#420 - Suspect No. 2 - Qian Xun
Klein stated very firmly that he really wasn't targeting Nesserio. He hadn't even met him.
But from these trivial clues, all the evidence pointed to Nesserio and Grandok, which was why Klein was so sure.
When there are enough coincidences, then the matter becomes inevitable.
Qian Yu nodded. She wasn't surprised by Klein's statement, and she also believed that Nesserio was indeed a problematic person, but her real concern wasn't that.
"Then, how likely do you think it is that my sister, Qian Xun, betrayed us? Have you also suspected her?"
Klein didn't speak. He had suspected the Third Princess from the very beginning. You could tell from the fact that he asked Qian Yu about the Third Princess's age back then, except that the Third Princess, Qian Xun, was only seven years old at the time.
Seven years old. Betraying Tairerra, betraying the Empress, and participating in a major Grandok plan? Was that possible? Klein wasn't sure.
Seeing Klein's hesitation, Qian Yu emphasized again:
"Tell me the truth, without holding anything back."
"I have suspected her. Her role in this matter is just too strange. From her actively asking for the Evil Moon Wolf to her actively adopting it, the whole process is very strange.
However, considering that she was only seven years old at the time, it was really impossible for a seven-year-old child to participate in such a complex plan, so I didn't think too much about it.
But I always felt that she seemed to have no reason or motive to do so. She is a princess, the Empress's offspring. It really doesn't make sense for her to do such a thing.
If you want me to stand from a third-party perspective, the possibility that your sister, Her Highness the Third Princess, has a problem is three to seven. The possibility of her betrayal is about 30%."
Since Qian Yu asked, Klein would naturally tell the truth, because the Third Princess's problem wasn't just a simple sisterly relationship issue, but could also involve the safety of the entire Tairerra.
It sounded incredible for a country's princess to betray her own country, but in fact, in Klein's previous life, such things were common in ancient history. He was quite used to it.
Qian Yu didn't directly answer Klein's question, but instead said something else.
"More than three years ago, I once enrolled in the Royal Academy. In two months, I quickly learned some knowledge, including that of various clubs and the academy itself.
But during that time, something happened that caused a sensation throughout Tairerra. I think you should have heard of it."
Something that caused a sensation throughout Tairerra? Klein thought for a moment.
"Something that happened to you that caused a sensation throughout Tairerra. Are you talking about the assassination attempt?"
Klein immediately realized that Qian Yu was talking about the shocking Second Princess assassination case. The most outstanding heir of a country was assassinated in the Royal Academy.
Although the Royal Academy had become very corrupt in recent years, the three major clubs were, after all, extensions of the Royal Academy, and their strength was still guaranteed.
If it were an ordinary person, like Klein when he first entered the academy, being assassinated, it could be said that spies from the two countries were infiltrating each other, but for a princess to be assassinated, and especially the Second Princess, it didn't quite make sense.
Under the noses of the Jay Society, the Mithril Society, and the Steel Society, carrying out such an assassination required not only sufficient strength but also the ability to hide it.
The problem was that normally, a fourth or fifth-tier expert would easily be discovered, let alone a super-tier expert. The imperial capital had the Dark Crusader Intelligence Department, the three major clubs, and the Royal Academy itself.
Experts from enemy countries couldn't hide at all. The Skull Society had to go 7,000 nai chi underground to hide a fifth-tier Seth.
So how did those assassins hide at the time? That was something worth pondering.
Qian Yu nodded and told Klein the specific situation at the time.
"When I was studying at the Royal Academy, the address I publicly declared was just a false address. The real location was in a magic tower inside the Royal Academy.
Very few people knew my real location, and even if they did, they were trustworthy people. But there was an interlude, which was that Qian Xun came to see me once."
"Her Highness the Third Princess came to see you?" Klein was slightly surprised. This was a very important piece of information.
"Yes, she came once. We have a very good relationship, and since I was going to the Northern Territory after completing my studies at the Royal Academy, I didn't feel there was anything wrong with her coming to see me.
But the assassination happened a week after she came to see me. They didn't use super-tier experts because they would be discovered immediately. They used fifth-tier professionals.
A total of four fifth-tier experts came silently to the outside of my residence and suddenly attacked, entangling my guards.
At the time, I was only first-tier and had to face a fifth-tier expert alone. If my Flame Will hadn't fully erupted, I probably would have died there.
The location was accurate, and the dispatched force was just right. Without complete intelligence, how could they have carried out such a precise operation?
I've always wondered where those four fifth-tier professionals were hiding, but now that I think about it, there seems to be no safer place than hiding with Tairerra's Third Princess.
How about it? Now that I've said all this, how suspicious do you think Qian Xun is now?"
Qian Yu's expression was very calm, as if she was talking about something completely unrelated to herself, but Klein could already feel the slightly trembling eyelashes and the killing intent in her eyes.
Klein wanted to comfort Qian Yu, but after thinking about it, it didn't seem necessary to comfort her in this kind of situation. This was an internal dispute within the royal family, and it might even be related to the future inheritance of the throne.
"Do you really think all of this is related to Her Highness the Third Princess?"
"Eldest Sister loves to play. She is not a candidate to inherit the throne, and my abilities are relatively outstanding. I am also willing to become the new Empress, so the entire empire has been training me as Tairerra's future heir.
We have always ignored Qian Xun's feelings. She is a very taciturn person, and she only says a few more words in front of me and Eldest Sister.
She has been sensible since she was a child, sensible in a way that is not like a child, which is already something worth suspecting.
But she has always hidden her inner self, and no one knows what she is really thinking in her heart, nor does anyone know what she is pursuing."
Klein took Qian Yu's hand, trying to soothe her emotional fluctuations as much as possible.
"You think it's the throne?"
Qian Yu shook her head.
"I don't know, but I think my existence should be blocking her path forward!"
"What are you going to do?"
Qian Yu suddenly put away her emotional fluctuations and returned to her strong businesswoman stance.
"Do you want to meet my sister and, by the way, take a look at that Evil Moon Wolf, the Dog God - Bai Yan Ke Si in your words?"
