Infinite Hextech, I roam freely across the heavens.
Chapter 73 Catching the Big Fish
But it's too late to say anything now.
Looking at Meng Li, he forced a somewhat humble smile.
"Mighty Hero, I admit that I did send Wang Minghui to capture Xu Mingyuan, but I absolutely did not do it to harm her, but to protect her."
"There are people in the resistance who want to harm Xu Mingyuan. I am his father's good brother, so how can I stand by and do nothing?"
As he spoke, a few tears even welled up in Xu Mingyang's eyes.
The rights of those with superpowers are absolute.
Furthermore, now that he was a prisoner, Xu Mingyang immediately realized that if he couldn't persuade Meng Li, he would surely die.
The other party has no shortage of power, women, or money.
If he wanted to persuade the other party, he could only play the emotional card.
Meng Li couldn't help but look at Xu Mingyang with newfound respect for his current performance.
With quick reflexes and a good attitude, he might have become a wealthy capitalist worthy of being hung on a street lamp in the ordinary world. But unfortunately, he was born in this world dominated by superpowered individuals.
Even if one has deep-seated prejudices, one cannot transcend class in today's world.
"Stop lying. Tell the truth, and I'll leave you a whole body. I won't kill your wife either."
"Sir, I'm just telling the truth."
Your wife is pregnant.
After he finished speaking, Xu Mingyang fell into complete silence.
Even he only found out about this from his wife's phone call just now, but now Meng Li has bluntly pointed it out.
At this moment, his expression seemed to freeze, and his originally rosy flesh gradually turned pale.
He could tell that Meng Li knew him far better than he had imagined.
After a long while, he finally asked:
"Can you really let my wife go? How can you guarantee that?"
"I can't guarantee it, but I won't lie."
"Okay, I believe you."
Looking into Meng Li's eyes, Xu Mingyang spoke slowly, his expression returning to calm.
He's definitely a smart person.
With his methods, he might even ask Obsidian for help if necessary. At that time, no matter what schemes Xu Mingyang might have, he would surely confess under severe torture.
He has plenty of time to wear down the other party.
The other party's tactful manner saved him a lot of trouble.
"What is it that you want to know?"
"The first thing, why did you arrest Xu Mingyuan?"
"For something."
"Wang Minghui should have told you that I used to be Xu Mingyuan's father's brother. We had a very good relationship, so I know a lot of secrets."
Xu Mingyuan's father had researched artificially created ability users within the resistance army, and he had even achieved results.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Mingyang spoke fluently, like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.
"Artificial ability user?"
"That's right. Although I don't know the specifics, the resistance is indeed researching the possibility of creating artificial superhumans, and it's said that they're close to success."
Xu Mingyang's tone was somewhat heated.
Meng Li actually knew a bit about this.
After all, more than 20 years later, the resistance actually created an absolute power user who beat up Z Superman.
"Go on."
"Later, Xu Mingyuan's father went undercover at the research institute, and it is said that he left something behind. I think it is most likely something he brought out when he was involved in creating artificial ability users."
"You don't know what it is?"
"I don't know. Only Xu Mingyuan's father knows about that thing, and only Xu Mingyuan can unlock the method to open it."
No wonder the other party only needed to borrow Xu Mingyuan for a period of time; I didn't expect the difficulty to be here.
"Then how can you be sure it will work for you?"
"I'm not sure... but I have to do it."
"Spurred on by that group of mysterious people, Superman Z's actions are becoming more and more frequent, and more and more members of the organization are being exposed. I must seize every opportunity."
"Although Xu Mingyuan's father did not have a very high rank in the organization, he held a very high position, and what he left behind would not be simple."
From his perspective, his pursuit of a way to make a living is understandable.
But judging from the information he knew, his relationship with Xu Mingyuan's father was definitely not bad, and for him to sell his brother's only daughter for such a small chance of gaining benefits, he can only be described as a pure beast.
However, if the other party hadn't attacked Xu Mingyuan, so many things wouldn't have happened, and it wouldn't have attracted Meng Li's attention. It can only be said that fate had its own plans, and all the scheming backfired, costing her her life.
Where is that thing?
Meng Li grasped the key point immediately.
"It's in one of my secret bases, but the defenses there require me to unlock them myself..."
Watching Meng Li's expression, Xu Mingyang spoke with some deliberation.
"Then go there and tell me the location."
Swift and decisive.
When Meng Li carried him out of the villa, Xu Mingyang was still a little dazed.
He hadn't expected Meng Li to believe him so easily, and even bring him out like this. He thought he would have to use a lot of words, and he had even prepared a draft in his mind, but now, with Meng Li's cooperation, it was all useless.
However, given the current situation with no way out, he certainly didn't intend to lie.
Along the way, under Xu Mingyang's instructions, Meng Li's figure quickly passed by buildings, and soon they stopped in front of an ordinary house.
This place isn't too far from Xu Mingyang's true body's residence, so it seems the other party also attaches great importance to it. Although they didn't put the item directly in their home, they kept it right under their noses.
"Right here."
After putting Xu Mingyang down, they watched him touch and twist this and that in the room. Soon, the bed in his bedroom was moved aside, revealing a staircase leading downstairs.
"Sir, shall I go first?"
He turned to look at Meng Li and said.
From beginning to end, Xu Mingyang appeared extremely obedient.
To avoid causing Meng Li any concern, he offered to go ahead first, with Meng Li following behind.
Hearing his words.
Meng Li looked at Xu Mingyang and stared at him for a few seconds.
Just as the other party seemed a little awkward, he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, you can go first."
The two went down one after the other.
For a moment, the atmosphere between the two sides became somewhat awkward because of Meng Li's strange behavior.
In this slightly eerie atmosphere, the two descended into a basement.
The building was very simple; apart from some ordinary miscellaneous items, it looked completely normal.
At this moment, Xu Mingyang did not stop.
With a rumbling sound, another narrow hidden door opened in the basement, and through the door, Meng Li could see a silver-white box on the shelf in the center.
"Is this what Xu Mingyuan's father left behind?"
"That's right, opening this box requires Xu Mingyuan's verification. If it is forcibly opened, it will self-destruct."
Xu Mingyang bowed his head respectfully and said.
