Chapter 1179 Who?

“It isn't just Tao Xiaotao. There are more.” Li Lanfeng sneered.

He looked at Zhao Jun and whispered, “What's the condition on your side?”

Zhao Jun looked at his communicator. “They're here.”

The doors of the meeting room were opened again. Four figures appeared this time. Ling Yi knew who they were. They were the people he met at the First Men's Military Academy and entered the 23rd division with him. They were Yi Tiange, Yan Wuyou, Hua Qingxin, and Rong Ziruo.

“Everyone is here now.” Li Lanfeng smiled as he glanced at Ling Yi.

Ling Yi was stunned. He didn't know who betrayed him.

Yi Tiange was the calmest among the four people. When he saw Ling Yi and Tao Xiaotao in the meeting room, he frowned slightly. Then, he saluted and introduced himself. “Leaders, I'm Yi Tiange from the ZF team of the logisticians.” After introducing himself, he quickly nudged Rong Ziruo who was beside him. Luckily, Rong Ziruo reacted quickly. “Rong Ziruo!”

After being awakened by the introduction of their companions, Yan Wuyou and Hua Qingxin quickly saluted too. “Yan Wuyou!” “Hua Qingxin!”

“Reporting!” The four of them shouted simultaneously before putting their hands down. They stood upright in their position and waited for further instructions.

“There's no need to be nervous. We just want to understand some things.” Compared to Li Lanfeng, Yang Mingzhi was much gentler in his way of handling the newcomers. He pointed to the seats beside Ling Yi and said, “Please sit over there.”

“Yes, Leader Yang!” The four of them walked to their seats. Yi Tiange looked at Ling Yi but Ling Yi avoided his gaze. He didn't know if he could trust Yi Tiange.

He had the innate talent of distinguis.h.i.+ng everyone's real thoughts but why couldn't he see through his friends? Ling Yi's thoughts were in a mess.

Yi Tiange was stunned. He had never seen Ling Yi act like this before. He retracted his gaze as well as his thoughts.

“Let's continue.” Li Lanfeng didn't look at the four people. Instead, he spoke to the other team leaders.

The team leaders nodded in agreement. Li Lanfeng flipped to the next page before looking at Tao Xiaotao. “Were you alone when you sent the message?”

Tao Xiaotao thought about it carefully. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he shouted, “Everyone was there.”

Li Lanfeng looked at the four newcomers. “On that day, Tao Xiaotao sent a message out of the base. You were all beside him at that time, right?”

The four newcomers exchanged glances with one another. They carefully recalled what happened during that time. Yi Tiange replied for everyone, “Yan Wuyou, Tao Xiaotao, and I lived in one dormitory while Rong Ziruo and Hua Qingxin lived beside us. They will normally come to our dormitory to play. During that time, the four of us were indeed with him.

The other three people nodded.

“I'm sure that you've seen this video, right?” Li Lanfeng played the video again.

The four people were astounded to see the video. They understood why they were called here.

Yi Tiange looked at Ling Yi worriedly. Then, he nodded and said, “We've seen this video before. However, the ending is different. This video has been altered.”

“Yes. Someone used this video to slander our regiment commander for brutal murder. It was sent directly to the Disciplinary and Investigation Committee.” Li Lanfeng looked at Ling Yi intently. Ling Yi couldn't help but tremble. If he knew this would happen, he would never have recorded it.

“Based on what Ling Yi said, he only showed this video to the five of you. Hence, the only culprits are the five of you. The video was sent out through Tao Xiaotao's message to his family.” Li Lanfeng told them the truth.

Tao Xiaotao shouted quickly, “No, no. I just sent out a letter to my family. I didn't send any video.”

“This video is kept within the message. It pa.s.sed through the inspection of the mainframe and got leaked out successfully.” Li Lanfeng smirked. “It's obvious that one of you is an outstanding hacker.”

The five people looked at each other. They all seemed confused. Who was the hacker hiding among them?

Ling Yi's gaze changed again. He remembered his friend from the virtual world. Was he really his friend or was he an enemy in disguise?

“How about this? I hope that everyone can think carefully and see who is the most suspicious person. If we can't find the culprit, all of you will be kept in the base. This is to ensure the safety of everyone in the base.” Li Lanfeng calmly explained the outcome to them. “There is only one chance. Treasure it.”

Gu Dongyang frowned. He wanted to say something but Yang Mingzhi stopped him. Yang Mingzhi shook his head.

Gu Dongyang nodded. He remained patient and waited for the results.

The five young people started to hesitate. They looked at one another with uncertainty in their eyes.

Three minutes pa.s.sed. Li Lanfeng looked up. “I think that you've been given enough time. Please tell me your opinions now. Who seemed suspicious to you?”

He noticed that none of them wanted to speak so he looked at Yi Tiange. “You're Yi Tiange, right? You can start.”

A complicated expression flashed past Yi Tiange's face. He contemplated for a while before saying, “We knew each other in the Scout Academy. We've been friends for many years and worked hard together. We set the same goals and went through the same training. We're not blood-related siblings but we're closer than that. I can't believe that someone among us betrayed us. Leader Li, could it be that someone hacked into Ling Yi's optical supercomputer and copied that video? Then, the person framed Tao Xiaotao for sending the video.”

The other people felt hopeful after listening to what he said. They looked at Li Lanfeng in unplanned unison. They hoped that he agreed with what Yi Tiange had said.

Li Lanfeng shook his head in pity. “Our hacker confirmed it many times. This video was sent by one of you.”

“Did they make a mistake?” Ling Yi asked with hopes in his eyes. He really couldn't believe that one of his childhood friends betrayed him.

“Do you think a hacker who can control our enemy's signals will make a mistake?” Li Lanfeng scoffed.

Ling Yi was speechless. He remembered the scene when he fought with the Knight Ace Mecha Clan, and the hope in him diminished.
