Starships of all sizes were like swarms of sharks in space, pounced on the food that smelled of blood. Among the large and small starships, there is even a fast patrol ship, which is Lu Queyun's flagship.
There are already enough starships hunting for treasure, so this fast cruiser is not in a hurry. Instead, it keeps collecting suspicious signals around it, and its course points to the Xu family's flagship that suddenly broke away.
It's just that the flagship of the Xu family fleet didn't know what happened. The signal suddenly disappeared from the monitoring system and was replaced by a huge meteorite. The sudden appearance of the meteorite shocked everyone, giving them an inexplicable sense of absurdity. The lieutenant general was about to speed up and take a look when he suddenly received another signal with a higher priority.
It was a distress signal, and the identity of the sign was Xu Zhanfeng!
The lieutenant general ignored the investigation of the meteorite and quickly drove towards the distress signal. After driving forward for a while, more distress signals were suddenly received, one after another, they lit up like stars, and they were all crew members of the Xu family's fleet.
The lieutenant general became more serious. All signs showed that the Xu family fleet encountered a terrible attack and had to abandon all its cargo and escape. However, the flagship failed to escape. Even Xu Zhanfeng was drifting in space.
Lu Queyun immediately ordered to speed up. Although the armor can ensure safety in space, no one can say whether the armor is damaged or not. Naturally, the sooner the better, otherwise if someone dies in the war zone, he, the commander of the war zone, will bear some responsibility.
With a clear signal, positioning was easy, and not long after, Xu Zhanfeng was sitting in the flagship conference room. He was holding a cup of hot coffee and drinking it slowly. His hands could not stop shaking slightly, and there was almost no blood on his face.
After drinking a cup of coffee, he still couldn't feel the temperature, so he shouted: "Bring me some wine, something strong!"
The waiter brought a glass of wine. Xu Zhanfeng took it and smelled it, then threw it to the ground and said loudly: "Why are you messing with me with this crappy wine? Can I buy it? Call Lu Queyun over!"
The waiter was frightened, and while hurriedly picking up the pieces, he said, "I'll give you another drink right away!"
Xu Zhanfeng snorted and said, "I want a bottle."
"Yes, yes." The waiter quickly withdrew.
A moment later, when the Lieutenant General walked into the living room, the wine bottle in Xu Zhanfeng's hand was already half empty. He stared at his bloodshot eyes and said to the lieutenant general: "Lu Queyun, you are awesome! You dare to steal our Xu family's things openly. You are really awesome! I admit defeat this time. Since I fell into your hands, what do you think?" Just say it if you want to kill me, there is no need to hide it! My old man will avenge me, and I will pay back tenfold for what I did today!"
The lieutenant general smiled and said: "Don't be angry right now. We are investigating exactly what happened. Until now, I don't know what happened. Just hope you are fine. There is no rush now. Let's drink first." Order something and wait until your body recovers a little."
"Drink? Do you just drink this kind of thing?" Xu Zhanfeng shook the bottle vigorously.
The sullen look on the lieutenant general's face flashed away, and he said calmly: "This is the only one in the army. To be honest, this bottle is my private collection."
Xu Zhanfeng sneered, turned the bottle mouth downward, and poured the wine on the ground in front of the lieutenant general.
No matter how good-tempered Lu Queyun was, his face was livid with anger at this moment. At this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded at the door: "Your hands are shaking, are you afraid of something?"
Hearing this voice, Xu Zhanfeng shuddered subconsciously and almost dropped the bottle on the ground. After he calmed down, he saw Lin Xi appear, striding towards him.
Xu Zhanfeng subconsciously took two steps back, then felt that he had lost face, so he returned to the same place, and said bravely: "You, what are you going to do? I'm warning you, don't, don't mess around!"
Lin Xi gently touched her hair and said, "Does it feel good to float in space?"
Xu Zhanfeng couldn't help but take another step back, "What are you going to do?"
"It's nothing, I just came to have a drink with you." Lin Xi took the wine bottle from Xu Zhanfeng's hand, took two more cups, and poured one cup each for herself and Xu Zhanfeng.
After clinking the glasses gently, Lin Xi drank it all in one gulp.
Xu Zhanfeng was a little hesitant, and he didn't understand what Lin Xi meant. He was worried and drank the glass of wine tremblingly. The more Lin Xi acted as if nothing had happened, the more he felt that there must be a conspiracy. He was not afraid of Lu Queyun, but Lin Xi was different. Not to mention the Lin family, just because she dared to beat him up in public to the point of losing all face, he knew that she might not be able to do anything.
"No matter what, I have to thank you." Lin Xi looked very serious.
The more she behaves like this, the more abnormal Xu Zhanfeng feels. It wouldn't work if I didn't say something at this time. At least I still represented the Xu family's dignity. If word got out, my reputation would be completely ruined.
"Thank me for what? Materials?"
Lin Xi's expression did not change and she motioned for him to continue.
Xu Zhanfeng took a deep breath, simply gave up, and said: "No matter what excuse you use, you can't change the nature of the matter. You robbed this batch of supplies. Do you think that sending an unknown person to do it can take care of everything?" Are you abdicating all responsibilities? Are you treating us like three-year-old children? This batch of supplies..."
Lin Xi was a little surprised and interrupted: "You just said that there was only one person who attacked you?"
"It seems... yes?" Xu Zhanfeng was also startled. Looking back on this matter, it is indeed strange. He has an entire escort fleet under his command, and there are thousands of sailors and over a hundred Marines in the flagship. How come it seems that someone breaks through the defense line in an instant, and then in the blink of an eye, the enemy is in front of him? Are all his fleet dead?
Lin Xi's heart moved, and then she suppressed the strange feeling.
Xu Zhanfeng also fell into deep thought. It wasn't until Lin Xi called him twice that he came back to his senses.
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Xi was a little curious.
Xu Zhanfeng glanced at her and said, "Maybe you really didn't do this."
Lin Xi was a little curious, "Why do you think so?"
"You really have such talents under your command. They have been used on the frontal battlefield for a long time. Why wait until now? Moreover, once such people go to the battlefield, they cannot be suppressed at all. At least so far, I have not reported it in the battle report. I see people like this exist.”
Lin Xi had already thought of something in his mind, so he smiled naturally and said, "The attack on you indeed has nothing to do with the Ninth Fleet."
Xu Zhanfeng was a little surprised by her sudden softening of attitude, but he still said: "Even if you didn't do the attack, the supplies will still be used by you. Besides, I believe you are useless."
"The Xu family doesn't need to believe it. Do you know why I said I should thank you just now?"
Xu Zhanfeng shook his head, thinking that you can't thank me for not being able to beat you in the arena, right? Thank you or not, I can't beat this.
"Because you made me make a decision that I should have made a long time ago."
"What is it?" It was Xu Zhanfeng's turn to be curious.
"Keep it secret."
