Chapter 122 Hidden

342, June 13th, 15:00.

Having corrected the memories of 30 individuals consecutively, even with Tang Li's strong mental power, she couldn't help but feel dizzy.

The 30 women whose memories had been tampered with were awakened from their dormancy after the implanted false memories were overwritten. They no longer harbored hostility towards the "United Squad" as they had before.

They all understood that their previous actions were due to their memories being altered.

Some of them had even lost the memory of being separated from their families and couldn't recall where their families had gone.

The others knew their families' fates after the apocalypse. Even the memories of their families being killed by other criminal gangs before they were sold to the "Heavenly King Gang" were preserved.

It was evident that the families of these individuals had been harmed by the Heavenly King Gang.

However, being deceived by false memories previously, they hadn't realized this. Instead, they subconsciously believed the "United Squad" had killed their families, even without any supporting memories.

This was why some of them had been uncooperative and harbored hostility towards the "United Squad."

Now, having realized the truth, they were in great pain.

"Miss Tang, perhaps you should rest for a while?"

Seeing Tang Li's fatigue, Song Pinxuan couldn't help but suggest with concern.

Tang Li waved her hand, refusing the offer.

She said to Song Pinxuan, "Director Song, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Tang Li led Song Pinxuan to a corner and asked him, "Do you really think those R-country people were all captured?"

Song Pinxuan shook his head and said, "Not only were those R-country people not all captured, but their hidden forces are also considerable!"

Hearing Song Pinxuan's words, Tang Li raised an eyebrow.

Knowing he had more information, she gestured for him to continue.

"In fact, everyone involved in the military's investigation of this case knows that the organization in the black market was just a scapegoat. The real mastermind has yet to reveal themselves."

"The Jiangcheng Governor's Mansion also wants to uncover the true behind-the-scenes power. Although the black market organization was indeed attempting a power grab, the mastermind was clearly aware of it as well."

"Even more so, this black market organization has long been riddled with holes due to infiltration by that behind-the-scenes power. The Governor's Mansion suspects that the number of people infiltrated into the official high ranks by that power is greater than those already exposed from the black market organization."

Upon hearing Song Pinxuan's statement, Tang Li asked, "Then why was the case closed so quickly?"

Song Pinxuan paused for a moment before replying, "That's where the terror lies..."

"The request to close the case quickly came from Dragon City!"

Tang Li was not surprised by this answer.

After all, with the longevity drug, those closer to death desired it more.

And in Z-country, the older and more senior one was, the higher their position and power.

It was not unusual for these elderly individuals, instead of becoming wiser with age, to abandon their principles out of fear of death and desire for the longevity drug.

And most of these people were currently in Dragon City.

"So, what do you plan to do now?" Tang Li asked.

"Although the Jiangchen Governor's Mansion has decided to give up and announced the closure of the case, the military still intends to investigate secretly," Song Pinxuan replied.

Tang Li nodded, not asking further questions.

Through their interactions over the past one or two months, Tang Li knew that Song Pinxuan's family background was not simple. It was just that his elders were no longer around, and he was focused on scientific research, which was why it hadn't been apparent.

However, looking at his cousin Xue Keyue, one could see the significant influence he could wield.

Xue Keyue's grandfather was a veteran in the military, which allowed Song Pinxuan's independent research laboratory to be affiliated with the Military Research Institute.

He had many such relatives, although not all of them were in Jiangcheng.

But even just one Xue Keyue could make a significant difference.

"Director Song, you also know that the forces behind the R-country people are still operating in the shadows. We don't understand them, yet they have deeply infiltrated us."

"The situation is already disadvantageous to us. And altering memories using brain-computer interfaces is likely one of their trump cards."

"If they were to learn that we have the ability to correct memories using their invasive brain-computer interfaces, their future actions would inevitably be guarded. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět"

Tang Li said, "I think it would be best to hide these women whose memories have been corrected and claim outwardly that the memory correction was a failure."

"Keeping my ability to use mental power to correct memories via invasive brain-computer interfaces a secret from the R-country people, and using it at a critical moment, might achieve a miraculous effect. What do you think?"
