Chapter 71 Chapter 71: Leaving the shackle on Jin Er's right ankle...
After Amiya left, Jiner walked gently to the bookshelf embedded in the wall.
His fingertips slowly slid along the spines of the books. Some of these books were Jin'er's personal favorites, and some were prepared by Amiya - to entertain the imprisoned Jin'er.
He picked up a book at random, returned to the sofa, sat down gently, his back naturally leaning against the soft backrest, and opened the economic magazine in his hand.
Watched for a while.
Taking his eyes off the magazine, Jin Er casually glanced around the interior of the house, his gaze finally resting on the surveillance cameras hidden in the corners that almost blended in with the decoration style.
There are at least 5 cameras installed in the living room.
Suddenly, the door lock was gently turned open.
The door of the villa was opened.
Jin Er looked up.
I saw Naki, the commander of the Second Legion, who did not leave with Amiya.
The female soldier, dressed in a dark brown uniform, exuded a certain calmness and solemnity. His steps were steady, each step on the soft carpet seeming to tap the air.
The soles of the military boots made contact with the ground, accompanied by a slight friction sound, which echoed in this spacious and quiet living room, adding a bit of tension.
Naji bowed to Jin Er and said, "Your Excellency Jin Er."
Jin Er didn't say anything, but just silently looked at the camera in the corner, the meaning was self-evident.
Naji immediately understood: "Don't worry, sir. The camera has been paused."
"Um."
Jin Er then spoke,
"Captain, long time no see. I'm sorry I didn't say hello earlier."
Naki is Amiya's right-hand man. Jin'er had naturally met Naki before, although most of the time they met in formal occasions.
All in all, we don't have much of a personal relationship.
However, in Jin'er's cognition, Naki is a relatively rigid type in all aspects - he follows the rules and never makes mistakes.
It's actually quite incredible that someone with such a personality would actually help Amiya.
"Sir Jin'er, to be honest, the Second Hospital was attacked last night. Sir Xirui and Sir Ian bypassed security to visit you and happened to enter the hospital. During the attack, Sir Ian unfortunately fell down the stairs and is still in a coma."
Naki tried to explain it as concisely as possible.
At the end, he even added a supplement.
"Your Majesty knows, that's why he summoned the Second Prince."
"Lord Xirui has discovered that you are not at the hospital—and now the news of your disappearance has spread like wildfire."
After saying that, Naki looked at Jiner, trying to see something from the male insect's expression.
However, Jin'er's expression management is better than Naki's.
The male insect sat calmly on the large sofa, his legs crossed in an elegant posture, showing a calmness in the face of danger.
Even wearing black home clothes, it did not diminish his aura in the slightest.
He is a natural born superior.
Jin Er's slender fingers gently pinched the spine of the book. It's not that he didn't react, he just tried to hide his reaction as much as possible.
Jin Er was not surprised by the news.
He believed that Xirui would definitely find suspicious points in the car accident. The best countermeasure was to make a big deal out of the matter and attract public opinion. So it was only a matter of time before it was exposed. He just didn't expect it to be so soon.
It has only been two days since he disappeared and the news came out.
In fact, Jin'er could sense Amiya's softness and hesitation - if the faked statement was not a coma from a car accident but a direct death from a car accident, then the body would be burning in the car and there would be no doubts or traces left.
But Amiya didn't do that. She still stubbornly kept a glimmer of hope in this matter and was even willing to take the risk.
However, Amiya probably couldn't have imagined that there was actually someone who had the courage and ability to break through the Second Hospital's most advanced infrared security system and run directly into the Second Hospital.
As for Ian...
Jin Er had not expected that Ian would be involved in this matter.
"How is Ian?" Jin Er asked with a frown.
Naki thought for a moment and answered honestly:
“Sir Ian’s injuries were relatively minor, he just accidentally hit his head.
The doctor said it might be a concussion, and that it would be fine after some rest, and that it wasn't life-threatening."
In fact, what he said was an understatement. The situation at the scene was really extremely tragic.
In the early morning, Naki rushed over and saw three forces fighting in the hospital: Lord Xirui and his group, the hospital security, and another team of unknown mercenaries.
The scene was extremely chaotic.
There are both close combat and long-range combat, as well as snipers on sniper mounts. Naki heard a gunshot downstairs and immediately saw a figure falling from the top floor opposite.
When the scene was finally under control, there were 25 mercenaries in total, and 10 of them were killed by snipers. The bullets directly hit their heads, and their brains exploded. The scene was once very exciting.
Some of the hospital security guards were also injured, most of them because of head-on collisions and fights with mercenaries, and some were simply knocked unconscious by Xirui and his men, or injected with anesthetic bullets.
The unconscious Lord Ian was immediately sent to the hospital. Lord Xirui was also covered in blood, and Naki even met Xirui face to face.
It must be said that as expected of a complete three-year training at the Imperial Military Academy, the male insect Xirui had two guns on his back, a sniper rifle and a submachine gun. There was also blood on his body, probably because he was shot.
However, Naki, who had walked on the line between life and death and charged into the smoke of war, always had an extremely keen sense of smell for his own kind.
Even though he is a male insect, he is very suitable for the battlefield.
With absolute judgment, extremely high accuracy, and strong psychological quality, he never shows any fear even when outnumbered.
Even though he was injured, the male insect Xirui acted as if nothing had happened. He still greeted Naki with a relaxed look and quickly switched from combat mode to daily mode.
However, they didn't talk much, and Xirui soon followed Ian to the emergency operating room of the Second Hospital for on-site medical treatment.
"Your Excellency Jin Er,"
Naki didn't elaborate, and changed the subject.
"His Majesty has indeed been too extreme in what he did to you...in this matter. Once this incident has passed, His Majesty will certainly compensate you accordingly. I hope you don't take it to heart."
"Compensation? For the honor of the royal family?"
Jin Er repeated it, chuckling inconspicuously, and looking at Naki with his emerald eyes.
"Let's be honest. Who are you talking to me on behalf of? Your Majesty?"
It's actually quite strange. Although Naki is His Majesty Attaran's spy, he is extremely obedient to Amiya's orders.
It's quite contradictory.
Hearing this, Naki's face suddenly showed a slight surprise:
"Your Excellency, I cannot represent... I am merely expressing the royal family's apology to you on behalf of His Majesty."
The S-class male insect was imprisoned by the Second Prince after his marriage. If such explosive news were to be released, even though the Male Insect Protection Association is now chaired by Lord Lin Mo, it would still cause a huge public opinion storm.
The active and militant members of the Male Insect Protection Association will also stir up trouble because of this.
There are a hundred disadvantages and no advantages.
Second Prince Amiya made a very unprofitable mistake, but Naki couldn't bear to see him make more and more ridiculous mistakes.
Both the Second Prince and His Majesty have done him a favor.
Naky Leonard.
Back then, Count Reynard kidnapped the Second Prince and rebelled against His Majesty.
The entire Count Reynard's talisman turned into a sea of fire. Naki was Count Reynard's youngest female child and also the one with the least sense of existence.
His paternal father was rumored to be unfaithful and was beaten to death by the Count. Count Reynard was promiscuous and no one cared about him. The servants in the Count's mansion called him a bastard.
Naki is the same age as the Second Prince. Back then, Count Reynard locked the Second Prince in the basement, and Naki looked inside from the only barred opening on the ground outside.
He saw a young sub-female.
In the dim light, a young sub-female was curled up, her figure looking extremely fragile.
The wounds were all over my body, and they were crisscrossed like the intricate cracks on a withered branch in winter.
The back exposed in the tattered clothes, the snow-white skin, against the backdrop of the scars, looked even paler and bloodless, like a barren land covered by the first snow of early winter, pure yet with endless coldness.
The sub-female's body is skinny, with every inch of skin clinging to the bones, without a trace of excess fat.
The butterfly bones are faintly visible under the skin as thin as a cicada's wing, almost breaking through this fragile barrier and flapping its wings to fly.
Despite the torture, the young sub-female still stubbornly lives on.
——At that time, Naki recognized that this was the Second Prince adopted by His Majesty some time ago.
It would be hard not to recognize it, as it was all over the news at that time.
Young children are easily moved to pity.
Naki tried to let Amiya go, but failed. The iron bars of the window could not be opened at all, so he could only feed Amiya secretly.
Then, His Majesty took swift and decisive action to suppress Count Reynard's Palace.
Because of the Second Prince's plea, Naki was not killed. Instead, he was pardoned and allowed to train and learn as the successor, and even allowed to inherit the remaining power of Earl Reynard's Mansion.
Naki is very grateful to His Majesty Attaran. His Majesty Attaran not only opened up a new era, but also gave Naki a brand new life.
As for the Second Prince, Naki is a little more complicated.
He watched the Second Prince grow like a rotten rose, hurt himself, and hide in the treatment chamber. The scars on his body kept appearing and being removed.
The only thing left was the bullet hole on the Second Prince's chest.
The scars keep growing, as if they will never go away.
Not only that, the Second Prince has become more extreme and persistent.
Naji wanted to persuade him, but the Second Prince did not accept his advice.
This time, the Second Prince even imprisoned the S-class male insect. After His Majesty learned about it, he ordered Naki to release Jin'er and calm the male insect's emotions.
But Naki can't do such delicate things.
He has a tough personality and won't say soft, soothing words.
What's more, the male insect in front of him should not need any appeasement, only negotiation.
Jin Er's eyes fell on the chain on his right ankle, and he said:
"Unchain them."
Naki nodded slightly and took a step forward. As he got closer, the pair of sharp wings hidden behind him suddenly spread out, like two sharp blades that had been tempered through thousands of blows, flashing with cold light.
The wings flapped gently, and the air flow they brought up was like a sudden gale, even the air was cut by the sharp edges.
The seemingly indestructible and extremely hard chain, with a light cut from Naki's wings, broke like rotten wood, and the broken end was flat and smooth.
The shackles on Jin'er's right ankle were cut instantly, and he slowly freed his right foot from the broken chain.
Naki retracted his wings, and the pair of sharp blades were once again pressed against his back.
He lowered his head:
"Sir, do you need a flying vehicle prepared for you?"
Jin Er nodded.
"I'm going to the Second Hospital."
"And—remember to release Lip."
