Chapter 412: Beyond Common Sense

"What happened next?" Zhao Qiqi looked at Mina and asked.

"They held a grudge against me because of my grandfather's care for me. After all, the Mi family's wealth is huge, and it is not just the part that outsiders see. But even so, after all, grandpa is physically tough, but he still holds the lifeblood of the Mi family, so they don't dare to confront grandpa openly. Under my grandfather's protection, I spent four happy years. However, not long after my seventeenth birthday, my grandfather, who had always been healthy, suddenly collapsed on the table while eating. They sent their grandfather to the hospital, but only ten hours or so later, they informed the Mi family that the grandfather had died! Mina's lips began to tremble as she said this, and even if we just looked at her hologram, we could feel that intense sadness.

"W-That's unusual, isn't it? Could it be that someone in the Mi family ...... your grandfather" Listening to Mina's words, I couldn't help but guess.

"That's right! As you say. After my grandfather's death, the group of people who had been holding back before suddenly jumped out, such as the eldest uncle and the second uncle, who sent someone to control me on the night they announced my grandfather's death. In the Mi family's ancestral house, the only one who is good to me, except for my grandfather, is the old housekeeper. He looked at me pitifully, and told me the truth of everything while the others were not paying attention. They added a colorless and tasteless chronic poison to his grandfather's daily diet, and it often took several years for the person to consume the item to take effect, and because of this, others would not easily notice. But there was nothing he could do to turn the tide. So, even though I knew the truth, I was locked in my room by them, grounded from there, and never able to set foot in my room again. The butler saw me pitifully, so with his efforts, I had a cat and a dog, and they were my only playmates. Mina took a deep breath, adjusting her emotions.

"What about your biological father Mi Zewen and stepmother Zeng Li? At least in terms of profit, they should also stop that group of people from doing such a thing, huh? Zhang Qiang was a little puzzled.

Mina smiled self-deprecatingly, and she said, "At that time, Grandpa's will hadn't appeared yet. In order to let the eldest uncle, the second uncle and several little aunts relax their vigilance, Mi Zewen has been disguising himself as a literary and artistic person who does not ask about the world and does not admire vanity. After all, among the several children of the Mi family, Mi Zewen was the weakest one, so he had to take such a measure. Then you can think about it, how can they offend his brothers and sisters because of me in such a situation? ”

"I see." I nodded.

Later, the appearance of lawyer Zou Xuelin changed all the situation. Because in the will, my grandfather set me as the sole heir to the property, so they had to compromise with Yonezewen, and because of my use value, they also had to release me and live in peace with me on the surface. Zeng Li also began to 'protect' my existence because of the appearance of the will, although she and Yonezewen had limited abilities. What happened after that, as Zeng Li recounted, in order to obtain the property of the Mi family, they installed cameras and monitors in my room, manipulated my food, and even killed one of my cats and dogs later...... In short, the most vicious things in the world, they have done. During that time, I went crazy and roared, but then I gradually calmed down. I learned to confront them with silence because I knew that for them to get their possessions, I had to be alive. They wanted me to say what it was like to transfer my inheritance to them unconditionally. But I remained silent. Later, perhaps with the blessing of my grandfather, I found new hope in my room. ”

"New hope?" Zhao Qiqi raised his eyebrows and looked at her curiously.

"What is it?" Zhang Qiang also asked.

"I found a secret passage in my room. It was hidden in the back of a bookcase, and I stumbled upon the mechanism while reading a book. From that day on, I was free to shuttle through the Mi family's ancestral home. I can even go to each of their rooms. Then, during an eavesdropping, I learned an even more incredible secret, the secret of the Mi family. Mina's eyes kept beating, and her expression was a little complicated.

"This secret has something to do with your current situation?" I'm guessing.

"Yes. The reason I became the way I am is because I learned that hidden secret. Mina nodded: "Since I gave up confronting them head-on, those people in the Mi family have relaxed their monitoring of me a lot. So, when I carefully moved the cameras they had placed in the room to free up a small area that surveillance couldn't observe, they didn't notice either. Because of this, I was able to successfully shuttle through everyone's room in the Mi family. Once, I went through a secret passage to the wall behind my uncle's room. But I overheard what they were talking about. So, I learned a secret about the Mi family. In fact, the Mi family has far more financial resources than it shows to the world. Mijia is also not only a chain of hotels and tourism. In fact, it is also involved in some unknown scientific research projects behind the scenes. And these are all things that exist in the dark world. ”

"Research projects? What is it mainly about? As I looked back and forth in the research room in front of me, I had some kind of guess in my mind.

"It's some scientific research projects that seem to ordinary people to be fantastical. For example, time travel, such as the materialization of ideas, such as freeing human beings from the shackles of the body and achieving eternal life, and so on. At that time, when I heard this, I was also shocked. From their conversations, I learned that, in fact, the science and technology that we humans currently have are more advanced than we know. These technologies are not well known. It's in the hands of a small group of people in the world, you know what I mean? In other words, there are some technologies that are still being studied on the surface, but in fact, they have already existed! ”

My pupils shrank sharply, and my heart began to beat wildly.

"You, what did you say? You mean, something that seems to us only exists in science fiction, but the technology already exists? Looking at Mina in disbelief, I only felt that my three views seemed to gradually collapse.

Mina seemed to see the confusion in the eyes of the three of us.

She reached out and snapped her fingers into the void.

"Haven't you always wondered why I exist in what you call the 'True Demon' in a special state? Look at this and you'll understand. ”
