said casually.

Zhang Huaiyuan seemed not to hear it, and gritted his teeth and said, "Well, let's say I killed him, it was me..."

Li Ming stared at him and laughed, "Can you handle such a big pot?"

"Okay, let's find a place to rest."

He left on his own. Some people greeted him on the road and he responded one by one.

He walked out of the laboratory and headed into the temporary command post. He looked around and found a familiar face and asked, "Who is in charge here today?"

"Several of them are here. They seem to be having a meeting upstairs."

After getting the answer, Li Ming went straight to the second floor and knocked on the door of the conference room.

"…It's been seven days since the blockade…" Chen Jinglong frowned as he spoke, and Ren Cangsong's loud voice started shouting, "Who is it?"

"I... Li Ming."

"Li Ming?" Everyone looked at each other, and Chen Jinglong nodded casually, and the door of the conference room popped open.

Li Ming walked in, his figure was straight, he looked around at everyone, and before anyone else could speak, he said, "Well, I just killed someone, and now I may need to deal with it."

His tone was calm, as if he had killed a fly.

The meeting room fell silent. Ren Cangsong looked serious. "What happened? Who did you kill?"

Li Ming spat out three words: "Sun Jingan."

Duke Bai Ye suddenly stood up and asked in surprise, "You killed Sun Jingan?"

Ren Cangsong hesitated for a while, as if he was trying to recall the name, and then his expression changed drastically, "Regional director of Xingchuang Company?"

But then he wondered, "When did you go out?"

"I didn't go out. He came to find me." Li Ming explained.

Chen Jinglong remained silent, but his brows were furrowed.

A few minutes later, the laboratory's reception room was blocked.

Chen Jinglong, Ren Cangsong and Duke Bai Ye stood in a circle around Sun Jingan's body.

Ren Cangsong's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death.

The regional director of Xingchuang Company was killed just like that?
Chen Jinglong glanced at Li Ming, but he wasn't too worried.

"Gene inhibitor, a C-class life form died so miserably." Duke Bai Ye looked at Li Ming with a vague meaning, "What's your excuse this time? Is he a spark? Or is he going to assassinate you?"

"Reason?" Li Ming said as a matter of course: "I killed him according to the order of His Highness Ford. Is this a reason?"

Sanger, who had stayed out of the matter, couldn't help but frown and asked suspiciously, "Your Highness Ford?"

"Li Ming, don't talk nonsense. Why would His Highness Ford give such an order?"

Li Ming shrugged, "Your Excellency can ask His Highness Ford to come here."

"Yes, it's me." Ford's voice appeared at the right time, with anger on his face that was difficult to conceal. He strode in and pointed at Sun Jingan's body and cursed: "This bastard, how dare he sell weapons and ammunition to the Torch Organization."

"My father had noticed something was wrong a long time ago and secretly assigned Fu Zongchen to investigate. Who would have thought that Fu Zongchen would be assassinated quietly."

The anger in Ford's eyes almost turned into a tangible flame. He looked up and looked around at everyone, finally landing on Li Ming, but pointed at Sun Jingan's body and gritted his teeth and said, "Now I can conclude that this person must have assassinated Fu Zongchen!"

what?
Everyone present was confused at this moment.

　I'm sorry for being late today. Normally it won't be later than one o'clock. I will let you know in advance when asking for leave. Thank you all for your support.
