Not long after, Zhang Yi and Baili Changqing, who received the news, arrived at the combat center.

The two met in the lobby on the first floor.

Baili Changqing gave Zhang Yi a bitter smile.

Zhang Yi understood immediately.

At the beginning, the two of them worked together to deceive the Jiangnan region and prevent the region's top leaders from knowing Zhang Yi's strength.

However, in this mission to encircle and suppress Eclipse Moon, the strength displayed by Zhang Yi was obviously far higher than the region's expectations.

From this perspective, the region will definitely hold Baili Changqing accountable.

However, during this period of time, the two of them were unable to communicate with each other, and even if they wanted to speak with one voice, they couldn't do it.

Now that Zhu Zheng called them over, he must have asked about this matter.

Zhang Yi was fine, as he was not from Blizzard City. Even if Zhu Zheng blamed him, he could only scold him verbally but could not impose any substantial punishment.

After all, it's not a mistake to conceal one's strength.

But Baili Changqing is the captain of the investigation team, so it is hard to say what he does.

The crime can be serious or minor, depending on Zhu Zheng's mood.

Lan Xincheng personally came downstairs to greet the two.

He has a handsome face, but looks a little feminine, probably because he is a civil servant.

But Zhang Yi doesn't like this guy very much.

Because Lan Xincheng is the kind of person who you can tell is very smart at first glance.

It is easy to suffer losses when dealing with such people.

However, Zhang Yi was not afraid of this. Instead, he thought Lan Xincheng's pretentious cleverness was a little funny.

A truly smart person is often a person with inner beauty, rather than showing off his or her talents.

"You two, please come upstairs! Zhu Shuai has been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhang Yi looked calm, smiled, nodded, and followed Lan Xincheng.

Baili Changqing had a complicated expression on his face, but at this point he had no choice but to go ahead with it.

After a while, the two arrived at Zhu Zheng's office.

Lan Xincheng did not enter the room, but closed the door from the outside.

There were only Zhu Zheng and his personal bodyguard Sun Luxuan inside.

Zhu Zheng was sitting at the mahogany table, his hands folded and supporting his chin. The light and shadow in the afternoon were a little dim, covering half of his face and Sun Luxuan in the shadow.

The atmosphere in the office is a bit weird.

Zhang Yi thought to himself: He probably has nothing else to ask me for, but he wants me to continue working hard to deal with Eclipse Moon.

Although I have no objection to dealing with the Neon Ronin, but if I were to risk my life, haha, I would not be happy about it.

It depends on what he says.

Baili Changqing stood next to Zhang Yi with a stern face and some sweat on his forehead.

Zhu Zheng raised his head and looked at them, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a deep smile: "Now that you are here, please sit down!"

"Yes!"

Baili Changqing spoke loudly, and it could be seen that he was a little nervous.

Zhang Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, Commander."

The two sat down at the mahogany table.

Zhu Zheng's gaze fell directly on Zhang Yi.

"Zhang Yi, you made a great contribution in this campaign to encircle and suppress Eclipse Moon. This really surprised me! I never thought that there would be such a powerful alien in the outer city."

He smiled and reached out to nod at Zhang Yi: "You, kid, are really good at hiding things!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Baili Changqing beside him.

"Even our district's investigation team didn't find it."

Baili Changqing felt a lump in his throat. He wanted to explain something, but he didn't know how to start.

Zhang Yi smiled and spoke, helping him relieve the pressure.

"Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows. I keep some means of preserving my life so that I can survive in the apocalypse. I hope Zhu Shuai can understand."

Zhu Zheng nodded. "That's right. You are indeed cautious and capable of hiding. This is an excellent quality. On the battlefield, soldiers like you are most likely to survive."

After hearing this, Baili Changqing couldn't help but complain in his heart: Didn't you always say that Zhang Yi was only good at defense, not good at it, his playing style was too steady, and he only cared about his own interests, so he was not a qualified soldier?

Good man, it turns out you change your mind faster than turning the pages of a book.
