Ye Shen was stunned into silence.
”Other than that, haven't you considered the curious coincidence that both of our fathers appeared in City T 30 years ago and disappeared 12 years ago?”
”…”
”What you have is a very small piece of the puzzle.”
Ye Shen's face drooped.
Xinghe laughed. ”Therefore, the truth might not be as what you said. Before finding out all the information, every theory is mere speculation, including yours!”
”No, you're wrong!” Ye Shen's eyes bored into her. ”Pops would not lie to me, he has taken the spaceship and left Earth!”
”Let's just assume you're right, could it be that he left for a reason other than the end of the world? A doomsday prophecy is nothing new and maybe he found out some new information to confirm its validity or it was something else completely. However, I believe they did stumble upon something important and I will get to the bottom of it. If you want to know the actual truth, then you have to cooperate with me, so now tell me, where is your energy crystal?”
Ye Shen chuckled darkly. ”I will not tell you this no matter what. This is my last bargaining chip, I will give it to you when the end of the world arrives. You want it now? Impossible.”
”So uncooperative?” Xinghe smirked. ”I don't believe in this doomsday stuff. If you refuse to tell me, then be prepared to stay here forever.”
”I don't mind staying in here for a while longer because you will eventually come around. Not to mention, I have in my hands the energy crystal you need,” Ye Shen said confidently.
Xinghe stared at him coldly. ”Fine, then be prepared to rot in here for the entirety of your life!”
To be perfectly honest, she didn't intend to let him out in the first place. With the trade broken, Xinghe turned to leave. However, she did inform the police to send Ye Shen back to his usual jail cell, and save him from the fate of sharing a cell with sodomites. He did give her some information; she was only being fair.
