Half of the throne is for you [future]

When Ao Yin said that she was going to deal with matters related to the celebration, there was a rare unnatural pause in her words.

So, she came back at that time, does the subtext actually contain a farewell?

Li Zhuonan regretted deeply because of her slowness, it would be great if she could realize something at that time.

But what's the use of knowing it?

Even Ao Yin, who is a duke, can't save herself, little human beings should save themselves, she can't instigate Hong Lie and Garcia to rebel.

"Only some of the Ye clan in the scientific research institute know about this matter, so I hope you keep it a secret! After all, I would be very troubled to be accused after dealing with the idlers around Aoyin. I have no appetite at all..." Duke Boyka of the Architectural Department reminded her softly, the sunlight in the courtyard was just right, but when it fell on his side face, it was tainted with a cold murderous look.

The implication in the words is obvious, he wants Li Zhuonan to keep it absolutely secret, at least not to let irrelevant people know before this matter spreads widely.

Li Zhuonan is not used to having a man so close to him, so he slightly tilted his head away from his aura: "So, why did you tell me?"

"Of course it's for a deal!" Boyka showed her purpose without reservation, staring at her black hair scattered on her shoulders, the faint fragrance of the ends of the hair wafted in the air, "It is absolutely unforgivable for us to eat our own people , but if you agree to the conditions, maybe I will twist the rules of the night clan because of it."

To Li Zhuonan's surprise, the condition proposed by the Foodie Duke was not to use one of his own arms or legs as a snack, but...

"How about changing the owner, move out from Aoyin's place to mine, equal treatment, more freedom!" Boyka, with a malicious smile like a wolf grandmother, spread his hands and showed his palms, trying to pretend to be innocent. Harmful look.

The enchanting slender pupils were completely narrowed into a line under the sunlight, concealing the feeling of being more cunning than a fox on weekdays.

It's a pity that the person being seduced is not Little Red Riding Hood who is ignorant of the world. Li Zhuonan feels that if he falls into the hands of the other party, the only end will be to unload eight pieces of braised pork and steam them, and make them eat like a human being.

"Even if I agree, Ao Yin probably won't agree, why don't you ask her directly?" Li Zhuonan said after a moment of silence, with a cold attitude.

Boyka's smile froze, and she twitched the corners of her lips with lingering fear: "Actually, I went to ask her first, and said that after the change of family property, I can not let me inherit it for a period of time, and then hand it over when she grows up again... As a result, another half of the head was missing."

Li Zhuonan opened his eyes wide against the sun, and found that his hair color was much lighter than before, and it looked like it had just grown out.

She was also able to aggressively beat her fellow clansmen, at least the Duchess was fine for now.

"It's really unfortunate——" Li Zhuonan's tone was calm, and the drawn-out ending sounded a little gloating.

She had to go back and spend some time to sort out her thoughts. She waved her hand and turned around and walked towards the residence: "I will definitely contact you before the execution begins."

"Wait a minute! I've already told you such an important thing, so don't you plan to pay a tip?" Boyka was completely injured by her swiftness, followed behind with aggrievedness, and continued to bargain, "The injuries caused are definitely Within the scope of your self-healing, there will be no sequelae."

Li Zhuonan stopped but didn't look back, thought for a while and decided to give some benefits: "I can collect the flakes of skin and give them to you."

"Ah! Human, you are so disgusting..." Boyka covered her mouth in disgust, her face paler against the bright indigo blue of the lupine.

No matter how you think about it, the guy who eats people is even more disgusting!

Li Zhuonan, who had long since given up communicating with aliens, quickly returned to the temporary rest area of ​​the Duke's subordinates.

The surroundings are still calm, no one except her knows what happened to Ao Yin.

After Li Zhuonan ran back to the room, he immediately turned on his optical brain to search the news of the past few days, but there was no accusation about Ao Yin's rape or the so-called "eating from the same family".

The floating screen kept flashing words in front of her eyes. She was a little relieved, and then used her authority to log into the Earl's Mansion network, and searched for "research institute" as a keyword.

The Seventh Duke of the Ye Clan's scientific research institute is equivalent to a government representative. It opens a website for ordinary people to browse, and usually publishes some official news in a formulaic tone that no one reads.

But with the permission of nobles to browse, they can see different degrees of so-called secrets according to their titles.

The owner of this house, Earl, is Aoyin's direct subordinate, and also the Duke of the Entertainment Department, and his access to relevant information is higher than that of other branches.

"...However, it seems that there is nothing special?" Li Zhuonan still found nothing in the intranet of the scientific research institute, and there was no mention of Duke Aoyin in any of the messages. He wondered if Poika, a foodie, had deceived himself.

Something is wrong!

It is precisely because Ao Yin was not mentioned that something is wrong!

The 9000 year celebration is a major event on Neville, with Aoyin's office efficiency and the posture of the Night Clan mobilization, it is not uncommon to issue an order every few hours.

The selection of the venue for the celebration, the selection of building materials and the finalization of the process, the decisions made by the Entertainment Department are dazzling... But since the day before yesterday, Ao Yin's orders have come to an abrupt end!

She's really... in trouble...

Li Zhuonan turned off the floating screen mechanically, not knowing what emotion to use at this time.

What should we do?Forced replacement sounds very painful, probably similar to the death penalty, but who made her offend——

Wait!

The pupils of the chaotic human suddenly lit up, realizing the misunderstanding of their own thinking.The most important thing now is not to determine whether Ao Yin has really violated the night clan taboo?

Ao Yin was accused - who accused her?What happened to the eighth duke?

Although it is not uncommon to do anything with the character of the Duke, but now she should be under observation and not executed. After all, she is also a Duke, and it is impossible to fall so quickly!

Could it be that Boyka lied?

Li Zhuonan thought about turning on the optical brain again, and finally decided what information he should check.

……

In fact, as humans have speculated, not all of Poika's words are true, and false information accounts for a large part of it.

He just deliberately exaggerated the situation ten times to scare Li Zhuonan, but he didn't force the other party to agree on the spot, which was very disappointing.

There are rumors in the scientific research institute that the disappearance of the Eighth Duke decades ago is directly related to Ao Yin.But until now, it was just rumors, two of the Seven Dukes almost immediately found Ao Yin's crimes, and the others were still collecting evidence.

On the outskirts of Neville Star Emperor Capital, there is a huge research institute base.

The highly developed traffic allowed Aoyin to return here from the ancient battlefield within ten minutes. The lounge was cleaned and the table was full of food.

Ao Yin cut the half-meter-diameter steak into pieces with exactly the same area, but did not eat it right away.

"Don't you have an appetite?" Geerlu pushed the door open and entered. The military uniform was on her body. She was 1.9 meters tall because she always stood upright, which made her look much taller than the lazy Aoyin.

Ao Yin, who didn't look up, continued to cut the steak: "No, I prefer to enjoy it after cutting it. At the beginning, I laid out slowly, and it didn't matter how much time and energy I put in. At the end, I pulled up the line... The pleasure brought by it is comparable to cutting it. Eating one piece is several times more.”

These words are obviously not about eating...

Geer showed a blank face and reminded: "The other dukes are on their way, and they will verify that matter immediately. You still have a chance to save yourself if you leave now. Otherwise, with their character, in order to carve up the Entertainment Bureau while you are changing Power will definitely find evidence against you."

"It was Lin Xiu who told you that?" Aoyin raised her eyebrows, pointing out who her inference came from. "It's rare for other dukes to come out of their own territory. Of course I welcome them. There are no high-ranking nobles in the Academy of Sciences throughout the year." , If no one comes again, the common people will think that this place is abandoned by us.”

Gelu stood at the door and did not move forward, short mint-colored hair stuck to his forehead lifelessly: "After the death of the eighth duke, the People's Livelihood Department took over part of the work of the Food and Beverage Department, but some were jointly managed by other dukes. You are in the growth period of the generation change, this part of power will definitely be taken away, but the seven dukes restrict each other and there should be no more power imbalance, otherwise even me in the military department will be affected, so Lin Xiu asked me to help you."

"A waste like you who is simple-minded and only knows how to fight, the only advantage is that you have a clear-headed assistant officer." Ao Yin curled her lips, raised her head and poured the cut steak into her stomach in one breath.

Picking up the napkin and wiping the corners of his mouth, the purple-eyed Duke said calmly, "Perhaps decades have been too long, and they have forgotten something... It wasn't that no one doubted me when the Eighth Duke died completely, but before I'm fine, and I'm still going to be fine."

Gelu's eyes lit up, and he cheered up: "You didn't eat the same people? I always believe that these are all rumors released by the Wupa tribe to disrupt the celebration... There are too many Neville civilians in the high-level of the scientific research institute. People can spread baseless rumors!"

"Ah, who knows." Ao Yin responded casually indifferently.

……

Decades ago, there were eight people in the duke seat of the scientific research institute. Even the older Neville civilians knew about it, and Garcia once mentioned it to humans as a gossip.

Afterwards, one of them died completely without leaving spores, and news spread among the Night Race.At the same time, Duke Aoyin left Neville's home planet in a low-key manner and went to the colonial planet. He hadn't appeared for decades, and had to come back only after His Majesty Feng Ji changed.

"Actually, it's nothing special to eat enough, and then there are only seven of the Eight Dukes."

"The Yezu are creatures without emotions, they reproduce by themselves, and everyone is lonely and independent..."

It seems to be a psychological effect, the optical brain levitation screen trembled with Li Zhuonan's unstable emotions at the moment.

Combined with the few words that Ao Yin revealed intentionally or unintentionally before, she seems to understand the truth...

The eighth place, who used to be in charge of the Food and Beverage Department——Duke Xueyusha, died of the ban on eating among the same family, and the perpetrators left the home planet to avoid the limelight.
