In the end, Revol couldn't escape a beating; how could he possibly escape from Rhine's hands?

Rhein caught Revol effortlessly, then pulled down Revol's pants and gave him a good beating on the buttocks.

So Revol got another pair of little bottoms covered in handprints.

The next day during break, Revol, rubbing his still slightly sore bottom, pulled Sueno to a secluded corner of the playground to cricket their own male and female crickets.

"Little brother, how could our father do this? No matter what the score was, I improved compared to last time. Instead of praising me, he even beat me up."

"If he continues like this, he'll lose such a good cub like me sooner or later, and then he'll regret it."

"And the male father was the same. He saw the female father grabbing me but didn't come to help. He just watched me get beaten up by the female father. It was really too much."

"When we play together, he calls me his sweetheart and darling, but when something really happens, he doesn't say a word. Seriously, I'm not playing with him next time."

......

Sueno's mind was blank; he nodded or shook his head occasionally to show he was listening, no matter what Revol said.

Sueno knew that her brother just wanted to vent and didn't need to respond.

When Revol first complained to Sueno in this way, Sueno listened very carefully and then gave her very serious advice.

It turned out that Revol didn't need other insects' opinions; he just wanted to finish saying what was on his mind, and that would be the end of it.

From then on, Sueno learned that when Revol came to him to vent his frustrations, he would just blank out his mind and become an emotionless confidant.

Revol was in the middle of his rant when he suddenly saw Lynn, who had turned into a teenager, hurrying across the playground, and his attention was instantly diverted.

"Ah, it's Brother Lynn. Where is he rushing off to?" Revol said.

Lu Yuan would occasionally contact the group of children he had personally recruited to work on Golan Star, and even took them to the manor to play. That's why both Revol and Sueno knew Lynn.

Sueno glanced at Lynn's retreating figure and said.

"I don't know, there must be some urgent matter. Oh, bro, never mind, class is about to start, let's hurry back to the classroom."

Revol's eyes darted around, and he said.

"What's so fun about class? I'm not going back to the classroom. Little brother, why don't we secretly follow Brother Lynn and see what he's up to?"

Sueno was extremely unhappy. He was a good student who studied hard and made progress every day. How could he skip class?

Unfortunately, he couldn't persuade Revol, and Revol was slightly stronger than him, so Sueno was eventually dragged away by Revol, and the two children followed Lynn like thieves.

Revol and Sueno had been trained by Rhine since childhood and were very skilled at tracking, so Lynn never noticed that there were two little tails following him.

Revol and Sueno followed Lynn to a small grove, where Ace, Aman, and Iser, whom they also knew, were already waiting.

As soon as Lynn arrived, Ace, Aman, and Iser immediately surrounded him.

"Lynn, did you get Hill's reply?" Ace asked.

"Got it."

"Did the letter say when he'll be back? El is still waiting to see him at the hospital," Aman asked.

This time, Lynn remained silent.

Noticing that Lynn's expression was a little off, Isher asked.

"What's wrong, Lynn? Why are you suddenly quiet?"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lynn finally spoke.

"Hill said in his letter that he was not coming back and that he would go directly to the capital planet to start a new life after his contract expired."

The scene was silent for a few seconds before Ace, Aman, and Isher, after their initial shock, spoke one after another.

"How could Hill do this? El is injured and lying in the hospital, and all he wants to do is see his brother. Before, it was understandable that he couldn't come back before his contract with the Netherlands Company expired, but now his contract is about to expire, why hasn't he come back to see El?"

"That's right. Back in the orphanage, Hill clearly loved El the most. She went to the Netherlands Company to save up for El's tuition. How come El has suddenly disappeared now?"

"He wants to start a new life on the capital planet. No bug will stop him. El isn't the type to hold the bug back. Couldn't he come and see El first before leaving?"

Ace, Aman, and Isher took turns giving Hill a thorough dressing-down, while Lynn kept his head down and remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.

After the three insects finished their tirade, Lynn finally spoke up, saying, "Don't you think this is a bit strange?"

Ace, Aman, and Isher exchanged glances and asked in unison.

"How so?"

"Ever since Hill went to the Netherlands Company, although letters have been sent back from time to time, the content of each letter is more or less the same, all just clichés. Al wrote so many letters to Hill, but Hill hardly mentioned Al in his letters. What do you think..."

At this point, Lynn paused, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"Do you think something might have happened to Hill?"

After Lynn finished speaking, the scene fell silent again, but this time, in addition to the silence, a heavy atmosphere lingered among the four insects.

After a period of silence, Lynn spoke again.

"Why don't we go find Hill together and find out what happened?"

"How do we find it?" Ace asked.

"I heard from Dean Pei Si that the Netherlands Corporation seems to have recruited some more bugs on Kami Star, and they will be sending them away in a while. We are about to have a holiday, so we can take this opportunity to go back to the orphanage and try to sneak onto the Netherlands Corporation's spaceship that is sending the bugs away."

"Once we get to where Hill works and find him, we should be able to figure out what's going on," Lynn said.

Ace, Aman, and Iser all agreed. The four insects then discussed some details before dispersing.

After they left, Revol and Sueno emerged from the bushes where they had been hiding.
