The Guide to the End of the World: Four Sentinels Compete for Favor

Chapter 498 I will never let him have an easy time

"It's simple. I'm here to be the head of the Earth Alliance government." Ai Wanxin said with a faint smile.

"..." Pei Hongshou was obviously stunned, and then sneered, "I really didn't expect this."

Ai Wanxin seemed not to hear the sarcasm in his words at all, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect it either. You don't know how tight-lipped Feng Jingyi is. No one in the parliament knows about Atlantis."

"Fortunately, General Xue found a way to inform me, otherwise I would still be kept in the dark."

"General Xue? Are you talking about Xue Muqing?" Pei Hongshou asked in a deep voice.

Ai Wanxin nodded: "That's right, General Xue is really smart. He was afraid that I would not believe him and waste time in Guanghui City, so he first found a way to trick me to Liancheng, and then told me about this incident, and then sent me here through the portal in Yingcheng. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to find this place for a while."

Pei Hongshou stared in silence. Xue Mucheng was rescued by Arthur and was Arthur's backup plan in Yan Country. If it was Xue Mucheng who sent her here, did it mean that Arthur planned to cooperate with her and give up Feng Jingyi?

But why didn't Arthur tell me about this?

Besides, if Arthur wanted to give up Feng Jingyi, why would he go to the trouble of getting him out of Glory City? Who was he doing this for?

"Oh, by the way, is my second brother okay?" Ai Wanxin gently patted her palm, as if she had just remembered, and asked, "After Feng Jingyi was arrested, the Bingqiao Residence was deserted, but a large pool of blood was found in his office."

"The Military Intelligence Department told me after testing that the blood all belonged to my second brother Pei Molin. Judging from the angle and height of the splash, the carotid artery must have been injured. Judging from the amount of bleeding, it is almost two-thirds of the total blood volume of an adult male."

Pei Hongshou's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he shouted, "What blood?"

Ai Wanxin pulled up a set of photos from the terminal and projected them in mid-air. In the photos, the Speaker's office was in a mess, with sculptures overturned on the ground, gold-rimmed picture frames tilted on the wall, and the jacquard carpet was stained dark brown by large patches of blood.

On the wall where the sunlight could not reach, there was a dark red rune array painted on it. Blood stains meandered down the smooth wall, as hideous as a poisonous snake covered with tentacles.

Pei Hongshou took two steps forward, his pupils slightly dilated, reflecting the rune on the light screen. He gritted his teeth and said, "You mean, this is Merlin's blood."

Ai Wanxin sighed softly: "This is what the Military Intelligence Department told me, look at this picture."

She picked out a picture from a bunch of pictures, enlarged it and showed it to Pei Hongshou: "This is the ceiling of the Speaker's office. The blood has sprayed on it. You know, the ceiling of Bingqiao Mansion is much higher than that of ordinary houses."

"Their analysis report said that the situation at the time was extremely dangerous. If he had not received timely treatment, he would have been in great danger."

"However," Ai Wanxin changed the subject, "If they came here together through the portal, they should be fine. After all, I see that the medical technology here is quite advanced. As long as they are still breathing, they can be saved."

Pei Hongshou clenched his hands at his sides, and a bloody smell came from his mouth.

The blood color spread in his eyes, and Pei Junlin said in surprise: "Father!"

Pei Hongshou raised his hand and wiped it, leaving a bloodstain on his palm. Blood was flowing out of his mouth, nose and eyes.

"Bang——" There was a loud bang from the hatch behind him, and the heavy hatch made of alloy bulged outward, obviously suffering a very powerful impact from the inside.

Pei Junlin was shocked. He only had time to glance at Ai Wanxin before he disappeared in front of everyone.

Ai Wanxin took two steps forward and grabbed Pei Hongshou's hand. A soft white light lit up, and the blood that had been flowing from his facial features slowly stopped.

Pei Hongshou rushed into the bathroom and washed the blood off his face. The banging sounds in the room stopped and the suite became quiet again.

He placed his hands on the sink, staring at Ai Wanxin's figure in the mirror, and said in a hoarse voice, "What do you mean by telling me this?"

Pei Hongshou knew very well that Ai Wanxin had said these words to him not out of concern for Pei Molin. He knew very well what the relationship between his sons was like.

She wanted to tell herself that Merlin was killed by Feng Jingyi's men.

She wants me to support her as the head of the alliance, not Feng Jingyi!

As expected, Ai Wanxin shrugged slightly: "On the one hand, I care about the safety of my second brother. On the other hand, I don't want you to support the murderer who hurt your son to become the head of the alliance."

Pei Hongshou lowered his head to hide the hatred in his eyes. Feng Jingyi was so bold that he killed his son and yet dared to come here, hoping to borrow his influence to covet the position of the head of the alliance.

After bringing the Feng father and daughter here, Frederick just informed him and didn't mention Merlin at all. Due to health reasons, he didn't have time to ask.

It would be better if he didn't know anything about it, otherwise, I would never let him off easily.
