Chapter 552: Solid Evidence

Song Jinbo gave off a vivid description, and Meng Chao felt cold sweat break on his skin.

“Bullet Xue Rui’s cries shocked Rattlesnake Xiang Wei.
He wanted to stop you, but it was already too late.
Besides, his arm was a bloody mess, so it was impossible for him to fight you,” Song Jinbo continued.
“He could only endure it and hide in the ruins.
He did not even dare to breathe loudly.
It was only when you dragged Xue Rui’s mangled corpse into the distance that he dared to climb out.

“Fortunately, he got lucky.
He ran out of Leprosy Village without meeting any danger and got to spread this shocking news to all the guys so that we could be on guard against you, you two-faced bastard!”

“…” Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and calmed his chaotic thoughts.
“This is just Xiang Wei’s word; no third person saw this.
He could even say that I cut Xue Rui into pieces and ate him.

“Meanwhile, I can say that Rattlesnake Xiang Wei is the abnormal beast’s puppet and intentionally framed a good person.
How are you going to tell whether what I said is real or not?

“Song Jinbo, this concerns the future of the lair and even Dragon City.
You can’t just trust Xiang Wei unconditionally because he’s a member of the lair like you, right?”

“We’re not that dumb.
We’d naturally not trust the words of a single person.” Song Jinbo sneered at him.
“What if aside from Rattlesnake Xiang Wei, we also have Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong testifying against you?”

This time, Meng Chao was really astonished.
He cried out in surprise, “What?!”

“Let’s say that Xiang Wei might want to frame you because he’s a member of the lair, but Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong is a veteran hunter from the outside world and the leader of the entire hunting squad.
He does not share any economic interest relationships with us.
Instead, he’s your temporary commander, so we should be able to believe his words, right?” Song Jinbo said coldly.

Meng Chao could not believe it.
“Did Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong see me kill Bullet Xue Rui?”

“He didn’t.
Zhou Chong was also heavily injured by the explosion.
He lost an arm and a leg, so he practically had no mobility and could only hide in the depths of the ruins to heal his wounds.

“While he was healing himself, he saw you whispering to Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang.

“Zhou Chong said that you fought against Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang in the beginning, but after the explosion, you two were whispering to each other as if you were scheming something.
Then, both of you cackled together and split up.

“How are you going to explain this? Are you going to tell me that Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and Rattlesnake Xiang Wei’s eyes were playing tricks on them at the time?”

Meng Chao’s eyelids twitched.

His mind was in a mess.

After the explosion, he had run into Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang, but he had personally killed that heinous criminal who had committed many crimes.

So, how could he possibly have been whispering with Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang and plotting something?

Unfortunately, Bloody Slaughter Gao Yang’s corpse was destroyed under the burning ruins.
Perhaps even his ashes had scattered in the wind.

No matter what, Meng Chao could not explain things now.

“Let’s say that Rattlesnake Xiang Wei and Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong were both imagining things, then what about Snake Eye Mo Lan?” Song Jinbo continued.
“Did you actually think that you killed Mo Lan? She practices a really unique secret technique that allows her to move her organs at will.
Even if you pierced her chest, you didn’t pierce her heart.
It was difficult, but she managed to escape from Leprosy Village alive, and that’s enough proof for your crimes!”

Snake Eye Mo Lan was also a veteran hunter in the hunter circle.
She had fought against Meng Chao during the adaptive training and also went missing during the explosion.

“Even Mo Lan was attacked by ‘me’?” Meng Chao was in absolute disbelief.

“If not you, who else?” Song Jinbo retorted.
“Snake Eye Mo Lan said that you used the same method as you when you killed Bullet Xue Rui.
You pretended to be squashed under debris and cried out for help, attracting the veteran hunters and powerful fighters from the gangs nearby to help you.
Then, you killed them one after another.

“In the beginning, Mo Lan had fallen for it and wanted to save you from the ruins, but she has really sharp senses.
At a critical moment, she sensed a faint killing intent from you and dodged your fatal strike in time.

“Later, you chased after her through the ruins and hit her vitals a few times.
Fortunately, she practices Organ Shift; otherwise, she would have suffered an untimely death.

“In the end, she decided to take a risk.
She pretended to be stabbed in the heart and gathered her last bits of spirit energy to blast the pillars in the ruins around her so that the reinforced concrete above you would collapse.
She used tons of debris to separate herself from you.

“You thought that she was definitely dead and were in a hurry to kill the other people, so she managed to escape alive.

“So? Rattlesnake Xiang Wei, Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong, and Snake Eye Mo Lan saw you.
One of them is a gang member, while the other two are veteran hunters.
They have no grudges with you, so there’s no way they’d want to frame you out of the blue, right?”

It was only at that moment Meng Chao understood why Rattlesnake Xiang Wei looked so angry when he saw him, as if Meng Chao had killed his father.

His mind raced, and he instantly figured out the Vortex’s plan.

“Did you think of another possibility?” Meng Chao said cautiously.
“The person Xiang Wei, Zhou Chong, and Mo Lan saw wasn’t me but someone pretending to be me? Right now, there is plenty of advanced tech that allow people to take on various disguises that are indistinguishable from the original.”

“Of course we thought of that possibility,” Song Jinbo said.
“But while you can imitate a person’s face, it’s very difficult to imitate a person’s fighting style and fluctuations of their spirit energy magnetic field.

“Snake Eye Mo Lan said that before she entered the lair, she fought against you in adaptive training and got a deep impression of your fighting style.
She was 90% sure that the one who tried to lure her in to kill her in the ruins was you!”

“It’s not as if you can’t imitate fighting styles either…” Meng Chao tried his hardest to defend himself.

A mocking look appeared on Song Jinbo’s face.
“Then, what about fingerprints, hair fibers, and blood samples?

“You left behind a lot of traces while you were fighting against Snake Eye Mo Lan.
When we checked, we retrieved your fingerprints and blood from her weapon.
We even found your hair fibers under her fingernails.

“Enough with it, Meng Chao.
We have concrete proof.
No matter how you try to defend yourself, it’s impossible for anyone to believe you anymore!”

The temperature in the shelter instantly fell by dozens of degrees Celsius.

Meng Chao felt that he had stepped into a bottomless abyss filled with ice.
A cold chill spread from his heels to his throat.

When superhumans drank gene medicine and high-calorie nutritional fluid as well as used medical cabins, they paid attention to the details.

They usually had to make micro adjustments to the gene medicine based on their cultivation realm, blood type, and personal characteristics.
They also had to change the pulse frequency of the medical cabin’s spirit energy magnetic field so that they could provide the perfect effects for treatment.

Hence, superhumans were used to writing their physiological parameters into a medical card and handing it over to medical officers when they carried out missions so that they could be prepared for accidents.

This time, the gangs provided logistics support.

Since the mission was pretty dangerous, the gangs had prepared the best medical facilities in advance.

Meng Chao and the other veteran hunters had provided their physiological parameters, the gene medicine they were used to using, and other information to the medical officers.

With this, the gangs were able to compare his fingerprints, blood samples, and hair fibers right away.
It helped them find the “culprit”.

“I get it now.” Meng Chao was silent for a while before he sighed.
“You think that I’ve been lured over by the abnormal beast and betrayed Dragon City?”

It was no wonder why the commander across the river bank ignored him and why so many gangs attacked him so madly when he crossed the river of trash.

“Isn’t that the case?” Song Jinbo sneered.
“You just mentioned that right now, disguise technology is very advanced, and anyone who spends a little effort and has a bit more skills could pretend to be you.
That’s true.

“But the more advanced the technology is, the more time is needed to refine it.

“There’s no way anyone can finish putting on a disguise to the point that Xiang Wei, Zhou Chong, and Mo Lan can’t tell that you’re fake and prepare your fingerprints, blood sample, and hair samples in just a few hours.

“While Xiang Wei can’t be considered your teammate, Zhou Chong and Mo Lan are your teammates.
One of them even fought against you before, so they’re quite familiar with you.

“But based on what Zhou Chong and Mo Lan said, you only joined the hunting squad spontaneously last night.
Before that, no one knew that you would enter the lair!

“So? Could it be that someone managed to predict the future, and before you joined the hunting squad, they decided to pretend to be you just so they could frame you?”

Meng Chao could not say anything to that.

“There’s also something that’s really strange,” Song Jinbo said.
“Based on what Zhou Chong and Mo Lan said, the mission was complicated and dangerous.
They had to fight fiercely in the lair.
Forget about whether they could kill the monsters and robbers for the time being.
Even if they really managed to kill their targets, once they injured or killed a large number of innocent citizens, the public backlash would be enough to rip all the members in the squad to shreds.

“They’re permanent employees of various insurance companies and enjoy great benefits and annual wages.
They also received a large allowance for this operation, which is why they were willing to defuse this bomb for the secret police and the abnormal beast research department as well as be their scapegoat.

“But what about you?

“This matter clearly has nothing to do with you.
As the youngest Heaven Realm superhuman in Dragon City, you have a bright future ahead of you.
There’s no reason for you to look for trouble or march to your own death.

“If you wanted to play hero, you could have joined the pitched battle at the border of Dragon City and killed monsters in a glorious manner so that you could shine brightly.
Isn’t this what superhumans your wish to do?

“So why did you run here for no reason? You even joined Zhou Chong and the others to jump into the bottomless swamp in the lair.”

“Because I’m a virtuous and warm-hearted person.
I don’t care about personal gains and only care about doing things that will benefit others.
I have no interest in playing the hero and being in the limelight.
I only want to contribute to Dragon City’s future in the most dangerous and complicated battlefields!” Meng Chao said grimly.
