Chapter 64 How could a group of orphans achieve this?

"Oh my god, what's going on? I'm still feeling dizzy and don't understand what this means!"

"You're so dumb! Mr. Ji wants to form a secret organization, and we're all candidates!"

"Exactly! Our assessment task is to investigate who is secretly reselling base supplies. As long as we achieve results, we can join this organization!"

"That's great! Let's see who's the best!"

After a period of whispering among themselves, the orphans quickly entered assessment mode.

They gathered in twos and threes to discuss, then dispersed, using every method they could think of to verify the matter.

This mysterious task greatly intrigued them.

Every child was pumped up, full of fighting spirit as they began their investigation.

Chen Jianhong's assessment was very peculiar.

No one expected him to let a group of inexperienced orphans investigate a supply reselling incident currently occurring in the base.

And this matter was indeed true.

Ever since Ji Yan announced the restriction on external material purchases, he had not restricted internal base personnel from exchanging materials.

Therefore, many greedy people seized this business opportunity. They used their points to exchange for a large amount of materials, then took them outside the base to exchange for crystals, and then brought the crystals back to convert into points, earning a huge profit margin!

All the supplies in the base were currently scarce outside.

Anything exchanged and taken out would be eagerly snatched up by the outside world.

Back and forth, these people had made a fortune in just a few days.

Chen Jianhong actually discovered this matter.

He truly lived up to his reputation as a top-tier intelligence boss; he stayed up all night reviewing all the base's data and quickly found something amiss!

This kind of thing was very easy to investigate because Adam had all the exchange records.

As long as Ji Yan gave the order, the list of these people could be identified in three to five minutes.

However, he did not do so. Instead, he made this matter an assessment, allowing the orphans to use their intelligence to conduct a comprehensive investigation.

"This assessment should be quite interesting!" Ji Yan said with a smile, "The children don't have AI assistance, can't obtain detailed information on base material exchanges, and don't have the right to move freely within the base. Their investigation difficulty will increase exponentially."

"But they can enter the school, go outside the base, and communicate with adventurers outside!" Chen Jianhong laughed, "As long as they truly want to investigate, they will always find a way. What we need are people who can think, not a bunch of idiots."

"Hmm!"

Ji Yan nodded in satisfaction.

Chen Jianhong's idea was correct.

Under Adam's surveillance, it could be observed that these orphans were scurrying around in twos and threes.

Some had already left the base, looking for adventurers outside to gather information.

Some were lurking and observing in the trading market outside the base, trying to find clues.

Some were guarding the base entrance, observing the flow of people entering and exiting.

Others simply ran to the school to ask their classmates for help in inquiring about the situation inside the base.

Most of their classmates had families, and these children were distributed in various living areas. Their sources of information were very wide, and many of them indeed had some gains.

"These little guys are really smart!" Chen Jianhong smiled with satisfaction.

Ji Yan also became interested. A group of orphans could achieve such a degree?

It really made him look at them in a new light!

Among the many orphans, four individuals particularly caught his attention.

One was a 16-year-old girl with glasses. She was calm and composed, returning to the classroom without a word, attending classes and observing as usual, secretly doing a lot of analysis!

One was a 17-year-old boy who was decisive. He directly found adventurers outside, mingled with the crowd after some socializing, and gathered a lot of intelligence!

The other two were a pair of twin brothers. They even disguised themselves, actively exchanged some materials to sell outside, and during this process, contacted the people selling materials in the base, gained their trust, and completely infiltrated the enemy's ranks.

"Oh my god!" The little girl Xiahou Wu couldn't help but exclaim, "They are all so clever! I didn't even think there was such a way to play."

"Heh heh, that's called talent!" Chen Jianhong said admiringly, "Some people are born for this. Give them a platform and they can soar. With a little training, they will become the core group of people in Skynet in the future, each capable of independently executing missions."

"Very good!"

Ji Yan nodded in satisfaction.

The performance of these orphans indeed made him look at them in a new light.

Xiahou Wu also became interested. She couldn't help but ask, "Chen Shu, can I join the assessment?"

"You don't need to be assessed!" Chen Jianhong shook his head and said, "Although you are younger than all of them, you have been personally trained by me for so many years. If you were to participate in the assessment, wouldn't that be bullying?"

"Uh, alright!" Xiahou Wu mumbled, "Actually, I also want to join Skynet and contribute to the base."

"You little girl!" Ji Yan said playfully with a smile, "You're only 12 years old. Shouldn't you be thinking about going to school and making friends with other children?"

"No way!" Xiahou Wu said indignantly, "I'm not a child. Why should I make friends with those little brats? I want to join Skynet. I can hunt zombies, and I can even kill people!"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

It was clear that Xiahou Wu was indeed a bit precocious.

She wasn't the type to quietly hide in school and study!

"Yan Ye, Xiahou Wu's abilities are quite good." Chen Jianhong said with a smile, "She is also very smart and has already self-taught high school courses, and she understands some computer and intelligence analysis. Let her be my little assistant!"

"As you wish!" Ji Yan shrugged indifferently, "Once the personnel structure of Skynet is finalized, conduct simple military training at the army training ground. Your headquarters currently has no place to settle. I'll figure something out after the Zombie Storm arrives."

"Yes!"

Chen Jianhong nodded indifferently.

His gaze shifted back to the current assessment.

A large number of orphans with special talents were selected by him from the vast crowd.
