No strange things are allowed to evolve!

Why is this happening so abnormally?

Just then, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Consultant Liu walked in from outside.

Upon seeing that Jiang Shu had woken up, she immediately rushed forward.

"Awake?" she asked with a smile. "How are you feeling?"

Jiang Shu remained wary of this person.

The other party is the prized disciple of the Venerable Wuzheng, a master of love and desire, and is likely also an evolved being of the spiritual root of love and desire.

As the saying goes, like repels like and opposites attract, Jiang Shu had to be extremely careful when facing an evolutionary with the same spiritual root who was far superior to him in both experience and strength.

Because the other party clearly understands the methods of the Love and Desire Spirit Root better than others, and certainly won't be like other evolved beings who don't invest any points in Charm, on the contrary, they might even have a very high level of Charm, so Jiang Shu doesn't know if her Charm will be effective on the other party, and she doesn't want to try it lightly.

In short, the other party is not so easy to deal with.

Jiang Shu thought he would never see her again after meeting her at the Bureau of Different Principles, but he didn't expect her to come this time.

He certainly didn't think that Consultant Liu, whom he had only met once, would care about him so much.

Considering the hidden rewards of [Town of Lies], Jiang Shu had already begun to speculate about the nature of this incubator.

Could this incubator be related to the special incubator of the progenitor's spiritual root?

The old man who never quarrels seems determined to obtain the spiritual root of the progenitor of love and desire, and has already begun to plot a strategy to conquer the special incubation site with the Bureau of Different Lineages. If [Town of Lies] is really related to the special incubation site, then at this point in time, his own situation is actually quite sensitive.

The only good news is that the other party is an advisor in the executive department, at least on the surface they are colleagues, so even if she discovers something, she can't do anything openly.

She represents the peaceful elderly.

But I represent the Bureau of Dissent.

Although he is only a fourth-tier operator for the time being, Shen Mo said that no matter what happens, as long as he doesn't break the rules, the Bureau of Alien Affairs can protect him.

"It's alright." Jiang Shu nodded, then feigned surprise and said, "But I didn't expect that Consultant Liu would also come."

"Hmm." Consultant Liu didn't react in any particular way, maintaining her smile throughout: "Seeing that Team Leader Shen was anxious, and since I happened to be free, I thought I'd see if I could help, so I came over. I'm glad you're alright."

"Oh, okay." Jiang Shu didn't say anything more.

"Well, I'm relieved that you're alright. I'll head out now." Consultant Liu picked up her handbag from the bedside table, grabbed a file folder, and waved to Jiang Shu: "Get some rest."

"Okay, take care," Jiang Shu replied.

Shen Mo then escorted Consultant Liu to the door.

"Is it inconvenient to ask about the hatchery because there are too many people here?" Jiang Shu thought.

His intuition told him that Consultant Liu would soon come knocking on his door again.

In short, we'll deal with whatever comes our way.

"Well then, everything's fine here for now. Young man, get some rest." The elder of the Holy Temple instructed, "You're in the Holy Temple's medical ward now, surrounded by our own people. Just call for help if you need anything."

"It's troublesome."

"Of course."

After giving his instructions, the Holy Temple Elder nodded to Snow King's mother and then left with his staff.

After they left, the ward suddenly became much emptier.

Only Jiang Shu, Xue Wang, and Xue Wang's mother remained.

From the moment Jiang Shu discovered Xue Wang's presence, he had been paying attention to her, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

She seemed eager to speak, but Shen Mo and the elders had been talking to her the whole time, so she hadn't had a chance to say anything.

Only then did Xue Wang have a chance to speak to Jiang Shu.

Seeing that most of the people had left, she immediately moved the small stool she had been sitting on and sat down next to Jiang Shu's hospital bed.

"Does it hurt?"

Jiang Shu shook his head: "Fortunately, their goal was only to capture people, they didn't kill them."

After saying that, Jiang Shu was suddenly inexplicably moved.

Everyone else just asked him if he was alright, and they were concerned about other things, but only Xue Wang asked him if he was in pain.

If his mother were there, she would probably ask him if he was in pain first...

Snow King breathed a sigh of relief, then said very seriously, "That's good. This was really scary. Don't do it again next time."

"Big sister," Jiang Shu said helplessly, "I didn't want to either. Everything I've experienced from beginning to end has been forced upon me."

"That's true." Snow King thought for a moment, "Then this time it's not your fault."

At this moment, Xue Wang's mother stood up: "Then you probably don't need me for the time being. You can rest here for the night, and I'll send you back tomorrow morning. I'll talk to Team Leader Shen. You two have a good chat, and I won't disturb you any longer."

As she spoke, she walked towards the door.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she stopped in her tracks: "Oh, right, you should know that there are usually surveillance cameras in hospital wards, right?"

“Uh…” Jiang Shu was stunned.

Snow King quickly realized, "I know! Why did you bring this up specifically?!"

"Just a reminder," Snow King's mother smiled. "Then I'll be going now."

As the sound of high heels outside the door faded into the distance, Jiang Shu couldn't help but feel puzzled.

I feel like... there's a strange trend in the other person's attitude towards me.

Does this count as giving away a daughter?

"Speaking of which," the Snow King suddenly spoke.

Jiang Shu looked at her.

Xue Wang looked out the window at the brightly lit city at night. The orange-yellow light from the ward shone on her face, making her profile look warm and radiant.

"This is really interesting. The night before last I was lying in a hospital bed at the Bureau of Heterodoxy, and today you're lying in a hospital bed at the Holy Temple. Tell me, what do you mean by this?"

She said nonchalantly.

But her fluttering eyelashes betrayed the nervousness in her heart.

Jiang Shu thought for a moment and said, "We've all suffered work-related injuries. By the way, does your church offer high compensation for work-related injuries?"

"...?"

Snow King is no longer nervous.

She even felt like laughing now.

......

After instructing Shen Mo to go back first, and saying that she would personally take Jiang Shu back the next day, Xue Wang's mother took the elevator directly to the top floor of the building.

This is the home of Snow King, or rather, the home of his family of three.

A large, single-level apartment that overlooks the entire city of Tan and occupies an entire floor of the Sheng Tang Building.

Pushing open the study door, Snow King's mother could no longer contain her anger.

"What's wrong with you? You promised to guarantee everything would be foolproof!"

In fact, Snow King's mother had already given the Holy Church President enough face in the ward, attributing Strawberry Milkshake's escape to his absence.

In reality, the president's control over the sanctuary far exceeded everyone's imagination. As long as he was in charge and he was prepared, the other party should have no chance of leaving the building.

"She's just an evolved being on par with Shen Mo. No matter how strong she is, or how many catastrophic skills she has, she can't possibly escape unscathed from your attack, can she?"

She questioned the chairman.

But after she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong.

"what happened to you?"

The president's face was solemn at this moment.

“If it were just her alone, I wouldn’t need to do anything; Elder Sun and those cadres would be more than capable of capturing her.”

"But her skill..."

"Don't you find it strange?" the guild leader asked. "You and Elder Sun have both undergone two sublimations. Even if it's a calamity-level skill, it can't unleash its full power when used by an evolved being who has only undergone one sublimation. Your spiritual roots can suppress her to some extent and discover some clues."

"But we were completely unaware." Snow King's mother realized something and frowned, "Someone helped her?"

"Yes, someone came to her rescue." The president nodded. "It's not that I didn't notice her, but I couldn't spare the time because I was confronting that person."

"Even you can't spare a hand?" Snow King's mother was extremely surprised: "Who is it?"

"Among the rebels, the only ones who can go toe-to-toe with me are those old guys."

The president's eyes flickered:

"Moreover, the other party's methods have a familiar feel to me. Could it be... a strategist?"

“It’s him…” Snow King’s mother was stunned.

"Yes, it's most likely him, and the only person he could personally save is someone closely related to him."

The president pondered for a moment and said:

"If that rebel named Strawberry Milkshake has a close relationship with the strategist, then the kid she's targeting is no ordinary character either."

Can you conquer [Lies Town]?

This whole thing doesn't seem simple at all...

......

Ring Expressway.

Inside a black S680 that exudes understated luxury and sophistication.

The man in the passenger seat had a gloomy expression.

"So, your name has been exposed?"

The girl in the back row, Strawberry Milkshake, said nonchalantly, "So what if we're exposed? We're going to be exposed sooner or later anyway. Once the special incubation facility opens, we can't avoid a head-on collision with them."

Before the man could speak, Hard Candy Bear, who was driving, repeated sarcastically, "So what if it gets exposed? It was going to get exposed sooner or later anyway."

"You think you're so great?" Strawberry Milkshake sneered.

The little gummy bear was startled by the threat, but still stubbornly retorted, "What? I helped you call people, and I said a few words to you, and you're going to repay kindness with enmity?"

The man in the passenger seat frowned: "How can you talk to your sister like that? We're all family, stop with all this talk of gratitude and enmity, it's so awful."

"It wasn't Dad." Hard Candy Bear exclaimed incredulously, "She's the one who caused this trouble! Why are you talking about me?"

Strawberry Milkshake snorted and looked out the window.

The man then lectured Little Gummy Bear: "Your sister must have her reasons for doing this, isn't she your daughter?"

"I just had a sudden urge."

"Look how carefree your sister is in dealing with people."

"I'm speechless." Little Bear's hands gripping the steering wheel were bulging with veins. "I shouldn't have said anything and asked you to come and rescue her. She should have been caught and tortured."

"How dare you!" The man was so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared at his opponent. "Don't you have any sense of decency?"

"If you ask me, isn't that just brainless?" Little Bear Hard Candy muttered. "Look at me, I use a pseudonym when I'm out in the world, but she uses her real name directly and teams up with other people, as if she's afraid of being exposed. Isn't that asking for trouble?"

Strawberry Milkshake scoffed, "What's the difference between your real name and fake name? The style is the same, isn't it obvious to anyone with eyes that you can tell the difference right away?"

Mentioning his name only fueled the man's anger.

But this time he didn't show favoritism to anyone, and even scolded the strawberry milkshake.

"Speaking of this makes me angry. I am called the strategist. I thought that even if you didn't call yourselves empresses or lords, you should at least be called generals and female commanders, right? Look at the names you have chosen."

When you all rise to prominence among this generation of evolved beings, and everyone says, "Oh, these are the strategist's children," how will I be able to hold my head high?

"I like strawberry milkshakes, so I'll call myself Strawberry Milkshake, so what?" Strawberry Milkshake said nonchalantly.

But the little gummy bear hesitated, "I...I wasn't called the General..."

The man sneered, "Blueberries with sauce make you a warrior?"

"hey-hey."

Too lazy to deal with his foolish son from a wealthy family, the man turned to Strawberry Milkshake and said seriously, "Now that you've been exposed, you shouldn't show your face for a while. I'll assign the tasks you're handling to someone else."
