Chapter 1144 - Do You Understand Now?



Chapter 1144 Do You Understand Now?

However, almost immediately, Zhang Han’s expression darkened once again, “However, I also discovered that other than being able to fly freely in the virtual world, I still wasn’t as good as my older brother in the real world and I was still the same trash in their eyes…”

Zhang Han tightly clenched his fists as he remembered his past. “I just can’t accept that, especially after realizing I am a spectral ability user. Then, I began to wonder how I can get stronger than my brother? That was when I began to gather intelligence and information from the virtual world to sell. I used the money I made to buy genetic agents to improve my physical constitution…” After saying all this, he sneered lightly. “All of the money from my family was used to aid in my brother’s development. Why would they think of using it on trash like me? I can only depend on myself. Just like that, I improved bit by bit. However, the more I improved, the more medicinal agents I required which in turn caused me to need more money. Afterwards I crazily gathered information to sell to those who needed it. It is the same now as well. I sold information within the base that isn’t important and information that won’t bring harm to the base.”

“And Master Ming was my main source of information. That’s because Master Ming modified mechas for the best mecha operators in the all the mecha clans so he would receive the most information…” Zhang Han explained the reason why he would go to Master Ming’s place.

“But I didn’t betray the Federation. The information I sold were carefully chosen and were only some unimportant side gossip. The information I sold would definitely not bring any harm to the base or the Federation.” Zhang Han looked at Ling Lan with a determined look on his face. Although he made mistakes, they were not big mistakes.

After Zhang Han finished speaking, the entire conference room became oddly silent. Qi Long and the others were silently documenting the confessions and they also wrote out their own opinions on the matter.

Ling Lan seemingly finished a portion of the documents in her hand before she raised her head and asked, “All done?”

Zhang Han and Wang Junzhi glanced at each other. Then, they stared intently at Ling Lan and shouted in unison, “Yes sir!”

“I understand now. Qi Long, take Major Wang Junzhi back.” Ling Lan turned to Qi Long and gave out an order.

“Yes sir!” Qi Long quickly stood up.

“When you’re there, tell Regiment Commander Pan that Major Wang Junzhi has broken the rules of the military. Let him deal with it and report the results back to me,” Ling Lan said nonchalantly. Then, she put her head back down and used her finger to softly flip to the next page of her document.

“Yes, regiment commander!” Qi Long saluted Ling Lan and then turned to Wang Junzhi and smiled. “Major Wang, after you!”

After hearing Ling Lan’s orders, Wang Junzhi instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He then subconsciously glanced at Zhang Han.

When their gaze met each other, Wang Junzhi quickly turned around to leave… Despite him wanting to know what Zhang Han’s outcome was going to be, he still didn’t dare to stay in that conference room any longer. The pressure Prince Ling was putting on him was too immense. He had a feeling that if he didn’t leave now, he wouldn’t be able to get out ever again.

Wang Junzhi and Qi Long left the conference room. Zhang Han was waiting for Ling Lan to hand out the punishment, but one minute had passed and Ling Lan was still reading the document. Then two minutes, three minutes… Not long after, five minutes had passed, but Zhang Han still wasn’t told how this matter was going to be resolved.

Ling Lan just continued to focus on the document in her hand. She seemed to have forgotten that there was still someone in the conference room waiting for his final verdict.

The others sitting around Zhang Han were also silently sitting in their chairs and writing something on their virtual screens.

“Tell me what you guys think of Wang Junzhi.” Ling Lan finally finished reading through the document before tossing it aside with annoyance as she raised her head and spoke to Li Lanfeng and the others.

“Wang Junzhi is a dutiful spy, very suitable to be bait,” Li Lanfeng started the discussion with a statement.

“There’s definitely something wrong with Wang Junzhi,” Han Jijyun said as he frowned. “I also have suspicions of their mecha clan’s regiment commander, Lieutenant Colonel Pan Shangyu.”

“Just from the excuse Wang Junzhi had given, it actually didn’t make Lieutenant Colonel Pan Shangyu less of a suspect. It made Pan Shangyu more of a suspect instead.” Smiled Xie Yi. “He probably wants us to shift our focus onto Pan Shangyu to save himself.”

“However, no matter what, he achieved what he wanted. We currently cannot confirm our suspicions of Lieutenant Colonel Pan Shangyu.” Li Lanfeng turned to Ling Lan and smiled. “Our regiment commander’s reason for letting him go was to use him as bait to capture all of the people involved.”

Luo Lang calmly added, “Not only that, we can also have those people loosen their guard. Only when they believe that the crisis has passed, would they be confident enough to move their plans to the next step.”

Zhao Jun was silent all this time. After hearing all this, he suddenly raised his head and looked towards Ling Lan. “Regiment commander, I’m confused. Why did we alert the enemy in the first place when we can just silently watch them and wait for them to show up? Now with them having knowledge of us being on high alert, wouldn’t they be scared to make any moves?”.

Zhao Jun’s worry was also Xie Yi’s worry. However, Han Jijyun, Luo Lang and Li Lanfeng were all very calm. It was as if they had already understood the meaning behind Ling Lan’s actions.

Ling Lan smirked and turned towards the three of them. “What do you guys think?”

Li Lanfeng motioned towards Han Jijyun, gesturing for him to speak first.

Han Jijyun didn’t try to be modest and said, “The real spy must make a move.”

Luo Lang added, “Caesar needs information on us to help their foreign affairs officers put the Federation in a difficult position at the Intergalactic United Nations. They would just try to get back their so-called justice and fairness.”

“In simpler words, we can wait, but they can’t,” Li Lanfeng said with a smile on his face. “Our regiment commander’s action only made it difficult for spies who aren’t from other nations but are from different factions within the Federation. It is in case they would create problems for us which would allow the enemy to have chances to do what they are planning.”

“After all, even the strongest hacker wouldn’t be able to find the real enemy in those situations,” added Han Jijyun.

Ling Lan then turned towards Zhao Jun and Xie Yi and said calmly, “You guys understand now?”

“I see. We’re really not good compared to you guys when it comes to thinking about things.” Laughed Zhao Jun.

Xie Yi shrugged and said helplessly, “As expected, I should just focus on my own mecha team.” He couldn’t help but look at Luo Lang with a look of admiration. “It’s so nice that you can use whichever personality is best suited for the situation whenever you need something. Calm personality, long time no see.”

Seeing Xie Yi greet him, Luo Lang pretended he didn’t see him and calmly looked at his virtual screen to continue to write down his opinions on the matter.

“Little Leng, you’re amazing.” Seeing Little Leng showing off his strength, Luo Lang excitedly praised him from his mindscape.

Ling Lan looked towards Zhang Han who was trembling and had cold sweat dripping from his forehead. “Second Lieutenant Zhang, do you understand now?”

Zhang Han only nodded with his head but he couldn’t open his mouth to speak.

“Although you spewed out a lot of reasons at the beginning, I still think that you being here today is the result of your older brother nurturing you with all that he had…” Ling Lan’s finger softly tapped on the tabletop as she half-smiled. “Perhaps, the sedative would be more suitable for your older brother to use.”

Hearing this, the trembling of Zhang Han’s body immediately stopped. In the next second, he raised his head. His eyes were red with rage and fear as he screamed, “No, he doesn’t know anything!”
