Chapter 238 Watching a Show

Meros looked up at the woman who had spoken and realized that it was Ye Qingwan, the woman who had greeted them when they first arrived.

"Ah, it's Mr. Meros! Long time no see. How have you been lately?"

Ye Qingwan walked slowly with light yet firm steps.

When her gaze fell upon Meros, the fierce, fiery look in her eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a gentle, elegant, and serene smile.

After hearing her speak, Meros turned his gaze to Ye Qingwan, and a sense of surprise welled up in his heart.

Indeed, they had not seen each other for a long time, and Ye Qingwan in front of them had changed drastically compared to how she looked in their memories.

The first thing that catches the eye is that Ye Qingwan's signature beautiful long wavy hair is gone, replaced by a clean and neat short haircut.

This short hair not only showcases her decisiveness and courage, but also highlights her delicate facial features.

Looking at her skin again, it was no longer as fair and delicate as mutton fat jade in the past, but instead showed a vibrant, healthy wheat color, radiating a charming glow.

At this moment, Ye Qingwan was wearing a smart black combat uniform that tightly hugged her slender and agile figure, making every movement appear nimble and powerful.

What's even more eye-catching is that she wears a black cloak embroidered with a fiery red phoenix pattern, which flutters gently in the breeze, resembling a burning flame and creating a strong visual impact.

The phoenix design is the emblem of the squad she leads.

What is most striking is the resolute expression on Ye Qingwan's face.

Her slightly upturned lips revealed confidence and composure, and her bright eyes shone with a determined light, as if no difficulty could defeat her.

She exudes an unparalleled cool charm that captivates everyone.

"That's good. Are you here today to cooperate with this incident as well?"

Melos glanced at Louis, who was gritting his teeth beside him, ignored him, and casually asked Ye Qingwan a question.

"Yes, because the higher-ups were worried that the Lingye Squad was short-handed, they transferred our squad over."

Ye Qingwan pulled up the chair closest to Louis and sat down. She acted as if she didn't see Louis at all, but she still kept him in her sight.

"Stop! [○?｀Д′? ○]"

Ye Qingwan, who had been speaking gently to Meros, immediately scolded Louis sternly after seeing him trying to sneak away again.

“(⊙o⊙)…Um, well, I'll go get you guys some food…”

Louis originally wanted to sneak away while Meros and Ye Qingwan were chatting, but he was discovered as soon as he moved, and could only dejectedly come up with a clumsy excuse.

"Could your excuse be any more lame, huh?"

Ye Qingwan spoke fiercely, gesturing for Louis to look at the snacks piled high on the table.

These snacks were sent by Louis and his employees.

His employees had a good impression of the psychic center, especially since Lingye and his team had rescued them from the slums more than a year ago. So they would use the excuse of delivering supplies to visit them more often, and they were also worried that the psychic center might not have enough to eat.

"Um, well, okay, you win, I won't run away anymore."

Louis looked left and right, glancing at Meros beside him with an air of anticipation, then at Ye Qingwan on his right with a serious expression. Finally, he sighed helplessly and gave up on his plan to slip away.

"Alright, you sit here quietly, I'll settle the score with you later."

Ye Qingwan glared at him again before looking at Moros.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Meros, you must have found this amusing."

Ye Qingwan spoke sincerely to Molos.

"It's alright. Ask me anything you want, just hurry up."

Seeing that there was nothing more to see, and not wanting to waste any more time, Melos realized his baby should be waking up soon and he needed to hurry back.

"Ok."

Ye Qingwan organized her thoughts and then picked up some of the data that the technicians had just compiled.

"We're here to investigate the issue of Fei Bo that you mentioned. We want to know what kind of person he really is?"

Ye Qingwan took a breath and asked.

"He's just an extreme racist. We've never encountered an intelligent race so similar to us during our previous expansions. You are the first we've met."

Meros thought for a moment and then said.

"During the vote at the meeting, he led a small group that advocated for direct, violent colonization of you. But don't worry, we don't have a parliamentary system like you humans, where you have to vote. We're more like your human monarchical era, where might makes right. So I didn't agree, and that's the end of it."

Melos gave a brief explanation, and noticing that Ye Qingwan was visibly nervous when he mentioned colonization, he offered an explanation to avoid wasting time.

"Okay, okay. Thank you very much."

Ye Qingwan's eyes lit up with surprise upon hearing this. She stood up and led the members of the two teams to bow solemnly to Moros to express their gratitude.

Yes, because the questions being asked were very serious, all the teams were actually listening attentively to the conversation between Moros and Ye Qingwan.

"No need, ask me any other questions quickly, my baby is about to wake up."

Meros waved his hand dismissively, glanced at the time, and then spoke.

"Um, we'd also like to know roughly how capable Fei Bo is. I know this is presumptuous, but please, if you really can't tell us, that's fine too. We just want to know so we can have an expectation."

Ye Qingwan said this, and if she were to put it seriously, it could be said that if Meros had told her, he could have been called a traitor.

"It's nothing, none of them can beat me."

Melos understood Ye Qingwan's words. Although he didn't care much about it, he was still satisfied with their actions.

"His abilities are actually quite average; his offensive power is weak, and he can't even beat Earl. However, he's very good with words, his eyes can see through many people, and he's also very good at manipulating people's minds. If you look closely, you'll find that almost all the things we've discovered are achieved by exploiting human weaknesses."

Meros said this, his words full of disdain.

Their alien race reveres the strong, and those who do not strive to improve their own strength but instead manipulate human nature are considered a disgrace to them.

However, Meros himself was also very adept at manipulating human nature; politics is something almost every intelligent being does.

It's just a matter of how sophisticated the person manipulating things is.
