Chapter 37 Locked Up
The more He Qing thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so after arriving at the capital planet, he went back without stopping.
Sun Tu also advised him: "Why don't you sneak back and see what's going on first? If things don't seem right, just run away."
[It should be nothing, maybe the general is a little angry.] He Qing came to the door of the general's mansion, but still looked inside with concern. The plants in the garden were full of vitality, and the koi were still crying for food. Everything seemed normal.
He Qing took a deep breath, swiped his card and entered the door. When he passed the garden, he ran to the pond to look at the koi. The koi were very lively today. He took out the feed from his arms and fed them: "Koi, koi, is the general still angry?"
The koi was busy eating and ignored him. He Qing picked a lotus flower from the side. He touched the lotus flower and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he prepared himself mentally. He walked over to open the door and swiped the card. With a "ding" sound, the door of the villa slowly opened.
He Qing looked inside and saw two rows of soldiers waiting to greet him. Duan Chenhui was standing at the innermost, wearing a military uniform. Qiao Yi was standing next to him, winking at him and trying to drive him away.
He Qing's heart trembled, thinking that something big must have happened.
When Sun Tu saw this scene, he immediately said: "Run! He is here to catch you. The previous message was just to coax you back! Catch the turtle in the jar!"
[…I’m not a turtle.]
[Do you think I'm kidding you?] Sun Tu was disappointed with his failure.
He Qing was also a little nervous. He walked over step by step, but Duan Chenhui still had no expression.
He Qing walked up to him and raised the flowers in his hand: "General, I'm back."
Duan Chenhui looked down at him without moving his hands. He Qingju held the flower for a while until he was a little tired. He was about to take it back when Duan Chenhui suddenly grabbed his wrist and said, "There are some things you need to explain clearly. Follow me."
He Qing's heart tightened and he turned back to ask his mentor for help. What on earth had happened to his mentor?
Qiao Yi acted helpless: I told you not to come back! It's fine if you come back, but you're still in the mood to pick flowers! He almost laughed out loud!
He Qing thought that he didn't know what was going on yet. He was taken by Duan Chenhui to the master bedroom, which was also Duan Chenhui's room. The door behind him was closed. He Qing looked back, but he didn't have the key to the general's room. Was this really a small dark room?
He turned around and looked at Duan Chenhui. Duan Chenhui walked to the desk without saying a word and pulled out a document from the drawer: "Sign it."
He Qing put down the flowers, walked over and took a look, her eyes widened slightly. It was written in black and white on the paper. This was the divorce agreement, and Duan Chenhui had already signed it. The date was the day they got married...
Duan Chenhui had been prepared for this a long time ago.
Sun Tu was so happy: [Little Buddhist, hurry up and sign! If you sign, we can go back to the cultivation world! Even if he wants to lock you up, you can always run away! Oh, by the way, just use telekinesis to get the lotus seeds back. ]
He Qing didn't hear what Sun Tu said. He picked up the document blankly and saw that it was indeed a divorce agreement. He looked up at Duan Chenhui and said, "So the general had already prepared it."
"This is what you've always wanted." Duan Chenhui looked down at him, "Sign it and you'll be free."
"Why do you suddenly ask me to sign?" He Qingyi frowned and slammed the document on the table. He didn't know why he suddenly felt angry.
Duan Chenhui remained calm: "I don't think there is any need for a reason, it's just because our agreement has ended."
"I don't want to sign now." He Qing turned and left.
Duan Chenhui behind him suddenly said: "He Qing, we are from different worlds."
He Qing paused and looked back. Duan Chenhui was staring at him: "Sign it."
Sun Tu also said: [He is right, you are a monk, he is a mortal, in a few decades he will be just a pile of ashes. ]
He Qing was stunned for a long time. He walked over again, looked at the divorce papers, picked up the pen, and signed his name on it in a few strokes.
"You're right. The general should be satisfied with this." After He Qing signed his name, he suddenly felt that the thread of their marriage was broken. He put down his pen and looked up at Duan Chenhui. "Can I leave now?"
"Not yet." Duan Chenhui looked at the divorce papers, clenched his fist, put it away and put it back in the drawer, "You have been reported for hiding Zerg eggs, and there are still some things to investigate."
"So that's why you forced me to sign?"
"No, I have already prepared the divorce papers."
"Yes, it was on the day we got married. Even I didn't expect it." He Qing thought about it. He really didn't expect that just after they signed the marriage certificate, Duan Chenhui signed the divorce papers. It was very quick and neat.
"Yes." Duan Chenhui admitted frankly that no matter what accidents happened in the middle, this divorce certificate was to ensure that the result would not be wrong, which would be good for both him and He Qing.
"The general is indeed prescient and level-headed."
"Not as unexpected as Mr. He."
The two of them stared at each other, their gazes somewhat intimidating.
Sun Tu looked left and right and suddenly felt a strong smell of gunpowder.
He Qing was silent for a moment, then turned around and sat on the sofa, staring at the lotus on the coffee table: "That is not an ordinary egg, nor is it an ordinary Zerg egg. You can take it to verify it."
He took out the egg and put it on the coffee table. Unknowingly, the egg had grown very big.
He Qing frowned. The evil cultivator had indeed reported him in order to force him to hand over the Zerg eggs.
"We will find out." Duan Chenhui took the egg and left.
He Qing raised his head and looked around. He realized that he was now under house arrest. He lowered his head and used the terminal to surf the Internet. There was no information on the Internet that he was hiding Zerg eggs. This matter had not yet become a big deal, but it was likely that it would become a big deal soon.
Sure enough, a few days later, no one knew who "deliberately" leaked the news, and many people began to verbally attack him and even Duan Chenhui. Everyone hated the Zerg, and there were even aliens who took advantage of the situation to discredit Duan Chenhui.
[It turns out that He Qing is hiding Zerg eggs? Is he a spy? ]
[Does the general know about this? ! What is going on! ]
[The general will definitely handle this impartially! ! ]
[This is so abominable! He must be thrown into prison! ]
He Qing took a quick glance and turned off the screen.
Sun Tu said with a "tsk". [The war of public opinion has no effect on you. I still suggest you run away now.]
He Qing said nothing: "Wait a little longer."
"Wait? Wait until you are thrown into prison?" Sun Tu walked back and forth in the golden bell anxiously. "I heard that the prisons in the Star Interstellar are heavily guarded and require handcuffs. But fortunately you were not taken away for interrogation. The interrogation in the Star Interstellar is also very powerful."
——
On the other side, Duan Chenhui was in the conference room. Dr. Qin looked at the Zerg egg on the table and said, "Because of the strange energy protecting it, we can't scan what's inside."
"But the Zerg detector did detect that it was a Zerg egg."
"General Duan, shouldn't you hand that man over to us for questioning?" One congressman stared at Duan Chenhui. "Relatives are not allowed to interfere in the case. I hope the general will not shield the criminal."
Duan Chenhui turned his eyes to him and said, "I divorced him a long time ago, how can I cover up for him?"
When Duan Chenhui said this, everyone was shocked and no one spoke for a while.
The king looked at Duan Chenhui, then at the person opposite Duan Chenhui, lowered his head to take a sip of tea, and sighed slightly: "In this case, let's wait for this egg to be born and see if it is a Zerg."
"Your Majesty! This is clearly a Zerg egg!"
"Your Majesty! He Qing might be a spy from an enemy country!"
"Dr. Qin said that the egg will hatch soon, and we will broadcast it live for everyone to see. That's it." The king stood up. "The meeting is over."
Everyone looked at each other, some of them unwillingly took the documents and said to Duan Chenhui before leaving: "I hope the general will not let the prisoner escape."
Duan Chenhui smiled at him and said, "I also hope that those who want to take advantage of someone's misfortune will not resort to any means necessary. I have already ordered that this be kept secret. Why did the news leak out?"
The other party choked and turned away.
Duan Chenhui stood up and asked someone to take the egg back to the institute. Dr. Qin whispered to him, "Public opinion may be unfavorable to you."
"It doesn't matter." Duan Chenhui picked up the documents and walked out of the meeting room.
"Then you get a divorce..." Dr. Qin asked hesitantly.
"It's true." Duan Chenhui paused, "It's not because of this incident in essence. It's just a deep-seated conflict between us."
"..." Dr. Qin thought, but this incident broke out...
——
He Qing stood in front of the window and looked outside. There were already people protesting outside the General's Mansion, and there were also many reporters waiting here. If it weren't for the protective shield of the General's Mansion, they might have rushed in.
He Qing took another look and walked back. Sun Tu said, "The people are the easiest to be instigated. This must be done by Duan Chenhui's political enemies. If this continues, his faith will be affected."
He Qing sat down and looked at the green book on the coffee table. It was red when they got married and turned green when they divorced.
Sun Tu took a glance and said, "He really wants to let you go."
"Indeed." He Qing repeated, "Let's go after this is over."
Sun Tu nodded: [You finally figured it out. A few days ago I thought you were going to commit suicide.]
"I didn't." He Qing looked down at the terminal. The demon cultivator sent him a message: [I didn't expect Duan Chenhui to defend you. I told you that it was mine, so don't blame me.]
The evil cultivator used an ordinary person's account.
He Qing glanced at the avatar and asked: [What else do you want? ]
[Nothing, I just want to get my things back, bye.] The other party didn't say anything else. He Qing frowned and looked at other messages, which were sent by Zhang Yi and others.
Shi Lei: [What the hell! What on earth happened to you? Were you framed? ]
Zhang Yi: [This news is so scary, are you okay? ]
Zhang Lin: [It looks like there will be a lot of trouble.]
Chu Yan: [If you are not dead yet, please respond. ]
He Qing replied to them: [I have nothing to do, but I can’t come out for the time being.]
Everyone: [... Got it. Take care of yourself. ]
After He Qing finished talking to them, he heard a knock on the door. He walked over and opened the door. The person outside was not Duan Chenhui, but the butler, who came to bring him prison food.
"Thank you." He Qing took it and looked towards the corridor again. The corridor was full of Duan Chenhui's personal guards, who seemed afraid that he would run away.
He Qing closed the door. He rarely saw Duan Chenhui in the past few days. He opened the lunch box and took out the bowl and chopsticks, and suddenly saw a small note.
[Mr. He, if you cannot prove your innocence by then, we will come to the execution ground to rescue you.]
He Qing knew at a glance that it was Professor Qiao who thought the matter was not serious enough. He took out his terminal and signaled to him: [Professor, I have already submitted my homework. You don’t need to come to me again.]
[No, you have to rewrite it. Do you want to fail the course? ]
[Yes, that's it. Take care, mentor.] He Qing thought that he still had to prepare for the worst, wondering if that evil cultivator would come up with any bad ideas again.
