As soon as He Wenjie mentioned Geng Jihui, He Lu knew her guess was correct. The man who looked so familiar to her was indeed He Wenjie. She desperately wanted to ask him if what he had done back in their home country was part of some special assignment, but she knew his concealment meant he was on a classified mission, so she swallowed all her questions and kept them to herself.
"I have a plan," He Wenjie said. "Make an example of someone to terrify the rest. Capture their chieftain, use force to suppress anyone who resists, and forcibly administer the medicine we brought. The pharmaceutical company has already brainwashed them countless times. If you want to reason with them, you'll just waste endless time, and time is something we don't have."
"No, we can't do that. That's the behavior of colonizers." The team members strongly opposed He Wenjie's plan, and even He Lu stayed silent. Helpless, He Wenjie knew they wouldn't change their minds until they truly faced danger. "Fine," he said. "My orders are to protect you, but if I encounter enemies even I cannot hold off, I will abandon you without a second thought. So you need to figure out which is more important: the mission, or upholding your moral bottom line."
