1463 Mystical Stratagem (1/2)

In Chen Xiaobei's quarters.

Zhu Dachang snuck in and closed the door behind him carefully.

”Mr. Chen! Lu Mingjun is going to set you up!” Zhu Dachang whispered.

”That's already expected. It's nothing to fuss over.” Chen Xiaobei said placidly. ”So, what is it?”

”Lu Mingjun wants me to drug you, and then bring your Infinite Space Ring to him! He didn't tell me exactly what he wants to do with it!”

”Heh! That's simple! He wants me unconscious but he only wants to take the Infinite Space Ring! That means he wants to do something to my Infinite Space Ring!”

”What is he going to do?” Zhu Dachang sounded very concerned.

A treacherous, untrustworthy, despicable scumbag like Lu Mingjun was like a poisonous snake. Once he decided to attack, he would make sure that it was the deadliest attack he could muster!

”It seems like you're not very smart, after all!” Chen Xiaobei chuckled. ”10 missing combat space jets. Li Mingjun's number one priority right now would be to salvage this situation! He wants my Infinite Space Ring – that means he wants to plant combat space jets inside my ring! Then, I would be carrying around an undeniable criminal evidence! Then he will just put all the blame of the other 10 missing combat spacecraft on me! He will sentence me to torture, and force me to reveal the location of the space jets or force me to name my accomplices! No matter how much I deny it, this crime will be pinned on me, and the Lus will be cleared!”

Chen Xiaobei's analysis was perfectly reasonable and precise.

Zhu Dachang took in a deep breath and exclaimed, ”Lu Mingjun really is a crafty old scoundrel! Not only would he be able to destroy you, he could also save his family's name! That's like killing two birds with one stone!”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged, a smile playing on his lips. ”Heh, he really is a crafty old scoundrel. Sadly for him, I've already predicted everything. He will never be able to slip through my fingers!”

”That's right!” Lu Changwei nodded. ”Mr. Chen's prediction is on point! An unpredictable prophet with an amazing foresight! When it comes to intelligence and resourcefulness, you are 10 times ahead of Lu Mingjun! Following you has been the best decision I've ever made in my life!”

”Alright, enough with the ass-sucking!” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. ”Take out the drug, and do as Lu Mingjun said!”

”What?!” Zhu Dachang's mouth fell wide open. ”Shouldn't we be discussing a counterplan? If we do what he wants, then aren't you jumping into the trap?”

”Heh, who do you think stole the 10 combat space jets?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

”I…” Zhu Dachang swallowed, and then in a small voice, said, ”I think it's you…”

”Now, isn't that right? I could hide 10 combat space jets, which means I could hide more! How many Lu Mingjun puts into my Infinite Space Ring, that's how many he's gifting to me! I might as well take them!”

”Wow! That's incredible, Mr. Chen!” Zhu Dachang was practically leaping with excitement. ”Compared to you, Lu Mingjun is a mullock! He will never be able to slip from your fingers!”

”Hehe.” Chen Xiaobei chuckled as if everything was under control.

After that, Zhu Dachang ran into the HIVE with Chen Xiaobei's Infinite Space Ring in his hand. ”Uncle Lu! By good luck, I was able to accomplish the mission! I have Chen Zhufeng's Infinite Space Ring!”

”Good! You did a very good job!” Lu Mingjun took the ring from him.

He examined the contents, and confirmed that it was Chen Xiaobei's.

”Are you certain that Chen Zhufeng drank everything?” Lu Mingjun asked.
