263: Chapter 146: Father’s Eldest Son 263: Chapter 146: Father’s Eldest Son Feder’s sudden appearance plunged the atmosphere at the scene into silence, and his words left everyone baffled.
How did this get involved with Fu Zongchen’s death?
Ren Cangsong snapped to attention and pressed, “Feder selling military arms?
Does Prince Feder have evidence?”
“Of course I do!” Feder produced a smart device, pinched to materialize a virtual screen, and casually expanded it into a surrounding four-sided split screen.
On each screen was a photo of munitions being shipped, including one most crucial photo that he enlarged.
It was sowhat blurry, but one could make out a large stack of unusual grey-white missiles at so base.
The other people in the photo were wearing combat suits with a fla emblem on them.
“t-c22 hypersonic missiles?” Ren Cangsong exclaid, “A year ago, an arms order from the Stannia Civilization included 125 t-c22s, which were hijacked by interstellar pirates en route.
After a lengthy investigation, there were no leads.”
“Later, during an attack by the Torch Organization, missile wreckage was found, and the Yitelan Civilization even questioned us about it.”
“That’s right.
After investigating, Fu Zongchen learned that the transport ship that was supposed to head to Stannia was empty from the start.
The munitions had already been sold off by Sun Jing’an in collusion with insiders to the Torch,” Feder said in a cold voice.
“This matter involved Star Creation Company.
Fu Zongchen secretly reported to my father, who issued him a secret order to investigate carefully.”
“But unexpectedly, just as he discovered so clues, Fu Zongchen was assassinated.”
Sanger’s expression shook slightly; there were such secrets that he hadn’t been inford about by the Prince on the way here.
Or was it…
Duke Bai Ye felt an indescribable weirdness in his heart—why did every troubleso matter involving Li Ming always end up with a reasonable explanation in the end?
Ren Cangsong’s expression was solemn, “There were indeed such secrets, it’s a pity about Fu Zongchen.”
But he then questioned, “However, why kill Sun Jing’an…”
“In fact, I had received relevant evidence a long ti ago, but shortly after arriving at Jingnan Star, I encountered the issue with Caroline, and the matter was delayed until now,” Feder finally turned to look at Li Ming, his residual anger seeming to have not faded, his face unsightly: “Later, Li Ming told Sun Jing’an had requested to co visit him.
”
“I then issued an order, seizing the opportunity to apprehend him, and if he resisted, he could be killed on the spot.”
“Prince Feder’s story is quite good,” Duke Bai Ye remarked coolly: “However, after all, he was a regional director of Star Creation Company.
By killing him on just one side of the story, isn’t that a bit too hasty?”
“Moreover, he ca with a gene inhibitor, which ant he had no strength to resist.
Why was it necessary to kill him?”
“Whether it was punishing a criminal or silencing him by murder, it is still unknown,” Duke Bai Ye hinted.
Ever since being scolded to his face by Feder last ti, his attitude towards Feder had cooled considerably.
“Bai Ye, what do you an by that?” Sanger imdiately chided: “You better make it clear, what does ‘silencing by murder’ an.”
Sanger knew that Fu Zongchen was trafficking in arms, with Prince Bai Jiang’s endorsent behind it.
If munitions had indeed ended up in the hands of the Torch Organization, then Prince Bai Jiang would definitely be looking to get rid of this trouble.
“Silencing by murder” was more likely.
Learning that munitions had fallen into the hands of Torch, to prevent Prince Bai Jiang’s reputation from being damaged, Feder preempted by eliminating Fu Zongchen and spinning him as an undercover agent.
Even if other evidence surfaced later, there would be explanations to be made.
Prince Feder had grown up…
he reflected internally.
Duke Bai Ye did not respond to Sanger but gave a sneering laugh looking towards Li Ming: “He tells you to do it and you just do it?
Star Creation Company couldn’t touch him, but can’t they touch you?”
Sanger quickly said: “We still have to question Star Creation Company why they would sell arms to the Torch Organization?
There might be more secrets within the local branch.”
Li Ming looked at him in surprise.
Why was this Yitelan person suddenly speaking for him?
The latter gave him a friendly smile; Sanger was convinced that Li Ming had completely submitted to Prince Feder.
Otherwise, it was impossible for him to have killed Sun Jing’an on behalf of Prince Feder.
He had been unsure about this matter and had asked Prince Feder multiple tis, but Prince Feder always had that constipated expression and never responded directly.
Wu Yanqing’s student, with a level 16 potential developnt, had now beco a man of the Prince.
If word got back to the royal family, it would probably stir up quite a commotion.
Ren Cangsong also vaguely felt sothing was off, but with Feder having stepped forward already, he could only say, “I will dispatch soone to investigate imdiately.”
He was decisive and left as soon as he finished speaking.
The scene was temporarily sealed off; Duke Bai Ye, failing to see the excitent he expected, left in dissatisfaction.
“Prince Feder, the Prince will be proud of you,” Sanger said reassuringly to Feder.
However, what he did not understand was why Feder’s face showed that familiar constipated expression again, as if he was uncomfortably holding sothing back.
“I understand, you go first, I have sothing to discuss with Li Ming,” he said nasally.
Sanger, with an “I understand” expression, turned back, patted Li Ming on the shoulder, and said, “The Prince won’t mistreat you.”
Feder’s face turned even darker.
After Sanger left, the two went to Li Ming’s room.
Feder, who had been holding back the whole way, was about to unleash, but Li Ming stopped him.
“Wait…” His brows furrowed, he walked straight to the wall, pried off a tal wall panel, and behind the concrete wall, a niche had been dug out at so unknown ti, containing a surveillance device.
“When?
Who put it?” Feder’s complexion changed.
