Astral Flower-Chapter 143: Questions
Long Qian Xing turned to look at Nan Hua and then asked, "Have you calmed down?"
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and nodded.
Talking with her father and then with Long Qian Xing for several light topics, it would be weird if she could still be tense right now. Even a normal person would calm down after some time.
"That’s good. They wanted to know about the things that happened before." Long Qian Xing pursed his lips. "It’s the standard procedure to ask because they need to figure out what happened to be able to catch the person who escaped."
Catch the person who escaped.
Nan Hua furrowed her delicate eyebrows. "I didn’t see her."
Her.
The keywords Nan Hua used could be used by them to know about the person who come.
"Can you tell me what happened in the dormitory?" Long Qian Xing asked, his voice was light and gentle as if he was coaxing a child. The arrogant and domineering attitude had long disappeared, what left was only the kind and patient young man.
He saw Nan Hua furrowing her eyebrows and could guess that this question might be a bit difficult for her to answer, so he changed his way of questioning.
"Did you wake up suddenly?"
"Yes. I heard loud noise and then woke up," Nan Hua replied.
Long Qian Xing nodded. "Then, what did you see when you wake up?"
"I was startled awake, but my vision is a bit blurry at first." Nan Hua looked like she was struggling to remember the content of things that happened before. "I remember seeing Feng Yu Hua and a stranger I don’t know. There’s a flash that looked like knife and the two of them are struggling, so I called the emergency number set in my light brain."
Just like normal phone, there was also the emergency call in the light brain.
After all, one of the uses of the light brain was for them to communicate with other people. The basic safety function also had to exist and Nan Hua’s emergency call has been set to her father for number one and the school for number two.
She clicked number 2 in that moment.
Long Qian Xing nodded.
At this point, Nan Hua’s story was consistent with what they had known. The alarm blare, startling the two people who were trying to get Feng Yu Hua. Perhaps, they would have never expected that their meticulous plan would fail because there was another person in the dormitory.
"What happened afterwards?"
"The person outside the door cursed. I remember she had female voice and then ran away," Nan Hua replied. "I’m not sure about the fight between Feng Yu Hua and that strange woman. I have no weapon and I don’t know what to do, so I moved step by step to the cabin room and locked the door."
Long Qian Xing finally couldn’t help himself and raised his hand to pat Nan Hua’s head. "It’s alright, you did very great."
...
<In the monitoring room right beside the interrogation room>
"I’m going to chop this brat’s hand." Nan Hai Yan’s veins bulged when he saw Long Qian Xing held his daughter’s head. The inverse scale in his heart was completely tilted towards Nan Hua and seeing her being coaxed by another man, he wanted to kill Long Qian Xing so badly.
This damn man was as cunning as his father!
He only told the other party not to be polite so that Nan Hua could relax around him, not so that he could take advantage of this situation!
"Star General Nan, please wait, it’s not over yet." The soldier trembled when he saw Nan Hai Yan was ready to break into the room.
The room where Nan Hua stayed was not the usual resting room. Instead, it was the interrogation room that was commonly used for them to ask some students questions and for interrogation training. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
The window in this room was connected to the monitoring room and it was one-way window.
They could see her, but from her side, she could only see the mirror that reflected her reflection.
No matter how much Nan Hai Yan wanted to take Nan Hua back to rest and forget all of these, he knew that it was important for Nan Hua to answer some questions. This way, they would be able to piece together the pieces of truth.
If her story matched with Feng Yu Hua, it meant that Feng Yu Hua was telling the truth.
If it was not a match, then they would have to question Feng Yu Hua again.
Perhaps it was the prejudice in their heart but based on the situation where Feng Yu Hua was the target, they would be more keen on thinking that Feng Yu Hua might have hidden something.
So they wanted to ask Nan Hua for her side of story.
Though, it was not much.
She was technically within the cabin all the time and from that position, it was impossible for her to be able to know what happened outside.
"Hmph! Lend me the phone! I need to call Old Long." Nan Hai Yan felt that the raging fire in his heart couldn’t be extinguished. Since that was the case, he would drag his old friend and scolded the other party.
"...Star General Nan, Star General Long is doing a mission outside."
Nan Hai Yan’s movement paused. He wanted to scold someone, but he couldn’t possibly scold Long Qian Xing’s grandfather. That man’s seniority was still above him, so Nan Hai Yan’s face darkened.
"How about Long Qian Xing’s older brother?"
"...Major Long Qian Xun is on duty in another planet and it should also be night time in that place."
Nan Hai Yan: "..."
In that case, when Long Qian Xing finished, he would invite this damn brat out!
The soldier trembled when he saw Nan Hai Yan’s expression worsened. He silently wanted to cry so badly when he saw this scene.
Hopefully, this general can calm down soon.
