Everything has been foreshadowed for a long time. After calming down, it only took a second for Yukihiko to understand.

He remembered what Liang Jingmo said when he left the room with him. "If the situation changes, you will be responsible for protecting me" - the "you" in the other party's mouth at that time did not refer to only him Xueyan, no, maybe even him. Liang Jingmo's real dialogue is only Princess Jiang Le. That sentence was a rescue appointment he made with Jiang Le in advance.

Carlos's death and Qin Qu's disappearance, coupled with the explosion of the monitoring room, these events officially triggered the condition of "the situation has changed" in the agreement, so after that communication, Jiang Le suspended the investigation of the cold storage and rushed to Liang Jingmo's side as soon as possible. At that time, Xue Yan had his back to the door, but Liang Jingmo, who was in the room, could see the situation in the corridor, and he confirmed that the reinforcements had arrived, so he had the courage to start what he called "testing".

At this time, Jiang Lezheng walked over from the other end of the corridor with a solemn face, and the maid who had been with her before only stood and waited in the distance, and changed to let the old host accompany her. At the same moment, another old host, who was also in a high position, was standing by the door of the room one meter away from Xue Yan. After confirming that the alarm was lifted, he slowly straightened up and put away his sword drawing stance.

Yukihiko involuntarily knelt on one knee, bowed his head, and saluted the presiding officer and the loyal royal representative. Only then did his cold sweat rush to seep from the corners of his forehead and slide down his cheeks.

It's scary to think about it. In a daze, he had already walked before the ghost gate. If he had a little strange movement just now, I am afraid that at this time, he would already be in a different place.

"Get up. He said he passed the test, what else would I do to you? ”

Jiang Le's voice came from overhead, with a little impatience.

She was obviously not in a good mood at this time. After all, the previous case has not been solved, and now there is a new corpse and a missing person, and even the surveillance video with the best hope of solving all the mysteries has been destroyed. Originally, she just regarded Liang Jingmo's investigation as a possibility to learn the truth in advance, but now it seems that she has to put her hopes on it.

And all of this is obviously due to her previous misscheduling.

Very early on, she placed the four hosts at the bottom of the queue in what she thought was the most important place on the ship, which was the monitoring room. After the system was locked, these four people also took over the work of unlocking the monitoring system. The four of them act together, nominally to let them cooperate and take care of each other, but there is also a bit of a meaning for them to spy on each other.

In her opinion, if the mole is really in the host team, these four people are the most suspicious, and the thing that the mole wants to destroy the most is the monitoring system. She put them here like a piece of cheese in front of a mouse, and he didn't feel impressed. As long as there are three people in the monitoring room at all times during the rotation, the mole can't destroy it at will, and this number doesn't make people feel completely desperate, and if he can't resist it, the other two may be able to spot it on the spot.

If the traitor was not among them, but a more senior host, then Jiang Le would also be prepared. Although the four hosts in the monitoring room are ranked low, they have a numerical advantage, and when the other party invades the monitoring room, they join forces, which is almost enough to resist for a while.

That's what she expected.

However, in the end, the monitoring room was directly blasted from the outside, and the equipment was seriously damaged, and this work was forced to come to a complete standstill. It turns out that these four inexperienced hosts can't replace a veteran even if they add up, and they can't be on their own after all.

What about the more powerful hosts? Jiang Le didn't dare to use it.

The two veteran hosts were arranged by her to patrol the deck, saying that they were guarding against outside intrusions, but in fact, they were just keeping the two strongest fighters away from them, and monitoring each other, forming a constraint. These two veteran hosts are the highest level of combat power, if one of them is a traitor, there is only one other person on this ship who can contain it, so she must arrange it this way, even if it will consume this precious manpower for no reason, she can only be cautious first.

Similar arrangements also appeared in the bodies of "Wild Lan" Xu Ying, "Evasion" Yue Ming, and "Vortex" Chang Zai. Instead of letting the three of them gather in the same place, she stationed them separately in three important locations on the ship, namely the power room, the control room of the navigation computer, and the warehouse for distilling fresh water and storing food. This is tantamount to immobilizing the three of them in the name of "town guard", and if the mole is really one of them, he will not be able to move freely in this situation. In turn, once they make strange moves, she can also identify the target and pull out the hidden danger. If the mole really reaches this level, even if it is worth sacrificing a power room or control room for this.

The only relative trust among them was "Ice Floe" Yukihiko, who was assigned to travel with Liang Jingmo and investigate the murder on the ship. But at the end of the day, it's just an arrangement for them to keep an eye on each other. The two of them didn't know each other well before, and Jiang Le let them investigate without worrying about their collusion.

In all fairness, Jiang Le's series of arrangements is definitely a display of the emperor's skill. For her, although these hosts verbally owe allegiance to the royal family, they are still not familiar enough after all, and they are not even as credible as Liang Jingmo, who has fought before. So she can only be skeptical in her use, and she prioritizes safety before letting the hosts play a role.

It's just that the final result is a slap in the face. Qin Qu and Carlos disappeared and died, not only did her arrangement fail to prevent these two new incidents from happening, but she was also caught by the hidden traitor and forcibly blew up the monitoring room!

But she couldn't even figure out what was wrong with her arrangement. In this confrontation with the mole, she fell behind step by step, and in the end she was simply defeated.

"I underestimated the magnitude of the problem and caused the consequences now." Princess Jiang Le said, "I was careless when dealing with Sendros, and I subconsciously thought that another traitor should be at a similar level as him." I underestimated the enemy. ”

She turned to Liang Jingmo: "Although I am not convinced, I have to admit that I am not enough to compare with you at this stage, and I can't win that person with my brain alone...... So I have to rely on everyone, not just try to dominate the big picture. ”

She recalled the two veteran hosts precisely because she understood that there was a huge strength gap between herself and them. With the experience and talents of the two of them, if they really have bad intentions, it doesn't make much sense for them to be on guard, so it's better to give up their vigilance and trust them wholeheartedly, and use their power to solve the case this time.

Of course, the same is true for Liang Jingmo.

"If there's anything you've learned so far, be sure to let me know." She bowed her head sincerely, which was a rare respectful attitude for her status as a princess at this time.

Liang Jingmo suddenly noticed that when she said this, the old host standing beside her suddenly smiled slightly, and his expression was like a kind grandfather when he saw his granddaughter finally grow up. On the other side, the corners of the mouth of "Mr. Sen", who has always been unsmiling, also leaked a smile of relief, and this smile disappeared in a flash, and I really couldn't see it if I wasn't careful.

I see.

At this moment, Liang Jingmo finally understood the truth of the previous sense of disobedience. It was when Jiang Le hinted that he would choose a helper, and although Liang Jingmo followed his rational judgment and chose Xueyan, he felt that something was wrong at the same time.

In retrospect, the feeling that something was wrong came from the attitude of those two old hosts. In terms of ability and experience, the two of them are undoubtedly far above the others, and their status is transcendent. However, at that time, the two of them invariably remained silent, just obediently waiting for Liang Jingmo's selection like other hosts.

This is obviously not because of how much they value Liang Jingmo. On the contrary, what they value is actually Jiang Le. Liang Jingmo guessed that the two had vaguely guessed the follow-up development at the beginning, knowing that the mole this time was not as easy to deal with as Jiang Le imagined. Neither of them, however, spoke, and just let her arrange it all her way.

Because of this incident, it just happened to be a training topic for them to leave Jiang Le.

In fact, at her age, Jiang Le is already a leader among her peers. In those years, she struggled at the bottom to have an understanding of people's hearts far beyond her peers, and the alertness and prudence she exercised from this are also indispensable conditions for great things. She was already enough to keep up with Liang Jingmo's rhythm, and the hints in his words before were the best proof of this.

But by a higher standard, she's not good enough.

The members of the Xifeng royal family have different development paths, but all of them are cultivated in the direction of the elite. But among them, only the one who is chosen as the orthodox heir will receive special treatment, and the others are just assistants to the auxiliary government in the future. Before the civil strife, it was Jiang Liang, the No. 1 host of this generation, who sat in the position of heir, and Jiang Le's positioning was nothing more than a stabilizer used to control the bottom of society.

But now the situation has changed. In the case of a member of the royal family who either died or lost contact, the worst possibility is that Jiang Le has to shoulder the burden of the orthodox heir. By that standard, she would undoubtedly need more experience.

First and foremost is "cooperation". The previous environment of falling against each other had made her develop the habit of being constantly on guard and calculating others, and in order to become a leader, she had to learn how to really use the people under her. In the process of solving the "mole" incident this time, she has undoubtedly grown a lot in this regard. These two hosts are relieved, also because they see that their laissez-faire approach has paid off.

As for Carlos and Qin Qu, who were involved in this process and died and disappeared, as well as Chris who still couldn't be blinded at this time...... The lives of these people are nothing compared to the growth of the princess, at most, they are regarded as meritorious men who provide nourishment with their lives, and they mourn in the air.

Their loyalty and values are like this, but Liang Jingmo has no special desire to refute them. He coughed and drew the audience's attention to himself.

"Since the princess has said so, then we might as well be open and honest here, and tell everything we know." He smiled confidently, "To me, although the murderer has been basically locked, how the secret room was formed is still a mystery. Maybe if you put these clues together, the truth will come out. ”

"When the time comes, it's time for us to close the net."
