Chapter 219
Chapter 219: You Raised Me, You Hatched Me, I Learned Everything From You
Jiang Tea Tea’s expression did not change as she snapped back at him: “My excellence has nothing to do with you. Stop trying to make yourself look good.”
Wolf Yin Feng gnashed his teeth, eyes bloodshot: “Without me, how would you exist? Don’t forget, I personally made you.”
Jiang Tea Tea tossed the used wet wipe onto the table: “Who exactly did you personally make? Me, or the other dozen or so?”
She spoke slowly, every word clear: “No. We weren’t made by you. The ones you made that were your blood relatives have long already returned to your body.”
She looked straight at him and drew a line: “We are ourselves. We are independent people and have nothing to do with you.”
Wolf Yin Feng’s deepest secret had been stripped bare. Yes, in order to stay alive, he had replaced all the organs in his body again and again, changed his blood again and again, all using his closest blood relatives.
He not only used other people for experiments, he also killed his own blood relatives, his hands soaked in blood.
Jiang Tea Tea took in his twisted expression and lightly asked back: “Did I say anything wrong? I didn’t, right?”
She listed his two-faced life without mercy: “On the outside, you never married and had no children. You only had research in your heart and wanted to give all your energy to the nation and to scientific work.”
Her tone sharpened: “But in private, you did have children. You had sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters. The first time you replaced all your heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and organs, you used your son. Your first full blood replacement also used your son.”
Her voice stayed calm as she described the horror: “Your son didn’t agree, so you tied him to the lab table and personally picked up the knife to remove all his organs. He begged you, cried and begged you to put in artificial organs for him, but you refused. You let him die on the lab table while his mind was fully awake. Did I say anything wrong?”
Wolf Yin Feng stared into her dark eyes for a long time. The defenses in his heart finally collapsed. He opened his mouth, blood-tinged spit flying: “You’re not wrong. You’re not wrong at all. You all have nothing to do with me.”
He confessed in a crazed roar: “My own children, my direct relatives for three generations, are all dead, all killed by me.”
His voice dropped to a low, fanatical mutter: “I developed immortality. Immortality has side effects. Immortality comes at a price, a price in blood.”
He stared at the ceiling, justifying himself: “If I don’t want to die, then they have to die. My sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters, my younger brothers, younger sisters, and their children, I gave them endless money and huge houses. They enjoyed everything. In the end it was all so they would die for me. So what? That’s what they owed me!”
Jiang Tea Tea’s lip curled in mockery: “Wolf Bai Yue, relying on swapping in your descendants’ organs, blood, supernatural abilities and spiritual power just to cling to life for a thousand years isn’t the immortality you researched, and it doesn’t count as immortality.”
She explained coldly, like a teacher exposing a lie: “In the M31 Star System, no matter who it is, as long as their supernatural ability level is high enough, their moods are calmed properly, and their spiritual sea is well adjusted, their lifespan will be longer, up to three hundred or five hundred years. The Insectoid race can live even longer.”
Her eyes swept over him with disgust: “Your own supernatural ability level isn’t low, and you yourself do research on supernatural abilities. You could have lived more than three or five hundred years to begin with. But your greed piled up your life with your descendants’ lives and let you live another four or five hundred years.”
She pointed directly at the root of his actions: “You raised me and raised the other dozen or so children because no matter how many new organs you changed, no matter how many times you exchanged your blood, your organs were still failing.”
Her voice grew even colder: “They decayed until you completely lost your fertility ability, and you had already killed all your three generations of direct relatives. You didn’t want to die, so you decided to test other people’s organs and blood. That was why you raised us.”
She stated the final cruel truth: “Sadly for you, neither we nor the many younglings you raised before could be used as organ or blood donors for you, so you allowed us to stay alive.”
In her mind she could not help but think of those others: the fake young miss and her brothers and sisters. The fake young miss and her brothers and sisters were really unlucky. Their lives twisted again and again, and no one had ever expected anything of them or loved them.
From the moment they were embryos, they were tools, containers. The one who made them never treated them as people. They were pitiful and miserable.
Wolf Yin Feng leaned his body forward, trying to break free of the handcuffs. His old face twisted in ugliness: “Jiang Tea Tea, what do you know? I gave my descendants and you your lives, so I have the right to take them back.”
His voice was thick with distorted pride: “It’s their honor that the organs and blood of my dearest descendants are inside my body.”
He tried to paint himself as a great man: “If I live a thousand years, I’ll use my knowledge and experiments to lead the White Wolf Tribe from only a few thousand people to more than a hundred thousand, and soon…”
Jiang Tea Tea did not bother to waste more words with him and cut him off: “Keep slowly dreaming about your grand goals.”
She stood up, dusting imaginary dirt from her clothes: “I’m very busy and don’t have time to listen to your nonsense here. But rest assured, the mining planets you hid, the planting stars, and the list of your hidden friends in various countries and researchers, I’ll hand them all over to Commander in Chief Chong Ming.”
After hearing this, Wolf Yin Feng felt like someone had dug out his liver and lungs: “No, no, no, Tea Tea, you can’t do this, you can’t do this…”
Jiang Tea Tea did not even look at him. She raised her palm through the air and flicked it down. Her slap landed squarely on the shouting Wolf Yin Feng’s face, knocking out all his remaining teeth so that blood kept pouring out of his mouth.
Seeing him like that, Jiang Tea Tea had planned to leave, but decided to stab at his heart one more time. She tapped her light-brain wrist terminal and projected a holo screen. In an instant, Chong Ming’s image appeared on it.
Wolf Yin Feng froze as if someone had hit the pause button. He even stopped spitting blood. His face turned ashen as he stared blankly at Commander in Chief Chong Ming on the screen.
Jiang Tea Tea knocked on the table to remind him: “Why can’t I do this? I’ve been doing it the whole time.”
She casually exposed the truth: “From the moment I came in, Commander in Chief Chong Ming has been watching our whole conversation.”
Her lips curled slightly: “Didn’t you want me to beg him to let you go? Come on, I’ll give you a chance. You can talk face to face and beg him yourself. See if he’ll give you a chance for the sake of immortality.”
After Jiang Tea Tea finished speaking, she turned around and left, clean and decisive.
Chong Ming’s golden eyes gave Wolf Yin Feng a cold glance. He did not say a word, then shut off the screen and disappeared from Wolf Yin Feng’s sight.
Wolf Yin Feng suddenly flared up in a final burst of energy and shouted loudly: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, spare me, spare me. I have a way for you to live for a thousand years.”
He tried one last time to lure him in: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, you’re one of the strongest and most powerful beastmen in the Zhenlin Empire and even the whole star system. As long as you’re willing to invest in me and make things easy for me, I’ll definitely develop immortality with no side effects so you can live for a thousand years.”
His voice turned frantic, like a street hawker selling wares: “Immortality, everyone wants immortality. Don’t you want immortality?”
He called and called: “Commander in Chief Chong Ming, Commander in Chief Chong Ming…”
Then he screamed for the person who had already left: “Jiang Tea Tea, Jiang Tea Tea, I’m your dad, I’m your dad, come back here, come back…”
His voice echoed in the interrogation room again and again. The only answer was the four white walls, silent and hopeless.
When the people from the Judicial Department saw Jiang Tea Tea come out, they all went up to greet her, each of them smiling like a flower: “Schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea, hello. I’m the person in charge of the Judicial Department’s case on Wolf Yin Feng. My name is Jin Huan. I’m very happy to meet you. Let’s exchange contact information so it’ll be easier to reach you in the future.”
Jiang Tea Tea glanced at the others. Each one of them was blooming like a trumpet flower, smiling like human traffickers.
Seeing that she did not speak, Jin Huan thought she was worried about something and hurried to explain: “Schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea, don’t misunderstand. I’m adding your contact not to ask you for healing, but because I have a few other cases here that I might need your help with later.”
He continued carefully, afraid she would refuse: “You know, I can’t just get your contact information whenever I want. Meeting you here today is my honor. No, it’s the honor of our entire Judicial Department.”
Jiang Tea Tea opened her light-brain wrist terminal as she spoke: “I’m very busy with classes. If you want to ask for my help, it’s best for you to first contact Commander in Chief Chong Ming, or set it up ten days to half a month in advance to make an appointment with me.”
Joy lit up Jin Huan’s face. He quickly scanned her contact number and nodded with a smile: “Okay, okay, I’ve noted it down. Thank you, thank you.”
Jiang Tea Tea said simply: “No need to be polite. Find a room. I’ll tell you everything I saw in Wolf Yin Feng’s mind.”
Jin Huan hurried to say: “Okay, okay, this way, please, this way.”
Jiang Tea Tea did not stand on ceremony. Under his lead, she went to a comfortable room.
The people who did not have the right to follow Jin Huan and Jiang Tea Tea into the room looked at the closed door and sighed: “I thought that a nation-level supernatural ability hypnotist was already amazing. I didn’t expect that the real masters are among the common people.”
Another person agreed: “Yeah. We found ten top tier supernatural ability hypnotists, almost went to Beyond the Star System to bring some in, and still couldn’t pry open Wolf Yin Feng’s mouth. Who knew Wolf Yin Feng would call over the very person who could open his own mouth.”
Someone snorted: “Is this what they call lifting a rock only to smash your own foot?”
Another corrected him: “No, this is called bringing your own ruin on yourself. He asked for it. He deserves it.”
A young staffer sighed with admiration: “Schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea is really amazing. She’s only eighteen, only eighteen. I really can’t imagine how incredible she’ll be at twenty-eight, thirty-eight, or fifty-eight.”
Someone laughed: “What’s there you can’t imagine? She’ll be like our Commander in Chief version 2.0, becoming the only top tier pure human in the whole interstellar space.”
Another person waved his hand: “Okay, okay, stop talking, stop talking. Get back to work.”
Someone lowered his voice and added: “While Jiang Tea Tea was questioning Wolf Yin Feng, Commander in Chief Chong Ming was watching the whole time. That means our Judicial Department has no secrets from him.”
Jiang Tea Tea spent two hours, leaving out not a single detail, reciting everything she had seen in Wolf Yin Feng’s memories.
While she retold it, there were not only recording staff, but also video recordings, audio recordings, and all kinds of professional records, making sure to follow her memories and dig Wolf Yin Feng out completely.
As soon as Jiang Tea Tea left the Judicial Department and boarded the ship, Jin Huan started filing a report to his higher-up leaders, asking them to report to Commander in Chief Chong Ming and get Jiang Tea Tea involved in the other cases he was handling.
The reason he did not directly message Jiang Tea Tea to set up a time was because Commander in Chief Chong Ming valued her too much. He had to handle the human relationships properly and let Commander in Chief Chong Ming know about any honor that belonged to Jiang Tea Tea.
Zhong Li He had just gotten off the ship and moved into the hotel. He had just undone two buttons of his shirt and rolled up his sleeves, ready to work on government affairs with Kong Que, when he received a message from Chong Ming. His anger flared up at once as he complained: “Kong Que, tell me, does that dragon Chong Ming have a screw loose or what!”
Kong Que took a look at the message Commander in Chief Chong Ming had sent their supreme executive commander. The message said: “Today I just learned that my youngling’s mother, the future Commander in Chief of the three armies, has a variant illusion technique and hypnosis supernatural ability.”
After reading the message, Kong Que had just opened his mouth to speak when two more messages from Commander in Chief Chong Ming popped up on the supreme executive commander’s light-brain wrist terminal.
Kong Que watched as Zhong Li He opened the next one. It read: “My future Commander in Chief of the three armies, Jiang Tea Tea, has helped me solve all the secrets and defenses of the chief perpetrator of the human experimentation and Embryo Screening Laboratory I was investigating before.”
Then they opened the last one: “These are the addresses of the illegal research institute laboratories in your Western Kingdom that she pulled out from the chief perpetrator’s memory, the information on the people in charge, and the list of those in your Western Kingdom suspected of organ transplants, illegal supernatural ability transplantation, and human trafficking.”
Kong Que reached out and tapped the list on Zhong Li He’s light-brain wrist terminal. The list was very long, with more than a hundred people involved in the case: “Supreme Executive Commander, Chong Ming isn’t sick. He’s helping us. Look, our Western Kingdom has quite a lot of parasites.”
Zhong Li He bent down and moved closer, his head bumping lightly into Kong Que’s. After he saw the list and all kinds of information, he sighed: “Wow, Jiang Tea Tea’s ability is really the more you see, the more you like it, the more you like her.”
He suddenly turned to his aide with a strange idea: “Kong Que, pure humans really don’t like brightly feathered birds, right? How about I go dye my feathers, dye them all gold?”
Kong Que was silent for a moment before answering seriously: “Supreme Executive Commander, your feathers are very beautiful. They don’t need dye. If you feel like you can’t get the upper hand in front of Commander in Chief Chong Ming, next time he provokes you, you can say, Miss Jiang Tea Tea doesn’t like me, and she doesn’t like you, that old dragon, either, so stop showing off in front of me.”
Zhong Li He’s eyes blinked. He reached out and rubbed Kong Que’s head, messing his hair into a bird’s nest: “Kong Que, I’ve discovered that sometimes your mouth can be pretty sharp too. Come on, tell me, where did you go to train behind my back?”
Kong Que looked up at him, his gaze serious and focused: “I was picked up by the Supreme Executive Commander and hatched by you. Everything about me, I learned from you.”
Zhong Li He broke eye contact with him. The hand that was rubbing his hair landed on his forehead and pushed his raised head down so he could not look at him.
He cleared his throat and changed the subject: “Enough, stop flattering me. Set up a few remote meetings for me. I want to use the list Chong Ming gave me to form three squads to investigate.”
Kong Que lowered his eyes slightly: “Yes, Supreme Executive Commander.”
Zhong Li He stood up: “I’ll send you a copy of the list. First set up those remote meetings for me. I’m going to wash my face.”
Kong Que looked up at his back and answered softly: “Yes, Supreme Executive Commander.”
Later, Jiang Tea Tea, Sui Xuan Chu, and the others, eight people in total, received the equipment for this mission: air-compression guns, fire guns, and cold weapon blades.
The leader in charge of them watched them put on and pack up everything, then said to them: “Right below our ship is a laboratory of about five thousand square meters.”
He pointed down as he explained the situation: “The equipment inside the laboratory has almost all been destroyed, and the harmful substances have pretty much been used up, but after three months, within a hundred kilometers around the laboratory there has been a large area of animal deaths. The cause of death is the same: the throats were bitten through, the blood sucked out, and the flesh gnawed clean!”
The leader’s eyes grew serious: “We suspect there is a hidden level inside the laboratory that we haven’t detected, and that a new-type mutant that likes to eat raw meat and drink fresh blood is still alive in that hidden level. The danger level of the mission isn’t too high. The eight of you will make a trip and capture that new-type mutant alive!”
