Sure, here is the translation:

As soon as the phone connected, Yu Ningxue directly said, ”Something happened to Elder Zong!”

Hearing the grave tone, Xiao Tian smiled faintly, though there was a trace of bitterness in his smile: ”Is there a problem with the DNA?”

”Yes!”

Yu Ningxue instinctively replied, and just as she was about to continue, she realized something was off in Xiao Tian’s words and asked in surprise, ”How did you know?”

”Because of Zhou Huchen, let’s tentatively call him that before we know his true identity.”

Xiao Tian explained, ”I only remembered this afterward, as for the flaw... the most obvious might be his physique!”

”Physique?”

On the other end of the phone, Yu Ningxue’s brow furrowed, indeed, Zhou Huchen’s thinness was the kind that was shockingly thin, and his fingers and other joints seemed longer and thinner than usual.

”This might be because he’s practiced some sort of Bone Shrinking Skill.” Xiao Tian said, ”Think about it, if someone has even altered their appearance and physique, you might as well say he’s become an entirely new person!”

Yu Ningxue, somewhat confused, said, ”Even if the appearance and physique have completely changed, can blood type, DNA, and fingerprints change as well?”

Listening to Yu Ningxue’s incredulous tone, the speculation Xiao Tian had in the training hall resurfaced, although he couldn’t be sure at that time that his guess was correct.

Moreover, Xiao Tian’s speculation did seem like something out of a horror story, warranting suspicion.

Most crucially, Xiao Tian had no way of knowing what method the other side used to change all those things thought to be unchangeable.

As for Xiao Tian’s speculation, well, changing DNA isn’t entirely out of the question, didn’t Ghost Face attempt to crack the Genetic Lock?

Since one person could do it, it’s unwise to exclude the possibility of others doing it too. Secret Techniques that seem impossible, like peering into others’ memories through objects, may sound unlikely, yet Xiao Tian could indeed do it.

However, such techniques cannot be explained externally and can only be buried as secrets.

Looking back now, maybe that’s the reason why they’re called Secret Techniques, isn’t it?!

After a while, Xiao Tian finally said, ”I’m not quite sure about this either, but I’m certain that altering genes is indeed possible!”

Just as he finished speaking, he heard Yu Ningxue gasp loudly over the phone: ”How... how is this possible?”

Xiao Tian replied, ”Do you remember the Secret Technique I told you about?”

Yu Ningxue remained silent for a long time, then asked, ”Even if we assume Zhou Huchen really changed his genes, is there any way to find out his true identity?”

”Not for now, but when I meet Ghost Face, he might have a way.” Xiao Tian steered the conversation back: ”You mentioned something happened to Elder Zong, what was it?”

Hearing Xiao Tian’s question, Yu Ningxue couldn’t help but laugh bitterly: ”According to Zhou Huchen’s DNA report, he has more than 99.99% genetic similarity to Elder Zong.”

Xiao Tian was flabbergasted: ”So, Elder Zong has captured his own son?!”

”That’s what most people believe,” Yu Ningxue said. ”After all, the clear report is right in front of us, how can anyone not believe it?”

”However, the news is currently only circulating among the top levels of the Qing Province Public Security Bureau, and there has been an order to seal it.”

Yu Ningxue rubbed her forehead and said, ”We’ve already started the second DNA reinspection. Although this time the test will be much more detailed and will take longer, I estimate that if we don’t quickly prove that Elder Zong and Zhou Huchen are unrelated, the news will leak sooner or later!”

”Then I’ll hurry to find Ghost Face, as for Elder Zong...” Xiao Tian sighed, ”It seems the old man will have to be wronged for a while!”

Xiao Tian thought for a moment and added, ”If worse comes to worst, suggest Elder Zong just acknowledges it. He can also gain a reputation for being just and selfless, unclouded by personal matters of right and wrong!”

Yu Ningxue replied annoyedly, ”Elder Zong is almost driven mad with anxiety, and you’re still joking!”

Of course, Yu Ningxue understood that Xiao Tian’s seemingly serious words held a significant amount of jest.

If Zong Jian indeed acknowledged Zhou Huchen, then many things would become convoluted, like why did the previous DNA not match the current one?

Additionally, why did Zong Jian arrange for his ’son’ to conceal his identity and serve as a special operations instructor, and with what intentions?

These questions, in the mouth of someone with ulterior motives, could ruin Zong Jian’s reputation, leaving him with eternal infamy!

Given Zong Jian’s previous impersonal style, such an outcome seems almost guaranteed.

But, until the second DNA report provides new evidence disproving any relationship between Zhou Huchen and Zong Jian, it seems Zong Jian will have to suffer undeserved blame for a while!

Though the cause of the incident was Zong Jian’s strong insistence on having Xiao Tian and others observe the special operations team’s training, the old man had no malicious intent, so one can’t just stand by as the situation escalates.

Yet, helping Zong Jian clear his name hinges on Xiao Tian finding Ghost Face, so the immediate priority is searching for Ghost Face and Lin Bingxuan.

Looking at the towering majestic mountains, Xiao Tian’s gaze was resolute as he confidently started walking forward.

Kunlun, here I come!

——

At this moment, Wang Bin, lying in the hospital, finally lost his composure. Two days had passed since Wang Tianpei left, and even the bald head sent a day ago hadn’t returned like a stone sinking into the sea.

By now, even a fool would sense something was amiss.

”Someone!”

Wang Bin’s shout brought his men rushing in: ”Bin!”

”Is there any news on Mr. Bald?” Wang Bin asked with little hope, already suspecting the answer.

”Since Mr. Bald took two brothers to pick up Pei, there’s been no news. We’ve called him over a hundred times, but no one answers.”

Someone added, ”Ten minutes ago, Mr. Bald’s phone was turned off!”

”Why didn’t you tell me?” Wang Bin roared in anger, ”You couldn’t take two steps to inform me?!”

”Bin, it’s not that we didn’t want to tell you, but...” the speaker hadn’t finished when a newsflash aired on the TV.

”Now interrupting with an urgent news bulletin, a tourist falls incident occurred on the outskirts of Qing Province city, with four bodies found at the foot of the cliff. The detailed characteristics are...”

On the wall-mounted LCD TV, the gentle female anchor slowly read the news script, leaving Wang Bin shocked.

The outskirts? Isn’t that where he lived?

And four bodies?

He had sent out precisely four people at various times, could it be...?
