From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 204 Recovering the Hard Drive, Countermeasure Plan

Upon hearing You Zhanyu's confession, the guards around him reacted quickly, forming a fan shape to surround him, ready to take action at any time.

You Zhanyu let out a long breath, having accepted the outcome, but still wanted to know the reason for the failure: "Why do you suspect me? This action plan should be perfect."

This plan is indeed very ingeniously designed.

He was in the academy of sciences, but he did not steal the scientific and technological information himself. Instead, he used mental control skills to control a researcher to take out the hard drive.

Then, they made the researcher place the hard drive in a blind spot of surveillance and controlled him to leave the academy, where he died in an alley in the back street.

The illusion was created that the victim, Mr. Liu, was handing over a hard drive to someone in a back alley and then was silenced.

The hard drive never left the Academy of Sciences from beginning to end.

This plan was hidden from everyone at first.

Who would have thought that the researcher who stole the hard drive had died outside the academy, but the hard drive was still inside the academy.

This is completely illogical.

After the incident, as the captain of the security guard, he used his authority to arrange the security work of the Academy of Sciences, and then took away the hard drive while passing by the blind spot of the bathroom surveillance.

If you carry the hard drive with you or hide it somewhere else, it may be found.

After all, Iron-Blooded’s senior inspectors and investigators might possess special abilities to solve cases, so the possibility of finding this hard drive is very high.

If the plan is just this, it is not perfect.

So he had a foolproof strategy, which was to use divine energy to assimilate the hard drive and put it directly into the inventory.

In this way, no matter how strong the Iron Blood's investigative abilities are, they will not be able to find the hard drive.

At this point in the plan, he only needed to hold on until dawn, and when the manhunt was over, he could leave safely.

Then find a time to deliver the hard drive, and the hard drive can be sent out without anyone noticing.

But he didn't expect that someone would find the clues in the end.

"I don't think I've revealed any flaws. Even if you suspected that the hard drive was hidden behind the trash can, you should have been able to identify it as me so quickly." You Zhanyu still wanted to know the answer.

Lu Heng explained: "In fact, ever since I determined that the mind controller was in the Academy of Sciences, I began to pay attention to the reactions of everyone present.

“And I firmly believe that this mind controller must be among us.

"Because he must pay attention to the progress of the investigation so that he can respond at any time.

"If it were me, I would also join the investigation team.

“Although these are all speculations, from the perspective of criminal psychology, they are consistent with the logic of criminals.

“There aren’t that many people following the investigation team, only about ten or so, and some of them are unlikely to have committed the crime.

“For example, me and my teammates, and Captain Jane who came with me.

“After screening through these criteria, the field was narrowed down to six or seven people.

“So I just need to focus on these six or seven guys.

“During the investigation, two people showed impatience and did not want to cooperate.

“One is you, and the other is Zhuo Hongjun.

“At first, I also suspected Zhuo Hongjun, but when he learned about Alex Austin’s appearance, he immediately led a team to arrest him.

“He dared to arrest people without the investigation team, so we can eliminate his suspicion.

“I then offered to go to the bathroom to investigate.

“You took the initiative to ask to follow me, which also means you want to keep an eye on me.

“Actually, you didn’t hide it very well.

“If you want to hide, you shouldn’t pay attention to me or stare at me.

“But if I don’t keep an eye on me, you’ll feel uneasy, and this is an unsolvable knot.

“As for how we finally targeted you, we used the process of elimination.

“The person who took the hard drive must have gone to the bathroom before the iron-blooded cordon off the scene.

“Of the six guards who passed through the bathroom, only you and Choi Sung-ye were always around me.

"In the end, I narrowed my focus to the two of you, but I'm not absolutely sure which one of you it is.

"However, the analysis up to this point is actually sufficient. Let's get a mental interrogator here to interrogate the two of you, and then everything will become clear.

"I finally decided to take a gamble. Since you are the captain of the guard, you arrange the patrol routes for the guards, so it is indeed more convenient for you to act.

"Obviously, my bet was right."

Cui Chengye had a look of astonishment on his face and stared at You Zhanyu with disbelief on his face.

He still couldn't figure it out: "That's not right. The captain doesn't have any mind control skills at all. We have worked together for so long, and we know each other's abilities very well."

Lu Heng flipped open the guard's profile and explained, "I guess it was when he was recruited into the Abyss Battlefield last time that a skill was added or replaced.

"The last time you updated your information, you weren't careful enough." The most recent call-up showed that you entered a Level 3 Abyss Battlefield, but I took a look at the information changes and found that apart from the level, no other abilities were added.

"In a level 3 abyss battlefield, even if you survive to the end in survival mode, you should get some improvement.

"Of course, if you are unlucky, this situation may still happen.

“But there is a problem. You leveled up two levels in this Abyss Battlefield. This means that your battlefield performance is very good and you have at least experienced many battles.

“In this case, it’s a bit strange that there are no other abilities improved.

"This also confirms my guess. You gained a mind control skill in the Abyss Battlefield, but you didn't report it, so it's not in the data."

You Zhanyu lowered his head helplessly, because Lu Heng's analysis was exactly right.

He did acquire a mind control skill last time in the Abyss Battlefield.

Lu Heng pondered and asked, "But there is still one thing I don't understand. Why did you steal scientific and technological information? The fact that you can become the captain of the guard shows that there is no problem with your political review. It shouldn't be so easy to be infiltrated."

You Zhanyu looked up at the ceiling, exhaled slowly, and answered: "Because I was infiltrated in the Abyss Battlefield. In order to survive, I formed a temporary team with a group of White Eagle Federation's superpowers. Otherwise, I would have died in the Abyss Battlefield."

Lu Heng asked doubtfully, "Even if the White Eagle Psychic helped you, this can't be a reason to betray the country, right?"

You Zhanyu nodded and admitted, "Because, I completed a hidden mission with the White Eagle team, but after finishing it, I realized that it was a betrayer mission, but I couldn't go back.

"The mind control skill is also given by this betrayer mission. The rewards for the betrayer mission are too generous. It was only after I experienced it myself that I understood why so many psychics could not resist the temptation even though they knew that becoming a betrayer would cost them a heavy price."

He sighed and continued, "I underestimated you after all. In fact, I have always been on guard against Inspector Li. It was not until you analyzed that the mind controller was in the Academy that I realized that I might be exposed. I was too nervous and revealed my flaws."

Instructor Liu did not expect that after investigating the case for a whole night, the traitor was actually right next to him.

He shouted, "You Zhanyu, hand over the hard drive quickly. Don't even think about resisting. You should know that once you're exposed, you won't be able to get away."

In fact, as long as we are sure that the hard drive is with him, it doesn’t matter whether he takes it out or not.

As long as the scientific and technological information is not leaked, there will be no problem.

Of course, only by seeing the hard drive with your own eyes can you truly confirm that the hard drive has been recovered.

You Zhanyu took out the hard drive, and the guard next to him stepped forward, took the hard drive and handed it to Instructor Liu.

Instructor Liu took a look at the hard drive and ordered, "Send the hard drive for inspection to see if it is the lost one. Formal arrest of You Zhanyu and detain him pending trial."

At this time, Lu Heng raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, there is one more thing to do."

Instructor Liu now trusted Lu Heng very much and asked, "Anything else?"

Lu Heng looked at You Zhanyu and asked, "You should have a way to contact Alex Austin, right?"

You Zhanyu nodded.

Instructor Liu was a little curious and asked, "Comrade Lu Heng, how did you know that he could contact Alex Austin?"

Lu Heng explained: "In fact, I have been asking Su Muyu to use her perception skills to keep an eye on him, to see if he will contact the outside world.

“We didn’t find any action of him contacting the outside world, but we thought that he had the ability of mind control, and he could control anyone present to contact the outside world.

“Not long after I first analyzed the case, word came back that Alex Austin had appeared.

"Isn't it a bit of a coincidence? And the location he appeared in is quite far away. Logically speaking, with Alex Austin's level and combat power, it should be easy for him to escape the search.

"But Alex Austin showed up. I thought of a reason. Alex Austin's appearance was actually to disrupt the rhythm of the investigation and lure us over.

“Speaking of which, this strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain was successful.

“Captain Jian and Zhuo Hongjun have both led the team to hunt down Alex Austin.

"If I hadn't firmly believed that the mind controller was in the Academy of Sciences, I would probably have gone there too."

You Zhanyu exhaled and admitted, "Yes, I controlled a communicator who could contact the outside world and sent a message to Alex Austin."

Lu Heng smiled and continued, "That's right. Since you can contact him, please contact him again and tell him to pick you up at a suitable location."

When Instructor Liu heard this plan, he nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, this is a good idea. You Zhanyu, do as Comrade Lu Heng said. You lead all the enemy spies to the designated location, and you will make up for your mistake."

You Zhanyu had no other choice and agreed.

……

At this time, the general officer in charge of commanding the city-wide search mission learned the news that the hard drive had been found, and personally brought people over to express his praise.

"I have heard about Comrade Lu Heng's investigation process. He recovered the stolen hard drive at the fastest speed. Let's applaud Comrade Lu Heng."

clap clap clap...

Afterwards, several generals in charge of the command discussed with Lu Heng and others and formulated the next action plan.

Let You Zhanyu send a message, saying that his identity has been exposed, and requesting the enemy's spies to pick him up.

The city-wide search continued to confuse the enemy.

The most powerful teams of supernatural warriors lay in ambush at the rendezvous point, ready to ambush this group of enemy spies.
