Just like Xing said, if you want to arrest someone, you need at least one piece of evidence.

But now, there are no witnesses and no physical evidence.

Not to mention evidence of infiltration, there is no evidence of identity forgery.

"I'm going to leave for a moment."

Bronya didn't care about the three people's reactions and hurried out of the interrogation room.

"Give them a pot of hot tea, and if they require food, try to satisfy it."

"No one is allowed to see them until I return."

She instructed the guard.

"Yes, Lady Bronya."

Is this considered entertaining the suspect? Although the guard was surprised and confused, he nodded and did as he was told.

"The Yayas on the Lingzhou Line are quite considerate of the train crew, but it seems a bit abrupt."

"It was only a brief encounter at Krippenburg. Normally, I shouldn't have given it so much thought."

As he was speaking, Ah Xian suddenly froze.

She saw the content of the paid message.

"Did I miss the plot?"

"Or is it a hidden plot?"

I went out of my way to find the video to finish it and found out that there was a scene where Ya Ya took advantage of the situation and got arrested.

"No wonder Lingzhou said the person who came was an acquaintance. It turns out he's been in jail for the second time..."

The triggering method is a bit too crude, and you have to search through all the trash cans on the map.

Who in their right mind would do such a thing while pushing the main storyline?

[Switching to Bronya's perspective...]

Regarding the arrest of the train crew, Bronya seems to lack conclusive evidence and decides to ask Cocolia.

Enter Klipperburg.

"Greetings, mother."

Cocolia turned around and frowned, "Why are you back at this time?"

Bronya: "I want to know where the evidence of those outsiders' intention to infiltrate Beloberg came from."

"Didn't I tell you they were approaching Beloberg under false pretenses, intending to undermine the City Builders' control over him?"

"Where did you get the conclusive evidence? You didn't answer my question."

Bronya continued to ask.

Cocolia's face turned cold: "You don't need to worry about this. I have my own channels to find out."

"But, to judge a criminal, there must be a jury—"

"That's enough! Bronya, you've been getting more and more outrageous lately! As a soldier, there's only one thing you have to do!"

Cocolia interrupted her abruptly, her tone much heavier.

"That is to obey the orders of the Great Guardian and nip any threat to Beloberg in the bud."

"I will provide you with evidence when the outsiders are judged. Now, please step aside."

Bronya's face was full of struggle, and she couldn't help but clench her fists.

But in the end, all the thoughts turned into helplessness.

"Yes, Great Guardian..."

She even used official titles in private, which showed how dissatisfied she was with Cocolia's answer.

Many players looked indignant.

[Cocolia doesn't care about her face anymore! ]

[I'm afraid she'll want to kill us on the day of judgment. She must have become a star core slave.]

Chapter 29 You don't want to lose your home, Bronya

[Poor Yaya, she was oppressed by the strong for redressing her master.]

[Typical subordinates are not allowed to kiss their boss, let alone their mother.]

[But why do I feel like... Yaya doesn't look like Cocolia? ]

Seeing the last comment, Axian did not give any spoilers.

Let’s turn our attention back to the Trail Blazers.

There were indeed a few more plates of breakfast and a pot of tea on the table.

The train crew was talking and laughing, and didn't look like they were being arrested at all.

Until the sound of a door opening was heard on the left side of the screen.

"Commander Bronya, have you found any evidence that we intend to infiltrate Beloberg?"

Lingzhou asked straight to the point.

Bronya was stunned. How did he know that she...

Now that she was seen through, she no longer tried to hide it.

Just as she was about to answer, Ling Zhou's next words made her look stunned.

"It doesn't matter if I can't find it. I have evidence."

"I'm sorry... I don't quite understand what you mean."

The suspect said that he had evidence of the reason for his arrest. Is this a disguised confession?

"Look at this."

Under Bronya's slightly changing gaze, Lingzhou took out his cell phone out of thin air like a magic trick.

Turn on the projector and the picture is projected onto the dark wall, which is very clear.

The content is naturally the one recorded at the Goethe Hotel last night.

"What is a star core...? What caused the rift...?"

Bronya couldn't help but murmur. After coming back to her senses, she looked at the three people warily and gripped the rifle tightly in her hand.

"So your identities are really fake!"

Xing: "Don't worry, you can see and hear it now. We are here to help you."

"We finished talking about this tonight, and you received orders to arrest us the next day. Don't you think it's a coincidence?"

"Although this video is just a play, you should understand that there are listening devices in the room."

"Do you think the person who set up the monitoring equipment is related to Cocolia?"

Bronya froze, frowning in thought.

It is unethical to spy on others.

But since they are outsiders, it is understandable that as people in power, they should be more cautious.

But the problem was that, judging by the sound alone, it was impossible to tell that they intended to infiltrate Beloberg.

On the contrary, they are here to help resolve the Rift Crisis.

There is something said on March 7th that is correct.

Those who are doing their utmost to defend their homes and want to survive have no reason to refuse help from outsiders.

Your home is about to be lost, why bother thinking so much?

In recent years, the expansion of the rift has been getting faster and faster, and now a large area of ​​the city of Beloberg has fallen.

If this continues, the area where humans can live will shrink by more than half within half a year.

Seeing her thinking, Lingzhou asked the key question.

"Cocolia didn't tell you about the existence of the star core, or that the rift was caused by the star core, right?"

Bronya came back to her thoughts and nodded.

Xing: "She sent you to capture us because of the star core."

"Why?!" Bronya was confused this time.

"why?"

Lingzhou smiled faintly, hugged his arms nonchalantly, and crossed his legs.

"With all due respect, if you didn't take the position of leader of the Silvermane Guard through some backdoor, you should have the answer."

Hearing this, Bronya pursed her lower lip.

Of course she wanted it.

Just... I don't want to believe it.

She didn't believe that the mother of the Great Guardian and the leader of the City Builders would conceal the culprit who caused the Rift.

To put it in a positive way, it avoids causing panic.

But isn't she even worthy of knowing?

In recent years, Cocolia has continued to act on his own and send his Iron Guards into dangerous situations.

The reason is to find the reason for the appearance of the rift or to block its expansion.

But every time many people died due to insufficient preparation and lack of manpower.

Now, as soon as Kokolia heard the outsiders talking about the star core, she sent people to capture them without hesitation.

No one was even sent to verify the outsiders' claims...

As Lingzhou said, how could she not think of this?

I don't seek verification because I know what he said is true.

Sending people to arrest is crossing the red line.

Then the problem is coming.

Why is it considered crossing the red line to talk about the culprit who has displaced countless people and endangered their lives?

The rifle in Bronya's hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

She didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Ling Zhou: "To make a long story short, the reason we're helping Beloberg is simple."

"Without sealing the star core, we cannot jump out of this star region."

"Helping you is helping ourselves. We are walking upright and sitting straight."

"Initially, hiding my identity and true motives was simply a necessary caution when traveling outside."

"We can't rely on Cocolia, so we hope you can help us. After all—"

"You don't want to lose your home, do you, Bronya?"

Bronya was in a state of confusion.

On one side is the mother who raised her, and on the other side is the cruel truth told by outsiders.

Subconsciously, she believed that Lingzhou did not tell a lie.

But deep in her heart, she still held a glimmer of hope because of the affection for her family and the kindness of Cocolia in raising her.

"Maybe... Mother is just too sensitive, that's why she treats you... uh—"

Before she could finish her words, Bronya's expression froze and she fell forward.

Xing quickly caught her, but when he saw the person behind her, he couldn't help but stare.
