Why did you provoke me?

Upon hearing Niannian ask him if he wanted to see it, the person sitting opposite Xiao Wen quickly replied, "Can I see it?"

"Sure, why not?" Niannian readily agreed.

"Don't look." That was Jia Daoyi's voice.

Jia Daoyi took a deep breath. "I know you shouldn't look at that bracelet."

Jia He turned to look at Jia Daoyi, who waved his hand and said, "Continue."

Jia He looked at Xiao Wen, "Don't you have a communication bell? Why don't you use it?"

Xiao Wen looked at him intently. "The signal just suddenly dropped, and I don't know why."

"You mean one is in the dense forest and the other is outside the dense forest, so they can't contact each other?" Jia He repeated.

"Of course, if it weren't for that, it would be dark, who would go into the woods? That would be suicide!" the soldier next to Xiao Wen added.

Jia He pursed his lips, then asked, "What did you find after you went in?"

"Is it because the tree is very thick?" another soldier spoke up. "Have you been to the Alien Battlefield? Do you know how dangerous the forest is at night? We went in to look for people. If we didn't find anyone, what would we be looking for? Unless it's dangerous, we didn't see anything."

Xiao Wen coughed. "Sorry, they're just too straightforward. They're getting anxious because of the way you asked them."

Jia He looked at Jia Daoyi again. He had never been to the Alien Battlefield, so he asked a few questions but couldn't find a starting point.

"Let's just talk about it casually. That dense forest is the most mysterious place, and your experiences there must have been quite eventful," Jia Daoyi finally said.

Xiao Wen nodded. "When we first went in, it was almost dark. We didn't pay attention to anything else except looking for people. The main thing is that we had no idea of ​​the value of this dense forest."

"Yes, finding them and getting them out as soon as possible is the most urgent thing," someone nearby chimed in.

Jia He did not interrupt their conversation. He was a smart man; he simply wrote down everything they said and would analyze it slowly when he got back.

"Do your communication bells work in the woods?" Niannian asked from a corner.

Jia He also looked up at Xiao Wen.

Xiao Wen smiled wryly, "We were all in such a hurry to find someone that we forgot about this. We had already gone deep into the dense forest, about 300 meters away, and still hadn't seen anyone. That's when someone glanced at the communication bell and sent a message, and that's when we realized it was working again."

Jia He listened to Xiao Wen's words, which were indeed full of twists and turns, but they still hadn't gotten to the point.

Jia He glanced at Jia Daoyi subtly, and Jia Daoyi shook his head.

Jia He continued to record: The sound transmission bell is usable in the dense forest.

"The trees in the dense forest were very thick, and walking in them at night was eerie and really stressful. With the communication bell, we found the person and quickly headed out of the forest following the markings, but..." Xiao Wen looked at Jia He, "we got lost. We wandered around inside all night and still couldn't find our way out."

Jia He gaped, utterly bewildered. He noted: "Marking in the dense forest is useless."

"On the second day, after daybreak, we were finally able to properly observe this dense forest," Xiao Wen sighed.

"Inside the dense forest, there were only trees and some low grass, and the ground was covered with aliens."

"I was quite happy at the time, after all, we went into the alien battlefield mainly to find aliens," someone next to me continued. "But I didn't expect that before I had even collected ten, my head started spinning, the world was spinning, and I just collapsed on the ground."

"You mean the aliens there were found?" Jia He couldn't help but ask. This time he was asking about the things in the dense forest; as for the person fainting, that wasn't his concern.

"Yes, just pick them up. You don't even need to search. Just pick what you like."

"How many are there exactly? And are there options to choose from?"

"I'm really not lying to you. Let me put it this way, you know how big our backpacks are, right? If I squat down, they could fill a whole circle of aliens around me." Afraid that Jia He wouldn't believe him, he even stood up and gestured to show the area he was referring to.

"But when you came back, it seemed like you didn't find anything?" Jia He said in a low voice.

"How can you be like this? Didn't you want to know what was going on inside the dense forest? Just like I told you." He was angry and glared at Jia He fiercely.

Jia He lowered his head and wrote in his notebook: "Alien shapes covered the ground, many of them."

Xiao Wen quickly pressed him down onto the stool. "He's an honest man; if you doubt him, he'll get angry!"

"I apologize, I shouldn't have disbelieved you." Jia He looked up at him earnestly.

He touched his head. "I'm not lying to you, there really were that many. We didn't get them back because we were robbed."

He lowered his head after saying such an embarrassing thing and didn't say another word.

……

The questioning and answering continued until very late before Xiao Wen and his group finally went home.

Jia Daoyi looked at Jia He's records and said, "Send the valuable ones to the people on the fourth front."

Jia He responded and took out his communication bell, which was quite surprising. Jia He actually had a communication bell. You know, Yu Meng only gave five to the Jia family in total, and one of them was ruined by his family's bone-drawing master.

But Jia He's presence was too weak, and he made several mistakes during the questioning, even apologizing for them, which makes his identity very intriguing.

But clearly, Xiao Wen and the others didn't know, Nian Nian didn't know, and Secretary Wu and Yu Meng knew even less.

Niannian didn't go back to her own room, but instead went to Yu Meng's room. Yu Meng looked at her warily, "We agreed yesterday that you would only stay one night."

"How stingy." Nian Nian pouted.

"Where did you go? And why are you carrying that?" Yu Meng pointed to the small notebook in Niannian's hand.

"I'm going to be a famous writer, so of course I have to seize every opportunity to gather material." Niannian waved her little notebook.

"What are your thoughts?"

"Of course, firstly, they look down on us."

Yu Meng squinted at her, "So obvious?"

"Of course, even if we didn't tell them in advance how many people would be going, they should have been able to see them when they went in. But they still didn't prepare any chairs. You know, we were just providing information, not going there to be trained."

"Are you throwing a tantrum?"

"No, I just made it clear. I learned that kind of open strategy from you." Nian Nian raised her chin, as if she was about to praise me.

"Is this how I taught you?" Yu Meng smiled faintly.

"I know I'm not quite there yet, but don't I have to learn gradually?"

"If there's a first, there should be a second. Go on."

"Secondly, I discovered that Xiao Wen and his group are really good at bluffing."

Tell me about it.

"What? They wandered around all night and didn't come out. They fought and lost. All the aliens were stolen. Also, they didn't say they were one group. Because of their different clothes, they're probably from three different factions."

"What was Jia Daoyi's expression?"

"He was calm at first, but when the topic turned to conflict and the various factions, he lowered his head and drank his tea, so I couldn't see him clearly. But I think he was worried."

"Didn't you see it clearly?"

"But you can guess! When someone has a thought, aren't they afraid of being found out? Keeping your head down and drinking tea is the best disguise."
