152 Chapter - Treading On Thin Ice, Treading On Thin Ice
As soon as the meeting began, Lou Wei briefly explained the situation.
Not long after he finished, images of Sequence Zero's travels came from other cities.
The silver-haired girl's appearance was clearly seen by all the veterans.
"It's a resemblance, a very strong resemblance indeed..."
Someone couldn't help but exclaim.
When Lou Wei first suggested that sequence 002 might be sequence 001's older sister,
Most of them were a bit skeptical.
But after seeing sequence 002's true face,
They had no choice but to admit the fact.
Almost everyone assumed they were related by blood.
It must be said this was a shocking revelation.
Someone couldn't help but complain.
"What exactly is the intelligence department doing?
Why didn't they know sequence 001 had an older sister?"
"Don't blame everything on us.
You all know how much effort we've put in."
The Head of the Intelligence Department felt somewhat aggrieved.
They weren't omniscient or omnipotent.
He had already worked his subordinates like oxen and horses.
Given their level of action,
Under normal circumstances, tracing someone's ancestors back eighteen generations would be no problem.
Naturally, they were more efficient than the debt collectors mentioned by netizens.
After all this time,
The Head of the Intelligence Department had gambled his career and still hadn't found Ye Yao's biological parents.
For a time, he even thought she had a similar background to the Stone Monkey.
Just when he finally concluded that Ye Yao had no blood relatives,
He learned at this meeting that the target had an older sister.
Anyway, the chief felt his world had collapsed.
This was simply a blatant criticism of the intelligence department's incompetence!
"Let's not argue about these meaningless things.
The intelligence department's top priority now is to find traces of sequence 002.
Now that she has shown her face, it should make things easier for you."
"Heh, I hope so..."
"Lou Wei, are you sure she showed no signs of disguise?"
Lou Wei, seated in the center of the meeting, nodded.
"Yes, I can sense an aura similar to sequence 001 from her, perhaps a blood connection."
"Hmm, then it seems to be correct."
Everyone trusted Lou Wei's judgment.
If he said there was a {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} connection, then there absolutely was.
"Now let's discuss her behavior patterns.
Since we know her true identity,
We can infer more information from her past operational records."
Now, sequence 002 no longer concealed her true identity.
This time, her collective appearance was not in the form of black mist.
It is likely she will no longer disguise herself in the future.
The turning point for this decision might have come from Lou Wei's accidental discovery.
This caused sequence 002 to abandon her intention of continuing to disguise herself.
Based on her apparent age and the personality simulation over this period,
It might be a self-defeating behavior.
A very young psychological manifestation.
Of course, it could also be intentional on her part.
But none of that matters.
"First, let's look at the first place sequence 002 was discovered."
From the public's perspective, the Flame Demon incident was what brought sequence 002 to prominence.
In that incident, a figure shrouded in black mist emerged and easily killed the Flame Demon.
It was her first exposure to the public eye.
But in reality, it wasn't her first appearance.
Everyone's gaze focused on Lou Wei.
Lou Wei was the first person to come into contact with sequence 002.
"The first time I encountered her was near the residential area.
I originally wondered how she knew about sequence 001.
I suppose she must have been secretly observing her younger sister all along."
Lou Wei began to recall that scene.
Now he could guess her psychological state at the time.
However, many mysteries remained unsolved.
Such as her ghost-like intelligence capabilities.
"Wait, does that mean she was always guarding near the orphanage?
Why didn't she reveal herself? Why didn't she take her out?"
"Who knows? Maybe there's a reason they couldn't acknowledge each other."
Everyone had already thought of a bunch of melodramatic scenarios.
Many bizarre families are inherently melodramatic agglomerations.
No one knew what sequence 002's true intentions were.
"Following this line of thought, sequence 002 watched her younger sister get adopted.
Then she secretly followed to check on the situation, silently infiltrating the heavily guarded residential area?"
Everyone couldn't help but look at Lou Wei.
If that were true, being able to infiltrate the residential area while evading Lou Wei was indeed terrifying.
It seemed unlikely that there was an inside mole in the residential area.
Most likely, no one had infiltrated the Shelter either.
If there truly were people from the Shelter, given Ye Yao's performance today, she would have sensed it long ago.
She would have exposed them in minutes.
Even more efficiently than Cheng Muxue, who was sitting in a certain seat.
Lou Wei, meanwhile, was recalling past events.
There were too many contradictions.
Some things simply didn't add up.
On the surface, it seemed fine.
But in reality, there were still some details that needed deeper investigation.
Lou Wei vaguely remembered that the first time he saw sequence 002, she wasn't that powerful yet.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have struggled so much to deal with his targeting.
She might have used mysterious means to infiltrate the residential area.
And stayed for a considerable amount of time.
Just like that impenetrable black mist.
There would always be things in the world that transcended cognition.
At that time, her main body might have been hidden within the residential area, which is why Sequence 013 was needed to assist in her escape.
After that, there was no more movement.
Presumably, she had completely left the residential area.
To this day, the Countermeasure Bureau still hasn't fully understood the effects of sequence 002's Supernatural Ability.
All unimaginable inferences could be attributed to her Supernatural Ability.
Her almost immortal and indestructible survivability.
And her incredibly exaggerated growth potential.
Coupled with the vast unknown mystery surrounding her to this day.
Some would even believe she was the true sequence 001.
To this day, the true sequence 001 still appeared harmless.
Compared to her sister, it felt like she had lived her life in vain.
But this was actually quite good.
If the child woke up and started eating people,
Then it was better for her to keep sleeping.
It could only be said that sequence 002's exaggerated strength was not without reason.
The moment they thought of her as sequence 001's older sister,
Everyone felt relieved.
It was no longer strange.
And the more they thought about how powerful Ye Yao's sister was,
The more they believed that the true sequence 001 could destroy the world.
Ye Yao herself hadn't proven this.
But her sister had proven it for her with her strength.
"So now there's a serious question to discuss.
If sequence 001 knew she had a biological older sister living out there, what would she think?"
Many people looked troubled.
If this issue wasn't handled well, it could lead to a broken family.
Any small problem, when placed on sequence 001, would become a big problem.
sequence 002's identity was simply too complex.
She didn't seem like the type to "turn over a new leaf" either.
Ye Yao was docile and harmless, but her biological sister was unconventional.
Their personalities were complete opposites.
Once Ye Yao and her sister met, it might lead to uncontrollable reactions.
By now, some even hoped that sequence 002 would continue to travel in disguise.
That way, at least they wouldn't have to face this troublesome issue.
"Since things have come to this, we can only first block information related to sequence 002.
Slow down the spread of information, so that sequence 001 knows as late as possible."
"During this time, Lou Wei and Xiao Jing must try to gauge sequence 001's thoughts.
Absolutely no instability must occur in the current stable situation."
Treading on thin ice, indeed, treading on thin ice.
Every step must be taken with extreme caution.
