You're sending max-level players to be cannon fodder?

Chapter 42: I think you've gone mad.

"Zou Beikai, male, 27 years old, B-level Alpha, works as a clerk at a newspaper. According to the investigation data, he has had a smooth career and is considered to have a good character by his colleagues and relatives."

In half a minute, Xu Hengzhou impatiently gave a rough explanation.

He felt he was desperate and grasping at straws, placing his hopes on Zhong Xun's spiritual tentacles. Was it because of its 100% accuracy?

Yes, that's right. Xu Hengzhou studied late into the night. Back when he entered the Trial Court, he didn't get 100% on any of the question and answer sheets.

Zou Beikai could only see the two exchange a few brief words.

"Since Xiao Zhang hasn't come back, I'll head back." Zou Beikai clearly didn't want to get involved, and cautiously pointed to the next room.

Just as Xu Hengzhou was about to wave, Zhong Xun loudly replied, "Okay, I thank you for your concern on behalf of my cousin."

Xu Hengzhou: "?" Where did this cousin come from?

Zou Beikai was somewhat surprised: "You're Xiao Zhang's cousin?"

"Yes, my aunt said the house was almost covered in dust, so she asked me to come and take a look. I happened to run into Commander Xu, who is a good friend of my cousin. We know each other." Zhong Xun said without changing his expression.

Xu Hengzhou: "..."

Zou Beikai nodded hurriedly, muttering, "The family is quite large."

The iron gate to the emergency exit opened and closed again, and Zou Bei drove back.

Zhong Xun asked Xu Hengzhou, "Is Zou Beikai's social circle complicated?"

Xu Hengzhou shook his head: "It's simple. His parents passed away one after another, and he doesn't visit relatives frequently."

Zhong Xun pondered for a moment: "These days, paper book sales are terrible, and several newspapers in Yandu are barely surviving. If it weren't for their literary atmosphere, they would have gone bankrupt long ago. How could a newspaper clerk like him afford a house here?"

Xu Hengzhou replied, "His parents did business years ago and left him some money. What, you doubt him?"

"Do more research, since you need to commit the crime quickly and wipe all traces clean. The closer the better. He is also an adult male. I just observed that his shoe size is around 43."

"I've compared them, and it's not true." Xu Hengzhou shook his head.

The tribunal's expertise is not in solving cases, but contaminants are only more difficult to handle, so they know the relevant procedures by heart and will not miss anything.

"Okay, let's go," Zhong Xun replied.

Xu Hengzhou: "Where to?"

"Go to the hospital and meet the victims."

Xu Hengzhou: "Deep coma, the doctor said..." He suddenly fell silent, then his tone softened, "Your mental tentacles have this function?"

"Coma is a type of brainwave disorder. Omegas usually have shallow mental seas and poor concentration, but what if it happens?" Zhong Xun said, "We have to try our luck."

  

A month earlier, Xu Hengzhou would have felt it was a waste of his life to hear Zhong Xun say such things, but then he remembered the group of people in the Tribunal whose combat power had recently exploded... all of them had been mentally guided by Zhong Xun. Alphas are naturally combative, and when their mental power surges, they are more diligent in going on missions. The higher-ups have also reduced the pressure because there has been enough pollution in the Tribunal recently.

With extremely mixed feelings, Xu Hengzhou drove Zhong Xun to the hospital.

He instinctively looked down on Zhong Xun, but he had eyes; Zhong Xun hadn't caused any trouble recently, and had actually done everything perfectly as expected. If he truly repented...

"You had a lot of opinions about me before, and you stood up for Meng Jingting several times. Do you like him?" Zhong Xun suddenly asked in the quiet carriage.

squeak--

The tires emitted a piercing protest as the car braked suddenly.

The two were slammed back into their seats by the seatbelts. Xu Hengzhou was stunned for half a minute before turning around and looking at Zhong Xun with an incredulous expression.

It was rare to see such a rich array of emotions on his usually icy face. Zhong Xun raised his hand to signal him to calm down, "Okay, I understand. I was overthinking it."

"You're not just overthinking it, I think you've gone mad," Xu Hengzhou said. Perhaps the "liking Meng Jingting" premise was too much for him, as Xu Hengzhou was forced to add, "Do you know that three days every month, the boss accompanies us to the colonel's training ground?"

Zhong Xun: "...Ah, what's wrong?"

Xu Hengzhou said, word by word: "Not a single one! Listen carefully, not a single one of you hasn't been beaten up by the boss!"

Zhong Xun understood the unspoken meaning: anyone who had ever experienced Meng Jingting's fist could only feel awe and not love.

Xu Hengzhou lowered his voice: "Also, I'm an Alpha!"

Alphas have an innate pheromone repulsion; they are attracted to strength. However, when it comes to matters of the heart, they will resolutely choose either Beta or Omega without thinking.

Zhong Xun reassured him, "Okay, I misspoke. Let's go."

Xu Hengzhou stepped on the gas and drove straight to the hospital.

Zhang Sheng's mother had just finished preparing hot water and was about to enter the ward when she saw two people walking towards her. Having spoken with Xu Hengzhou, she immediately went to greet them, her voice urgent, "Sir, is there any news?"

Xu Hengzhou has a cold personality, and his first impression of people determines the shade of his icy expression. But at this moment, he showed a hint of apology: "We are still investigating with all our might, and we will definitely give you an explanation."

Zhang's mother's gaze softened, but her face was extremely kind, clearly indicating she was a reasonable person. "It's alright, we can wait."

Zhang's mother then looked at Zhong Xun: "And this is...?"

"Please wait a moment, I'll go and call the attending physician."

Xu Hengzhou couldn't just let Zhong Xun receive treatment directly; a doctor had to be present. Moreover, Xu Hengzhou had also made an application to the General Headquarters. Zhong Xun wasn't currently working at the Tribunal's medical office, but they were just one step away from it. He wondered if it would work... Half a minute later, the response came: "[Yes]."

Xu Hengzhou looked at the signature and saw that it was personally approved by the busy Judge Meng.

Isn't the boss on a mission?!

The mission was successfully completed without any casualties. Xie Wencheng wrote the report while smoking a cigarette, thinking that he could get some more sleep when he got back. He turned his head and noticed that Meng Jingting seemed to have authorized something.

Meng Jing slammed his phone down, frowned, and asked, "Don't you have a phone?"

Xie Wencheng: "...I always thought you were very generous and open."

Meng Jing heard a cold voice: "You have no sense of boundaries."

Xie Wencheng: "..." Well, it must be related to Zhong Xun.

The court approved the ruling, and the attending physician, accompanied by two nurses, sat by the bedside, looking at Zhang Sheng, who had fallen into a coma.

The young woman is an only child and is pampered by her family, which is why she landed her dream job.

Her once beautiful face was now like a withered and faded flower petal; no one would want such vitality to vanish like that.

"We can begin," the doctor said intently.

Even in this hospital, there is only one person who can use mental tentacles. Needless to say, the hospital treats them like a national treasure. Even if the other person is an idiot, having this weapon would make them a living advertisement.

The crowd couldn't see the spiritual tentacles, but they could see the previously calm data on the monitoring instruments suddenly starting to jump wildly.
