At Xiongying Military Academy, Zhang Meng’s smart watch vibrated. He glanced at it, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.“Hello, Han Principal.”Zhang Meng’s tone was cold and distant. Ever since their big argument, his relationship with Han Feng had been very strained; they usually ignored each other when they met. He hadn't expected Han Feng to contact him proactively today.“Zhang Principal.”Han Feng’s calm voice came through, “Your student, Qin Tian, is now wanted by the military for harming a comrade.”What!!!Zhang Meng’s eyes widened, and he blurted out:“Impossible!”He hadn't interacted much with Qin Tian, but he knew the clone soldier student’s character.Calm, cautious, focused—such a person couldn't possibly harm a comrade.Moreover, Qin Tian had just reported the situation in Mist Town to him, and less than half a day later, he was in trouble, having committed such a heinous crime.Zhang Meng found it hard not to suspect that this was a conspiracy targeting Qin Tian.No, it was more likely a plot using Qin Tian as an excuse to target Yan Qing.“Zhang Principal, Qin Tian is a student of Xiongying Military Academy. Logically, if he commits a crime, the academy should expel him directly.”Han Feng said calmly, “However, this student has a special status. Before a formal judgment is made, I can temporarily keep his student status for him.”A warrant only meant Qin Tian was a suspect; his status as a criminal could only be confirmed after a military court ruling.Zhang Meng hadn't expected Han Feng to give Qin Tian a break. He was silent for a moment before saying:“Han Principal, I thank you on behalf of Qin Tian.”“No need, I’m just doing my job, and I also don’t believe that student would impulsively kill someone. Also, the arrest warrant was personally approved by Xiahou Yang. It’s useless to seek help from anyone else. The only one who can help him now is Yan Qing.”The call ended. Zhang Meng was stunned for a moment, a complex look appearing in his eyes.Xiahou Yang was the Deputy Commander of the Silver Gray Star Military Department. His personal approval of the arrest warrant meant there was no room for maneuver in this matter. Han Feng wanted to warn him not to try to find someone to exonerate Qin Tian. He had been out of the military for many years, and his connections weren't deep. If he found someone unreliable, it might instead lead Qin Tian into a trap.Although he and Han Feng didn't get along, he owed Han Feng a favor regarding Qin Tian’s situation.137th Battalion. “Boss, come here, I found something interesting.”Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand, and Chen Guofeng and Shi Lei walked over, staring at the surveillance screen.“This is last night’s surveillance video.”Lin Xiaoyue dragged the progress bar and said, “Look, last night’s fog was much thicker than it is now, making it almost impossible to see anything, but the dormitory building was still relatively clear.”“We can see that only Qin Tian left the dormitory last night; no one else exited their dormitory door.”“Now look at this.”Lin Xiaoyue switched perspectives. “This is the guard post. There are ten soldiers on duty. When the heavy fog came, they—”Bang! Lin Xiaoyue pressed the pause button. “They all fainted.”Under the thick fog, the faces of the guards were unclear, only vague outlines could be seen. However, whether a person was standing upright or lying on the ground was still very easy to distinguish.All fainted? Chen Guofeng and Shi Lei frowned. Immediately after, they saw Qin Tian arrive at the guard post, check the soldiers’ conditions, and then disappear into the mist.“Don’t you think this is very interesting?”Lin Xiaoyue’s tone rose, her eyes showing an intrigued expression. “A heavy fog causes everyone in the entire military camp to fall unconscious, and only one person is awake. This person then murders his deputy battalion commander, the reason being a failed power struggle.”“Boss, I always feel there’s something else hidden behind this matter.”“That’s not our concern.”Chen Guofeng said in a deep voice, “The arrest warrant has been approved. Our main mission from the superiors is to apprehend Qin Tian. As for whether there’s a hidden truth behind this, we’ll discuss that after we catch Qin Tian and interrogate him.”Lin Xiaoyue shrugged, “Alright, I was just saying. But if we had really caught Qin Tian this morning, we wouldn’t °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° have discovered this.”“Since we can’t find Qin Tian anyway, why not start from this point? Maybe we can make a breakthrough.”Chen Guofeng considered for a moment, then nodded:“Okay, you investigate it first.”They were an investigation team, and apprehending Qin Tian was naturally the top priority. But since there was no lead on catching Qin Tian, they could start with the fog and try that direction.Ding ding ding. Just then, there was a knock on the monitoring room door. “Come in.”Tu Changsong walked in, smiling as he said:“Three officers, dinner will be ready soon. Would you like to go to the small cafeteria, or shall I treat you to a meal in town?”“We’ll eat in the cafeteria,” Chen Guofeng said.“Alright, then we’ve prepared a few good dishes, including Mist Town’s specialty rice wine. You gentlemen can come and try it,” Tu Changsong said with a smile.“Okay.”Outside Mist Town. Poof! A small mound of earth bulged on the ground. Immediately after, a figure emerged from underground, yet he wasn't covered in much dirt.“Sand Control, this talent is quite useful.”Qin Tian stomped his foot, and the mound below immediately returned to its original state.Night Demon Wings allowed him to fly, and Sand Control allowed him to go underground. Going underground was much more covert than flying, making it very useful for escape.At this moment, the mist had not dissipated, and the entire town was still enveloped in fog. Qin Tian changed his face to an ordinary one, then carefully entered the town, avoiding people and surveillance cameras throughout the process.After entering the town, he deliberately walked through small, narrow alleys without cameras. The fog was hazy, and there weren't many pedestrians on the streets.What should have been a bustling, noisy town filled with tourists taking photos now resembled a ghost town, devoid of any vitality.On a street corner, Qin Tian saw a young man with yellow hair smoking. There were complex tattoo patterns on his exposed forearm; he didn't look like a good person.“Then it’s you.”Qin Tian’s eyes flashed.The events of the past two days made him realize that the entire 137th military camp, and even the residents of Mist Town, were affected by some substance, causing them to fall unconscious when the mist arrived.And this must have been caused by the mastermind who controlled the insect army that night.Therefore, he decided to start from this angle, find a Mist Town resident, understand his physical condition, and thus find the reason for the collective unconsciousness.Whoosh! Like a ghost, he appeared behind the yellow-haired man, knocked him unconscious with a hand chop, then dragged him into a secluded alley to examine his body.Mental power poured out, like an X-ray, scanning every inch of the yellow-haired man’s body from foot to head.There were no problems below the neck. That left only the most complex and dangerous part: the head. Mental power cautiously probed into the yellow-haired man’s mind. The next moment, Qin Tian’s expression changed.It was this kind of thing!
