"Your Highness, these things have happened so many years ago. There is no need for me to lie to you. Of course, you cannot completely believe my words alone. However, I can swear to God that every word I said is true.
There is absolutely nothing false about it. Your hometown is Arsinore. That kind of thing has happened once before, and we cannot let what happened twenty years ago happen again."
Leng Ling said calmly, "Captain Fan Wu, I know your loyalty to Lanson. Arsinoe is the hometown of our Leng family. Of course I can't watch history repeat itself. I will investigate and put your information first."
Here, when the matter is investigated clearly and evidence of the man's crime can be found, I will punish him."
Fan Wu's voice was gloomy, "Your Highness, I understand."
"You go out first."
"yes."
Fan Wu bowed slightly and left immediately.
Leng Ling looked at the rows of text on the information. In black and white, they recorded in detail the list of people who participated in the research that year, as well as the status of the research and the results.
At the end of the attached document, there was the signature of the person in charge of the entire research. Although Leng Ling had never heard of that person's name, he clearly saw a familiar name on the authorization page of the research.
The black signature pen and the vigorous strokes were the name of Leng Ling's father.
Leng Ling looked at this name and her beautiful eyes quietly squinted.
That research was personally instructed by my father. My father, who had never advocated war, actually agreed to such research. Maybe he did this because he really had no other choice.
Fan Wu didn't lie. At least, there was indeed such a thing. After all, there was no way to forge his father's autograph.
But he had never heard his father mention this matter. Although he was not born at that time, his father would tell him anything about Lanson's past.
Perhaps, that research ended in failure and became an eternal comrade in his father's heart, so he deliberately forgot about it.
"Pata."
A photo dropped out of the profile, which immediately caught Leng Ling's attention.
The yellowed photo showed a group photo of the researchers. In an inconspicuous corner, a young man stood.
The delicate facial features, the calm smile, and that face were indeed Alan Salda, but they were a little different from now.
What happened to this man?
The information states that someone once died during the experiment, and that was when the experiment was terminated.
Perhaps, the failure of the research twenty years ago was related to this man. In addition to Fan Wu, we must find someone related to that war or experiment.
Since his father is the approver of this research, Leng Xiao might also know about it, but that man...
If you don't look for him, who else will?
Leng Ling frowned and fell into deep thought.
After groaning for a moment, he picked up the phone and pressed a few numbers.
The call was connected, Leng Ling took a deep breath and said, "I'm Leng Ling."
"Hello, Your Highness."
An old voice came from the other end of the phone. This person was Elder Laura.
"Elder Luo La, I'm sorry to disturb you. There is something I want to ask you."
The person on the other side of the receiver spoke in a gloomy tone, "Your Highness, please ask. As long as I know, I will answer truthfully."
"Do you still remember that Lanson conducted a biochemical experiment more than 20 years ago, and my father was in charge of that experiment?"
The person on the other end of the phone visibly took a breath and said, "Your Highness, I'm not sure about this matter. How did you know about it?"
His deep eyes darkened a bit, and Leng Ling said in a relaxed tone, "A few days ago, I happened to see this file when I was sorting out information. It had my father's signature on it. I never heard from my father.
I mentioned it before, so I wanted to ask you if you understand."
Elder Laura's voice was gloomy, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I just heard about it and was not involved. Therefore, I have no way to give you an answer."
Leng Ling said calmly, "I understand, thank you."
"Your Highness, you are too polite," Elder Luo La said in a modest tone, "How are you doing lately?"
"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern."
"Your Highness, Kessel is relying on you. I'm old and I can't go to the battlefield in person to fight against the enemy with you. This makes me very regretful."
Leng Ling comforted him softly, "Elder Luo La, as a member of the Leng family, this is my responsibility, and I must shoulder all of this. You also made outstanding contributions to Lanson when you were young. Now you should be enjoying your old age, but you are still
While you are working on the affairs of the country, I admire your loyalty and spirit to Lanson."
"Your Highness, you are serious. It is my honor to serve Lansen," Elder Luo La said slowly after a pause, "Your Highness, anything can happen on the battlefield. I only hope that you can take care of yourself.
Don’t be harmed by those people’s overt and covert attacks.”
The dark pupils lowered quietly, Leng Ling said in a low voice, "Thank you for your advice, I will do it."
Leng Ling hung up the phone and focused on the information again.
Elder Luo La obviously knew something, but he never said it. This shows that the matter involved a wide range.
If that were the case, we couldn't even ask others. If we wanted to investigate this man, we could only do it secretly.
On the other end, Laura hung up the phone and sighed quietly.
"Elder, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing," Laura's eyes dimmed, "Go and pour me a cup of coffee."
The other party was a little surprised, "Elder, you haven't drank coffee for a long time, why now..."
Laura waved her hand and said, "Go ahead and pour it."
"yes."
While the maid was making coffee, Laura opened a drawer at the bottom of the bookcase and took out a file bag at the bottom.
Opening the document bag, his emaciated fingers took out a few pieces of tissue paper.
The dusty documents had a dark yellow color and a vague musty smell.
Since that incident, this document has been sealed by Laura, until Leng Ling's call made him feel faintly uneasy.
Leng Ling must have known something, so he asked himself, maybe that incident more than twenty years ago should not have happened. Even if it would become a shame to the family, he should not have participated in those people
An act of murder committed to protect family honor.
After all, the young man was innocent. Although his hands were not stained with the young man's blood, Laura could always smell the faint smell of blood on his hands. This smell has been with him for twenty years.
Gazing at the lines of text on the document with cloudy eyes, Laura knew that some things could no longer be concealed. And that person must also know that he was involved in this matter.
Now, everyone else in that person's family, except him, is dead and in despair, but this person has been able to climb to his current position step by step, without a strong style of conduct and deep scheming.
Not available.
Leaning weakly on the armchair, Laura slowly closed her eyes.
What is supposed to come will always come. If he wants to come to you, then let him come. As long as he can make up for the mistakes he made back then, he can agree to any conditions.
**********
One evening a few days later, Leng Ling sat alone on the sofa by the fireplace, closing her eyes and taking a nap.
Outside the window, the cold wind is biting, but inside the house is always warm as spring.
In the past few days, Cossel's side has not rekindled the war. Perhaps it is because the previous counterattacks have dealt a heavy blow to Valencia, coupled with the coming of winter and the increasing anti-war momentum in Valencia, Karl
There is no time to draw out elite troops to invade Lansen again.
But Leng Ling knew that as long as the domestic anti-war momentum was suppressed, Karl would launch another attack.
If we can form an alliance with the other party's anti-war faction, there's no telling if we really have a chance of winning, but...
The smooth forehead frowned slightly, Leng Ling was in trouble again.
He didn't know Valencia at all, and the only person he had contact with was not on his side, and he had given up everything there. It was simply impossible to form an alliance.
In this case, I can only think of other ways.
Just when Leng Ling was at a loss what to do, familiar footsteps sounded outside the door.
"who?"
Black eyes glanced out the door alertly, and the next moment, the closed door was pushed open.
With a tall golden figure, a steady pace, and an uninhibited smile on his handsome face, Rean Hans appeared in front of Leng Ling.
"Why are you sleeping here? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"
"Why are you here? The wound is not healed yet, so don't run around."
Leng Ling adjusted her sitting posture, with undisguised concern in her tone.
Li En sat next to him and smiled lightly, "Dear His Highness Leng Ling, are you concerned about me?"
Leng Ling's thin lips curled up slightly, "This is natural."
"Now that the matter of the letter has been resolved, I think those people must hate you and me to the core, right?"
Leng Ling's voice was cold, "Let them hate you, I want to see what other tricks they can use."
The golden eyes sank slightly, "That night, Roy tried to enter your car with a cup of black tea, but I stopped him outside. I saw his expression was a little strange, so I didn't let him in. You drank the cup
Tea, do you feel any discomfort?"
Leng Ling supported his chin with one hand and recalled carefully, "I slept very deeply that night, and the next day, the letter was gone." His eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at Lien, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?
"
"At that time, I didn't think so much. However, I thought about it for a long time these days, and decided to tell you about this matter. That Roy was already hostile to me. As long as it was something that was not good for me, he would express it.
It has to be very exciting, just like this matter, we have to find a way to find out who is behind him."
