The crowd was silent for a moment, then began to get noisy.

"No way? Zhai Yifan, as the base commander of the Apollo base, actually did something that would harm the development of the base."

"To be honest, I'm not surprised. Just from spending a few days with him, I feel that this Chief Zhai is a selfish person."

"There are many selfish people in this world nowadays. It's just that this person is the base commander of the Apollo base, which is why everyone is so surprised."

"That's right. If it was an ordinary member, everyone would just think he was selfish, but they wouldn't be so surprised."

But no matter what, it has been confirmed that Zhai Yifan forcibly took the evolutionary fluid from other members.

Faced with the accusations of more than 20 people, Zhai Yifan still wanted to defend himself.

"You said it was me, what evidence do you have? You can't just rely on your words, right? Rumors hurt people, are you trying to kill me?"

With just one sentence, a big hat was put on these twenty-something people.

This also made the twenty or so people a little anxious.

The first dark and thin member who stood up hurriedly explained: "Base Commander, we never intended to harm you. It's just that facing everyone's questioning, we had to stand up and tell the truth!"

The fat member also echoed: "Yes, Base Commander, please don't accuse us of such a serious crime, we can't afford it!"

Casting angry eyes at the two, Zhai Yifan said sternly: "Then you should produce evidence!"

He doesn't believe it!

He found these people privately, exchanged money for goods, and left no evidence or clues. As long as he did not admit it, these people could not do anything to him.

Seeing that these twenty-odd people were silent, Zhai Yifan's eyes flashed with pride, and he snorted coldly: "I believe I have never treated you unfairly, but I don't know why you have united to slander me and even implicate Miss Lu!"

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Lu Xinyi, pretending to be apologetic: "Ms. Lu, this matter is an internal conflict of our base. I am really sorry for involving you. I hope you will not have a prejudice against our base because of this matter."

"If possible, I hope Miss Lu can continue to do business with our base."

Lu Xinyi looked at him with a half-smile and said calmly, "I have my own plans on who to trade with, so I won't bother you, Director Zhai."

These words made the guilty look on Zhai Yifan's face freeze, and a sense of displeasure welled up in his heart.

He had said so much, but Lu Xinyi was so disrespectful to him. Wasn't this a slap in his face?

But it doesn't matter, he still has the two hundred evolution liquids he exchanged last night, so it doesn't matter even if Lu Xinyi no longer trades with the Apollo Base.

However, in this way, his supernatural powers cannot be improved too quickly, otherwise, it will only arouse everyone's suspicion.

And now-

"It seems that this matter still makes Miss Lu feel resentful."

Zhai Yifan sighed regretfully and turned to look at the twenty or so people in front of him.

"If you are dissatisfied with me because of my leadership mistakes and therefore slander me in public in order to embarrass me, I admit it." He said with a look of self-blame, "It was I who proposed the attack on City M. In the past few days, our group has made many sacrifices. It is normal for you to have opinions about me. I am indeed a poor leader."

With these words, he directly defined the incident as retaliation against him by others. However, he acted broad-minded and generous, not caring about the other party, and put himself in the position of the victim.

But these words made the twenty-odd people, as well as the remaining one hundred or so victims in the crowd who did not stand up, feel dissatisfied.

They were clearly the victims, so how come they are now the perpetrators and are the ones who want to harm Zhai Yifan?

It's true that I haven't gotten into any trouble yet, so I don't know whether the other person is a human or a ghost!

"Base Commander, you are very eloquent. We can't argue with you."

A tall and thin man with a black mole the size of a green bean on the tip of his nose walked out of the crowd.

The man with the black mole looked at Zhai Yifan with displeasure and said angrily, "You don't have to portray yourself as a victim, because we never thought of harming you. It's you who harmed our interests, and we are the victims."

Seeing that Zhai Yifan wanted to refute, he continued: "Don't you want evidence? I have evidence!"

Zhai Yifan was panicked when he heard this, but he remained calm on the surface. He said in a cold voice: "You have evidence? Then why don't you show it to everyone and let everyone see whether I have harmed your interests or not."

Tu Hanyu, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but say, "Do you really have evidence? You have to think it through first. The person standing in front of you is the commander of our Apollo Base."

There was a hint of threat in his words, but the man with the mole was not afraid.

In front of everyone, he took out a recorder from his trouser pocket and said, "I found this recorder by accident when we were sweeping the city two days ago. When the base commander found me last night, I was fiddling with it."

Hearing this, Zhai Yifan's face suddenly froze, and he felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. He wanted to rush up and snatch the recorder.

"The recorder is indeed a good thing." Lu Xinyi, who was watching the show silently, suddenly chuckled and said, "Can I take a look?"

The man with the mole handed the recorder to Lu Xinyi without hesitation.

Seeing the recorder in Lu Xinyi's hands, Zhai Yifan became furious.

This is an internal conflict in their base. Why would she, Lu Xinyi, interfere?

Now that the recorder was in Lu Xinyi's hands, how could he ask Lu Xinyi to hand it over?

Lu Xinyi glanced at Zhai Yifan calmly, noticed his angry reaction, and gave a slightly mocking sneer.

“Let’s all listen to what’s recorded in this recorder.” Lu Xinyi said loudly and pressed the play button on the recorder.

After the crackling sound of electricity, the voice of the man with the black mole talking to himself was heard, saying some trivial words.

Like how many zombies you killed today, how you feel, etc.

Seeing that they were all trivial matters, Lu Xinyi pressed the fast-forward button until——

"Captain, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I want to exchange fifty crystal cores for a bottle of evolution liquid."

"But--"

"I'm the base commander. Don't you listen to me? Besides, I used fifty crystal cores to exchange with you, and you earned thirty crystal cores for nothing. Did I treat you unfairly?"

"I--"

"Don't worry, as long as you exchange the evolutionary fluid with me, I promise that I will never treat you unfairly in the future."

After playing to this point, Lu Xinyi pressed the stop button.

The scene was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone looked at Zhai Yifan with a gloomy and ugly expression in shock and astonishment.

This is really a case of coercion and inducement!

Lu Xinyi also turned her gaze to Zhai Yifan and said slowly, "Captain Zhai, are you satisfied with this evidence?"
