The Interstellar's Expert Plant Tamer

Xie Sen was silent for a moment, then opened the door to let Meyer into the house. The two of them sat on the couch. Tuan Tuan landed on Xie Sen’s shoulder, as it looked at the stranger across from him.

Xie Sen’s mind was racing, as he tried to figure out what to do, but the more he thought about it, the worse it got. If it hadn’t been destroyed, there was no reason why Soria wouldn’t accuse Maine of it! He knew all too well how much Soria hated Maine.

He put a polite smile on his lips. “Lieutenant General Cox, I think you misunderstood. Maine and I feel sympathy for what happened to Julos. We understand your desire to find the killer, but this has nothing to do with Maine.”

“You’re as cunning as Maine,” Meyer said with a mocking look in his eyes. “And it seems you won’t believe it until you see the truth.”

Xie Sen said, “Of course I won’t believe it. If there was any surveillance, I think your wife would have taken it out a long time ago instead of resorting to crazy methods of retaliation.”

Meyer’s face sank. Xie Sen’s mention of Soria obviously brought back unpleasant memories. He gave Xie Sen a hard look. “That’s because he was too stupid to even know that Thor had secretly transferred the destroyed surveillance, then restored it.”

Xie Sen’s fingers clenched. “If that’s the case, why would Thor tell you about something so secretive?”

“Because he wanted to seek my help, of course. Just as he deliberately restored the surveillance. In order to prevent Soria from silencing him, he made preparations in advance. This preparation has now become his leverage when asking me for help.” Meyer said as he stared at him. “Well. I’ve answered all your questions for you, now let’s look at the truth. I don’t want to waste any more words explaining it to you.”

He opened his bracelet, expanded the virtual screen, and pressed the start button.

Xie Sen looked at the screen. The resolution of the screen wasn’t very high, there was probably some damage during the recovery. Maine and Julos fought. It didn’t take long for the fight to end. In the last scene, Maine picked up the knife Julos dropped on the ground, and he left with Xie Sen.

Xie Sen stared at the knife. He thought of the photo of weapon in Julos’ murder that he had seen on the Starnet, and his heart gradually sank.

Meyer watched his expression tighten, and gave him a pleasant smile as he turned off the bracelet. “By your reaction, I think you know what this knife means?”

Xie Sen glared at him. “I don’t know. There are plenty of knives just like it.”

“No, this knife is different. It was a gift from Soria to Julos. It’s a special one, there’s only one like it,” Meyer said. “Don’t get your hopes up.”

Xie Sen looked at his triumphant pleasure, and couldn’t help but be angry. “Isn’t Maine your son? You let Julos bully him when he was a kid, and now you want to send him to jail yourself?”

“He’s not my son. He’s not a Cox.” Meyer scowled. His tone was cold and harsh. “And it’s up to you, whether you want to send him to jail or not.”

Xie Sen frowned. “What do you mean?”

Meyer said, “Maine took on Julos, then played the Cox family in turn. He didn’t respect the Cox family, and so his punishment should be the same. But he is lucky to have you as his boyfriend. As long as you agree to my request, I can spare him.”

Xie Sen had a bad feeling in his heart. “What do you want?”

Meyer’s eyes shone. “Let Cuomo and the giant lion beast bond. I know you can do it,” He paused. “Originally I only had this one request, but now that I think about it, it seems a little too easy. I have a famous subordinate who is a giant tiger beast master. Let him and the giant tiger beast bond. As long as you complete these two tasks, I really will destroy this surveillance and let Maine go.”
