Chapter 902
The Gemini Branch is still operating normally?
Hearing the middle-aged little flower man's words, Li Ang couldn't help but be stunned.
Regarding the fate of the Gemini Branch, he and Nicole had imagined many situations, but it was nothing more than partial escape, all being caught, or even the entire army being wiped out, etc. Only he had never thought that the Gemini Branch could still operate normally.
After all, Atifi 01 directly took action to "attack" the Gemini Branch, and also suspected of controlling the royal family of the Kewangguo, which was almost equivalent to clearly setting up a battle to fight against the Cleaning Bureau. Why keep those cleaners?
"Are the people of the Gemini Branch controlled?"
After frowning and pondering for a while, and only thinking of such a possibility, Li Ang asked tentatively:
"For example, inserting some strange things into the brain, or being influenced by some anomalous objects, or their relatives and family members they care about are residents of the Kewangguo and were directly caught?"
"Not clear."
The two little flower men shook their heads in unison upon hearing this, and then the older little flower man said:
"Chief Edward once thought about whether to catch someone from the Gemini Branch to ask, but none of the people we brought this time are good at this, and there is no ability to clear memory afterwards. Once this is done, it will definitely alert the other party.
Considering that the situation of the royal family is not yet clear, Chief Edward temporarily gave up this plan and changed to first determine the situation of the royal family and the location of the main body of that Atifi 01."
"Then do you have any results? Have you determined the situation of the royal family?"
"Uh... not yet..."
The two little flower men looked at each other and said helplessly:
"The terrain of the Kewangguo is too complex, with a full eight hundred blocks, and it often changes. Mona's ability consumption is not small. The Chief and the others spent a lot of effort, and only checked thirty-something blocks.
And what's more fatal is that in a few days, the Kewangguo will hold a celebration. By then, most of the blocks will change positions and be rearranged. After the thirty-something blocks that have been checked are moved, it is estimated that they will all be checked in vain."
"..."
So you checked for nothing?
After shaking his head speechlessly, Li Ang carefully asked about the progress of the Scorpio Chief, and then frowned:
"Two seniors, Chief Edward's investigation method is a bit too long, and whether it can succeed in the end mostly depends on luck. If the luck is not good, it is possible to be dragged on like this."
"Chief Edward also said similar words."
The middle-aged little flower man nodded and said helplessly:
"But after we added it up, we found that there was really no good way. Considering that the royal family members of the Kewangguo might have been controlled by Atifi 01, in order to avoid stimulating it and causing injury to the royal family members, we had to take it slowly."
Forget it, with your investigation method that depends on luck, if you really want to find out something, I'm afraid you will have to check until the day the Watchtower Palace is in disrepair.
"Two seniors, my words may be a bit unpleasant."
In the nervous expressions of the two little flower men, Li Ang frowned:
"But if you check like this, it will definitely not work. I even have reason to suspect that the other party has actually discovered you, and is just using this method to delay time.
So I hope you can help me contact Chief Edward. I want to discuss with him to see if we can try my method first."
"This... it's also okay."
After looking at each other, the middle-aged little flower man reached out to support the petals on both sides, crawled out of the onion-sized bulb of the green plant, then dug a small hole in the flower pot, and stuffed a small seed into it.
Immediately after, he covered the dug soil back, then didn't know where to take out a small pocket watering can, and poured a little water on the place where the seed was buried.
"Puff"
Only hearing a faint sound, the plant with short soft hairs growing upside down on the tender stem of the root gently and quietly topped the soil on its head, and then in Li Ang's surprised gaze, it climbed two circles along the edge of the flower pot and revealed flower buds toward his direction.
This is... morning glory?
Looking at the plant that completed the whole process of growth and germination in less than two seconds and bloomed more than a dozen pink, red, and purple trumpet-like gorgeous small flowers, Li Ang couldn't help but blink in surprise, and then under the gesture of the middle-aged little flower man, he leaned down and asked tentatively:
"Chief Edward?"
"..."
After a few seconds of "delay", from one of the morning glories closest to Li Ang, the voice of the Scorpio Chief, which was a bit surprised, actually came.
"Li Ang?"
Good fellow, not only can he become smaller and hide in the flowers, but even planting a morning glory can be used as a loudspeaker. This ability is really interesting.
After looking at the middle-aged little flower man wearing a grass-leaf suit in surprise, Li Ang responded:
"It's me."
"I certainly know it's you."
The Scorpio Chief on the other side of the morning glory said with some confusion:
"But shouldn't you be just getting off the airship and arguing with the Minister of Foreign Affairs now? Why did you suddenly contact me?"
"The Minister of Foreign Affairs was coaxed away by me, and I am with..."
Speaking of this, Li Ang glanced at the two little flower men slightly, and then continued:
"After communicating with the two seniors, I feel that the situation seems to be wrong, so I want to discuss with you to see if we can change the investigation method."
Want to change the investigation method?
After hearing Li Ang's words, the Scorpio Chief on the other side of the morning glory was silent for a few seconds, then said:
"Give me a reason."
"If it's a reason... we have likely been exposed."
Recalling some common sense about the Kewangguo heard from the female reporter, Li Ang frowned slightly:
"Just now the two seniors told me that because the blocks of the Kewangguo change frequently, your investigation progress is unusually slow. But in fact, although the blocks of the Kewangguo do change frequently, they shouldn't be so frequent."
"Tell me in more detail."
"In more detail, among the six types of blocks in the Kewangguo, the four types of living, residential, administrative, and scientific blocks have relatively stable personnel flow and usually have no need to move, so they are generally rarely moved.
Only the production and military industry blocks, because they involve a large amount of raw materials and finished products, need to frequently dock with blocks such as airports, so they often need to change positions."
Except for production and military industry types of blocks, other blocks will not move frequently?
After hearing Li Ang's words, the Scorpio Chief on the other side of the morning glory recalled the situation of the blocks they had investigated these days, and his brow couldn't help but twist involuntarily.
If those blocks that usually don't move frequently have suddenly started to change positions frequently recently, the reason is naturally only one, which is to slow down his investigation speed. So the investigation he originally thought was hidden enough had probably been seen in the eyes of others long ago.
"I understand what you mean."
After judging that he had likely been exposed through the information provided by Li Ang, the Scorpio Chief pondered slightly, and then said decisively:
"What are you going to do?"
"I plan to take a 'guaranteed bottom' first."
Li Ang thought for a while and said:
"You also know that the situation that the Bureau cannot accept the most is the total destruction of the Kewangguo royal family, leading to a decrease in the effectiveness of the Watchtower Palace.
And since we now have the status of a delegation, we can legitimately contact the royal family members of the Kewangguo, so why not avoid the worst result first, catch ten or eight princes and princesses, and talk about it first!"
