Put the interrogation transcripts and related materials in front of Pei Zhaozhou, among them is a picture with a taupe owl badge.

Seeing the taupe owl badge, Pei Zhaozhou's eyes suddenly paused, and he stared at the piece of paper.

Si Huaixi described the detailed process of his interrogation of these mice.

"This Peter, in the past, he was a greedy and petty thief. He resold the supplies of the Empire's logistics department. The empire's supplies were as small as a bottle of nutritional supplements. Dare to make a big deal, earn thousands of interstellar coins each time, and some of the supplies provided by God are not available from outside channels, and they are sold at low prices on the black market. They are still very popular. Over the years, they have earned more than 70 interstellar coins .”

"Originally he thought he could keep it secret, but the night before his departure this time, someone suddenly came to his door and said that if he didn't follow his orders, his corruption would be exposed. The imperial law stipulates that the minimum sentence for corruption is 5 yuan." In [-], the price of this Peter on the black market was lower than normal, and the normal price of corruption was more than one million, and he could already be sentenced to life."

"The man dug up all the records of his black market transactions. Peter was too frightened to disobey, and the man promised to give him a large amount of interstellar coins after the matter was completed, ensuring that he would not be found out to be the one who did it."

"The same goes for the rest of the people. Some of them were caught. The person who threatened them kept secrets well, and he didn't see the person's face clearly. But there was a smarter person named Kofi, and he agreed to it on the face of it. , but he was afraid of getting into trouble and being taken as a scapegoat, so he quietly followed the man who threatened him. That Kofi was a scout, so he almost lost him all the way, and finally found that the man came to a villa after several turns. .”

"That villa is a nobleman's private residence. When Kofi hid in the grass to observe, he found that the button on the sleeve of the butler who opened the door for the man was a gray-brown owl print. Usually noblemen and their servants would wear clothing with the family crest. When Fei saw that it was a nobleman, she was scared and ran away immediately."

Si Huaixi looked inquiringly, looked at Pei Zhaozhou who was thinking at the side, and said: "The nobles with the owl pattern as their family badges include the Harrington, Morris, and Claude families. Brother Pei, do you still remember which family you offended?" member of ?"

A brown-haired figure suddenly flashed through Pei Zhaozhou's thoughts, his brows furrowed, and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.

Si Huaixi: "Brother Pei, who did you think of?"

Pei Zhaozhou hummed slowly, and said three words from his thin lips: "Claude."

Claude?Si Huaixi immediately mobilized information from the intranet, and all relevant news about the Claude family was placed in front of him.

The current patriarch of the Claude family is Charles Claude, the noble rank is earl, and the family symbol is an owl. The current patriarch Charles Claude is the Deputy Minister of Finance of the Empire, and the eldest son Edie Claude is the Second Lieutenant of the Third Army of the Empire , Tracy Crowder's second son works in the Imperial Foreign Office, and a daughter, Karma Crowder, just held a coming-of-age ceremony.

Now the Crowder family is generally criticized by the outside world. Its patriarch, Charles Crowder, is a mediocre Alpha with no achievements. The noble character of the family in the past.

Originally, the predecessor of the Claude family was the soldiers who followed the founding emperor. They were known as the owl next to the king's scepter, acting as the king's secret eyes.

However, the future generations did not live up to it, and the title of the Claude family was repeatedly reduced.

The title of the empire is not static, and the inspection of the title of nobility is carried out every three generations. If the successors and the families behind them do not meet the minimum requirements for their contributions to the empire and the king, they will be downgraded.

The title of nobility is divided into five levels: Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount, and Baron. The Duke is the most honorable, and the Baron is the least.

The Claude family has been downgraded from Marquis to Earl. Although it has only been reduced by one level, the Claude family has become a laughing stock in the aristocratic circle, and the Claude family wants to restore their former glory and return to the power center of the empire. For this reason, he did not hesitate to defect to another nobleman.

Pei Zhaozhou thought of a student he had admired, Edie Claude, the eldest son of the Claude family, who is currently a second lieutenant of the Third Army of the Empire, but unfortunately he was personally sent to the Imperial Military Court...

Unexpectedly, he was acquitted and finally became a second lieutenant in the Third Army of the Empire. If the military files had not left any investigation stains, Edie Crowder might have risen faster.

Si Huaixi didn't know about the dispute between Pei Zhaozhou and the Claude family. According to his superficial information, the Claude family had no problems, so why did he insist on framing Pei Zhaozhou who had left the imperial army long ago.

Si Huaixi asked with suspicion in his eyes: "Brother Pei, what conflict does this Claude family have with you, since you are a commoner, you should not have much disputes with the nobles, I want to know everything about Brother Pei before. "

"In the past, if I had great conflicts with those noble children from the earliest days, Claude can only be counted as one of them."

Pei Zhaozhou sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"What do you think I was when I was young?"

When Si Huaixi was asked this way, he always had a mature and stern look in his impression of Brother Pei, and there was a trace of longing in his heart to know what Brother Pei looked like when he was young.

Before Si Huaixi could answer, Pei Zhaozhou was bored with the past, and said, "I entered the Imperial Military Academy with the best grades in all aspects, and those noble students always disliked commoners like me who overwhelmed them. , Campus bullying was very common at that time, and many civilian students were forced to drop out of school.”

"Mecha training class, this kind of actual combat class is the best place for those noble children to target civilian students. The mecha specially customized by their family is much better than the teaching mecha of the academy. With the same level of mecha operation, the noble children can rely on The custom-made mechas crushed commoner students... But I still defeated them at that time, those noble children's tricks were boring, they wanted to slander me, and use the power of the nobles to force me to drop out of school, which is no different from the nobles now."

Pei Zhaozhou sneered, feeling a little bored.

Si Huaixi cast his eyes deep: "Then did Brother Pei drop out of school?"

Pei Zhaozhou's eyes overflowed with sharpness: "No, I used the opportunity of the actual combat class to reasonably send those noble children to the hospital, entered the imperial army in advance with excellent results, and then conducted mecha exercises with the elders of the noble children. .”

Learn from each other?

Probably beating, it's no wonder Brother Pei has always looked down on those nobles.

He has already sketched the image of a young and arrogant mecha pilot in his mind, even if he got into the quagmire of power and slander, he would walk out with his own ability without fear.

Si Huaixi's eyes brightened slightly, and the sea-blue pupils were filled with light, and he said with a smile: "This is really unexpected, but I really want to take a look at Brother Pei when he was a student, he must be very dazzling."

Pei Zhaozhou's brows eased, and there was a little smile in his eyes, which slowly faded again.

"Because of the unpleasant memories I had at school, the school invited me to teach the mecha professional course of the Imperial Military Academy. I was not interested in this. In the end, I took a few classes and fell in love with a student..."

Pei Zhaozhou's eyes became dim: "The eldest son of the Claude family, Edie Claude, I thought he was a commoner at first, and only commoners are bullied by the nobles. I taught him some skills in driving mechas, and he He studied well, and after graduation he joined the regiment I commanded, but it was a pity that I sent him to a court-martial in the end."

Si Huaixi frowned slightly, and asked, "What did he do?"

Pei Zhaozhou's eyes were deep: "Serious dereliction of duty, the eldest prince Edward went to the planet Yell to give a diplomatic speech, because the planet is low and remote, and the original planet's guards were insufficient, so I mobilized part of the imperial army, and I sent Edie Crowder went with the rest of the soldiers."

"Originally, I didn't participate in the guard work of the royal family, but the lovely prince Edward heard about my achievements in the army and summoned me temporarily. However, I couldn't disobey the royal family's order, so I had to go to the planet Yell, but unexpectedly saw... ..."

"A group of unknown people entered the residence of the First Prince Edward, and the soldiers and guards guarding the west gate were killed and injured countless times, but Edie Crowder was safe and sound. His eyes were full of horror when he saw me coming."

"In the end, I resolved the crisis, and Edie Crowder was seriously injured by the gangsters and sent to the hospital because he took the initiative to rescue him. I escorted him to a military court, but he was acquitted in the end."

Pei Zhaozhou sneered: "It seems that he has been worried, afraid that I will find out the real purpose of the Claude family."

Si Huaixi frowned, and had a vague guess in his heart.

In the plot, when the protagonist meets the second prince, the eldest prince Edward has died unexpectedly. Is that really an accident?
