Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Detention

Ban Xiaobo and the others couldn’t help but cover their ears; standing to the side, they indicated that the noise was simply too loud.

Looking in the direction of the gun barrel’s aim, they could see that the administration center’s courtyard wall across the street had been completely blasted into rubble…

“Oh my goodness…”

Gao Lei was stunned.

Is this a car?

Or is it a tank?

Its attack power is off the charts, isn’t it?!

The issue Moli was worried about soon became a reality; after the explosion, a group of uniformed personnel quickly surrounded the dealership inside and out.

At that moment, Lian Ze also climbed down from the roof of the car; ignoring the neat lines of guard squad members, he walked up to Rong Yuan and said, “I just had an idea, I can modify your mechanical arm into a powerful weapon like this one. Let me study it, will you?”

“…”

Ultimately, because Lian Ze and Moli were outsiders who had intentionally disrupted the base’s security, the security team took them away.

Fortunately, since Lian Ze had aimed at a wall and not at the passing crowd, Moli felt that otherwise, they would likely be in dire straits.

“Think about it again, let me study you,”

As Lian Ze was being taken away, he still didn’t give up and turned his head to shout in Rong Yuan’s direction.

“…”

In the security team’s detention room, besides making Moli feel unfamiliar and somewhat uneasy, it was actually quite comfortable; it was much warmer than outside, and after Lian Ze had eaten the dinner provided by the security team, he immediately fell asleep on a bed to the side.

Moli sighed, walked over to cover him with a folded blanket lying nearby, and said while looking at him, “Ze, don’t worry, I will take good care of you.”

After Lian Ze and Moli were taken away, Ban Xiaobo and the others were also questioned by Ye Rongxin and his team for an afternoon.

“Is it this car?”

Ye Rongxin asked suspiciously.

If not for the fact that Ban Xiaobo and his group had been running the dealership inside the base, Ye Rongxin wouldn’t have believed those two had managed to blow up the administration center’s nearby courtyard wall just by driving a car.

It was only after he saw the car and went inside that he fully believed the words of Ban Xiaobo and his group.

“Captain Ye, we are telling the truth. One of those two seems to be a research fanatic; it looks like the car was modified by him,”

Xu Chao said from the side.

“I will take this car away for investigation,”

After hearing this, Ye Rongxin nodded, left a word, and then departed.

“That car…”

Ban Xiaobo and his group felt gloomy—they hadn’t even had a chance to try the car themselves…

“I wonder if those two will be able to get out smoothly,”

Gao Lei said worriedly, noting that the two of them didn’t seem to have a single Crystal Core on them.

“…”

Liang Jiuhui quickly learned of Su Jin’s return as well.

At the time Su Jin and her group had left the base, he had only found out afterward. Initially, he had prepared a mission for the Heart Talk Team to intercept, but shortly after the Heart Talk Team departed, the gang involved in robbing Crystal Cores and committing murder mysteriously disappeared, which was a relief for him.

It was likely that the gang had encountered another formidable team that dealt with them.

So, that matter ended up unresolved. Now that the Heart Talk Team had returned, he always looked for an excuse to chat with them, but he found no reason or opportunity.

In the daily summary meeting, Ye Rongxin reported the affairs related to the two outsiders who had disrupted the base’s security captured the day before.

“Are they from the E City base?” Liang Jiuhui asked, frowning.

“Yes, they didn’t hide that fact, but other than that, they only said they were here to look for relatives,”

Ye Rongxin answered.

“Coming from the E City base, then we have to be careful,”

Li Haochu interjected, his dislike for the people from E City base evident.

“One of them seems to be a genius in research. The vehicle he modified, equipped with attack capabilities, is indeed impressive. It’s said that the two of them, who completely lack combat skills, drove in that vehicle from E City to S City,”

Ye Rongxin’s words successfully captured Liang Jiuhui’s attention.

A genius in research?

A vehicle and weapons with attack capabilities?

But just thinking about the fact that these two came from E City made Liang Jiuhui uncertain. Even though he was eager to recruit people, what if he ended up hiring a spy?

“Let them out first, get someone to watch them, and see what they do in the base,”

Liang Jiuhui finally decided.

“Okay,”

Ye Rongxin nodded. He didn’t see those two as a threat, and besides, he heard from a few people at the vehicle store that they didn’t possess a single Crystal Core.

Since that was the case, wouldn’t it be best to let them out and see how they fare?

In the Security team, Moli watched the Security team members opening the detention center’s door and asked, “Are you going to question them again?”

“You guys can leave now, congratulations on being released without charges,”

Ye Rongxin said with a smile to the two people.

Moli indeed looked thrilled—they were released!

But when the two walked out of the Security team’s main gate, Moli couldn’t help being worried; they had no Crystal Cores, no place to stay. Where could they possibly go now…

…

Inside the Wood Spirit Space, another batch of food and medicinal herbs had matured.

Ever since they returned two days ago, the family had been busy collecting, processing, and storing food in the Space, while the task of drying medicinal herbs was left to the men, as Lin Cheng and others were careful of the women getting burned by the dryers.

The supplies in the warehouse had been reduced by about one-fifth in cities A and D.

With this batch of matured crops, they had filled some of the gaps. The family calculated that if the upcoming blizzard really continued for more than a month, the food they consumed would quickly be replenished by the Space’s yield, and they might even have more than before.

“Our goal is to make Zhang Xiaohong famous all over Huaxia!”

Lin Xiuyuan shouted, raising a bag of grain.

Squeak squeak!

Local Tyrant Gold scurried out from one side. It was only after entering the Space that it discovered two new little friends had joined—oh no, one big friend too, who apparently couldn’t come over from the other side of the stream.

The two young lions, now with short fur, chased Local Tyrant Gold around the stone table like two little yellow cats, while Li Xiuying laughed heartily at their adorable antics.

Occasionally, Local Tyrant Gold took the two young lions to see the big friend on the other side of the stream.

The big friend always looked at them fondly; the young lions seemed eager to join the big friend on the other side of the stream, but since they could not cross it, the three of them ended up playing along its banks.

“Xiao Jin, shouldn’t we also think of names for those two lions?”

Huang Yunxiang asked.

“…”

Su Jin paused while she was packing grains.
