Chapter 35: The Conspiracy Behind the Scenes



Lorraine told Harvey the idea of holding the selection competition in Uranus City. Harvey seemed to be listening carefully, but in fact he didn't take it to heart at all. He still wanted to use delaying tactics and use catching spies and hackers and controlling public opinion as a shield.

"Brother Lorraine, you and I have known each other for many years and you know my temper. I have always been the easiest to talk to. I support the selection contest, but now I have handed over the management of Star City to Harry. He can't even do what the emperor ordered, let alone the ability and energy to do the selection contest." Harvey evaded the question and asked the maid to fill Lorraine's tea.

Luo Lin looked at the tea leaves floating gently at the bottom of the cup, suspended in the middle of the water like floating green leaves, and asked in surprise: "Is this the famous Longjing tea?"

Harvey smiled proudly: "Lord Lorraine has a good eye, come and try it."

It was the first time for Luo Lin to drink Longjing tea, which was a specialty of the Jupiter region and was exclusively for the royal family. He took a sip and the fragrance of the tea immediately penetrated his taste buds, leaving an endless aftertaste.

"If Lord Lorraine likes it, I will give you a bag. Go and pack it for Lord Lorraine." Harvey ordered.

"Yes, sir!" A maid turned and left.

Harvey turned his gaze to Shu Ya again: "Doctor Shu Ya, you should try it too."

Shu Ya politely picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Thank you, Earl Harvey. This is the first time I've had such a fragrant tea. I see you don't look well. Have you been overworked recently?"

Harvey stared at Shu Ya, sizing her up, and said, "Doctor Shu Ya, you have good eyesight. I've been so busy lately that I'm a little worried. You have great medical skills, so you must be able to help me solve this problem, right?"

Shu Ya said, "Look at the dark circles under the earl's eyes and dull skin. This is caused by lack of sleep, excessive thinking, and improper diet. I happened to bring a pack of tranquilizing pills with me. You can try it."

Harvey took the tranquilizing pills handed over by Shu Ya, and touched her fair hand intentionally, smiling lewdly, "Prince is so lucky to have Doctor Shu Ya by your side."

Shu Ya hurriedly pulled her hand away. Under normal circumstances, she would have slapped the man in the face, but considering the mission she had to accomplish, she could only endure it.

Harvey handed the medicine to the maid, told her to keep it, and then asked, "Doctor Shuya doesn't look like someone from Tianwang District. Why did she come to us?"

Shu Ya replied, "My parents are from Jupiter. When I was very young, they moved to Saturn for work, and I grew up there. Later, I followed my parents to several other districts, so I can't really tell where I am from."

Harvey put down his teacup and said, "Then Dr. Shuya must be very knowledgeable."

Shu Ya smiled implicitly. "I can't say I'm well-informed, but I occasionally hear some of the latest news from my parents. For example, the upcoming Star-Picking Competition, all the star cities are gearing up to win the championship. Especially the Survival Alliance formed by the Mars, Mercury and Venus regions, which is determined to win. My father said that if the Survival Alliance wins this time, they will most likely propose to amend the peace clause of the Star City Treaty, so there are rumors that a second star war is likely to take place."

Harvey took a sip of tea and laughed, "Doctor Shuya is very concerned about politics. We in the King District have always been pacifists and have very good relations with other districts. Of course, I have heard the rumors you mentioned, but they are just rumors spread by some busybodies. The first star war directly turned Neptune City into ruins, hundreds of millions of people were killed, and it also brought disasters to various star cities. That's why there was the Star City Convention, which imposed a weapons ban on various star cities, and thus maintained peace for nearly a hundred years. There are no winners in war, and everyone understands this truth."

Shu Ya said, "But the first star war did greatly ease the Kaiyuan crisis. It was precisely because of the destruction of Neptune City and the occupation of the Neptune District that sufficient data space was provided to other star cities. After a hundred years of development, the data of Kaiyuan's star cities has increased dramatically, and the storage space of the Survival Alliance has gradually failed to keep up with the demand for data growth. They are in urgent need of opening up new storage space. How can Earl Harvey be confident that there will not be a second star war and a second Neptune City?"

Harvey didn't expect that this beautiful doctor would have such a thorough understanding of the situation. But he was not interested in this question. Besides, the emperor's eyes and ears, Lorraine, were also there. He was more worried about saying too much, so he said perfunctorily: "I believe that the Star City Convention will continue to maintain peace in all districts. As for the issue that Dr. Shuya mentioned, I am not sure. It is normal for star cities to form alliances. We are also an alliance with Saturn City. It doesn't mean that we want to invade other star cities, right?"

Lorraine quickly pulled the two back to the point: "Let's talk about the trials. From what you said just now, as long as Harry agrees to help us, the trials can be moved forward, right?"

Harvey said, "Of course, if he wants to do it, I will definitely support him. But this kid can't even deal with the viruses planted by a few hackers now, I'm afraid he doesn't have the energy to take care of the selection."

At this time, Luo Tian and Harry were talking and laughing as they walked into the reception room. They sat on the chairs and drank some tea.

Harry said excitedly, "Father, the task you assigned to me was completed by the prince. Not only did we get rid of a few Trojans, but we also cleared out all the viruses and Trojans in the entire Eri town."

When Harvey heard this, the smile on his face not only did not grow, but disappeared.

"Are you serious?" Harvey asked.

Harry was eager to share the joy and said happily, "Of course it's true. More than a hundred of my engineers can testify to this. In order to thank the prince, I decided to help him with the selection."

When Harvey heard this, he angrily threw the teacup to the ground: "Asshole, you..."
