The Vow of Silver Dawn

"This is the end of today’s news. See you tomorrow."

The young host of Qiankun TV showed a sweet smile, then the lights dimmed and the camera zoomed out... …In the huge projection installation, advertising screens of new wines were quickly projected.

Seeing this, Sean couldn't help sighing.

"It's been three days, but the news didn’t mention Nan Qianyu’s death at all. Is this still a station under Nanming Capital?"

The Master’s voice came from behind: "Nanming Capital is a subsidiary of Qiankun Group. Now that it has lost two heads in succession, without a leader, it no longer has the ability to be independent. In fact, after the death of Nan Heli, Nanming Capital has obviously been invaded by external forces, otherwise Nan Qianyu would be mediocre. , You won’t be pushed out as an abandoned son, and you don’t know anything until you die."

Sean listened to the Master analyzing the situation, while lying on his back on the soft sofa, looking up The snow-white ceiling and the dazzling lighting made me fascinated.

Three days have passed since the first confrontation with Qiankun Group.

In these three days, the master and disciple spent in a gorgeous manor. The dining and living are all exquisite and luxurious, whether it is the local top brand of Heaven System or the luxury of the core area of ​​the Republic. Goods, everything is here. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, one can see a dense forest of lush and green, and hear the clear springs in the forest with ding dong. The rays of light from the stars are dotted with all this, and accompanied by the ebbing of time, it presents countless beautiful views of rising and sunset.

Considering that this manor was built on an originally bare asteroid, all this is of extraordinary significance.

It is worthy of being Nan Heli's favorite place during his lifetime.

The only problem is that this manor is now the cage where Jedi master and disciple are under house arrest.

Three days ago, the confrontation at Xiajing Bar ended temporarily without any casualties.

In the face of Jedi Master's self-sacrificing "turnaround", Qiankun Group finally chose to compromise.

However, compromise has its limits. They are always impossible to watch Jedi master and disciple withdraw, so after a simple negotiation, the two sides reached a delicate agreement.

Jedi Master puts forward three conditions that cannot be rejected: first, not to frame or frame; second, not to violate personal safety; third, not to harm the innocent.

And as a price, Jedi master and disciple lost their freedom of movement. They were "invited" by Xia Yan to the manor where Nan Heli was brutally killed. They were strictly guarded by hundreds of fully armed security soldiers. Communication is strictly restricted, and you can only watch the holographic program and chat every day to relieve boredom.

For those who made a special trip to investigate the truth, this seemed like a huge setback, but neither Mostema nor Sean were discouraged, but felt a little bit of encouragement.

Because there is no more important survey result than being in the game.

Before coming, the master and disciple had only guesses about the death of Nan Heli, but now they have direct suspicions-Qiankun Group, Xia Yan. In addition, the Qiankun Group's decisiveness in the game was unexpected, and it put the master and disciple in a dangerous situation, but this unexpected game itself also revealed a lot of information. In the end, this manor was also strange, and they were in the manor, just in time to investigate.

"Speaking of, Master, I still think that Xia Yan's place of house arrest in this manor should have other intentions. Under the circumstances at that time, even if he throws us into a real prison, we will We can only accept the conditions. After all, we only have one hole card in our hand. Now, with this excellent living condition, how can we think about it."

Mostema said: "Two possibilities, one of which will keep us under house arrest for a long time. , It’s easier to deal with the aftermath. For example, 1 month later arranges for our bizarre death, which can echo Nan Heli’s death, and then push it to an unnecessary third party."

Sean divine light flashed: "A lawless group. For example, the "Nothingness" that once invaded the Republic?"

Mostema said with a smile: "Yes, this is also an explanation method. At that time, Nan Heli will be affected by Jedi. The mysterious organization was killed, and we became the culprit."

"But the committee will definitely send more people to investigate the truth."

"The longer the time, the longer the distance The truth is farther away. What's more, they dare to target Jedi once, then they dare to target the second and third times. Those who take the risk can't see failure." Mostema said, "The second may be yours."

Faced with the Master's temporary assessment, Sean answered smoothly: "What is hidden in this manor, we need to use our power to find out."

"Why is it so guessing?" "

" Because according to Nan Qianyu: Nan Heli had a foreboding before he was killed, but he did not ask anyone for help. Instead, he hid in this manor to meet his death and left it in his diary. I have said about taboo research and self-destruction."

Mostema nodded, motioned Sean to continue.

"Looking back now, the diary should be true. Otherwise, if the Qiankun Group is only for framing, it can be more obvious in the diary, such as directly proving that the murderer is the Republic. Then next The question is: what exactly does the so-called taboo research mean? Why does it kill itself?"

Sean paused, and said, "If we follow this line of thinking, I think Nan Heli’s death is more like being killed. Killing people and killing their mouths. And a person who has a premonition of all this should leave a legacy before death. Considering that Xia Yan specially invited us here, I think the probability that the legacy falls here is very high."

Mostema said: "The direction is right, but the details are not enough, which leads to your conclusions are too subjective."

Sean listened very well.

Mostema said: "In the past three days, you should have noticed that the staff of this manor are all veterans who have followed Nan Heli for many years. After Nan Heli's death, the manor still maintains the original mode of operation. It seems that someone is deliberately protecting the scene, waiting for others to dig out clues."

Sean nodded.

"This is not Nan Qianyu’s idea. In fact, he once advocated that all employees be fired. After all, after Nan Heli’s death, the official conclusion was that an insider committed the crime. People persuaded him to change his mind. The person who persuaded him should be Xia Yan’s comrades. Later, Nan Qianyu met with us on behalf of the Nanming Group, which was also the result of their own manipulation. So in summary, the murderer deliberately protected the murder scene , And brought Jedi to the scene. The intention is almost self-explanatory."

paused, Mostema added: "Of course, the most important evidence lies in the guidance of force. I have seen a vague The outline is hidden in the manor, but the exact location is not clear."

Sean hearing this couldn't help but feel dumb, and once again realized the difference between Padawan and Master.

While he was still wandering in the fog of logical reasoning, Master had directly used force to flop to see the answer.

And just as he was about to continue to discuss the details, a soft woman's voice came from the door of the living room.

"Two distinguished guests, dinner is ready, please go to the restaurant."

That is a red-clothed young woman, her meticulous attitude and tone all reveal her The well-trained, gorgeous long dress is a proof of her status in the manor: this is the only steward in the manor.

However, the woman's micro-expression clearly reveals her rejection and even resentment towards Jedi master and disciple.

Sean could not help but come up with information about her.

Li Qiong, 22 years old, has served in this manor for 10 years. She was once Nan Heli’s only beloved daughter, Nan Wuyou's personal maid, loyal to the Nan family, and "treachery" Jedi master and disciple hate them.

If it hadn’t been for Xia Yan to "please" the master and disciple to the manor, she would have quit her hands long ago in the name of Nanming Capital and Qiankun Group and asked all the staff to treat them as guests. .

In the past three days, this straightforward female steward has also used her position to find trouble with Jedi master and disciple.

At this time, when she heard her greet dinner, Sean felt a slight tingling on the tip of her tongue. The salty and bitter [Kanyuan] egg fried rice that I tasted when I arrived at the manor on the first day is really fresh in my memory. And Li Qiong's stern face said that the manor chef's skills are limited, and the look of taking pleasure in other people's misfortune when looking at Haihan is also fresh in memory.

Walking to the restaurant with Master, a full set of feasts has been set up on the huge long table. I saw a mountain of steamed buns and rice. Apart from this was nothing else, showing a minimalist luxury.

Sean looked at it and asked, "Is there any salt?"

"No." Li Qiong still clenched his face, meticulously.

For the unique food culture of the Heaven System, Sean was deeply impressed, then picked up the steamed buns and began to nibble, halfway through, he took out a small salt shaker from his arms and placed it on the Master’s rice first. Sprinkle.

Li Qiong's eyes widened: "Where did you get the salt?!"

Sean also answered truthfully: "The salt grains pulled out of the fried rice on the first day."

"...hmph!" Li Qiong was snorted angrily, as if he was greatly humiliated.

After dinner, the master and disciple enjoyed the characteristic universe bath, sometimes freezing to the bones and sometimes boiling water, the manor engineering exhibition where half of the power was cut off on TV, and even in the middle of the night, there was a sound outside the manor. The sound of turbo drill bits.

For these acrobatics, master and disciple have become accustomed to it. During the three days of living in the manor, everyday all has the same rhythm. For Jedi, these nuisances can only be regarded as simple daily cultivation, but Li Qiong's obsession is so deep that one can't help but admire.

Sean was lying on the bed, listening to the deafening sound of construction drills outside the window, she felt the hard work of the night shift, and then began her daily routine meditation.

As long as you feel the flow of force seriously, external interference will naturally disappear.

This daily cultivation lasted until the seventh day before it came to an end. It was not that Li Qiong’s obsession had dissipated, but that the staff of the manor worked day and night under the order of the female steward. Electric drills were really unsustainable for brainwashing, and by the seventh day they fell ill. In addition, the security personnel sent by Xia Yan were unbearable and complained again and again. As for Li Qiong himself, she also had dark circles under her eyes, and she looked sluggish.

And that night, when she was about to personally operate the electric drill and work overnight, she was even more exhausted on the construction site, completely interrupting the fine tradition of night work in the manor.

For this shameful failure, Li Qiong himself was not discouraged at all. On the bed, he was still continuously remotely directing his subordinates to set up various cultivation subjects for Jedi master and disciple, but when she was in bed for two days, watch What happened was a scene where the eye socket was completely split.
