Rebirth Counterattack: I Heard That the Imperial Marshal Has a Crush on Me

“Well, who is that person?” Chu Muxi asked.

Roy kept his mouth shut and stared at him in silence.

“It’s too late for you to keep quiet now. Of course, you don’t have to tell me. A fake leader is merely a puppet. There’s no need for me to continue talking to you. I’ll call Adjutant Zhou; they’ll handle the interrogation,” Chu Muxi said, turning to leave.

“…Wait!” Roy panicked.

Previously, because he was the leader of the organization, Adjutant Zhou insisted on giving a certain degree of respect to the enemy leader. But if he was just a puppet, that respect was no longer necessary.

Roy had anticipated this. That was why he insisted from the beginning on not talking directly to Zhou Xu and the others. He needed to see Lu Junzhi.

Because someone told him that if he only spoke about Lu Junzhi, those people wouldn’t easily harm him.

They all said that the Deep Space Fleet, unlike other military personnel, would not abuse others even if it ultimately faced destruction.

But now, after persevering for a day, he didn’t see Lu Junzhi; instead, he waited for someone related to Lu Junzhi.

“Do you want to talk?” Chu Muxi asked leisurely, his face betraying the importance of the information he sought.

Roy cleared his throat. “Untie me, and I’ll talk—I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”

“Oh~” Chu Muxi’s gaze withdrew from the knife, still with some regret.

Roy thought, this man was so good-looking, but he was so cruel.

“There are people on Central Star working with the Allies, secretly trading information about the Deep Space Fleet.”

Chu Muxi clenched his fists, but his face remained calm. “You mean they want to attack the Deep Space Fleet?”

The Deep Space Fortress was the last and most crucial line of defines for the empire. Even though the alliance was at war, sending hundreds of warships, Lu Junzhi would be immediately informed if they went to battle. Even if the troops stationed in the other two galaxies were useless, once they reached the Deep Space Fortress, Lu Junzhi would never allow them to advance further.

However, if the enemy colluded with the empire’s upper echelons and obtained the maps and jump points for the other galaxies, they could bypass the garrison troops and launch a surprise attack on the Deep Space Fortress.

“Who is it?” Chu Muxi asked in a low voice.

Roy glanced at him. “Can you really speak for Lu Junzhi?”

“I’m standing right in front of you,” Chu Muxi said, staring at him.

Roy swallowed quietly and whispered, “It could be to get information out of me.”

“If you keep talking like this—”

“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!” Roy pressed his lips together. “Yes, it’s a Major General in the First Army.”

“What’s his name?” Chu Muxi asked. Hearing “First Army” triggered a guess, but he still asked Roy.

Roy’s eyes flashed. “His name is Sun Hong.”

Chu Muxi thought, So Sun Hong was involved. They really would do anything for their own interests, even betraying the empire. He even tried to frame Lu Junzhi!

If the Allied forces were to appear at the Deep Space Fortress undetected, no matter how the Deep Space Fleet reacted, they would be held accountable.
