Twisted Dreams-Chapter 290 - 359: Su Manman: Will There Really Be a Blood Moon?

Chapter 290: Chapter 359: Su Manman: Will There Really Be a Blood Moon?

Imperial Capital, Security Administration.

"It’s okay, Old Zheng, you’re doing it for the Security Administration, after all.

Don’t blame yourself too much. No one wanted this to happen."

Elder He consoled Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian sighed:

"I really didn’t expect such a little public forum could cause such a big mess."

Regret was written all over Zheng Qian’s face.

Why didn’t he listen to Cao Yi? Why did he have to provoke the CF Foundation?

Now, words can’t change anything.

Zheng Qian stood up, his head spinning, nearly falling over.

Elder He quickly supported Zheng Qian, speaking sincerely:

"Old Zheng, you are the backbone of our Security Bureau, you must take care of your health!"

Zheng Qian waved his hand:

"My old ailment is acting up, I need to make a trip to the hospital."

Elder He nodded repeatedly:

"You must go, you must go!"

After sending Zheng Qian out of the office, Elder He took out a phone and dialed a number:

"Leader, it’s me.

Yes, yes, it’s all Zheng Qian’s doing.

Cao Yi tried to dissuade him, but to no avail.

I also blame myself, I was there, too, but didn’t stop him in time.

Yes, yes, I will investigate the CF Foundation.

Okay, I will discipline Zheng Qian, thank you for trusting me."

He was just comforting Zheng Qian earlier, now he’s reporting him.

Because of Zheng Qian’s wrongful command, the Security Administration’s network system suffered a heavy blow.

Zheng Qian would receive a major punishment.

Different positions offer different perspectives and thoughts.

Faced with the foundation forum, Zheng Qian thought of making a contribution.

Only with enough achievements could he find opportunities to become the Director.

Elder He thought of eliminating dissidents.

Zheng Qian was the Deputy Director of the Security Administration and had a significant say there.

However, his ideas were completely different from Elder He’s.

For instance, regarding the Demon Race, Zheng Qian often opposed Elder He.

Cao Yi was Elder He’s student and could see that the foundation forum should not be provoked, how could Elder He not see it?

The reason for not stopping was simply to watch Zheng Qian make a mistake.

Before addressing external problems, one must first settle internal affairs.

It ended up benefiting the foundation forum; so much vital information was wasted.

Elder He also underestimated that forum.

Who would have thought that, facing the forum, the Security Administration’s tech department would be so ineffective?

Elder He poured himself some tea and took a long sip.

Having dealt with Zheng Qian, it’s time to think about other matters.

Like the foundation forum, like the Demon Club.

He always felt that all the strange incidents worldwide were somehow connected to the South Sea.

After all, the South Sea was the first place where strange incidents occurred and where the first Extraordinary individual emerged.

Elder He picked up his phone and dialed a number.

The call was quickly answered:

"Director, it’s Wei Ming."

Elder He replied:

"Wei Ming, I’ve seen your recent report, you’ve captured quite a few Extraordinary criminals!

If this continues, I’ll be able to transfer you back to the Imperial Capital."

Wei Ming had been busy during this period, capturing many criminals and sending them to Mang Mountain Special Prison.

Oh, and the Red Skirt who was on the run was also caught by Wei Ming.

Wei Ming excitedly said:

"All for the Security Administration!"

Elder He added somberly:

"But don’t forget the task I assigned you."

Though Wei Ming seemed demoted to the South Sea, he was actually on a special mission from Elder He.

That was to investigate the deepest secrets hidden in the South Sea.

Wei Ming pondered for a moment:

"I understand, Leader."

Wei Ming hadn’t forgotten Elder He’s task.

It just seemed strange, after arriving in the South Sea, these Extraordinary criminals all appeared around the South Sea.

Moreover, the Extraordinary criminals were like snakes with their fangs removed, very easy to deal with.

For example, the Red Skirt, when found, was already insane and couldn’t resist at all.

It seemed as if... someone was deliberately sending him experience so he could quickly amass merit and return to the Imperial Capital sooner.

Sometimes Wei Ming wondered if someone had discovered his secret mission and didn’t want him to have time to investigate the South Sea’s secrets.

......

South Sea, Jinmu Cafe.

Su Manman rubbed her eyes:

"Alright, the Security Bureau’s data is all in the computer.

Do you want it? If you want it, I’ll give you the hard drive."

Li Yang shook his head:

"Keep it with you."

Su Manman nodded and massaged her waist:

"Fine, I’ll find a way to upload the data onto the forum’s backend.

You can access the forum backend anytime you want.

With the snake firewall, there won’t be any problems."

She was quite tired after sitting for so long.

Su Manman glanced at Li Yang, asking:

"Is there anything else?"

She was subtly giving him the cue to leave.

Su Manman was supposed to be at an internet cafe, not Jinmu Cafe at this time. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Li Yang knew Su Manman was hinting at him to leave but wasn’t annoyed, and said:

"Shall I drop you at the internet cafe?"

Su Manman shook her head:

"No need to trouble you, sir."

Li Yang nodded, put on his round hat, and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Su Manman suddenly called out.

Li Yang turned back, smiling:

"Please go ahead."

Su Manman hesitated for a while, gathered her thoughts, and said:

"Are you really sure the Blood Moon will appear on the ninth of next month?

That’s an abnormal event even the Security Administration can’t predict.

If the Blood Moon doesn’t appear next month, the foundation forum will be doomed.

If you’re not entirely sure, I can help you prepare Plan B in advance to mitigate the impact of ’failing to predict the Blood Moon.’"

Li Yang looked at Su Manman with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

Su Manman turned her face away, avoiding Li Yang’s gaze, and said:

"I don’t mean anything else, don’t overthink.

It’s just that our cooperation now is based on the forum’s existence.

I need you to explain your thoughts clearly so I can be prepared."

She was afraid Li Yang would misunderstand her as being concerned about him.

She knew she was a great beauty; it was a fact, not vanity.

To a beauty, in any situation, her first tag would surely be ’beauty,’ not ’hacker’ or anything else.

Su Manman was afraid that her ’concern’ would lead Li Yang to have strange ideas, causing unexpected trouble.

Li Yang didn’t answer Su Manman’s question but said:

"If you want to gain Extraordinary Power, I can help you.

You don’t need to go to a place illuminated by the Blood Moon.

After the Blood Moon appears in a city, only a few can gain the power it brings."

Su Manman was dumbfounded for a moment:

"Is it Spirit Plant?"

This forum was created by Su Manman herself, she learned much Extraordinary knowledge, and naturally knew what ’Spirit Plant’ was.

Without bathing in the Blood Moon, one could still gain Extraordinary Power; the only option left was consuming ’Spirit Plant.’

She didn’t know that ’Spirit Plant’ was precisely created by Li Yang, and it was even named by him.

Li Yang shook his head:

"I can give you something else, better than the Spirit Plant."

Su Manman carefully recalled the forum’s content.

Better than the Spirit Plant...

The forum definitely didn’t have knowledge of this aspect.

Su Manman suspiciously asked:

"What is that thing?

If it truly exists, it should have side effects, right?"

Li Yang smirked:

"The side effect is losing freedom.

Do you need it?"

Li Yang was quite keen on Su Manman consuming the Desire Potion.

If Su Manman took the Desire Potion, he could better control her.

However, since Li Yang acquired the Desire Magic Jar, he never forced anyone to consume the Desire Potion.

Su Manman showed a disgusted expression:

"No need, thank you."

"That’s really a pity."

Li Yang said no more, tipped his hat, and walked out of Jinmu Cafe.
