Chapter 48: Art and Reality

Rex calmed down under Ophelia's reassurance and reminders, and although he still stammered a little, he managed to tell the story in its entirety - although there was nothing to talk about, just a face-to-face.

Having ended her communication with Rex, Ophelia was visibly still lost in thought, not coming back to her senses quickly.

Speaking of the first encounter with Mu Xuan, it was really not a memorable past.

At that time, due to some accidents, she and Rex were kidnapped by an interstellar pirate group in Chaos 5 and imprisoned in their home base, an ordinary planet. The pirate leader intended to take them in exchange for bounties, so it was not bad for them, and there was no abuse or anything.

However, soon after, civil unrest broke out within the pirate group, and the separatist forces planned to kill them in order to turn the pirate leader into a rebellion against the Hale family, and their situation suddenly became dangerous.

At the moment of life and death, Mu Xuan appeared - this was supposed to be a plot of a divine soldier descending from the sky and a hero saving beauty, Ophelia almost fell into a heart at first, but she soon found that things were not as simple as she thought before.

It turned out that the kidnapping of her and Rex was planned by Mu Xuan, and through this incident, Mu Xuan connected left and right in the pirate group, sowing discord, and finally succeeded in splitting the pirate group, so that this large interstellar pirate group in the chaotic five districts killed each other, and was finally harvested by him in a wave - the former strong and prosperous, dissipated in a blink of an eye.

Mu Xuan's method of slaughtering the pirate group was bloody, and after the two were taken back by the Hall family, they could dream of those images full of blood and wailing every night for a long time.

As for why Mu Xuan suddenly became her and Rex's savior in the end, and was regarded as a guest of honor by the family, Ophelia is not very clear, she only vaguely heard her father talk about it, and the forces behind Mu Xuan are not simple.

Feiyuan's thoughts were gradually pulled back, Mu Xuan's behavior was too strange, maybe this time he left because he was ordered by the forces behind him.

- Even if not, she doesn't have the ability to investigate Mu Xuan.

Thinking of this, Ophelia also felt that it was really pointless to think so much, shook her head, and fell asleep.

She didn't know that Mu Xuan's departure was actually related to Qin Sui, who was still lying weak and weak in the medical center at this time.

Tonight was destined to be an unquiet night, and it was impossible for Ophelia to get a good night's sleep, because she had only been asleep for more than an hour, and the alarm in the room suddenly sounded wildly, like a big hand, and instantly lifted her out of her sweet sleep.

Ophelia was horrified, it was the first time that an alarm suddenly sounded in the family castle, and she couldn't imagine what had happened.

She hurriedly turned on the highest security protection and dressed neatly, just at this time, the voice of the light brain also sounded, she connected the communication, and the opposite was her father's butler, Dallas Hall.

"Uncle Dallas, what's going on?" Ophelia saw that although his expression was serious, he was still calm, and his heart was much calmer, "Is Father okay now?" ”

"Miss Ophelia, the head of the family is fine now, and it was Elder Rylis who had the accident." Dallas spoke calmlyβ€”too calmly, as if he didn't even realize that he was about to tell about the death of an Elder," Elder Lylis was assassinated. ”

"Assassinated?"

Ophelia's heart trembled instantly, she was assassinated in the medicinal plant base not long ago, and now it is Elder Rilys's turn, and the Dallas steward is still so calm...... Could it be that the mastermind of her assassination that day was Elder Lylis, and that he was assassinated today at the hands of his father?

As if seeing Ophelia's thoughts, a smile flashed in Dallas's eyes, "The assassin of Elder Rylis should be the Star Hunter Enge, and the two of them have a personal grudge. ”

It turned out to be a personal grudge, so that's good.

Ophelia breathed a sigh of relief, but soon felt that things were in trouble again - at this time, the Hall Star was inhabited by powerful people from various forces of the Galactic Alliance and the Chaos Star Domain, and what happened in the castle tonight would definitely not be hidden, if those people knew about it...... This is a great blow to the face of the Hall family, and it will also make them doubt the strength of the Hall family.

If it was worse, Enge didn't stop and killed any person with a big force, and then the Hall family, as the host, would have no good fruit to eat.

"Miss don't worry, the head of the family will arrange these things." Dallas was glad that Ophelia could think of this, "The alarm in the castle just now is just to warn the clansmen to prevent some young people from taking advantage of the chaos, but there is not much danger anymore. ”

There seemed to be a deep meaning in these words, and Ophelia glanced at Dallas suspiciously, could his father be sure that Enge would not anger the rest of the family because of his feud with Elder Rileys? Isn't that illustrated......

Countless thoughts flashed through her heart for a moment, and in the end, it only turned into a sentence of "I understand".

After the communication ended, Ophelia lay back on the bed, but she didn't feel sleepy - she needed to think now, how to answer when asked about tonight after seeing Chu Shaoyin and the others tomorrow......

Β·

Qin Sui, who had just come back from outside, lay back on the hospital bed.

After "firing" Mu Xuan, she left the medical center and walked around parts of the castle and set up some interesting things.

She had known that Enge would be acting tonight, and that most of the Hale family's attention would be drawn to the death of Lylith Hale, and no one would notice the ghost of nocturnal action in the castle.

Sure enough, her actions went very well.

"It's a pity you went out and didn't get to see the scene where Enge assassinated Lylis." Yang Lie sighed with regret, "I dare to guarantee that it is definitely better than those classic revenge scenes in movies." ”

"Although it is said that art comes from life and is higher than life, the kind of plot presented by directors and screenwriters who have not experienced real blood may not be comparable to reality."

Qin Sui curled up on the hospital bed, only his head exposed, like a child waiting to listen to a bedtime story, "It's okay, although Lyllis is dead, his minions are not dead yet, and the power to help him obtain the [Noah] blueprint is still in Hall, Enge will not give up - he will also bring us a wonderful performance, I won't miss it next time." ”

"I'm afraid that then you will not be an audience, but a member of the performance." Yang Lie said meaningfully, "He shouldn't be able to act recently, maybe the next time it will be at the beginning of the banquet." ”

"If that's the case, it couldn't be better." Qin Sui wouldn't mind pulling a few more shield scapegoats.

"By the way, how are you adjusting?" Qin Sui reminded, "When we get the life recovery potion, we must use it immediately, you can't drop the chain." ”

"Don't worry, I know it."

Yang Lie has always acted in a very measured manner, and Qin Sui also put his mind at ease and fell asleep peacefully.
