#805 - Chapter 805 You, Die First
“I can't reveal that for the time being.” He Jinghui still shook his head.
“I just don't understand. Everyone here is on our side. What can't you reveal?” Baili Ji was very speechless.
Now that the war with the forces of the Inner Earth World has just begun, Dongfang Chen has disappeared.
How awkward can this situation get?
“Lob Nor Base, Elder Qin requests a call.”
A prompt appeared on the screen in front of He Jinghui.
Although Xiao Lin couldn't contact Dongfang Chen either, communication between the bases was normal.
However, this was just a system prompt; Xiao Lin didn't directly serve them.
“Connect,” He Jinghui said.
“Communication connected,” the system prompted.
“Jinghui, what exactly are you guys doing over there?” Elder Qin asked.
“Elder Qin, it's not what we're doing. It's that Dongfang Chen has been controlled,” He Jinghui felt innocent.
“If you didn't stage a mutiny, would Dongfang Chen have been controlled?” Elder Qin didn't listen to his explanation.
“I'm just doing what I should be doing.” He Jinghui didn't think he had done anything wrong.
“I'm not sure what you know, but you must have your own reasons. However, even if your reasons are sufficient, you can't achieve your goals through a mutiny,” Elder Qin's tone became somewhat cold seeing his stubborn attitude.
“Besides a mutiny, I can't think of any other way,” He Jinghui's tone also cooled down.
“Jinghui! Don't be rude!” Baili Ji reprimanded from the side.
No matter what, Elder Qin was everyone's old chief and deserved enough respect.
“If mutinies can become a reasonable way to express opinions, then Hua Country would have long become a heap of loose sand and disappeared in the long river of history.”
“There are some things I may not be clear about, but I know that your actions have pushed Hua Country and the Blue Star Federation into a dangerous situation. If the enemy launches an attack at this time, then we will be defeated without a fight,” Elder Qin lectured him.
“Don't worry, it won't happen,” He Jinghui replied.
“Won't happen? What won't happen?” Elder Qin asked.
“They won't launch an attack,” He Jinghui replied.
“What makes you say that?”
“If they wanted to destroy humanity, they could have done it hundreds of thousands of years ago. Why wait until now?” He Jinghui replied.
“You're not He Jinghui. Who are you?” Elder Qin knew that He Jinghui had changed after hearing his answer.
Elder Qin was their old chief, and he knew what He Jinghui was like before.
“I might as well tell you, I am the representative sent by the Inner Earth World to negotiate with you,” He Jinghui said bluntly.
“What?”
“What?”
The councilors all retreated.
After all this, this guy was the enemy.
Baili Ji felt annoyed, regretting that he had misjudged him and even handed over military power to him.
He could only blame himself for still having some vigilance against Dongfang Chen.
So, after Dongfang Chen disappeared, he naturally chose to believe He Jinghui.
“If that's the case, then everything makes sense. Speak, what do you want to negotiate?” Elder Qin asked.
“It's useless to negotiate with you. You don't have enough authority,” He Jinghui said.
“Then what can we do if we can't contact Speaker Dongfang?” Elder Qin asked.
“If Dongfang Chen dies, then we don't need to negotiate anymore. I will return the military power to you and leave immediately,” He Jinghui replied.
“Why would he die?” Elder Qin frowned.
“You don't need to know,” He Jinghui refused to answer.
“Alright, what if he doesn't die?” Elder Qin asked.
“Either I die, or everyone dies together,” He Jinghui replied.
“Why is that?” Elder Qin couldn't understand.
“Because the Dragon Country Mars base project must not succeed,” He Jinghui replied.
Everyone's understanding of the Dragon Country Mars base project was based on Dongfang Chen's description. Hearing this answer, they couldn't understand it at all.
“Why?” Elder Qin asked.
“I'm sorry, I can't answer,” He Jinghui shook his head.
“Don't you think that revealing some secrets might make things easier?” Elder Qin tried to guide him.
“You're right. However, once this matter is made public, things will become extremely complicated. And according to our calculations, all civilizations in the solar system will be wiped out because of it,” He Jinghui explained.
“A secret that can affect all civilizations in the entire solar system? Your words are too exaggerated!” Elder Qin didn't believe it.
“Alright, I won't argue with you. Because our cognitions are not equal, it's useless to say more,” He Jinghui didn't want to talk anymore.
“I want to ask, if you die, will things become easier?” Elder Qin asked.
“Temporarily, yes,” He Jinghui nodded.
“That's easy. You, take the first step and die,” Elder Qin said and hung up the communication.
He Jinghui felt a rush of blood to his head upon hearing these words. He nervously looked around, searching for possible dangers.
