Kunge had his hands in his lab coat. His face was as disheveled as ever, but if you looked closely, you could see that the pockets of his lab coat were slightly bulging.
His hands in the pockets were clenched into fists, which meant that Kunge was currently in a state of extreme tension.
Ya Xiao withdrew his gaze.
Kunge seemed to be very afraid of Sheng Cheng?
The group of people quickly walked into the basement. There were a few scattered members of the organization in the corridor. When they saw Kunge, the members saluted and showed more respect than one another. Kunge waved his hand and walked into the office with the others.
"Sir, why did you not reveal your identity in the first place?"
Kunge's palm was already wet with sticky sweat. He looked at Sheng Cheng's back, somewhat unable to guess what exactly the other party was here to do and why he had to use the identity of an officer from the Sixth Base to approach Sheldor.
Could it be that that lord suspected Sheldor of betraying the organization?
"Where is Sheldor?"
Sheng Cheng did not answer the waste's question. He frowned directly in an arrogant tone.
"I have just sent a message to Sheldor. He will come to this room soon." Seeing Sheng Cheng ignoring his question, Kunge didn't dare to ask again. He just lowered his head and respectfully answered Sheng Cheng.
"I'll go and rush Sheldor again so that he comes over quickly." Seeing that the supporter frowned again, Kunge had to add another sentence.
Sheng Cheng hmmed, sitting on the soft chair with his legs crossed. His eyes crossed from Kunge to the dark-haired, blue-eyed youth next to him, Ya Bu.
"Are you new to the organization?"
Sheng Cheng tugged at the corner of his mouth as if a superior was asking a humble subordinate whose name was unknown with a bit of carelessness.
Ya Xiao looked at Sheng Cheng's performance. The smile in his eyes deepened a bit, he arched his eyebrows, and his tone was as respectful as Kunge's: "Yes, Sir."
Sheng Cheng looked at that pair of familiar blue eyes. Thinking of the pile of official business he had to deal with when he got back, his heart was angry, and his eyes couldn't help but let out a few points of murderous intent.
Although Kunge, who stood in front of Ya Xiao and Helring, looked like a spiritless uncle, he had already left the ranks of ordinary people after joining the organization and was very keen to notice Sheng Cheng's murderous intent towards Ya Bu.
Why did Sheng Cheng want to kill Ya Bu?
Kunhe's brain spun extremely fast, but he could not figure out where Sheng Cheng's killing intent came from. He knew that Ya Bu cared a lot about his friend Sheng Cheng, and even not long ago when he knew that the organization was going to assassinate Sheng Cheng, Ya Bu had the courage to ask himself why he wanted to kill Sheng Cheng and was not willing to participate in the assassination at all.
Now, Sheng Cheng wanted to kill Ya Bu. Could it be that he was angry because he thought his best friend was trying to kill him?
No, Sheng Cheng didn't have any killing intent towards him and Helring, which meant that being assassinated by the organization wasn't too important in Sheng Cheng's eyes, so how could he be so demanding towards his friend?
Unable to get a reasonable explanation, Kunge was full of doubts, but he didn't ask any unwise questions that would annoy Sheng Cheng.
However, it had to be said that because of Sheng Cheng's unjustified killing intent toward Ya Bu, Kunge's goodwill towards Sheng Cheng had unconsciously decreased a lot.
"Sir, Ya Bu is a newcomer who joined the organization only the day before yesterday."
Kunge was very protective of his compatriots who had joined the organization. He blocked in front of Ya Bu and explained to Sheng Cheng in a sincere tone, "He did not participate in this plan this time. He was just a bystander."
"Got it."

Sheng Cheng felt comfortable in his heart.
He sat in his chair and leisurely looked at the two men, Kunge and Helring, who stood in front of him.
Of course, he himself would not let go of this man, who was somewhat similar to Ya Xiao, so easily. However, since the other party was now a member of the organization, Sheng Cheng would not do anything too much for the time being, lest it would cause internal conflicts.
In the long run, Sheng Cheng would still have the time to deal with these black-haired, blue-eyed youths.
As for the two people in front of him who almost killed himself, Sheng Cheng said that he was not angry. After all, this group of losers on the one hand couldn't kill himself, and on the other hand, it also showed that that guy Sheldor probably didn't betray the organization.
Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have let someone assassinate a Sixth Base officer.
But after that, he would have to try and test it again.
Sheng Cheng's mind turned, and he looked at Kunge again, "You guys clean up all that garbage in my car. I don't want to see something like that again next time."
"Yes!"
Kunge hurriedly answered, "I've already instructed my subordinates to take care of it. I guarantee that it won't happen again."
Sheng Cheng was satisfied.
It was at this moment that Ya Bu brought the cup of water over.
"It's a bit hot, be careful."
Ya Bu reminded rather thoughtfully.
Sheng Cheng was secretly pleased when he heard this and was about to knock over the cup when Sheldor walked in from outside the door.
The movement in Sheng Cheng's hand slightly paused, and without half a smile in his eyes, he turned to Sheldor:
"I'm really sorry Sheldor. I just came to the club to play for a few days, I didn't expect to cause trouble for you guys."
Sheldor's eyes were wrapped in a circle of white gauze. Hearing these words, his tone took on a few apologies, "It's our side that didn't investigate clearly. We're deeply sorry for the unpleasantness caused to you."
The two people falsely blamed themselves to each other for a long time.
After a few moments, Sheldor stopped first, and he turned his head to look at Kunge.
"You go ahead and take Ya Bu and Helring out."
Sheng Cheng did not utter a word to stop them, apparently agreeing to let Kunge and the others out.
Seeing this, Kunge nodded, knowing that it was not appropriate for them to know the next words. After bowing respectfully to Sheng Cheng, he turned around and led the two out.
The door closed in response. Sheng Cheng sat in the room with Sheldor standing respectfully beside him.
Now, he finally had the feeling of being above the people, this period of time had been suffocating him.
Sheng Cheng leaned against the sofa and posed, the corners of his mouth arched. He picked up a glass of water to hide the smile at the corners of his mouth and took a sip.
The next second, burning hotness came from the tip of his tongue.
Sheng Cheng: ...... F*ck, why is it so hot?
Ya Bu had warned him that the water was hot, but these few minutes were enough for the water temperature to come down. How come this water didn't change and it was still just as hot?
Just how many degrees had he received before!
Sheng Cheng's expression twisted a little as he was scalded.
Although Sheldor had instruments that could assist him in seeing, the instruments were not very accurate in the end. Many of the micro-expressions of humans could not be mapped in his mind.
"My lord, is something wrong?"
Sheldor asked hesitantly.
Sheng Cheng naturally couldn't say something like the water was too hot. He forced a smile and said, "No, don't worry about it."
On the other hand, Ya Xiao sighed to the system in his heart and said rather hurtfully, [Recently, the points are being used up faster and faster, so I have to save them or else I'll have to take time to enter the virtual space to learn and earn points].
System: ......
Host, you also know that you use your points too quickly, so why did you especially spend your points to buy a disposable thermos cup for Sheng Cheng just now?
[I didn't find the cup in the room at that time.]
Ya Xiao seemed to know what Fourth Uncle was thinking and curved his eyes in a good-natured manner to explain.
[Yes, I didn't find it at that time either.]
The system replied without hesitation. After all, it had already reached old age, and it was normal that it could not see the cup on the table with its eyes open.
Ya Xiao nodded his head in satisfaction. He asked Fourth Uncle to continue to monitor Sheng Cheng's side, while he came up next to Helring and Kunge to inquire about the news.
Helring was a bit younger than Kunge, and the experience of the night had given him a few companionable feelings for Ya Xiao. He was happy to tell Ya Xiao everything he knew.
"The supporter is a subordinate sent by that lord."
"That lord?"
Another unknown being, Ya Xiao felt that things were getting interesting.
Helring was a little surprised that Ya Xiao didn't know about that lord, but he quickly remembered that Ya Xiao had only joined the organization the day before. It was only normal that he didn't know about that lord's existence.
"That lord is the existence that tells us the truth."
Helring's tone carried respect and gratitude, "It's okay if you don't know now. You'll understand what I'm feeling right now after a short while."
Ya Xiao nodded hesitantly as he watched Helring's performance. So, that person was probably the one who created the organization?
Seeing that Helring was not prepared to say more, Ya Xiao thought for a moment and looked slightly sideways at Helring, asking quietly in a puzzled tone, "Why did the supporter cut himself just now?"
This was the thing he was most curious about.
Ya Xiao knew that Sheng Cheng's strength was not strong at all, but the other party had seemed to know beforehand that they were hiding in the shadows ready to wait for an opportunity to assassinate themselves.
Helring and Kunge could clearly kill Sheng Cheng very easily, but at that time, Sheng Cheng looked like he was standing at the top of the food chain arrogantly.
This was not right no matter how you think about it.
Moreover, Ya Xiao still remembered the reaction of Helring and Kunge after Sheng Cheng cut himself. They instantly judged Sheng Cheng's true identity by the smell of blood.
There was definitely something odd about Sheng Cheng's blood.
Ya Xiao looked at Helring, his eyes filled with curiosity.
Helring paused for a moment and instead of answering, he glanced at Kunge.
The middle-aged man was yawning and didn't seem to care about what they were talking about. Helring knew clearly that this was the meaning of agreeing to tell Ya Bu about those things by himself.
Since Ya Bu had joined the organization, he would know about them sooner or later.
He turned his head and briefly explained, "That lord has presided over human experiments. Sir Supporter had been a part of the experiments, and his blood contains substances that can improve the body's quality."
"We had all carried out missions with the help of his blood. Once we revealed our killing intent towards him, it would immediately be sensed by the supporter."
Ya Xiao vaguely guessed that Sheng Cheng's blood wasn't normal. He wasn't too surprised to hear this explanation, except that as an ordinary person, "Ya Bu" certainly wouldn't have reacted in such a way.
"Human experiments?"
The young man with black hair braided into a scorpion braid had a somewhat uncomfortable look on his face. He pursed his thin lips, seemingly uncomfortable with the organization's behavior, "The base prohibits such behavior. Human experimentation is illegal, isn't it?"
"Don't worry."
Helring patted his shoulder as if he was comforting, "It's not as serious as you think, it's just a surgery that was performed. That lord is very rich in justice, and the supporter also volunteered to conduct the experiment."
Seeing that the black-haired youth's face was still a bit odd, Helring continued, "Before the experiment, both sides signed an agreement. As you can see, the supporter survived. The surgery was very successful and did not cause any deaths."
The dark-haired young man's face eased up a lot when he heard this.
"Will I use his blood as well?"
Ya Bu's voice line trembled slightly as if he hadn't fully accepted the matter yet.
"Not for now."
Ya Bu's behavior was almost exactly the same as his situation at that time, but Helring had long since adapted to this matter by now, and he slowly said, "The blood of the supporter is extremely rare and won't be given to just anyone, so we'll talk about it when you start your mission."
Ya Bu temporarily relaxed his heart, only that he had received too many things today. His face was a bit pale, and his eyebrows revealed a few points of fatigue.
"Ya Bu, you go back and rest first."
Kunge, who was smoking next to him, watched Helring make his decision after finishing everything.
Originally, these shouldn't have been told to the newcomer so early, but who let the other party even happen to bump into the supporter? So, they could only reveal it to the newcomer earlier so that he could get ready.
"Okay."
Hearing his superior's order, the black-haired young man nodded in a trance, and after a while, he got up and left the basement.
