After Lu Qiao paused, the smile was still on her face, even brighter.

"So? You want this thing," he glanced at the silver ring in Reith's hand, frowning slightly, "claw it on my wrist?"

"It's the process."

Reith unconsciously lowered her voice, feeling a little embarrassed.

"If I remember correctly, the real process should be that the investigation order is served in writing one week in advance, and I have enough time to contact the lawyer," he raised the gift box in his hand, "but now, I just After breakfast, I plan to visit you as scheduled."

His tone was calm, but his eyes were sharp.

Lance had just left for a day, and he had to contact Lance later.

"...It's an urgent order." For some reason, under Lu Qiao's gaze, the young officer, who had no fear in the face of nobles in the past, stammered instead, "Look."

Rui Si turned on the optical computer, and a brand new electronic document was displayed in front of him.

Immediately above the document is the official seal of the military.

He glanced at it, and before he had time to read the text clearly, Reith had already put away the document, but the signature of the military minister below was impressively visible.

"This is not an arrest warrant." He took a deep breath, loosened his hand holding the gift box, and a puff of fine dust was stirred up on the ground, "Sir, you can't directly use coercive measures against me."

"Of course, this... is just a routine, just in case..." In case the subject of the investigation refuses to cooperate, he has to be tougher.

It was clearly a normal process engraved in black and white on military documents, but Reith spoke intermittently.

I can't tell if it's a guilty conscience or just can't bear it.

"I need to contact my family and my lawyer."

Lu Qiao spread her hands: "And I don't have a weapon in my hand, the patrol behind you can put down the laser tube."

Not far behind Ruisi, several small and medium aircraft were following, with some silver lights shining faintly on the aircraft.

He knew that this was usually a laser weapon equipped to prevent prisoners from taking violent countermeasures.

At this moment, those few cold nozzles were aimed directly at him.

The feeling of being peeped and stared at was too vivid, and at that moment, a kind of spike rooted in memory suddenly rose from the ground.

He quietly took a breath.

As the Omega of the Percy family, his security was a top priority.The moment the army's aircraft was aimed at him, the sights hidden in the yard were all aimed at the officer in front of him in the opposite direction.

But what few people know is that Lu Qiao wears some close-fitting gadgets, all of which are aggressive and lethal.

He twisted his fingers tightly, resisting the urge to shoot for a moment.

Ruisi only hesitated for a few seconds, and immediately raised his hand and made a few gestures.

The silver light on the aircraft quickly disappeared.

"Give me a quarter of an hour—you don't need to tell me, I know this is allowed by the law," Lu Qiao turned and walked into the house, "You can choose to stand outside the door and wait, or come in and sit, but I'm sorry, there is no tea for hospitality you."

With a straight figure, he walked out of the place where the winter sun was shining, and walked into the slightly dim lintel.

After sending the situation to Anthony and his personal lawyer, he thought about it and made a video call to Arthur.

"Good morning?" Arthur always sat behind his unchanging dark red desk.

"Not good," Lu Qiao said without even saying a word of honor, and his face was gloomy. "In 15 minutes, I will be taken to the military headquarters as a criminal."

"Lance and you have a complete falling out?" Arthur said calmly, with a little interest.

"Don't be silly," he said sharply, "you know Lance's gone, we're on good terms—tell me what you know?"

The civilian military department has always been the focus of the nobles' secret attention, especially the Seventh Star Army led by Lance, coupled with Lu Qiao's status, with Arthur's status, it is impossible not to know some news.

"It really has something to do with him," Arthur agreed, "You have been reported to be involved in smuggling. You have been in contact with overseas countries and leaked information at the same time, which has caused a lot of trouble for your dear husband."

"report?"

"Look at who you have offended recently—well, Omega who lost his love and alpha who lost all his wealth are indeed easy to lose their minds."

"Losing a loved one...something," Lu Qiao quickly realized, "He has never been loved. As for Bunia—"

It was useless to talk too much, he quickly stopped talking, and the hostility in his eyes disappeared immediately, like a flash in the pan.

"With them alone, what impact can they have on the military?"

"Are you confused?" Arthur shrugged. "Of course they are not important. The key is that the evidence they submitted is considered valid by the military."

Lu Qiao pursed her lips tightly.

This is impossible.

"I will negotiate with the military for you, do you need any other help?"

"..." He took a deep breath and sat on the sofa, "No, thank you."

Anthony's head flickered.

10 minutes left.

He closed his eyes, turned on the light screen, and began to check the news that came flying like snowflakes.

Even at such a juncture, he still sat upright, his fingers fluttering, anxious but not chaotic.From the outside, it was impossible to tell that he had just come face to face with an officer in handcuffs not long ago.

5 minutes.

The wind started to blow outside the door, and the vines outside the window swayed slightly.

1 minutes.

Rui Si counted to the last second, and the door in front of him opened in response.

Lu Qiao didn't speak, but followed Ruisi's previous actions and projected the light screen to him.

Here's what his well-trained lawyers found in a short time.

The Omega protection law and the code of nobility happened to take precedence over the decree of the local military department.

"As you can see, after 24 hours, I will cooperate with your investigation."

"You have no right to take me away within 24 hours."

Reith hesitated to speak.

"Oh, don't worry, I won't escape temporarily - I guarantee the reputation of the Percy family," Lu Qiao saw through Ruisi's mind, and said unceremoniously, "Of course, if you are worried, you can always stand Here, take me away until 24 hours have passed."

He didn't give Reith a chance to answer, and closed the door directly.

In the room, Lu Qiao turned off the lights and set all the windows to dark mode.

So the house fell into darkness.

The only brightness came from the light screen in front of Lu Qiao.

A string of data flows across the screen like a flood.

Inspection showed no signs of leakage.

He frowned.

The systems he used were all specially provided by the top manufacturers and research institutes in the entire empire. If there were any omissions in such tests, then they could all go bankrupt directly.

Should not be ah.

Lance...he turned to the other screen.

Lance didn't respond to him with a few words.

However, his detection system clearly showed that Lance's ship was sailing normally, and Lance's vital signs and biological characteristics were all normal.

Why not reply him?

Lu Qiao felt a slight palpitation, like the sudden dizziness when she first entered the gravity training room when she was a child.

It was dark in the house, only a little fluorescent light illuminated his eyebrows and eyes.

He subconsciously picked up the pillow beside him - without exception, Lance bought it for him, and the smell of absinthe still remained on the pillow.

The darkness itself was not pleasant, but it reminded him of his childhood.

He seeks subtle peace in this bizarre environment.

"Ding—lunch time."

The lively bell rang suddenly, the lights in the room were turned on, the windows were bright and clean, and the sunlight came in as promised.

The dining trolley was pushed over by a robot, and there were staple foods and a few plates of desserts on it.

"Didi—the master asks the little assistant to take good care of the master."

According to the set program, several hearts appeared on the screen on the top of the little robot.

This house has two owners.

Lu Qiao froze for a moment, and let go of the pillow.

He stayed for a while without canceling the program, and began to eat obediently.

Reith has been standing outside the door for a whole morning.

As a representative of the military department, he can of course return to the aircraft and use the machine probe to monitor whether there is any abnormality in Lu Qiao.

But I don't know what he was thinking, for several hours, he stood outside the door without moving.

Although today's weather is indeed a bit abnormal, the cold wind and low temperature are defeated by the blazing sun.

When Lu Qiao opened the door, what she saw was Ruisi's sweaty face.

At first glance, it looks a bit like Lance when he was standing in a military posture.

Lance was extremely strict with himself. Once he started to train himself, even if Lu Qiao played tricks and wrapped his whole body around him, he would not move.

So Lu Qiao especially likes to provoke him at this time.

But that was all when they were still studying. After they got married...Lance joined the military, and the training was so tiring. He didn't want to cause trouble for Lance.

"You can go back to the aircraft." Lu Qiao kindly reminded, and then greeted the people who came to the door one after another.

Reith was forced to sideways out of the way.

"Don't worry, this is my legal team, security team and medical team."

Lu Qiao said softly, "They came here to ensure my safety, and they won't act aggressively."

"We are going to do a medical examination for Mr. Lu, please step aside."

A female ba in a white coat took Lu Qiao's words and gave Ruisi a hard look.

"This is also our process," he smiled at Reith, as if feeling helpless, "Please understand."

Reith was silent.

He stood here until evening.

When the lights first came on, the door of the house was finally opened.

"You don't have to do this, they are not qualified to ask you to go over now!" A shrill female voice came from the porch.

"It's okay, this officer has worked harder than me. I don't want him to stand and wait all night." Reith recognized Lu Qiao's voice, which was as gentle as spring rain. "You have also worked hard for a while."

"You are so kind..."

Lu Qiao came out first and smiled softly at Rui Si.

The lawyer behind him immediately stepped forward and began citing scriptures in a long speech, asking to go to the military headquarters with Lu Qiao.

The doctor was next to Lu Qiao, watching the arrival of the military with a guarding attitude.

After a stalemate for a while, Ruisi seemed to have received a notice from the military department, but he let go.

Lu Qiao and Ruisi shared the same aircraft, with a long string of tails attached to their backs.

In the night sky, aircraft flew across the sky with the luminous badge of the Percy family.

It is much more dazzling than the few military aircraft in front.
