Zhang Li's expression froze for a moment before she quickly returned to normal.

"In fact, our main responsibility is to monitor abnormal events in the country, just like the incident encountered by Mr. Lu."

Then, she said calmly, "It looks like Mr. Lu is recovering very well."

Lu Ren: "Do you know what happened?"

"In a commercial street near the Shu Du Immortal Bridge, a total of 67 people in an area had suddenly disappeared in the full view of everyone. Through detection, it had been determined that the spatial tremors caused by the connection of time and space had resulted in a spatial gap. Then, all of you fell into another spacetime. However, as your bodies did not belong to that spacetime, when space and time separated, it would bounce you back to your original spacetime, which is our world."

At this point, Zhang Li was also a little confused. Then, she shrugged. "Well, in short, this is the broad explanation of what had happened, including the tremors of the first spatial connection you had encountered."

It was a classic example of narrating from a book!

Lu Ren's expression changed slightly. "It looks like all of you know the reason for my first encounter. I was wondering if anyone would believe me if I told you this."

No one would believe him. He had indeed planned to tell the truth previously, but if by doing so, he would be accused of having committed murder and dumping the corpses to avoid being convicted, it was better to deny everything to save trouble.

"If someone had told me three years ago that they had gone to another spacetime and returned, I wouldn't have believed it either."

Zhang Li shook her head slightly and sighed. "The world has changed too quickly."

"I should be the one complaining!"

Lu Ren asked, "Where are the others who fell in with me?"

Zhang Li explained, "You're one of the survivors."

Lu Ren said with interest, "How many people have survived?"

"A total of 323 people have gone missing, but there are a total of seven people who had returned alive, including you."

After Zhang Li had answered, she looked straight at Lu Ren and said, "I believe Mr. Lu has also entered such a similar space before. Your friends, Luo Zixuan, Wang Gang, and Zhang Qingya have probably died in the mystic realm."

Lu Ren did not comment. He did not answer Zhang Li's question but asked, "Is there anything you want to ask me by looking for me?"

Zhang Li looked directly into Lu Ren's eyes. "You were the first to wake up, and you are also the person with the strongest physique among them. Moreover, you have mastered martial arts, so we would like to ask you what you have encountered inside?"

Lu Ren: "Would there be any benefits?"

Zhang Li was stunned for a moment. She pondered for a moment and said, "Don't you want to learn martial arts? We can get someone to teach you!"

Lu Ren's eyes suddenly lit up. "Really?"

Zhang Li nodded slightly. "I'm the Captain of Team One of the Security Bureau. This arrangement is still doable, and the dagger in your possession would be more than enough."

After a pause, he said seriously, "Now, please tell me in detail what you had encountered in that spacetime."

Lu Ren was not surprised to hear this. He would really be shocked if the dagger was still in his possession. "Alright, I still have something to do."

Zhang Li frowned. "What?"

"I just woke up. I'm very hungry."

"…"

An hour later, Lu Ren patted his full stomach and lay on the bed in satisfaction. He looked at the man and woman sitting in front of him.

The man was the Deputy Team Leader of the Internal Security Bureau. His name was Xiao Chen, and the woman was Zhang Li.

"Tell me, what do you want to ask me? I'll be very cooperative."

Xiao Chen crossed his muscular arms and was the first to ask.

"While you were eating, the others had gradually woken up one after another, but they all seemed to have been greatly provoked. Their words were unclear, but when you woke up, you did not show any signs of overreaction. We want to know what happened to you over there? What have you experienced?"

"Hey, hey, hey, please. I'm a victim. Please don't be so dark in your thoughts. Don't speak in an interrogative tone, okay? I strongly request that someone else come!"

Xiao Chen's expression froze. Zhang Li waved her hand. "Alright, alright. It's just a formality. Hurry up. I won't disturb you after this."

Lu Ren did not hide anymore. Instead, he told them in detail everything that had happened to him. Of course, he chose to avoid the System's matters selectively. He also selectively chose to tell them his cautious attitude toward others. It was better to keep some things to himself, he would be a fool if he was undiscerning.

Zhang Li, who was holding a recording pen, seemed to be in thought. Then, she asked, "What have you done with the humans in that world, namely Xiang Yang?"

"For someone with such a dark mind and impure intentions, I naturally had to use love to influence her."

Lu Ren could not stop praising his idea. He looked a little narcissistic.

"Use love?"

"You know."

Seeing that Xiao Chen, who had a righteous expression, was about to speak, Lu Ren interrupted, "Hey, don't kidnap me with that morality. I don't have morals. Moreover, I was in a state of emergency at that time, and I was not on Earth. You can't control me."

Xiao Chen had no choice but to ask, "In this case, the artificial intelligence named Pure Void said that you have an ethnic reproductive isolation from the humans of that world?"

Lu Ren had a strange expression. "You seem very interested?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Li could not help but look at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen coughed awkwardly. "I'm purely curious about exploring this from a biological perspective. Captain, as you know, I'm a graduate student in biology."

Lu Ren was a little helpless. "Please, the most valuable Ultra-High Frequency Cutting Blade by my side has already been taken away by the two of you. You don't have to confiscate it. You have to at least compensate me. This is technology that surpassed the real world by decades!"

Zhang Li: "Don't worry, after we've verified it, we'll definitely satisfy you!"

"That's good!" Lu Ren smiled again.

Lu Ren then spent a full two hours clarifying Zhang Li and Xiao Chen's doubts. He spoke until his mouth was dry. He had even been asked many questions repeatedly. Then, Zhang Li stood up and nodded, turning off the recording pen.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Lu. If there are any more questions, we'll contact you again. You can't leave this place for the time being until we've confirmed that you have not been contaminated by strange things."

"Hey, hey, what strange things?"

"It might be a microorganism, or a virus carried by the other world!"

"Damn, no wonder there was a layer of glass between us when we spoke!"

Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, Lu Ren shouted, "Don't forget to arrange for someone to teach me martial arts! No matter what, I've become a savior!"

After the special ward had quietened down, Lu Ren had the chance to open his character panel.
