Xie Linyuan hated the scars he left on Si Jin's body when he captured her, so he killed her.
Sang Qingyu was in excruciating pain as her internal optical brain was removed, and multiple neurons snapped off.
Not only did he become completely insane, but he also had to endure daily torture in the nano prison.
Perhaps, one day, if the old emperor is unhappy, he will vanish into thin air.
With the crown prince gone, the eldest prince's status rose rapidly, and he began to pay attention to the crown prince's former subordinates.
Including... Xie Linyuan.
One day, after seeing Si Jin off, Ping Ning brought over Sang Qingyu's crippled personal computer.
He whispered, "Your Highness, please take a look. This is the data from Sang Qingyu's personal computer that I spent five days repairing."
"The most suspicious thing is this recording."
Pingning opened the recording; the sound was crackling, but Sang Qingyu's voice could be vaguely discerned.
"You never intended to help me, and you never even intended to kill Xu Sijin in the first place, did you?!"
After rambling on for a while, he replied with one sentence.
"Yes, I would never kill him, because... I love him."
The eldest prince frowned slightly. "That voice that says 'I love him' sounds familiar. Play it again."
The recording started playing again, and after listening to it several times despite the noise, the eldest prince finally realized what was happening.
The voice was: "Xie, Lin, Yuan".
Ping Ning nodded: "That's what I think too. I've suspected Xie Linyuan's identity for a long time."
"He might be a spy sent by the Nebula Empire, as is Xu Sijin, but why do you trust that rabbit so much..."
"Xu Sijin did help us after all," the First Prince said calmly. "Without him, we wouldn't have been able to bring down the Crown Prince so quickly."
"He's a good asset, and I don't want to doubt him for now."
"However, isn't the new commander-in-chief of the Nebula Empire cooperating with us? We can ask him for a secret contact point and test the waters... Xie Linyuan."
"If he is an undercover agent, then I have done a great service to the Federation, and I am the rightful new crown prince."
"Yes, sir." Ping Ning accepted the order and went to investigate. Within a few days, he found the contact point to test Xie Linyuan.
He even killed the undercover agent at the liaison point and used his personal computer to send a message to Xie Linyuan.
[Urgent matter, concerning the safety of the empire. See you tomorrow night at 8 PM at the usual place.]
… …
Before leaving, Xie Linyuan had nothing to do, so he chatted with Si Jin for a few moments.
He instructed, "The Empire has given me new orders. I need to meet with my contact. Wait for me at home. I'll buy you a strawberry cake when I get back."
"Okay." Si Tutu was so exhausted from his antics that she didn't even bother to lift her eyelids.
He waved his hand and shrank into the blanket, closing his eyes and falling asleep as he had done countless times before.
Xie Linyuan kissed him before leaving, his eyes filled with a sweet, peaceful feeling.
It's so frustrating for Jinjin to be cooped up in the house all day.
When we return to the Nebula Empire, we must hold a grand wedding for him.
The live broadcast on the entire network gave his young son endless glory.
Xie Linyuan put on his clothes and left. When he was about 2,000 meters away from the contact point, he realized something was wrong.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, and by the moonlight, the reflections of several high-energy laser cannon scopes could be seen.
He tried sending a message to the contact's personal computer.
【are you still there? 】
The other end replied quickly: "Yes."
Xie Linyuan was shocked, and his lips turned deathly pale instantly.
No, the code is wrong.
The other party should reply: "I won't leave unless you come."
The contact person is in trouble!
He... is going to be in trouble too!
