Lu Yulan was widely known as a green tea, white lotus bitch. Relying on her status as an orphan, she blackmailed her way into marrying General Lu of the Empire. Even after the divorce, she maintain...
Before long, we arrived at Starport.
Seeing the flower again still shocked Lu Yulan. But when she left, she was full of joy and anticipation. Now that she has returned, she has a different feeling.
The bald man followed behind Lu Yulan like a burly bodyguard.
"Where are you going next? You don't need to follow me anymore, I'm going home."
"It's alright, no rush. I'll go with you. I'm going to Marshal Lu's place too; I need to see him."
He made up his mind. He couldn't run away. He had to go back and stay with Glasses, and together they would guard the border.
"Okay, thank you."
The two people flew towards the capital planet in a small spaceship, but a problem occurred as soon as they landed.
The entire capital city was filled with an indescribable restlessness, which made Lu Yulan feel uncomfortable and had a strange sense of oppression.
Seeing Lu Yulan's pale face, the bald man finally reacted, "Are you alright? Wait a minute."
Then he used his mental power to shield Lu Yulan.
Are you feeling better now?
"Thank you. What happened to me just now?" It couldn't be that I haven't been back to the capital for so long that I'm allergic to it.
The bald man's eyes were serious. "It's probably because there are too many people with disturbed mental energy, causing public outrage. Since you don't have any mental energy, you got dragged into it."
Just as the bald man finished speaking, an announcement came over the loudspeaker on the tarmac.
"Due to the riots and excessive mental energy... the magnetic field energy of the capital star is abnormal. All means of transportation will be suspended. Passengers are advised to walk to their destinations. Women can pick up a free mental energy shield at the service center on the tarmac."
Lu Yulan was puzzled; what could have caused the entire capital to fall into such a state of paralysis?
After receiving the jamming device, the bald man led Lu Yulan and Lu Yulan toward the Lu family's old house.
The journey took them through the main streets of the capital city, where hordes of people were heading in directions unknown to Lu Yulan.
"We demand a reasonable explanation."
"Who exactly killed General Lu?"
"Our idol cannot have died in vain. We request the Oversight Council to conduct a thorough investigation."
...
The bald man stood in front of Lu Yulan, afraid that she would be hurt by the angry crowd. Listening to the powerful rhetoric, even with the jamming device on, Lu Yulan felt a hidden sense of grief and indignation.
Where are they going?
The bald man's eyes were slightly red, and he used his remaining rationality to restrain himself from joining the crowd. "Looks like he's going to the Supervisory Council."
"Lu..., is what happened to him really a conspiracy?"
Lu Yulan lowered her head and asked the bald man softly. In the noisy and chaotic crowd, the bald man's mental power still managed to catch Lu Yulan's voice.
His tall frame stiffened. "I don't know. Let's go back to Marshal Lu's place first."
It's a lie to say there's nothing fishy about it; it's a trap, yet he personally escorted Lu Yuanhong there.
"No rush, come with me to take a look first."
The entrance to the Control Yuan was already crowded with countless people, like a tidal wave, blocking all the entrances and exits.
Lu Yulan stood on a high place with a wide view, looking at everything not far away.
In the open space at the front, a man was kneeling, with thorns on his head, kowtowing repeatedly, blood flowing everywhere in a shocking sight, yet he did not stop.
The physical fitness of the interstellar people is so good that it is evident here; as long as it is not a fatal injury, his mental energy is constantly helping him to repair it.
In this way, every time he kowtows, it is like being tortured.
Lu Yulan held her newly grown fingernails. "What is he doing?"
[A death warrant, requesting the Control Yuan to accept Lu Yuanhong's case.]
"Death warrant?"
