Chapter 87 Offering Yourself Up for Killing
With the help of Shadow One and Shadow Three, the two heads that were originally difficult to cut off were easily severed.
The ultimate target, Herbert Dewey, was so frightened that he hid directly in the Silverwing Legion's garrison camp. Upon seeing Tang Haohan, he burst into tears, saying:
"Commander, please save me! This time, an underground organization has appeared out of nowhere, and they are ruthless!"
The assassination of twelve senators in the Alliance Parliament in just five days is an extremely serious act of terrorism!
I will hold a press conference and publicly appeal to the public online, requesting everyone to actively provide clues about these criminals so that they can be apprehended as soon as possible!
"Uncle, your snot is all over my uncle's uniform, how disgusting!" a clear child's voice rang out.
Herbert Dewey looked up and realized that, without him noticing, a delicate little boy, as exquisite as porcelain, had appeared behind Tang Haohan's large chair.
"Uncle? Commander, when did you get such a big nephew?" Herbert Dewey blushed, wiped his snot, and glared at the boy with displeasure.
"I forgot to introduce him to you. He's someone I just met five days ago," Tang Haohan said seriously.
Herbert Dewey always felt something was off. He had heard of people adopting sons or sworn brothers, but he had never heard of anyone adopting a nephew.
Could it be that Tang Haohan, this ancient iron tree, has finally blossomed?
You know, back then, in order to win him over, he sent him more than one beautiful woman, of all shapes and sizes, but he wasn't interested in any of them and returned them all.
This made him wonder if Tang Haohan had a problem with his sexual orientation and preferred Nanfeng.
However, it seems that this is not the case at all. Since he recognized a nephew, it must be because the nephew's mother was favored by him. He recognized this sister first, and then recognized this nephew.
At this moment, Herbert Dewey forgot his original purpose for coming to find Tang Haohan. His gossip was burning brightly, and he really wanted to see what kind of woman could move Tang Haohan.
Tang Haohan perhaps understood his thoughts, and then added, "Oh, I forgot to introduce you to my newly adopted little sister—Little Fan!"
As they were talking, the door to the office suite suddenly opened, and a young woman with an elegant and refined demeanor walked out.
To be fair, she wasn't the most beautiful woman, but Herbert Dewey swore he had never seen a woman with such extraordinary grace in his life.
No wonder Tang Haohan, who's usually so stubborn, suddenly blossomed. He said he was recognizing a younger sister; he probably just has a romantic relationship with her!
"Uncle, shall we play a game?" The boy blinked his big eyes and suddenly raised his hand.
The next second, Herbert Dewey saw a flash of silver light before his eyes, and he was put into a cage made of mental energy.
Before his two bodyguards could even react, they were swept up in a super-powerful tornado and sent flying into the sky.
The dozens of guards who remained outside the office building were also bound by the mental net at the same time, as Tang Haohan shouted, "Tie them all up!"
Soldiers rushed out of the camp and immediately put suppression rings on dozens of guards who were struggling desperately.
All of this happened so fast that Herbert Dewey couldn't even react before he was put into the suppression loop.
"Tang Haohan, how dare you rebel! Aren't you afraid that the authorities will treat all your soldiers as traitors and send them to a military court?" Herbert Dewey roared, his voice trembling with fear.
By this point, he already understood that Tang Haohan had long since colluded with the terrorists who were trying to assassinate his loyal followers.
However, he had been sending people to monitor his military camp all along, and no suspicious persons were found to have contacted him.
Wait, something's not right! He remembered that the spy he had planted in the military camp had sent him a message saying that Tang Haohan's sister and her family of three had returned.
They only met briefly in the military camp, and the sister's family left quickly. They were then arranged to stay at the most luxurious Starry Night Grand Hotel in Silvermoon City.
According to the people who were sent to follow them, they just went out shopping every day and there was nothing unusual. After following them for two days, he stopped following them.
It turns out that this so-called sister's family was the culprit behind the assassination of his loyal followers. Now they must have killed all his loyal followers and are finally coming to kill him.
It's ridiculous that he was so stupid as to offer himself up to be killed!
Herbert Dewey was filled with remorse at that moment!
He recalled that Tang Haohan was the most steadfast opponent of the slave trade back then, but his opposition was ruthlessly suppressed by the Alliance Council.
At that time, he was worried that Tang Haohan would rebel, but later he found that Tang Haohan had stopped.
If he weren't worried that the zombie horde might one day return, he certainly wouldn't have kept such a threatening menace as Tang Haohan around.
After all, at crucial moments, they still needed him to lead his legion to defend Silvermoon City. Since he had not rebelled, he did not bother to strip him of his military power.
Who would have thought that raising a tiger would turn out to be a threat!
Herbert Dewey's remorse went unnoticed, and a major upheaval occurred overnight in the upper echelons of Silvermoon City.
The Speaker was assassinated, and twelve senators conspired to frame him, but were swiftly suppressed by the Silverwing Legion.
Legion Commander Tang Haohan, in conjunction with the council, re-elected a new speaker—Long Ji, a rising star from the reclusive Long family.
The Long family has been living in seclusion in remote towns for years because they are dissatisfied with the government's open support for the slave trade.
Long Ji was not content with the status quo and left his family to make his own way in the world at a young age.
He used the name Yunji and, relying on his intelligence and powerful combat strength, gradually earned the position of Lord of Silvermoon City.
As the lord of the capital, his promotion to chairman of the alliance council is not abrupt. In addition, he has always had a good relationship with Tang Haohan, so it is most appropriate for him to serve as chairman.
In fact, Tang Haohan originally intended to support his fake brother-in-law to become the speaker, but unfortunately, Xiaobai had other plans. He only wanted to go to the Central Star, find the largest star map, and then accompany his fan back to its hometown.
Silverwing Star cannot be without official leadership. Since Xiaobai is unwilling, Tang Haohan can only support Long Ji, who is ambitious, capable, and, like him, firmly opposed to the slave trade, to take the throne.
While Long Ji was giving his inaugural speech on the StarNet, Xiao Bai and Bo Yiyan were busy fulfilling their promise—to help Ying Yi and Ying San kill their former family head, Hua Jingxin.
