Chapter 86: Strong Relationships, Counting the Harvest

As Chen Ming pulled the trigger.

The gun in his hand vibrated slightly, and the bullet shot out took Shen Yi's life.

Shen Yi's body instantly fell down like a building that had lost its support, and his lifeless eyes stared at the broken ceiling of the exhibition hall.

For some reason, this moment was deeply engraved in Chen Ming's mind.

A few seconds after the body fell, Chen Ming exhaled slightly.

This should be the first time he killed someone at close range with his own hands. Before, he controlled the spacecraft and killed people with ship weapons, and there was no special feeling.

Now that he personally watched people die in front of him, Chen Ming felt a little emotional fluctuation.

Of course, just a little.

It was not even as much as the stimulation given to him by the Whispering Stone.

As for what Lao Wu said just now about Lude's thoughts, Chen Ming basically had no feeling now.

Anyway, he had a good mentality, and he didn't have to worry about a lot of debts.

He was not even afraid of the military, so why should he be afraid of a group of crazy people who were completely unpresentable?

Chen Ming didn't say that he had no way out and no one could protect him. Even now, if Zuo Jing wanted to trouble him, he had to consider the situation on the boss' side.

Chen Ming temporarily put away all the ideas in his mind and put the pistol back into the holster.

He took a step forward, bent down, and reached into Shen Yi's pocket.

He immediately touched a slightly hot mechanical creation, and a slight whisper sounded in his mind.

It seems that the spiritual stone installed inside this device is also whispering.

Although Chen Ming felt a little sorry, it was a spiritual stone anyway.

And the device outside is also quite valuable. Maybe he can try to repair it after taking it back.

Chen Ming stuffed the device into his protective suit pocket and continued to grope the body.

Another pocket of Shen Yi's clothes also looked bulging.

Chen Ming rummaged inside and found a remote control and a box that looked very special.

"What is this?"

Chen Ming placed the box in his palm and stretched out his hand to open it.

There was some soft material inside the box, which padded a groove-like space, just enough to put down the device Chen Ming had just taken.

Chen Ming tried it a little and found that as long as he put the device in and closed the box, even if he held the box in his own hands, he would not feel any influence of the whispering stone inside.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yi had such a good thing, so Chen Ming put it away directly.

He continued to look for it, and except for a terminal that he didn't know if it was Shen Yi's own, he didn't find anything valuable.

So he stood up again and looked around. There was no one standing in the entire exhibition hall except him and Lao Wu.

All the people in Zuojing were dead, and the others had at least one mental pulse. If there were still people standing, it would be really strange.

Then the question came.

Chen Ming looked at Lao Wu next to him and asked, "Lao Wu, you just said that the outside has been blocked?"

"Yes, it has been surrounded by some ordinary guards, and they are waiting for more professional people to handle the matter."

Chen Ming nodded, lowered his head and thought about how he should take this box and the device in the box to leave here safely when the exhibition hall is blocked?

Lao Wu immediately saw what Chen Ming was thinking and said, "Xiao Mu, don't think too much."

"Look here, how many living people? How many dead people? Add up to more than a few hundred, each of them has been hit by at least one mental pulse. Do you think that when the people behind come, they can still search and investigate without caring about human lives? They must be sent to the hospital first."

"Your stuff is fine, and there will be plenty of opportunities to leave later."

"It doesn't matter even if you are caught, there is Lao Wu's relationship to get us out."

"I have just contacted him, and this kind of thing can be solved by just saying a word."

Seeing Lao Wu's confident look, Chen Ming was also a little relieved.

Unexpectedly, the boss not only has connections with Xinda Company, but also has connections with the government.

Chen Ming couldn't help but ask: "What is the boss's identity?"

Old Wu spread his hands and said: "You have to ask him yourself."

"Okay."

Chen Ming was not very surprised by this result.

"Then we won't rush into the trap, let's go to the monitoring room first."

"See if there are any people from Zuo Jing who have been missed, and by the way, confirm the current status of the monitoring equipment. If there are any recordings of our previous situation, it is better to delete them."

"No problem."

Chen Ming took Old Wu and found the monitoring room in the staff area according to the map of the exhibition hall he saw when entering the exhibition hall.

The door of the monitoring room was ajar at this time. Chen Ming carefully stuck to the wall next to the door and looked inside through the crack of the door.

The monitoring room was also dark at this time, and there was no movement from inside.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual inside, Chen Ming kicked the door of the monitoring room open.

He casually threw a piece of cloth that he had just picked up on the road to cover the exhibits into the room.

There was still no movement inside.

"Okay, there should be no danger, go in."

Chen Ming waved to Lao Wu and walked into the monitoring room first.

After entering, Chen Ming found that all the equipment in the monitoring room had been completely destroyed.

It was still a physical destruction. In addition to being blown to pieces by blunt instruments, there were even signs of burning.

And on the ground next to them, there were three people wearing exhibition hall employee uniforms lying on the ground.

One was in a coma, and the other two were dead.

The cause of death was that they were all attacked by blunt instruments in the head.

And on the ground next to the unconscious person, there happened to be a bloody hammer.

It seems that the situation should be very obvious.

There was an employee of the exhibition hall named Lu De Zuo Jing. When Shen Yi made a move, he suddenly jumped up and killed two ordinary employees with sneak attacks and weapons.

After killing the man, he did not leave, but fainted due to mental pulse while destroying the equipment.

The blood on the hands and face of the unconscious person just proved this conjecture.

Then Chen Ming naturally had nothing to say, and helped the unconscious Zuo Jing on the ground to meet his god with a gun.

Then he relied on the tools in the tool bag he brought with him to dismantle the scrapped equipment.

It was confirmed that all storage devices had been destroyed and there was no possibility of repair by any technical means.

Chen Ming tried his best to restore the scene and put away his tools.

When he glanced at the fresh corpse on the ground, he suddenly realized something. Zuo Jing, who had just exploded over there, did not faint because of mental pulse, but Zuo Jing, who was responsible for cutting off the surveillance here, fainted.

This means that Zuo Jing must have a way to block mental pulses like Lao Wu, but it was not given to this Zuo Jing.

Then this method...

Chen Ming suddenly raised his head and said to Old Wu who was working in the cabinet next to the monitoring room: "Old Wu, do you know why those Zuo Jings didn't faint just now?"

"Hey, you really asked the right person."

Old Wu said, and quickly took a picture of a document with the terminal and stuffed the document back.

Turning around, he said to Chen Ming, "I heard, I heard, there is such a thing, called the Mind Silence Device."

"It can be implanted in the human brain, so that people will no longer be affected by any psychic energy directly targeting the spirit, including psychic pulses, but the implanted person will lose the possibility of mastering psychic energy forever."

"Those Zuo Jings may have had this thing implanted in their heads, but their bodies were blown up and there is no way to verify it, so I am just guessing, it is hard to say whether it is right or not."

Chen Ming nodded slightly and said, "What about you? Do you rely on this device? If it is inconvenient to say, you don't have to say it."

Old Wu did not hide this from Chen Ming, and said, "Old Wu helped me do it, and I don't know what he did specifically, but anyway, this kind of psychic pulse has basically no effect on me, oh, and the same is true for Old Lu."

Chen Ming suddenly recalled what the boss said before, that he helped Chen Ming cover up Chen Ming's psychic fluctuations, which should be achieved using similar psychic abilities.

"I understand."

Currently, it is known that the boss's psychic power has the effect of understanding people's personality, protecting against mental pulses, and at most covering up psychic fluctuations.

Although these three seem to have nothing to do with each other, Chen Ming still plans to write them down first. Maybe he can analyze the boss's specific psychic power in the future.

Just when Chen Ming was about to go back to the exhibition hall and wait for the guards outside to come in, Lao Wu suddenly picked up the terminal and said, "Lao Wu sent me a message."

He clicked twice on the terminal and played the voice message sent by the boss directly.

"Old Wu, I've explained the situation to you. Just go out. Someone will come to find you later. Just follow his instructions."

The boss' voice suddenly paused, and then continued: "I can only say that Xiao Mu does have some special qualities that others don't have. It's really interesting."

Hearing this, Chen Ming looked at Old Wu with some confusion and asked: "What special qualities?"

Old Wu's face showed the same expression as when he told Chen Ming that the boss had a bad taste: "Hehe, guess."

"Tsk."

Chen Ming stared at Old Wu, but Old Wu seemed not to see it and walked out whistling.

Chen Ming had no choice but to follow him to the main entrance of the exhibition hall.

Before going out, Old Wu hid in the shadows next to the exhibition hall door and waved to the outside.

After confirming that he was seen by the ordinary guards who were besieging the exhibition hall outside, he walked out with his hands raised high.

And Chen Ming also did the same thing and followed him out of the exhibition hall.

As Chen Ming and Old Wu approached the isolation belt set up by the guards.

Immediately, several guards jumped over the isolation belt and rushed over, trying to control them.

But then someone behind him suddenly said to the guards who rushed out: "Stop, don't touch them."

A man who was about fifty years old, wearing a guard uniform and very strong, immediately followed and climbed over the isolation belt and came to Chen Ming and Lao Wu.

Chen Ming noticed that the guards around him looked at him with respect, and his shoulder straps were different from those of other guards. He should be their boss.

The guard's boss showed a friendly expression and said: "Are you two friends of Mr. Wu?"

"Yes."

He made a gesture of invitation and said: "Please follow me."

Chen Ming and Lao Wu followed him into a police car, left the exhibition hall directly, and went all the way back to the Security Bureau next to the government building.

He arranged a lounge for the two and left in a hurry.

It seems that he has a lot of things to do after the terrorist attacks on both the space elevator and the exhibition hall today.

Chen Ming didn't wait in the lounge for long before someone sent two written transcripts.

The names written on them were Mu Shuikong and Wu Pingan.

The content of the transcript, to sum up, is that Chen Ming and his partner just came to the auction today and encountered a terrorist attack. Luckily, they were not injured and were rescued by the police.

The seal of the Security Bureau has been stamped on it in advance. As long as they sign their names, they can get out of this matter safely.

Old Wu took a look and signed it directly.

Chen Ming looked at it repeatedly and signed it after confirming that there was nothing wrong.

After handing the transcript to the person who just delivered the transcript.

Chen Ming and Old Wu left the Security Bureau smoothly.

There was no obstruction and no investigation.

It can only be said that the boss's face seems to be a little big.

After leaving the government park with a somewhat tense and depressing atmosphere.

Old Wu suddenly stretched his back, and said to Chen Ming with a tired look on his face: "Where are we going next?"

"Your test results should be out in a few hours, so don't waste time now."

Old Wu obviously wanted to find a place to play.

However, Chen Ming didn't want to go anywhere, so he said: "Go by yourself, I still have something to do."

After hearing what Chen Ming said, Old Wu did not find a place to have fun, but got closer, put his hand on Chen Ming's shoulder and said: "Hey, thinking about your 30 million bounty."

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's me who is thinking about it too. This is 30 million, enough to spend for a long time."

Chen Ming shook his head slightly, thinking that he had nearly 50 million before and now only had a little over 20 million left, and couldn't help saying: "Money is made quickly, but it is also spent quickly."

"Old Wu, if you are short of money, I will give you some, just as you today "Help me deal with things."

"Ah? Didn't I basically do nothing? And didn't you reimburse me for a sum of money?"

"The money you spent on fun is not even a dime. I asked you to help me with something and ended up treating you to a health check. Isn't this a joke?"

Old Wu scratched his head and said, "Then you can pay as you see fit."

"Okay."

Chen Ming responded and suddenly continued, "Old Wu, I'm actually quite curious why you are short of money."

Chen Ming couldn't figure it out. Obviously, Old Wu had a good relationship with the boss and the factory director, so making money should be easy for Old Wu.

But Old Wu has always shown that he doesn't have much money, and even cheated him who just came to the space station for several thousand yuan.

There must be some reason here.

When Old Wu heard Chen Ming's question, he said casually: "It's mainly laziness. When you have money, you are too lazy to move. When you run out of money, you will find ways to make money. It's strange that you can save money in this way."

If what Old Wu said is indeed fine for an ordinary person, it is not a reason at all for him.

However, since Old Wu did not want to elaborate, Chen Ming did not intend to explore too much.

He and Old Wu separated at the entrance of the government park.

Old Wu went to find a place to have fun, while Chen Ming ran to the space elevator while waiting for the test report from the government.

The space elevator was not damaged in the previous attack by Zuo Jing.

After all, this is the key passage between the space station and the colony. The personnel transportation elevator open to the public is only a small part, and other cargo transportation also depends on it.

If you don't arrange enough guards, you will simply hand over your life to others.

The defense strength of the space elevator is sufficient, and the supporting guards arrived nearby at the first time. The attack of Lude Zuo Jing did not cause any waves at all.

So after the order was restored in the space elevator, the elevator was opened to the public again.

It was just that the number of guards was much more visible to the naked eye.

However, this did not affect Chen Ming's smooth return to the Iron Ore.

As soon as he returned to the Iron Ore, Chen Ming took out the False Talk Stone.

When his hand touched the False Talk Stone, the illusion appeared in front of Chen Ming again.

But this time, everything in the illusion was clear, and there was no longer the previous blur.

Including the spiritual stone that fell from Shen Yi's body, and also the person holding the gun.

And the person holding the gun was Chen Ming himself.

In Chen Ming's eyes, when the scene of him shooting and killing Shen Yi was replayed by the illusion.

All these illusions suddenly disappeared and merged into the False Talk Stone.

The mental fluctuations that resonated with the False Talk Stone before the death of the pirate leader were completely assimilated with it and became a part of it.

And just after the illusion completely disappeared, Chen Ming found that he could completely block the crazy voices of the False Talk Stone, and he could also choose to accept the influence of the False Talk Stone on him at any time.

To be precise. It was not that Chen Ming blocked the influence himself. But he could actually control whether the effect of the False Talk Stone was effective.

It seems that after Chen Ming realized the illusion of resonance, the Falsehood Stone was connected to him.

He can control the Falsehood Stone like he controls the spaceship.

This should be regarded as Chen Ming controlling it with psychic energy.

However, Chen Ming still cannot use psychic energy fluctuations as arbitrarily as the boss, and it is only effective when controlling this Falsehood Stone.

Although the effect does not seem to be very good, Chen Ming still thinks it is very good. At least in this way, he can carry this Falsehood Stone anytime and anywhere.

And it is not only Chen Ming's control over the Falsehood Stone.

When he opened the panel, he could see that the name of the Falsehood Stone changed again from [Spirit Stone (Falsehood)] to [Resonance Spirit Stone (Falsehood)].

The change in name also brought about a change in effect.

When Chen Ming controlled the Falsehood Stone to affect him again.

Chen Ming was not only instantly affected by the terrifying delirium in his mind, but even his body instantly showed an uncomfortable reaction.

Tinnitus and dizziness, anxiety and fright, fear and pain, and a hint of uncontrollable madness.

Even if Chen Ming turned off the switch of the liar stone instantly.

But the effect still lasted for a few minutes before returning to normal, and Chen Ming could feel that his mental power had been consumed to a certain extent.

The effect of the resonance liar stone is stronger than before, and the effect of using it for training will definitely be better.

Chen Ming put away the liar stone.

Then he took out the device that he had taken from Shen Yi and placed in a box with a shielding function.

Its name is [Portable Mind Wave Generator (Destroyed)]

There is also a prompt on the panel that the number of remaining uses is 0/3.

Although it is slightly different from the mind pulse device that Chen Ming guessed before, that is, the name is mind wave, but the overall effect is still similar.

It can be repaired and modified like all other mechanical equipment Chen Ming has seen.

The materials needed to repair this device surprised Chen Ming a little.

Such a small generator uses more types of materials than all the equipment Chen Ming has seen.

So Chen Ming took another look at the materials that could be obtained by dismantling it with curiosity, and found that there were a small amount of special-grade materials mixed in it.

Although the device looks like a very ordinary mechanical object, it may have a complex structure inside that is far beyond Chen Ming's imagination.

But think about it, Chen Ming did dismantle some valuable materials when he dismantled the mechanical family's mind pulse generator before.

Moreover, the size of the mechanical family's equipment is many times larger than this small device.

It is reasonable that the materials used are complex and advanced.

Fortunately, the special materials used to make this device are not consumables affected by the number of uses, and Chen Ming does not need to repair them.

Although the demand for other materials is large in quantity, the requirements are not high.

As long as Chen Ming is willing to spend some time looking for it, he can even find all the materials needed for repair here directly.

But this matter is not urgent.

Not only because Chen Ming has other things to do in the remaining hours.

Also, if he goes back, Chen Ming can buy materials from the owner of the store recommended by Lao Wu before, and the price can be cheaper.

The overall price here in the capital is much higher than that in the space station.

Besides the repair function, Chen Ming also had to take a look at the function of modifying this device.

Then Chen Ming found that the modification of this generator was even more important.

Although Chen Ming had little knowledge of psychic energy and was not clear about the internal structure of this generator, a modification option still appeared on the modification panel.

The option to replace the internal spiritual stone.

His liar stone could be directly modified into it, without any consumption except mental power.

However, such a whispering stone that had no effect on Chen Ming could cause large-scale coma of people in a large area.

If the liar stone, which can now cause Chen Ming to have sequelae for several minutes, is put in and activated, Chen Ming estimates that the situation he encountered on Ruimu will be repeated.

This is not what he wants to see.

And Chen Ming actually has another idea now.

Since the liar stone cannot be put in, if the boss's "gentle" spirit stone is put in, will the released mental pulse have the opposite effect?

This idea may be asked to the boss after returning.

Chen Ming still temporarily puts the generator in the box that was also taken from Shen Yi, and will deal with it when he returns.

Chen Ming also took a look at this box, the name is [Mind Blocking Box].

It should be something specially used to store spirit stones. After disassembling it, a material called Silent Alloy can be obtained.

Chen Ming has never heard of it, but it is definitely a special metal-level material that is more advanced than high-level metal materials.

Later, you can also ask the knowledgeable boss.

After putting away the portable mental wave generator.

Then the highlight is coming.

Chen Ming turned off the panels in front of him.

Then he opened the panel of the armor-piercing ship he was controlling.
