Freya slowly lowered her head. After thinking carefully, it seemed that there was indeed such a thing.
But what on earth had happened to her? She clearly had a good tolerance for alcohol, so how could she have gotten drunk for no reason?
Could it be that there was something wrong with the wine?
Bradley saw her big eyes rolling around and immediately understood what she was thinking.
"I asked Blue Book to investigate. The beer in Country Z is quite strong, and you drank a lot of it, which is why you got drunk."
Freya let out an "oh".
She had thought the wine tasted good at that time and couldn't stop drinking. Who would have thought she almost caused a big disaster.
"Let me take a look at your wound first."
Freya said anxiously, then grabbed his arm and examined it.
Bradley had obviously treated the wound himself and applied medicine, but the wound was very deep and looked terrifying.
"That man in black is good at using hidden weapons, and this is the first time I've seen such a hidden weapon."
After treating the wound for him again, Freya went to look for that hidden weapon.
But her clothes had been changed, and the hidden weapon wasn't on her anymore.
Just as she was about to ask, the man opened his palm. Freya smiled and took the hidden weapon, carefully observing it in the sunlight.
"This hidden weapon looks simple, but it's actually extremely sharp. Coupled with the fact that the other person used great force, it can make the wound deeper."
Bradley hummed in agreement. "I've seen this kind of hidden weapon a few years ago."
"Where?"
"Yuan Kingdom (abbreviated as Yuan Country)."
The man's voice turned a bit colder.
The man in black last night had excellent skills and was clearly well-trained. However, he couldn't figure out why the people from Yuan Country would come after him. His mother had been dead for so many years, and Solterra had gone through decline and was being rebuilt.
Bradley really couldn't think of a better reason, but he had already asked Ying to investigate this matter. He believed that there would be clues soon.
"Could it be related to Yuan Xiao? After all, we've imprisoned Yuan Xiao for so long, and Yuan Xiao is from the royal family of Yuan Country. Maybe those people are here to avenge him."
"Before we investigate it clearly, it's hard to say anything. But after we return to our country, we can indeed interrogate Yuan Xiao properly."
They had neglected this person before. They imprisoned him just to prevent him from causing trouble everywhere. They didn't expect that the people from Yuan Country would actually come to their door.
But no matter what their purpose was, they wouldn't succeed!
Freya hummed in agreement. Suddenly, she remembered something and turned her head to ask, "By the way, is there any news about the queen?"
Bradley shook his head. "Still nothing. I suspect that the queen has gone into hiding. If she doesn't show up on her own initiative, it will be very difficult for our people to locate her whereabouts."
The people from the Dark Web had all been dispatched, but there were no clues at all.
Even the people sent out by Yelü An hadn't sent back any news.
This showed that she was hiding in some unknown place. However, the land, sea, and air routes had all been blocked, and the queen couldn't possibly escape from Country Z.
"Since we can't wait for news, I plan to go to the infirmary first. After all, there are still some problems with Xiaolan's prosthetic limb, and I need to discuss it with Dr. Xu in person. Also, Xiaolan's mental state is not optimistic. If she needs psychological counseling, I want to talk to her first to understand the situation."
Xu Yan had contacted her several times recently and always talked about Xiaolan's mental state.
Originally, Freya had planned to deal with the matters of the queen and Yelü An and then go back. Now it seemed that the plan should be advanced!
"Alright. Leave this side to Ying and Yelü An. They will inform us immediately if there is any news."
"Okay. Let's set off in the afternoon."
After finalizing the plan, Bradley called Yelü An and Ying to assign tasks and instructed them to secretly investigate the clues about the man in black.
In the afternoon, the two of them flew to the Dark Web.
Gabriel, along with his subordinates, had already been waiting at the private airport outside the infirmary.
When he saw Bradley and Freya getting off the plane, he greeted them respectfully.
"Dark Master!"
"Madam!"
The subordinates bowed their heads in unison.
Bradley nodded to everyone and walked up to Gabriel.
It had only been a short time since they last met, but the once cold and ruthless Gabriel's handsome face actually showed some signs of vicissitudes and fatigue. It seemed that Xiaolan's situation had put a lot of pressure on him.
Freya also came closer and asked, "How is Xiaolan?"
Although Gabriel had no expression on his face, Freya could still tell that he was in a bad mood, and even his voice was very indifferent.
"Her mood is getting worse day by day. Recently, I've been busy with the two children, and it's all Xiaoling who has been helping to take care of her."
Upon hearing this, Freya's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
Xu Yan had told her that Xiaolan's mood was fluctuating, and recently she had been arguing with Gabriel frequently. She had originally thought that Xiaolan lacked a sense of security, but now it seemed that wasn't the case.
A large part of Xiaolan's unease was because of Lan Xiaoling.
Facing this beautiful and understanding younger sister, Xiaolan felt inferior and lacked confidence.
But Gabriel obviously didn't realize what was causing Xiaolan's emotions. He even asked Lan Xiaoling to come and take care of Xiaolan.
In this way, with the young and beautiful younger sister constantly in front of her, talking about the situation of the two children and occasionally mentioning Gabriel, how would Xiaolan feel?
According to psychology, when people are in their most vulnerable state, they see everyone as an enemy, and other people's kindness will be misinterpreted as mockery or a bad feeling.
I'm afraid that's exactly the situation Xiaolan is in now.
Freya sighed in her heart.
It seemed that this problem was very difficult to solve. While soothing Xiaolan's emotions, they also had to protect Lan Xiaoling from being hurt. They had to come up with a perfect solution.
"Take me to see Xiaolan first."
Now, she had to see the person first.
Gabriel nodded and led the two of them to the ward.
As soon as they reached the door, Freya heard the conversation inside.
"Sister, Yuanbao and Yuanman are very obedient. Don't worry. Take good care of your health."
It was Lan Xiaoling who was speaking.
She took care of the two children at home every day and also helped with the housework. Gabriel had offered to hire a maid several times seeing how hard she was working, but Lan Xiaoling had refused.
Over time, Gabriel had just let it be.
Recently, because Xiaolan's emotions were unstable, Gabriel had rarely come to the infirmary. It had always been Lan Xiaoling who was in charge of Xiaolan's daily life.
However, Xiaolan was always filled with jealousy when she saw this younger sister.
She asked, "Where's Gabriel? Why hasn't he come recently?"
Lan Xiaoling served her a bowl of soup and smiled. "Gabriel has a mission. He said he's not available recently and asked me to take good care of you, sister. If you want to eat anything, just tell me, and I'll make it for you later."
Upon hearing this, Xiaolan narrowed her eyes, and her hand on the bed clenched the bed sheet tightly.
Was he really not available, or did he dislike her and not want to see her?
