EBE Chapter 1342 Investigate Him
Chapter 1342 Investigate Him
It's no wonder that the person in charge is so worried.
After all, those protectors were known for their ruthlessness.
If he is indeed held accountable, he will definitely suffer the consequences.
"Don't we have any other chances? This... if this matter isn't handled properly, it could really be..."
The person in charge muttered to himself.
He shifted his gaze to the person beside him.
He hoped that these patrolling masked men could give him a good idea to get through this ordeal.
"The key to this matter now is that those few protectors will not let it go so easily."
"Even if we wanted to bribe them to shift the blame to Hua Cheng, it would be impossible..."
Upon hearing this, the person in charge felt an even greater headache.
What kind of mess is this?!
How could he not know that? It's precisely because he can't do it that he's having such a headache!
At that moment, another masked patrolman suddenly seemed to have thought of something and spoke cautiously:
"Actually, we didn't need to resort to those tricks at all, did we?"
"Why not just say that the mother tree's outburst caught us completely off guard?"
That is indeed the case.
Moreover, as long as they did not cut corners when setting up the protection.
So no matter how they investigate, there's nothing to be afraid of!
This was just an accident; the mother tree was unexpectedly enhanced, exceeding their containment capacity.
That way, even if those in higher positions want to hold someone accountable, they can't say anything!
After all, who could have imagined that the mother tree could actually exceed the containment limit!
The person in charge broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.
How do you say this?
The logic is sound, but the problem lies in... the containment rooms do indeed have issues.
In order to gain some personal benefits, the person in charge tacitly allowed his subordinates to secretly take kickbacks.
So strictly speaking, there is a real chance that the mother tree's rampage is related to them.
Once this investigation is conducted, they'll be severely punished, if not killed.
After all, everyone can see how much the higher-ups value the mother tree.
My head hurts so much.
If only those few Dharma protectors hadn't been involved.
He could easily find any excuse to make Sun Wukong the main person in charge of this incident.
In this way, they won't have to worry about being punished by their superiors.
"...How's Sun Wukong doing?" The person in charge asked his confidant listlessly.
The masked patrolman fell silent upon hearing this.
The situation on Sun Wukong's side wasn't too bad.
In fact, it could be described as being in perfect harmony with nature.
Firstly, thanks to his transformed status, ordinary people simply wouldn't dare to challenge Sun Wukong.
Secondly, the person in charge who challenged Sun Wukong earlier didn't actually gain any advantage.
This led most researchers to simply stand by and watch quietly.
Although these people had many guesses in their minds and a lot to complain about.
But no one dared to cause trouble in front of Sun Wukong.
Furthermore, Sun Wukong simply didn't want to have much interaction with these people.
This subtly creates a situation where it seems like Sun Wukong is isolated, but in reality, Sun Wukong is isolating others.
In conclusion, Sun Wukong was indeed very comfortable on his own.
After the news of the mother tree being suppressed arrived...
Everyone in the rest area relaxed.
This means they are finally safe.
The researchers in the rest area couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.
Thank goodness, we survived!
Just as Sun Wukong was about to leave with the researchers.
He was stopped in his tracks by a masked man wearing an orange mask.
Looking at the guy in front of him wearing an orange mask, Sun Wukong instinctively felt wary.
This mask is quite different in style and color from the ordinary masked people outside.
This is enough to prove that the person in front of you is special.
After flipping through the pages briefly and memorizing what he had seen, he quickly figured out that those wearing masks of this style and color were the subordinates of the legendary protectors.
These guardians each led an elite force, the kind that are usually nowhere to be seen, extremely well-hidden.
Sun Wukong never expected to encounter such a formidable character here.
Although his vigilance was at its highest, Sun Wukong did not rashly reveal it.
Instead, he deliberately feigned impatience and glanced over.
"This...you called me over because there's something you need my help with in an investigation?" Sun Wukong asked the man directly, getting straight to the point.
But the man wearing the orange mask did not speak, his eyes fixed on Sun Wukong.
Just as Sun Wukong was somewhat confused about the meaning, the man in the orange mask suddenly said in a hoarse voice, "The Dharma Protector requests your presence. Please follow me."
After saying this, the orange-masked man quickly stepped forward to lead the way for Sun Wukong.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
To be honest, he really felt that this person had a strange, almost robotic quality.
Whether it's the way he walks or anything else, he doesn't seem like a normal person.
But if you say he's a puppet, the aura he exudes doesn't seem to belong to a puppet being manipulated.
Sun Wukong, somewhat puzzled, suppressed his thoughts.
He obediently followed the Dharma protector and arrived at the place where the Dharma protector was.
To be honest, when Sun Wukong saw this hidden place with several guardians standing in different poses, his first reaction was... Wow, everyone's here!
Then, he subconsciously wanted to open his divine sense to perceive the strength and realm of these people.
Before he could take any action, the subsequent actions of the people in front of him made him hesitant to make any rash moves.
The guardian wearing a green mask was the first to raise his gun at Sun Wukong.
Then, the other guardians also took out their weapons and aimed them at Sun Wukong.
These people adopted an offensive stance, but there was not a trace of killing intent about them.
This left Sun Wukong unsure of what these people were up to.
He frowned slightly, spread his hands, and asked in confusion:
"Guardians, what are you doing? Have I offended you in some way?"
Although he appeared calm enough, he was actually on edge.
If any of these people dare to lay a hand on him, he will kill these scumbags in front of him immediately.
As for whether it will expose his identity?
These guardians even dared to kill directly on their own.
Isn't the answer to this question obvious?
“We need to verify your safety,” the protector wearing a yellow mask said coldly.
