After finishing his call with Wang Defa, Qin Siyang couldn't help but smile in satisfaction.
At the start of the semester, only Wang Dezhong had awakened a Sequence.
Yet after just three or four days, all four of them had awakened.
Wang Defa and Wang Deyou awakening their Sequences had been within expectations. After all, they had already trained for over half a month, and more than ten days had passed since Wang Dezhong awakened his own Sequence.
But She Haoqiang's Sequence awakening genuinely surprised him.
After She Haoqiang went to Area 14121 to deal with Du Wei's family, he went into hiding and fled. With Wang Defa's assistance, he returned to District 7.
And after only a few days traveling with the Wang brothers, he awakened a Sequence.
Qin Siyang couldn't tell whether it was She Haoqiang's luck or his own.
He then called Qian Wenzhao over to the interrogation room for another meeting.
The moment Qian Wenzhao arrived, his face was full of irritation.
"Little Qin, I'm busy writing reports right now. That's our top priority at the moment. Whatever it is, can't it wait a couple of days? I don't have three heads and six arms."
"Old Qian, it's just a small matter. Help me forge Sequences for three people."
Qian Wenzhao's triangular eyes narrowed even more unhappily.
"You called me out separately for something this minor? Back when I was section chief, I could've handled this for you myself. Now you could just grab anyone and get it done."
"I just got to District 7. I don't know who can be trusted, so I had no choice but to ask you for help. Mainly because these three people are pretty close to me."
"Close to you?"
"Yeah. The kind where our fates are tied together."
Qian Wenzhao frowned and thought for a moment.
"Then it's best not to register them in District 7. This place is crawling with all kinds of people. Even taking a piss feels like there are countless eyes watching you. I'm new here too, so I'm still feeling my way across the river. There's no guarantee I won't screw it up for you."
"How about this, I've got reliable connections in Area 4397. Have them find a way to get to the Administration Bureau over there. I can arrange everything."
"Area 4397? That's really far away. The three of them don't necessarily need to go personally, right? Can it be handled remotely or through someone else?"
"The risks of remote registration are even higher than handling it in District 7."
"Alright, got it."
"I'm going back to work. If it's not urgent, wait until after I submit these reports."
Qian Wenzhao straightened his collar and left once again.
Meanwhile, Qin Siyang began considering the matter of sending the Wang brothers to Area 4397 to register their Sequences.
The three of them had absolutely no records in Area 4397. Registering out of nowhere would make it very easy for people to investigate their backgrounds.
They needed proper identities fabricated first.
At the very least, they had to avoid attracting attention before they accomplished anything.
The Zhao family could definitely help with something like this.
But Qin Siyang remembered Chu Xiaoang once saying that members with Zhao family ties couldn't be mixed into his Sequence Corps, otherwise it would violate the rules established by the major legions.
If the Zhao family helped fabricate backgrounds for the Wang brothers and the matter leaked out, it might ruin his plans.
After thinking it over, Qin Siyang decided the one who tied the knot should untie it.
So he dialed Chu Xiaoang's number.
"Commander Chu, hello, this is Qin Siyang!"
["Oh, Student Little Qin. What is it?"]
"It's like this, I have a few candidate officers for my Sequence Corps, and I'd like to arrange background identities for them in Area 4397. I was wondering whether Commander Chu might be willing to help?"
["Help? I'm a legion commander. My connections inside the Safe Zone may not be much broader than yours, brat. How exactly do you expect me to help?"]
"I'd like to trouble you to dispatch a company to Area 4397 on assignment. Naturally, my four battalion commander candidates would be among them."
["Little Qin, you really have thought this through. You even planned out what I should do for you."]
"Hehe! I just didn't want to trouble Commander Chu too much."
["I can agree to that, no problem. I don't need any payment from you either. You just need to answer one question."]
"Go ahead."
["Hong Liang, Jiao Zhijie, and Dadova, did all three of their disappearances have something to do with you?"]
Qin Siyang didn't answer immediately. Instead, he considered whether there was some hidden trap in Chu Xiaoang's question.
It wasn't the first or second time Chu Xiaoang had tried setting him up.
So he merely answered cautiously, "They did all meet me before they disappeared."
["You little brat,"] Chu Xiaoang laughed and cursed lightly before continuing, ["With that answer, I more or less understand the situation. Tomorrow, a Sequence company will depart from the legion and head to Area 4397 on assignment. Also, send me the information on the officer candidates you want arranged. But how they reach Area 4397 without arousing suspicion. that part is your responsibility."]
"Alright! Thank you, Commander Chu."
———
After hanging up, Chu Xiaoang's gaze darkened.
Beside him, Zheng Mubian asked, "Commander, what are you thinking about? Wondering how to explain yourself if the other legion commanders find out you helped Qin Siyang?"
"The hell do I need to explain to them? My own Sequence roster, I'll give positions to whoever I want. I'm just thinking about something else. Hong Liang, Jiao Zhijie, and Dadova, those three Sequence Level Six users who were labeled as 'missing'... if they're dead, how many of them were killed by Qin Siyang?"
Zheng Mubian analyzed the matter.
"If you ask me, there was never any disappearance to begin with. Outside the Safe Zone, someone disappearing still leaves the possibility they might return alive. But inside the Safe Zone, where the place is barely bigger than the palm of your hand, 'disappearance' is just a cover for their deaths."
Chu Xiaoang nodded, "That makes sense. If that's the case, then all three deaths are connected to Qin Siyang. Has this kid already reached Sequence Level Six? That's way too fast."
"It really is unbelievably fast. He awakened his Sequence in January, and by September he's already Sequence Level Six. But Commander, if Qin Siyang wasn't Sequence Level Six, then there's no way he could've killed two different Sequence Level Six enemies in battle."
"True. When you're facing level suppression, surviving is already difficult enough, never mind killing someone," Chu Xiaoang sighed, "Baxing originally planned to advance to Sequence Level Six at the start of next year. I wonder if he'll feel pressured now."
"Pressure is good. Baxing's greatest strength has always been turning pressure into motivation."
"Forget about him. Children and grandchildren will have their own fortunes. We should focus on managing our own affairs. Old Zheng, that idiot giant Qin Yingguang has been chatting me up every few days lately. I can't tell what he's scheming. Help me figure it out."
"Isn't it obvious? Old Master Qi's health is failing. The military legions inside the Safe Zone are about to undergo another major reshuffle. Commander Qin wants to stand on the same side as you and seize greater benefits."
"But why come to me? He and Scarface Yan were classmates and comrades-in-arms. Their relationship should be much closer than ours."
"If I had to guess, Commander Qin has his eye on Baxing."
"His eye on Baxing?", Chu Xiaoang frowned, "That big oaf Qin wants to marry his precious daughter to my dumb son?"
Zheng Mubian nodded, "Among the descendants of all the legion commanders, Baxing is the only sole heir. If you ask me, Commander Qin is also using this opportunity to buy insurance for his daughter."
Chu Xiaoang rubbed his stubble thoughtfully, "That giant Qin's daughter... I remember having a pretty good impression of her. If she married Baxing... well, I suppose it wouldn't be impossible."
