Chapter 258, Episode 0272: Who could have imagined this?

Lin Yuexi didn't dwell on the possibility of information leakage, after all, it was just a possibility. She was simply reminding her father that the research institute was not safe.

She discovered this by chance while working at the research institute. The other party was just a minor figure and did not have the authority to enter important areas. Originally, Lin Yuexi came back this time to find an excuse to remind her father. She happened to mention that her information might have been leaked, and took the opportunity to ask her father to investigate the entire research institute again.

After pouring her father a glass of water, Lin Yuexi told him about Zhao Jiao, which Huo Han had mentioned.

Leng Zhi's expression remained calm, showing no surprise. "Xiao Huo has already told me about this. Zhao Jiao is a dangerous element, but there's no way to convict him of what he did, and there's no reason to arrest him. The Northwest is still unstable, and someone like him is very disadvantageous to us outside."

so···

A sharp glint flashed in Leng Zhi's eyes.

Lin Yuexi knew that her father must have a plan in mind. Originally, she was planning to do something in the middle of the night, but after seeing her father's dangerous expression, she decided to be a good girl.

The next day, she went to work as usual.

The matter of the power plant was considered settled for her. Surprisingly, YX decided to create a series, which was not a difficult task for Lin Yuexi. So she devoted all her energy to this series.

A dozen days later, Xiao Ye secretly led a group to deliver the data to the military factory, and Lin Yuexi finally stretched and came out of the research institute.

As soon as she left the research institute, Xu Shan told her about what had happened outside during her more than ten days of "seclusion".

First, there was Zhao Jiao, who was skilled in PUA. Four nights ago, on the same bridge where Wang Xiaoxiang fell into the water, he also accidentally slipped and fell into the water, drowning.

"Huh?" What a coincidence.

Xu Shan looked around to make sure no one was around, then whispered, "It's Captain Wang. It turns out Wang Xiaoni has also been mentally controlled by Zhao Jiao. She listens to everything Zhao Jiao says. Last time she pushed Wang Xiaoxiang, it was because Zhao Jiao guided her. Wang Xiaoxiang is showing signs of lucidity, and Zhao Jiao is afraid that Wang Xiaoxiang will tell Captain Wang his secret."

"secret?"

How could someone like Zhao Jiao, who didn't even have any problems following Huo Han's men, reveal a secret to Wang Xiaoxiang?

“Zhao Jiao is the illegitimate son of the deputy director of the Xuan Province Committee. His ability to manipulate people was taught to him from a young age by his own father.”

"Hiss~" Lin Yuexi gasped.

"How did this get dragged into a color-related issue?"

Xu Shan grinned. Who would have thought?!
"The deputy director of the Xuan Province Committee is surnamed Bing and named Bing Kun. He used to be a local thug from Zhao Jiao's hometown."

When this matter was investigated, everyone who heard or saw the information was utterly shocked.

Zhao Jiao's father and his family were all severely patriarchal. They felt that without a son, they couldn't stand up straight, and no one would break their bowls after they died. They also felt that no one would offer incense to them in the afterlife.

After Zhao Jiao's mother married Zhao Jiao's father, she gave birth to five children, all of whom were girls. After the fifth child was born, Zhao Jiao's father's family made a unified statement and informed Zhao Jiao's mother directly that if the sixth child was also a girl, their family would not be able to accept her and the previous five girls.

Zhao Jiao's mother was scared, so she went back to her parents' home to ask her mother for help.

The mother and daughter were discussing finding a secret formula for conceiving a child to drink when Bingkun took his wife and children back to his hometown to visit relatives.

Looking at Bingkun's four sons, Zhao Jiao's maternal grandmother had a sudden inspiration.

Just a few days ago, someone from higher authorities came to their village to conduct literacy education. Besides teaching everyone to recognize characters, they also taught some appreciation skills, such as mentioning that whether a child is a boy or a girl depends not on the woman, but on the quality of the seed. All four are boys—isn't that a good seed?

By this time, Bingkun had become a squad leader in the Xuan Province Committee. Returning home to visit his family was a triumphant return. His attire and demeanor exuded an air of "I'm awesome, you can't mess with me."

Zhao Jiao's maternal grandmother didn't dare to plot against him, fearing that her good intentions would backfire and she would offend him instead.

So she openly went to Bingkun to discuss it.

Later, Zhao Jiao's mother became pregnant with her sixth child, and this child was Zhao Jiao.

When Zhao Jiao was four years old, Bingkun's father passed away, and he only found out that he had a son named Zhao Jiao when he returned home.

I don't know what Bingkun's thought process was. He treated his four sons indifferently, but he doted on Zhao Jiao, his illegitimate son, to the point of spoiling him.

From the moment they learned of his existence, they spent a fortune hiring renowned teachers to instruct him. However, the direction of this instruction was not what we imagined; instead, it taught him how to control people's hearts and how to become a pervert.

Zhao Jiao was taught very successfully.
This was only his first time doing it.

Later, he became a student at a school, a salesperson at a supply and marketing cooperative, a waiter at a guesthouse, a train attendant, and so on.

They really do pick and choose from all walks of life.

"Zhao Jiao was sent to the Northwest not because he offended someone and was being retaliated against, as it seems on the surface, but because Bingkun did it on purpose."

Lin Yuexi's gaze deepened, "Their original target was the military corps?"

Xu Shan: "Based on what the Special Forces and the leaders have found so far."

"The director of the Xuan Province Committee is He Zhengqi. The He family is an old and established family in the Northwest. They used to be a favorite of that person."

The person Xu Shan was referring to was the warlord who once controlled the Northwest.

However, no descendants of that person remain in the Northwest. Some have long since passed away, while others have fled abroad. The families that later stirred up trouble were left behind by that person's close associates.

He Zhengqi's grandfather was that person's adjutant.

"He Zhengqi has always wanted to get his hands on the Northwest Corps, but he has tried many times without success in placing people in the Corps."

“Bingkun was promoted by him. He met a man from the United States named William by chance. William was a mentally ill psychologist who was good at manipulating people’s minds. He committed a crime in the United States and fled to our country. After Bingkun learned about his abilities, he was not afraid. Instead, he planned to train a group of people who were as capable as William.”

"This way, we don't need to bother planting people in the army at all. We can just control our soldiers, which is more covert and harder to defend against."

Lin Yuexi's expression grew increasingly grim as she listened. "Judging from what you're saying, he's been doing this for quite some time now."

"Yes, fortunately, Bingkun himself had his own selfish motives and didn't dare to do it openly. William was also afraid of being discovered, so they always came quietly. Apart from Zhao Jiao, who was trained very successfully, the others were all half-baked."

Unlike Lin Yuexi, who possesses supernatural abilities, learning to manipulate people's minds is not an easy task. Furthermore, due to various obstacles, even after more than ten years, according to interrogation, they have only trained a total of eleven people. Ten of them are unaffected by anyone with a reasonably sound mind.

Only Zhao Jiao truly surpassed his master, William, in ability, even turning the tables on him.
