Chapter 37 Trial



"Use suicide attacks at various evacuation points as leverage to threaten Ake into sending troops to rescue those in the Southern Hemisphere. Then, to stabilize the overall situation, President Flix proposes that both sides compromise. He'll rescue the residents of the Liman Islands, while you'll be responsible for making a national announcement, telling your men not to take action yet."

After Bai Ye finished reading the report in his hand, he crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can next to him. Then he pulled a chair and sat down, looking at An Sheng across the table.

"So... this is why you are here?" Bai Yi felt a headache when he looked at An Sheng who was sitting opposite him.

After An Sheng issued the nationwide notice, he and Liu Shasha were urgently taken away from Luofan Star by the next batch of shuttles. As a private enterprise transformed from a moving company, Huang Lala obviously had no experience in handling such incidents, so they chose the most direct approach, which was to hand it over to Bai Yi.

Although in principle, Bai Yi should be in charge of such matters related to primitive civilization, he really doesn't want to deal with such troublesome matters.

Faced with such a troublemaker pair, Bai Yi didn't know how to deal with them. Huang Lala had already submitted a report to him, with irrefutable evidence of their crimes. It was clearly impossible to send them back at this point, but it was also difficult to arrange for them to stay on the immigration ship. After all, the area was crowded and there were no special quarantine facilities. What if that guy named Ansheng gathered a group of people to start a riot again? That would cause a lot of trouble.

So Bai Yi had no choice but to send an industrial ship to pick up the two and temporarily detain them in a space station in the orbit of Mars.

"According to the Regulations on the Transfer and Protection of Indigenous Civilizations of the Galactic Alliance, your actions have posed a widespread and serious threat to the safety of individuals in your civilization and have had a significant negative impact on the migration process."

"You are now sentenced to death by beheading. Do you have anything to say?"

Bai Yi looked at An Sheng with dead eyes.

"No." The latter didn't hesitate for even a second.

"Really? Why don't you think about it again?" Bai Yi was puzzled. Why was this guy so stubborn? He really didn't leave himself any way out.

"Let me ask you a question. Didn't you consider Liu Shasha's feelings when you did these things?"

"I just fulfilled his wish." An Sheng looked straight at Bai Yi, with no shame in his tone.

"By trampling on other people's lives?" Bai Yi looked at him jokingly. This young man was quite interesting. He was like the second male lead in those melodramas, who was twisted because he couldn't get what he wanted.

"Do you think Liu Shasha would like to see this result? What do you think she would feel when she knew that her wish was misinterpreted like this?"

"It doesn't matter. It's all the same." An Sheng said calmly, "What Sister Shasha thinks is her business. I'm just responsible for doing things my way."

"Even if it means being hated by Liu Shasha, even if it means killing innocent people?"

"I don't care." An Sheng shrugged, "At least I really saved more people."

"Have you ever thought that you would involve Liu Shasha?" Bai Yi still had a dead look in his eyes.

"These things were all planned by me and have nothing to do with her."

"That's very interesting." Bai Yi sneered, "You spent so much effort to kidnap her from the United Nations, and you two brought so many people from Linman Island. Until the explosion, she was still using her identity to cover for you."

"After so many things happened, who would believe you now that she's not an accomplice?"

"She wasn't involved in anything." At this point, An Sheng's emotions, which had been as stagnant as water from the beginning, finally showed some ups and downs.

"I prepared all this secretly. I just wanted her..."

"What do you want her to do?" Bai Yi followed up his question.

"I just want her to witness me, to see me grow up, to realize that I'm no longer that child who needs protection. I've grown up to the point where I can influence the course of history for the entire Luofan civilization and save more people..."

An Sheng became visibly agitated.

"You just want her approval, right?"

Bai Yi suddenly uttered a sentence. This sentence suddenly cooled An Sheng's originally turbulent emotions, and he was stunned on the spot.

It seems that he is a child who has lacked love since childhood.

The tragic experiences he had in his childhood had left deep scars in the boy's young heart. The love he lacked from his parents was to some extent made up for by the sudden appearance of Liu Shasha.

However, this kind of compensation can only bring temporary peace. As age and living environment change, the patches on the wounds will eventually be peeled off, and the bloody wounds will be exposed again. In order to comfort their own spirit, people will instinctively avoid this fact in the process. It is this escapist mentality that distorts Ansheng's spirit.

He regarded Liu Shasha as the only candle in his life, and in order to keep this candle burning for a long time, he would do anything. However, this blind emotion ultimately made him make the wrong choice and dragged this candle into the water.

"Where is she now?" An Sheng seemed a little annoyed. During the entire boarding and transfer process, the two of them were transferred separately, one in front and one behind, so they didn't know that the other was in the room next to them.

"Why, you want to see her?"

"Please let me see her one last time." An Sheng said in a tone that was almost pleading, "Just consider it my last wish before I die."

She had been shot for crimes against civilization.

Bai Yi had been meaning to say this, but he swallowed it back. Although he had intended to tease the boy, saying such a thing in this situation would have seemed a bit too low in EQ.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yi nodded and said, "Okay."

"But you two can't talk."

An Sheng's eyes lit up when she heard Bai Yi agree, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, that brightness turned into a look of regret.

Are you kidding? Bai Yi had finally managed to get Liu Shasha to accept that An Sheng was dead. It would be ridiculous to let them meet at this time.

"Come with me." Bai Yi snapped his fingers, and the restraints that had been restraining An Sheng were automatically released. Then, Bai Yi stood at the door of the room, turned sideways, and waited quietly for him.

After leaving the room and walking along the corridor, you will come to a glass corridor, which is the connection area between the various modules of the space station. There are several such glass corridors here, and they are arranged in a row.

"Look, over there." Bai Yi could only point to a figure in the opposite corridor.

Liu Shasha, dressed in casual clothes, was standing on the glass corridor and looking at this side.
