Resurrection Empire

In the underground interrogation room of Chromium Carbon Resources.

With a face completely drained of color, Yang Bingzhong sat trembling on a chair, his hands hanging limp.

He had interrogated many people here and had also tortured many to death.

In the past, when he was here, he had the illusion that he was a ruler of the human realm.

He wielded the power of life and death over the wasteland people, controlling everything.

It was also here that he completed most of his plans to date, gradually making his way halfway through the social hierarchy from a small-town enterprise owner entrusted under urgent circumstances.

Before today, he almost believed that becoming a Fifth Level Citizen was within his reach.

However, at this moment, he had become a prisoner about to face interrogation.

The same place, the same people, yet an entirely different situation.

In front of him, a woman in a white robe, her face indistinct, was slowly lifting a perfectly structured icosahedron from a box.

She was a Level Eight Telekinesis Master.

Yang Bingzhong, who was harboring countless secrets, knew very well that he could not pass this trial.

Despite knowing the odds were stacked against him, Yang Bingzhong still couldn't control his wild imagination and began his frantic mental extrapolation.

He wanted to be a ghost who understood his fate.

Yet he still had doubts in his mind, a million points of confusion he could not fathom.

A few minutes earlier, he had started from the fact that Ren Zhong had concealed his citizen status, and quickly deduced that he had been betrayed by Ren Zhong.

In a panic, he had lashed out, accusing Ren Zhong of being his accomplice in an attempt to drag Ren Zhong down with him.

But immediately after speaking, he was reprimanded by the commander of the Special Forces.

Even he found it absurd.

If Ren Zhong were still just a wasteland person, his hasty accusation could indeed have left Ren Zhong no chance to defend himself and face immediate execution.

But Ren Zhong was now a citizen, no longer a pig-like wasteland person, and had gained the "right" to be interrogated.

Upon learning that Ren Zhong would also face a psychological assessment, he became even more bewildered.

Yang Bingzhong couldn't understand how Ren Zhong, if he truly had been betraying him all along, had passed his psychological assessment that afternoon.

No one can lie during a psychological assessment!

So, Ren Zhong really didn't know about the Alien Ore, nor did he trap me in the stock market.

He took the risk of offending me to force me to liquidate my position, truly intending to save me, he just failed.

Was it my own stupidity, that I promised him to liquidate but then secretly increased my position in private equity?

Could it be that Ren Zhong never truly betrayed me?

He's just too good at seducing women, too good at playing with their feelings, that even after such a big blow-up, Ma Xiaoling still chose to forgive him?

Oh, no wonder that when they left, the Ma family father and daughter were still so furious.

Ren Zhong must have lied to them again, promised to stay in Starfire Town to face the Pu Cha together, and ultimately broke his promise, which reignited the Ma Family's anger.

Ren Zhong, I wronged you.

In this short amount of time, Yang Bingzhong's mind had extrapolated too much, even subconsciously ignoring the almost revealing smile Ren Zhong had shown when he acknowledged his citizen status earlier.

"Yang Bingzhong, giving you one last chance, focus, and look at it."

The Special Forces leader in light, fitted armor next to him said coldly.

Knowing he was doomed, Yang Bingzhong nodded but only said, "Before accepting the investigation, I have one last thing to say to my subordinate, Ren Zhong. After all, I am a Fourth Level Citizen, not without some influence, so please grant me some respect."

"Alright."

A minute later, Ren Zhong was permitted to enter the interrogation room and saw Yang Bingzhong.

Manager Yang stood up slowly, looking directly at Ren Zhong, "If you truly didn't betray me, then please accept my apologies. You are not my accomplice, you didn't know about the Alien Ore."

Ren Zhong: "..."

He was speechless.

Is this the fabled kindness of a man facing death?

However, the Special Forces leader beside him couldn't hold back any longer.

Given that Yang Bingzhong's wrist watch was already removed, cutting him off from the outside world, and he would soon be either executed or imprisoned on the spot, the happenings in Starfire Town would be truthfully reported.

The soldier spoke directly: "With so many eyes outside, to protect the informant's safety, I hid the information in the announcement. Yang Bingzhong, the person who reported you by name is right in front of you, this subordinate of First Level Citizen Chen Hanyu. His original name was Han Yu. How could he possibly not know about the Alien Ore?"

Yang Bingzhong's pupils contracted sharply.

The regret he had just formed for Ren Zhong turned back into rage.

He once again howled hysterically, accusing Ren Zhong, "Then he's definitely involved! I even had a Fifth Level Telekinesis Master give him a psychological assessment this afternoon, he lied in the assessment easily! No matter what they say, don't believe him! He definitely has issues! He's an anomaly! The most treacherous villain on this planet!"
