Soul Invasion [Rebirth]

Chapter 53

In the white meeting room, an hour has passed.

Li Chu found another way, avoiding the question in a way that Talion hadn't expected.

He sat beside Shen Xiu, looked at Talion with Talion for a moment in silence, and said slowly, "It seems that I have cleared my suspicions?"

Talion said, "No, there is one more thing you..."

Li Chu interrupted: "Are we here for Shen Xiu, or for me? Before you continue to interrogate me, shouldn't you hurry up and discuss some more valuable clues?"

Talion frowned and said, "You are far from being cleared of suspicion, don't shift the focus of the problem!"

But Li Chu said loudly: "Don't you start with who or what His Majesty contacted yesterday?"

There was a moment of silence in the room, and then, Marco took the lead and said, "Second."

As if some magic spell had been broken, the members seconded one after another.

Talion looked at Marco, and the latter said calmly: "Talion, there is no need to pursue the suspicion of Li Chu for the time being, we should find the root of the matter first - what ability has affected His Majesty, and how should we help His Majesty? recover."

Talion thought for a moment in silence, and finally said, "Second."

Next, a member of the intelligence team stood up.

Marco, Sara and the member jointly reviewed Shen Xiu's itinerary the day before, and the latter was able to tell exactly who and when he touched some objects after touching it, which made a large number of objects Shen Xiu touched Suspicion was ruled out.

Shen Xiu basically didn't leave Beiting Garden yesterday, and the people he came into contact with were not the members of sgra, but the housekeeper and others who had followed him for many years.

There is no doubt that Li Chu's name appears frequently.

Shen Xiu sat silently on the main seat, his eyes sometimes fell on Sarah, and sometimes he looked at Marco with consideration.

During this period of time, he didn't say a word, and he didn't participate in the discussion of his subordinates. He just thought about it and seemed to be reviewing.

Li Chu also did not participate in the discussion, he leaned over and whispered in Shen Xiu's ear: "Did you already know something?"

Shen Xiudao: "I don't know about these ten years, what do you think I can know?"

The two were very close, Li Chu looked into his eyes and said, "You are hiding something."

“How come you see?”

"It's just my intuition." Li Chu said.

Shen Xiu looked at him for a long time, and suddenly said: "Actually, you also guessed that there is indeed something wrong with that box of pastries."

"You also think I did everything?"

"No." Shen Xiu said slowly, "Someone wants to plot against you. If it wasn't for a mistake, the person who has the accident now will be you."

Li Chu was silent.

The intelligence team finally found the box of pastries.

Li Chu whispered: "Do you always let them discuss in meetings?"

"I haven't held such a meeting—I haven't established an organization yet," said 16-year-old Shen Xiu lazily, "but if there is, it's probably like this. I don't think my power is reflected in controlling their words In terms of thinking and thinking, what I want is their obedience and willingness to work, just like now, although I don’t know most of the people here, but I can feel that as long as I am willing to speak, everything will be like a finger.”

"...You are really confident." Although Li Chu said this, he also knew in his heart: Shen Xiu's control over sgra really doesn't need him to say more, this fact will not change due to factors such as his age or physical condition.

The two whispered until Marco stood up and said, "Mr. Li Chu."

Li Chu thought to himself: The real thing is coming.

Ma Ke said: "Mr. Li Chu, this box of pastries has passed through the hands of five people within two days, including His Majesty, you and the inspector, and the other two are unknown. Now please explain the source of this box of pastries .”

Li Chu got up and said, "It's just a gift from a fan. It's been checked when you enter the door, isn't it?"

Marco said: "With all due respect, the other two people who have touched the pastry box are both contractors. We still cannot conclude that this pastry has not been blessed by supernatural powers; similarly, I cannot conclude that you are the one who sent something fans, not the mastermind behind the scenes."

"I'll say it again," Li Chu propped his hands on the table and scanned everyone, "I have no motive to murder Shen Xiu. All I know is that it was sent by my fans, and you checked it and said it was fine, so I ate it, and handed it to Shen Xiu. For so many days, Shen Xiu and I have never known each other until today, and yesterday we were still discussing what name to use to protect me—to protect our relationship, I..."

Li Chu's voice paused for a moment, then he suddenly lowered his head and said in a nasal voice: "Sorry, I'm too excited."

Hearing his choked voice, Shen Xiu's heart beat almost immediately, and it was so violent that he even felt a sudden pain in his left rib.

Just when he instinctively wanted to stop Marco from continuing to interrogate Li Chu, he suddenly found that Li Chu lowered his head and bared his teeth, with an expression on his face that was numb to himself.

Shen Xiu: "..."

Only Shen Xiu who was beside him could see Li Chu's expression clearly.

Sara, who also got rid of her companion, only saw Li Chu slumped back to her seat after speaking, and felt a little sad for a moment, and said, "Marco, just tell me what evidence you have."

Marco was inexplicably aware of Sara's resistance. He had no emotion, but felt that Sara's interjection interrupted his questioning abruptly, so he could only say: "Mr. Li Chu, we found out that two days ago, you I met an unknown contractor in the bedroom on the second floor, is it true?"

He was talking about Adam.

Li Chu discovered Adam's identity that day and took him to Block H to exchange information. He checked that there were no electronic products in the room, and no Boyd Light had appeared. How did Marco know...

No matter how he knows, he will bring it up to show that he has evidence.

Li Chu couldn't deny it, nodded and said, "Yes, I'm at Block H, and I met Adam."

Marco and Talion exchanged glances.Marco sat down, and Talion continued to ask: "Please introduce this contractor in detail, Mr. Li Chu."

Li Chu consciously introduced Adam Longman as his former partner at the Icarus base. The purpose of arriving at the North Court Garden was to obtain some information. After he found Adam, he persuaded him to go back.

These facts are basically true, and roughly consistent with the information provided by Marco.

Talion asked: "Then how did this Mr. Adam get into the North Court Garden and leave intact?"

Li Chu kept thinking in his mind: How much information does Marco still have not shaken off?How can I cover up Adam so that there will be no flaws and clear his suspicion?

But no matter which angle you think about, Adam has undoubtedly become the biggest suspect.

He secretly sneaked into the North Court Garden, had a private conversation with Li Chu, then left secretly, and then sent a box of pastries, which happened after Li Chu tricked Shen Xiu into eating it...

Talion continued to ask: "After comparison, this Mr. Adam didn't leave any traces of hair in Block H, but the smell he touched the bed sheet is exactly the same as that on the pastry box. So what is his purpose?" , after meeting you, sent this box of snacks right away?"

Li Chu remained silent for a while.

Talion had to say: "Mr. Li Chu, please answer my question. If you insist on keeping silent, then we will take certain measures to obtain your memory."

"Li Chu." Shen Xiu called out.

Li Chu sighed, turned his head and looked at Shen Xiu for a moment.

Everyone was silent, and no one dared to interrupt their conversation.

Shen Xiu's blue eyes were full of gold. He looked at Li Chu seriously, and his voice was always hoarse and deep: "I trust you. No matter what you have done, what you have said, how big you are in any event I'm not going to doubt you, even the slightest bit, until you admit it yourself. Do you understand?"

His expression was very calm, but majestic and solemn.His eyes belonging to the king cast anyone's eyes, which will make people feel fear and awe.

At this moment, Bai Wang Shen Xiu's majesty was fully displayed.Even Li Chu felt the pressure.

Shen Xiu said: "Are you enough to bear my trust?"

"Your Majesty," Li Chu took a deep breath and replied seriously, "If you trust me, just like I trust Adam, you should understand what I think at this moment. Adam Longman is my partner and comrade-in-arms for many years, and we stand side by side Fighting, I have been born to death, and I have been in a desperate situation. Before he talks to me in person, I can't leak his information, let alone doubt or betray him - even the slightest. Because I know him better than I know you longer and deeper."

"I understand." Shen Xiu pondered, "Look at me. Now tell me, does your trust in Adam come from emotion or fact?"

Li Chu said: "...I can't answer this question."

Shen Xiu clasped his hands and said in a low voice: "I'm not negotiating with you. Answer my question, this will determine how I judge your position."

Li Chu closed his eyes.

Excluding all emotional factors, is it possible for Adam Longman to become one of the main messengers or executors behind the scenes?

Shen Xiu waited silently for Li Chu's answer, and moved his index finger lightly, which was his action when he was absorbed in thought or hesitant.

If it weren't for this action, Talion would have thought that Shen Xiu had shown his decisive side.

When Shen Xiu was young, his rationality and restraint were not yet fully mature. He sometimes appeared willful and would ignore the suggestions of others; on the other hand, he was far more domineering than ten years later. Black and white are distinct, and there is no room for a little grit in the eyes.

This period lasted until he became an adult, and it was not until then that his principles of dealing with affairs and the rules he set for Sgra were fully completed.

After thinking for a long time, Li Chu finally opened his eyes, looked directly at Shen Xiu and said, "I trust him because of the fact. I trust Adam not because of how I think of him, but because of who he is. I'm sure he doesn't Actively participating in this, possibly without even knowing it.”

Shen Xiu got the answer, stood up, and said slowly: "I understand."

Everyone then stood up, waiting for his instructions.

Shen Xiu said: "Sara, send a white letter to the special team, telling them to send Adam Longman."

Sarah had to remind: "Your Majesty, your situation is still being kept secret. If we want to notify the special team in the name of interrogating Adam Longman, it may arouse suspicion."

"Sarah, when I ask someone, I don't need a reason." Shen Xiu said indifferently, "If every order I have given in the past ten years has a reason, then it is time to tell them that it is only my request to them." Forgive me, it's not that they are asking about my capital."

Sarah lowered her head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Chu was silent for a moment, then said, "Shen Xiu."

Shen Xiu looked at him and said, "You can rest assured that I am not going to interrogate Adam Langman as a prisoner. Since you will not disclose any information before talking to him, it is very good, he will appear in the in front of you."
