Lewis was locked in a small room less than 20 square meters by military personnel. He sat on the edge of the bed with his legs spread out, his hands folded, his elbows resting on his knees, his figure slumped.
When Shao Zelin came in, he saw this picture. He paused, then pulled a chair next to him and sat down opposite Lewis.
In just two days, a layer of cyan stubble had grown on Lewis' chin. He slowly raised his eyelids. After seeing that Shao Zelin came, his eyes moved slightly.
"I heard that your Majesty just came down."
Lewis straightened up and gave an indifferent hmm, "Swear me, and then he left."
Their emperor had a bad temper when he was young, and now he has a bad temper in middle age. Shao Zelin looked around. This was an ordinary temporary detention room. Although the sparrows were small and well-equipped, they just looked rudimentary.
"Little An is still at my house, when can you go out."
Since Shao Zelin walked in, Lewis hadn't had any expressions. Hearing these words, he glanced over, his eyes sharpened, "...you know that Little An is home?"
The two are obviously relatives, but the attitude between them is hard to tell that they still have such a relationship. Shao Zelin's face is colder than Lewis, and he nodded, "I know, I just came from home."
Lewis's body suddenly became stiff. He pursed his lips and looked at Shao Zelin. For a moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind. Shao Zelin said again: "Relax, he doesn't know you are here or what you did in Scarlett, he I thought you were in the Death Galaxy."
After hearing Shao Zelin's words, Lewis didn't relax at all, still staring at Shao Zelin.
This sentence exposed too many problems. Shao Zelin knew that he had lied to Shao Zean, but did not expose him, but helped him to conceal it, and even came to the military to see him. Also, he just said that he came from home, which means that he was at home last night. He was at home last night? why?
Lu Yi looked at Shao Zelin's eyes full of vigilance and distrust, and there was nothing he could do. He just found out that his lover had been held hostage by the rebels for several months. Now he is still in a suspicious state. Who knows if he will be around him? There will be rebels, Shao Zean is forced, but others are not necessarily.
Shao Zelin knew what he was thinking. He was silent for a moment and changed the subject: "Why did you cause a mental riot on Scarlett."
Lewis half-closed his eyelids. As soon as he was about to give an excuse for his friend, he heard Shao Zelin's voice resounding again, "Is it because of Little An."
Lewis looked at Shao Zelin. The two looked at each other for a long time. Lewis' eyes moved stiffly. Then, a weird and bitter laugh came out of his throat. After the laugh, he said in a low and mute voice: "You know too."
For two days and one night, Lewis didn't close his eyes at all. Of course, this level was nothing to his physique, but he would also feel tired, especially when he was sent back to the main star. In a small room like this, there is nothing to do, so there is more time for him to think.
"You know too." Lewis didn't even think about concealing, so he admitted directly.
Shao Zelin was quiet for three seconds before opening his mouth, "He was not voluntary. Everything he does now is not what he intended. My brother... Although he is not a good person, he is not a bad person."
There is no filter in Shao Zelin's eyes. Everything he says is on the matter. Although he said when facing his parents that Lewis is Shao Zean's husband and would not hurt him, but that was just an excuse to comfort his parents. When facing Lewis, Shao Zelin was not so confident in his heart.
When he heard Shao Zelin's words, Lewis twisted his eyebrows. He understood what Shao Zelin meant. He was excusing Shao Zean and pleading for him. He hoped to arouse Lewis's sympathy and let him see his past affection. Shao Zean.
"He is my legal partner. I care about him and love him more than anyone else. You don't need to tell me this, because all I will do is protect him," after a pause, Lewis promised to say, "I will always Won't hurt him."
After hearing these words, Shao Zelin did not show a touched expression, but looked at Lewis strangely, "You already know that Little An is being held hostage, so you should know that he doesn't really want to marry you, but behind the scenes. His people asked him to do this. After Little An is rescued, your marriage... will be annulled."
Shao Zelin didn't need to say this, Lewis had thought of it a long time ago.
Just learned that Shao Zean liked him, how happy he was, and how sad he is now. It turned out that he had been passionate about himself for so long. No wonder that when he touched Shao Zean at the beginning, Shao Zean's body would become stiff. I am afraid that in his eyes, he is more terrifying than a scourge.
After being rescued, the first thing he should do is to divorce himself. After all, this is a robbery marriage. Every day he lives with himself, he leads a life of dire straits. When lying on the same bed, What was he thinking about?
Do you feel desperate and pray in your heart with all your strength, someone can save him from such a terrible situation?
Is he willing to pay any price as long as he can leave the rebels and leave his side?
A lot of emotions were hidden in his heart, turning the rivers and seas continuously, Lewis closed his eyes, he felt that he was about to explode, he couldn't breathe, and couldn't make a sound.
Shao Zean didn't like him, even, probably disliked him very much.
This sentence was like a hot red soldering iron, which was severely branded on his heart. The heart is the softest part of the human body, and at the same time the weakest part of the human body. The hot and painful spread to the limbs and skeletons, Lewis lowered his eyes. He never spoke.
Shao Zelin was also very silent, but there was a time limit for visits, so he had to ask some things quickly.
"You and Little An have been together longer. Can you think of someone around him who might be watching him."
Lewis looked over, frowning subconsciously, "No one."
Shao Zelin was startled, Lewis stretched out his hand and pointed to his head, "No one is watching him, watching him, it's in his mind."
Combining the current level of technology, Shao Zelin understood for a moment, and his expression became serious, "You mean the monitor?"
Lewis spoke slowly and quietly, "In Death Galaxy, when we first found him, we saw Morris, but he ran away. Then we searched Morris' laboratory and found a bunch of bombed equipment. There is a machine in it, and no one can tell what it is for. After returning, it was sent to the Royal Academy, and it has not been studied yet."
Lewis paused for a second and continued: "Little An said that he used to be in the same room with Morris when he was lying on a metal bed with nothing beside him. Looking back now, he should have been monitored by then. What he said is very likely to be a lie. He should have seen the true face of that machine and knew what he was implanted. That machine should be the thing that implanted the monitor for him."
Shao Zelin's voice lowered, "When we first came back, we did a full-body examination for Little An, and we did all the inspections, but we never found that he was implanted with a monitor..."
Listeners are more troublesome than humans. If they are humans, you can catch them and kill them, but if they are listeners, the other party can implant such tiny monitors. Who knows if there will be other timings. The bomb stayed in Shao Zean's body, maybe even Shao Zean didn't know what was in his body.
Shao Zelin clenched his hands into fists tightly. Because of too much force and insufficient blood supply to his hands, his fingers quickly became cold. He clenched his fists. He forced himself to relax, then looked at Lewis, "What are you going to do next? do."
Lewis answered plainly, "Take him to check."
"No!" Shao Zelin didn't even think about it. "Surface inspection can't find out. Deep inspection is too dangerous. What if there is a sensing device on the monitor? And how do you take him to check? If it is a monitor, It is very likely that he is also carrying a sound and echo device. When Little An knows about it, the rebels will know about it!"
Lewis looked at Shao Zelin and his eyes were a little cold. "What you said, do you think I haven't thought about it? But only by checking can we figure out where the monitor is. Only when we figure it out can we figure out how to take it out. If that thing stays in his body for a day longer, there will be more danger. The longer it is, the higher the danger. You should be equally aware of this."
Shao Zelin didn't want to take such a big risk, but he also knew that Lewis was right, and the room fell silent for a while. After some time, Shao Zelin stood up, and the visit time was almost up.
"Now only you and me, as well as my parents, know about this. The three of us will keep our original appearance, and will not let Little An find something strange, how about you?"
Lewis closed his eyes again, and he replied in a deep voice, "Me too."
Shao Zelin looked at him and wanted to say something. After thinking for a few seconds, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
Obviously, Lewis still has feelings for his brother, and the feelings are very deep, so he knew that his brother didn't like him, and he still didn't give up on him. Shao Zelin just wanted to remind him to get out of this unilateral relationship as soon as possible, but he didn't say anything when the words came to his lips.
It doesn't matter if he is selfish or sinister, but the truth is, the more Lewis likes his brother, the higher his brother's safety factor. One is a colleague who has little friendship, and the other is a brother of a female compatriot. This choice is not difficult to make.
Walking out of the temporary detention room, Shao Zelin took a deep breath and then let out a long breath.
--Sorry.
...
The adjutant came to Shao's house and told Chi Zhao that Lewis would be back tonight. Chi Zhao listened and immediately went back to the room to pack his belongings and was ready to go back with the adjutant.
At the gate, Mr. Shao looked at him hesitantly. He didn't even hesitate to hesitate. After quickly telling his younger son to be careful, he took a deep look at him, fearing that he would be seen as true. In the mood, Mr. Shao quickly returned to the house.
Chi Zhao blinked, and then looked at the adjutant: "Let's go, did your mission go smoothly this time?"
Lewis gave the adjutant's order that no matter what he asked, the adjutant was not allowed to answer, let alone reveal the slightest information. In silence, the adjutant said vaguely: "When the admiral comes back, you can ask him yourself."
Chi Zhao glanced at him inexplicably, but still didn't make things difficult for him, "Okay."
The adjutant heaved a sigh of relief. Look, his wife is not as headstrong as it was reported from the outside, she is still very easy to talk.
He didn't know, it was because Chi Zhao knew his original destiny ending, and now Chi Zhao sympathizes with him very much. If you put in a novel, the adjutant is a stepping stone on the protagonist's road to success. Even if you die tragically, you have to be tortured enough to die tragically, it is simply tragic.
Chi Zhao is very embarrassed, the system is very difficult to describe.
[...Host, don't you think that compared to the adjutant, you are the most brutal cannon fodder? The adjutant was tortured for only one month, but you were tortured for four years. The worst thing is that the adjutant went to the tomb of the martyrs after his death. After you died, you didn't even leave any strands of hair. Even if you do, you will be spit on every day. ]
Chi Zhao: "..." It makes sense.
