I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 105 - Fleeing for fear of crime


A group of soldiers gathered around Zhao Nuo's corpse. Zhao Nuo's eyes were wide open, staring at the sky, filled with unwillingness. His shirt on his chest had burst open, clearly revealing a huge bloody palm print.Deputy Captain Zhao died because of power issues, killed by Battalion Commander Qin. The soldiers stood stunned, the sharp, angry voice echoing in their minds."Qin Tian, I have no grievance with you, yet you want to kill me just to seize power!!!"Yes, after Battalion Commander Qin arrived, Captain Zhao still handled the major and minor affairs of the army. The three Spiritual Energy Users, Ye Zhongyi, Shi Liucheng, and Tu Changsong, were also not entirely convinced by Battalion Commander Qin.As the top leader, Battalion Commander Qin must have been very dissatisfied with this. In a fit of anger, he killed Captain Zhao.Harming comrades is definitely a capital offense in the military.Can power truly make people lose their minds?A figure suddenly appeared next to Zhao Nuo's body. Everyone looked closely and saw it was the murderer, Battalion Commander Qin.In an instant, all the soldiers retreated as if avoiding a plague, their eyes complex, filled with anger, confusion, and fear.Qin Tian squatted down to examine Zhao Nuo's injuries.Zhao Nuo's blow to his own chest wasn't severe enough to be the cause of death. For him to die so quickly, there must be another reason."Stop!!!"Just then, an angry roar came from the side.Ye Zhongyi, Shi Liucheng, and Tu Changsong, the three Spiritual Energy Users, ran over angrily, their eyes fixed on Qin Tian."Qin Tian, you heartless scoundrel."Tu Changsong glared at Qin Tian like a fierce villain, saying bitterly:"Captain Zhao treated you so sincerely and was willing to hand over military power to you. It was because you were unfamiliar with military affairs that he took responsibility for you.""And now, in order to regain military power, you actually killed Old Zhao.""Captain Zhao must have been blind to have always trusted you."Qin Tian looked directly at Tu Changsong, his gaze deep.Zhao Nuo was a dead man. Tu Changsong, who had always been inseparable from Zhao Nuo, is also highly suspicious and could be a pawn of the mastermind.After Zhao Nuo's suicide, he was undoubtedly the prime suspect. Zhao Nuo's death would definitely be reported to the military headquarters immediately, and the military headquarters' investigation team would arrive in Mist Town in the shortest possible time.By then, he would definitely be detained.After being detained, he would naturally be at the mercy of others.Qin Tian believed that the person behind this had planned for so long, first transferring him to Mist Town and then having Zhao Nuo commit suicide. He would definitely not let him off easily, but rather wanted to get something from him.As it seems now, the greatest possibility is that piece of amber."No, I can't stay here."Qin Tian thought to himself, if he stayed put, it would be exactly what Zhao Nuo wanted. Now that Yan Qing was not here, Zhang Meng, a mere vice principal, couldn't protect him at all.Run, he must run. Even if it meant becoming a wanted criminal, he couldn't fall into the trap."Zhao Nuo wasn't killed by me, he committed suicide. I will explain to my superiors."Qin Tian said calmly, then turned to walk towards the office.Snap!Tu Changsong took a step sideways, blocking Qin Tian's path, and said through clenched teeth:"Do you think you can bury this matter just because you have a strong background? Let me tell you, dream on!""I will inform my superiors and make sure you, this villain who harmed your comrades, are severely punished. You are not going anywhere today, just stay here honestly."Snap, snap. Ye Zhongyi and Shi Liucheng immediately moved their feet, and the three of them surrounded Qin Tian."With us here, don't even think about running!" Ye Zhongyi said in a deep voice.The three Spiritual Energy Users took the lead, and in an instant, more and more soldiers surrounded them, forming human walls, trapping Qin Tian in the center so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass."A life for a life!"Shi Liucheng raised his arm and shouted."A life for a life!""A life for a life!"The soldiers shouted in unison, their angry condemnation like a {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} tsunami, wave after wave, sweeping towards Qin Tian.However, Qin Tian's figure remained tall and straight, his gaze calm and firm, like an ancient, indestructible reef, standing still despite the waves crashing against it."A life --- for a life!"Tu Changsong stared at Qin Tian. Immediately after, he moved his feet and charged forward quickly, his fists igniting with flames, like two fireballs, blasting towards Qin Tian's face."Qin Tian, die for me!"The furious and violent roar echoed throughout the camp.The heat wave rushed towards him. Qin Tian's eyes narrowed. Immediately after, he shot out a side kick like lightning, hitting Tu Changsong squarely in the chest.Crackling electric light exploded beneath his feet. Tu Changsong's fist was only halfway out when his body was sent flying high diagonally upwards like a soccer ball kicked with great force, then crashed heavily into the crowd.*Puff!*Tu Changsong spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with shock and horror.What fast feet, what terrifying strength. Was he really just a Rank 2 One-Star Spiritual Energy User?In an instant, the scene suddenly fell silent.No one expected that Qin Tian would kick Tu Changsong, the strongest of the three Spiritual Energy Users, flying and spitting blood with just one kick. Who in 137 Camp could stop such a powerful person?Qin Tian turned to look at Ye Zhongyi and Shi Liucheng. As his gaze fell upon them, their bodies instantly stiffened, their hearts felt as if they were being squeezed, and they almost couldn't breathe.Qin Tian withdrew his gaze, not planning to attack the two of them.After looking around, he tapped his foot, like a light bird, leaping over layers of human walls and disappearing from everyone's sight.Did Battalion Commander Qin run away?The soldiers stood dumbfounded, then realized a problem.Battalion Commander Qin ran away, isn't that fleeing out of fear of guilt? Sure enough, he killed Deputy Captain Zhao, he is the murderer!Shi Liucheng rushed into the General Affairs Office and called his superiors using the dedicated line, reporting what had happened in 137 Camp.After hearing the account, the superior department exploded. Battalion Commander Qin of 137 Camp had actually brutally killed his deputy, Zhao Nuo, due to a power struggle, and then fled out of fear of guilt. The superior leaders were furious and immediately dispatched an investigation team to Mist Town to investigate the truth and arrest Qin Tian.Half an hour later, the investigation team arrived at 137 Camp.There were a total of three people in the investigation team, two men and one woman.The leader was a middle-aged man with a square face, his eyes deep and sharp, as if he could see through everything. His temples were slightly frosted, and he exuded an aura of authority.The other man had dark skin and a burly, sturdy physique, like a towering mountain peak, giving a sense of indestructible power.The last person was a woman who looked to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She had neat, short hair that was clean and refreshing. Her fitted military uniform perfectly outlined her figure, and her shoulder insignia showed her rank as Lieutenant Colonel."Commander Chen, I am Tu Changsong of the 137 Camp Special Forces."Tu Changsong walked up to the three of them, saluted, and then said with red-rimmed eyes:"Please, Commanders, seek justice for our Captain Zhao and severely punish the murderer, Qin Tian."Chen Guofeng's face was serious. He returned the salute and said in a deep voice:"Rest assured, the Empire will surely kill those who harm their comrades!"
