Chapter 101

This rumor is too outrageous.

The law enforcement team controls the Supreme Court of the Empire, is loyal only to the emperor, is strict and solemn internally, and each member is a carefully selected elite.

How could they lose important evidence?

There was a lot of discussion online, and everyone treated this matter as a joke until more and more details were revealed, and everyone reacted belatedly.

This thing seems... probably... to be true?

Hmm? ? ?

The law enforcement team actually lost the intelligence of Master Xia?

[Let me sort it out. First, the third-year student Hans Dill reported that Xia Yan cheated in the practical test. His Majesty, who was watching the game, ordered the law enforcement team to investigate the matter. Huo Shan took away Xia Yan's intelligence to collect evidence, and now the intelligence is lost. 】

【Then there is no way to prove Xia Yan's innocence? 】

【I smell a conspiracy. Who could steal physical evidence from the law enforcement team? 】

【Such a vicious person made it impossible for Xia Yan to prove his innocence. He could only bear the stain of cheating on the exam. Could he be a spy sent by the Federation to discredit the reputation of the next heir? 】

【It was one of the next heirs. 】

Patrick: 【Uh... maybe Xia Yan really cheated? 】

【??? What does the person upstairs mean? 】

Patrick: 【I'm just guessing. You can just pretend you didn't hear it. 】

【Guessing without evidence is a rumor. Xia Yan has been in school for three years and has always been the top student in his grade. He has been the head student for three years. He didn't need to cheat. 】

This man named Patrick, intentionally or unintentionally, diverted the topic to Xia Yan's cheating. After being criticized by netizens, he went offline in disgrace.

At the same time, more people emerged.

【Someone's fans are so scary. He was besieged by a group of you just for making a reasonable guess. 】

【The law enforcement team is on high alert. There are only a few people who have the capital to steal things from them... Isn't it normal for Duke X to take a risk for his son's reputation? 】

【Do you now acquiesce that Xia Yan cheated? 】

【The funniest joke this year, the chief of S-level mental power cheated in a practical test. 】

【Who knows how he got the top position? I remember someone talked about X Yan in the campus forum, saying that he got good grades by sacrificing civilian classmates. 】

【I've heard about this too...】

【The rumors are getting more and more outrageous. Xia Yan can't do such a thing. 】

【Does no one suspect the Huo family? It is well known that Huo Ruihe and Xia Yan were going to duel because of a classmate. Once Xia Yan takes the position, Huo Ruihe will definitely not have a good ending. In order to protect his only son, Huo Shan... snap! 】 Neck-wiping expressionjpg.

【Secretary robbing? 】

【That makes sense! The law enforcement team is very strict, and only their own people can do anything. 】

【Bullshit, the Huo family has been loyal to the emperor since ancient times. This case was ordered by His Majesty himself. With the character of the Huo family, they will never deceive their subordinates and deliberately mess up the case. 】

The Huo family has followed the royal family for thousands of years, and every head of the family is the king's sharpest knife.

Therefore, many people like the Huo family because of their love for the family.

Now that the Huo family is slandered, these people can't sit still, and they have joined the battle, talking about all kinds of reasons and giving examples to explain for the Huo family.

【...You can't say too much. Huo Ruihe dared to take the initiative to provoke Xia Yan Gardner. Who knows what Huo Shanxi is thinking? You can't know a person's heart by knowing his face. 】

【Huo Ruihe is just a student and has not yet been in power. Can he represent the Huo family? 】After the man finished speaking, he thought for a moment, and then said in a sinister tone: [To take a step back, does the surname 'Gardner' mean that he is the king? It is still uncertain who will ascend to the top in the future. 】

[If Huang Jintong does not ascend the throne, do you want to find a waste? 】

[The Huo family is only loyal to the king. How can a person who cannot make the next head of the Huo family loyal to him be qualified to be the king? 】

The rhetorical questions from both sides made each other angry. Unconsciously, the words became more and more unpleasant, and the anger became heavier. They kept finding faults with each other.

The original one-point shortcoming was exaggerated to nine points.

Xia Yan and the supporters of the Huo family did not want their idols to be scolded, and they joined the battlefield one after another, resulting in constant hot searches on Star Network, and the incident further expanded.

What goes up must come down.

Xia Yan is arrogant and overbearing. No matter what the occasion, he always holds his chin high, with an arrogant look that says you are all trash. Some people think this is the aura of a king and like it very much; naturally, there are also people who dislike his arrogance.

However, Xia Yan was in the limelight before, and if anyone said anything bad about him, he would be scolded by the vast number of netizens, and even worse, he would be exposed, so everyone secretly hid their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Until today, the young man's "little braid" was caught, and they were finally able to vent their past dissatisfaction openly.

Under such circumstances, a video of the border battlefield came out of nowhere.

Hot Topic Floor.

1967th Floor: [Are you still arguing? ]

1968th Floor: [Isn't anyone paying attention to the hot search? I was so excited watching it. For the first time, I felt Grover's personality charm. I don't care about the golden eyes. From the character analysis, I feel that he would be a better candidate to inherit the throne. 】

【Grover Gillingham is just an A-level...】

【I was also impressed by his handsomeness. 】

【One is a frontier warrior who harvests Zerg in real life; the other is just a student on campus who tries to cheat in exams. The difference is huge. 】

【Wait, what are you talking about? 】

【Go upstairs and take a walk and you will understand. 】

Those who stayed up late to fight left the post in a daze.

The homepage of Star Network has been flooded with Grover's messages. The handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a black military uniform, drove a silver-white mecha to shuttle through the battlefield, and chopped off the heads of Zerg with crisp movements.

The short three-minute video is thrilling and eye-catching.

When everything is over, the man jumps out of the mecha, steps on the corpse of the Zerg and looks at the camera. His eyes are steady and firm, like the vast ocean, embracing his people.

In the misty gray sky, Grover seemed to be the only bright color, dazzling like starlight.

[So what if he's A-rank? He can still kill insects like cutting melons. ]

[Compared to Grover, Xia Yan is like a child. ]

[Indeed, I always felt that Xia Yan had a high rank and golden pupils, so he was definitely the most suitable candidate. But after watching the video, I suddenly realized that they both have royal blood, and the golden eyes are just a dominant gene; although the spiritual level is important, between a cheating S-rank and an A-rank who fights to protect us at the border, I choose the latter. ]

[Let's not talk about anything else, first of all, cheating is not a good character. ]

Regardless of the truth of the matter, netizens have taken the lead in convicting Xia Yan. No matter how those who liked Xia Yan shouted, "There is no evidence" and "Xia Yan is in the second grade and is not old enough to go to the battlefield," they were all drowned in the praise for Grover.

People always waver and believe what they want to believe.

What could be more exciting than pulling an arrogant noble off the altar?

In the tragic contrast between the two sides, Grover's support rate soared, and he was like the rising star of the imperial capital.

……………… Three forty in the morning. The center of power in the imperial capital, the magnificent royal palace was brightly lit, as bright as day.

The atmosphere in the conference hall was dull and depressing. The blond emperor sat high on the throne, his eyes sharp, and his expression unclear. The law enforcement officers of the Supreme Court stood below, their faces filled with shame and silence. Huo Shan had long lost his daytime smile: "...the person who stole the terminal was Henry Blair, a new member of the law enforcement team, 56 years old this year. He has now fled the imperial capital and is being hunted. This is my dereliction of duty. I didn't expect there would be a traitor. After the matter is over, I am willing to be punished." No! It should be said that I didn't expect someone to steal Xia Yan's terminal. Every case handled by the law enforcement team is very important. Everyone consciously tightens their skin, supervises each other internally, and is careful everywhere. But this case is really too simple. It's so simple that any small police officer can handle it. Everyone lost their vigilance, which gave the other party an opportunity to steal important evidence. It's embarrassing to tell anyone about this. What kind of stupid traitor is this? What's the point of stealing a terminal? Could it be that he knew he couldn't steal anything else, so he was unwilling to leave and deliberately wanted to annoy them? Compared to the simple team members, Huo Shan thought more. He thought of the public opinion on the Internet, and the video that suddenly appeared, overwhelming the crusade against Xia Yan. After a moment of silence, he continued: "Regarding the rumors against the victim on the Internet, I will use the official account to clarify." But netizens will not believe it, they will only think that the Xia family is using their power to suppress others. "When necessary, I will initiate the highest judicial procedure to--" erase the rumors and arrest the rumormongers. In the interstellar era, there is freedom of speech, and everyone can discuss politics at will. Except for the royal family, everyone has been criticized by netizens to some extent, but they all just laugh it off. It is definitely a big deal to erase the speech on the interstellar network without authorization. It is inevitable that human rights organizations will protest and say that the law enforcement team violates human rights and freedom. "Huo Shan." The blond emperor interrupted the man, "Don't do unnecessary things." The man raised his eyes in surprise. The emperor had a cold expression, his sky-blue eyes were emotionless, and his thin lips opened slightly: "I need an excellent heir, follow the previous process." The weak are devoured by the strong, which is the law of nature. Huo Shan was shocked, and countless thoughts passed through his mind, and finally combined into six words-Your Majesty understands everything. This is Grover's hunt for Xia Yan. He bribed Henry at some point and lurked in the law enforcement team. When necessary, he would use this chess piece to pull Xia Yan down from the altar. He also released his own battlefield video to control public opinion and step on the young man to get to the top. Grover is ambitious to ascend the throne and has been planning for this for a long time. He actually reached into his work area, which is really... uncomfortable. Huo Shan frowned slightly. Xia Yan is still more adorable. Huo Shan was full of thoughts, but his face showed no sign of it: "Yes, Your Majesty." The group left the conference hall and walked in silence for a while. When they were about to board the aircraft, Huo Shan suddenly spoke: "Aina, you come with me." The woman saluted: "Yes, Attorney." Huo Shan: "Send one... to..." The door of the aircraft closed, and the good sound insulation effect hid the unfinished words inside. A young man couldn't help but sighed: "I really envy Aina for being the Attorney's confidant." "Wait until you stop showing all your emotions on your face before we talk." "I wonder what they are talking about?" "I guess it's about catching a traitor." The dark-skinned girl shrugged, "We are really too embarrassed this time. We must catch that bastard Henry. I want to beat his face." "Hey! Stop chatting, get on the aircraft, we have to go back to work overtime." "This damn work." ... Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. At this moment, with the owner awakened, the smart butler adjusted the crystal chandelier of the castle to the appropriate brightness. The man was wearing silk pajamas and a thin cardigan, sitting on the sofa with an elegant and calm posture, smiling, seemingly gentle, but there was no smile in his eyes. "Such a big thing happened, why didn't anyone tell me?" "Your Majesty." The middle-aged man had sweat on his forehead, "It's just that the ignorant idiots on the Internet are jealous of the young master, and use this to vent their anger. It will be resolved soon." Xia Jiuqian clicked on the Star Network, pointing to the top trending search of "Xia Yan cheated", his voice was as cold as ice: "Resolved soon?" " ..." Thinking of the secret email he received from the law enforcement team in the middle of the night, Grover actually tried to step on his child to get to the top. Since there has been no movement for so many years, he should have been lying down and breathing quietly. The smile on Xia Jiuqian's face gradually disappeared: "Find some excellent border battle videos, post them online and let people promote them, so as to suppress Grover's popularity. After the public's attention is diverted, remove Xiao Yan's hot searches." If Xia Yan's hot searches were removed immediately, it would be too obvious.

"A-class warriors..." Duke Xia tapped the screen and watched Grover's smooth operation. He was indeed good in actual combat, but that was just good.

How many excellent people were there in the borderland? There were enough S-class warriors to form a regiment. They had rich actual combat experience and superb fighting skills. How could a young man in his twenties like Grover compare to them?

The middle-aged man received the order and immediately lowered his head to answer: "Yes, Your Excellency the Duke."

After that, Xia Jiuqian issued some more orders from a distance. Unknowingly, the sky turned pale. His wife stood on the spiral staircase with a bit of sleepiness between her brows: "Dear, what happened?"

"There are indeed some problems."

The woman supported her chin with one hand, leaned on the railing, raised her slender eyebrows, smiled charmingly, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Oh?"

Xia Jiuqian: "It's about Xiaoyan."

"..." The woman slowly stood up, her smile disappeared, and she looked cold, just like the angry Xia Jiuqian before, cold and penetrating, "Who bullied my baby?"
