He Yunan was silent for a while, and then opened his mouth when he saw Gu Huan looking at him again.
“I have always suspected that there might be something wrong with what happened back then.”
“Your body is in the research institute, and only a few people there are aware of this.”
“Because of my research, the teacher I followed was the former dean of the Institute, so I came into contact with this secret.”
“Once I realized that you are not a legend but a real person who existed, I started to have several doubts.”
Gu Huan looked at He Yunan’s expression. He Yunan’s expression was very natural and calm, and he listed several items.
“Why, despite being so powerful, did you suddenly die before the inception of the nation? Why did the Chu Family go to such great lengths to cover up your existence and even erase the evidence of your authenticity after your death?”
“At the time, I suspected that there was something fishy going on.”
“If the Chu Family were genuinely acting out of necessity and took up their positions under dire circumstances, why did they engage in so many seemingly suspicious activities?” He Yunan sneered.
“I wanted answers.”
“But I never thought I would actually succeed.”
“When I heard about the successful experiment from the Empress, and when he asked me what to do next to rescue you, that’s when I realized that my wild idea had actually worked, and you were born.”
“…”
Gu Huan didn’t know how to respond to He Yunan.
Was this person really so bold as to create an artificial human without even knowing what that tree was?
Wasn’t he afraid of creating an uncontrollable monster?
“You were born with knowledge of your past, and you told me many things about the past. As I suspected, it was the Chu Family who betrayed you,” He Yunan said, revealing a look of pain and loathing as he lowered his head.
“How many energy planets were devoured by the Zerg and turned into barren planets? If it weren’t for the Chu Family betraying you, wouldn’t all of this never have happened?”
“I’ve thought about this many times,”
Gu Huan glanced at He Yunan’s clenched fingers and continued to listen.
“It’s time to make amends for this mistake,” He Yu Nan raised his head.
“To help you, I assisted Chu Fengyuan.”
“The Zerg Crystal he now possesses was created by me after collecting your diffused mental power from back then.”
“Since it’s something that was collected and cannot be produced, it will inevitably run out one day. He had me research new experimental subjects to create beings like you, to continue providing him with that kind of mental power.”
“But this was originally an impossible task. Without the seed on that tree, this experiment to create an artificial human could only produce flawed copies.”
“Their mental power is different from yours, but it’s also not as dangerous as yours.”
No wonder… people like Nie Chuan could meditate.
Gu Huan thought.
“So, with the current Zerg Crystals resources, there will be a day when Chu Fengyuan’s resources will run out. Then, you will be the source. At that time, you can reverse control over the Zergs that Chu Fengyuan is controlling.”
“Your mental power diffuses everywhere, and every command you issue will be responded to by the Zergs. You can reclaim the crown of the human camp and even… replace the Zerg Queen.”
“I reported you to the Interstellar Court Planet, only to prevent you from continuing to be trapped between Chu Xinglin and Chu Fengyuan. It doesn’t matter which side you support.”
“Both of them are your enemies. All you need to do is… leave this place and stay hidden until they mutually destroy each other and you reap the benefits.”
This is a good plan.
It’s simply the most mature “revenge” script to follow after missing the Victory Day.
Gu Huan’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and he was about to say something when the prison guards interrupted him.
“General Gu, Director He.”
“It’s time.”
Looking away from the visitor, He Yunan stood up and said as he stood.
“General, you must get out as soon as possible. My dog son can only learn more by following you.”
Dog son? Who is that?
Before Gu Huan could react, he heard the prison staff nearby discussing animatedly.
“I just watched the surveillance footage.”
“I was wondering why Director He, who’s here to handle the Interstellar Court Star’s security defense system, came to visit with such enthusiasm when he heard that General Gu Huan had been arrested. It turns out that these two have this kind of relationship.”
“Director He’s son, who is about to enter the second year of military school, did his summer internship in General Gu Huan’s military district last year. During the military training for new students, General Gu Huan was his instructor.”
“Director He has been grateful to the General for a long time.”
He Yunan.
He Qixing.
Gu Huan finally realized.
He Yunan is actually He Qixing’s father.
He was wondering why He Yunan looked so familiar, and now it all made sense.
From the conversations of the prison guards, it was evident that the content on the surveillance footage was likely different from the real conversation that had taken place between them.
Gu Huan now understood that He Qixing’s father was sending him a signal: to break out of prison as soon as possible, asking if he was willing to escape.
Considering Chu Xinglin and all that had happened between them, Gu Huan slightly tilted his head and stood up from the chair. His golden eyes passed by calmly as he replied,
“Alright, I’ll do my best.”
It was a quiet night in the detention center.
Gu Huan was lying on the narrow bed, his long limbs slightly curled up and his eyelids slightly closed as if he was sleeping.
A voice from the detention center staff called out, “General Gu Huan, please come out. The doctor from the infirmary wants to perform a check-up on you.”
His eyes snapped open, and his golden irises showed no signs of sleep.
The cold and handsome alpha passed by a few prison guards without looking away. Even though he was a prisoner and they were the guards, he still had an aura that made people want to salute him.
The prison guards exchanged glances, and they all saw the helplessness in each other’s eyes. Even though they were the ones responsible for escorting him, they felt as if they were his security guards.
Despite the potential illusion, the prison guards continued to follow Gu Huan, and he was led to the infirmary. They waited outside as per regulations.
Inside the infirmary, Gu Huan, still wearing handcuffs, was suddenly pulled into an embrace. He recognized the familiar scent of alcohol.
“Missed me?” Chu Xinglin didn’t want to see Gu Huan suffer, but he was also willing to compromise to achieve what Gu Huan wanted.
While he had made some compromises, he couldn’t suppress the emotions and longing he felt, so he still followed him.
But not just for that…
Gu Huan was silent for a while, he thought of what He Yunan said, then nodded.
Chu Xinglin was deeply moved. They had only been apart for a day, and Gu Huan was also already missing him.
“Has any disrespectful alphas bothered you?”
Gu Huan’s lips curved into a rare smile under his cold expression. “Yes.”
Chu Xinglin was immediately overcome with jealousy, and Gu Huan, who was still handcuffed, was pressed down on the medical office’s bed. Chu Xinglin leaned down, and asked in a low voice,
“Who?”
Was it someone you encountered during group activities, or did one of those unruly prison guards dare to lay a hand on you?
If they dare to covet his wife, he will let them spend ten more years in prison.
Gu Zhuo moved his wrists, trying to get comfortable while wearing the handcuffs. He didn’t like appearing in such a vulnerable position. Simply lying under Chu Xinglin was one thing, but now, with the handcuffs, it felt like some sort of play.
“I’m sitting across from Senior Elder Jin Haoming.”
“He talks… a lot now.”
Chu Xinglin: “…”
“Alright, let’s find an even more boring place for him.”
Let him die of boredom.
Gu Huan chuckled softly. He turned over and was about to leave his current position when Chu Xinglin shifted and embraced him from behind. The bedsheet on the hospital bed formed wrinkles as they adjusted themselves, creating a somewhat cozy atmosphere.
Neither of them did anything more.
Because there were still people outside.
“Have you investigated what you wanted?”
As always, here’s a meme
