Chapter 195: Starlight, the Traitor Who Has Been Lurking for a Long Time in Walter

"You have no evidence to prove that it was me, you can't do this." Xingguang's face flushed red, and the strong feeling of suffocation made her feel difficult to breathe.

"Do you think I need evidence?"

Homelander's expression became more and more ferocious. As his arm gradually exerted force, Xingguang soon showed an extremely painful expression, "Please stop, the person in the video is really not me."

She reached out and grabbed Homelander's arm, trying to untie the restraints, but how could her strength compare to Homelander's.

"Okay, let her go, she is still useful. If you kill her directly like this, it will be difficult for us to explain to the people." Unexpectedly, the person who pleaded for Xingguang was Storm Girl.

"Jervis, you should announce to the outside world now that the person who stole Compound No. 5 has been found. That person is Starlight from the Seven. She colluded with terrorists privately and sold Water's internal intelligence and Compound No. 5, but was eventually discovered by me and the people of my country. Although we find this incredible, we have decided to temporarily detain her in the Water Building out of a sense of responsibility to the public.

After everything is cleared up, the details will be announced to the public."

Due to the recent frequent appearance of super terrorists, many people have pointed the finger at Water Company, believing that it was Water who took the initiative to spread Compound No. 5 and maliciously created super terrorists.

If at this time, it is announced that Starlight is Water's long-hidden traitor, it will not only guide the anger of the masses, but also let Starlight bear the blame, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

"No problem, I will announce it as soon as possible."

Xia Shang nodded.

"In that case, I will let you go for now." Homelander slowly loosened his hands, and saw that on Xingguang's snow-white neck, two deep red palm prints were clearly visible. As soon as she was freed from the restraints, she was like a fish on the shore, breathing rapidly.

"Follow me."

Then, Homelander took Xingguang to the 42D floor, where there was a room dedicated to imprisoning superhumans. The whole room was made of cast steel, and the wall thickness was as high as two meters, which could basically isolate all superpowers. It was extremely dim inside, with only some light strips emitting weak light.

After Homelander took off the light strips, it was pitch black inside. He knew that Xingguang's superpowers could absorb the surrounding electricity, so he deliberately ordered people to turn off the room switch.

"Three days, I will give you three days. If I don't get any valuable information from you after three days, you will be prepared to stay here for the rest of your life." Homelander, standing outside, pressed the button on the wall expressionlessly.

I saw a heavy iron door slowly swallowing up the light in front of Xingguang's eyes.

At the same time.

On the other side.

Huey was slumped on the sofa in the lamplighter's villa, watching some movies that are good for health with the lamplighter.

"Pick the ones you like." The lamplighter bent down and took out a cardboard box from under the coffee table, which was full of various discs.

"Homelander vs. Seven Female Gangsters? Or this, The Invisible Man and His Invisible Tool?"

"You actually collected so many movies about superheroes?!"

Huey was simply eye-opening. He flipped through them casually, including Queen Maeve's Passionate Years, Young Black Riding a Cart, Starlight Under Duress, and The Deep Sea and His Ocean Friends.

"Storm in a coma, the gift crab, isn't she the superhero that Walter just launched?" Huey was shocked.

The lamplighter said that this was all routine operations, "You always have to believe in the speed of the producer. By the way, I have the entire series of Storm. This is a collector's edition, and I usually don't take it out easily."

"Forget it, just this one." Fortunately, Huey didn't have entanglement, otherwise he would waste an entire afternoon just choosing movies.

"Do you usually live on these?"

"Congratulations, you guessed it right." The lamplighter shrugged his shoulders, "I'll reward you with another movie."

Then Huey asked again: "How did you get away with the matter of the Sage Grove? And since you know that Walter is using adults for human experiments, why don't you go to the hearing the day after tomorrow and identify Walter at the meeting. This is your only chance to atone for your sins."

The reason why he stayed at the lamplighter's house was to persuade the lamplighter to testify against Walter in court, so as to bring Walter down directly.

As for Billy and the others, they were also preparing for the hearing the day after tomorrow. Billy returned home because he received a call from his mother and met his abusive father. If his father hadn't abused his brother, his brother would not have chosen to commit suicide, so when the two met again, they were very unhappy.

Breastmilk followed Mallory to find Dr. Wogelbaum and tried to persuade Wogelbaum to attend the hearing the day after tomorrow, but was decisively rejected by Wogelbaum. What a joke, Edgar had already closely monitored Wogelbaum. Unless he didn't care about the lives of his family, how could he agree to Mallory's request?

"Let me think about it again." The lamplighter neither refused nor accepted.

…………

Early the next morning, Ashley found Xia Shang with a document in her hand: "Since we announced that Starlight is a traitor, Twitter has exploded. Currently, the first hot search on Twitter is 'Starlight, the traitor who has been lurking for a long time in Walter'

In addition, there are millions of tweets supporting the legalization of Compound No. 5. Mr. Edgar is very satisfied with this, but the hearing the day after tomorrow is a big trouble. He is considering whether to send you to preside over the situation."

Xia Shang's fingers on the keyboard paused slightly, "He plans to let me come forward to fight against that Congressman Newman? Are you sure?"

"Mr. Edgar didn't specify that he wanted you to come over."

"I see."

After pressing the shutdown button on the computer, Xia Shang opened the panel. The fusion progress is now 89%. Next, he has to consider whether to obtain superpowers from Homelander, but he doesn't want to expose himself so quickly. Maybe he can work hard on the movie.

It should be reasonable to arrange a powerful enough villain. I believe Homelander will not give him a face.

As for the superpowers of Starlight and others, Xia Shang doesn't want to start for the time being. Their superpowers are not strong, especially after he merged with Storm's superpowers. Ordinary superpowers are not very helpful to him, unless they are some special superpowers, such as telekinesis. He can merge similar superpowers and make them merge with each other.

Ding! Xia Shang walked out of the elevator and pushed open the door of the president's office.

"Mr. Edgar, you are looking for me?"

Edgar, who was behind the desk, put down the pen in his hand when he heard Xia Shang's voice, "I called you here to participate in the hearing the day after tomorrow. I have arranged your position. You will sit next to Homelander."
