Chapter 98 Secretly

◎Rioted◎

Shi Hanqiao walked around him and approached the scene.

The pattern on the ground was so large that the outermost circle encompassed the entire corpse.

The five corners of the five stars in the circle also correspond to the limbs and head of the corpse.

The pentagon inside the five stars was weighed down by the corpse.

When he got closer and saw it clearly, Bai Shuiyang took a breath.

There was a big hole in Mr. Bai's heart, the size of a fist, and the pattern drawn in blood on the ground was the result of blood flowing out of his heart.

"Tonight at 7:30, I came to the study to find Grandpa to pass on a message for my mother, and that's what happened."

Bai Muxue explained the whole story in detail.

Many people are well aware that Mr. Bai is not close to his two children.

After Bai Shuiyue came to power, she would not take the initiative to look for Mr. Bai unless it was necessary, and she would ask her children to pass on the message when there were occasional matters.

Mr. Bai attached great importance to rules throughout his life. He regarded family honor as everything and strictly required his children and other family members to behave in a certain way.

The first thing Bai Shuiyue did when he became the head of the family was to abolish the outdated rules. The two children were carefully cultivated in terms of strength, but their personalities were never restricted.

Therefore, Bai Muqi, as the elder brother, is silent and taciturn but not pedantic and strict because of his raiding position; his younger sister Bai Muxue, as the commander, seems to have an eccentric personality but is actually cautious and meticulous.

Neither of them looks like the grandchildren that Mr. Bai had in mind, and it makes him angry just looking at them.

Although we haven't seen each other for many years, we still communicate from time to time.

Bai Shuiyang covered his lips and coughed lightly, immediately understanding what his sister meant.

There are countless eyes staring at the person in charge of the Bai family, so Bai Shuiyue naturally needs to be calm and steady.

But it is not normal for grandchildren to visit Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai cares about etiquette and manners, so Bai Shuiyue asked two children with different personalities to go and greet them.

As her younger brother, she knew exactly what she was planning.

Bai Shuiyang sighed, but he didn't expect that when Bai Muxue opened the door, she would see Mr. Bai's body.

He looked at his niece: "Are you okay?"

Bai Muxue's eyes flashed and she shook her head.

"fine."

Her uncle and her mother reacted in the same way. They were both concerned about her mental state as the person who discovered the body, rather than caring that the body was their father.

It seems that grandpa really broke their hearts back then.

However, my uncle's sadness was evident on his face when he saw my grandfather's body.

Unlike her mother, she didn't say anything, just came to look at the body and left.

Bai Muxue turned her head to look at her little cousin's expressionless face and sighed inwardly.

Blood ties are the most unbreakable bond in the world.

But if there is no mutual and healthy emotional cultivation, and only the domestication of interests and power, it will be even colder than strangers.

It can be said that Mr. Bai's death left all his family members with some melancholy and complicated sadness, except for a few immediate family members.

Others either felt indifferent or even felt happy in their hearts.

The emotions are cold and indifferent, just like the water on the capital planet.

It's normal to feel freezing cold.

To put it bluntly, dead is dead.

A dead person cannot create new benefits, and the resources he originally controlled are divided due to his death.

A corpse, just like Luo Ningyou back then.

Once dead, you are dead.

However, the Bai family still has some feelings for them, which is different from the Luo family's straightforward abandonment back then.

Bai Shuiyang asked, "What is your plan, sister?"

"After all, the pattern is a royal emblem. Add to that the bizarre way he died, and the fact that he was able to kill Grandpa in the study without alerting the Bai family, and the Bai family will definitely investigate. However—"

Bai Muxue changed the subject and said, "This incident is not glorious for the Bai family. We will announce to the public that the old man died of illness, and the investigation will only be conducted in secret."

Mr. Bai paid great attention to the family's honor throughout his life, but his death made his family a topic of conversation among others.

It is obvious that after being exposed, Bai Shuiyue can use her methods to directly hold the Russell family accountable and gain more benefits, and time will dilute the fact that the Bai family is not at fault.

Bai Shuiyang nodded softly: "Yeah, I understand."

Given my father's personality, he would have suppressed it as well.

My sister just followed my father's wishes for the last time.

"I was the first person to discover it, and then I sealed off the room, not allowing anyone to enter or leave. In other words, apart from the murderer, only the five of us know about it."

Bai Muxue, Bai Shuiyue, Bai Shuiyang, Bai Muqi and Shi Hanqiao.

Bai Muxue pursed her lips slightly to suppress a smile: "My mom also said that there are at most six."

Bai Shuiyue didn't like Shi Qi, naturally because she had abducted her Omega brother and had been abducting him for more than 20 years.

But no matter how much you dislike her, you can't deny her excellence. The most important thing is that she and Bai Shuiyang have a good relationship.

Although it was awkward, he still acknowledged Shi Qi as Bai Shuiyang's Alpha.

It's just a bit roundabout.

"She's in the room? I'll go find her."

After receiving a response from his niece, Bai Shuiyang said a few words to his daughter and left the study to find his only remaining blood relative.

There's no way around it. Shi Hanqiao's facial features are somewhat similar to Shi Qi's, so it's better not to bring him to meet his sister for the time being.

Bai Muxue said to Shi Hanqiao, "Don't blame my mother. Although she is the head of the family, the old man's influence is not weak. In addition, with your previous qualifications, returning to the Bai family is worse than being raised by a robot butler outside."

"No." She didn't care.

The original owner also understood.

"That's good." Bai Muxue's eyes lit up, and she moved to her side casually, extending her arm and naturally placing it on her shoulder: "In this case, shouldn't we two sisters share the joys and sorrows together?"

“Hey!”

She tilted her body, and the people beside her moved aside as her arm fell.

"Bai Muqi is your brother, I'll go find him—"

Shi Hanqiao walked to the door, turned around and said to her: "—Move the body."

After saying that, he opened the door, left, and closed the door.

Done in one go.

Bai Muxue was silent and slipped away very quickly.

Shi Hanqiao went out and went straight to the front hall, where Luo Wusheng was.

Ever since their mental powers merged, they could sense each other's presence.

In the center of the front hall stood a flower basket that could hold thousands of flowers. It was filled with white flowers, all of which were put in by important figures from major families or the military and political circles.

The actual funeral will be held seven days later. According to the rules of the circle, people who are familiar with each other today will come to send a white flower to represent the final journey of the deceased. After the flower is delivered, they can leave on their own.

The Bai family only issued the obituary at 8 o'clock tonight. Now it is 11 o'clock, and seven or eight empty flower baskets have been replaced, but the lights in the Bai family's house are still brightly lit.

Countless people left, and countless more continued to come to see Mr. Bai off for the last time.

There may not be much affection between them, mainly because the Bai family is powerful and the people who come and go from the Bai family are also extremely powerful.

Even if the guests were dressed in plain black and white clothes, no matter how soft their voices were or how sad their expressions were, it could not change the fact that Vanity Fair was draped in mourning clothes.

Shi Qi was surrounded by three layers of people.

He is either the head of a family or an old man who has retired behind the scenes.

It is difficult for those who are a little younger to get close to Shiqi.

As a result, she became the youngest in the group.

Shi Hanqiao glanced at the whole situation and fixed his gaze on the two people chatting in the corner, Luo Wusheng and Bai Muqi.

There were also groups of young people who walked over to chat with the two of them, and left after a few words.

After all, this occasion is not suitable for long conversation.

Shi Hanqiao walked straight over and sent the annoying Bai Muqi to find his sister.

Luo Wusheng didn't ask anything. There was nothing appropriate to say here.

Luo Wusheng took out two white flowers and handed one to girl A.

The two walked together to the empty flower basket that had been replaced.

Many people, even when talking in low voices, were keeping their eyes and ears open. When they noticed the two people releasing flowers together, they all had their own guesses.

During this period, Tan'an frequently contacted various families, and all the major military academies began to take holidays. Any shrewd person could hear what he was thinking.

Not to mention the rapid development of interstellar technology, the ideological atmosphere is also far more open than before.

But some things exist forever.

Under the blue sky, nothing is new.

The capital planet, where power is highly concentrated.

The various forces are intertwined, just take the royal family and the four major families as an example.

The five families are related by marriage at different times, not to mention the extended relationship between the main family and the side branches.

The capital planet is a piece of soil, and even though it is very tangled, it only has six towering trees.

The Royal Family, the Bai Family, the Luo Family, the Black Family, the Kovia Family, and the Luan Alley.

No matter whether it is the military or the government, not to mention the high or low officials, they are all within these six forces.

There can't be a single exception.

There is no such thing as a smooth promotion for ordinary people. Only by relying on the forces they are loyal to can they have a future.

There isn’t enough soil to go around, so who wouldn’t want to keep it all to themselves, let alone share it with outsiders?

Marriage is the most common, simplest and effective way of union.

However, the Russell family is quite generous.

It is a custom that the royal family has no military power.

Luo Wusheng’s name is not important. What is important is that his name in the Star Network Household Registration System is Visir Russell.

Shi Hanqiao herself is not important. What is important is that she has a mother who has complete control over the Ninth Army and is currently the first candidate for the Grand Marshal.

The two stood together and sent the old man of the Bai family on his last journey.

Even though they didn't say a word or make any intimate gestures, they said everything.

Shi Hanqiao walked out after placing the flowers, and suddenly said on the way: "There is no difference."

Luo Wusheng followed him out of the front hall and took a detour onto a secluded path.

"What?" He didn't always fully understand what Girl A meant. For example, when she said something without a beginning, an end, or a specific context, he couldn't guess what she meant.

She didn't stop, but the voice came from the front.

"The world of cultivation and the interstellar space."

This is a good thing. Whatever he asks, girl A will answer.

Although the answer was equally concise, Luo Wusheng understood what she meant.

They had intercourse in the sea of ​​consciousness, and recently he saw many scenes in his dreams that he had never seen before.

At that time, she no longer lived in the wooden house, and Luo Wei was no longer by her side. I guess it was after her death.

Shi Hanqiao suddenly appeared, quelled the rebellion and brought order to the world, becoming the public enemy of the three realms.

The young man saw countless conspiracies and intrigues from her perspective, either against her or between the three realms.

Luo Wusheng nodded: "Indeed."

Whether it is the world of cultivation or the interstellar world.

Where there are many people, it’s the same everywhere, fighting for interests.

Shi Hanqiao opened the cabin door and said as he walked in, "Trouble."

Luo Wusheng stopped, but the person in front of her stopped and turned around, staring at her in a daze.

After a while, he hesitated and said, "Will you regret it?"

He didn't even dare to ask if she regretted it, but rather if she would.

Regret being tied to him.

Once again involved in disputes.

But it's too late to regret.

Anyway, he won't let go.
