I have a space station

"Sea King, will there be zombies involved in tonight's operation?" Bai Liji asked.

"Yes!" Ling Zhenhai confirmed.

"You can mobilize zombies?" Bai Liji asked.

"I guess you could say I can!" Ling Zhenhai replied.

"You either can or you can't, what do you mean 'guess'?" Bai Liji glared at him.

"I've subdued a few Holy Envoys from the Red Coats; they can mobilize them," Ling Zhenhai explained.

He had already thought of this reason; he wasn't afraid of being questioned or investigated.

"That explains it," Bai Liji understood and nodded.

Zong Zheng Yue also dispelled his doubts upon hearing this answer.

Everything made sense.

"Alright, I understand. You can leave now!" Bai Liji said.

"Yes!" Ling Zhenhai saluted, then turned and left the office.

"Who is he?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.

"Oh, he's someone recommended by Lao Yan, a retired soldier. He was the one who saved me last time," Bai Liji replied.

Zong Zheng Yue nodded, not asking further.

Since Yan Zhengping recommended him, there shouldn't be any problems.

"I've already sent people to verify his information. Don't worry, I'll be careful," Bai Liji said.

"What exactly happened to you before? How could you..." Zong Zheng Yue changed the subject, no longer dwelling on it.

"That's a long story..." Bai Liji recounted the events.

It turned out that on the eve of last year's Lunar New Year, his convoy was attacked after leaving the Parliament Building. The driver, Wang Yang, took advantage of the chaos to drive the car away from the convoy, after which he fell unconscious. It wasn't until recently that Ling Zhenhai sent people to rescue him and take him to the Southwest Military Region.

"I see! Then this driver, Wang Yang, is a big problem!" Zong Zheng Yue said.

"Yes. Actually, the Central Military Region's investigation team has been secretly monitoring this matter all along, but Wang Yang has been staying at home since he was suspended from his duties. I just inquired, and so far, no useful intelligence has been monitored," Bai Liji replied.

"This matter is now a foregone conclusion; it's clear that the Red Coats orchestrated all of this," Zong Zheng Yue said.

"Yes, that's right. But I haven't figured out how to handle this matter next," Bai Liji said.

"What do you mean?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.

"So far, the higher-ups of the Red Coats shouldn't have received the news yet," Bai Liji said.

"You mean, you want to continue pretending to be that imposter?" Zong Zheng Yue was somewhat surprised.

"It's not that serious. The Red Coats alone aren't worth me wasting my energy on," Bai Liji said.

"Then what do you mean...?" Zong Zheng Yue was confused.

"I'm thinking about how to use this to lure out the big fish behind the scenes," Bai Liji said.

"This... I'm afraid that's not very realistic. Now that this imposter has been exposed, the Red Coats aren't fools; they won't risk anything for him anymore," Zong Zheng Yue said.

"That's right. Since we can't hide this, we might as well use it in reverse," Bai Liji replied.

"Use it in reverse?" Zong Zheng Yue indicated that his imagination wasn't big enough.

"That's right. A chess piece on the board, as long as it hasn't been completely removed from the board, will always have its use. Some useless pieces may become the key to turning the tide at special times," Bai Liji said.

Zong Zheng Yue didn't understand; he didn't understand Go. So he just listened and didn't say anything more.

"However, there's still a problem that can't be solved at the moment," Bai Liji said.

"What problem?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.

"According to our current technical means in China, there's no way to achieve remote, undetectable monitoring," Bai Liji said.

Zong Zheng Yue understood; this was a technical bottleneck.

Remote monitoring is easy to achieve, but undetectable monitoring is not.

"We don't have the technology for this. I think there might be a place that does," Zong Zheng Yue replied.

"Oh? Where?" Bai Liji asked.

"I don't know if you've heard of the Huatong Chamber of Commerce?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.

"Huatong Chamber of Commerce again!" Bai Liji had been hearing this name frequently these past few days.

Logically speaking, the entire parliament had once endorsed the Huatong Chamber of Commerce, and later sent people to participate in their headquarters completion celebration, so almost everyone knew about it. However, Bai Liji was missing a lot of information during his coma.

"You know about it?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.

"Yes, I heard Yan Zhengping mention it when I was recuperating in the Southwest Military Region some time ago," Bai Liji replied.

Zong Zheng Yue nodded.

"Are you clear about the background of this Huatong Chamber of Commerce?" Bai Liji asked.

Alright, the thing he least wanted to mention had finally come.

Zong Zheng Yue felt a headache coming on; he really didn't know how to explain this matter.

As a member of parliament, he couldn't take the position of a non-governmental organization to discuss the issue. But that's how things happened step by step.

Now that it had happened, so be it, but now Bai Liji's return had brought the problem back to square one.

If he were to tell the truth, the Huatong Chamber of Commerce's business was indeed a bit out of bounds, at the very least, it shouldn't exceed the parliament's influence.

"Didn't you ask Lao Yan?" Zong Zheng Yue didn't answer directly, but asked instead.
