Moreover, didn't Wang Tao say Ding Yuqin is in the Shuize Base? If the people from Shuize Base come to Red Stone Base, wouldn't Ding Yuqin come too? When she comes, wouldn't everything be exposed?
So the best solution is to eliminate Wang Tao first, and then find a way to deal with Ding Yuqin! That way, no one will ever know his secret!
Although he has no real power at Red Stone Base now, he's very well-liked and has a good reputation. Ji Lian even hinted that in half a month, real power would be handed over to him. By then, he would have truly established a foothold at Red Stone Base!
With real power, he could continue to climb up. Maybe not take over Bai Hao's position, but at least his father-in-law's position, right?
After all, his father-in-law is old and only has one daughter. His daughter is disabled, and to ensure she lives well in the apocalypse, his son-in-law's status must be elevated!
