Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system-Chapter 1042 - 1031 Interstellar Plane 67

"This is also a possibility, but whom can he threaten? Who has the capability to know his movements and hire Star Thieves to deal with him?" Yan Mo looked at Qin Muyang, and had to admit, as one of the heirs to the Empire, he indeed attracted hatred.

"Now that you mention it, I have a suspect. For some reason, since our military training ended, Ke Wei’er always looks at me with hostility every time he sees me. But I don’t remember doing anything to offend him, and my father has never done anything against the Maister Family either." While Qin Muyang talked about this, he also appeared confused. He had even initiated investigations to find out whether he had unintentionally done something that might have infringed upon his interests, or whether his father had tried to move against the Maister Family and got discovered, causing his hostility, but there was nothing, which was puzzling.

"Is it possible that he is just jealous of you?" Xia Yue suggested tactfully.

"Jealous of what? My status? Strength? Or popularity?" Qin Muyang felt it was unlikely. These were qualities he already possessed before, but the hostility had developed after the military training, which made no sense.

Suddenly, it seemed like he thought of something, speaking in a tone mixed with surprise and uncertainty, "Could it be because of Tina Morwen? Since the military training ended, Tina has been showing up in front of me often, behaving very friendly and even wanted to ask me out, but I refused. Perhaps Ke Wei’er likes Tina but Tina doesn’t reciprocate his feelings, thus he has grown hostile towards me, and this time, I will be competing in the new student competition between Command Department and Combat Department. Since I have always been top ranked, he might want to get rid of me so he can be the top and no one would compete with him for Tina."

The more Qin Muyang spoke, the more reasonable it seemed, and Ke Wei’er indeed had the capability to hire Star Thieves to deal with him.

"What you said is highly possible, but there’s no evidence to prove it’s him. Even if you go back, you can’t charge him with anything," Yan Mo said to him, expressing that his hypothesis was just a guess, and to ascertain it, concrete evidences are still needed.

"When I return, I’ll have my father help me investigate; those Star Thieves might be the breakthrough, they were from the Mad Wolf Star Thieves." Although those Star Thieves had been killed and their spaceship destroyed, he still made note of their unique insignia.

"That’s something you’ll have to handle yourself then; we can’t really help with that," Yan Mo stated, acknowledging they couldn’t interfere much.

With a suspect in mind, Qin Muyang started recollecting everything related to Ke Wei’er, hoping to find a breakthrough.

After resting, Yan Mo went to the Operation Room to accelerate the spaceship, reaching the jump point to leap through space, shortening the distance and finally returning to Central Star after several hours. Xia Yue and Yan Mo took the spaceship back to its original place, then stealthily escorted Qin Muyang back to the Imperial Palace, saw him being received by the Royal Guard, and then left to return to the Ming Family, found Ming Yue, telling her that the spaceship had been returned.

"Are you all okay?" Ming Yue looked at them, concerned.

"We’re fine, thank you for the spaceship, our mission was completed successfully," Xia Yue said with a smile.

"That’s good to hear." Ming Yue hesitated, wanting to ask about Qin Muyang but before she could ask, her Neural alerted her. She checked it and saw the message that Qin Muyang had safely returned to the Imperial Palace.

"Ming Yue, if there’s nothing else, we’ll head back to the dormitory. There’s a big competition in a few days, you both should rest well and aim for good results," Xia Yue seemed to guess what the message was about as Ming Yue visibly cheered up.

"Alright, you both rest well and aim for good results too," Ming Yue said with a nod and a smile, knowing she also had to go to the Imperial Palace to visit Qin Muyang.
