Chapter 37 I want to find someone who has been kidnapped
"This matter truly has nothing to do with me! Your Highness, Your Highness—" the official who was kneeling and begging for mercy before him raised his head in horror and said, "I know nothing at all, absolutely nothing!!"
Fu Yunlu smiled and put the gun to his forehead: "It has nothing to do with you?"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes." The official trembled all over. "I'll intensify the investigation later. Someone must have framed me..."
"Fu Wanqian." Fu Yunlu said the name gently and said to him, "It seems you are a good dog to Fu Wanqian."
"I, the eldest prince and I have absolutely no—"
Before the official could finish his words, a bullet pierced his head, and brain matter mixed with blood splattered onto the hem of Fu Yunlu's clothes. He kicked the man's body, and he fell down from a kneeling position.
On the official's desk sat a framed photo of him, his wife, and their child. Fu Yunlu glanced at it briefly and said to Ji Shun, "Send someone to investigate whether his wife's family is connected to Fu Wanqian. If so, kill them all."
Mr. Fu seemed to be in a bad mood. Ji Shun silently agreed, but his mind began to wander: Could it be because of the susceptible period? That's right, what can Liang Guanyue, an alpha, do?
"If the Crown Prince knew about this..." the District Chief, who had witnessed everything, said tremblingly, "Shouldn't we be more cautious..."
"Caution?" Fu Yunlu smiled, turning around and sizing up the portly middle-aged man before him. He tapped his face with the barrel of his gun, the sound like slapping a piece of pork. "Someone in your area is actually using prohibited technology, and not just recently. I haven't even reported your mistake to the leader yet, and you're already questioning my decision."
The cold sweat from the district chief soaked the entire cloth on his back, and he shrank his neck like a quail: "The Fourth Prince is right, I have been too talkative."
Logically speaking, even though Fu Yunlu is the prince of Nino Bingya, he is the district chief of District 06 and does not need to be so cautious. The difficulty lies in the badge on Fu Yunlu's chest - it symbolizes the highest level of supervisory power.
This level is beyond the public's understanding of supervision - meaning that if Fu Yunlu really caught any concrete evidence against him, his fate would be the same as that of the official who was executed today.
Authentic and reliable evidence would be Fu Yunlu's ticket to unimpeded access in District 06. Without having to report to higher authorities, with just a flick of the finger, the 'criminal' could be beheaded.
"I'll give you a week to clean up the black market." Fu Yunlu fired a shot at his feet. "Then, come back to me with a list of all buyers who have participated more than five times. If there's any discrepancy with the information I have," he said with a half-smile, "next time, it won't be the floor you hit."
"Yes, yes, I understand!"
Fu Yunlu turned around, took off the black gloves that were stained with blood, and threw them into the trash can. The soles of his shoes were stained with blood, and every step he took left a blurry red footprint on the marble floor.
Without even turning his head, he asked Ji Shun, "How's the research going on with that insect-transformed omega we bought?"
Ji Shun said, "The people at the research institute just sent a report this morning saying that the insect transformation has reached 50%. Compared to last week, the fusion rate has increased by 10%."
Fu Yunlu frowned: "That is to say, he might slowly become——"
Ji Shun nodded: "Slowly turn into a bug."
"If we could stop the Zerg's genes from devouring human genes, this technology would have some military value," Fu Yunlu commented. "Unfortunately, in the end, they didn't transform into perfect 'human-insects'. Instead, they became just ugly bugs."
Ji Shun lowered his eyebrows and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
"I heard from Clave that Fu Chaoyang held a charity event right after I left the main city?"
"That's right, Your Highness. I heard that the eldest prince was also there."
Fu Yunlu sneered: "Two unpresentable wild dogs, actually wanting to huddle together for warmth."
"We might be able to use this incident in District 06 to bring down the Crown Prince."
"He wouldn't be stupid enough to do such a thing. Perhaps his men wanted to make money, so they planned the black market." Fu Yunlu laughed, "But since his men have given me an opportunity, how can I not accept this kindness? I will always remember the revenge for that assassination."
Fu Yunlu was busy all afternoon. Normally, she had to go to the research institute in the evening, but Sheng Zhiqiang had been called in several times by Liang Guanyue in the morning. She was still in the susceptible period and really couldn't spare any extra energy.
He said he would go to the research institute tomorrow morning. Ji Shun asked worriedly, "Sir, how is your health? Do you need me to ask Dr. Nora to rush to District 06?"
"No, I know what I'm doing."
Ji Shun continued: "About Mr. Liang..."
When talking about Liang Guanyue, Fu Yunlu didn't smile as gently as before. Instead, she frowned irritably: "What's wrong with him?"
"I told him your address, sir."
"Guan Yue told me that he asked you and that's why you gave it to him."
Ji Shun quickly said, "It's because your condition is very unstable, Your Highness. I think since Mr. Liang is your lover, he naturally has the responsibility to resolve the susceptible period..."
Fu Yunlu became even more annoyed when she heard the words "resolve the susceptible period" and even exhaled to calm herself down.
"……gentlemen?"
"Next time..." Fu Yunlu rubbed his forehead. The anxiety and anger that he had suppressed with great difficulty before going out began to surge up again.
Ji Shun thought Fu Yunlu was unhappy that he had revealed his itinerary without permission, so he hurriedly said, "Next time I will definitely ask for your opinion in advance."
"..." Fu Yunlu said, "It's okay in the main city, but District 06 is not safe for him. You should think carefully next time."
Ji Shun was stunned. He originally thought that Fu Yunlu was unhappy that he had "leaked" the secret to outsiders, but now it seemed that he was actually dissatisfied that he had not considered Liang Guanyue's personal safety before informing her.
Ji Shun felt unfamiliar with the outstanding and proud prince in front of him: "...I don't understand."
Fu Yunlu glanced at him.
"He's an alpha, right?"
"What do you want to say?"
"How can he solve the problem of His Highness's susceptible period? He's an alpha!" Ji Shun's jealousy swallowed up his reason, and he sarcastically said, "Such a poor man, even his gender is wrong, he is not worthy of His Highness at all——"
Fu Yunlu looked at him coldly, then smiled: "But this is not something a beta like you can point fingers at."
Ji Shun's face turned pale instantly. Fu Yunlu seemed not to notice his hurt expression and continued, "At this time, I don't want to spend extra energy looking for a satisfactory helper. Ji Shun, if you don't want to work for me on behalf of the Ji family, don't beat around the bush and say something that offends me."
After saying this, Fu Yunlu didn't want to push Ji Shun too far, lest he become rebellious. She would send someone to secretly deal with him: "You have always been my confidant, but you must know how far to extend your hand. You must know when to stop."
After Fu Yunlu taught Ji Shun a lesson, she couldn't help but feel a headache when she thought about facing Liang Guanyue when she returned home.
What does it mean that we are not suitable to be entangled together, and what does it mean to leave him?
Fu Yunlu didn't understand how Liang Guanyue could say such cold words after completely marking him, as if she was completely unaffected by the pheromones.
This made me seem a little ridiculous because I wanted to stick close to him and was even reluctant to go out to handle official business because I couldn't bear to leave him.
By then, Fu Yunlu had already raised his fist. He grabbed Liang Guanyue's collar and said coldly, "Say it again."
Liang Guanyue stared at his hand and smiled slightly, "Want to hit me again? This time I will fight back, Fu Yunlu."
"I'm asking you a question!!" Fu Yunlu was so angry at Liang Guanyue's attitude that she almost fainted. "What did you mean just now?!"
"What I mean is..." Liang Guanyue paused for two seconds, then lowered her eyes, "We are not suitable."
"What else is inappropriate?" Fu Yunlu wanted to kill him in her heart, but she didn't even lower her raised fist. "Which request did I not agree to? Ah? Liang Guanyue, what else do you think is inappropriate?!"
"..." Liang Guanyue didn't understand why she said that. Perhaps she had been infected with madness by Fu Yunlu. Now facing the other party's blazing anger, she could only bother to calm him down. "...Brother, don't you understand at all?"
"What am I supposed to understand?"
Fu Yunlu thought that at the age of thirty, he was considered young and promising in Ninoy Aquino, but when faced with a child who was nearly ten years younger than him, Fu Yunlu had no way of understanding his ever-changing thoughts.
"If you want to start a company in the future, I'll help you. If you need money, I'll give it to you. If you want to earn your own money, I'll contact Clough and ask him to hire you as a tutor. If you don't want to be labeled, I'll never touch your glands. If you don't want to be under someone else's control, then fine, I'll give you rice and get you promoted."
Fu Yunlu gnashed her teeth and questioned Liang Guanyue: "What on earth are you not satisfied with? What else do you want? I have given you everything I can give you——"
Liang Guanyue interrupted, "I want the two of us to be together forever." He thought he was uttering a curse, but he had to take responsibility for his previous inappropriate softness. "Just the two of us, brother, you can't fulfill my wish for that."
“…” Fu Yunlu was stunned.
Liang Guanyue laughed self-deprecatingly. "Look, you're speechless." He pushed Fu Yunlu. "But my coming and going are originally decided by you. My words don't have any real meaning."
Fu Yunlu was speechless and slammed the door shut before leaving.
He had wanted to discuss this matter with Liang Guanyue when he came back, and wanted to tell him that he really had no way of marrying an alpha - Liang Guanyue might not have a strong family background, but he could not be an alpha.
In today's world of low birth rates and the deliberate suppression of homosexual relationships, marrying an alpha prince is practically a death sentence. Not only will Fu Liaoyan be leery of him, but public outcry will also put Fu Yunlu at the center of public opinion.
By then, even Liang Guanyue would be affected.
Since he enjoys the privileges of being a royal family and wants to hold on to power forever, he must pay something.
He believed that Liang Guanyue should be able to understand and be sympathetic.
Fu Yunlu had been holding back words for the entire afternoon, wanting to speak to this innocent child, and was also prepared to face Liang Guanyue's disappointment and sadness.
She would compensate him, whether it was herself or someone else, as long as he could afford it, Fu Yunlu swore that she would give it to Liang Guanyue.
But when he opened the door and saw the messy room with obvious signs of a fight, Fu Yunlu called out to Liang Guanyue with uneasiness, but no one responded.
Liang Guanyue's terminal was placed on the table in the living room.
His body seemed to lose control in an instant. Fu Yunlu's legs went soft and he could hardly stand up. His fingers were shaking and he had to hold on to the sofa. His stomach was churning and he felt nauseous.
Fu Yunlu opened the terminal and contacted the military district commander of District 06. The other party seemed surprised that the army needed to be mobilized at this time.
Fu Yunlu ordered word by word: "I want to mobilize the army."
"I'm deeply sorry, Your Highness the Fourth Prince. Even though you currently hold the highest supervisory authority, that doesn't include the right to mobilize the military district's troops."
"You can reject my request impartially," Fu Yunlu threatened in a deep voice, "or you can pray that I don't find any evidence against you during my time in District 06."
“…”
"I'm looking for someone who's been kidnapped."
The other party said in disbelief: "You mobilized the army just to find a kidnapped person?"
"Listen carefully, he's mine!" Fu Yunlu said hoarsely, like a frantic and helpless lion. "If anything happens to him in District 06, even if I die, I will completely reshuffle all the high-ranking officials in District 06."
"If you don't believe it, you can try it."
-----------------------
The author has something to say: The one who falls in love first lives a hardship every day...
One of the main reasons why Fu Yunlu fell in love with Liang Guanyue was that he was a proud person who lacked a positive sense of being needed.
Fu Yunlu's pride made him look down on his lovers. For example, some of the omegas he had hugged before were actually very romantic and could give Fu Yunlu love, but those people did not have the ability to make Fu Yunlu look them in the eye.
Neither looking up nor looking down can produce love. Liang Guanyue was wrong about one thing. Fu Yunlu did not look at him straight in the eyes because she fell in love with him. Instead, when she shifted from looking down to looking straight in the eyes, she gradually fell in love with Liang Guanyue.
He gradually began to see Liang Guanyue as Liang Guanyue, not a doll that could be fooled at will. At this time, Liang Guanyue deceived him and revealed her positive needs for him - she longed for Fu Yunlu to love him, hoped that he could live a happy life with her, and cared about his health when he was working non-stop.
These positive demands are rare for Fu Yunlu, who has always played the role of a well-behaved and perfect person. The reason for naming Fu Yunlu is because I thought of one thing.
Rather than flying freely in the sky forever, perhaps whether there is a habitat to settle at the end is what birds care about most after flying.
