Starting as a Wallfacer, his defection to the Three-Body Problem shocked the world.

Chapter 310 Even More Troublesome Than Lin Xuan

"What did you find?"

Lin Xuan looked at Simothers, who was squatting on the ground fiddling with the body parts. He hadn't chosen to leave any survivors because Number Three had already sent him detailed information about these people.

To his disappointment, these city defense soldiers were nothing special; they were just carrying out their duties as usual.

This group of city guards consisted of thirteen men, but the number on the scene clearly didn't match. It was easy to guess where the others had gone; they were probably escorting Felix to prison. If they were fast enough, they should be able to catch up with the city guards.

“Bai Bing, this matter is a bit strange. I just spoke with Felix two hours before we came. At that time, he was eating noodles at home.”

Himothers stood up and pointed to the bowl of noodles on the table.

Before they arrived, Simothers had already made arrangements for them. Felix wasn't as easy to talk to as Wally. If they hadn't discussed it beforehand, Bai Bing and the others might have come all this way only to be turned away.

Unexpectedly, not only did they fail to see the person, they also nearly fell into an ambush by the city defense troops.

The most crucial point is that all of this is happening in Xinghuo's underground headquarters, which makes the matter far more bizarre than it could have been.

The guards of the mechanical Earth can be roughly divided into three types.

One type is the city defense force, also known as the city defense army. They are guard forces directly under the government, but in terms of combat effectiveness, they are the weakest of all the forces and have the worst equipment.

The city defense soldiers who attacked the group inside the house earlier were using beam weapons that had been phased out by the frontline troops more than a decade ago. If Lin Xuan hadn't been surprised to find them lying in ambush here, even without activating the nanobots to form a defense, these beam weapons would have had a hard time penetrating the group's skin.

The other type is the mechanical guards and terrorist forces led by giant corporations. They are directly under the command of these companies and are the main law enforcement agencies on this planet.

This sounds absurd, but in a mechanical world dominated by capitalism, it makes perfect sense.

These units were initially tasked with carrying out assassinations or debt collection for corporations. However, as the government became increasingly infiltrated by corporations, a law was passed 24 years ago granting these corporate private armies maximum law enforcement power.

From that point on, giant corporations rose above the government.

Therefore, when Felix led his men to cause trouble at the city center, the members of Starfire were not worried at all that he would be arrested.

Behind Spark is Hope, and behind Hope is Shadowlight Pharmaceuticals. Even if the terrorist forces are concerned about this relationship, they dare not easily intervene in the conflict between the two companies.

However, the city defense forces directly under the government did what the terrorist forces dared not do.

They not only sent men to arrest Felix, but they even dared to ambush members of Starfire on Starfire's own territory.

Who exactly is giving them these orders?

Soon, Himothers informed Hope, the fourth leader of Starfire, of the situation. Hope was equally shocked when she heard the news.

He immediately accessed all the surveillance footage from the entire underground city and then sent a video to Himothers.

"Judging from the video, the city's defense forces appear to have been mobilized suddenly."

Himothers pointed to the screen, which was showing a patrol of city defense troops passing by the ground entrance.

Then, as if they had received some kind of order, they suddenly began to call their companions into the underground corridor area.

Because the city defense forces were not very prominent and had never had any conflict with Xinghuo, Xinghuo's sentries simply registered them and let them leave.

Then, a bewildered Felix was taken away from his home by the city guards. He didn't even have time to change his clothes before leaving; he was just wearing a white vest when he got into the car and drove away with them.

But judging from the way he walked side by side with the city garrison soldiers and chatted happily, this kid was obviously not forcibly taken away from his home by them.

Next, Lin Xuan and her group arrive and engage in a firefight with the city defense forces. The video ends here.

"I'm a little confused. What's going on here?"

Lin Qi watched the video over and over again. At first, he thought the video had been edited, but no matter how he adjusted it, he couldn't find any problems with the video.

"So, Felix really went with them voluntarily, and he even left us a surprise gift at home?"

Su Zilin scratched his head and looked at Lin Xuan.

"Team White, what should we do now? Should we continue chasing?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan pondered for a moment.

"Let's go after them, but we need to split up from here on out."

"why?"

Not only the members of Squad 13, but even Simothers couldn't understand Lin Xuan's thought process.

Why did we suddenly decide to split up? Can't you explain this clearly?

"Captain Bai, have you noticed something amiss?"

Lin Xuan remained noncommittal.

"It's not certain yet, but you guys go after Felix first. If I'm not mistaken, he should be fine. Bring him back and tell him I need to see him tonight. We can meet up here."

After saying that, Lin Xuan turned and walked out of the room.

Su Zilin wanted to chase after him to find out more, but Zuo Xiao stopped him first.

"Let's do as the White Team says for now. Let's go find Felix first."

……

After returning to the ground, Lin Xuan found a secluded spot and used her communicator to dial the contact information that Number Three had left for her.

"Hi, Bai Bing, have you been having fun lately? And... why are you asking me for so much data about Earth One? Are you planning to switch jobs and go to Earth One?"

Number Three's voice soon came through the communicator, just like when they first met.

"I have arrived at Earth-1."

"what?"

When Number Three heard Lin Xuan's words, his tone froze for a moment, clearly not expecting that Lin Xuan would actually be on Earth One.

"What happened? You're not really planning to switch jobs, are you?"

Lin Xuan was too lazy to chat with him, so he simply recounted the recent events to Number Three. However, he concealed some of his own affairs, which Number Three would find difficult to verify unless he investigated carefully.

After listening to Lin Xuan's retelling, Number Three remained silent for a long time.

Especially when he heard that Lin Xuan had been in the Mind Earth for less than a few months, she had been promoted three times in a row from the logistics and research department, and had been directly promoted to the front line, he couldn't hold back anymore.

"How come the trouble you're causing is even more outrageous than that observer Lin Xuan from Earth-4?"
