Chapter 127: The luck of the ascendant is here, and it cannot be stopped...

Nan Qi's spiritual body, the nine-tailed cat, was agile and light, and quickly climbed to the destination of this operation - the home of one of the high-ranking heroes.

The weather was getting colder, and most windows were closed, but that didn't bother Nan Qi. He tapped the glass lightly with one of his tails, and a dark hole suddenly appeared on the glass.

Nan Qi puffed out his little chest, wrapped his furry tail around the wings of the beautiful butterfly above his head, and then silently jumped into the black hole.

A second later, Nan Qi brought Bai's spirit body into the tightly sealed room.

This high-rise home is a large duplex with two floors. Mellon's information was very accurate, and Nan Qi easily found the room of the high-rise's son on the second floor.

It wasn't too late yet. The senior executive's son was lying in the game cabin playing games. The door was not closed tightly, and the sound of conversation outside could be faintly heard.

The butterfly lying on Nan Qi's head flapped its wings lightly and flew up. Nan Qi followed it. The two little ones jumped and moved to the shadows. When they could hear the sound downstairs clearly, the cat and the butterfly stopped.

There were two bugs sitting opposite each other on the sofa in the living room downstairs.

One of the female insects was familiar to Bai. She was none other than the Central Star's Star Police Chief, River Cotton. The other was a male insect with an arrogant expression. He was probably the master insect of this family, Herbert Griffin, the game director of the Brave Fighting game.

The conversation was not pleasant. Liv Carton was very disgusted with Herbert Griffin, who would not cry until he saw the coffin.

He snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know that this incident was caused by you. I'm here to give you a chance. If you don't know how to behave, I believe His Majesty will be very interested in you, who are traitors and colluding with the Star Beasts and other insects to commit such a heinous crime."

Herbert Griffin didn't expect that Liv Carton had actually found something. He looked at Liv Carton with a sharp gaze and lowered his voice to a very low voice: "You are threatening me. Don't forget, you have a dirty bottom too!"

"So what? I can make amends for my crime by doing meritorious service!" Liv Cotton looked back without flinching, only to see Herbert Griffin suddenly smile.

The laughter grew louder and louder, and finally became almost crazy. It made Liv Katon feel a bad premonition. He said fiercely, "What are you laughing at? Are you scared now?"

"Afraid?" Herbert Griffin's smile faded, and his gaze on Liv Carton's face became even more arrogant and rude. "It's you who should be afraid. You accepted my money and wanted to redeem yourself for your crime. There's no such thing as a good thing in the world."

Herbert Griffin stood up and walked over to Liv Carton, leaning slightly over him with a sarcastic smile on his lips: "When you accepted my money, you were already on my ship. If you want to get off midway, you don't have to worry about drowning. You can try it."

Liv Cotton: "You, aren't you afraid——"

"What do you mean by me?" Herbert Griffin interrupted Liv Carton, his smile growing wider. "Are you afraid that you'll drag me down with you? Would you?"

Liv Carton frowned and said nothing.

Seeing this, Herbert Griffin reached out and gently lifted Liv Carton's chin, making him look at him. It was an almost ambiguous gesture, but Herbert's words were as sharp as a knife:

"You wouldn't do that. You're a useless, pleasure-loving coward. How could you possibly do something so daring and selfless? If you can't find out, the worst that can happen is a demotion. If you tell anyone, you're a female insect and a star police officer. You should understand the imperial laws better than a merchant like me."

This sentence hit Livcoton's soft spot. He came here to test whether the information he got was reliable, and secondly, he wanted to use this information to threaten Herbert Griffin to give him some benefits and solve this trouble by the way.

But he didn't expect that Herbert Griffin didn't feel threatened at all, and didn't even act like a collaborator. He looked as if he was sure that he wouldn't dare to do anything.

Livo Katon's back teeth were about to break. He cursed these damned male insects in his heart, but he refused to give in. "You think you see through me, but don't forget, all insects have tempers. If you don't let me have a good time, I won't let you have a good time either."

"If you want me to shut up and help you achieve your goals as a collaborator, then you should act like a collaborator. Otherwise—"

"What else?" Herbert Griffin frowned. "Assassinate me?"

"Of course not. You said I'm a female insect and a star police officer, and I know exactly what kind of punishment I'll receive if the assassination of a male insect is exposed." Liv Cotton smiled slightly, "But there are so many aircraft now, and your son likes to fly aircraft. What if something goes wrong..."

Seeing that Herbert Griffin's face was getting worse and worse, Livcoton decided to quit and left with a sentence: "You don't want to know how I know these secrets. I'm waiting for you at the Star Police Station. I hope you won't let me down." Then he turned and left.

After Liv Carton left, the living room was silent for a few seconds, and then there was a loud noise, probably because Herbert Griffin kicked something over.

Nan Qi and Bai ignored it and quietly returned to Herbert Griffin's son's room.

Nan Qi used the same trick again, making a dark hole on the transparent cover of the game compartment, then jumped in, and hit the male insect between the eyebrows with his tail. The male insect, who was immersed in the joy of the game, didn't even make a groan, and his body went limp.

After a successful attack, Nan Qi immediately took Bai to the next house and repeated the same trick.

After running to five houses in a row, Nan Qi finally released the aircraft in a remote place. The two insect spirits returned to their bodies, looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing.

Nan Qi turned on the automatic driving and sat in the spacious back seat with Bai Qin, talking affectionately.

"Live Cotton is more "capable" than I thought. How did he become the chief of the Star Police?" Nan Qi's mind was full of questions. He really didn't expect that Liver Cotton would dare to go to Herbert Griffin's mansion alone.

A female insect visited the residence of a powerful male insect late at night and threatened him. This male insect didn't need to do anything else, just inflict some injuries on himself. Even if Liv Cotton was not arrested, he would be demoted or even fired.

One has to be really stupid to do such a thing, but it does make things convenient for them.

As soon as Livo Caton made the threat, something happened to the families of these senior officials. It was hard not to think that Livo Caton was responsible.

Bai didn't expect that Liv Katon could be so stupid, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood Liv Katon's thoughts.

You can't catch a wolf without risking your child.

Liv Cotton wanted to gain benefits from Herbert Griffin, so of course he couldn't take his subordinates to take Herbert Griffin back for interrogation.

Liv Carton believed he had something on Herbert Griffin, so he was fearless.

In fact, Livercatton made the right bet. Herbert Griffin was essentially the same gambler as Livercatton. Both were the kind of people who were crazy about money. Moreover, he was more arrogant than Livercatton, so he naturally would not play any tricks that would result in mutual destruction.

After explaining his analysis to Nan Qi, Bai said in a gentle voice, "We have helped Livo Carton tonight. Tomorrow, Herbert will probably take a two-pronged approach: confront Livo on one hand, and go to the sanatorium on the other."

"Well, as long as we keep up, we'll always gain something." Nan Qi rubbed Bai's hand, the corners of his mouth raised, "No matter what the result is, Liv Katon will definitely take the blame."

When talking about this, Bai Ye laughed and told Nan Qi how Livo Cotton came to power.

"Actually, he shouldn't have been the one to take the top spot this year. But maybe it was just luck that couldn't be stopped. The other three candidates had problems one after another, so there was no other choice but to push him up."

"Something happened? What a coincidence?" Nan Qi touched his chin, feeling that it was not that simple.

The next second, Bai gave the answer: "Of course it's not that coincidental. Of the three candidates, two are pro-female insects, and one is an extreme pro-male insect. The pro-male insect faction is afraid that if the pro-female insect faction takes power, they will treat male insects unfairly in cases involving males and females, so they go to the black market to hire killers to kill insects."

"Wow, that's wonderful! Did the group of male insects succeed?" Nan Qi's eyes widened, and he couldn't wait to know the result.

Bai shook his head, then nodded, confusing Nan Qi: "Is this a failure and then a success?"

"Yeah." Bai suddenly kissed Nan Qi's innocent eyes, thinking that Nan Qi looked so pretty like this. He continued, "The other two had the same idea as the male insect group, but they were afraid that the male insect group would be unfair to the female insects, so they also went to the black market..."

Bai paused for a moment, and Nan Qi strangely heard a hint of nonsense in his pause. Nan Qi asked tentatively, "Could they have bought the same killer?"

Bai was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Nan Qi: “…”

No, is this such a joke? Is there no other killer besides this killer?

He could understand killing others in order to compete for a job. Darkness would always exist in every era, especially in the competition for such a powerful position.

What Nan Qi found ridiculous was that they had no other plan except to kill each other.

Are you really so brainless? Are we collectively losing our intelligence?

As if he could see through Nan Qi's thoughts, Bai continued, "It's not their fault, actually. This killer is too famous. He's never failed, and he always makes it an accident. He's very reliable. With such a shortcut, who would want to think of something complicated?"

"But they didn't expect that the killer would take orders from both of them at the same time and then easily take out all three of them."

Nan Qi: "...Did you get the final payment from the killer?"

Bai nodded: "He is too famous. If you want him to make a move, you have to pay the full amount."

Nan Qi: "...Great! You're planning ahead..."

Bai sensed Nan Qi's frustration and smiled slightly. "After the three of them died from their injuries, the only qualified candidate left is Livo Carton. He's also a well-known peacemaker. The previous candidates who were inclined all died under strange circumstances. In order to appease all parties, pushing Livo Carton, who has no inclination, to the position is the best choice."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Nan Qi hissed, feeling that something was wrong. Is Livo Carton really so lucky?
