The general area in southern Noah State occupies 30% of the city's area, and the remaining 60% is made up of slums. The prime areas in the center belong to those extremely rich people, including members of the Investigation Department and the sons of gods. They all live in wealthy areas.
After careful consideration, Shen Zhihe chose a community in the ordinary district as their temporary residence. Although the slums seemed more chaotic, it was actually easier for the local dignitaries to control them than the civilian areas.
However, under the cover of the secretive night, it is almost impossible for them to find them as long as they do not live opposite the director of the Investigation Department. The urban area of Noah State has more than 7 million permanent residents. Both modern and supernatural search forces have already Trying to find dozens of people when it's invalid is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Keeping the Night Curtain can not only prevent opponents from searching for themselves, but if the Federation wants to deal with them, they must first deal with the Children of the Moon who are maintaining the Night Curtain, so they will get a long breathing time, and the Investigation Department wants to quickly wipe out the entire Salvation Alliance plan It has also been declared defeated in the Southern Federation.
But Night is not without any side effects. Its cover-up of secrets will not consider the identity and purpose of the person who unearthed the secrets-this can ensure that the Federation cannot seize any loopholes.
But for this reason, it has become very difficult for members of the Salvation League in different cities to find each other.
Although they can communicate with members of the Salvation Alliance who have also participated in the Moon Ceremony, it is conservatively estimated that they only occupy 10% to 30% of the main combat strength of the All-Southern Federation. The specific number depends on how many Salvation Alliance members there are in other places. Survived.
At least according to the information he got from his initial contact with Moon Child, there was no news at all about many level IV ability users who were well-known within the alliance.
And for the members of the Salvation Alliance who can be contacted through Moon Son, they must also adopt a far more cautious method of communication than in the past. Important information such as specific addresses and member abilities should not be exposed at will.
Although they can protect the Salvation Alliance's information at night, even if they may leave the safe zone for various reasons in the future and be caught by the federation, it will be difficult for them to obtain any "secrets" through spiritual means.
But the night of secrecy could not prevent the traitor from revealing the information himself.
Shen Zhihe has personally seen the betrayer and paid the price.
He would never allow this to happen again.
To sum up, it means that they now not only need to gather the remaining Salvation Alliance, but also establish a new combat plan while ensuring confidentiality.
These are what Shen Zhihe plans to say in the following meeting.
Boom, boom.
Shen Zhi raised his head and glanced at the door, then swept his eyes across the building...
He suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at the corner of the room for more than ten seconds, then withdrew his gaze again.
Shen Zhihe walked to the porch without saying a word, pulled the door handle, and looked at his companion opposite:
"Shaoying, have you seen Xiaolan today?"
Feng Shaoying, who was standing outside the door, was a woman about twenty-eight or nine years old. Her eyes often had a sharpness that made Shen Zhi and He unwilling to look at each other. As a telepath, he could indeed feel the sharpness of the other party. .
Moreover, she is quite decisive in her normal actions, and when fighting, she is so neat that it makes people think that she is in a hurry.
When Qin Luan was defeated, the Special Service Department sent two Level IV members to hunt her down. At that time, Feng Shaoying had no idea what was going on, but she still managed to do it perfectly under the circumstances. Escaped and finally killed directly in front of Shen Zhihe.
This is also related to her ability. Feng Shaoying can highly influence the space within ten meters of herself. She has the strongest melee ability among the three level IV ability users, but she also has several obvious shortcomings.
It was precisely because of this that the Secret Service, which was aware of her abilities at the time, never considered that they would fail.
And when night falls, she is also the one with the most outstanding record among the three.
Feng Shaoying said:
"She seemed to have talked to me this morning about what she was going to do today."
Shen Zhihe walked to the sofa chair in the living room and sat down, keeping the door open as usual.
The third person to arrive was Tao He, who was over seventy years old. This old man with a graceful walk was always the last one to arrive, because Qin Lan and Feng Shaoying always arrived early.
The old man walked in holding the door frame. His old body could no longer withstand any direct battle, but he had the strongest ability to break words among the three people present. If he was prepared, he could kill Shen Zhi and An enemy that Feng Shaoying could not defeat at all.
He is a wizard. Tao He was born in the Eastern Federation, but went to the Western Federation to study at the age of nineteen, and met his teacher at that time. It was not until the age of thirty that he began to study in the Western Federation after his teacher died unexpectedly. Federal invasion.
Although Shen Zhihe had never met Tao He in the past, he had heard news about him. When he was young, Tao He was a real criminal who used the witchcraft he learned to commit many crimes for various personal gains.
After he offended several "big shots" after turning 40, Tao He hid in the Southern Federation and was successfully promoted to Level IV a few years later. After that, he seldom did evil.
Because at this time, the enjoyment he wants can be easily obtained no longer without doing evil things.
He took the initiative to join the Salvation Alliance when he was over sixty years old. At the beginning, he deliberately concealed his past, but at that time he was indeed helping them do various good deeds.
After Qin Luan came to the Southern Federation in person, he took the initiative to go to Shenxiao Walker to "confess".
It is said that he told Skywalker in that conversation that he had realized how stupid he was when he was young. He joined the Salvation Alliance because he wanted to be a good person as much as possible in the future, although there was no way to make up for his past. Mistakes made...
But at least he can contribute his strength and knowledge to saving the world.
And Shenxiao Walker answered him like this:
"I watched the rest of your life and you didn't lie."
But these were all he heard from hearsay. Shen Zhihe asked the old man some time ago.
And he just said:
"Don't believe rumors."
"Be careful." Shen Zhihe said to them, "Qin Lan seems to have a stranger here."
Tao He said with a warm tone:
"She mentioned to me that she has something to announce today. Don't be so nervous. I can guarantee that she is a good girl."
Feng Shaoying said:
"Lao He is right. Do you still doubt Qin Luan's sister?"
No, he suspected everyone.
However, despite Feng Shaoying's answer, Shen Zhihe could still see that she was much more alert than before, but Tao He did not change at all because of this reminder. It seemed that he believed in his experience and vision.
Qin Lan was the last to arrive.
There was no one behind her when she walked in the door, but Qin Lan did not walk directly into the door.
She said straight to the point:
"Everyone, I would like to introduce you to a member of the Salvation Alliance."
Shen Zhihe noticed that with these words, Feng Shaoying's alertness had dropped to normal.
He was the only one who still maintained due vigilance.
"Who?" He asked curiously, as if he really expected Qin Lan to introduce the person to him.
She turned around and looked down the stairs, nodding slightly.
Shen Zhihe heard the rhythmic footsteps, and the other party kept almost the same pause between each step.
Although many times others will maintain a seemingly stable pace, Shen Zhihe has the ability to detect the differences, and he will also rely on this to judge other people's emotions.
The guest instinctively adjusted the frequency of his steps to a level that was pretty close to perfect.
Ma En walked behind Qin Lan and said hello to several Level IV abilities present:
"You guys, I'm Ma En."
Qin Lan led him into the house and began to introduce:
"Not long before that incident started, I personally recruited Ma En into the Coordination Bureau, and my sister had seen him through her glasses at the time. Qin Luan was very optimistic about Ma En.
"When they came to arrest me, it was Ma En who helped me escape from Eastern New South Wales."
Feng Shaoying looked at Ma En and said gratefully:
"Thank you.
"I can't even imagine what it would be like if she fell into the clutches of the Federation."
Shen Zhihe knew that what she was worried about was the impact on the Skywalker.
He deliberately turned his gaze sideways, stretched out his tentacle-like spiritual power towards Ma En with silver luster, and then gently penetrated into the other person's head, trying to dig out possible "secrets".
"Isn't it rude to do this?" Ma En's voice interrupted him.
Shen Zhihe takes back his power:
"Sorry, but I'm a little wary of unfamiliar faces.
"If you don't mind, could you let me check your thoughts?"
Ma En refused:
"No, I think we can get to know each other in a gentler way."
Shen Zhihe narrowed his eyes and said:
"If you say that, I would think you have some secret that you don't want us to know."
Qin Lan also said:
"What are you doing?"
Shen Zhihe looked at Qin Lan and scolded sternly:
"You didn't tell me clearly in advance that he was coming to see us, and I don't feel responsible for our safety.
"And the intensity of his mental defense is different from what it looks like. Not everyone can do this."
"Also, you said that he only joined the Coordination Bureau not long ago. How can you be sure that he is not an undercover agent sent by the federation?"
Qin Lan also reacted somewhat to him. Although she had thought that Shen Zhihe would be suspicious and wary of Ma En's appearance, she did not expect it to be so serious.
Tao He frowned and said:
"She just said that Shenxiao Walker has seen him. Even if you don't believe this young man, don't you still believe her sister?"
Shen Zhihe shook his head:
"No, of course I believe in Skywalker.
"But Shenxiao Walker is not standing in front of me at this moment. I believe in Shenxiao Walker, but I don't believe in you, Qin Lan.
"Actually, I have begun to suspect you very early. You are hiding something from us, and there is actually a doubt. You are the biological sister of Shenxiao Walker. Since she has been captured, how did you successfully escape?
"At that time, they had a machine that could predict the future, and they used it to capture many of our apparent companions. I don't think they would have used that machine on you. You and I both know how powerful it is to predict the future. powerful.
"What you just said seems to answer this question, but in my opinion, you are actually dispelling our suspicions in advance. In fact, there is a reasonable explanation for why you were able to escape successfully.
"You were once controlled by the Federation. I don't know what they did to you. Maybe they modified your memory to make you think that Ma En is a trustworthy companion. Maybe they made you surrender, or maybe they made you surrender. You are not the real Qin Lan at all.
"Even if they didn't do anything to you, what you saw may not be real. It's possible that they acted out a show with you. Maybe he was a federal undercover and made preparations to deceive your sister."
"Qin Lan, I want to believe you, but I can't allow myself to do this.
"As a telepath I often see people making mistakes against their will."
Qin Lan had to admit that what he said made sense. She really shouldn't be able to successfully escape from Dongxinzhou, but Shen Zhihe didn't know how powerful the Abnormal Control Bureau was behind Ma En.
Thinking about the worst-case scenario, even if there is the possibility of this organization colluding with the government, any interests on one's own body are not worth the Control Bureau exposing their existence and technology.
As for the possibility of being deceived, Ma En can indeed manipulate his memory, but if the "Secret Alliance of Salvation" is a lie, Ma En cannot deceive all members of the Salvation Alliance.
If he could do it, there would be no need to do so.
"Don't be anxious." Qin Lan said, "I can understand your doubts and worries. You will understand after I explain the reasons clearly."
Shen Zhihe said:
"That makes it completely clear."
He had actually checked Qin Lan's most superficial thoughts without arousing suspicion. Before he said that, he was sure that Qin Lan didn't think there was anything wrong with him.
But Ma En's resistance made him feel that things might not be that simple.
"No, there is a reason why I don't let you invade my consciousness." Ma En said, "And it's for the same reason as you want to do this. Some time ago, I obtained important information outside and told Qin Lan, and then She and I investigated a lot of issues."
Shen Zhihe said:
"If you keep telling charades, I won't believe you."
Ma En said:
"I didn't make it clear for the same reason. We have to talk somewhere else, Qin Lan..."
She took over and said:
"I will take your consciousness to other places, do not resist, I guarantee it is absolutely safe, please believe me, we will stay here to do this."
Tao He and Feng Shaoying looked at Shen Zhihe.
He paused and said:
"If you can do it..."
call out.
They suddenly appeared in a silver-white conference room. Feng Shaoying and Tao He both looked at Ma En in surprise - they both felt that this was an illusion created by him.
But Shen Zhihe's heart sank because he knew very well that this was not an illusion.
"Now she can't hear our conversation," Maan said.
The silver crescent moon also quietly sank into Shen Zhihe's eyes.
