Chapter 232 Colin’s identity?
"No, you say."
Evelin rarely saw Vincent's tone so serious, and she couldn't help but frown.
"I haven't contacted you for a while because I found something strange in the last Huo Youshan case."
Having said that, Vincent paused and spoke again.
"Do you remember the surveillance video that Jin Yingming showed at the time, in which Huo Wanqing was on the phone?"
"I remember. Any questions?"
Evelin didn’t answer it. It was just a phone call. What was so strange about it?
"I found that Huo Youshan woke up when Huo Wanqing was on the phone, and her expression suddenly changed and she quarreled with Huo Wanqing. It should be because of the content of Huo Wanqing's call."
"But the surveillance video didn't have a recording function, so when we watched it, we had no way of knowing what Huo Wanqing said."
"However, after returning to the Si family, I studied it carefully for a long time, and then sought help from an expert in lip reading."
"It roughly restored what Huo Wanqing said at the time, and..."
Vincent paused, as if considering how to explain.
Evelin's heart sank as she listened, and she had a sense of foreboding.
"The person she was talking to should be Ares."
"What!?"
Evelyn covered her mouth in shock.
"Although it's just a guess, judging from what Huo Wanqing said about not withdrawing troops, it should be correct."
"That means the battle against the LE virus in Mingdu might also be related to Huo Wanqing?! Or maybe she is one of the people behind the scenes?"
Evelyn thought for a moment before speaking again.
"Yes."
"What Huo Wanqing said during the call was basically that in order to cooperate with Ares, she killed her own father with her own hands, and she would never allow Ares to withdraw its troops at that time."
Vincent continued to explain the information he had collected. Evelyn forced herself to remain calm as much as possible and sorted out all the seemingly disorganized clues.
"But didn't Huo Lie die several years ago? The timeline..."
"I know about this matter. She once came to me for cooperation, using Huo Lie's secret as a bargaining chip."
"Her father was indeed the one who sent someone to do it."
Vincent thought for a moment, but in the end he did not tell Evelin the real purpose of Huo Wanqing's meeting with him.
It's not that he intended to hide it, but he simply didn't dare.
He was too afraid that something like this would affect the little bit of affection that was left between him and Evelin.
"So, she and I didn't work together successfully. When she returned to the southern continent to take over the Huo family, she learned the secret guarded by the family heads of all generations, the LE virus."
"And we also discovered Huo Lie's ambition. He had long been in contact with those who had rebellious intentions in the blood clan, and the initial clue was the Brando family."
"However, the Brando family was later wiped out, and Huo Lie took over the Brando family's position in the entire plan and got in touch with the person who planned everything behind the scenes."
"And that person..."
"That person is Ares."
At the same time, Evelyn continued Vincent's words, her frown revealing that the matter was complicated and very difficult.
"Later, Huo Wanqing used the LE virus and Huo Lie's head to show her loyalty to Ares in exchange for the opportunity to cooperate with me."
“As for what Ares promised Huo Wanqing, I think it was probably Garland.”
Vincent flipped through the handwritten notebook and explained each item to Evelyn.
"Then again, Huo Youshan and Huo Wanqing quarreled after Huo Wanqing admitted that she killed her father, which made Huo Wanqing want to kill her."
"That makes sense."
"After all, Huo Wanqing was able to do such a thing as capturing innocent people for live experiments on her sister. How could she kill her for no reason? Unless Huo Youshan knew something that threatened her."
"You guessed it right."
Vincent nodded to himself. He was the one who was most reluctant to mention Evelyn's dark memory.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. I know everything."
Evelin took a deep breath. After so many years, the misfortunes that Huo Wanqing had suffered no longer cast much of a shadow on her.
But the hatred still exists.
"Wait, there's one more thing."
"Be careful of Colin, the president of the Senate. He appears inexplicably."
"His upbringing and family affiliation seem to be fine, but it's this appearance that makes it suspicious."
"I suspect he is Ares."
Vincent closed his notebook and his voice became extremely low.
No one has ever actually seen what Ares looks like. The most common rumor is that he has silver-white hair.
Ares withdrew his troops from Hades, and right after Evelyn removed the former president of the Senate, Colin suddenly appeared to win people's hearts.
Vincent's intuition told him that all of this was definitely not a coincidence.
"Colin's business in Juntu has extended to every corner. I found out that the nightclub in the city center is where he puts the most effort."
"Only royal nobles and their children are welcome there. Ordinary nobles can't even step foot in there."
"I suspect that he might be doing something shameful, and is using it to win over or control and coerce the nobles to support him in securing his position as the president of the Senate."
"His ambition is by no means limited to the president of the Senate. The Lan family, the Si family, and even the entire Northern Continent should be careful."
After hearing Vincent's words, Evelyn realized at the first moment that this was not just a crisis for one or two families, but perhaps a crisis for the entire Northern Continent, the entire Carter Continent. It was another war that threatened everyone after the Second Battle of Anders.
"I will find time to tell my brother about these things. You should also be careful."
Evelyn thought for a while before speaking. Garland had the right to know, and Vincent would never mind if he knew about this.
After all, this concerns the entire vampire clan.
"Okay, be careful too, don't act on your own."
"If there is anything, or if you want to know anything, just come to me."
Vincent nodded. What he was most worried about was that Evelin would conduct an in-depth investigation on her own. If she encountered any danger, it would not be like Huo Wanqing's previous small-scale investigation.
Ares is a very cold-blooded person, as we can see from the fact that he failed to capture the Hades and dropped the LE virus without any hesitation, directly destroying the entire Hades.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Evelyn comforted Vincent and wanted to say something else when she heard Ollie’s voice coming from afar.
"Your Highness, you are too heartless. You just left me and ran away like this?"
Ollie yelled and walked into Lanburg in a careless manner. Evelyn rolled her eyes speechlessly and said goodbye to Vincent.
