The uncle looked weathered. Qiu Bai had visited Rose Star several times, and each time he showed interest in Chu Rui's affairs. Although he was very reserved, Qiu Bai could tell from his eyes.
He recognized the flower on the dagger; the two criminals had shown it to him before—a blood-red datura, a very beautiful flower.
"What? You don't believe me?"
"I need evidence."
Although he is now at odds with Bai Shan, it doesn't mean he would so easily believe the words of a criminal.
He rescued Qiu Bai during a post-battle cleanup. At that time, he was a novice, full of enthusiasm, and he saw Qiu Bai covered in blood and on the verge of death.
Its tenacious vitality astonished him.
It also taught him to suppress his arrogance. Later, when she couldn't remember anything, Lu Yuanhong fabricated an identity for her and kept her by his side as a bodyguard. That's how Gu Chen came to be.
He had investigated Qiu Bai's identity before, but found nothing, only that he came from the Exile Starfield.
Now it seems that even that identity was fake.
"evidence?"
"The evidence is right here, including not only Bai Shan, but also the dirty secrets of the entire empire's upper-class families."
Whoever controls it, and adds a bit of power, will be the undisputed Dark King of the Empire, since that evidence could truly overthrow a powerful family.
Later they all died, and he spent so many years alone on the criminal planet, and those secrets were buried with him.
If it weren't for today, he would never have said it in his entire life, looking at Lu Yuanhong standing at the door.
This person is cunning and calculating, planning every step he takes. It's likely that he had already foreseen this outcome the day Lu Yulan was taken away by the skeleton.
Lu Yuanhong took a step back, clearly feeling uncomfortable as he recalled those long-ago unpleasant memories.
"Thanks."
Lu Yuanhong didn't ask any further questions about where they had buried the evidence. He thought he could probably guess.
"You're welcome. I wasn't doing this to help you."
Lu Yuanhong turned back and gave the uncle a deep look, then walked into the deepest part of the base without saying a word.
I hope what you're saying is true, and I hope you're not hiding anything.
...
When Lu Yuanhong returned to the bedroom, Lu Yulan was still asleep. The 01 system was running normally, showing no intruders.
"The genetic screening results are in; please check them."
Looking at the data sent to his wrist-brain, Lu Yuanhong witnessed the scene he least wanted to see.
This screening result is compared to the result of the check at the police station, which was less than a month ago.
In the short term, Lu Yulan's gene sequence changed by one percent.
Or, if we convert it to other things, a piece of cake, a glass of water—one percent is a very small number, but it's different in the human body.
A one in ten million mutation can cause humans to develop gray hair; Lu Yuanhong couldn't imagine what would happen with a one percent mutation.
"Inference about the cause of the mutation?"
"There is no internal or external cause."
...
When Lu Yulan woke up, she felt as if she had slept for a very long time, even an eternity.
The sight of the silvery-white color made her think for a moment that she was in heaven.
Looking down, she saw Lu Yuanhong sitting quietly in a chair. Hearing the noise, he looked up and gave her a smile.
"woke up?"
"kindness."
Lu Yulan touched her stomach; she was not only awake, but also hungry.
"I just cooked some seafood porridge, would you like some?"
Lu Yulan took a gentle sniff; it smelled wonderful. She unconsciously narrowed her eyes. "Did Uncle make this?"
