"What are you afraid of? I am the captain of the planetary guard." A dangerous glint flashed in Su Qiluo's eyes. "Killing and burying the body is a simple matter."
Killing and burying a body is not easy in any era. If she kills someone and doesn't do it carefully, the government will send people to investigate thoroughly.
Those who wield supreme power can kill at will, but once they encounter a tough nut to crack, the mere impeachment by the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review is enough to send them into a deep mess.
After watching those TV dramas, she felt that people nowadays really don't understand life in ancient times at all. Those who were beaten, scolded, or killed at will were people who had signed indenture agreements.
When other ordinary civilians are killed, the county government cannot simply sit idly by and do nothing.
"You make it sound so simple." Mu Qingyun rubbed her forehead, pondered for a while, and then suddenly looked up as if she had thought of something.
Her energy was so intense that Su Qiluo was startled. She frowned, and her tone became impatient. "What?"
"It's nothing, I just thought of something." She shook her head, then looked up at the window, pondering what to do next.
A short while later, the two arrived at the military academy.
They went back to Su Qiluo's villa first. Almost as soon as they arrived, someone knocked hard on the door.
"who?"
"I am a doctor."
The doctor's voice came from outside the door. Upon hearing the voice, Mu Qingyun almost instinctively turned her head to look at Su Qiluo beside her.
'what to do?'
She gave Su Qiluo a wink.
'never mind.'
Su Qiluo frowned, trying her best to search her memory for past events, so as not to give herself away when facing the doctor later.
I called out, and the door unlocked automatically.
The doctor pushed open the door, but upon seeing them, he showed no joy; instead, his face was heavy.
"Mu Qingyun, do you know someone named Su Zhou?" The doctor looked up at her and said seriously, word by word.
Su Zhou?
"I don't know him." The name was indeed unfamiliar; she had never heard of it before. "What's wrong?"
"You really don't recognize her?" The doctor's heart skipped a beat when he saw the doubt on her face. Could he have really been fooled?
"I don't know him." She shook her head and firmly denied it.
Upon receiving her confirmation, the doctor clenched his fist in anger and blurted out, "Fuck him! He really had been lying to me all along!"
This swear word stunned not only Mu Qingyun, but also Su Qiluo.
But the doctor was still not satisfied and started cursing incessantly: "What a damn fox strategist! I was so stupid to fall for his trick. What time travel? I'm a fool!"
“Wait a minute,” Mu Qingyun keenly picked up on the key phrase, “the fox strategist?”
“Yes, that guy did indeed claim to be some kind of fox strategist.” The doctor got angrier and angrier as he spoke. “I’m getting old, and I actually believed his nonsense.”
Upon hearing the doctor's words, Mu Qingyun frowned. The strategist came to see the doctor? Why would he come to see the doctor? Shouldn't he be looking for her?
Even if she couldn't find herself before going to the doctor, she wouldn't tell the doctor about what happened before she transmigrated.
"Um," Mu Qingyun looked at the doctor's angry expression, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I know the fox strategist."
"……What?"
The doctor was stunned, momentarily speechless. "What did you say?"
"Um, well, I know the Fox Strategist, but I don't know his real name, only his nickname." Mu Qingyun said rather awkwardly, "Did he tell you everything?"
"Yes, including your matter." The doctor was now very calm; his initial shock had subsided long before he heard about these things.
He felt that his mental fortitude had improved by at least several notches. Now, unless it was an extremely explosive news story, such as Su Qiluo being a transgender person or Mu Qingyun being a deity, he wouldn't be too surprised.
"Where is he now?" Mu Qingyun frowned. She had many questions she wanted to ask the strategist. What she wanted to know most was why she had come here.
"He's gone, and I don't know where he is." The doctor shook his head, but his gaze drifted towards Su Qiluo.
Su Qiluo noticed his gaze, and immediately looked up at him, trying her best to appear calm and composed.
But his posture looked too deliberate, and the more he tried to act, the more unnatural it became.
The doctor was preoccupied and didn't pay attention to his obvious deliberate actions. "However, he told me some things that I think are necessary to tell you two."
"No need to say anything, I know everything." Mu Qingyun waved her hand, interrupting the doctor. There was really nothing to say about her affair with the strategist.
"No, this lecture isn't mainly for you, it's for Su Qiluo."
The doctor turned to look at Su Qiluo, his eyes filled with seriousness. Those things were related to Su Qiluo's background, and he didn't know if Su Qiluo could accept it if he told her.
Startled by the sudden mention, Su Qiluo's eyes flashed with coldness. "What are you telling me?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun's heart skipped a beat. She glanced at the doctor out of the corner of her eye, but the doctor didn't seem to notice anything.
The doctor sighed, looked at them, and finally spoke up to recount what Su Zhou had said earlier.
These things can be told quickly.
It was clearly something that happened two lifetimes apart, but in the end, it was just a few words spoken by people.
Hearing these things, Mu Qingyun wasn't too surprised. She already had some ideas in mind and had roughly guessed some of them.
However, Su Qiluo, who should have been the most shocked by this matter, remained expressionless, seemingly uninterested in such things.
"Beep beep beep—"
Suddenly, the doctor's phone rang.
The doctor glanced at Su Qiluo, and finally took out his phone from his pocket. Sure enough, the name on the phone was Su Zhou.
"Hey, didn't you tell me to come find you? Where are you?"
Su Zhou's voice came through the receiver. The doctor looked up at Su Qiluo again, hesitated for a while, and then said softly, "There is a villa area ahead. The first villa in the villa area is the third one from the right."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
"I informed him before I came. I think it would be best if you two met." The doctor lowered his eyes, avoiding eye contact with Su Qiluo. He felt a little guilty.
Upon hearing this, Su Qiluo remained silent.
Seeing his reaction, neither the doctor nor Mu Qingyun said anything. Mu Qingyun sat down on the sofa and poured herself a glass of water.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like when Su Zhou and Su Qiluo met.
Su Qiluo used to despise his biological parents and said that even if they knelt in front of him and begged him, he would never acknowledge them.
