Chapter 118 What are we fighting for?
"You...you...why are you back?"
In the small pavilion on the federal street that was specially designed for cleaners to rest, Wen Jiaojiao looked at Lan Yin with a ghostly expression.
Then, as if suddenly enlightened, he said, "No wonder all that information about Wen Mo was circulating online. Turns out it was you who did it."
Lan Yin found a comfortable position to sit down and avoided answering the question: "You can't stand working for Wen Qingya, and the new boss Wen Mo is not that good either. His strength is not even comparable to Wen Qingya's little finger."
Wen Jiaojiao curled her lips: "I don't work for Wen Mo, I work for Wen Mo..."
Lan Yin: "Wen Mo's what?"
Wen Jiaojiao turned around and wanted to leave: "Why should I tell you..."
This princess is a little scary, it's better to stay away from her.
Lan Yin's words came back quickly. Her voice was not loud, but it made Wen Jiaojiao tremble all over: "You dare not say, are you working for Wen Mo's mother?"
Wen Jiaojiao turned around and looked at Lan Yin in shock: "How did you know?"
Lan Yin didn't say anything. There was no need to guess what this feeling was; it was simply too simple.
Wen Jiaojiao stopped and asked cautiously, "What else do you know?"
Now she no longer has the sense of superiority that she had at the beginning, that she has a spiritual body while the person in front of her does not.
Lan Yin said calmly, "What do you want me to know? For example, Wen Mo's mother's surname, or her identity as a researcher..."
Wen Jiaojiao was horrified: "Stop talking, you will die."
Lan Yin smiled, the wind blowing her hair: "The last person who said I would die was Wen Mo..."
Wen Jiaojiao was silent for a moment, then said, "Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I'll tell everyone about this? Even though you're a princess of the Empire, you're now on Federation territory. It wouldn't be difficult to kill you."
Lan Yin: "Killing me shouldn't be that easy."
Regardless of anything else, if you can't beat her, she will run away.
Wen Jiaojiao had a complicated expression and didn't know what to say for a moment. She always thought that she had a good life, but it wasn't good either.
Those who are lucky have awakened their special spirits at the age of six, while those who are unlucky have had a rough life.
In the past, when she looked at the princess, she was envious of her noble status and felt pity for her delicate body. She always felt that she was superior to the princess.
After joining the Federation, this idea became even stronger. At least she knew what she wanted, instead of being a puppet manipulated by the aristocratic families like the other party.
But now it seems that she has lost again, and everything before was just a joke of her fantasy.
And now, the dream is over.
Lan Yin looked at the stunned Wen Jiaojiao and raised a question that had always puzzled her: "I didn't understand before. You and Wen Qingya teamed up to deceive Wen Mo with a fake crystal stone. Logically, Wen Mo should hate you very much. But now you work under Wen Mo, which shows that the relationship between you and Wen Mo is not bad.
"There are two possibilities. One is that there is a vested interest between you and Wen Mo. The other is that this scheme was originally set up by you and Wen Mo for Wen Qingya, with the purpose of deceiving Wen Qingya in exchange for your freedom. Tell me, which of these two possibilities do you belong to?"
Wen Jiaojiao didn't answer: "I don't know what you are talking about."
Lan Yin didn't force it: "Actually, this is not important, but what is important is, in this situation, do you think you can still cooperate happily with Wen Mo?"
Wen Jiaojiao asked back: "Why not? It's you who made him look bad, not me. Besides, it's not Wen Mo's turn to make decisions about my affairs."
Lan Yin raised her eyes: "What if it was Wen Mo's mother who wanted to kill you?"
Wen Jiaojiao immediately retorted: "Impossible."
Lan Yin smiled: "What makes you so sure? You used the same tone when you wanted to kill me yesterday."
Wen Jiaojiao's expression changed: "This is different."
Lan Yin didn't ask any further questions, but said calmly, "Whether it's true or not, you can tell at a glance. Do you know what's inside the research institute?"
Wen Jiaojiao obviously didn't know, her eyes were confused: "What is it?"
Lan Yin said, "They specialize in extracting human spirits. Their research on your spirit has been successful, so they no longer need you. But you know too many of their secrets. You should be dead."
Wen Jiaojiao's expression relaxed after hearing this. "Nonsense. I've been to the research institute before, and they were just conducting experiments to accelerate the healing of illnesses. If crystals were as easy to extract from the human body as you say, then Wen Qingya and Wen Mo wouldn't be fighting so fiercely over a single crystal."
Lan Yin explained: "That crystal is not an ordinary crystal, it is a space crystal."
Wen Jiaojiao's eyes widened. "You mean my spirit is an ordinary spirit that can be easily extracted?"
Lan Yin: "I didn't say that."
Although this is roughly the meaning, it is undeniable that Wen Jiaojiao's spirit is also very rare, otherwise the Wen family would not have taken her in and raised her since she was a child, and the Federation also extended a hand of friendship to her and let her be an undercover agent. Until now, she seems to be a cannon fodder but is still living well in the Federation.
Although I am only living as a cleaner.
In fact, what she said about spirit extraction was also a lie to Wen Jiaojiao. Lan Yin only knew that there was such research in the research institute after the last incident with Brother Hei Ya, but she did not see the research about Wen Jiaojiao. She just wanted to use Wen Jiaojiao to enter the research institute again to steal some spirit stones and successfully win the first place this time.
Unexpectedly, the other party didn't buy it.
Wen Jiaojiao said directly: "That's what you mean."
Lan Yin rolled her eyes and looked directly at Wen Jiaojiao. "I told you, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. You'll know if it's true if you go to the research institute. Don't forget, the mutating drug you injected into Wen Rongrong was stolen from the research institute. Now, do you still dare to say that all the research at the research institute is good experiments for the benefit of the people and medicine?"
Wen Jiaojiao paused, then subconsciously retorted, "That's different. The mutation was caused by the Cult of God. The Federation's experiments are merely trying to find a way to combat the mutation."
Lan Yin smiled without saying anything, her eyes revealing a sense of helplessness that said, "Just lie to yourself."
Under Lan Yin's gaze, Wen Jiaojiao's voice became smaller and smaller, and she became less confident.
is it really like this?
But the Federation she came into contact with was indeed like this...
At this time, Lan Yin suggested again: "Whether it is true or not, you can find out by going to the research institute. Don't wait until you are about to die to say that I didn't tell you earlier."
Wen Jiaojiao was a little overwhelmed: "But I don't have permission to enter the research institute."
Lan Yin was silent.
No, sister, why weren't you as honest as you are in the Federation when you were an undercover agent in the Empire?
It's like a different person...
