If Hu Ao had a secret passage or something, it would most likely be in his room or study, a place he often went to.
Hu Yan had already checked in advance. After Hu Ao came out of the palace, this was the place where he stayed most often on the main star. Therefore, it was also the place most likely to have a secret passage.
If he really colluded with the Zerg, given his personality, he would most likely put Bai Zhi in a secret passage that was closest to him and no one knew about.
Hu Ao's study is very large. Hu Yan directly released his mental power to every position in the study, closed his eyes and felt it, but did not find anything abnormal.
Then he used some tricks to unlock Hu Ao's light computer and check his recent records. During this period, there were three calls that were different from his normal contacts.
He sent these three calls to relevant people to find out where they came from.
During this period, Hu Yan received the news reported by his adjutant.
Adjutant: [Third Prince, there were quite a few evolved species among the Zerg attacking us this time, but thanks to our preparedness, we didn't let them succeed. They must have received word of the Zerg Queen's summons and retreated. We didn't pursue them as you instructed, but instead placed something on a few of them and discovered they were all gathered in one place. It's very likely that the Zerg Queen is there. She was previously poisoned by the giant spider and is likely weakened. Should we continue our attack to seize the initiative and eliminate her while we have the chance?]
Hu Yan thought for a few seconds and said, "Okay, take the thing I left for you and follow the instructions I gave you. Use it when necessary. Bring some extra weapons. The space bracelet I gave you contains spare weapons, medicine, and a battle mecha. If you find something wrong, don't fight to the death. Retreat immediately and wait for me to return."
After replying the message, Hu Yan also received the query results of the three abnormal calls.
[Third Prince, these three virtual phone numbers are not from the Federation. Two of them seem to be from other star regions. Do you need me to investigate further?]
Hu Yan read these words, and a hint of coldness flashed in his light blue eyes. It would be better if Hu Ao didn't do this!
If he really took Bai Zhi away and planned to do something to offend the Federal Empire...
If this is true, Hu Yan thought, he would not be lenient.
At this time, Langqiu and his men on the other side also made a new discovery.
There was actually a person lying in the treatment cabin of the eldest prince's house!
And she's a female!
She just looked like she had suffered 'very serious injuries' because she kept her eyes closed and her face was very pale, but her posture was peaceful, giving people the feeling that she was dead, but for some reason she was placed in the treatment cabin and seemed to be well taken care of.
Zelda looked at her for a moment, frowning, and said with some confusion, "This female looks familiar, but I haven't seen her before. It's really strange. If I had seen her before, there's no reason why I would forget her."
With this doubt in mind, he and Langqiu went down to reunite with a few people.
Yue Junxiao and Yan Yichen shook their heads at them. "We've searched all the guest rooms on the first floor and found nothing unusual."
Serda followed Langqiu and searched the third floor. "We did find a female on the second floor."
When they heard the word female, everyone looked at them.
Seeing them all looking at him, Zelda realized they might have misunderstood and quickly explained, "It's not Baizhi. I don't know her either, but she looks familiar."
"Judging from the layout of the room and the condition of the female, it's obvious that she's been given great attention. She even has her room connected to Hu Ao's."
Yue Junxiao subconsciously said, "Even you don't recognize her, which means this female is very important to that Crown Prince. That's why he never lets her out to meet people. Isn't this his weakness?!"
Yan Yichen frowned. "If we kidnap this female, she won't even resist, and won't even know it. Wouldn't we be the same as the eldest prince? Or even worse than him."
Although he was also anxious to save his wife, the female's condition was now so bad that she needed a treatment cabin. If he took her away like this, what if it wasn't done by the eldest prince? What if something happened to the female?
Sang Mo sighed, "At this time, we still have to distinguish between open and secret plots. The useful ones are good plots. If you still have time to worry about others, it means you are not nervous enough about Bai Zhi."
Yan Yichen explained, "I'm not worried about my wife. I also want to find her immediately, but doesn't this all depend on the fact that the Crown Prince is the one who kidnapped my wife? We're just suspecting it now, and the Heart Bug is useless. We can only rely on ourselves to find her, but we can't implicate other innocent people in our quest to find my wife."
The inexplicably despised Heartworm huddled in the bottle feeling aggrieved.
Hu Yan interrupted their argument and said, "Let's go see what's going on."
He was also a little curious. Who was the female who could let Hu Ao open up her room and take care of it regularly?
Together they went to the room on the second floor where the treatment cabin was located.
When Hu Yan saw who was lying inside, he was stunned.
It turned out to be Hu Ao's mother who had passed away more than ten years ago.
So many years have passed, and there hasn't been a single change. Just like Zelda said, it's obvious that someone takes care of it regularly.
When Hu Ao's mother died, Hu Ao was only in his teens and not yet an adult, while Hu Yan was just over ten years old at the time and still had some memories of his mother's death.
But he remembered that he had been buried at that time, right? How did he appear here?
Yue Junxiao tilted his head, took a look and said, "She looks quite similar to the eldest prince."
When Zelda heard this, she clapped her hands and said loudly, "I was wondering why she looked so familiar. She looks a lot like the deceased Concubine Mingxiu."
After saying that, Zelda felt a little strange and said, "But Concubine Mingxiu has been dead for more than ten years. How can a corpse still look alive after more than ten years?"
