Chapter 48 [Huang Qi Ce's Commission 04]



Qiu Miao: Who made you believe me?

Gu Wenye dispatched his troops so quickly because the direction of the monitored weapon's range was exactly the Prince's Mansion where Qiu Yanping was located. Otherwise, Gu Wenye would have hoped that the weapon would wipe out all the people in the Prince's Mansion in one fell swoop.

All of Gu Wenye's soldiers stayed at the outermost part of the Prince's Palace, spreading out in a circle to check for any suspicious signs.

Gu Wenye could be said to be the one who knew best how strict the security of the Prince's Palace was. Apart from the guards who took over patrols almost all the time, high-tech colorless and silent laser beams were spread all over the sky above the Prince's Palace. Nothing could get close without permission. Once anything invaded the territory, it would be completely eliminated by the laser beams.

In a prince's palace like this, what kind of weapon could enter so freely and even kill people directly?

Gu Wenye didn't think that the current Earth-1, or even other Earth Alliances, or other hostile planets, had such a high level of technology to be able to make such weapons - the military information he had in his hands was the latest and most confidential. Just like other planets had secret personnel lurking in the high-level positions of Earth-1, they naturally also had such agents. This was all an open secret.

The weapon was secretly put away by Qiu Yanping. When Gu Wenye and his team were searching for it, everyone was shocked by the sudden change and no one could spare the attention to the whereabouts of the murder weapon.

Gu Wenye and others were still investigating. After a while, the Interstellar Police also arrived. The Interstellar Police and the Seventh Division of the Military Department belong to two independent departments. Usually, such matters are assigned to the Interstellar Police for handling. However, because this matter involves the royal prince, the people of the Seventh Division of the Military Department were alarmed.

Due to the intervention of the people from the Seventh Department of the Military Department, this matter was no longer under the jurisdiction of the Interstellar Police. When the police officer in charge of this mission saw Gu Wenye, he suppressed his excitement and saluted suddenly. Then he handed over the responsibility to Gu Wenye and left with his team.

Huang Qi Ce would rather the Interstellar Police take over, but unfortunately they handed over the power particularly decisively and quickly. Huang Qi Ce could only watch with a suffocated heart as Gu Wenye, under the pretext of investigation, planted his own people everywhere in his house and wandered around.

"I think enough has happened today, so why don't we stop here for now. As for the prince's... minor illness, we'll talk about it another day." Qiu Yanping had something on his mind and didn't want to stay in the prince's mansion for any longer, so he found an excuse to say so.

Huang Qi Ce was obviously reluctant, but he didn't dare to really offend Qiu Yanping. The person had made it clear that he wanted to leave, and he didn't dare to stop him because Qiu Yanping could save his life. He had to nod and let the person go reluctantly. Of course, he still had to put on a good show.

"Uncle Qiu, send Mr. Qiu back. By the way, give Mr. Qiu a box of the angelica and mullet roe we collected a few days ago. Please make sure to accept it." Huang Qi Ce said.

"Your Highness is so polite. I will respectfully obey your command." Qiu Yanping certainly would not refuse. He smiled and nodded slightly to the butler Qiu Bo who came over to respond, then followed Qiu Bo out of the prince's mansion.

Gu Wenye didn't have much room to maneuver under Huang Qice's watch. After a quick inspection, he saw Qiu Yanping had left early, so he simply withdrew his troops and returned to the military office and went off work.

He returned to Qiu Yanping's small courtyard and knocked lightly on the open door. Qiu Yanping called out from inside the house, "Come in."

When he saw Gu Wenye, he curled his eyes and said, "You're here. I was wondering whether I should look for you." He stretched out his hand and dragged a chair to the opposite side of him, motioning Gu Wenye to sit down. He said, "Let me show you something." He showed Gu Wenye the shuttle-shaped murder weapon that he had been playing with in his hand. "This is the murder weapon that killed Zhu Wenmin before. I thought it would be the interstellar police, so I hid it first, but I didn't expect you to lead the team here."

Gu Wenye took the weapon and looked at Qiu Yanping disapprovingly, saying, "This weapon might be controlled remotely by someone. You hide it like this. What if the other party also regards you as a target for elimination? It's too reckless."

Qiu Yanping touched the bridge of his nose. He had put it directly into the Merit Shop in his palm. It couldn't hurt him anyway. Later, when he returned to the mansion, he saw that this thing was very well behaved, so he took it out again to examine it carefully. However, he couldn't tell Gu Wenye about the Merit Shop in his palm. Now, hearing Gu Wenye's scolding, he had to keep quiet and let it go in one ear and out the other.

Gu Wenye saw that Qiu Yanping had stopped talking and thought that his tone was too harsh. He thought for a moment and softened his tone and said, "Mr. Qiu, I don't mean to blame you. I'm just worried about your safety."

Qiu Yanping coughed lightly. He could pretend to be deaf and dumb when Gu Wenye was scolding him harshly, but once Gu Wenye softened his attitude, Qiu Yanping was no longer intimidated. Qiu Yanping, who always responded to soft words but not to hard ones, softened his attitude and said, "I understand what General Gu means. General Gu, take a look at this, can you tell where this thing came from?"

Seeing that the situation was awkward, Gu Wenye could not say anything more. He picked up the black shuttle-like weapon again and examined it carefully.

"This looks like a one-time, one-way weapon," Gu Wenye said. He moved the charred part of the tip of the shuttle, and a mini program panel could be vaguely seen inside. "This extremely mini program panel is currently in the research and development stage. As far as I know, no planet has successfully made it. I really have no idea where this panel came from. But if I guess correctly, the user of this weapon stores the command in this program panel. After the command is completed, the program panel is automatically destroyed. In this way, even if such a weapon falls into the hands of others, they will not be able to know who issued the command."

Qiu Yanping nodded and said, "Actually, I do have some clues about the murderer. At that time, I was questioning Zhu Wenmin about who gave him the Yuanbao Lantern. Just when he was about to describe the main characteristics of the other party, the attack suddenly came and sealed Zhu Wenmin's mouth. Zhu Wenmin said that there was a mark on the man's wrist that looked like a clock. Do you have any impression of it?"

Gu Wenye shook his head and said, "I have no impression." Then he asked with some confusion, "What Yuanbao lamp?"

"…That's a long story." Qiu Yanping said. He briefly explained to Gu Wenye what happened in the Prince's Mansion. Gu Wenye was surprised that Zhu Wenmin thought that he deliberately did not save his mother that year. He smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"So what happened to the Yuanbao Lantern later?" asked Gu Wenye.

"It hasn't been resolved yet. Are you too obsessed with this to bother with Huang Qice's problems?" Qiu Yanping shrugged his shoulders and spoke as if it was a matter of course, which made Gu Wenye feel a little amused.

In the Prince's Mansion, Huang Qi Ce and Huang Yu Tian sat opposite each other. No one spoke for a long time. Finally, Huang Qi Ce spoke first and said, "I never thought that all the pain I have suffered in the past few years was caused by your second brother."

"Fortunately, the truth is out now. Qiu Yanping tampered with this broken lamp and changed its ownership to Zhu Wenmin. Now it can't do evil anymore." Huang Yutian said. He looked at the Yuanbao lantern on the table. Zhu Wenmin had held it tightly in his hand before. Even if he fell down, the thing would not be broken by him. Now it is safely back in the hands of Huang Qice and Huang Yutian.

"It's better to just destroy this lamp." Huang Yutian said, and as soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand to smash it.

Huang Qi Ce hurriedly said, "Will there be any problems if we destroy it directly?"

The butler Qiu Bo stood aside, with a gray beard and looking very old. He said, "Master, you should wait until you have the correct information before taking action."

Huang Yutian sneered and said, "Qiu Yanping said that there is a knot of divorce at the top and all the troubles have been transferred to Zhu Wenmin. What do we still need to worry about? Aren't you worried about leaving this broken lamp in the mansion?"

Huang Qice agreed when he heard it. Qiu Yanping had already made it very clear before, so if they destroyed the lamp now, nothing should go wrong. As he thought so, he also remembered that it was this broken lamp that made him extremely uncomfortable in recent years. Everything went wrong and he was always suspicious and his spirit was weakened. He got so angry that he smashed the Yuanbao lamp into two pieces himself.

Huang Qi Ce smiled easily. It was finally over. All the days of suspicion were gone forever.

Huang Yutian also laughed, but the smiles on their faces did not last for more than a few seconds before they could no longer laugh.

The entire Prince's Palace was suddenly covered by a huge shadow. The three of them hurriedly ran outside to see that the sky was covered by thick dark clouds, which only covered the sky above the Prince's Palace. Looking at other places, it was still a good weather with a bright moon and sparse stars.

The cold wind howled and mixed with faint complaints and curses, which made people shudder. Huang Qi Ce was so scared that he quickly retreated back into the house. He looked at Qiu Bo and Huang Yutian in horror, "What, what is going on!?"

The fear on Huang Yutian's face was no less than Huang Qi Ce's. How could he know what was going on?

Before they could figure out what was going on, Huang Yutian's eyes suddenly became dull. He stared blankly at the door, then suddenly began to dance with joy. His eyeballs split to the left and right, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth curved strangely into a seductive arc. He spoke incoherently but with joy, "Here he comes, he's all here, he's finally out..."

Huang Qi Ce was trembling with fear. Seeing his son suddenly become so weird, he spoke with a trembling voice, "Yu Tian, ​​what nonsense are you talking about! Stop teasing me!"

Huang Yutian suddenly stopped, he slowly turned his head to look at Huang Qi Ce, his eyes suddenly burst into blood mist, his eyeballs bounced out and fell to the ground, a lot of blood poured out from the empty eye sockets, the bloody eye sockets were facing Huang Qi Ce, he twisted his mouth, he didn't want to laugh, he didn't want to cry, "Huang Qi Ce, it's time."
