You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 176 Murder at the Banquet

At the dinner, Gonggong, who had returned from southern Lu'an, was the focus of the party.

He even took away some of Zhou Weiya's glory.

Wars were raging in the south, and the rebels had a new leader, and the fighting was raging. Many people here had assets in the south and were eager to get firsthand information.

There was also a group of people around Zhou Weiya, most of whom were discussing yesterday's attack.

As her adopted daughter, Zhou Jingang was by her side, helping her entertain guests, both familiar and unfamiliar.

The same thought suddenly occurred to both mother and daughter:
"When will this group of people disperse?!"

They glanced at Gonggong from time to time, thinking about what excuse to use to go there and what the first words to say.

After all, Zhou Jingang is still young and thin-skinned.

Zhou Weiya said a few polite words and shook off the people surrounding her:

"Mr. Gonggong has been working hard for the Republic. It's a rare opportunity for him to come to Lu'an. I'll go and toast to you on behalf of everyone."

Having said that, he left everyone behind and walked towards Gonggong.

Seeing this, Zhou Jingang also put down the guest in his hand:

"You are welcome to do as you please. Just call me if you need anything."

Then he saw two women walking towards Gonggong with smiles on their faces.

In the distance, Gonggong's eyes trembled. He looked out the door again, and then he saw his savior.

Chi Ping and his group came in from outside. Wei San seemed not used to wearing formal clothes and felt awkward no matter how he looked at them.

Amelia was wearing a white long dress, which made her look very eye-catching. However, she was very reserved, since it was her first time attending such an occasion.

Although it was also Le Bai's first time, her attention was all focused on the food. Her eyes were shining as she pulled Amelia to the dining table.

Seeing this, Gonggong pushed everyone aside, walked up to Chi Ping, and patted him on the shoulder vigorously.

"You finally came!"

Gonggong grinned.

A group of people followed Gonggong's direction and looked at Chi Ping.

Most people here don’t know the latter, and many dignitaries are guessing Chi Ping’s identity. After all, this guy seems to be very familiar with Gonggong.

Zhou Weiya and Zhou Jingang were both stunned. Things shouldn't have turned out this way!

"How is Lu'an Nanfang?" Chi Ping asked.

Gonggong shook his head.

The rebels and the Ruan officials were fighting fiercely, with large numbers of casualties every day, and border cities were bombed almost every few days.

In order to let Chi Ping know how miserable the situation was in the south, Gong Gong told him a small story.

A resident of a southern border city went to the local official department to apply for a birth certificate because his wife gave birth to twins. When he came back, he found that his wife and children were buried under the rubble.

That night, three more death certificates had to be issued.

Gonggong had said this in just a few words, objectively stating the situation. But Chi Ping could vaguely recall the tragic scene and the man's devastating collapse.

Great joy turns into great sorrow in an instant.

This is not the point. The point is that after the war, thousands and thousands of ordinary people like this died, and those in power may not receive the punishment they deserve.

Take the three occupying countries for example, their leaders just walked away.

Or take the case of King Lacy II, who simply moved to a new place and continued to live a life of debauchery.

Chi Ping remained silent. After a while, Gong Gong started talking about the stone spider again.

Although it is impossible to check who raised the colonized humans, due to the war in Lu'an area, there are very few hospitals that have the conditions to perform organ transplant operations. Gonggong has asked people to check the records of organ transplant operations in all hospitals over the years.

Then it should be easier to follow the records and trace the cause.

Of course, omissions are inevitable, such as when someone asks someone with healing abilities to complete an organ transplant.

Chi Ping mentioned the matter of the golden feathered insect again, and Gong Gong said frankly that if he had time, he would also go and take a look.

As they chatted, Gonggong and Chi Ping found a seat and sat down. During this time, Zhou Weiya and Zhou Jingang glanced over here from time to time.

The former was silent for a while, then said:

"King Kong, what do you think of Mr. Gonggong?"

Zhou Jingang's face changed. She had been hiding her thoughts. When Zhou Weiya asked her, she said:
"Mr. Gonggong is a very popular person."

Zhou Weiya nodded: "So you see, those people are trying every possible way to get close to Mr. Gonggong. This is actually not good. It's easy to disturb him, don't you think?"

This dinner party not only invited the dignitaries, but also those who had been attacked in the hotel that day and had recovered.

For these people, this is a very good social opportunity, and they will naturally try their best to seize it.

Zhou Jingang nodded repeatedly at Zhou Weiya's words:
"They do disturb Mr. Gonggong."

"So..." Zhou Weiya patted Zhou Jingang's shoulder and said, "Go and help Mr. Gonggong and deal with it."

Zhou Jingang nodded repeatedly, stood up and was about to greet the crowd.

At this moment, she saw Zhou Weiya walking straight towards Gong Gong, and said to her as he walked:

"Okay then, I'll go and keep Mr. Gonggong company."

Zhou Jingang paused as he was about to take a step forward. It seemed as if he had been tricked?

She was so angry that her teeth were itching. She was obviously very wronged but couldn't show it.

She looked at Zhou Weiya with a complicated look as he was about to take a seat.

The restaurant was foggy.

At first, the white mist only filled the air under his feet, and Zhou Weiya was still asking: Who arranged the dry ice?
But soon, the white mist covered everyone's chest. The skin exposed under the white mist felt a slight sting.

Soon, the fog filled the entire banquet hall, and all you could see was white.

Chi Ping sat there quietly. He smelled a burning smell and felt a sharp sting on his skin. He vaguely sensed something.

At this moment, a bloody ring rolled to Chi Ping's feet.

Then, screams echoed throughout the banquet hall. Panic, like a powerful bomb, sent guests, both those with business and those without, fleeing in all directions.

The blood on the ground flowed to Chi Ping's feet.

Ikehira followed the path of blood and traced back.

I saw a man lying on the ground, wailing. He stretched out his hands vigorously, trying to grab something to save his life.

Chi Ping grabbed his hand and pulled it gently.

They actually dragged out half a corpse.

At this time, in the white fog, someone could be vaguely heard shouting:
Fragments of words like "bugs", "help", and "eat people".

Chi Ping's face darkened. When he saw the white mist and felt the tingling on his skin, he thought of an insect called a blister beetle.

The tail can release white mist, which is corrosive.

Adding to the previous evil insect ghost, this guy is really lingering.

Fortunately, there are many guests with special abilities in the banquet hall, and the First City Defense Force is stationed outside, so it should not be difficult to solve the problem here.

At this moment, a stumbling figure in the black fog rushed towards Chi Ping.

Chi Ping was alert and alert, but he heard the other party shout:

"Is this Mr. Gonggong? I need your protection."

The voice was soft, even a little coquettish.

Only when the other person walked in front of him did he see clearly that it was Zhou Jingang.

Zhou Jingang's expression also changed: "Why is it you?"

The voice is rough and deep.

Seeing that it was not Gonggong, Zhou Jingang also lost interest in "clamping".
