Outer space.
It was synonymous with savagery and violence.
In reality, no one could answer the question of how big the Cangyue Universe was. That was because everyone's understanding of the universe came from an ancient star map.
The star map drew the outline of the entire universe. There were a total of 12,329 star regions, like an oval cantaloupe.
According to the star map, the territories of the three alliances happened to be in the center of the universe, taking up 13 percent. The remaining 87 percent was called outer space, meaning outside of civilization.
For tens of thousands of years, explorers had gone to outer space, but none of them had reached the end of the universe.
The Luan Eagle Empire was only three days away from the border of the Nebula Alliance.
The people who ruled this star region were the natives, the Eagle Clan.
The Eagle Clan used eagles as their totem. The biggest celebration every year was the Eagle Festival. Tens of thousands of eagles were released into the sky, chasing deer on the ground. The eagles danced wildly, chasing after the deer for food. It was called the Luan Eagle Empire.
Eagle City, the palace.
Because it was close to the territories of the three alliances, there were many trades. The locals were deeply influenced by the Cangyue Civilization, so the cities of the Luan Eagle Empire were full of tall buildings and modern atmosphere.
The citizens of the empire used interstellar communication, drove hover cars, and the girls liked to dress up, while the boys worshipped martial arts and superpowers. They looked no different from the people of the Cangyue Empire.
The only difference was in the customs and laws.
The people of the Eagle Clan served the Eagle God, allowing human trafficking, duels, plundering, and a series of other barbaric acts that were unbelievable to the people of the inner space.
At this moment, the new king, Hai Dongying, who was 43 years old, was furious in the palace.
"It's not suicide! It can't be suicide! "
"In the eyes of the Eagle Clan, suicide is a cowardly act! My father is a hero, he would never end his life by suicide! "
"Someone must have killed my father! It could be the Bear Clan, or it could be those damn pirates! "
"Go and find the murderer. As long as you find him, I will allow you to mine in my territory. Isn't that what you want?!"
Hai Dongying's face was livid as he shouted at the people of the Cangyue Empire in uniform.
After learning that the old king of the Luan Eagle Empire had passed away, the Sacred Alliance and the Republic Alliance immediately rushed over.
The Sacred Alliance's Special Task Force wore bright red uniforms, the Republic Alliance wore white, and the Nebula Alliance's uniform was dark blue.
Red, white, and blue were the main colors of Cang Yue. The war that would break out every few hundred years was also called the Tricolor War by the commoners.
The mining industry was the foundation of the three great alliances, and the Outer Realms, which was rich in minerals, had always been the battleground of the three great alliances.
The Chaotic Eagle Empire was quite close to the Inner Region, so it was convenient for shipping and had a high level of civilization. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a strategic location.
The Holy Alliance and the Republic Alliance had each sent their famous gold-medal investigation teams.
The kind-looking fatty in the red uniform was called Wu Zhuo.
Opposite him was a skinny man in a white uniform with a bitter expression. His name was Lang Yonghe.
Wu Zhuo smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to help. It's just that we can't."
"No matter how you look at it, your father committed suicide."
"I heard from the servants in the palace that your father has been emotionally unstable recently. He locked himself in his room every day and seemed to be in a constant state of anxiety. He would beat and scold the servants for no reason and pushed all the affairs of the empire to his subordinates."
"It's very likely that he had mental problems. According to the investigation at the scene, your father locked himself in his room on the night of the incident and didn't even eat dinner. The guards and servants were very worried and were stationed outside the room the whole night, but they didn't find any signs of anyone sneaking in."
"With such tight protection, it's impossible for someone to sneak into the palace and poison your father."
"Moreover, the old emperor left a suicide note before he took the poison. According to the notes, it was indeed written by your father. All the fingerprints and DNA information at the scene of the crime were either your father's or the people around him."
"In short, based on the information, it's enough to conclude that your father committed suicide."
"Life is full of sorrow and joy. Your Majesty, please restrain your grief."
Wu Zhuo was smooth and good with words. Lang Yonghe, who was standing opposite him, had to nod in agreement with Wu Zhuo's judgment. After the investigation by the two great Special Task Forces, they all agreed that the old emperor had committed suicide.
"I don't believe it. I don't believe it. I just don't believe it!" Hai Dongying waved his hand and shouted angrily, "As long as the murderer is caught, I'll open up all the mining rights in my territory! I'll give you more wealth than you'll ever be able to enjoy in your lifetime! Go and find the murderer for me! "
Wu Zhuo and Lang Yonghe both shook their heads. Who wouldn't want mining rights? Who wouldn't like money? But the problem was that there was no way to fulfill Hai Dongying's request. They couldn't just find a few scapegoats and beat them into confessing.
At that moment, the guard beside Hai Dongying suddenly whispered something in his ear.
After hearing that, Hai Dongying was slightly stunned and said loudly, "The investigators from the Nebula Special Task Force are here? Invite them in! "
A loud and clear voice came from the end of the palace. "Welcome the guests from the Nebula Special Task Force's Logistics Department!"
Hearing that, the people from the Sacred Force, the Republican Force, and the two great Special Task Forces were all stunned.
Logistics Department?
Was there no one else in the Nebula Alliance? Why did they send the Logistics Department here?
Even Hai Dongying was surprised. He only heard that the people from the Nebula Alliance had arrived, but he didn't know that it was the Logistics Department. He was not stupid at all. He knew what role the Logistics Department played in the three great Special Task Forces.
With Xia Fan in the lead, the three teams from the Logistics Department, the Combat Department, the Technology Department, the Intelligence Department, and the Investigation Department each had a team. There were a total of 14 investigators. They entered the palace and greeted Hai Dongying as usual.
After the greeting, Hai Dongying didn't wait for Xia Fan to introduce himself and quickly asked, "Have you seen the information I sent you at the scene?"
Xia Fan knew that Hai Dongying had just lost his father and the entire empire was in mourning. So he didn't laugh and answered seriously, "I've seen it all."
"What does the Nebula Special Task Force think?"
Xia Fan frowned slightly. "From the video and image records, it's somewhat suspicious. But after all, it's only image data. We need to go to the crime scene to make a final conclusion."
Hai Dongying was overjoyed. Although he knew that the Logistics Department was not reliable, he was pleasantly surprised that someone from the three great Special Task Forces had finally come forward and suspected that his father might have been murdered.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the crime scene now. I'm coming too!" Hai Dongying stood up excitedly.
The old fox Wu Zhuo said nothing, but the old-fashioned Lang Yonghe frowned and said, "A bunch of people in the Logistics Department. How can anyone believe what they say? Can you guys do it?"
His voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the palace heard him in the silence.
Xia Fan stopped and looked at Lang Yonghe.
Xia Fan sniffled and said, "It's rare to see a soldier transferred to the Special Task Force."
Lang Yonghe was stunned. "How did you know I was a soldier?"
Xia Fan smiled and said quickly, "From the way you stand and the hostile look in your eyes, it's not hard to see that you've undergone strict military training. Although you're standing straight, your left shoulder is 0.3 centimeters lower than your right shoulder. You must have been injured on your left shoulder. Your pelvis is slightly tilted forward. Hmm, it's caused by a bullet without a casing. It injured the main trunk nerve, so your pelvis is tilted forward."
"But the reason you retired from the military wasn't because of the injury. After all, there are many civilian jobs in the military. The reason you were forced to retire was because you were having sex. This is something the military will never tolerate."
"Last night, you were with the blonde lady behind you. I can still smell her body odor and perfume on you. What a night of sex. You even took three 100 milligrams of aphrodisiac. As expected of a superpower user. Most people only need 25 milligrams of aphrodisiac, but you took 12 times the normal amount in one go."
"I just pity the blonde lady. She must have felt sore in her lower body when she woke up this morning. Look, when she stood, she purposely spread her legs apart and switched the weight between her left and right legs. It's because you two had too much fun last night that her core strength is not enough. Although she has heavy makeup on, the dark circles under her eyes can't be hidden."
"The pink pearl bracelet on your wrist is worth a lot of money. You gave it to her, right? That means you're quite rich. Unfortunately, she was wrong about you. Judging by your age, you've been married for less than 15 years. However, the wedding ring on your hand is badly worn. It's not scratches from fighting, but from taking off the ring so often that there are fine wrinkles. "
"The blonde lady knows you're married. That's why you keep taking off the ring. It's definitely not for her. It's for a stranger, a young girl you've hooked in a bar or a nightclub. That's why you took off the ring."
"As the saying goes, the more serious you look on the surface, the more you're a thief and a whore. I didn't expect the top investigator of the Republic Alliance to be an expert at flirting with women. It's hard to tell from your face."
"What do you think? I'm right, right? "
Xia Fan spoke quickly. The palace was silent. Most people were still immersed in Xia Fan's analysis of Lang Yonghe.
As for Lang Yonghe, he felt like Xia Fan had stripped him naked in broad daylight.
He wanted to refute, but he found that the blonde female investigator who was having an affair with him was standing behind him. Her face was flushed red, and her legs were trembling. She looked like she was confessing without being pressed.
Xia Fan's colleagues were also shocked. They knew Xia Fan was powerful and highly regarded by the director, but they didn't expect him to be this powerful!
Just a glance at Lang Yonghe was enough to dig out his biggest secret and expose it in front of everyone!
Clap, clap, clap!
Wu Zhuo wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity. He clapped and walked to Lang Yonghe's side. With a smirk on his face, he said, "I didn't expect you to be so serious all the time, Lang. You're just faking it!"
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. With this joke, I won't feel lonely for the rest of my life."
The investigators from the Sacred Alliance in bright red uniforms laughed along with Wu Zhuo. Half of the investigators from the Republic Alliance in white were embarrassed, while the other half were secretly delighted.
Suddenly, Xia Fan frowned and said to the smirking Wu Zhuo, "Is it really that funny? Do you want me to analyze your situation as well? "
Xia Fan purposely sniffled.
Wu Zhuo's smile froze on his face, and his fat face turned pale.
However, he was a sly old fox after all. He immediately put on a serious face and pulled Xia Fan affectionately. "The Nebula Alliance has produced a young and promising gold-medal investigator!"
"Young man, didn't you want to see the crime scene? Come, I'll go with you. "
"Do you want to take a look at the information I have? It's okay. We're all here for the case. It's only right to share information. "
As the saying went, one should not hit a smiling face. Seeing Wu Zhuo change his attitude so quickly, Xia Fan gave up on the idea of giving him trouble.
"Then let's go."
