Chapter 121

When they left Senator Yan’s place, the latter was still saying, “Little Yan is only impulsive. She has no connections and no intelligence. She could never have devised such a plan. She must have been coaxed by that Bai Zihan…… ”

Shi Nian then said, “Bai Zihanp is not that much smarter than your daughter.”

The two of them are half of a brain, so none of them could coax the other.

Xue Chi walked at the back, listening to him still inquiring about when he could leave and Yan Nuo’s affairs, he couldn’t help but say: “Mr. Yan, you can live here with peace of mind. There is delicious food and drinks. I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave the empire before the matter is investigated properly. ”

Senator Yan immediately said, “I have nothing to do with this. My daughter was also instigated by your imperial people… ”

“Yes or not, it depends on the evidence.”

Adjutant Xue said seriously, “I hope you will be lucky enough that we find evidence to prove you are innocent in this matter. Otherwise, as things stand now, you’ll have a hard time getting out of it. ”

“Yan Nuo is not very smart, but you are smart enough to be in the top echelons of the Federation, aren’t you? ”

After they left, Senator Yan was furious.

“Yan Nuo!”

He gritted his teeth, never imagining that a good plan would be ruined by his own daughter, and even get caught on the scene.

When Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting left here, they immediately sent someone to check out the amusement park again.

The best part of this plan is that both sides needed to keep in touch, so it’s best if Senator Yan had contact with the five. But the other side obviously couldn’t have used the light-brain directly. They should have dealt with it by other means, but they still had to find it.

On the way back, Xue Chi asked, “How much of what Senator Yan said can we trust?”

Shi Nian said, “The only thing I believe is that he may not have found out about our plans himself.”

Otherwise, the other party might have planned it more rigorously so that Yan Nuo, who had gone out to make use of the information, would not spoil his plan.

“Then who exactly was it?” Adjutant Xue was puzzled.

Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting looked at each other and thought of a situation at the same time.

“The Zerg.”

This kind of tactic was simply very much like the handiwork of the Zerg; borrowing a knife to deal with people.

Only, they previously used the Wu and Bai families, but now it has become the Federation.

The tactic was also simple to the point that Star Network was used again.

They had previously used the Star network to stir up the matter of the Space Stone, leading to the defeat of the Bai family. Now it’s only normal that they use it again.

“Xue Chi, I suggest you take a trip to see those two zerg, and give them a word about this.” Shi Nian said. “By the way, I will give them a suggestion. Next time they plan to do something, we should sit down and discuss it together. Because every time they make a move, other people dismantle the plans.”

Xue Chi: “……”

You just want to piss off those two Zergs, right?

Just at this time, Zhou Xinxian’s side sent a message, “Marshal, your light brain is fine. Now the possibility is that the search company’s side has been hacked, or that it has been infiltrated. ”

“We are ready to go over there to check..”

“Wait.” Shi Nian suddenly remembered, “The Hua family is in the Star network business, right? I remember the family’s search software was almost a monopoly, including Xingbo, which is also owned by them. ”

Adjutant Xue immediately said, “Yes, what’s wrong?”

“What’s wrong?” thought Shi Nian, “what else could not be wrong?”

“Have someone go and invite the Hua family over for a talk.” He said, “By the way, invite the one called Shi Zha over too.”

He had suddenly remembered something that he hadn’t paid much attention to earlier, but now that he thought about it more carefully, it did seem to be a bit of a problem.

Xue Chi didn’t ask why, and immediately ordered someone to go and do it.

Zhou Xinxian, who hadn’t hung up yet, heard this and instantly said, “Yes, if the Hua family did it themselves, everything would make sense.”

No one had hacked their software, and no employee had any problems. They were the ones who did it themselves. Including the previous Starnet rhythm incident, there hadn’t been a clue.

For one thing, it wasn’t very easy to investigate, and for another, it was probably because a lot of the data was with the Hua family, and they could have fudged it a bit to keep them busy.

Shi Zha was invited in quickly.

His new girlfriend came with him, waiting outside, of course. Shi Nian muttered, “She’s quite smitten.”

When he saw him, Shi Zha said, “Mr. Shi, it’s not very nice of you to take personal revenge like this! Although I am a bit of a scum, this is at most a character issue, not a crime! ”

“It’s not about that.” Shi Nian leaned across the table and began, “You said at lunch that it was the young lady from the Hua family who was pestering you?”

“Why are you asking that?” Shi Zhan froze for a moment, then withdrew the original casualness from his face and looked a lot more serious. “In the matter of the Wu family’s schemes, is the Hua family also involved?”

His words were almost like he knew something.

Shi Nian looked at him and raised his eyebrows, “Let’s talk!”

“There’s not much to say.” Shi Zha spread his hands and said, “I was close to one of the Wu family’s sons, but I don’t think I was that close….just a friend. The other side is rich and powerful, so hanging out with him would get me face and save me money. As for the young lady from the Hua family, she was an acquaintance of the one surnamed Wu, then we met and fell in love. ”

But,

Shi Zha suddenly laughed, “Mr. Shi, you thought you were doing a good deed, but how do you know you were not spoiling someone’s calculations?”

“How do you know that Miss Hua really didn’t know I was a scumbag? She was just trying to get a reason to go hang out with that one of the Wu family without being obvious. The Hua family was already thinking of working with the Wu family at the time, and she was obviously not really in love with me to the point of death. ”

At that, he paused and said reminiscently, “The only one who has ever been sincere with me was Xiaomu!”

Shi Nian snorted. No wonder this guy kept going back to Xiaomu even though he was surrounded by flies.

It was because Xiaomu was pure and single-minded and the only one who was really interested in him, but he himself was a real scumbag.

“Let’s get down to business. ” Lu Bo Ting reminded him with a sullen face.

The moment Marshal Lu spoke, his aura instantly rose, and Shi Zhan straightened his expression and continued: “That’s all. I have no proof, but I can only say that years of social mixing gave me a kind of intuition. As soon as I saw those rumours on Starnet before, I knew I was just a specially picked out target to cover up a cooperation. ”

“That man, surnamed Wu, asked me to say good things about the Wu family in front of the girl. The other party seemed eager to believe, even though they were clearly false.”

They all knew it at heart, but just didn’t expose it.

“I got to have a more beautiful, rich, and well-behaved girlfriend anyway. What was there to complain about? ”

That’s why he said what he said to Shi Nian at noon.

He really wasn’t sorry about Miss Hua. He wasn’t the one who would be really upset if the matter went viral and Master Hua broke off their relationship out of respect.

He was not short of girlfriends and boyfriends, and it was obvious that Miss Hua could not really marry him.

Shi Nian said to himself, “Sure enough.”

There was nothing wrong with that comment at the time, it sounded like an arrogant scumbag redeeming himself, but what if it was true and the one who lost out was not him ?

“There really is something wrong in the Hua family. ”

A normal person would not need to find a reason to have a cooperation.

This was clearly a good way to make sure that if something happened to the Wu family, they would immediately pull out and show that they were not on the same side, and they only agreed to cooperate because their little granddaughter was close to them because of her lover, and everyone would not refute this.

“You’re very perceptive. ” He couldn’t help but look at Shi Zha.

“By nature, “Shi Zha immediately said,” I don’t have Mr. Shi’s good looks and skills, nor do I have Marshal Lu’s power and status. I’m not poor, but I’m nothing on the main star, so if I don’t have any other skills, why would anyone want me?

Shi Nian: “……”

He didn’t want to discuss with the scum on how to attract a guide, so he got up and went out.

Shi Zha shouted after him, “You can’t really have a personal vendetta. Let me out. I didn’t do anything illegal, and the guides were also willing…”

Shi Nian had no plan or reason to lock him up; he just left because he felt if he stayed any longer, he would beat someone up.

As for other questions, the rest will be handled by others. The only thing Shi Zha needed to do was to sign the statement to confirm its authenticity and then leave.

The next step was the Hua family’s side.

Because the zerg had the ability to change their appearance, Xue Chi and the others had already gotten a machine that could check the identity of the zerg there, mainly to check if anyone in the Hua family had been switched by the insects.

“No.” Seeing them coming, the busy adjutant Xue immediately trotted over, “All are still human. There are no zerg disguised as humans. ”

Shi Nian had seen all of the Hua family. They were now either ranting and cursing or protesting. In short, reacting violently to being brought in for investigation.

At first glance, it was impossible to tell the difference.

But.

It didn’t feel right.

In the cultivation world, the zerg and demons were the same thing. The demonic aura from the demon cultivators was of the same origin as the demons, and by coincidence, that demonic aura was somewhat similar to the spirits’ aura inside the dungeon game he had spent ten years in.

Shi Nian was simply too familiar with it and could smell it from a distance.

And there were two members of the Hua family who had it on them, though faint, but clearly there. It looked like they had been in contact with the zerg and had been contaminated by them.

If Elder Hua wasn’t between them as a comparison, he would not have noticed it immediately.

When Shi Nian pointed out, Xue Chi immediately said, “That’s Elder Hua’s eldest son and his youngest son’s wife.”

Shi Nian: “……”

The Hua family members also heard this, and their faces instantly changed.

Shi Nian noticed their expressions and was dumbfounded.

Sure enough, there’s something wrong with these two. There is a real hammer!

Whether the other people could leave for the time being is another story. But these two have had contact with the Zerg and are definitely not able to leave.

Shi Nian immediately let people take pictures of everyone from the Hua family. When they looked at the results, everyone immediately found the difference in the two that Shi Nian had pointed out.

Those two carried demonic energy, although not much, but in the end, there was still some influence. Their figures were slightly blurred. Standing alone, it was not very obvious, but if people were sensitive to this aspect, or if they were put together with everyone to compare, these two were very conspicuous.

Without saying a word, Adjutant Xue had those two people picked out and taken away for interrogation.

Only then did Elder Hua come forward, “I wonder what exactly this eldest son and youngest daughter-in-law of mine are guilty of. They…”

“No comment for now.” Deputy Xue said, “But it can’t be proven yet that the Hua family has nothing to do with this matter, so you all can’t leave for the time being either.”

When these words came out, some of the people from the Hua family were instantly anxious.

“How can you do this?”

“Do you know how much of an impact this will have on our family? What will the media say when they see us being taken away? What about the company’s share price? Do you know how much damage it would have caused? ”

“Is it because our family has gained too much momentum recently and the Yan family is anxious to rectify us?” Some even doubted.

Lu Bo Ting didn’t even care, and he directly led Shi Nian away.

They had too many things to deal with.

If it was just Bai Zihan and the Wu family, it would have been easier to deal with. But now that the Federation and the Zerg were involved, there was a lot of trouble.

Even Adjutant Xue was on his feet.

Zhou Xinxian happened to come over and couldn’t help but say, “You’re still concerned about the share price at this point in time. If it turns out to be true, even if you’re released, you may not get your shares back. ”

That’s collusion with the Zerg, which is equivalent to condemning the empire.

Once the matter was implemented, regardless of how many members of the Hua family were involved, the shares of that entire company would have to clatter downwards.

When he said this, how could the Hua family not understand the seriousness of the matter.

But they didn’t know what was going on.

The crowd whispered, and a noblewoman-like woman seemed unable to hold back any longer and loudly rebuked, “What else did those two shameless people do?”

That was the Hua family’s eldest son’s wife.

On Lu Bo Ting and Shi Nian’s side, they soon got information about the Hua family. Especially that of the eldest son and youngest son’s wife. It was very detailed.

In the past, the matter was actually quite a big deal, and if not for the long period of time that had passed and the fact that it belonged to the business world, Lu Bo Ting would have heard about it.

At that time, the two sons of the Hua family had fallen in love with the same woman. The elder son was in love, while the younger son was in an unrequited love.

But at that time, Old Lady Hua clearly loved the younger son more. Even though the elder son was the more capable of the two sons, the younger son was just more attentive to her.

Master Hua, of course, appreciated the elder son more, but he was not happy to have this daughter-in-law, feeling that this woman was the cause of the brothers’ discord, and that there would be no peace if she married into the family.

In any case, under these circumstances, the young couple was torn apart.

Mrs. Hua’s thoughts are easy to understand, and Master Hua’s thoughts were not difficult to understand either.

He was just thinking of getting his eldest son another wife first, so that in time they could learn to love each other and he would forget that woman. As for the younger son, there was no need to worry about him, as the woman did not like him at all.

No one could have imagined that, in the end, the female guide would marry into the family.

Shi Nian looked down, ” Master Hua, would actually agree?”

“It should be Old Lady Hua’s wish!” Lu Bo Ting said, as the pair turned the page.

Sure enough, it was Old Lady Hua who gave her nod on this matter at that time, because her youngest son was on a hunger strike and suicidal. So Old Lady Hua agreed because she felt sorry for her youngest son.

“Is it just because the crying child had spilled his milk? But on what basis? Does my own heart not hurt? Does it not break? ”  The eldest son of the Hua family, sitting there in the interrogation room, said.

Once the story was revealed, he had nothing to resist. Instead, he explained very happily.

“I also begged and cried back then, but what did my father say? He said it was impossible, that betraying your brother was a big taboo. Yet I was clearly the one dating the guide. I was told that it was impossible for Li Yan to enter the Hua family, and that I should do as I was told and get married, or I would be kicked out of the family. How come his turn turned out to be different, and he got to marry her? And was he not afraid of betraying his brother at that point? Did I deserve to suffer just because I am sensible? ”

But it was clear that, with his tone and anger, the sensible man was not prepared to put up with the situation.

So the two couples lived together in the same mansion afterwards. Of course, they avoided each other. But as time went on, it was hard not to show any signs.

“What does this have to do with all the things you’ve done?” Someone asked.

The youngest daughter-in-law of the Hua family said, “Of course it’s because my husband beats me. He was getting more crazy and I wanted to get rid of him, but I couldn’t have such a scandal happen to the family… ”

What a joke. The suffering you mentioned was the result of this family, and you still want to defend their reputation.

Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting sat outside and watched the scene through the light screen and wondered, “So as soon as the Zerg approached, you immediately agreed?”

“Do you know who the people who contacted you were?” They asked.

In unison, the two said, “No.”

But even if they didn’t know, they weren’t three years old, so they knew what the consequences of doing those things would be.

They must have thought it was someone from the Federation or some other country!

The purpose was nothing but to go after Marshal Lu.

“Since you were all aware of the consequences and still did such things, doesn’t that mean you were aware of the consequences?”

“I knew!” The eldest son of the Hua family said, “But so what if the empire can’t survive without Lu Bo Ting. But that man was mysterious in his methods, and he promised me to wait for the success of the matter, and that I could continue to live in the Hua family in name only, and not have to worry about my brother’s existence anymore. ”

This comment made the interrogator angry and immediately slapped the table, “Have you not thought about why people are trying to harm Marshal Lu in every way possible? Does it matter to you if the empire becomes weaker?”

The look in these two people’s eyes told them that it was irrelevant in their minds.

No matter what happened to the others, they would be able to be together openly and honestly by then.

Even if the empire was destroyed as a result, it would mean nothing to them.

In the end, they would have ties to the winning side, they would be considered to have merit, and with their family’s wealth intact, they would still be able to live a good life when the time came.

What does it matter to them what happens to the empire or what happens to the other people.

Selfish! Extremely selfish.

“For the sake of selfishness, they would not hesitate to harm the empire’s interests.”

The youngest daughter-in-law of the Hua family immediately said, “But we would be getting freedom. This is the freedom we have been waiting for for so many years!”

“If you really wanted freedom, you could have been together back then. It’s just that you couldn’t give up the huge wealth of the Hua family. ” Zhou Xinxian walked in and said disdainfully, “If you’ve done something disgusting, don’t use the name of freedom.”

If you want to talk about grievances, ask if there was anyone who hasn’t had some grievances.

Wasn’t his father wronged? He was wronged almost to death.

He knew his enemies were the Wu family, but he couldn’t get justice for all these years. But did he turn to other countries or build some kind of bomb to blow up the Wu family?

The Wu family was still one of the top families in the empire. What was the Hua family? Colluding with the Zerg just because of their own family’s shit?

These two were simply stupid and selfish to the extreme.

To call them love-brains is an insult to love-brains, who are at least reckless for love, but they want love without forgetting to grasp for profit.

“Seriously, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, who would have believed that this was really happening? ”

Lu Bo Ting said, “Master Hua might have thought his son would put his interests above all else. So he wasn’t worried about what he would do. After all, the Hua family’s reputation would be tarnished and the business side would suffer. But who knew….”

If they were not crazy, how could this explain itself?

“Do you know what you are doing?” That interrogator was simply going crazy.

But the Hua family duo laughed and said, “It’s already like this; how can we not know?”

“We have had a hard time, and the Hua family will now also have one. They will have to fall with us anyway…. hahahaha.  My dad has always thought highly of himself and still thinks that he can control everything for everyone in the whole family. I’ll show him that we can have ideas of our own.”

“Shut up.” The interrogator couldn’t bear to hear any more.

“Who instructed you to do all these things? Tell me how you contacted them, what you did for them, and tell me the truth. ”

When you’ve finished, you’ll all be put in jail and sent to court.
