hunting stars

Under the media's serial reports, a thousand candidates for the high-profile prince's public concubine selection competition have been born.

Since Roger Hill made a public statement about "short hair, tall, not too fair skin, and women should not be too thin", the subsequently selected people, both men and women, have hot bodies and neat short hair.

At the opening ceremony of the official season, the Crown Prince attended as a special guest.When he sat on the VIP seat and looked down the stage, he found that more than half of the crowd were wearing leopard scarves, leopard jackets, leopard skirts, leopard dresses... and even outerwear. Leopard underwear.

The Guard Officer Xue Nuo, who always followed the prince, gasped when he saw this magnificent scene. He thought in horror that he still underestimated the speed of the spread of rumors. At the same time, Countess Sacre showed off her The skill of glorious deeds should not be underestimated.

He took a peek at Roger Hill, who was sitting upright, but he didn't see the expected joy on the prince's face.

On the contrary, for some unknown reason, whenever the crown prince glanced over those eye-catching leopard prints, there would be a hint of embarrassment in his eyes inadvertently.

However, this did not affect his demeanor in public at all. After the prince delivered the opening speech perfectly, bursts of cheers and applause broke out in the huge venue.

The various news reports of the next day were also full of romance and enthusiasm.Under strict publicity control, the news of Baron Parson's death was kept within a very small range, and the state of alert in God's Capital that night was also whitewashed as an act of hunting down an interstellar fugitive. A small bubble floated on the surface of the water and disappeared in the powerful vortex of the prince's selection of concubines, but insiders were all jittery, and rigorous detection and search work was still carried out under the water surface.

In order to show fairness, the first event of the official game is produced by the colored ball spinning machine.

The name of each event is written on a colored ball of the same size, and the computer-driven rotating machine randomly drops out the text on the only ball, which is the event for the next day.In order to prevent cheating, the production process of all colored balls and spinning machines was broadcast live 24 hours a day, so that even the imperial family itself could not conduct any artificial manipulation of the competition.

Roger Hill and Levi watched the results of the first color ball spin at the Crown Prince's residence for the first time.When the host showed the camera the word "Culinary Arts" on the green ball, the prince and his guards looked at each other, both of them fell into a speechless situation at the same time.

After a long time, Roger Hill was the first to recover his voice, "Second Lieutenant, how is your cooking?"

After thinking carefully for a long time, Levi replied, "Is it better to soak the compressed biscuits in hot water? Many people say that my water temperature is the most suitable."

"..." Although he really wanted to say something encouraging, the crown prince suddenly realized that he would also have a day when he was at a loss for words.

So, under the arrangement of the almighty Lieutenant Snow, the three of them came together to the small kitchen in the Crown Prince's mansion where Roger Hill prepared daily food.

That was the beginning of the misery for this well-appointed, well-appointed kitchen.

In the following time, Second Lieutenant Levy cracked two cutting boards and three frying pans, and the menu to be prepared was forced to be downgraded from gorgeous baked snails to simple fried steak, but this still could not stop A man-made arson occurred.

After witnessing a strand of the crown prince's silky blond hair being burned by a sudden fire in the kitchen, the skilled cook and super-endurance officer Xue Nuo finally broke out: "Second lieutenant! What you are holding is not Flash Sword, it’s a kitchen knife! It’s a kitchen knife! Does it take so much strength to chop a piece of meat?! Even if you can split it and the cutting board in half with one knife, what’s the use? Also, it’s sugar, isn’t it? Salt, if you really can’t tell the difference, you can taste it first... What do you put so much in, do you need to pour the whole jar in just to add salt?!... You need to put oil first when frying meat, and you can’t dry it. !"

The baby-faced pseudo-boy was excited and awe-inspiring, while Levi, who was completely lost in his direction, just silently cooked steak, which was very simple for others, over and over again.

"Lieutenant, calm down." Roger Hill, who really couldn't stand it anymore, reminded him.

Although he was also very anxious, seeing Levi being accused by the impatient Xue Nuo again and again, he really couldn't just sit idly by.

"Uh... Your Highness... okay." Lieutenant Xue Nuo, who was in a state of berserk, finally came to his senses.

When it was close to four o'clock in the morning, even Roger Hill, who had been watching from the sidelines, made a successful steak, but Second Lieutenant Levi's culinary skills were still at the stage of burning black pieces of meat.

The eight-hour special training suddenly came to a stalemate.

When Levi picked up another piece of beef and was about to slap it loose, Roger Hill grabbed his wrist with gentle force, "Let's take a rest first, the game is going to start tonight, but you haven't slept all night, So how do you have the energy to fight?"

"sorry……"

He didn't rest all night, and Levi's eyes were already slightly black and blue, but he never complained, but felt deeply guilty that he might really disappoint the crown prince this time.

"You have done a good job, second lieutenant." The prince said sincerely, as long as he thought that the guard's efforts were all for himself, his heart seemed to grow a thin layer of fluff.Warm, soft, and even the body is full of infinite power.

After hearing the crown prince's "very good" comment, the loyal Lieutenant Xue Nuo looked at the charred meat products beside him, and finally decided to turn around, pretending that he hadn't seen anything or heard anything.

After carefully reassuring the frustrated lieutenant and coaxing him to sleep, Roger Hill began a long secret conversation with his lifelong confidant, Lieutenant Snow.

──There are solutions to all problems. If you feel helpless, please think from another angle.

The famous saying that later generations belong to Roger Hill was born on this night.

At [-] o'clock that night, the first event of the crown prince's official concubine selection competition - the cooking competition was divided into two divisions and kicked off in the largest competitive stadium in the empire.The scene of thousands of contestants cooking together is a spectacular scene, which was jokingly described by many media as "the neat teams line up like spaceships, and the cooking fumes are like forest fire smoke covering the sky."

Although there are a large number of players, the competition rules are scientific and rigorous.

Each contestant is limited to one dish, and each dish will be anonymously sealed and tasted by three completely isolated gourmets. The average of the scores given by the three gourmets is the final score of the contestant.The scores of all contestants will be ranked in descending order at the end, and the top [-] will enter the next round.

In this contest without gunpowder, the prince also took part in the tasting of dishes.

And what he was interested in was neither the complicated Chinese delicacies nor the delicious French dishes, but a piece of beef that looked completely burnt.

"Ah, to be able to see this dish!" The crown prince at that time sighed in a tone of surprise that was never used often, "This dish seems to be the truffle and pepper steak in the age of the earth. Can I try it?"

At Roger Hill's urging request, the gourmand who was supposed to try the dish hastily gave up his seat to the prince.However, in less than five minutes, the Crown Prince ate everything on the plate with a very happy expression, not even letting go of the cauliflower that looked rotten.

"Hmm... Sorry, this should be reserved for three people." The prince apologized belatedly, "But it's so delicious, I didn't pay attention for a while..."

"Of course it doesn't matter."

"You don't mind..."

"...If you like it, it's an honor to be a cook."

Everyone scrambled to show that they didn't mind.

The crown prince's blushing expression also made it easy for people to forgive all his mistakes from the bottom of his heart, let alone such a small mistake.The professional judges beside me were just a little curious and regretful: truffle salt and pepper steak... It seems to be a dish that I have never heard of before. Is it really so delicious?Be sure to find a chance to try it next time!

In this way, it was a matter of course that the contestant who made the delicacies that the prince was full of praise achieved an unexpected high score.

No one saw that the prince who left the competition venue in a special car silently took the stomach medicine that Lieutenant Xue Nuo had already prepared, and then, on the way back, he kept rubbing himself to suffer from the pain. Tortured stomach.

At the end of the first round of the competition, in order to celebrate Lieutenant Levi's promotion, the crown prince specially held a small celebration banquet in the mansion.The composition of the participating members is very simple, only the prince himself and the two guards, Xue Nuo and Li Wei.

Roger Hill took out the red wine from the royal family's collection. Under the influence of alcohol, everyone was already a little intoxicated after drinking a few glasses.Seeing that the atmosphere was gradually heating up, Lieutenant Xue Nuo promptly stated that he had other work to do at night, and the Crown Prince logically allowed him to withdraw.

Although it had been three or four hours and he had taken stomach medicine in time, the crown prince's stomach was still in an extremely uncomfortable state, so he didn't drink much red wine.The second lieutenant, who had been wondering why he was able to enter the next round of the competition, was not in the mood to drink to his heart's content. It didn't take long for him to notice the prince's pale face.

"Your Highness, are you not feeling well?"

"No, maybe it's because there are too many things going on recently, so I haven't had a good rest." Roger Hill adjusted his sitting posture, resting his palms on his abdomen in an imperceptible posture.

The guard, who was in a trance after drinking, directly touched his forehead to the prince's forehead without thinking too much, "Do you have a fever?"

He asked with concern, but didn't realize that this action was inappropriate and didn't leave immediately. Then, under his sight, a suspicious red color slowly climbed up the crown prince's fair earlobe.

"Ah, sorry, please forgive my recklessness..."

It was only then that he realized his recklessness, and Levi hurriedly wanted to leave, but was tightly held by Roger Hill's arm around his waist, unable to move.

"Your Highness..." The second lieutenant hurriedly turned his eyes away, not daring to look at the prince's expression.

"Second Lieutenant, in fact, in my heart, I have always admired your bravery that time." The prince's eyes became a little blurred.

"Which time do you mean?"

"What do you say?"

It wasn't until this time that Li Wei suddenly realized what the crown prince meant by "that time". Almost immediately, his cheeks turned red and he stuttered, "That, that time was an accident, and you I'm sad, so, so..."

Roger Hill cut off Levi's unspoken words with a long kiss. After the thorough entanglement of lips and teeth, the Crown Prince rubbed the second lieutenant's cheek intimately with the tip of his nose, and said in an obvious tone of courtship, "The following Time... can I go to your room?"

Compared with the spacious and huge rooms in the crown prince's mansion, the prince always prefers the warm and simple bedroom in the second lieutenant's dormitory.

But it was the words "your room" that made Levi abruptly break away from the lingering atmosphere created by Roger Hill. ──A bomb that may be detonated at any time is currently living in his room, and the crown prince happens to hold the key to open his door.

Although Levi had already thought of this problem when he decided to let Raymond live in, Roger Hill has been too busy recently, so he has no chance to solve this hidden worry.And now, maybe it is a good opportunity.

"Your Highness..."

"Um?"

After thinking for a moment in silence, Levi said with difficulty, "Don't go to my dormitory again, okay?"

"Why?" The crown prince was a little surprised.

"You... are too conspicuous, I'm afraid that one day I will be seen by others."

"..."

Unexpectedly received such an answer, Roger Hill stopped his provocative actions, and after a few seconds of serious eye contact with the guard officer, he suddenly smiled, "So what if you are seen?" Woolen cloth?"

──Aren't you in the process of choosing a concubine publicly? !

Levi really wanted to answer this way, but although the prince was smiling, a dangerous storm seemed to be brewing in his icy blue eyes, which made the second lieutenant change his words unconsciously, "So... Colleagues found out, and I don't know how to explain it."

"Ah... that's right." As if he had just thought of this question, the crown prince tilted his head and thought for a moment before showing a real smile, "It's true that I didn't think it through carefully. If I make it public now, there is indeed something wrong."

The prince's words seemed to hide some important information. Levi just wanted to ask further, but Roger Hill's next sentence took away his thinking ability.

"Then, let's start with me from now on. Lieutenant, are you ready this time? I'm going to...start."

The last few words were like a soft veil brushing past Levi's ears, which aroused the throbbing in the second lieutenant's heart.And the final facts prove that in many cases, alcohol can really play an extremely important role in adding to the fun.

It was already two o'clock in the morning when Levi returned to his own dormitory.

When he walked into the dark living room, the chandelier in the center suddenly lit up brightly. Raymond, who was only wearing a shirt, was holding the lamp remote control in his hand, looking at the second lieutenant who was changing shoes with a half-smile, It seemed that he had been waiting for him all night.

"Aren't you asleep yet?"

"Of course, how can I sleep." The young man said with an ambiguous and teasing tone, "Ever since I saw you in the live TV broadcast of the crown prince's concubine selection contest, I woke up immediately even if I wanted to sleep. Lieutenant, Did Chief Issos know you were going to this grand event?"

Facing this very sensitive issue, Levi was very calm, "He should know now."

"That is to say, you did not report to him, and your actions have nothing to do with the alliance's orders?"

"..." Levi didn't intend to answer the probing questions. The ups and downs of the day made him just want to have a good rest and sleep until dawn.He entered the bedroom with tired movements, and when he was about to close the door, Raymond's unique groaning voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Second lieutenant, you must be the crown prince who fell in love with the empire."

Levi's hand holding the doorknob paused, and this time he had to force himself to speak, "Why do you think so? This is an order from His Royal Highness Roger Hill."

"He ordered you to participate in the concubine selection contest? Why?"

"Your Highness didn't explain the reason." Levi's mind suddenly flashed the way the crown prince apologized to himself when he couldn't tell the reason, and the body that had just cooled down seemed to have a tendency to heat up again.

Willing to do that for himself, the prince's decision probably has a deep meaning that is inconvenient to explain.

But these words obviously cannot be explained to Raymond, and Levi tried his best to smooth out the possible wrinkles in his tone, "Probably to let me be responsible for safety or other reasons. But... Raymond, although Mr. Issos Let’s get in touch, but it’s not within your purview to interfere with my work in the Empire.”

Levi turned his head. Although his expression was tired, it did not affect the deterrent expression in his eyes.When he was growing up, some people interpreted his indifference as weakness, but as soon as these people stepped into his restricted area, the only feeling left was regret.

Seeing the man who looked like a sheep suddenly showing the sharp claws of a lion, Raymond bit his rosy lower lip and laughed fiercely, "What Chief Issos said is to let me assist you, but you will not be naive I think it's as simple as 'assisting'. If you don't understand, maybe I should make it clearer: Second Lieutenant, I am your companion now, but I am also responsible for monitoring your every move. You must report to me about your daily work schedule, especially with regard to the Imperial Crown Prince."

"I have not received the above instructions." Facing the threat, Levi refused to give an inch. He glanced coldly at the sullen young man, "Even if the order given to you by Chief Issos is like this, now I You can also refuse to accept this order. If I guess correctly, killing Baron Parson in a cruel way is your personal interest and decision, and has nothing to do with the task assigned to you by the alliance. From this, I can judge You are an impulsive, crazy, reckless, and unable to control your emotions. When you cause such chaos, you can't even resolve the crisis by yourself. Instead, you have to use my identity in the empire to protect you through this dangerous period .In this sense, I don't think you have the ability to guide and check my work. Or, even if I am willing to tell you this information, how can you verify whether my words are true or not? Raymond, if I am If it’s yours, I’ll stay here obediently, quietly waiting for Officer Issos’ next order, instead of impatiently annoying the companions who are protecting you.”

In the middle of Levi's speech, Raymond stood up abruptly. Following the words of this officer who can be called an excellent officer in both the Alliance and the Empire, the color of the boy's face changed from red to black, and then from black to black again. Turning blue, after his chest heaved violently a few times, he let out a breath slowly, and his face returned to normal at an incredible speed, even showing a smile.

"I'm just a little impatient," he seemed to be explaining, "After all, your work progress determines when we can return to the alliance. But in my opinion, since you have become the prince's guard officer, it is necessary to obtain him DNA is difficult but not impossible."

"I can understand your feelings, and please believe that I am working hard."

"certainly."

"It seems that we have reached a consensus, then I will go to rest first."

Just when Levi was about to turn around, Raymond asked, "Second Lieutenant, I want to contact Chief Issos, what can you do? Ah... please rest assured that I will remember what we said just now."

Li Wei stared at this strange boy for a few seconds, but the other party just smiled.

After a while, the second lieutenant pulled off the ring on his little finger and threw it to him, "There is a mirror behind the door of the other inner bedroom, you should know how to use it."

"I'll give it a try." Raymond caught the tungsten ring in the air.

"Then good night." Without intending to stay any longer, Levi rubbed his brows and closed the door gently.

"Good night."

The young man spit out these two words slowly. After seeing the second lieutenant disappearing through the door with a tired face, he didn't waste any time and went directly to the inner bedroom with the unlocked door. There is an oval mirror.With his rich experience in spy warfare, it didn't take long for him to figure out how to use this thing, and immediately used it to call Issos.

Probably because it was late at night in the alliance capital, Issos did not answer immediately, but appeared on the other end of the holographic communication device after more than ten minutes.

"Ramon?" Issos raised one eyebrow habitually, slightly surprised by the caller.

"Are you surprised to see me?"

"A little bit." As if he just got up from the bed, Isos yawned sleepily, "You are getting bolder and bolder. It seems that you really don't take our orders seriously. Even The host who concealed his identity can also be killed without hesitation."

"Host?" The brigadier general following the alliance repeated these two words lightly, and a burst of laughter suddenly exploded from Raymond's thin body.

"Hahahahaha...hehe...hehehe..."

Gradually, his voice became lower and lower, and in the end it was only a vibration deep in his chest.After hanging his head and shaking his shoulders for a while, the boy's faint voice seemed to come from hell, "Host... do you know what the identity cover arranged by this alliance has done to me? Have you tried it? Before you Punching all the iconic places on the body just to find the best place to wear a pet name tag; or being fucked by more than five men in rotation for two days and two nights when you were 13 years old; or non-stop for three years I will inject you with hallucinogens that have aphrodisiac effects, and then let a special trainer perform various body modifications on you. That's right, I killed Baron Parson, and killed him mercilessly. After I put When his flesh was cut from the bone, I wasn't afraid at all, I was happy because I had imagined such a scene hundreds of times in the past three years, and I should thank the gods of the universe for giving me a chance to die to make it a reality.”

The teenager's ferocious expression and crazy blue eyes made him look crazy and bewildered.

Facing such a subordinate, Issos did not express any sympathy or condemnation, "You are not calling me at this time just to say these things."

"I acted without permission, won't the alliance punish me?"

"Everyone is dead, and it's too late to do any remedial action now." Issos expressed his headache and supported his forehead, "Your task remains the same, it is still to assist Levi to complete the task and supervise him, as long as he can If you successfully steal the DNA of the imperial crown prince, I guarantee that even your punishment will be cancelled.”

After hearing such a lenient decision, Raymond did not show any joyful expression. He suddenly narrowed his eyes, grinned and said, "You still want to lie to me, sir? I wasn't sure at first, but listen Seeing such a decision that doesn't fit your personality really makes me believe the news I heard from Baron Parson. In fact, no matter what I do, the alliance will not punish me, right? Like us There are only two fates for precious 'things'—use them well or destroy them completely, don't they?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Issos seemed impatient to hear him go mad again.

Raymond continued on, "About half a year ago, Baron Parson's attitude towards me suddenly changed. Except for the time when the imperial prince came and drove me to the backyard, he even treated me very well at other times. I used to Guess what he said to me when the Baron was drunk one time? He's a real madman, obsessed with the Dauphin to the point of insanity because I look like Roger Hill Similar, I took some of my DNA samples, and hired a bioengineer who has managed the peripheral DNA bank of the royal family with a lot of money, trying to secretly create another person who is more like the prince. But who knows that biologist He was very surprised when he got my genetic genealogy map. Guess what he found? Oh... Sir, you must have guessed that I actually have an incomplete sample of the imperial family's DNA. I am distantly related to the crown prince of the empire. Baron Parson was shocked when he suddenly found out that his pet had such a noble status, and he said that I might be a prince living outside the imperial family.”

The teenager who looked similar to Roger Hill fiddled with the ends of his pale golden hair, with a sinister smile on his face, "But I don't think so. I grew up in the league for as long as I can remember. Parents, no relatives, always surrounded by staff in white uniforms and the glass walls of the laboratory. Once, they even went to the wrong room when they came back from the wind, and were severely punished with a whip, lying on the bed I couldn’t get up for half a month. But it was the beating that made me firmly remember what I saw in that room. It was a row of boxes like crystal coffins, and each box contained a person , they all look exactly the same. Because I was so young at the time, I can't remember exactly what that person looked like now, but I remember the labels on those boxes clearly, and they all said 'Live' on them.  …It was amazing Coincidence right? I also just met a guy not too long ago who just happened to be my mate from the league and his name was also--Levy. I guess he was called Levy in the league too, just a different last name from now .”
