Chapter 95 Heping Street Office (4)

As soon as Du Zheng raised his head, Fan Shi looked at him, and the Venerable's criticism didn't make the young man feel any shame, frustration or anger.He also put his hands into the pockets of his trousers and looked at him calmly.

It would be even better if Du Zhengyi was just an arrogant little idiot.But Du Zhengyi didn't even deliberately pretend to be disdainful, he listened to him calmly, his eyes were even wide open, and in his pure black pupils there was a good student's thirst for knowledge, as if he really wanted to understand The meaning in his words.And the only puzzle that Du Zhengyi has to solve here is Fan Shi himself. He clearly knows that Du Zhengyi is studying him, as if he is only solving problems, as if he is just a problem on his way forward.He was going to untie him now, and then he could move on, that's all.

Such a young man makes people vigilant. He paced back and forth on the carpet, and his uneasiness continued to escalate. "Do you understand that our world has always maintained a delicate balance."

Du Zhengyi silently followed him with his eyes and asked him.

"Do you know about human atomic bombs?" Fan Shi stopped in front of the red sandalwood desk and looked at the words and said, "For the first time, they obtained the ability to destroy the world. We were worried that they would blow up our world. But the result Woolen cloth?"

Du Zhengyi didn't answer, he turned around and couldn't help smiling, as if he was in class, and he was satisfied with the effect of his teaching. "As a result, the war stopped. Humans did not use weapons of mass destruction, no matter how it was done, and how complicated the process was, but the weapons were shelved after all. There has been no war that has stopped since the birth of man , stopped. Don’t you think this is very similar to our world? It’s just that the weapons we destroy the world are not manufactured, but born, and we are naturally good at attacking and destroying.”

He sighed, but the fire in his eyes was bright. "If we gathered together like humans, it would be a force that could easily destroy the world. Fortunately, our nature has never been as good at integrating as humans. On the other hand, the most prominent individual among us also has the ability to destroy the world , if they possess such abilities and develop such tendencies, we must lock him up underground in Qionglin—just like humans bury and dismantle their nuclear weapons. In all the crises we face, the high-anti-mages have always been It is the most terrifying force."

"I agree with these common senses," Du Zhengyi said indifferently, "This is also my work all the time."

"Yes, you have worked for the committee for many years." Fan Shi interjected. He looked at Du Zhengyi with a serious expression, "You are familiar with the committee's procedures. If you were summoned by the leaders of Gushan, you would Go back to Qionglin with them for questioning, and things will be much simpler than now. What makes you think that you are qualified to ask His Holiness to come here specially for you to hear your appeal?"

Du Zhengyi's face was still blank, "Because I have the clue of the lotus burner? Because Qionglin can't be trusted now?"

"Who confirmed that Qionglin can't be trusted?" Fan Shi's face changed suddenly, and he stared at Du Zhengyi sternly, "Is it based on your feeling? Just because you noticed that one or two middle-level personnel were lotus burners, you just Can the composition of the committee be questioned? In my opinion, most, if not most, of the people who work on the committee are trustworthy."

Du Zhengyi lowered his head slightly, his brows furrowed in confusion for the first time.

"On the contrary, it was you," Fan Shi said, "two years ago your partner Chu Yao was trapped and died in a sandbox imitation. As far as I know, you left that sandbox almost unscathed. When you left Chu Yao is even alive."

Du Zhengyi's complexion finally changed. The accusation was so detailed that the memories he didn't want to recall broke through the finely divided barriers in his conscious world. "I didn't save her because I couldn't save her at that time."

"Another partner of yours died in the sandbox a year ago." Fan Shi said in a flat voice, but the suspicion in it seemed even more piercing. "A few days ago, you almost killed Chu Yao's boyfriend because he asked you about the cause of Chu Yao's death."

"I have already applied not to assign me a partner." Du Zhengyi said firmly.

"Your newest partner is also missing." Fan Shi said.

Du Zhengyi swallowed, thinking that Roach was sitting outside, which seemed like a great comfort.

"In addition, Han Yi was seriously injured because of you, Li Xu was seriously injured, and Zhao Zhiyan was seriously injured." Fan Shi said angrily, "There are far more than these names on this casualty list, right? Even if you treat them as For the enemy, even if they are really the enemy, your bloodthirsty situation is too serious."

Du Zhengyi didn't speak. He never needed to explain, nor could he explain.

Fan Shi looked at him disappointedly, "You have never given a reasonable explanation to the committee, and you have not obeyed the committee's dispatch. In the past three years, you have taken more and more desperation, and your bloodthirsty situation has become more and more serious. Clearly, almost completely derailed from the committee."

As soon as Du Zheng looked at him in silence, Fan Shi lowered his voice into a whisper, "Could it be that you are just Pei Shu's personal weapon?"

"So that's what it means," Du Zhengyi's shoulders suddenly relaxed a little, and he stood a little more casually. He took two steps towards the window, as if he was thinking. "So you want to put the hat of Master Gao Fan on me and Pei Shu? You really want to bury me and Qionglin's Nine Heads as nuclear weapons?"

Fan Shi smiled and said, "How is that possible? Isn't that a little too unbelievable? As your elder, I just want to remind you and care about you. In my opinion, you are a young talent with a bright future. After a few years, it will be logical to become a new venerable. However, Pei Shu spoiled you a little too much. I have always wanted to find a chance to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. But it is still a small tree, if I see you grow crooked, I will be very sad."

"I don't quite understand what your lord means." Du Zhengyi thought for a while and said, "Master Fan doesn't need to go around in circles. Can you tell me clearly what you want from me?"

Before Fan Shi could speak, a meow came in abruptly. Du Zheng turned his head, just in time to see a small black cat squeezing its head through the vines in the window.The black cat looked into the house from the window and meowed again.

"Black cat." Du Zhengyi suddenly smiled, and looked back at Fan Shi, "Does His Holiness know the human legend about black cats? Seeing a black cat is very unlucky."
