Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 968 - 279: Movements of All Sides (Part 3)

"He was able to control himself at that Zuo Jing Space Station before, so he must be aware of the onset of Violent Syndrome. It’s impossible that he’d still go to a colony when he’s close to a violent episode."

"There’s something wrong here."

"Whose problem is it then?"

"Although the problem lies with An Wuping, I don’t think he’s the source of the issue. Let’s keep going; we need more clues."

Li Weiqi shook his head and said, "That’s all there is. After An Wuping’s expression changed, he went straight back to the spaceship, didn’t even get the deposit refunded, and left directly to here, where we are now."

"From the timing given by the Beinu Government, it’s as if he sprinted all the way here, with a clear purpose, and started the massacre the moment he arrived."

Liang Fei pondered along with Li Weiqi’s words.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "Oh, I can add one more piece of information."

"The Beinu Government didn’t give any reason why An Wuping would destroy the Space Station in passing. They only said they were still investigating."

"The Space Station’s database was reduced to ashes, with only a little evidence related to An Wuping left."

"But the destruction of the Space Station is obviously completely different from An Wuping’s previous style, and since we’re already suspecting Zuo Jing of infiltrating the Beinu Government, we might as well be bold in our assumptions."

"That is, Zuo Jing was inducing An Wuping’s Violent Syndrome to erupt."

"Isn’t there a recent rumor? Zuo Jing has someone with a long-range brainwashing ability, which is a great threat to ordinary people. Although it doesn’t seem effective against Psychics, interfering with the mind of a Psychic suffering from Violent Syndrome should be relatively easy."

"Could it be that An Wuping really chose a Zuo Jing Space Station, intending to wipe out Zuo Jing completely like last time, leaving only ordinary people?"

"But this time, An Wuping’s Violent Syndrome outbreak wasn’t a slow accumulation; it was a symptom actively induced by Zuo Jing’s Psychic."

"Therefore, Zuo Jing could predict in advance and prepared corresponding methods at several Zuo Jing-related outposts where An Wuping might go."

"When An Wuping was massacring Zuo Jing members, they actively came out to destroy the entire Space Station and even got the Beinu Government to help cover up, thoroughly tarnishing An Wuping’s name?"

Liang Fei’s series of analyses also made Li Weiqi unable to help but consider the rationality of it all.

And when it coincides with the facts, the rationality is naturally top-notch.

Liang Fei didn’t wait for Li Weiqi to give his thoughts, suddenly thought of something again, and said, "Wait, wouldn’t he, like last time, have contacted the local Anti-Cult Bureau as well? Go check that out, quietly, don’t let anyone notice."

Li Weiqi promptly followed the order, lowered his head, and issued orders to his subordinates on the terminal.

"Now that the other issues are basically resolved, I also believe that someone like An Wuping wouldn’t commit massacre; An Wuping is definitely a good person."

"But there’s still one problem. What’s the relationship between An Wuping and Zuo Jing?"

Although all sorts of evidence could point to An Wuping not conducting a massacre, Liang Fei still too calmly brought up this question: "You saw the photo, he was talking with Zuo Jing’s Psychic. Leaving with Zuo Jing’s Psychic should also be a done deal."

"Why would he go with Zuo Jing? He and Zuo Jing... ultimately..."

Li Weiqi lifted his head and said, "There has to be an underlying reason, there definitely is, maybe Beinu is also fanning the flames."

Liang Fei still didn’t want to directly label an entire Star Realm with Zuo Jing’s name, merely gave a vague acknowledgment.

He then picked up the terminal to contact an informant in the local Star Realm.

A few minutes later.

Li Weiqi finally received a call from his subordinates.

"Confirmed, just over an hour before An Wuping called us, the Beinu Star Realm’s Anti-Cult Bureau had a record of a call from an unknown communication code."

Liang Fei also ended his call at this moment and said, "But the Beinu Anti-Cult Bureau over there claims they never received any unknown calls. They even cooperatively gave me a copy of the communication record."

"A superfluous disguise."

"Hmm, there’s nothing more to say, Beinu Star Realm has issues."

"But even if Beinu Star Realm has issues, we can’t just say it outright; we have to leave it to higher-ups to arrange an investigation."

"This isn’t our task; our focus is still An Wuping."

"This way, the relationship between An Wuping and Zuo Jing can also be explained."

"Most likely, Zuo Jing used the destruction of the Space Station to coerce An Wuping. To avoid being legally pursued by us, he could only temporarily go along with Zuo Jing. We need to find him."

Li Weiqi asked, "He’s already gone with Zuo Jing, and we’ve lost the trail. How do we find him?"

"It’s a simple principle. Let me ask you, what is Zuo Jing doing now?"

"In the Cai Mo Star Realm..."

Li Weiqi reacted the moment he spoke, realizing that the only place Zuo Jing members could go after taking An Wuping away is there.

Zuo Jing is seeking An Wuping at this moment, definitely to turn a powerful Psychic from enemy to friend. Although the methods are somewhat vile, ’turning enemy to friend’ also needs to be in quotes, but at least they’ve managed to achieve part of it.

"But we have nothing to do with Cai Mo, Cai Mo is now relying on the Fifth Legion, Fan Chao, and the Spiritual Ability Association to handle things, and we can’t intervene."
