The meeting with Grandpa Xu was a pleasant one. Ye Chong did not expect to meet Grandpa Xu in such a way. The policeman who came later was Fei, the one who went to Grandpa Qian's shop looking for Ye Chong the other day. Fei saw the two finger marks on the middle-aged man's neck, and quickly pulled him away with an excuse. Gosh, who knows when this guy will go crazy? If he goes crazy on the street, I'll be in big trouble!
At Grandpa Xu's house, Sun Xuelin and Xiu were very reserved. On the other hand, Ye Chong and Grandpa Xu were chatting and laughing, occasionally discussing academic issues, which made Ye Chong feel like he was in Aurora.
However, once he left the house, Ye Chong returned to his usual indifference.
Cerule was a planet with advanced economy and technology, with 600 million permanent residents. The atmosphere here was open and free. Coupled with the unique natural environment, it attracted many residents to stay on the planet all year round.
The Jesha district where Ye Chong lived was the head of the three largest districts on Cerule, and also the most prosperous one on the planet.
Ye Chong returned to Grandpa Qian's house late. After finishing his work, Ye Chong went back to his room. He felt that it was necessary to learn more about this society, there were too many things here that did not fit in with him. Now, he needed to understand this society as soon as possible to survive here. Without a doubt, the teacher was Mu.
Ye Chong asked first, "Mu, let's continue from today's topic! What's with the law you mentioned today? "
Mu replied, "According to the data, it's obvious that it's easier for you to understand the law set by the strong!"
Ye Chong asked, "Strong? Stronger than me? "
Mu's tone was flat, but the disdain in his words was unmistakable. "According to the data, the difference in strength between you two is absolutely incomparable!"
Ye Chong asked back, "If you killed that person today, what will happen to me?"
Mu replied, "According to the 11th article of Cerule's law, the murderer will be sentenced to more than 40 years in prison, and the most serious cases will be sentenced to death!"
Ye Chong frowned. "Who's the executor?"
"According to the security regulations of Planet Aquamarine, all police, military, and security departments have the right to arrest, and all citizens have the duty to assist in the arrest!"
Fortunately, Ye Chong knew his place, and was not arrogant enough to think that he was the best in the world. With so many people here, he would not be able to resist even a normal person, much less an expert. Ye Chong began to understand the power of violence! However, Ye Chong quickly realized the crux of the problem. "What if I do it discreetly?"
"According to the information, if they don't have any evidence of you killing someone, they won't be able to convict you."
"Evidence?"
"An object, person, or other thing that can prove your crime!"
"In other words, if my methods are brilliant enough and they can't get any evidence, then I can escape from this law?"
"In a sense, what you said is correct, but I have to remind you that they have quite a lot of practical and brilliant methods, and there is a considerable chance that they will find out about your activities."
"Oh, so it's actually a contest between the two?"
"In a sense, what you said is correct …"
…
Ji Shangyan hummed a little tune happily, the expensive mech flying nimbly under his control. Ji Shangyan's name sounded like a girl's name, but he was a man through and through. However, his androgynous face was often misunderstood. His silver-white hair and blue irises made him look rather devilish, and the faint smile on his lips captivated many women.
Ji Shangyan's mech was a bluish-gray, with a few key parts in gold. The body was smooth, and the deep blue color was reserved but not showy. The gray mechanical legs gave the mech a sense of heaviness. The slightly protruding chest of the mech was obviously thickened with armor, giving the mech a steady and unimpetuous feeling.
Ji Shangyan's mech piloting skills were excellent, and he weaved nimbly between the buildings in Jesha District.
If he could succeed in visiting Old Man Xu this time, then he would also have made a great contribution. However, Old Xu seemed to be a little stubborn! This was really making things difficult for him. Ji Shangyan rubbed his forehead in distress. He could not come up with a good idea at the moment. His elder brother had been snubbed the last time, and now he was throwing this problem to him. No matter what, he had to find a way to appease Old Xu. If the first time did not work, he would try a few more times.
Old Xu was alone at home. His wife had passed away two years ago, and they had no children. Now, he was left alone, and he could not help but sigh at the empty house every day. It seemed that only by immersing himself in research could he feel better. He did not expect that it was because of this that he had achieved great breakthroughs in his field over the years, and became famous. However, he was old now, and many of the ideas he had when he was young had faded!
Suddenly, the photon processor notified him that he had a visitor. Through the holographic image, Old Xu saw a handsome young man he had never seen before. He did not seem to know him, and Old Xu was suspicious!
Connecting to the home call, Old Xu asked, "Who are you looking for?" A device in front of the Xu house immediately projected Old Xu's image in front of Old Xu's door.
Ji Shangyan saw the image of an old man. According to the information he had, this should be the Old Xu he was visiting this time. Ji Shangyan said respectfully, "You must be Professor Xu. I'm Ji Shangyan. I've attended your lecture before, and would like to consult you on a few questions regarding mechs!"
"Oh …" Old Xu pondered for a moment. Every month, there would be people looking for him to discuss some academic questions, but most of them were middle-aged and above. It was the first time he had met someone as young as Old Xu.
"Ji Shangyan?" Old Xu suddenly remembered something, "Your surname is Ji?"
Ji Shangyan's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that this was bad, but he had to bite the bullet and replied, "Yes!"
"You're from the Ji family?" Old Xu's expression changed.
Ji Shangyan cursed in his heart, and kept quiet.
Old Xu snorted coldly, "Ji family? Don't even think about it. Don't waste your time, I will never work with the Ji family. You better give up on that idea! " With that, Old Xu ignored Ji Shangyan and shut off the home call with a snap. Old Xu's image disappeared before Ji Shangyan's eyes.
It seemed that his big brother had thoroughly offended Old Xu last time. The most troublesome thing was that Old Xu's hatred for his big brother had now escalated to his hatred for the Ji family. It would be even more difficult to persuade him to work with the Ji family!
After some thought, Ji Shangyan took out his comms device, connected it, and said to the person on the other end, "You guys have to keep an eye on everything about Old Xu. What he does every day, where he goes, who he meets, and the identity and residence of those people. Understand? Don't let your guard down! I want the most detailed information. Remember, the most detailed! "Ji Shangyan could not think of a better idea, so he could only send someone to keep an eye on him.
Turning off the comms, Ji Shangyan was troubled. What could he do to get Old Xu to agree?
