Armor: Shura appears at the beginning

Chapter 195: Get it back

"Old Ke, is this just my illusion?" Ma Tian leaned back in his chair, looking at Ke Guolong sharply, with a questioning tone in his voice.

"I noticed that you didn't seem to be as anxious as you should be about the theft of the Tuoluo armor. On the contrary... you seemed to be somewhat relieved?"

"Oh? Really?" Ke Guolong smiled gently, with a few subtle complex emotions hidden in his smile.

"The Tuoluo Armor is the product of our hard work. It just came out and met with such misfortune. Naturally, I am indignant. However, I am used to burying my emotions deep in my heart and not showing them easily."

Although his words were calm, it was difficult to conceal the indifference he deliberately created. Ma Tian and Li Xiaochou, two experienced and wise men, could naturally capture the unusual atmosphere from these subtle words.

Not to mention, other people present, such as Ma Qingshan, also tacitly noticed something strange.

Leng Xue stood aside, with a subtle smile on his lips, his eyes wandering back and forth on Ke Guolong's seemingly calm face.

He secretly complained in his heart: "You call this anger? It's said that you don't show your emotions, but I think it's more like indifference! Humph, it's really ridiculous."

Although he did not say it, his disapproval was enough to let the people around him feel that he did not agree with Ke Guolong's words. There was a subtle tension in the air, and everyone was silently weighing the true meaning behind this conversation.

In this sudden conflict, Ma Tian's anger was completely ignited. He suddenly slammed his palm on the table, then stood up straight. His eyes revealed unquestionable majesty, and he stared straight at Ke Guolong.

"Lao Ke!" Ma Tian's voice was low and cold, like the chill wind in winter.

"Your highly-regarded Super Armor Research Institute has allowed the summoner of the Tuoluo Armor to fall into the hands of others so easily. Is this a joke?"

His words revealed deep dissatisfaction and doubt, "Xiao Feng, the master who makes a living by stealing, is cunning, but the reason behind his success is really puzzling."

Ma Tian frowned slightly and continued to analyze: "All this happened, it's too strange, it makes people imagine. Is there some unknown deal behind this? Or someone did it on purpose, and conspired with Xiao Feng to stage a carefully planned drama?"

Facing Ma Tian's repeated questioning, Ke Guolong's expression did not change. He responded in a manner that was neither ungentle nor fearful: "Boss Ma, what you call 'acting' is too heartbreaking. I, Ke Guolong, can guarantee that all operations at the Super Armor Research Institute follow the most stringent safety regulations. As for why Xiao Feng was able to succeed, the details require further investigation to get to the bottom of it."

However, at this moment, Ke Guolong's emotions were out of control, as if he was controlled by a powerful force. His face was distorted, his eyes flashed with sparks of anger, and his originally calm face became hideous and terrifying.

Suddenly, he burst into a deafening roar in rage: "Ma Tian!!! How could you be so forgetful?! Xiao Feng, that thief, was clearly recruited into the company by you personally!"

His words came out like a string of cannonballs, each word filled with anger and confusion: "When you recruited him and the other interns, did you ever consider my feelings? Now, you actually suspect me of colluding with him and trying to steal the research results that should belong to me?! Isn't this a huge joke?!"

The air around them seemed to freeze, everyone's expressions were distorted by astonishment, and the corners of their mouths twitched unconsciously. Ma Tian was also stunned by this sudden accusation, and then his memory came back, and he realized that he had indeed introduced Xiao Feng.

He coughed awkwardly a few times, trying to ease the atmosphere, and his tone was a little more apologetic: "Lao Ke, calm down. I don't mean to blame you, but the matter is too strange, and I have to be suspicious."

At this time, Li Xiaochou, who was standing by, saw this and immediately joined in the persuasion. He smiled and said sincerely, "Old Ke, we have known each other for so many years, how could I easily doubt you? Both Mr. Ma and I have absolute trust in you. How could you do such a thing?"

Upon hearing this, although Ke Guolong was still furious, his expression finally eased a little. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, that's better! But then again, I had considered this possibility before, but before I had time to think about it, Xiao Feng had already taken the lead."

......

Ma Qingshan looked at Ma Kuohai's bruised face in confusion, his heart full of doubts. He had clearly seen his brother training hard these days, so how could he be in such a state? Could it be that he was self-torturing to such an extent? This was obviously illogical.

Although Ma Qingshan did not ask directly, his concern was evident in his words. Ma Kuohai could naturally sense his brother's doubts. He smiled awkwardly and tried to resolve the embarrassment with a relaxed tone: "Brother, please stop staring at my face. I know I'm handsome, but I'm still embarrassed if you stare at me like this."

Ma Qingshan rolled his eyes at his brother, with a helpless tone in his voice: "Stop joking, tell me, what's wrong with this face?"

Ma Kuohai had to stop joking and sighed, "It's nothing serious, I just found a friend to spar with, and in the end... I lost." At this point, a look of unwillingness flashed across his face. He never expected that he would lose to Leng Xue, and lose so thoroughly that he had almost no power to fight back.

"Are you sure your friend was just sparring and didn't do anything ruthless?"

"Don't worry, brother. He knows his limits." Ma Kuohai nodded, but secretly thankful that this was just a competition, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

As the two were talking, Ma Tian's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting their conversation: "Now that the Tuoluo armor has been lost, how should we deal with it?"

This question was like a heavy hammer that hit everyone's heart. Everyone almost thought of an answer at the same time - "Get it back!" This was not only what they were thinking at the moment, but also the action they had to take next.
