It was as if such a criminal record had just appeared out of thin air, and it was purely to make people believe that such a person had really existed before!
Even though Captain Cao had climbed to his current position and his information was not disclosed to most people, there were still many people in the Shi family headquarters who had the authority to investigate his 18 generations of ancestors. However, he could not find out the identity of a person of humble birth.
At that moment, Captain Cao was actually suspicious. Did this person really exist?
If he didn’t really exist, who was the one who made this fake information for him?
If he really existed, then who was he? What was the secret behind his true identity? Did it involve some of the Empire’s core secrets, so he couldn’t inquire about it with his current status?
Song qingxiao didn’t expect to hear such a piece of news from Captain Cao. She frowned, and Captain Cao continued,”
“I’m thinking, could your father be someone from a hidden clan?”
Only a reclusive family like the Shi family would be able to disguise their information flawlessly. In this era of electronic information, they could completely hide a person without anyone knowing.
I’ve checked. You were on the patrol list that day, but for ‘certain’ reasons, you were not on duty. Captain Cao looked at the serious-looking song qingxiao. I’m guessing that you were there when an Ji was in trouble. You might have run into some trouble that you can’t disclose to the public.
That was why Captain an forged an identity for her and arranged for her to be in the reserve team.
The Shi family had dealt with this problem after the incident, so it was unknown if it had anything to do with song qingxiao or her mysterious father.
However, Captain Cao speculated that her initial purpose of joining the team was to temporarily avoid certain people and things.
He roughly guessed the reason why song qingxiao had joined the team, and then said,”
I don’t care why you joined the team. As long as you don’t endanger the safety of the reserve team and the Empire, I can’t be bothered to care about these trivial matters of the underworld clans. He stretched his back and looked at the silver Wolf with an unfriendly look. He wanted to touch it, but he remembered song qingxiao’s warning that the silver Wolf didn’t have ‘restraint’, so he forced himself to stop. He put his hands on his waist and said,
you can stay in the reserve team if you want to. I can cover for you. But I don’t keep idle people in my team. You have to at least give me some guidance to Liu Xiao and the others and accompany them to the imperial capital until the end of their examination. There was a cunning look in his eyes, after this, I won’t care if you want to stay or leave. What do you think?”
His suggestion made song Qing think of something. She decided to suppress the news of her father for the time being. Captain an had already retired from the private guard. Although he had forged an identity for her, once they suspected Captain an, if someone investigated, there would be many loopholes and it would arouse suspicion.
On the contrary, now that Captain Cao was willing to help her, she could stay in the reserve team for a while. Even if it was a year or so, as long as she had time to enter the Dan stage, no matter how much trouble she would be in, she would at least have some ability to protect herself.
However, she did not agree immediately. Instead, she asked cautiously,”
didn’t Liu Xiao say that most of this year’s exams would be recorded because of the war?”
“Yes, I am.” Captain Cao nodded and took two steps forward, although the outbreak of war has increased the admission rate of private guards, at the same time, it is easy to cause a mixture of good and bad members, and the death rate in the war will also rise.
Especially when these people were likely to face fierce and extraordinary demon beasts, it was even more dangerous.
Although almost all the participants of the entrance examination for the private guards were allowed to enter, the private guards were also divided into ranks according to their strength.
Those who performed well and had outstanding talents could become the core combat power of the royal family in the future. The royal family was not willing to send them to their deaths. Compared to ordinary members, they had a better chance of survival.
Cao Zeng understood this, and so did the other members of the reserve team. This competition might not be held in the open, but in the dark!
“I heard …” At this point, Cao Zeng stopped again and tapped the ground with the tip of his foot several times, showing his anxiety.
this time’s examination might not be peaceful. Many people have entered the imperial capital one after another. They might be people from reclusive families, but I don’t know what their purpose is.
Therefore, Cao Zeng made such a request not only because he wanted song Qing to give Liu Xiao and the others some advice, but more importantly, he hoped that she could accompany Liu Xiao and the others in such an uncertain situation, just in case.
Song qingxiao was silent for a moment. It had not been long since she last barged into the Imperial City. This time, the chaos in the Shi family and the sea of stars was likely to be caused by her. This trip to the imperial capital might not be an easy one.
Her neck began to hurt again. The horror of being assassinated on that rainy night still remained in her heart.
The person who tried to assassinate her was most likely from a reclusive family. As Cao Zeng had said, if all the reclusive family members appeared in this examination, she might be able to find some clues about the person who tried to assassinate her that day.
Under Cao Zeng’s expectant gaze, song qingxiao did not agree immediately. Instead, she said that she needed a few days to think about it.
Although Cao Zeng was a little disappointed by her rejection, she did not make a final stand, so he was relieved.
Not to mention that this exam was far more complicated than he had told song Qing. There were still more than 20 days before Liu Xiao and the others ‘exams, so song Qing could still consider for a few more days.
Therefore, Captain Cao quickly nodded and put the matter aside.
Cao Shan might have already gathered all the members. Let’s go and fight! After he no longer mentioned these vexing things, he quickly returned to his usual temperament. When the two men and one wolf came to the training room, it was just as Captain Cao had said. The No.. 3 training room, which was the size of a small basketball court, was surrounded by people on both sides!
