Meng Guanghui continued, "Therefore, I didn't continue to ask about their affairs in the Exotic Beast Forest."
"Also, we now know what happened after they returned to the city from the Exotic Beast Forest."
"At that time, Fan Chengcai took a fancy to their team's Flying Vehicle, and Xia Chujian was almost beaten to death by Fan Chengcai because of this, which attracted Director Zong's attention."
"I think it was precisely because of Fan Chengcai's matter that Director Zong intervened, which is also one of the reasons why the other party dared not attack this team again."
"Director Zong is the Director of the Information Department of our Special Security Bureau, the Second Young Master of Zong Military Industries, and the eldest son of the Empire's Grand Princess."
"If someone of this status is familiar with the people in that team, it is very likely to make the other party hesitate."
"Or the other party is still plotting to kill this team, but because of the intervention of our Special Security Bureau, the other party needs a more precise plan and has not had time to strike again."
After Meng Guanghui finished his long analysis, he actually saw Huo Yushen nod slightly.
This meant that he agreed with his analysis.
Meng Guanghui's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Marshal Huo, what should we do next?"
Huo Yushen said indifferently, "Since you think the other party will strike again, what do you think should be done?"
Meng Guanghui frowned, pondered for a while in his heart, and said, "...In my opinion, the Special Security Bureau should continue to protect this team. As long as the other party makes a move, we can take action immediately."
Huo Yushen's face was indifferent: "I don't have so many people to protect a few low-level Gene Evolvers and ordinary people."
Meng Guanghui: "..."
"But they are the only clues now!" Meng Guanghui said unwillingly.
Huo Yushen lowered his eyes and said calmly, "They can be asked to do tasks for the Special Security Bureau, which will not only make them contribute but also make it more difficult for the other party to kill them."
Meng Guanghui suddenly understood: "Marshal Huo is wise! I will go and find a way right away!"
Meng Guanghui hung up the video communication and went to find a project excitedly.
Huo Yushen sat alone in his room, and when he remembered what Meng Guanghui had just said, "Because she has no Mental Strength, the other party did not use Mental Strength attacks on her," the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Because she has no Mental Strength, the other party did not use Mental Strength attacks on her? This Meng Guanghui, he really should let him listen to what he is saying, is that human language?
Huo Yushen naturally didn't believe this statement.
He now roughly understands why other people's Mental Strength has no effect on Xia Chujian.
But he doesn't want a second person to know for the time being.
Because this woman is indeed not a Gene Evolver.
Although it seems that she is immune to Mental Strength attacks, once a Gene Evolver launches a physical attack on her, she will not be able to withstand a single move in their hands.
The fact that Fan Chengcai found a few Humanoids to beat her half to death is solid proof.
Moreover, she is now the last important clue for him to find his sister.
...
On the second day of the New Year, the Quan Family's territory on Cangge Star was very lively.
The main residence of the Quan Family on Cangge Star is located in the eastern suburbs of Changliu County, the capital city, and is known as Jianmu Manor.
The weather was fine on this day. Although it was winter, the towering Mount Taishi on the North Side of the territory blocked the extremely cold air from the south, and the Changli Sea on the east brought warm sea breezes. Therefore, the temperature around the Quan Family's main residence was not as ridiculously low as tens of degrees below zero.
But it was also a dozen degrees below zero.
Fortunately, the open spaces in the front and back yards of the Quan Family's main residence are surrounded by transparent glass walls, and there are also glass canopies on the top that can be opened and closed automatically.
The entire front and back yards have geothermal devices buried underground.
Therefore, even in the cold winter months, as long as the canopy is closed and the geothermal is turned on, the yard is still warm as spring.
The lawn on the ground is always lush and green, and the various flowers, trees, and fruit trees around the lawn, as well as the vines climbing on the wooden pavilions, can thrive regardless of the season.
At this time, the glass canopy on the lawn in the front yard of the main residence was tightly closed.
Those cold winds could not blow in, and with the geothermal, the temperature here could be maintained at a constant temperature of twenty degrees above zero.
The Quan Family members who came to pay New Year's greetings did not have to wear those heavy coats.
Each one was dressed in light, luxurious spring attire, as if attending a fashion gala.
In the open space far across the lawn was the landing pad, where various types of Flying Vehicles were parked.
There was also a parking lot, filled with all kinds of famous and luxury cars.
Along the wall of the courtyard was a streamlined wooden corridor, connecting the main house to the front gate like a painted scroll.
Along the corridor were long, antique wisteria tables, laden with famous foods from the Beichen Galaxy's five major planets.
The most famous band in the entire Beichen Empire was performing passionately in the Qingyin Pavilion at the other end of the lawn, the soothing music flowing like water, refreshing everyone's spirits.
Mei Jiangli, the most famous female star in the Beichen Empire, swayed gracefully to the music on the stage of Qingyin Pavilion, singing softly.
Not far away, Quan Yugui, wearing a tailcoat with a small bow tie, leaned lazily against a pillar of the corridor, a look of decadence and world-weariness on his face. He held a layered cocktail in his hand, exuding an aura that warned people to stay away.
Everyone avoided him, not daring to approach within ten meters.
Li Fengci, the wife of the Quan Family's Second Branch, walked over and stood behind him, saying with a smile, "Yugui, I went back to your grandmother's house yesterday and saw Princess Jing. She asked why you didn't come back with me..."
Quan Yugui didn't turn his head, his face gloomy as he said, "Tell her I'm not interested in the Li Family."
"You child, the Li Family is your mother's family, how can you not be interested?" Li Fengci glared at him, walked over, and stood beside him.
Following Quan Yugui's gaze, Li Fengci saw the female star singing on the Qingyin Pavilion stage diagonally in front of them. She clicked her tongue twice and said, "Such a good Noble Lady, insisting on becoming an actress... Nicely put, she's a star; not so nicely put, she's just a plaything..."
Quan Yugui's eyes twitched before he said in a low voice, "Mom, that's Eldest Cousin's fiancée! And she's also a Noble Lady, a top university graduate, she just likes art and decided to make movies!"
Li Fengci curled her lips dismissively, "Your Eldest Cousin has such good conditions, yet he only found a Noble Lady from an Earl's family... Of course, maybe it's because his own mother was only from a Marquis family. If he found someone with a higher title than his mother, then the relationship between the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law in the future..."
Li Fengci seemed to imagine that scene and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
The veins on Quan Yugui's forehead throbbed.
He suddenly turned around, looked at Li Fengci, and said in a low, angry voice, "Enough! Mom! You can't stand the First Branch, and you want to control the Third Branch, but no matter how hard you try, this title will never fall on our Second Branch!"
Li Fengci's face darkened, and she also lowered her voice, "Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?! When did I ever control the Third Branch!"
"Heh, do you think I don't know about your little affair with Secretary Zhao?" Quan Yugui took a sip of his cocktail and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "I've already killed Secretary Zhao... Do you know what kind of security company she found? It almost let Caiwei..."
Li Fengci snorted coldly, "I haven't settled the score with you yet! No matter what my secretary does wrong, I should be the one to punish her! What do you mean by overstepping your bounds?"
"...I'm your son, can't I deal with your secretary?"
Li Fengci: "...I have more than one son!"
Quan Yugui immediately said, "Fine, let the Third Son come and manage this mess in the Quan Family! I want to go back to being a doctor!"
He was trained in medicine and especially liked treating people, but as soon as he got his degree, his mother, Li Fengci, dragged him back to the Quan Family and forced him to join the Quan Family Security Department.
"Don't even think about it!" Li Fengci flatly refused, "You must build a foundation in the Quan Family! You have a noble status, who is worthy of being treated by you?!"
After speaking, she swung her long fishtail skirt and left angrily.
Quan Yugui: "..."
He took a deep breath and took another big sip of his cocktail, raising his eyes to see his Eldest Cousin, Quan Yuxun, dressed in a white suit, coming out of the main house with a graceful demeanor.
The green grass on the lawn was lush, and Quan Yuxun's white clothes were extremely eye-catching.
As he walked along, members of the Quan Family greeted him one after another.
"Yuxun, long time no see, come sit at my house on Beichen Star when you have time. You work in the Senate, not far from my house."
"Okay, Fourth Aunt, I'll visit you when I have time."
"Yuxun, your cousin went to the army and was assigned to serve on the Fifth Interstellar Battleship. He can't even come back for the New Year's Eve. Can you help me bring him something?"
"No problem, Third Aunt, you can give the things to my secretary, and they will ensure they are delivered to Thirteenth Cousin."
"Yuxun, will Quan's Mining sign Miss Mei as its spokesperson this year?"
"Seventeenth Uncle, Jiangli and I got engaged last year, so she's half a Quan Family member. According to our regulations, Quan Family members cannot be spokespersons for their own companies, so no. But thank you, Seventeenth Uncle, for taking care of her usually."
...
It took Quan Yuxun half an hour to walk to Quan Yugui's side.
Quan Yugui put away his decadent and world-weary expression and said with a smile, "Eldest Cousin, I watched you come out of the main house, but you took half an hour to walk less than five hundred meters."
Quan Yuxun smiled and said, "We're all relatives, only see each other once every few years, it's only right to be a little polite."
Quan Yugui scoffed and didn't reply.
Quan Yuxun was used to his attitude, so he pretended not to notice and asked, "Did you see Caiwei? Did she come out?"
Quan Yugui shook his head and said, "Didn't see her. But she said she was sick when she came back from Guiyuan Star and hasn't come out since. She didn't even come down for the family banquet on New Year's Eve, you know that..."
"But today is different, and if the latest Medical Cabin produced by the Li Family can't cure her illness, then staying at home won't help." Quan Yuxun looked at his Quantum Optical Brain watch carrier and said, "I'll go find her."
Mei Jiangli, who had finished singing in Qingyin Pavilion, also saw Quan Yuxun.
Watching him walk over surrounded by people like a star, she was already extremely excited.
She thought he was coming to find her, so she gestured to her agent, telling her that she wouldn't sing after this song.
After finishing the song, she went backstage to redo her makeup, waiting for Quan Yuxun to pick her up.
But after waiting for half an hour, Quan Yuxun still hadn't come.
Mei Jiangli couldn't wait any longer, so she came down from Qingyin Pavilion, intending to find Quan Yuxun.
But instead of seeing Quan Yuxun, she saw Yun Nvluo, Quan Yuxun's first secretary.
This is the second update, there will be a new update at five minutes past midnight tonight.
