The last sentence of Chapter 349 is unnecessary.
His eyelids drooped slightly, and he turned to Eli seemingly casually, asking, "Your Highness, is the exact time of the incident at the Graham family's residence specified in the report? Approximately what time in the evening?"
Although Eli didn't understand why he suddenly asked this, he still looked down and glanced at the screen.
"Hmm... According to several servant insects and guardian insects, it's probably around seven or eight o'clock in the evening."
Around 7 or 8 pm?
Letekar's heart skipped a beat. At that time... he seemed to have just returned with Tan Chi, and then he went to the bathroom...
He was so focused on taking a shower that he couldn't hear anything outside.
With Tan Chi's bizarre abilities, he could easily tear through space, instantly arrive at Graham's house, deal with Acosta and Michael, and then quietly return home.
The whole process might be shorter than the time it takes him to take a shower, and no insects would notice it at all.
All the clues instantly connected into one line, pointing to the insect he was most familiar with.
The only thing that Letokar couldn't understand was why Tanchi wanted to attack Acosta.
Could it be... that I mistook it for another insect?
Although the male insect wasn't much better, it was Michael who was plotting against him at the Crown Prince's wedding.
Given Tan Chi's protective and vengeful nature, he couldn't help but tear open a space that very night to seek revenge... It's exactly the kind of thing he would do.
“Leetkar?” Eli couldn’t help but ask when he saw that Leetkar hadn’t spoken for a while. “Have you thought of something? Have you found a clue?”
Lutekar snapped back to reality, his usual cold expression returning, and he even shook his head slightly. "No, it's just that the timing seems a bit off, and I need to verify it again."
His tone was calm and showed no flaws. "Your Highness, why don't you let me investigate this matter entirely?"
"Give it to you?" Eli looked at Letekar with some surprise.
Ludkar nodded, his reasoning flawless.
“The investigation of cases involving unknown energies requires a high level of authority and flexibility.”
He paused for a moment, then said, "I'll be in charge of the investigation. If I find any unusual traces or oversights at the scene, I can deal with them immediately to avoid any complications or unnecessary panic."
What Leterkael said wasn't exactly a lie, but whether this oversight was for the military or for his powerful lord is another matter.
Eli paid no attention to Lettcal's offer to take the lead.
Although Lettkar rarely paid attention to anything other than the battlefield in the past, now that he is married to his brother and actively inquires about military affairs, he naturally treats Lettkar as a member of the family.
He was naturally delighted.
In addition, this matter was indeed quite tricky, and he was naturally eager to have a capable subordinate willing to share the most difficult part.
Eli secretly breathed a sigh of relief and patted Lettkar heavily on the shoulder: "Alright! I'll leave it to you! Make sure you get to the bottom of this, and report back to me immediately if you need anything!"
"Yes, General." Lutkael gave a crisp salute and turned to leave the office.
The moment he stepped out the door, a hint of helplessness mixed with indulgence flashed in his eyes.
My lord, you've really given me a huge problem.
...
In the evening, Eli returned to the palace, exhausted.
Seeing Kano running happily into the room, his brows and eyes relaxed considerably.
These past few days, he's been busy with matters concerning the palace and the military, which has indeed left him somewhat overwhelmed.
But now that Ludl is back, his workload can be reduced by more than half.
He can take this time to rest so that he can hold an engagement party with his little male insect.
"Were you getting impatient waiting at home?" Eli couldn't help but ruffle Cano's hair, looking at him gently.
Kano shook his head and pulled Eli to sit on the sofa in the bedroom. "I know things are tricky at the military. Sit down and get some rest."
They're having their engagement party in the next couple of days, and he naturally hopes Eli will be in top form for the event.
Eli raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but chuckle as he pinched Cano's cheek. "So proactive today, do you have some mischievous idea up your sleeve again?"
He remembered the last time Kano was so enthusiastic was when Tan Chi was in heat and wanted to postpone the wedding; Kano suddenly took the initiative.
Then, that day, he almost lost his back.
I wonder what this little male insect has been watching all this time, that it can dress so fancy.
Kano's cheeks flushed, and the whole worm stiffened slightly.
Fortunately, he's been doing more intimate things with Eli lately, and he's not as easily a complete fangirl as before.
But he still felt a little shy about asking Eli directly about this issue.
He nestled his head into Eli's arms, then mumbled, "No, I... I just saw you looked really tired today and wanted to help you relax. I... I learned a really amazing technique..."
Upon hearing the word "method," Eli instinctively felt it couldn't be a serious term.
But upholding the trust between insects, he decided to trust the little male insect one more time.
"Then how am I supposed to cooperate, my dear lord?"
As soon as Eli uttered his words with a smile, Cano blushed completely.
He opened his mouth, but couldn't say what he wanted to say for a long time.
Finally, he could only quietly point to the sofa behind Eli and then utter two words, "Lie down."
Eli found it somewhat amusing, but still did as Kano said and lay down on the sofa.
Kano took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down before leaning closer to Eli and saying, "Now, Your Highness, close your eyes, don't look at anything, just feel me."
Eli: "..."
The last sentence is unnecessary.
Although he wasn't an S-class female soldier like Letekar, he was still considered a top-tier female soldier among A-class female soldiers.
Both their hearing and eyesight are top-notch.
Now that he has his eyes closed, his hearing and sense of touch are even more acute.
He saw every step Kano took as the collar slowly loosened and the buttons were undone.
He even suspected that Cano was using the guise of helping him relax to do intimate things.
Recently, Eli has been experiencing these sensations more often, so he doesn't feel anything special anymore.
The male insect's spiritual power can well nourish his spiritual sea. Although he is an A-level military female, he rarely goes to the battlefield after he becomes the successor of the future insect emperor.
His mental sea was not severely damaged, but under the nourishment of the young male insect, his mental sea has been completely recovered and even shows a tendency to expand.
So Eli didn't resist doing anything with the male insects at all.
But his furtive, dog-like actions still made him find it somewhat amusing...
