Revenge! This was definitely revenge!
You Xin knew this clearly in his heart, yet he remained unwilling to accept it.
He asked, "Why do I have to hand over my phone? I still need to investigate last night's explosion!"
As soon as You Xin finished speaking, a deep and stern voice echoed from outside the door.
"You don't need to investigate. We already know who caused last night's explosion."
You Xin was very familiar with this voice.
Turning his head, he saw that it was indeed Commander Yao from Jiangcheng.
Beside him was Xue Keyue.
"Uncle Yao, what's going on? Didn't you promise my grandfather that you'd let me investigate the explosion?" You Xin asked, frowning.
Commander Yao looked at You Xin with a pained expression and said, "I entrusted such an important case to you out of trust. But what about you?"
"I truly never expected you to collude with the people who killed Old Han, and even attempt to cover up their crimes and frame others for the R-country people! You've disappointed me greatly..."
As he spoke, Commander Yao arrived before You Xin.
In a voice only they could hear, he said, "The R-country people no longer possess the longevity serum; it's all in the hands of the Apocalypse Mall."
Upon hearing this, You Xin felt as if struck by lightning.
If the R-country people didn't have the longevity serum, then why had he come here? And why had he done so much for them for free?
But that wasn't all.
"Miss Tang said that Mr. Li from the Apocalypse Mall asked her to inform everyone that they will only provide these longevity serums to those who did not participate in this rumor-mongering incident. Those who were involved will receive nothing."
You Xin almost spat blood upon hearing this.
After all his hard work, he had ultimately lost the longevity serum?
After Commander Yao whispered a couple of sentences, he resumed his normal voice and said,
"To be honest, the R-country representative, Takahashi, has been transformed into a bio-robot. Everything Takahashi saw and everything you discussed was recorded."
"We saw the entire process of you and Takahashi, Ishikawa, and Governor Dai planning to frame 'Apocalypse Mall' and the 'United Task Force,' and how you carried it out!"
"Dragon City has issued an order to relieve you of all your duties and bring you back to Dragon City for interrogation!"
Hearing Commander Yao's words, You Xin stumbled, almost falling to the ground.
As soon as Commander Yao finished speaking, two people approached You Xin and removed all insignia and name tags that proved his rank and identity.
Then, they took him away.
After this, he would be sent back to Dragon City.
However, with Elder You present, he likely wouldn't be sent to build an underground city.
But from now on, it was highly unlikely he would ever be able to re-enter the armed forces.
After dealing with You Xin, Commander Yao announced that Jiangcheng was to enter a state of military control.
Concurrently, he informed Dragon City to select a new governor and key personnel for the governor's mansion.
Xue Keyue also retrieved her phone from the governor's mansion, along with the phones of ordinary members of the United Task Force and ordinary researchers from Song Pinxuan's institute.
Meanwhile, not only was Song Pinxuan released, but Zhong Heng, Peng Yue, Bai Xunyang, and Lin Xi also walked out of the tents where they had been detained.
However, they soon discovered a new problem.
The R-country people and their seeds were gone, but the rumors they had spread were still circulating in Jiangcheng...
