The maid did not come in, but knocked on the door and called. However, when she called three times and received no answer, she left on her own.

At this time, Meng Qingxiao was sitting quietly on Botong's armchair. The chair was very big. He looked like a child when he sat on it. Of course, he was always invisible, so we can only imagine that he looked like a child. .

When the maid left, he was just about to examine the chair carefully when he heard a strange noise, just like the sound of the locals performing arcane magic. He quickly looked up and discovered a scene that surprised him.

On the wall cabinet where he had been frantically moving items, a huge circular light door suddenly appeared. The light door blocked most of the wall cabinet behind it. A fat figure stepped out of the light door with his head lowered. , it is Broadcom who left before.

Only now did Meng Qingxiao understand why he frantically moved the things on the cabinet without opening the secret room door, because Botong didn't have any secret room at all, he just left through the portal.

But how is this portal opened?

Boji does not have this ability at all. Either it is still a mechanism, or someone opened it remotely for him.

Meng Qingxiao quietly got down from the large armchair. He was afraid that the other party would sit him to death.

After Botong came out of the portal, the portal did not disappear. Soon another person came out of it. When his face was completely revealed in front of Meng Qingxiao, Meng Qingxiao's breath was suffocated. Although this person he He had never met him, but he knew him. It was Tanna's second brother Boao.

Aren't these two people vying for the throne?

In an instant, countless questions emerged in Meng Qingxiao's heart.

Meng Qingxiao began to believe Xiao Dai's analysis. Xiao Dai suspected from the beginning that the real power in the city was Bo Han, and Bo Tong was not a puppet.

Bo Xi was originally Bo Han's subordinate, but after he was promoted, he followed Bo Han wholeheartedly, as if he had forgotten that his original master was Bo Han.

But now, Meng Qingxiao had to start to doubt that Bo Xi was actually sent by Bo Han to monitor Bo Tong. Otherwise, why would Bo Xi come here so frequently?

As for why Botong invited Boao to the city, Meng Qingxiao's guess was that Botong was unwilling to be controlled by Bohan, so he simply stopped competing for the throne and invited his nephew to the city. After all, the two were blood relatives, better than Bohan. The outsider still needs to be a lot closer.

Sure enough, Meng Qingxiao soon discovered that he had guessed correctly.

Boao saluted Botong: "I really want to thank Uncle Wu this time."

"Hey, nephew, what are you talking about? I supported your father back then, and now I support you. This is natural. How can an outsider steal our family's foundation?"

Boao was about to walk out when he was stopped by Botong.

"Wait a moment. I'll go outside and take a look for you. Bosie often comes to my place. Maybe he's here again."

Meng Qingxiao hid in the room, thinking: "Damn fat man, you are right."

Meng Qingxiao's armor has many cameras. He had not turned on recording before, so he suffered a big loss when he was wrongfully accused of being a murderer. Later, he learned to be good and turn on recording mode no matter what he did.

At this moment, he recorded this historic scene. Two guys who were supposed to be enemies actually appeared together. He wanted to share it with Tanna. At the same time, he also realized that the murderer of the king was probably not Botong, but Bohan.

Meng Qingxiao was doing self-examination in his mind. When Xiao Dai proposed his conjecture, how did he exclude Bohan?

He remembered that it was because Bohan had been outside the city and there were countless troops around him, so he did not launch an investigation into him.

Meng Qingxiao did not alert the snake. He followed in Botong's footsteps and left Botong's bedroom. At the same time, he quietly hid the mosquitoes originally hidden in Botong's bedroom on Boao. At this moment, he wanted to add another surveillance target. He wanted to know Boao. every word and deed.

While still on the road, Meng Qingxiao contacted Tanna using the walkie-talkie.

"Call Tanna, can you hear me?"

"I can hear you. Please wait a moment. I will contact you shortly."

Meng Qingxiao did not reply. He knew that Tanna was probably inconvenienced. Sure enough, after two or three minutes, Tanna's voice came again.

"Hey, hey, alien, can you hear me?"

Meng Qingxiao was speechless for a while. He knew that he was considered an alien here, but he still felt uncomfortable being called an alien directly.

"I can hear it." He still endured his discomfort and replied.

"What do you want from me, alien?"

"I just saw your second brother."

"Are you out of the city?" Tanna asked in surprise, "Have you started investigating my brother now? I don't think he has the chance to kill my father."

"No, I haven't left the city. The situation is a bit complicated. I think it's best for us to talk face to face."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at home. Come to my place."

Meng Qingxiao's footsteps paused. He originally wanted to invite the princess to the king's study for a reunion, but she was the one who stopped him first. Now she invited him to her home for a reunion instead.

He is a person who is used to being a leader and likes to let others come to him, so he is a little uncomfortable at the moment, but he quickly realizes that now the leader is the other party, and they are the princess, and he is nothing, so he quickly He adjusted himself and agreed, "Okay, I'll be right back."

Meng Qingxiao transformed into Janiya again and deliberately found Princess Tanna's home from the underground floor. The reason why he added the word "specially" was because he could not find it through other ways.

After being notified, Meng Qingxiao arrived at Princess Tanna's home. Princess Tanna did not come out to greet him, which made him a little disappointed. He realized that he might really be nothing in the eyes of the other party.

I don't know if this is a common problem among men. Meng Qingxiao actually has no feelings for Princess Tanna, but it is still difficult for him to accept that he has no charm in the eyes of her.

Still in Princess Tanna's study, Tanna saw Meng Qingxiao come in. She didn't even get up. She said hello: "Here you are. You just said you saw my second brother. Where did you meet him?" ?”

"At your fifth uncle's house."

"How is this possible!" Princess Tanna exclaimed in disbelief.

"Lend me your tablet and I'll send you the video."

Princess Tanna pointed to the tablet on the table and asked Meng Qingxiao to take it by himself.

Meng Qingxiao picked up the tablet. His lightning armor could change into any shape at will, including a data cable. His palm covered the tablet's data cable slot, and the liquid metal in his palm quickly deformed. Plug it into your tablet and start streaming video.

The current driver is developed by Xiaodai himself, but it is Lanche who provides the technology.

The driver developed by Rancher for the fixed astrolabe was of great help to Xiao Dai. It was with the help of Rancher's code that Xiao Dai was able to connect to the local Internet normally.

After the transmission was completed, Meng Qingxiao showed the video to Princess Anna. She watched it silently and then began to meditate.

Meng Qingxiao said: "Now I suspect that the person who killed your father was actually Bohan. It is a good thing that your fifth uncle and your second brother have joined forces, so you don't have to worry about your fifth uncle doing anything bad to you. ."

Princess Tanna said: "Although Bohan is very young, he has always been highly valued by my father. When my father was alive, he often praised him and said that he is a rare genius among us Boji people who only come across in a hundred years."

"Bohan has always been loyal to my father. He is a strong general whom my father single-handedly promoted. My father treats him even better than he treats my second brother. It is really hard for me to believe that he is the one who killed my father. murderer."

"But you also heard what your fifth uncle said to your second brother. Bohan prevented your second brother from entering the city and also tried to control your fifth uncle. However, your fifth uncle was unwilling to be controlled by an outsider, so he took the initiative to contact you. Your second brother."

Tanna asked: "Have you found Tange?"

Meng Qingxiao shook his head and said regretfully: "No, Tange should not be at your fifth uncle's house. I have been monitoring your fifth uncle for more than ten days, and I have never seen Tange at all."

"That's strange. The royal city is so big, where would she be hiding?" Tanna said to herself, "Could she be in the civilian living area?"

Meng Qingxiao looked at Tanna curiously. He felt a little strange, so he asked, "You don't seem happy that your second brother and your fifth uncle have joined forces?"

"Should I be happy?" Tanna asked.

"Excluding your third brother who is not interested in politics, these are the only two relatives you have. The two of them unite to speak to the outside world. No matter from any aspect, it should be a happy thing, right?"

Tanna shook her head and said: "You don't understand. Royal men have no family ties at all. They only cooperate in terms of interests. Once their common enemy is killed, only the two of them will be left, and they still don't know whether the fight will be successful." What's it like?"

"Are they that unbearable?" Meng Qingxiao couldn't believe it. "Do they have to kill until the blood flows like rivers and no relatives are left before they stop?"

"Because only in this way can potential threats be eliminated."

"If I had known today, then why did your grandfather and your father have so many children? It would be better to only have one, so as to avoid further conflicts."

"Because we have to survive the fittest, what if we give birth to only one child and he is a fool?" Tanna said matter-of-factly, "A person like that cannot keep our family's property."

"So their fight is actually reasonable and compliant?"

"Yes, only the strongest one will have the last laugh."

"You're actually right, and you still support this theory. Oh my God, your family has really refreshed my outlook on things."

"So I say you are not suitable to be king. If you become king, I am afraid you will be pulled down within three days."

"Come on, you are the king here, even if you let me be me, I am not worthy of it. Even the family ties have been lost, and only naked political struggle is left. What fun is there in such a life?"

Meng Qingxiao shook his head when he heard this. He didn't expect that Tanna was such a person, which greatly reduced his favorable impression of Tanna and gave him the idea of ​​staying away from her.

Meng Qingxiao said goodbye to Tanna. From now on, he would embark on the road to find the murderer alone. He decided not to seek Tanna's help unless necessary.
