The Chairman of the Truth Society wanted to have a chat with Bai Fu, and for this reason, had deliberately left a brainwashed mutant in the laboratory. Concealing this event from others was challenging.
As everyone stared, the smile gradually faded from Bai Fu's face.
The Chairman, that old bastard, probably plotted this to trap her after suffering a loss at her hands?
Alright, alright, so that's how you want to play? Next time we meet, I will have to add a bit more force, even if I can't kill you, I will at least tear off both your arms!
In silence, Beixim was the first to speak up, "Interesting, I was just worrying about not being able to find him, and he comes out on his own. I'd like to see what he is going to reveal."
While speaking, he gave Bai Fu a deep look, his eyes full of meaning.
After that, he started directing the Mechanic who was coordinating with the main forces: "This is an opportunity, try to trace his signal. If we can find his current location... the hundred-year history of the Truth Society will end today!"
Beixim suddenly sneered, his demeanor suggesting that if he knew where the Truth Society Chairman was, he could simply teleport there and finish him off in a second.
Putting on such an act?
Bai Fu's eyes twitched slightly. She held up her personal terminal, "Are you ready yet? Once you're ready, I'll contact him."
"Miss Silver Moon, please wait a moment."
The Mechanic busied himself for several minutes and even brought in an external screen before signaling to Bai Fu that she could start.
Bai Fu entered a number into her personal terminal, and when the beeping sound emanated from the terminal, everyone held their breath.
Seconds later, accompanied by a light "ding" sound, a figure appeared on the screen.
It was the Truth Society Chairman, his face expressionless.
For Bai Fu, this was her second meeting with the Truth Society Chairman, not anything novel, but for the others present, especially those involved in intelligence, this was undoubtedly a historic moment.
Since joining the intelligence department, they had constantly heard the name of the Truth Society Chairman.
They had given the Chairman numerous nicknames and invited many experts to sketch his appearance based on his deeds and displayed character.
Most portraits exaggerated his ferocity and crudeness, similar to Pox-Faced Zhang, though a few portrayed him as handsome to highlight his charismatic personality. Yet, even those flattering portraits outlined a hint of ruthlessness in the corners of his eyes and his gaze.
However, when the Truth Society Chairman actually appeared, all the special agents present were stunned.
He was too ordinary, as ordinary as anyone they might encounter on their way to work.
Initially, Bai Fu had thought the same when she first met the Truth Society Chairman, but her thoughts weren't as profound as Su Li's, as her interactions with the Chairman had been too brief.
"Really? Could this be a body double?"
"If he really looks , does it mean that one day in the past, while we were investigating him, he might have been sitting nearby?"
People always find it hard to change a perception once it's formed in their minds.
Ignoring the other people around her, Bai Fu said, "I heard you wanted to talk to me?"
The Chairman extended his right hand and made a four gesture: "Since your name appeared in the Combat Department's report, I have suffered four losses at your hands—experiences I haven't had in many years."
"This won't be the end," Bai Fu said.
The Chairman wasn't angry, "But I don't think so, the minor skirmishes have ended, Bai Fu, this will be your closest attempt to killing me!"
Before Bai Fu could respond, Beixim couldn't contain himself.
He laughed loudly and mocked, "A rat from the sewers dares to spout such nonsense? Next time we meet, I'll personally twist your head off your neck!"
The Chairman remained calm, simply expelling one word from his mouth: "Scram."
That word hit Beixim like a bullet to the heart.
"Mutant, do you even deserve to tell me to scram? If you really had the guts, you'd come out right now!"
The Chairman just stared at Beixim silently.
Beixim wanted to curse more, but suddenly felt as if he plunged into an ice cave, a chill rushing from his tailbone up to the crown of his head, his body uncontrollably shuddering.
Furious, Beixim was about to make a move when Ding Hongtao from the Human Alliance stopped him.
"Shut up, now is not the time for such nonsense."
Not just Ding Hongtao, everyone but those from the Old Republic wore unfriendly looks, and Beixim could only sullenly shut his mouth.
Bai Fu slightly raised an eyebrow and asked, "You wouldn't go through all this trouble just to throw a few harsh words at me."
The Chairman said, "I'm curious what kind of person you are. I dispatched someone to covertly investigate your identity when you collaborated with the Genetic Primordial, but my report came back blank."
Bai Fu responded, "Is it possible my past is as ordinary as your appearance, so ordinary that it seems like a blank slate?"
The Chairman shook his head, "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I have already triggered people to investigate. I believe others are also very curious about your real identity."
You see, when I tell the truth no one believes it, so I can only keep playing mysterious and letting their imaginations wander.
You really have made "me" suffer!
"Bai Fu, actually, we don't have to be enemies. If you are willing to surrender and join the Truth Society, I can forgive all your past offenses and share the advanced Spiritual Ability Knowledge."
