Chapter 239 - Leak

 During the meal, Xu Dongtang and the others were also side-tracking and inquiring about some of the things that the official organization was doing.

 "Leader, when will our officials manage the snowstorm?"

 Xu Dongtang took out the maoko he had treasured for years and poured a cup for Liu Ziyan.

 Liu Ziyang lowered his head and drank the cup of maozi, as the white wine entered his throat, a stream of warmth rose up from between his chest and abdomen, causing his face to turn rosy.

 Liu Ziyang however did not make a sound, but picked up his chopsticks and continued to clip the dishes.

 Next to him, Xie Huanhuan replied, "Don't worry about this matter. The officials have already formulated a plan to solve the snowstorm and it will be implemented shortly."

 When Xu Dongtang and the others heard this, a look of anticipation appeared on their faces.

 "Great, great, these damn days are really hard!"

 "It's hopeless to count on us little people. It's still necessary for the state to step in and manage the snowstorm in order for us to live happily ever after again."

 A villager couldn't help but ask: "Is there any expert to give an accurate information, when will this snow stop?"

 Xie Huanhuan smiled and said, "Soon, this snow won't last too long. Look, isn't it already much smaller now? The snow will stop in a few months at most."

 Liu Ziyang next to her couldn't help but give her a look.

 Xie Huanhuan, on the other hand, was still calm, as if what she was saying was the truth.

 Liu Ziyang was dumb, so he stopped saying anything and stuffed his head and ate what was inside the pot.

 Xie Huanhuan took a sip of white wine, her face slightly flushed.

 She didn't dare to drink more, after all, she was on a mission.

 But it was freezing cold, and in the face of something as good as white wine, she couldn't help but drink a little.

 Although with her physique, she wouldn't be afraid of the cold.

 But alcohol was able to bring about a pleasurable feeling, which was again something she couldn't resist.

 After a cup of wine was consumed, Xie Huanhuan also began to inquire about the news with the villagers.

 "In recent times, has anyone inside your village experienced any odd changes?"

 Xu Dongtang sniffed and frowned slightly, not only him, all the people of Xu Dong Village thought of Xu Chunlei at first.

 However, Xu Dongtang feigned incomprehension, "What do you mean by odd changes? Everyone in our village is normal."

 Xie Huanhuan's main mission when they came out was to investigate the population centers and resource points in the surrounding area, and there was also a special mission to look for awakened people and bring them back to the base.

 However, due to the fact that the number of natural born Inhumans was too rare, so far they hadn't found a few in their base.

 So Xie Huanhuan just casually asked and didn't hold much hope.

 But as a soldier, her powers of observation were still very sharp.

 The change in the expressions on the villagers' faces was detected by her.

 She immediately put down the wine glass in her hand and said indifferently, "It's those characters whose bodies have mutated and have abilities that are different from normal people. I believe that you all spend time together, so if anyone has undergone a mutation, we can all see it."

 "If you can provide useful information, the organization will reward you very handsomely!"

 The villagers lowered their heads, their eyes flickering as they mentally weighed the gold content of Xie Huanhuan's words.

 But everyone said nothing.

 It was not their turn to speak when Xu Dongtang, the clan leader and village chief, was present.

 Behind Xu Dongtang's gold-rimmed glasses, his small eyes flickered with a bright and uncertain light.

 The person the other party was talking about was undoubtedly referring to Xu Chunlei.

 Should he expose his existence?

 Xu Dongtang was not in a hurry, he instead inquired, "I dare to ask, what is the organization looking for these people for ah?"

 Xie Huanhuan was even more certain in her heart that Xu Dongtang Village's people had information about the Inhumans.

 A kind smile appeared on her face as she said to Xu Dongtang, "Characters like this are precious talents of the country. We need to put their abilities to use and contribute to rebuilding our home!"

 "Village Chief, if you know news of such people, you must report it in time! The organization will give you a big credit."

 Xu Dongtang nodded, "Oh, so that's how it is!"

 He lowered his head to pour the wine, but a smirk flashed across his eyes.

 It's all well and good to talk about it, but you haven't seen any real benefits either.

 Xu Chunlei, he is the most important treasure of our Xu Dong Village!

 Without him, I don't know what the village will become in the future.

 I'm not going to hand him over!

 "I'll keep an eye out in the future, and if I really find the existence of such a person, I'll definitely report to the leaders in time!"

 Xu Dongtang said and took out his cell phone, smilingly handing it to Xie Huanhuan: "Leader, let's add a contact!"

 But Xie Huanhuan's face suddenly changed.

 She raised her head to look at Xu Dongtang and said with a smile, "Village Chief, are you hiding something from me?"

 "Being dishonest to the organization above is a very bad behavior."

 The atmosphere at the scene became very grave all of a sudden.

 Everyone was stunned and didn't know what to say.

 Only Liu Ziyang was still eating in large mouthfuls.

 Xu Dongtang's hand froze in mid-air as he suddenly revealed a puzzled expression and said with a frown, "Nothing! What do you mean by that, Leader, I'm absolutely loyal to the organization that's why I can't say half a lie!"

 Xie Huanhuan faintly asked, "Then you really don't have any foreigners around you?"

 "Think before you answer. This is something that the organization attaches great importance to, and once you withhold information, the consequences can be very serious!"

 Xie Huanhuan certainly cared about this kind of thing.

 Once she could find a natural-born Inhuman, the organization would give her a large amount of credit.

 She could tell that Xu Dongtang and the others were hiding very important information.

 These ordinary people didn't do enough to manage their expressions and couldn't hide the lies they told.

 The smile on Xu Dongtang's face was a little awkward for a moment after his lie was broken.

 But soon, an inspiration suddenly appeared in the middle of his mind.

 There was!

 Xu Dongtang hurriedly said, ''Leader, if you say so, I do have a suspect. It's just that that person isn't from our Xu Dong Village, so we don't know much about him. That's why we didn't dare to just say it!"

 Xie Huanhuan asked, "Who is that person?"

 Xu Dongtang gritted his teeth and said, "That person's name is Zhang Yi, and he lives inside the Yunque Manor across the river from us!"

 At the mention of Zhang Yi, everyone in Xu Dongtang Village gritted their teeth in hatred.

 They all had family members who died in that night's attack, how could they not hate Zhang Yi?

 Xie Huanhuan's eyes lit up when she heard the name "Zhang Yi".

 The special mission she received mentioned this name.

 If there were no accidents, the Zhang Yi that Xu Dongtang spoke of was the person she needed to investigate.

 "What a coincidence!"

 Xie Huanhuan said to herself.

 It just so happened that she could use this opportunity to obtain information about Zhang Yi from the mouths of Xu Dongtang's villagers.
