Chapter 74 Who is it?
◎Vase◎
Saturday morning.
"It's me!"
"It must be me!"
"I think it's me!"
In the living room downstairs, Josephine, Luo Wuming, and the Covia siblings had an argument, all over the friend mentioned in the third item in Luo Wusheng's blog post.
The door opened from the outside and Ulysses entered.
"It can't be you?" Luo Wuming looked at him.
Ulysses rolled his eyes at him, made no reply, and walked straight behind Josephine.
She asked worriedly, "What happened to Manda? Did you hit her?"
"It's not me." Ulysses lowered his eyes, his body straight, like a responsible personal attendant.
"I saw Manda lying on the ground on my way home last night. When I got closer I realized he was covered in wounds."
This set of excuses was his cover-up for Su Ye.
Celia propped her chin up and looked at the list on the screen.
"That's strange. Who could be so cute and do what we want to do?"
Albert echoed his sister's words, saying, "It's hard to find someone who can defeat Manda, is on the capital planet, and has to side with us!"
"Could it be Su Ye near the alley?" Josephine checked the information carefully because her brother was nearby, not wanting others to just browse.
She glanced back at Ulysses, her eyes fixed on the back of his hand that suddenly pressed against her shoulder.
Albert said: "Su Ye, isn't he from Ander's side? How could he possibly beat Manda up?"
"I think it's possible." Luo Wuming stroked his chin and said in a serious analysis, "Su Ye has always been a pervert. Although he stands on Ander's side, when he gets crazy, he only picks on Alphas. It's not certain whether it's him."
Celia asked, "Ulysses, you were there, what do you think? Is it similar?"
She was really curious about who did what they wanted to do.
"I don't know. Judging from the traces, the other party is very strong."
Ulysses' body tensed up when he thought of last night's scene, but he adjusted his breathing and relaxed.
Although Su Ye was a pervert, his talent was unmatched among the younger generation. Even someone as strong as him was severely injured. He couldn't even estimate the strength of the unknown being last night.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and barely broke free from the shadows.
Ulysses opened his eyes, maintaining his usual composure. "All the bones in Manda's body were broken, especially his neck. He only had a slim chance of survival."
“Tsk tsk tsk.”
After hearing these simple words, several people present felt uncomfortable all over and touched their arms, knees and necks.
"How painful it must be!"
Josephine imagined it and felt a tingling sensation on the top of her head.
"All the bones in his body were broken. It was a bit tragic."
Luo Wuming, who was most eager to beat Manda, shrank his shoulders and said, "This must be the work of that pervert Su Ye, right?"
Celia rubbed the back of her neck, rubbing the chill away. "You've convinced me. This looks like something he could pull off. Don't forget, Manda is also an Alpha, and his family is in trouble right now."
"It's still near Luanxiang. Everyone knows that the medical resources in Luanxiang are better than all the hospitals in the entire capital planet combined. Giving him a breath is just enough to keep him alive." Albert rubbed his arm and added his analysis.
Celia was pragmatic and corrected her brother: "Luanxiang is the pinnacle of medical resources related to Alpha and Omega, but not all types of medical resources are abundant. As for Beta-related medical resources, the top hospitals in the capital are still comparable to it."
Albert: "Sister, is this the point?!"
Celia: "That's not the point, but you were wrong. I'm just correcting it."
"Okay, let's get back to the topic." Luo Wuming interrupted their usual bickering. He looked around and said, "So now it's basically confirmed that the person who attacked Manda was Su Ye, right?"
Josephine studied the information at the scene and raised a question: "Hmm...but it's a small dark alley. If Su Ye did it, would he care about not letting others know?"
Luo Wuming nodded in agreement with her words, thought for a moment, and then said, "But apart from Su Ye, I really can't think of anyone else."
Ulysses, who was standing behind Josephine, broke the silence and said, "Don't you think that removing human bones, especially the neck bones, is very similar to a person?"
"What?!"
“Who does it look like?!”
"We know each other?!"
"It can't be you?!"
Ulysses pulled up the corners of his mouth to hide his bitter smile.
He also wanted to beat Manda, but someone got there first and that person also beat Su Ye.
He wanted to be that strong, but unfortunately he wasn't.
He said, "When fighting against the Demon Lord, he always kills with one strike, breaking the connection between the mecha's cervical vertebrae."
Celia stood up and said excitedly, "Really?! What you said makes sense, but why would the demon attack Manda? There's no reason!"
From her name, we can see her identity. After being defeated several times, she gradually became a little fan girl of the Demon Lord.
"Ah! Could it really be her? I set up an exclusive online reminder for her, but she never received it. I suspected that there was something wrong with my device. I logged into the Star Realm to check every day, but she never came online." Josephine was also very excited.
When the Demon Lord was mentioned, everyone present became excited.
They are different from those who only saw the Demon Lord fight in person or in the live broadcast room. They have experienced three months of devilish battles and have all been tortured to the point of PTSD.
But yeah.
Although they were abused badly, they made rapid progress.
Whether it is a virtual battle in the star realm or an actual battle after entering the school.
They are only evenly matched against each other, and they win more than they lose against other people or seniors.
In addition to the rapid growth of their own strength, their fighting mentality has also become more stable.
After experiencing the infinite fear of racking their brains but still failing to turn the tables on the Demon Lord, no matter who they fight, their mentality is as steady as an old dog.
When encountering a strong opponent, he can calmly analyze the situation and take the opportunity to find the opponent's weaknesses.
Many times they have won over the older students with a slight advantage, and have accumulated a lot of experience over and over again.
However, in this situation where they win more than they lose, they actually miss the time when they were abused by the Demon Lord.
Each of them ignited the belief of wanting to defeat her, although they knew it was unlikely, but the victories in recent days made them a little inflated.
"I've been missing her a little lately. It's abusive, but she's making great progress."
Albert had recently played several games with his sister, both of them playing solo, without even having the chance to use the tactics they were still cold-warning about.
"Indeed, in a month at most, the top ten of our school's ranking list will have been replaced."
Celia sighed. "It seems like there's no joint battle for freshmen in their first year. I don't want to spend the next few months fighting you guys."
This makes no sense at all.
Luo Wuming sighed: "The style looks very similar to that of the Demon Lord, but she has no grudge against Manda, and we don't know each other in real life. She can't possibly beat Manda up for her cousin."
Ulysses said nothing, but held Josephine's shoulder and looked towards the stairs.
On the third floor, besides Luo Wusheng, there is also Shi Hanqiao.
He touched his neck, and he still remembered clearly the feeling of being whipped and strangled by the latter during military training.
She just stood there, without even moving a step, and killed them in seconds.
He has hidden powerful strength, can kill with one blow, and is close to Luo Wusheng.
Is it just a coincidence?
But how could Manda explain that they were on the capital star and Shi Hanqiao was on the West Asia star.
"What are you talking about?"
Luo Wusheng walked down the stairs and around the corner.
Ulysses briefly recounted their guesses and asked him, "Have you figured out who it is?"
"Su Ye, he's been a pervert for a long time."
Luo Wusheng pretended to be ignorant even though he knew the truth. Shi Hanqiao was doing this for him, so he had to protect her.
He heard the word "Demon Lord" from a distance, but he had not yet found any evidence that she was the Demon Lord, so naturally he would not reveal her identity.
Ulysses turned to him and said, "Su Ye, there's no need to let him out of the alley. You won't let Mander go, right?"
"Even if I want to let him go, it depends on whether the Bai family is willing."
Luo Wusheng did not directly answer his plan, but only mentioned Mande's enemies.
More than two years later, the news that Shi Hanqiao was doubly disabled was revealed. The Bai family wanted to suppress the news, but Mander took the money and did not do anything. Eventually, the news became known throughout the galaxy.
If Mander had come to the house to apologize, the matter would have been over. However, he took the money and did not do the job. He also relied on his last name, Russell, to be arrogant and not take the Bai family seriously.
The Bai family will definitely not let him go.
As for Luo Wusheng, he will not let Mande go either.
For himself, and also because of what happened two years ago, even though she was not herself at that time.
Ulysses said, "It depends on your opinion. If Ander is willing to intervene, the Bai family may not kill Mander."
"It would be better to replace the position of Minister of the Imperial News Department with one of our own."
Luo Wusheng walked to the coffee table and changed the water in the flowers in the vase.
"The water must be changed every three days, or even every five days."
He poured new water into the vase, put it back in its place, and fiddled with the slightly wilted petals.
"The same goes for these flowers. They should be changed every two weeks, and no more than once a month at most."
"Switching back and forth is so troublesome."
Luo Wusheng placed his palm against the cold bottle.
Ulysses pushed the vase to the edge of the table, where the vase was usually hanging in the air, making people worry about the fate of the vase.
"No matter how sturdy a vase is, it will break easily and needs to be replaced."
"You have a point." Luo Wusheng turned around and walked to the single sofa to sit down, and said to Ulysses behind him: "Push the vase back. Shi Hanqiao likes it very much. Don't break it for her, I will be embarrassed."
Ulysses tapped the table and pushed the vase back into place.
He turned around and walked behind Josephine again.
Glancing at the empty corner of the stairs, he turned to look at Luo Wusheng, "You seem to care about Shi Hanqiao quite a bit. You all know that she likes that vase."
"I also know that Luo Wuming likes the silver chopsticks with floral carvings on the right side of the kitchen chopstick basket, Josephine likes the second peacock bowl on the left in the cupboard, Celia likes the third jade bowl on the right, and Albert likes the set of teacups on the table."
"Shi Hanqiao is my friend, and you are my friends and teammates. I know your preferences are not strange."
Everyone nodded happily. Of course they were happy to be told what to do.
Luo Wusheng looked directly at Ulysses, "I also know that you like the chair Josephine is sitting on."
"Hey, do you like the chair I'm sitting on? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Josephine turned and looked at her brother behind her. She quickly stood up and said, "You sit down. I'll move to another place."
Ulysses looked at Luo Wusheng steadily, then retracted his gaze and fell on Josephine.
He put his hands on her shoulders and made her sit back down. "This is your seat. The same applies to me sitting next to you."
He sat on Josephine's left.
Seeing that the chair her brother was sitting on looked the same as hers, Josephine stopped being modest and thought that he must also like the chair he was sitting on.
"By the way, why don't you see Shi Hanqiao? The campus forums were saying you two were inseparable a while ago."
Ulysses stroked the armrest of the chair. Unfortunately, after the campus forum adopted the real-name system, not many people dared to speak boldly.
"Are you looking for me?"
Ulysses' breathing stopped, his straight back stiffened instantly, and a chill rose from his spine to the top of his head.
The voice of female A enveloped him with an invisible sense of fear. As a raider who had been lurking in the shadows for years, he had not even noticed her arrival!
Shi Hanqiao's figure appeared in his sight, and Ulysses' stiff back relaxed a little. He saw her walking straight towards Luo Wusheng.
