I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

Teahouse, elegant room.

The three of them sat down as host and guest, and a tea artist poured tea for them. They picked up the tea and took a sip.

After the tea artist left, Sun Xiaoyan did not speak, but instead set her eyes on Xu Li. She didn't know why the National Security Bureau was looking for her, so she wanted to wait for Xu Li to speak first.

Xu Li lowered his head and sipped his tea gently, as if he was deep in thought. The other young man sat there with his back straight, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was lost in thought.

Sun Xiaoyan withdrew her gaze from the young man with interest, and when she looked at Xu Li, her eyes met Xu Li's who was looking up at her. Both of them were stunned, and then they both smiled slightly.

Xu Li took out an ID from his pocket and placed it on the table. He pushed it gently, and the ID turned a circle and stopped in front of Sun Xiaoyan.

"Boss Sun, this is my ID. This is my colleague Ding Kai. We are both from the National Security Bureau's Kyoto Headquarters!"

Sun Xiaoyan put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the ID card, and opened it. The first thing that caught his eye was a dazzling national emblem, and below it was a close-up photo of Xu Li. Below it was written: National Security Bureau Kyoto Headquarters, Xu Li, Lieutenant Colonel, Inspection Department 1.

Putting away the documents Sun Xiaoyan handed back, Xu Li said, "Mr. Sun is quite busy with work, so I won't beat around the bush. I'd like to ask, as the president of Tianhai Pharmaceutical, why would you stay in Shanghai for so long?"

Having said that, Xu Li leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on Sun Xiaoyan's, and asked word by word, "Could it be that Mr. Sun is planning to open a branch of Tianhai Pharmaceutical in the Magic City?"

As Xu Li asked the question, Ding Kai, who had his eyes slightly closed beside Xu Li, opened his eyes slightly and looked at Sun Xiaoyan.

Sun Xiaoyan smiled slightly, and she probably understood in her heart. She did not rush to answer, but picked up the tea and gently nodded to Xu Li and the other man. Then she put down the tea and looked at Xu Li with a light tone.

"I remember that citizens have the right to freedom, right? I like the Magic City and want to stay here for a few more days. This, Lieutenant Colonel Xu, isn't it illegal?"

"Uh!"

Xu Li and Ding Kai exchanged a glance, and Xu Li smiled faintly: "Of course it's not illegal, but from what I understand, it seems that you're in Shanghai for more than just a vacation!"

As he spoke, Xu Li took a black briefcase from Ding Kai, took out a stack of documents from the bag, and placed it in front of Sun Xiaoyan.

Sun Xiaoyan frowned slightly, picked up the information and took a look, his brows furrowed even more.

Xu Li took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Sun Xiaoyan, an outstanding Ivy League graduate, is only 25 years old and has a master's degree. After his grandfather passed away in 2023, he became the president of Tianhai Pharmaceutical according to his grandfather's will and holds 64% of Tianhai Pharmaceutical's shares. His sworn brother is Sun Xuan, and his father is Sun Yihai..."

Having said that, Xu Li paused for a moment, glanced at Sun Xiaoyan who was reading the documents, and continued, "Sun Yihai has always hoped that you would marry your sworn brother Sun Xuan, and Sun Xuan wants to use the marriage to seize Tianhai Pharmaceutical. Before 2024, your entire situation can be said to be precarious, and you will be surrounded by enemies on all sides!"

"But strangely, since 2024, Mr. Sun, you seem to have great fortune. According to the National Security Bureau's secret investigation, you've won the lottery three times in the past two months. The first time was a slightly smaller amount, but the two subsequent times were each worth over a billion!"

As Xu Li spoke, a gleam in his eyes flashed, as if he was amazed at the truth he was saying. "Of course, if it was just a lottery win of over 3 billion, to be honest, the National Security Department wouldn't take it seriously. But what you did next really caught their attention!"

Hearing the seriousness in Xu Li's words, Sun Xiaoyan withdrew his gaze from the information and smiled slightly: "What's the matter?"

Xu Li looked at Sun Xiaoyan's calm and delicate face, frowned, and said word by word: "About what you and MineARC are doing!"

……

"Oh!"

Sun Xiaoyan felt a little relieved. She had been wondering what would alarm the national security department. After thinking about it, this was the only thing that could happen.

After all, building an underground shelter with an area of ​​more than 10 square meters to accommodate 30 people is not a small project, and it will naturally be filed with the relevant government departments.

Such a large project is not to build an ordinary residential area, but an ultra-large-scale underground project, comparable to an underground town.

You know, the population of many small towns in China is no more than 30,000 to 50,000 people, while this underground shelter can accommodate 100,000 people, and the contractor is a foreign company.

It's no surprise that all these factors combined have attracted the attention of the National Security Bureau!

After the national security department discovered this incident, they suspected that this move involved national security. Upon investigation, they found that the boss behind this incident was Sun Xiaoyan, the president of a Chinese pharmaceutical company.

After investigating Sun Xiaoyan's personal experience, Xu Li, who has many years of experience in national security, immediately found many unreasonable aspects and became interested in Sun Xiaoyan.

Logically speaking, the National Security Bureau should conduct a secret investigation and take action only when they have sufficient evidence. However, Xu Li read Sun Xiaoyan's information several times and after careful consideration, he decided to talk to her face to face.

After all, judging from the information, Sun Xiaoyan did not violate any national laws. Moreover, although building an underground shelter sounds incredible, it is not unheard of in foreign countries.

However, the construction of her underground shelter was quite large and the cost was so high that Xu Li couldn't understand it.

"Lieutenant Colonel Xu, Comrade Ding, please have some tea!"

Faced with Xu Li's question, Sun Xiaoyan didn't rush to explain anything. Instead, he poured another cup of tea for the two of them, took a sip, and then said, "Do you two believe in the end of the world?"

"The end of the world?"

Xu Li and Ding Kai were startled by Sun Xiaoyan's words. Ding Kai was young after all, and he lost his temper. His face darkened as he said, "Boss Sun, we're here on business, and you're talking to us about the end of the world?"

"hehe!"

Sun Xiaoyan smiled faintly and said, "You see, this is the difference between us. This matter may be a big deal for you two, but for me, it's actually very simple. I believe in the end of the world, and I happen to have money. So, I plan to build an underground shelter and do my best to shelter some people when the end of the world comes. That's all!"

"Oh!"

Sun Xiaoyan's words made Xu Li and Ding Kai fall into silence. At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with these words.

But then Xu Li asked again, "We discovered that the materials used in the construction of this underground shelter are all the best earthquake-resistant materials. I've seen the blueprints. This is not a simple underground shelter. It can be said to be an underground town that combines defense, offense, living, entertainment, and material storage."

"If it's really just an underground shelter, is it necessary to build it so completely? I've even heard rumors that MineARC is smuggling state-controlled substances through the underground black market. Are you aware of this, Mr. Sun?"
