Shi Lang took Cara back to the Den, where Amelia started to perform all the checks on her. The girl was very cooperative during the procedure and Zysha finally got herself peace when the spacesuit was taken off to show her resentment, she wed Shi Lang’s butt, however, did not injure him.
The young man took the data storage device given to him by Cara to the meeting room, Rosa, Quinn, and Jenkins was with him, along with Ameris. Besides them, one more person was present in the room. This person was ut.
The new director of the intelligence department. Jenkins asked, “Did you get the intel?”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “It is all inside this drive.”
He tossed a coin-like device to Jenkins, the young man nodded and ced it on a device attached to the side of the table. Soon, the center of the table was illuminated and it disyed clear data regarding the military strength and some crucial details such as weapons of mass destruction.
That was not all, they even received aplete set of methods to get around these things. Shi Lang suddenly fell into thought and leaned back in his chair. ut said, “This seems too good to be true.”
The others all nodded, after all, they were aware such a big pie dropping in theirp was not true. At least, it must have a prize behind it. Shi Lang nced at Rosa. She said, “There are a few aspects I would like to put forward.”
Shi Lang nodded, Rosa continued, “There are a few reasons behind this that would justify such detailsing into our control.
First, as Cara stated, their kin might be suffering there and are looking for this chance to take down the government.
Two, this data is fake. Trying to misguide the enemy. You know the usual false feeding tactic, pretend to be a pig when you are a tiger.
Three, now this is a real curveball but might as well state it, Cara may be ying us. She could be someone other than what she stated to be.”
Shi Lang asked, “Could it be that Zysha was fooled?”
Jenkins nodded and said, “It is possible, who knows if this kitten has any charm ability? Remember Tasha from school?”
Shi Lang sat up suddenly and said, “Then we are in a bind. I destroyed three ships in total, all in Neomonian territory.”
The people nodded, Quinn said, “The royal family of Arcadia seems to be a pride of lions, Captain.”
Shi Lang faced the girl, who bought up a holographic screen for them to see. She said, “I found this in the data, the family ledger of the royal family. Luckily they have the pictures of the people included. However, one interesting thing is…”
She tapped the table and the screen changed. Quinn said, “This part of the ledge is tempered.”
Shi Lang raised his eyebrow and asked, “Director ut, what do you have to say?”
ut was timid, but he was cunning, his timidity was a result of working under Chol, who never heard any of his advice and bullied men in the department. Well, she only cared about Abbey.
ut said, “The Arcadians do not wee us, Neomonians, or any other species from the surroundings. Even within their empire, it is hard to get in, the capital is reserved for the royal family and the courtiers. To get off one needs to be authorized by the king in person. Imagine the security and the chances of such a detail leaking out from under their noses? Until you are someone from the capital, it is impossible, because they do not even allow the armies posted all over the empire tomunicate, to suppress the chances of rebellion, lest the armies unite and turntables.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “You want us to investigate again?”
The man nodded, “More likely, interrogate the refugee. If as an outsider, I can be aware of the rules and regtions, then would she as a native be unaware?”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “I had a suspicion that is why I have Darcx monitor the girl.”
The people were surprised. Shi Lang shrugged his shoulders and said, “Do you think I am fool enough to let anyone waltz inside my safe house and let them go noticed?”
Shi Lang pressed the button on hismunicator and asked, “Status.”
Darcx’s voice sounded, “The girl is a piece of work.”
Shi Lang asked, “What do you mean?”
“Nine out of ten things she says are a lie,” said Darcx.
Shi Lang was surprised and asked, “How big is the chance to fool Zysha?”
Darcx said, “Not much, about this, I suggest that you clear it up with the big furball.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “Continue to monitor her.”
The people in the room all fell into contemtion of what truth was this girl hiding. Shi Lang stood up and said, “It is wasteful to sit here and loom. I will go check with Zysha and then we will confront this girl.”
Then he left the room. He came straight to the training area where Zysha was watching the few people from the queen’s snare train. Shi Lang stood beside her and said, “Why did you say that Cara was telling the truth?”
Zysha replied, “She was telling the truth when she said I was aware of her identity, that she had told me the truth.”
Shi Lang asked, “When were you going to tell me about this?”
Zysha said, “When you asked me. She is not a bad girl. You can trust her but she will need time to open up to you.”
Shi Lang said, “It will depend on her actions now, or I will send her back from where I found her.”
That said, he turned around and made his way to the infirmary, leaving behind Zysha, who sighed and shook her head, she thought, ‘You are on your own now, Cara.’
Shi Lang was a decisive person, he would not hesitate once he has made a decision. In the infirmary, Amelia was talking to Cara, she liked this human kitten. However, when she noticed the sudden change in the atmosphere, Amelia became vignt.
Shi Lang said, “Amy, leave us.”
Amelia could interpret the cold in his voice. She stood up and wanted to leave but then she asked, “Is everything alright?”
Shi Lang said, “Cara, or whatever her name is lied to us. If she did note clean about this, I will throw her back on that meteor.”
Amelia was stunned but she was aware that Shi Lang would do so. Cara heard this and her expression turned from amiable to cold. She red at Shi Lang and said, “How did you find it?”
Shi Lang noticed the change in her aura and temperament and said, “Do you think this is your royal court?”
Cara sat up as soon as he said this. This was a blind guess, but the reaction from the little one confirmed it. She bared her fangs at Shi Lang and asked, “How did you find out?”
Shi Lang smirked and said, “Be a nice kitty and tell me what is your real motive here?”
Cara hissed again and refused to talk. Shi Lang sighed and said, “If you really need help, then give up your pride. Otherwise, you can rule that rock where I picked you up from. Do not think that I will hesitate, either you will be thrown back at that rock, or I will kill you right here.”
With that said, Shi Lang took out his hand gun and aimed right at the little girl. Amelia was shocked, Shi Lang said, “I will not shelter a lier, who can cause the death of my brethren.”
Cara did not expect Shi Lang to be this decisive, she wanted to move, but the other party pressed the trigger lightly and a phasor beam hit the wall, barely missing the face of the little girl. Shi Lang said, “You can try moving, but I will put a hole in your face before you can move.”
Cara gulped down the mouthful of saliva and said, “I am willing to talk, please do not kill me.”
Her aura was restrained. Shi Lang said, “Talk, and everytime you tell a lie, I will make a hole in your body, and you will not die from it. Just so you know, I can tell when you are lying.”
Shi Lang was counting on Darcx, who was connected to him on themunicator. He will not speak until Cara has told a lie. The girl nodded and said, “I am not the daughter of the minister of intelligence, and neither is my race suffering those horrible things back at home. However, one thing was true.
The eldest prince took my mother, raped her, and then let her die in front of my eyes. His actions were not refuted by anyone, even the emperor, my biological father.”
Shi Lang was shocked, but since Darcx did not say anything, he said, “Continue.”
“That was four years ago, all because my mother was a feline race maid in the pce. The emperor was the first to defile her, as a result I was born. I was never given an official title, but I was given a tag by the so-called family, bastard. There were many names, wild seed, fruit of sin, mistake of the crown.
My mother named my Cara, after the moon of Arcadia, she told me to watch things calmly and wait for a day to retaliate, just like the moon will one day,e crashing down on the throne. So, I took a cleaner’s job and using the pity of others, I learned everything from the royal library. The rest of the years, I spent slowly gathering information, all sorts of information on everyone in the royal family, and the military Arcadia is so proud of.
I do not wish for the innocent to die, but the royal family and the capital of Arcadia, must vanish with everyone on it. If you did not do it, then you better kill me. I will do it myself in the future ande to kill you for dying me.”
The hatred she had for Arcadian royal family was justified. Shi Lang sighed and lowering his gun, he walked over to her. He sat down in front of her and said, “You really are the space cat, to free your people from the tyrant, you came to seek aid in the space.”
Cara raised her head, and her eyes were brimming with tears, Shi Lang patted her head gently and the girl threw her in his embrace, weeping out all the pain in her heart.
