144 Chapter - Setting A Trap For The Insider
Ye Yao was not planning to go directly to the training ground to find Mo Qiuli.
This was merely the intention she displayed on the surface.
She was about to start her own plan!
Ye Yao slowly stopped, turned her head in another direction, and showed a face full of confusion.
She even deliberately leaked some Spiritual Power to attract someone's attention.
"Suddenly, I have a... bad feeling."
Luo Jianhua's confused voice came over.
"Sister, what's wrong? Did you discover something?"
"In a daze, I seemed to see a very terrible scene."
Ye Yao pretended to be serious.
"The sky seemed to collapse, the earth cracked open, and it felt like the end of the world."
High in the sky.
Lou Wei, who had just amplified his senses, immediately narrowed his eyes.
An invisible pressure weighed down on him.
Although he had observed Ye Yao for a period, what he mostly sensed was her harmless nature.
But Lou Wei had not forgotten the content of the prophecy and her undeniable future.
Just now, Ye Yao said she saw a strange scene.
She even uttered words like "the end of the world."
What exactly caused her to exhibit such an abnormal situation?
What did she sense when she stopped just now?
Lou Wei really wanted to go down and question Ye Yao immediately.
But he could not reveal himself yet.
He could only focus his attention on Luo Jianhua.
Fortunately, Luo Jianhua was also very cooperative.
Her expression instantly became tense.
Ye Yao had not discussed this with her beforehand.
Luo Jianhua truly thought this was a sign of an impending bad outcome.
"Sister, d-don't joke. Why would you suddenly see a scene like that?
Could it be that you watched too many movies recently, and those scenes got mixed up?"
Ye Yao maintained the appearance of someone unaware of her own Supernatural Ability potential.
Her face was full of uncertainty.
She merely pointed in one direction.
"Over there, in that direction, something seems to be affecting me..."
Luo Jianhua nodded nervously: "I will contact Ms. Yang right away. This abnormality cannot be ignored. Maybe Sister's Supernatural Ability allows her to clearly perceive danger?"
High in the sky, Lou Wei, upon hearing the keywords, swept his gaze toward the direction Ye Yao pointed.
In that direction were facilities such as the Science Museum, the Library, and the Interrogation Room.
Without hesitation, he first used his Spiritual Power to scan the area.
He memorized all objects and analyzed them one by one.
At first glance, he found no obvious abnormality.
Only the S-Class Esper inside the Interrogation Room was systematically clearing people of suspicion.
Intuition told Lou Wei that the abnormality Ye Yao sensed might originate from inside the Interrogation Room.
Ms. Yang, having received the message, rushed over at extreme speed.
With a serious expression, she placed both hands on Ye Yao's shoulders.
"Where is it? Take me there."
"Mhm."
Ye Yao obediently nodded and then led the way.
Internally, she was already wearing a super wicked smile.
Hehe!
Plan success!
At the same time.
Inside the Interrogation Room.
Cheng Muxue, who had rushed from another city upon receiving the mission, was currently identifying the mole.
To find anomalies more accurately, she simply conducted one-on-one interrogations.
"Repeat after me: I have not harmed the interests of the Countermeasure Bureau, nor have I committed any disloyal acts. I am completely unrelated to the Shelter faction, and I do not collude with any other forces..."
Cheng Muxue had already connected to the minds of the suspicious personnel.
Using her Supernatural Ability, she tightly linked the person's Spiritual Power with their thoughts, emotions, and consciousness.
Then, by influencing them with her Supernatural Ability, she forcibly dismantled the person's psychological defenses.
Even the words repeated aloud, their content would be transmitted deep into the soul.
If there was even a hint of falsehood, it would cause intense emotional fluctuations and other factors.
Cheng Muxue could receive the corresponding signals through her mental network.
To prevent the mole from speaking half-truths.
She had directly pre-set a flawless confession script.
A single error was enough to lock onto the target.
Cheng Muxue had caught many suspicious individuals attempting to slip through using this method.
However, she had been interrogating since early morning until now.
Cheng Muxue had examined almost all suspicious personnel.
The result was that she found no trace of the Shelter.
"That's enough. Return to the Interrogation Room to await the final result. We will compensate you for the losses incurred during this period."
Cheng Muxue deactivated her Supernatural Ability and had the guards take the person away.
She, meanwhile, stayed in the Interrogation Room, sighing.
"Are the people from the Shelter not among these individuals? Or do they have a way to resist my detection?"
Cheng Muxue had been full of confidence before coming here.
After all, finding moles was her area of expertise.
But after this round, her spirits flagged again.
"It was the same last time... I sensed the presence of a ghost near little Ye Yao, but it was gone when I returned.
Now I have no results searching for the Shelter's mole. Am I really the most useless S-Class Esper?"
Cheng Muxue was young after all, lacking the composure of other veteran S-Class Espers.
She thought she could quickly pinpoint the target, but she gained nothing.
This dealt her a blow.
Of course, she still had one final method.
That was memory reading.
However, it would cause irreversible ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) damage to the person.
This method was usually only used on criminals who were already confirmed guilty.
"I might as well find a chance to visit Ye Yao after this mission.
I'll just treat it as an occasional visit... and check if there are any abnormalities in the mental network.
If there are... then I can only report it truthfully."
At this moment, Cheng Muxue's phone suddenly rang.
Cheng Muxue looked and saw it was a call from Lou Wei.
Lou Wei: "Ye Yao has come to the base and is heading toward the Interrogation Room. You need to avoid her."
Cheng Muxue shot up as if recovering from a mortal illness.
"What! Why is she coming over?"
Lou Wei: "Something there caused Ye Yao to see scenes of the end of the world."
Cheng Muxue: "???"
What?
There really is something dirty there!
The key thing is that she didn't even notice it!
A feeling of humiliation instantly arose in Cheng Muxue's heart.
The anomaly related to sequence 001 could not be treated as unknown.
If what Ye Yao said was true.
Then, the Interrogation Room might contain the catalyst capable of leading to the destruction of the world.
Coupled with the recent actions of the Shelter.
It could be concluded that the Shelter's mole was still lurking among those former colleagues!
What method did they use to evade detection?
If they could fool even an S-Class Esper.
Did other Countermeasure Bureau bases also have such presences?
The more Cheng Muxue thought about it, the more terrified she felt.
"I understand. Once Ye Yao identifies the suspicious person, I will search their memory. I absolutely won't let the mole slip away."
Since it concerned the destruction of the world, sufficient proof was no longer necessary.
Since sequence 001 reacted, the person capable of influencing her must be rooted out.
To prevent the button for world destruction from falling into enemy hands!
Cheng Muxue hung up the phone.
Her gaze became extremely sharp.
"Little Ye Yao... if you can help your Aunt root out the mole this time, I will definitely grant you any request next time..."
Cheng Muxue murmured to herself, got up, and looked for a place to avoid Ye Yao.
She certainly couldn't let Ye Yao see her Aunt appearing in this kind of place.
On the other side.
"It's probably inside."
Ye Yao led Ms. Yang step by step into the interrogation facility.
Trailing silently a dozen meters behind was a cold-faced man with restrained aura.
No one could perceive his existence.
Like a massive ghost ship, he silently crushed his way into the interrogation facility.
As if ready to take away a lucky person at any moment.
