Chapter 741 Good Luck Falls from the Sky
The sound was like an ice cone, instantly piercing through the dull smoke and bloody smell at the door of the storage room, and piercing Xia Xingchen's eardrum.
He suddenly froze!
An indescribable feeling of astonishment mixed with a huge shock reached his scalp, and Xia Xingchen turned around almost stiffly and extremely slowly.
At the end of the dimly lit corridor, against the colorful halo stained with smoke and dust that came through the broken stained glass, stood a young girl.
She wore a low ponytail and a black examiner's uniform with a neat cut and cool lines, which made her look slim and tall.
Her face was so delicate that it seemed almost unreal, and her pair of black eyes, as clear as glass, were looking at him calmly.
is her? !
Xia Xingchen's pupils behind the mask moved slightly. As he watched her walk towards him step by step, he held his breath silently and lowered his eyes to avoid her gaze.
Fu Sui'er's gaze only stayed on him for a moment, his eyes as indifferent as if he was looking at an insignificant decoration, and then he moved away to look at the bloodstains on the ground.
"Grandpa would be sad if he saw you like this."
Xia Xingchen knew that she had only misunderstood his identity. He was silent for a moment and then put away the gun.
Fu Sui'er raised her eyes and met Xia Xingchen's. Xia Xingchen, fearing she might reveal her secret, turned her back to her. Fu Sui'er felt that the person before her was a little strange, but she couldn't put her finger on what was strange. She said calmly, "Brother Aze, you should go back and listen to your grandfather's explanation of Brother Ajie's situation, instead of just believing your father's one-sided story. You're from a prominent family in Country A, yet you can't even show your face in Country S. Is this how your father trained you?"
Xia Xingchen lowered his head and did not answer.
In Fu Suier's eyes, this scene did seem like an attempt to escape.
Her voice was filled with anger. "Who ordered you to assassinate the Bai family's royal family? Shen Che? What exactly did he want to do? Do you know that if I hadn't sent the royal guards away, if anything happened to Bai Mi, none of you would be able to escape."
"Say something!"
Fu Suier asked several times without receiving a response. His patience ran out, and he grabbed Xia Xingchen's wrist: "I don't believe that the Shen family is willing to be someone else's lackey. Do you have any difficulties? If so..."
Before she could finish, Xia Xingchen reacted violently, shook off Fu Suier's hand as if avoiding some terrible plague, turned around and disappeared into the white smoke.
"..." Fu Suier stood there in a daze, looking at the black shadow in the smoke with a look of surprise, "Why are you running?"
But she couldn't care less about Shen Yize now. The most urgent task was to complete the task assigned by Shan Shan.
Fu Suer pushed open the door of the storage room, went in, and ran out in less than half a minute.
"grown ups!"
At this moment, a steady and deep voice sounded from behind him.
Khun Pa, accompanied by a group of royal guards, hurried over from the other side of the corridor. He quickly glanced at the bloodstains on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up and said in a deep voice, "The group of people who surrounded His Highness Bai Mi have all been imprisoned. I will now take His Highness back to heal his injuries."
"No!" Fu Sui'er refused without thinking.
"Why not? The intentions of this group of people are obvious. We must prioritize the safety of His Highness." Kunpa's eyes were unfriendly. Even with Kong Maolin's guarantee, the captain of the royal guards would not obey the orders of a foreigner.
That’s of course because if Bai Mi is taken away now, she won’t be able to pass on the message.
Fu Suier's eyes drifted away for a moment, and he held his head high and puffed out his chest. "I am now the examiner for this round. Here, besides the Queen, I have the most authority. Let me ask you, was it your idea to take Bai Mi back, or was it the Queen's idea?"
Kunpa was stunned and didn't react.
Fu Suer immediately assumed the posture of an examiner and said sternly, "Khun Pa, have you forgotten the purpose of this exam? Flowers in a greenhouse cannot withstand the real wind and rain. If you can't even endure this little pain, how will you face the swordplay under the throne in the future? How can you shoulder the burden of a country?"
Kunpa was just a guard and didn't understand any of this. He was stunned for a moment.
Fu Suer held his head high and chest puffed out, raising his intentions. "Only true suffering can sharpen a true mind. If he can't even resolve this crisis on his own, how can he be qualified to seek Her Majesty's approval and take control of the military? Let him find a way to stop the bleeding, a way to survive, and a way to get out of here! This is the 'test' he should go through!"
"You might as well wait and see what the Queen means."
Kunpa was a little shaken: "But the safety of His Highness..."
"Put up a sign prohibiting entry. This is safe enough until the Queen responds."
Fu Suer is the chief examiner of this exam, so even though she is a foreigner, Pa Kun cannot completely ignore her opinions.
After a moment's hesitation, he nodded and ordered the royal guards to cordon off the storage area.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Fu Sui'er did not dare to stay to avoid arousing suspicion, and turned back to the tower.
At that moment, inside the cramped wooden cabinet, Bai Mi was oblivious to what was happening outside. He clutched his wound tightly, struggling to discern the dead silence outside amidst the thick smell of dust and fabric, his heart in his throat.
The bullet marks on the wall were so obvious that the royal guards should have come here long ago.
But life and death are at stake, and no one knows whether it will be a killer or reinforcements who will push open the cabinet door in the next second.
Bai Mi thought for a moment, pushed open the cabinet door and climbed out.
No matter when, his life and death are in his own hands.
"Paji——"
When his toes touched the ground, he suddenly stepped on something. He lowered his eyes and took a look. His arrogant look froze for a moment.
He... stepped on a book with "The Most Precious Thing" written on the cover in green highlighter...
This word is still from Country A.
Bai Mi: “…”
