Putnam brought something into Section S?

Li Zhuo was slightly stunned.

If it was someone else who brought something in, it would not make everyone so nervous, but Putnam was different.

That guy was a legendary killer known as a master of weapons. Any weapon in his hands would become very deadly.

It was not good news for such a person to bring something into Section S.

Li Zhuo was silent for a moment. He looked up at Armstrong and asked, “did you have a conflict with Putnam just now?”

Armstrong immediately said with an aggrieved tone when he heard Li Zhuo’s question. “Today, the four of us arrived at the restaurant first, and Putnam arrived later.”

“At that time, I saw that his arms were somewhat bulging, so I curiously asked him what he brought.”

“In the end, that guy completely ignored me and even bumped into me. The guy is barbaric!”

After describing what had just happened, Armstrong did not forget to insult Putnam. He seemed to be really angry.

After Li Zhuo heard this, he did not comfort Armstrong, but immediately closed his eyes.

At this moment, his mind was in complete darkness.

Li Zhuo was standing in the darkness. In front of him was a long ‘film’ that seemed to have no end.

This was the world in Li Zhuo’s mind. It had been in his mind for as long as he could remember.

In this world, Li Zhuo could freely access his memories. As long as Li Zhuo saw it, he would definitely not forget it, because he could flip through it at any time.

In the darkness, Li Zhuo reached out his hand, pressed down on the film in front of him, and gently fiddled with it.

The next moment, the world turned from darkness to the appearance of a restaurant.

As Li Zhuo fiddled with it, the image was still rapidly replaying.

An image appeared. It was Li Zhuo just pushing open the door and entering. At this point, Li Zhuo stopped fiddling and carefully looked at the image in front of him.

Putnam’s tall body took up 30% of the entire scene. Li Zhuo could even clearly see every strand of stubble on Putnam’s face.

The abdomen area of Putnam’s prison uniform did indeed look a little bulging as if something was really placed inside.

Li Zhuo slightly frowned and gently pressed the film and fiddled with it. Then, the scene in this world began to play at the speed that Li Zhuo fiddled with.

In the scene, Li Zhuo’s perspective subconsciously turned slightly from the front to look at Putnam.

Putnam’s gaze did not move at all. He looked straight ahead and then brushed past Li Zhuo.

Then, it was Li Zhuo who noticed Armstrong lying on the ground. Then, Li Zhuo looked back at Putnam’s back. Then nothing.

In Li Zhuo’s memory, only these fragments were related to Putnam.

He could only see Putnam’s abdomen for the first one second, and this one second was too short for him to see anything.

Then, Li Zhuo closed his eyes again, and the world in his mind returned to darkness.

When he opened his eyes again, Li Zhuo had already returned to the restaurant.

In other words, he had never left the restaurant. He had only sent his consciousness into the world in his mind.

The other people in the restaurant were looking at Li Zhuo at this time, as if waiting for him to speak.

Everyone knew that Li Zhuo’s memory was exceptionally good, so good that it made them feel that he wa incredible.

If it was Li Zhuo, perhaps he would be able to see something.

However, Li Zhuo shook his head helplessly. “I’m sorry, everyone. At that time, I saw too little and the time was too short. I’m not sure what was hidden in Putnam’s abdomen.”

“But what I can confirm is that there is indeed something hidden in his abdomen.”

Previously, it could be said that Armstrong had seen wrongly. It could even be said that everyone present had seen wrongly.

However, once Li Zhuo confirmed it, then there would be no mistake!

Everyone present fell silent. No one knew what exactly Putnam had brought into Section S.

At this moment, Li Zhuo opened his mouth and asked, “isn’t this a prison? Why can Putnam bring things in?”

“Do you still think this place is like a prison? Think about the remuneration I paid Wilson. In Section S, we can do whatever we want!” Armstrong said snappily. 

Li Zhuo was completely shocked.

Why could such a thing be said so confidently!!

In other words, this place really had nothing to do with a prison!

Holding back his desire to ridicule, Li Zhuo suggested. “If that’s the case, why don’t we go and talk to Wilson?”

“Maybe Wilson sent Putnam’s things in. Maybe he knows something.”

…

“Sorry, I don’t know.”

Wilson spread his hands innocently in front of everyone.

Armstrong walked over with an angry face, grabbed Wilson’s collar and warned, “don’t think of helping him lie to me. Don’t forget that I’m the one who paid for everything.”

Wilson looked at the angry Armstrong and felt helpless. “Mr. Armstrong, I really don’t know about this.”

“In fact, the thing you said didn’t pass through my hands. Mr. Putnam went out to bring it back last night.”

“Went out by himself?!” Li Zhuo looked at Armstrong and said. He was slightly stunned. “Can we get out of this prison?”

Hearing Li Zhuo’s question, Armstrong replied proudly. “Of course, I said we can do whatever we want in Section S. of course, we can go out whenever we want!”

Hearing this, Li Zhuo was completely shocked.

He had indeed overestimated Wilson’s professional ethics. It seemed that this place really had nothing to do with prison, except for the prison uniform that everyone was wearing.

“Is there any way to know where Putnam went last night?” Li Zhuo looked at Wilson and asked.

Wilson shook his head helplessly. “I don’t know. How would I dare to ask about what one of the big shots of Section S district is doing?”

Li Zhuo was speechless.

He had already joined Section S, and he felt that Wilson’s words were strange.

Li Zhuo waved his hand helplessly. “Alright, you can go back first. We’ll call you if there’s anything.”

“Okay, okay.” Wilson bowed and hurriedly opened the metal gate to leave Section S.

“As expected of Mr. Li. He seems to have become the core figure of Section S in just a few days… Mr. Li is indeed not simple.”

Wilson recalled Li Zhuo’s dominant position in this conversation and felt that it was a wise choice to be more polite to Li Zhuo.

While Li Zhuo was at his wit’s end in Section S, Alsop and the others suddenly turned to look at Li Zhuo.

Feeling everyone’s gaze, Li Zhuo was slightly stunned.

“Why are you all looking at me?”

Armstrong put on a mischievous smile and patted Li Zhuo’s shoulder.

“We all agree that you are the most suitable person to be the leader of our ‘investigation into what Putnam brought to Section S’!”
