Chapter 287 Oh dear, I've been exposed!
Chapter 287

Pei Han also found this strange.

“Aside from this incident, Tusaya had no reason to attack Steinert.”

He turned the screen around, revealing all the information he had gathered.

"The place where Tusaya is located is several star systems away from Steinert. Steinert is not the weakest among them, and the toll fees given to him are usually paid on time."

It's shameful for Star Alliance member states to pay tolls to space pirates.

Pei Han would not express his "righteous" views on this matter.

If there were truly perfect justice, the inhabitants of these twenty-odd planets wouldn't have died so tragically.

Tusaya should not have existed for so long, and it should have become increasingly difficult to manage.

Is this a serious dereliction of duty?
no way.

It's impossible for the entire legion from the capital planet to be brought here.

He certainly has the authority to mobilize legions from surrounding star systems.

But the kings of these galaxies refused.

The reason is simple: they have a dirty network of interests with Tusaya in secret.

With the death of one Tusaya, it is necessary to support another.

It's too time-consuming and laborious; it's better to keep the existing one.

To put it bluntly, every galaxy has at least one prominent space pirate.

How do people survive on a desolate planet?

It is impossible for a natural entity to plunder its own galaxy.

Tusaya grew up on a barren planet in another star system. After leaving his birth star system, he used his extraordinary abilities to get to where he is today.

He became someone that hundreds of star systems around him hated to death, yet they couldn't bring him to his death.

With Tusaya alive and him in charge, things will at least stay calm.

But if he dies, these hundreds of star systems will likely be dragged into an interstellar war with no end in sight in a very short time.

The kings of these remote star systems only wanted profit, but they never considered sacrificing their own strongholds.

After glancing at the investigation report in front of her, Ye Yao frowned, also finding it strange.

"If Tusaya wanted revenge, he would never have found this place."

How could someone who has achieved their current status be a fool?

“I am the Queen of Xitu, he should go to Xitu to find me.”

Ye Yao spoke with such certainty that Pei Han believed her.

This woman is not only the queen of Xitu, but also the warden of Blackrock Prison.

Given her position, she had no need to lie to herself.

To put it bluntly, even if Ye Yao really did it, Pei Han wouldn't be able to take her down.

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.

With just a single order from Ye Yao, all the countless criminals in Blackstone Prison, feared throughout the galaxies, could be released.

Even with the few people following Ye Yao, Pei Han wasn't confident he could take her down in a one-on-one situation.

Not to mention the warden who intimidates the entire Blackrock prison.

Therefore, this investigation can basically be overturned and needs to be reinvestigated.

"The Hidden King of the Gamp Galaxy..."

Ye Yao pressed her palms on the table, feeling the coolness travel through her palms to her limbs and bones.

How much do you know about it?

The Gamp Galaxy is a member of the Star Alliance; she only cares about people and doesn't care about anything else behind them.

"This person was also on the ship that day."

She's not the type to stab someone in the back; she always confronts people openly and directly.

Unfortunately, this involves far too many innocent lives. If it really was Lu Huochuan who leaked the information, she would probably kill him.

Not the Virgin Mary.

After all, Lu Huochuan has nothing to do with her now.

Pei Han initiated his investigation.

Outside, the night grew even darker.

The nightingale's song came through the open window, even though it was in a bustling downtown area.

Pei Han remained silent; he must have entered a holographic world.

There are some things she can't hear, and Ye Yao understands that.

She called over the chef and had some fried food brought to her.

It's topped with a layer of powder, and it's slightly spicy.

"Crack, click, click..."

"Kacha kacha——"

When Pei Han returned from the meeting in the holographic world, he saw Ye Yao eating happily.

Reaching out, I picked up a long piece of vegetable coated in batter, with a layer of golden and yellow powder on top.

One bite reveals a crispy exterior and tender interior, complemented by a subtle spiciness and a unique aroma—truly delicious. It's even addictive.

"How did you meet?" Pei Han asked.

She was once engaged to him, but now they are on completely different paths.

Pei Han had no intention of interfering in other people's lives, even though she was Niya's sister.

He has always had a good sense of propriety.

Ye Yao looked at the oily sheen on her fingertips, stuck out her tongue and licked it lightly, completely ignoring Pei Han's attitude across from her.

"Customers from Blackrock Prison," Ye Yao said simply.

She raised an eyebrow. "Is there a problem?"

In the past, Pei Han might not have done anything.

Hearing her say that, I couldn't help but laugh.

Don't get me wrong, I almost laughed out of anger.

"This guy is no pushover; the Gamp Galaxy and the Xitu Galaxy have an irreconcilable feud."

"Be careful, he might screw you over."

Pei Han reached out and took the food in front of her, placing it in front of herself.

"Lucifer is from the Gamp system."

Ye Yao: “…”

She rarely finds herself speechless.

He opened his personal terminal and dialed Lu Huochuan's number.

She had been calling for a long time, and was about to hang up and dial again when that face that made her heart flutter appeared.

"Lu Huochuan, do you have any other names?"

She got straight to the point.

Pei Han on the other side: "..."

How should I describe the woman in front of me?

She truly didn't want to play any tricks; she was straightforward and decisive.

Envy can also breed jealousy.

There are very few people who live as freely as she does.

Lu Huochuan's crimson eyes softened with a gentle smile, a gentleness that was definitely not the ambiguous look a man gives a woman.

Rather, it is a feeling of satisfaction and appreciation.

"Did you run into Pei Han?"

He didn't answer, yet it seemed as if he had answered everything.

Upon hearing his name, Pei Han's icy voice rang out.

"Lucifer, it really is you."

The man had a pleased smile on his face.

He looked at Ye Yao with almost affectionate eyes, his gaze so alluring it couldn't be more seductive.

"Lu Huochuan is also my name. My family's ancestral home is the Ganpu Galaxy."

He raised his hand and gently tapped his forehead.

"Your Majesty, shall we meet again?"

The feud between the two families can be considered over.

Or perhaps, it's intense.

The Northon family framed Lucifer's elders, and after escaping, he completely destroyed the number one family in the interstellar world in just a few decades.

Unfortunately, only one son was left.

Ye Yao couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes crinkling with laughter, but her expression betrayed no emotion.

"You already know my identity, right?"

Lu Huochuan raised the corners of his eyes, exuding charm, "You didn't hide anything from me either. Whether you know it or not is not important to me."

He then laughed.

"The eldest daughter of the Norsen family has become the warden of Blackrock Prison..."

This is explosive in itself.

If the news were to leak to the Senate, Nia would have no hope of ever becoming the Chief Executive of the Star Alliance.

"So, Your Majesty, what is your answer?"

His crimson pupils now resembled two boiling flames, relentlessly scorching Ye Yao's crumbling rationality.

"Do you still want to sleep with me?"

Pei Han looked at Ye Yao calmly, seemingly unsurprised by her answer.

as predicted!

Ye Yao chuckled, "Go to sleep. What do the grudges of the past have to do with me? I don't plan to marry you and have children anyway."

Goodnight, my darlings.
