Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

It was all a twist of fate.

Perlman had fled from Vision Industries at the beginning of this incident, so he was not questioned by the police and had a tracking chip implanted.

Before being captured by Su Chen and his group, he was protected by Lucius, who was also a pawn, and was relatively safe.

Meanwhile, in Zhu Yuan and Qing Yi's car, on their way to New Ellie City, the escape king Perlman sensed the danger and chose to confront Su Chen and the others.

On the road from the outer ring to the city, a convoy stopped its journey, and a crowd gathered around Zhu Yuan and Qingyi's vehicle.

More than a dozen people stared intently at Perlman, now in the midst of a three-way trial.

"That's how it is. I'm just a puppet in the name of Vision Industry. I can't even eat in the leaders' private kitchen. I'm just a pathetic creature who's forced to eat in the staff canteen!"

“I was like a living signature machine. I signed whatever documents they sent me, without any initiative whatsoever.”

Perlman broke down in tears, recounting the unfair treatment he had received.

He had a bellyful of grievances that he had no one to confide in, and he could only pour them out at this moment.

He's like the legal representative of some companies; if nothing goes wrong, he's a distant relative of the person in charge and gets a few benefits, but if something does go wrong, he's the only one who suffers.

Taking money for washing dishes while risking execution!

"Hey, stop crying. You're no better than me. Get to the point."

Nicole looked at the short, elderly man in front of her, who was less than a meter tall, and said impatiently, "If you keep complaining here, don't blame me for being impolite. Tell me quickly, who is the mastermind behind this, and who is the undercover agent for the Public Security Bureau!"

Perlman then wiped away his tears and quickly revealed the truth: "The real person in charge at Vision Industries is my secretary, Sarah, and the undercover agent in the Sheriff's Department is the current Deputy Chief Sheriff of Janus District, Blinger!"

"The plan to blow up Canvas Lane was devised by those two. I just signed the document and supervised its implementation!"

He spoke out loudly, without hiding anything.

"Impossible! How could Commander Bollinger be the mastermind behind Vision Industries!"

Zhu Yuan stared at Perlman in utter shock, unable to believe what she was hearing.

How could the person who saved her life when she was a child, and her idol all her life, be the black hand who disregards human life?

"what?"

Nicole, Billy, and the others were startled and taken aback.

They had been commended by Bollinger and had even witnessed him giving a scathing speech in front of a group of television reporters about his achievement in dismantling the Vision Industries' hideout.

Although he stuttered a little, he didn't seem like an undercover agent at all.

Su Chen frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

Having been exposed to various online information before his transmigration, he found it strange no matter what kind of disguise those criminals wore.

However, he hadn't paid much attention to Bollinger before, since Zhu Yuan and Qingyi, both sheriffs, were more attractive than Bollinger.

At this point, he couldn't immediately discern whether what Perlman said was true or false.

Zhu Yuan was losing control of her emotions. She looked at Perlman sternly and said seriously, "Perlman, you will be held accountable for what you said. If you slander a high-ranking official in the Sheriff's Department, you will face even more serious charges."

"Miss Sheriff, I assure you that everything I've said is the truth, there's not a single lie!"

Perlman raised a finger and said emphatically, "Blinger often holds secret meetings with Sarah and pushes me aside. It is because of Blinger's protection that Vision Industries has been able to develop smoothly all the way!"

“As a fugitive in New Elidu, your words may not be credible.”

Zhu Yuan said, sounding somewhat distressed.

"Big sister, if I hadn't overheard you talking to Bollinger on the phone and been afraid he would kill me, I wouldn't have jumped out and exposed myself."

Perlman was completely panicked and said urgently, "I secretly made copies of every contract that Bollinger and Sarah agreed to. They're hidden in those engineering documents in Dead End Hollow. You can verify that!"

"..."

Upon hearing Perlman's words, Zhu Yuan fell silent.

Although he was a criminal, Perlman's relentless pursuit of Bollinger aroused her suspicions.

She trusts and idolizes Bollinger, but that doesn't mean she's a mindless doll.

"Relax, Zhu Yuan. We can't just rely on his one-sided story to find out the truth. We need to investigate and get the results."

Su Chen patted Zhu Yuan on the back to comfort her.

"That's right. So far, it seems that this guy is speaking with great certainty, but it's just his testimony."

The woman in green also offered words of comfort.

Although she felt the possibility was quite high, Zhu Yuan still needed to stay calm at this time.

"Thank you, I will handle this calmly."

Zhu Yuan's mood had changed somewhat, and she was clearly preoccupied with something.

Su Chen stood to the side and casually said, "Perlman just said that the evidence is hidden in the dead-end, empty engineering documents. Those engineering documents should be in the hands of Baiqi Heavy Industry now, and they are acquaintances who can cooperate with the investigation."

"That's great! Go investigate! Once you see the evidence, you'll know what Bollinger really is!"

Perlman was thrilled; he saw hope.

"Then let's find evidence and let the facts speak for themselves."

Zhu Yuan rallied herself and said firmly.

“Finding evidence is no problem.” Nicole stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, “However, as things stand, regardless of whether what Perlman said is true or false, he is not suitable to be sent to the police station for the time being.”

"He should be hidden in a safe and secluded place, preferably not a place that appears to be flawless on the surface."

Ambi offered her advice with a serious expression.

Having watched countless films, she knew that even the most seemingly foolproof hiding places are often exposed.

"Take him with us and search for evidence." Su Chen said confidently, hands in his pockets, "Nowhere is safer than around us."

"Makes sense."

Anbi glanced at Su Chen and nodded seriously.

“Then it’s settled. We’ll take Perlman to White Spirit Heavy Industry to verify the evidence.” Su Chen thought for a moment and said, “But if Bollinger really is an undercover agent, he’ll definitely find something’s wrong. We need someone to keep an eye on him.”

Zhu Yuan raised her head and said seriously, "I will ask Advisor Jane to keep an eye on Commander Bollinger for the time being."

"That's no problem."

Su Chen nodded, but secretly planned to have the stellar-level celestial computer Artemis take over the New Elidu Network to assist in the investigation.

"Sigh, launching an investigation into a deputy chief of staff so hastily, if Chief of Staff Bollinger is innocent, we'll be in for a lengthy investigation."

The woman in green sighed and tried to lighten the mood.

“If Commander Bollinger has no problem, Senior Qingyi, I’ll write yours.”

Zhu Yuan clenched her fist and said firmly.

Qingyi was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Then there's no need. It would be more sincere to write it yourself back then."
