Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 184 The mission was intercepted.

Since there was no one around, Xia Jiumeng sent a message to Qin Che via mobile phone, then simply washed up, changed clothes, and returned to Linkong.

After riding a random motorcycle from the garage at Qin Che's base, he walked directly from the accelerator.

When I reached the edge of Linkong's suburbs, I looked at my phone and found that Qi Yu had not replied to my message.

It has been several hours. Qi Yu has never gone so long without replying to her messages before.

After thinking about it, I called Assistant Tang and asked him if he could contact Qi Yu.

"You mean Qi Yu? He said a few days ago that he was going out to gather inspiration, but he hasn't been heard from since. I can't get through to him on the phone either."

"If you can't even contact him, I can forget about it."

"Don't worry, he'll be fine. I'm used to him being like this all the time."

Assistant Tang is very generous.

Xia Jiumeng sighed and said, "Okay, it seems like I can't get anything out of him."

With that little ball by Qi Yu's side, there shouldn't be any danger to his life.

Qin Che called just after I hung up the phone with Assistant Tang.

As soon as the call was connected, Qin Che asked with concern, "Are you back?"

After parking and locking the car, Xia Jiumeng replied, "Well, I just returned to Linkong from the base. Your villa was empty when I went there."

"I took them to do something, and I didn't expect you to come back today."

If he had known, he would have waited for her.

"It's okay. Oh, by the way, I heard you put a bounty on Li Shen and Shen Xinghui?"

"kindness."

"Well, could you please undo that?"

"No."

Xia Jiumeng: It’s such a straightforward rejection.

"Well, forget about Shen Xinghui, but could you please stop offering a bounty on Li Shen? After all, they are now considered my accomplices..."

"I'm your only accomplice."

She was at a loss. Qin Che's tone clearly showed that he knew something and was very unhappy.

Xia Jiumeng: "That Qin Che, you also know that those guys are not easy to deal with. There is strength in numbers..."

She could only flatter him dryly.

When he told Qin Che that he had recovered his memory, he also talked about his experiences in this world and his thoughts on dealing with his enemies.

Qin Che wanted to help, but Xia Jiumeng knew that he didn't have enough people on his own.

That group is involved in too many things. If a confrontation really happens one day, at least 109% of n will not intervene, let alone the outside world.

Qin Che naturally has his own power, but she doesn't think his people are willing to pay the price for her, even their lives.

This is also why she wants to form her own power.

This world is not as peaceful and harmonious as it seems. After all, it is a world in troubled times, and strength is everything.

With Ever's crazy behavior, the world will be in chaos sooner or later, and she has to be prepared before that.

Due to the uncontrollable nature of living things, humans cannot always have the upper hand, and those who are on the verge of death will sooner or later shoot themselves in the foot.

However, by then... who knows what kind of desperate scene it will be, and how many people will have to die before humans can understand the "lesson".

Xia Jiumeng put her hands on the handlebars of the motorcycle and rubbed them.

At this moment, in a private meeting room somewhere, Qin Che was looking at a nervous and frustrated little man leaning against the car on his phone, and his jealousy and anger instantly disappeared a lot.

Although I had guessed that such an outstanding girl would definitely be surrounded by some men.

But that didn't stop him from being unhappy with the existence of other people, not to mention that they could actually come to the training ground to study!

What a little wild cat who flirts with other girls all the time without even realizing it.

The two men even danced in front of him, and the reward was offered only for Xiao Lihua's sake.

otherwise.....

A dark light flashed in Qin Che's eyes.

She could only be his.

Unable to bear the embarrassment of Little Lihua, Qin Che relaxed a little and said, "Let's talk about it when we meet."

"Okay, I know Qin Che is the best~"

"Then I'll wait for you to come back~"

Xia Jiumeng laughed immediately when she heard this. Qin Che was finally giving in.

"rhetoric."

"That's only for you."

"I hope so." Qin Che's mouth curled up slightly. "Okay, I have a meeting, so I'll be busy now. You should go back and rest early."

"Got it, Boss Qin." Xia Jiumeng said mischievously before hanging up the phone.

Ok, one thing is solved.

I grabbed some midnight snacks and headed back to my apartment, raising an eyebrow slightly at the extra signs appearing on several houses near my own.

It seems there are quite a few neighbors.

Tsk, is it such a strict defense?

As soon as I entered the door, a white furry creature flew over and made a soft "meow" sound.

【Owner!】

Xia Jiumeng reached out to take it and held it in her arms and rubbed it.

"Long time no see, Xiaoqi."

[Humph, I thought the master had forgotten me.]

"Haha, no way, isn't it that we can't contact them over there?"

Xiao Qi hummed a few times and believed it. It really couldn't keep up, but there was nothing it could do.

He jumped out of Xia Jiumeng's arms and took out a watch from the bedroom with a click.

[Master, your watch has a lot of information, please take a look.]

After taking it, Xia Jiumeng said, "Isn't this thing in..." the experimental base?

Xiao Qi's ears twitched. "There's a positioning system in there. I'll bring you to the apartment after I ask for leave."

Xia Jiumeng didn't ask any more questions, but lowered her head to open her watch and look at the message.

I received messages of concern from Jiang Nan and several assignments from the association, but I automatically rejected them because I hadn't answered them for a long time.

There is also some information shared by Tao Tao.

And... a newest mission.

Hunter Association--Tianxing Branch

An abnormal energy explosion occurred at Villa No. 6 in Liuyun District, Tianxing City. A young brother and sister were at home when the incident occurred. One was seriously injured and hospitalized, and the other was missing.

The parents are currently missing.

There were traces of abnormal energy at the explosion site. The Tianxing branch highly suspected the presence of an ether core at the scene and requested the headquarters to assist in the investigation.

Acceptable, do you accept? 】

Xia Jiumeng looked at the picture of the task and concentrated slightly. Unexpected explosion?

The explosion in this picture looks familiar.

It looks a bit like...the one she has in the Rinku Flower Garden area.

The more I look at her, the more she looks like him. I can't say they are exactly the same, but they are at least 8% similar.

Ethereum Core?

Could it be that the ether core also appeared there?

Is the association also interested in Ethereum Core?

She swiped the task details, which were shared with her by Jiang Nan. Did she think she was still immersed in the emotion of being smashed at home?

Come to think of it, she had also experienced this plot before traveling through time, and she even liked the two characters of her brother and grandmother very much.

I even thought of some ahem, some things that were beyond the scope.

After all, the way my brother looks at me is not right~

But in the plot, the grandma and the brother, two pairs of relatives, were already offline just like that before they had even spent much time together?!

How is this possible? !

It was so frustrating to be blown to death!

I can’t tolerate it, I absolutely can’t tolerate it!

She was so angry that she cursed the ever group eight hundred times every day for a while.

It's bad enough that he experimented on her, but after so many years, he also destroyed her family. It's so infuriating.

Thinking of this, Xia Jiumeng frowned slightly. This must be their work. She happened to be going to Tianxing too, so she took it and took a look. No matter what bad things they were going to do, it would be okay to disgust them.

Accept the task without hesitation.

【Received successfully.】

But just as she accepted the task, Jiang Nan called her.

After the call was connected, she saw Jiang Nan looking at her with some embarrassment.

"Xia Jiumeng, did you just accept the mission?"

"Yes."

"In addition to being somewhat similar to your family's situation, this mission is actually related to a piece of news."

"what news?"

"It's related to the Dimension Core."

"Dimensional Core?"

Xia Jiumeng was a little confused. At this time, a message about receiving a file popped up on the communicator. She clicked it and saw a stack of information. After a quick browse, she knew what the Dimension Core was.

It turned out that during her absence, the association had set up a special Ether Command Group to handle all information about the Ether Core specifically, accurately and quickly. She was also in it, but because she had taken leave during this period and did not participate in any tasks, she did not know about the new Ether Core discovered by the association, that is, the Dimensional Core.

And this task was sent to a group of people, so she could also receive it.

Jiang Nan originally thought that Xia Jiumeng would not answer the call during her leave, but she actually answered it.

Just now, the action team from Tianxing suddenly sent a message saying that the long-distance fleet in charge of Tianxing City suddenly intercepted this mission.

Even they didn't react.

As soon as Jiang Nan received the news, he hurriedly called Xia Jiumeng.

"Yes, and the details of this explosion are almost identical to yours."

Xia Jiumeng: "Then I have to go and see it."

Jiang Nan hesitated for a moment, "But, this mission was intercepted."

Xia Jiumeng was stunned for a moment, and clicked on the task she had accepted again, and found that the green interface that should have been received had turned into an interface with a red border that had been intercepted.

"Who intercepted it?" Who is so awesome that he even blocked the association's mission?

evol government?

Didn't she remember that they were very low-key and lived in peace with the world?

Jiang Nan: "It's Tianxing's Far Space Fleet. They suddenly stopped the Hunter Association from participating on the grounds that it involved fleet secrets."

Xia Jiumeng frowned. "Why?"

Isn't the Association a massive force? Why would they be afraid of a fleet?

Jiang Nan sighed helplessly, "Tianxing is an artificial floating island with enormous energy consumption. It's inhabited by powerful figures and government agencies. The fleet controls the energy lifeline that powers the island, so their say is significant. Even the Association has to avoid their influence."

Those people value their lives, and the fleet controls huge amounts of energy, so they naturally have a lot of say in this world dominated by core energy.

Xia Jiumeng “…” 6.

"And I suggest you don't get involved. This matter is not as simple as it seems. I'm afraid it's complicated."

Jiang Nan persuaded.

Xia Jiumeng calmed down. Those guys cared so much about the explosion that they didn't even let the association intervene. It was even related to the ether core.

Who knows if they are planning something new?

And it is said that ever’s headquarters is also in Tianxing?

She had reason to suspect that it was a self-directed and self-acted performance, and she had to go and see it.

It's a good time to go and have tea with Mr. Da.

Get more in one fell swoop.

After making up her mind, Xia Jiumeng looked at Jiang Nan and said, "I want to go."

Jiang Nan was helpless. As expected, she knew she couldn't persuade Xia Jiumeng. "If you go, you won't just be facing stray bodies, but other things too... Have you thought about it?"

Xia Jiumeng knew she was referring to the fleet and nodded, "I know. I will try to keep a low profile and avoid conflict with the fleet."

"Okay, I'll give you a long vacation. The association probably can't help you much, so be safe."

"Okay, thank you, Captain Nan."

After the call ended, Xia Jiumeng sat on the sofa in a daze for a while.

To be honest, Xia Yizhuo and Zhang Su were actually her regrets. When she was reading the story before traveling through time, she could feel their true love and affection for "herself". That kind of family affection was exactly what she longed for, so she was so angry when she saw the explosion.

If this game developer wasn't from her era, she would really knock on the door and ask the guy who wrote the plot to be the Zerg's shit bag.

But after calming down, she realized that it was just the plot of the game.

If she had known that she could travel through time, she really hoped to arrive earlier, at least before the explosion.

She wanted to save them.

Touching the hot emotions welling up in her chest, she lowered her eyes and said, "I will make those people pay the price."

After calming down, Xia Jiumeng took out her cell phone and sent messages to Li Shen and Shen Xing, then contacted Mr. Da.

The mission was to leave for Tianxing in a week, so she made an appointment with Mr. Da to meet in five days.

She set out early to finalize the cooperation with Mr. Da first.

However, the elder said that they should continue to meet for tea in the future. The younger one had something going on at home, so his old bones could only hold on for a while longer.

Xia Jiumeng remained silent.

She doesn't care who does business with her, as long as they can pay her.

So, "Next chapter, I'm going to Tianxing~~ I'm going to see my brother~"
