We are from the future ark

If Chen Qi guessed correctly, this was a trap set up deliberately by Wei Yanwu, just to wait for them to fall into it.
Rhodes Island has Wei Yanwu's spies. Chen Qi now understands that this old dragon must have known some other news.
For example, his identity.
Old Wei, this old sly fellow... Chen Qi knew him too well. He was really like a centipede that was dying but still alive. Even when he was almost at the end of his rope, this guy was able to grab the last straw and live a decent life. This old sly fellow was definitely not a simple character.
What? You ask Chen Qi how he knows? What a joke. In Chen Qi's Rhode Island, who doesn't know Lao Wei, the old sly guy?
This guy is really lucky. After wandering for so long, he has never really reached the end of his rope. After arriving in Rhodes City, he used a killing move to leave Chen Qi speechless. Even though he wanted to kill this old rascal millions of times in his heart, he had no choice but to let him find a place to stay in Rhodes Island.
However, Lao Wei's life has come to an end. All the power in Rhodes City is in the hands of Chen Qi. Lao Wei, this old bastard, can no longer make any big waves. After all, that is Rhodes Island, not Longmen.
Of course, there was one thing about Old Wei that Chen Qi found very annoying. This half-dead old sly fellow would sneak into Chen Qi's private vegetable garden every few days, trying to steal some of the fruits. Every time Chen Qi caught him, he would chase him and beat him for three blocks.
However, what puzzled Chen Qi was that he couldn't even outrun this half-dead old wily fellow.
However, what concerned Chen Qi was this Madam Wen Yue.
...Why do I remember that the person next to Lao Wei was not this person? Chen Qi also felt a little strange in his heart, but he did not say it at the moment.
However, the moment Chen Qi looked at Wei Yanwu, his eyes changed slightly.
"..." Wei Yanwu, who was smoking as if nothing had happened, felt guilty for some reason after seeing Chen Qi's eyes.
However, Lao Wei was also the ruler of Longmen, and it was not easy for him to show his expression. He concealed his emotions at the moment, but his smoking frequency seemed to increase a bit.
This future kid...seems to know him? Old Wei was already thinking about it while smoking.
"Well, everyone from Rhodes Island, please take your seats."
Seeing that Chen Qi was not interested, Wen Yue realized that it would be a bit strange if she asked further, so she invited everyone to take a seat.
However, after Kal'tsit and Amiya took their seats, Chen Qi almost subconsciously raised his hand to push the stool away and sit down, but then he suddenly stopped and stood there like Skadi.
Although it was only a brief moment, and even if it was only a very small movement, all of this was captured in the eyes of Wen Yue and Wei Yanwu.
...I was careless. Chen Qi looked calm on the surface, but he was on high alert again in his heart.
This Madam Wen Yue looks gentle, but actually the murderous intent is hidden in the invisible places between the lines.
This small action has made Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue even more suspicious of Chen Qi's identity - this boy is definitely not a simple bodyguard.
If they were really guards, why would they subconsciously treat themselves as equals to the person in power? Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue looked at each other secretly and understood each other's intentions.
However, none of them pointed it out.
Because they have another trick up their sleeve.
"So, Mr. Wei Yanwu, let's talk about the cooperation between Longmen and Rhodes Island that I mentioned earlier."
"Don't worry." Wei Yanwu took a puff of cigarette and said casually, "I still have two capable assistants who are not here yet. I can't make decisions on my own without them in this negotiation."
"Even though I am the ruler of Longmen, I have already retired, so it is still necessary to let the younger generations know about everything."
"..." Kal'tsit and Amiya's eyes narrowed when they heard this. They seemed to have guessed who Wei Yanwu had called.
"Da da da."
"Here I am." A smile appeared on Wei Yanwu's face, and then, as Kal'tsit and Amiya both had somewhat stiff expressions, he spoke:
"Come in."
"Click." The door of the conference room opened, revealing the tall figure of Xingxiong first, and then two other figures came here.
All I saw was a woman with dragon horns, short sky-blue hair, and a uniform of the Imperial Guard, holding a dark red long sword, and another woman with blonde hair that was also in uniform but looked more luxurious and had a cat-like tail, coming here.
"Captain Wei Yanwu, Senior Superintendent Chen (Shi Huaiya) of Longmen reports." X2
"These two are the senior superintendents of the Imperial Guard." Wei Yanwu smiled and introduced the three people to the group from Rhodes Island.
"Xingxiong, you are all already familiar with each other, Chen, and Miss Shi Huaiya. They are all senior superintendents of the Longmen Guard Bureau. They are in charge of all matters of the Longmen Guard Bureau and are my capable assistants."
"Commander Wei, you are too kind." Chen answered meticulously, while Shi Huaiya on the side also had no expression.
"I sent this message to Rhodes Island as a senior inspector of the Longmen Guards. I just don't know what Chief Wei is here for?"
"Xiao Chen, don't be so nervous." Wei Yanwu was also a little helpless. Then, before Chen changed his address, he waved his hand and said to Chen and Shi Huaiya:
"Xiao Chen, and Miss Shi Huaiya, come and meet these people, they are the representatives of Rhodes Island."
"I've seen it before." Chen said this, but still subconsciously looked in the direction of Rhodes Island.
But at this moment, her gaze was fixed on the indifferent face of Chen Qi who was standing beside her.
"!"
But at that moment, Chen felt as if his heart had missed a beat, and his whole body was stunned.
Not good. At this moment, Kal'tsit and Amiya's expressions changed a little.
On the other side, Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue did not pay attention to the expressions of Kal'tsit and Amiya, and their eyes were fixed on Chen Qi.
This! This is Wei Yanwu's plan.
The truth of everything may be revealed at this moment!
Chapter 71: The Indifferent Chen Qi
"!"
For some reason, the moment Chen saw the face of the young man in the white coat and met his eyes, he felt his heart skip a beat and then tighten again.
An emotion that Chen Du could not describe suddenly surged into her heart, joy and sadness alternating at the same time, but finally, it slowly disappeared from the girl's heart and turned into an expressionless face.
No matter how thrilling the emotions were surging in his heart, at this moment, all of Chen's emotions turned into nothingness, and his face became as calm as ever.
"……Who are you?"
However, at this moment, the first person to speak was not Chen, but the blonde Shi Huaiya who was standing beside him. She looked at Chen Qi with a subtle expression and said in a rather strange tone:
"This face...why do I feel like I've seen it somewhere before? Have we run into each other before?"
Shi Huaiya also found it quite strange. She dared to say that she had no memory of ever greeting someone with a face like Chen Qi, but for some reason, she did not feel that Chen Qi's face was unfamiliar. Instead, she had a sense of déjà vu.
There seemed to be some vague memory in her mind, but it seemed... very different from the face in her memory.
Is it a classmate in the academy? Shi Huaiya couldn't help but have such a thought in her mind. If she said that she had seen him occasionally in the academy, then Shi Huaiya could understand it, but... she actually knew that the possibility of this statement was still quite low.
Xing Xiong, who was standing by, was also shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Shi Huaiya with a little surprise.
It turns out that she wasn't the only one, even Shi Huaiya found him familiar?
Sure enough, it was a lie to say that he had been to the police station. Because of the relationship between Lao Chen and Shi Huaiya, Xingxiong had never carried out the same mission with Shi Huaiya, let alone seen the same prisoner together.
So, what exactly is this familiar feeling?
However, Shi Huaiya's words made Lao Wei and Wen Yue nod in unison. At this moment, their eyes became even more curious, and they stared at Chen Qi and Chen.
They knew that these two people were the real highlights of this event!
I was careless... Kal'tsit bit her lower lip. She finally understood why Wei Yanwu came to the negotiation site in this way.
He has spies in Rhodes Island, and he may already know Chen Qi's identity!
Although it has not been completely settled yet, Wei Yanwu has definitely smelled something different!
Miscalculated. Kal'tsit also had guessed that there must be some special relationship between Chen Qi and this Officer Chen from Longmen, but although all this was just guesswork, it was already close to the truth.
Now, Wei Yanwu moved Chen here with the purpose of breaking through Chen Qi's psychological defenses and taking the opportunity to pry the secret of the truth about Chen Qi's identity from the mouths of those in Rhodes Island.
If that's the case...Lungmen is truly holding the lifeline of Rhodes Island!
However, under the expectant eyes of Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue, under the slightly uneasy gaze of Amiya, and under the puzzled and somewhat expectant gazes of Chen, Shi Huaiya and Xingxiong, Chen Qi's expression was beyond everyone's expectations.
——He did nothing.
It was literally that. All of Chen Qi's expressions were the same as always, extremely indifferent, and there seemed to be no fluctuations. His eyes stared at Chen, as if he was looking at a stranger, with indifference, without a trace of familiarity or closeness.
It was this indifferent look that overturned everyone's speculations and expectations.
"——Nice to meet you, Officer Chen, Officer Shi Huaiya." Chen Qi exhaled and said to the two women in front of him in a very calm tone:
"My name is Chen Qi, and this is Skadi. We are both operators affiliated with Rhodes Island. This time we are serving as the guards of Dr. Kal'tsit and our leader Amiya."
“…Is this really our first meeting?”
However, at this moment, Chen murmured very softly, his voice was so soft that she could hardly believe it was his own voice.
For some reason, Chen felt very calm at this moment. However, when she looked at the face in front of her, she felt a pang of heartache.
In Chen's mind, a voice kept echoing.
It shouldn't be like this.
He... shouldn't have reacted like this.
Why...he has no emotion at all.
Such voices seemed to be questioning the person in front of them, but Chen knew that these voices were actually questioning herself.
Why did he become like this?
Chen didn't know because Chen had never seen him.
But...she just had a vague feeling that this shouldn't be the case.
"Uh-huh!"
Suddenly, there was a violent swelling pain in her brain! A burst of fragmented memories once again flooded into her brain, madly stimulating her nerves. Even someone like Chen, who would not make a sound when injured, found it unbearable.
Countless fragmented memories suddenly began to piece together, stimulating Chen's nerves, and scenes of memories began to flood out.
"Lao Chen! Take him away!" A familiar yet somewhat unclear female voice began to sound slowly. However, the anxiety in the female voice could not conceal the sound of the burning fire.
"Powdered Dragon! I'll hold on here! I'll send someone to escort you away!" There was another voice in the shadow. This voice was still familiar, but still had a hazy feeling that made her unable to distinguish.
"You are no longer the senior superintendent of Longmen! There is no need for you to work hard for Longmen anymore!"
"The Dragon Gate is about to be destroyed! It's useless for you to push it up! Go!"
The sky was filled with fire and explosions one after another, burning everything familiar in front of her...
“——Ugh!”
"Old Chen?" Xingxiong noticed Chen's painful expression and immediately stepped forward to support her. With the help of his height, Xingxiong could see Chen's face.
It was a bit scary, everything was pale, and Chen's pretty face was covered with cold sweat. She was gasping for breath in pain, like a person who had just been pulled out of the water.
"Fenchanglong, are you okay?" Shi Huaiya, who was standing by, could see that something was wrong with Chen. He was fine just now, but why did he suddenly look like he had eaten a large piece of mustard? Why did he look so bad?
"…It's okay. It's been like this for the past few days. Maybe I really want to rest."
However, Chen was so strong that she would not fall down because of this little pain. She waved her hand and broke free from Xingxiong's support, standing up just like usual.
"...I'm sorry, I've been a little overtired lately. Don't worry about me." Chen's voice quickly returned to its usual seriousness and calmness. This time, when she looked at Chen Qi, there was no longer any wavering gaze.
"Although I am the one who sent the invitation this time in my capacity as the Dragon Gate Guards, strictly speaking, the nature of the invitation has changed with the arrival of Chief Wei. Therefore, we at the Dragon Gate Guards hope that Rhodes Island can trust us with the security work."
"Two Rhodes Island operators, Chen Qi and Ms. Skadi, right? Please leave the meeting room temporarily. You may not be suitable to listen to the following content."
"——Of course, Xingxiong will accompany you. She will arrange your next trip."
Chen's attitude was still so meticulous, without any trace of weakness. She seemed to be the same as usual, still the most trusted police officer Chen in Longmen.
However, Chen Qi and Skadi exchanged glances after hearing this and looked at Kal'tsit and Amiya.
"...Follow him first, there is no need to worry about our safety." Kal'tsit was relieved in a sense. Chen Qi controlled himself very well and there was not a single flaw.
In this way, at least he could delay the matter and make Wei Yanwu a little suspicious of his guess.
"Yeah." Chen Qi nodded, then turned his gaze to Xing Xiong, who had a somewhat subtle expression on his face, and said:
"Well, Officer Xingxiong, thank you for your help."
"…It's just a small matter."
Xingxiong agreed, opened the door of the conference room, and walked out first. Chen Qi and Skadi also walked slowly towards the door one after another.
The two figures passed by Chen Qi. Chen Qi never looked back at Chen Qi from beginning to end. Even when they passed by, his eyes were always focused forward without any deviation.
