Chapter 147 Take a Sharp Turn and Counterattack One After Another

In terms of probability, it is very likely.

Judging from the facts, it is 100% certain that Xia Zu is a traitor.

However, that is not the case in the eyes of the people.

The reason why public opinion is scary is because there are a large number of ordinary people who don't know the truth at all.

In other words, before they had time to find out what the truth was like, they were already surrounded by overwhelming public opinion.

Also, people firmly believe in what they see.

This is hearing is believing, seeing is believing.

As for whether what you see is what the people behind the scenes who manipulate public opinion deliberately want you to see, then... it doesn't matter.

No one cares about this.

Qin Mo has been a human being for two lifetimes, so he can see it very clearly.

He thought of this almost instantly, and it is predictable that there must be a two-stage reversal in the direction of public opinion today.

The royal family is not a group of fools, they will never let go of this excellent opportunity to counterattack the five families.

Not to mention, why did the news of the border spread to the imperial capital first?

If there is no shadow of the royal family behind this, Qin Mo would not believe it.

He squinted his eyes, without any expression fluctuations on his face, and he didn't seem to have any strange emotions because of it.

However, if someone who is familiar with him sees this scene, he will clearly know...

Qin Mo is very upset now.

Operation Huang Quan had clearly reached the final step, and he would soon achieve his goal, but at this moment an accident happened.

Who would be more comfortable with it?

And the ongoing dialogue between the Five Great Masters and Li Mou and the others was like adding insult to injury, making his already bad mood even more embarrassing.

Thinking in this way, Qin Mo took out his mobile phone from his pocket and logged in the website addresses of major media.

I saw the headlines on the current front page, all of which were popular, all of which were related reports about Qing Yishui's "Big Victory at the Frontier, Champion Hou Weiwu" and so on.

As he expected, the direction of public opinion has reversed, and the data such as discussion popularity, search times, and browsing records are still soaring upwards.

Public opinion is far from reaching its peak, and the most turbulent tide has never appeared.

"It's really interesting."

Qin Mo murmured something in a low voice, and at the same time withdrew his hearing, got up and walked towards the outer hall.

The banquet has already started for more than five minutes, but everyone is still in a state of confusion, and no one is going to host.

Everyone is waiting for the appearance of the five princes, and only after they get their consent can the main event of tonight be officially debuted.

However, I'm afraid they never thought that the five families have no time to take care of them now.

As for Qin Mo, he was too lazy to participate in this kind of banquet, and wished to leave early.

He didn't listen to Li Mou's arrangement at all, and walked directly towards Li Yuan and the others after entering the banquet hall.

Several acquaintances of Li Yuan and Chu Tianjiao were gathering together, and when they saw Qin Mo approaching with a blank face, their respective hearts flickered a little.

Chu Tianjiao raised the iconic pair of thick eyebrows on his forehead, and asked firstly:

"What happened? What about my father?"

Hearing this, Qin Mo did not answer directly, but said to several people:

"Come here to host the banquet. If it's about time, it should be over. As for the dukes...you'll know when you look at your phone."

Qin Mo spread his hands, then turned around and walked towards Li Tiangang, who was crouching in a corner, talking with a mature woman.

Li Yuan and the others stared at him blankly, they were all a little dazed for a moment, and a dazed look flashed in their pupils.

What the hell?

Chu Tianjiao rubbed the back of his head, and subconsciously pulled out his phone. Before he could take a closer look at what it was, the push reports from various media broke into his sight.

At this moment, everyone was startled, their faces showing astonishment.

"The frontier... actually won?!"

Chu Tianjiao muttered to himself, his words were full of surprise.

For him, it was inevitable for Daqin to win the battle, but he never expected that it would come so fast and win so abruptly.

This is not good news for the Five Great Masters.

For a moment, Chu Tianjiao couldn't help but froze in place.

The children of other aristocratic families gathered around him keenly noticed his strangeness, and at the same time saw the message on his mobile phone screen.

Ever since, with Chu Tianjiao as the center, the news of Xia Zu's victory spread rapidly to the surrounding area.

In just a few tens of seconds, the entire banquet hall fell into a turmoil. Almost everyone was looking down at the mobile phone in their hands, full of shock.

Seeing this, the faces of Li Yuan and the others were not very good, but now is not the time to talk about other things.

Qin Mo became the hands-off shopkeeper, so they had no choice but to host the banquet and maintain order at the scene.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Qin Mo and Li Tiangang in the corner.

He just sat on the sofa, crossed his legs habitually, and quietly looked at the slightly turbulent hall. His expression was as usual, like a deep pool of water, without any waves.

The hustle and bustle in the hall lasted for about twenty minutes before Chu Tianjiao and the others managed to control the situation.

At this time, it was obviously impossible to continue the planned celebration banquet, so they had no choice but to announce the end in advance as Qin Mo said.

And ten minutes later after the banquet, Li Mou's princes finally appeared from the back of the small hall.

The faces of the five people did not seem to have changed, but everyone's brows were slightly wrinkled, as if they were deeply worried, which was difficult to resolve.

Li Mou walked to Qin Mo's side and sat down, the worry on his brows became more and more serious.

"How?" Qin Mo asked.

Hearing this, Li Mou shook his head, and said slowly: "From the current situation, it is extremely unfavorable to the five great families, but we will not just wait like this, the Presbyterian Council has initially decided on a counterattack strategy .

We must first try to see if we can bring public opinion back to the original direction. "

"Are you sure?" Qin Mo asked again.

"To be honest, I don't have much confidence, it's too abrupt, the Five Families are not prepared at all, and the power of the royal family is behind the public opinion.

Now there is only one night left, and I don't know if it is enough. "

Li Mou replied, frowning tightly.

On the other hand, Qin Mo, who was at the side, had a flash of light in the depths of his eyes. Li Mou's words undoubtedly confirmed his guess.

What happened today, there is indeed a royal family behind it.

but……

Qin Mo suddenly lowered his eyebrows and asked, "Why is there only one night left?"

"Because Xia Zu will return to the imperial capital early in the morning, and by that time, the voice of the people will reach a peak, and it will be too late to change public opinion." Li Mou replied.

Afterwards, he got up from the sofa, bowed his head and said to Qin Mo: "I need to arrange the specific deployment of the imperial capital in person, and I will talk to you later."

"Well, then I'll go home first."

Qin Mo nodded and said, watching Li Mou's back gradually disappear before his eyes, then said:

"In that case, let's go too."

"It's all right, it's up to you."

Li Tiangang shrugged, then raised his head and downed half a glass of red wine in his hand, and followed Qin Mo to leave the banquet hall.

The two of them had just left the house when a hot breeze blew in their faces, with a strong smell of a midsummer night, which made people feel bored.

The deep night in front of them was like a gigantic spider web, covering their heads involuntarily, high above them, with playful eyes and mocking thoughts.

Qin Mo stood there, frowning slightly, and paused for about two seconds before moving on.

This subtle action of his did not hide from Li Tiangang's eyes.

Li Tiangang didn't get along with Qin Mo for long, but he knew what kind of temperament Qin Mo was.

Don't look at him being silent now, as if nothing happened.

But in fact, he was very unhappy.

Li Tiangang knew the specific reason for his unhappiness.

Soon, the two got into the supercar, and Li Tiangang stepped on the accelerator to death, soaring the speed to the limit.

Facing the hunting wind coming from the pavement, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand, then stretched out the other hand to pat Qin Mo's shoulder, and said in a trembling voice:

"Kid, keep your heart in your stomach, although I was caught off guard this time, it's not a problem at all.

Since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty thousands of years ago, there have been countless top aristocratic families like the Gaoling Xia Clan, but what will be the final result?

Didn't it turn into a piece of loess in history, gradually disappearing in people's hearts without leaving any traces.

The Five Families are the Five Families after all, and not any Amoah dog can shake them, so you don't have to worry too much. "

"Huh? Am I worried?" Qin Mo asked back.

"You've already written your displeasure on your face, so you're not worried? There's nothing to worry about. The Xia family has lost so many direct bloodlines, and it's hopeless. No one can save them."

At this point, Li Mou couldn't help smiling, and by the way, flicked the flowing bangs on his forehead.

However, Qin Mo did not continue to reply.

He always felt that this time it was not that simple, Xia Zu and the royal family obviously came prepared.

Facing the previous pressure from the five major families and the offensive of public opinion, they did not make any counterattacks at all, and adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

In this way, they waited until the last darkness before dawn, when people's vigilance was the lowest and their vigilance was the weakest, before they made a bold move!

The other party is like a pack of bloodthirsty wolves hunting in the silent wilderness, with extremely sufficient patience, and...

Endless madness.

It's really hard to say who will win the game.

No matter how weak the royal family of this generation is, it is still the royal family, the supreme king who has ruled the Great Qin for thousands of years.

As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and anyone who despises the royal family will pay a heavy price.

Qin Mo narrowed his eyes again, with such emotion in his heart.

"I hope it's true."

he murmured softly.

Just at this time, a sudden ringtone of the mobile phone rang, piercing through the whistling wind, and falling firmly into Qin Mo's ears, it was extremely clear.

He lowered his head and took out his mobile phone, turned on the screen and saw that it was a call from Li Ming.

At this moment, Qin Mo suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

But he didn't think about it, he directly pressed the dial button, put the phone to his ear, and prepared to listen to it first.

After the call was connected, Li Ming's solemn voice came from the other end of the phone immediately.

"Marquis of Guannei, something happened to the Security Bureau, and the disciples of the Xia family are being imprisoned on the first basement floor..."

boom!

It was like a thunderbolt from the ground, piercing through Qin Mo's mind.

His expression changed suddenly, his eyes were extremely sharp, and he immediately turned to Li Tiangang who was in the driver's seat and said in a deep voice:

"Turn to the Security Bureau first!"

Qin Mo's voice was three points heavier than before, and Li Tiangang instantly noticed the solemnity in it.

Therefore, he didn't ask, but just nodded slightly, then slammed on the accelerator to perform a deft and difficult drift, and flew towards the security bureau.

...

ten minutes later.

Security Bureau, first basement floor, cell room.

Qin Mo put his hands behind his back and stared at the two corpses in front of him with a calm face.

The person lying in front of his eyes was none other than the two witnesses he specially prepared for the Gaoling Xia Clan...

Xia Dongfang, and Xia Mei!

These two people died inexplicably, the candle of life was completely extinguished, even the relics of the holy spirit were analyzed, and they were so dead that they could not die anymore.

And the most important thing is, don't die sooner, never die later, and die at such a time.

Without witnesses, the various crimes committed by the Gaolingxia family are like rootless duckweed, without any convincing force at all.

Needless to say, this is really a bit too coincidental.

It's no wonder that Qin Mo's face is now gloomy like a deep pool.

The deaths of Xia Mei and Xia Dongfang undoubtedly made the situation worse, making the already bad situation even worse.

Qin Mo took a deep breath, then turned to look at Li Ming who was beside him, and asked slowly:

"In the past few days, has anyone else come into contact with them?"

"I can take the head as a guarantee, absolutely not."

Li Ming's tone was decisive, and it was obvious that he also knew the seriousness of the matter.

Immediately afterwards, he continued to speak: "Since the two were imprisoned in the cell, no one has entered the cell except me, and I have been hiding in the dark, guarding day and night. Here, one step never goes out.

Outside the building of the Security Bureau, there were dozens of S-class awakened people secretly arranged by the five major families. They didn't notice anything unusual or found any suspicious persons.

If it was really done by someone in person, it is absolutely impossible to do it quietly, and it will definitely be exposed. "

After hearing his words, Qin Mo couldn't help frowning and fell into deep thought.

There is no need to question Li Ming's loyalty, he can withstand any test.

In other words, no one has entered the cell to commit murder.

But if you look at it this way, how did Xia Mei and Xia Dongfang die?

Qin Mo didn't know for the time being, he withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the corpse in front of him, now he could only wait for Li Changqing's investigation results.

Wait for another ten minutes.

Li Changqing got up slowly, raised his sleeves to wipe off the fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, looking extremely tired.

"I checked the remaining mental bodies of the two just now, and found that there were very slight traces of mental fluctuations in a very deep, hidden corner." He said slowly.

Hearing this, Qin Mo frowned slightly, and asked, "What does this fluctuation mean?"

"This means that a mental system awakener whose rank is far higher than mine tampered with the two of them, and he used this slight mental fluctuation to detonate the spiritual seeds that were originally rooted in the two of them.

Moreover, judging from this ray of mental fluctuations, it didn't take too long to plant it, probably within the last three or four days. "Li Changqing explained.

Qin Mo's brows frowned even more tightly, his super brain was running rapidly, and countless complicated thoughts flashed through his mind instantly.

In the past three or four days, the only thing Xia Mei and Xia Dongfang did was to go to the royal restricted area from the security bureau.

If the other party wants to make a move, it can only choose at this time.

And no matter whether they are going or returning, they are escorted by Li Ming and S-level awakened people arranged by the five masters along the way. How did the other party manage to do it in the air?

Qin Mo couldn't figure it out, he really didn't know much about spiritual awakeners.

However, as the spiritual system with the rarest number and the most mysterious ability in the entire awakened system, it must have some unique special means.

Such means are elusive.

But Qin Mo has roughly guessed the identity of the mysterious spiritual awakener whose rank is far higher than that of Li Changqing.

You know, whether it was the Tiandihui at the beginning or the Gaoling Xia clan now, there has always been a spiritual awakener hiding behind him, and he has never shown his face.

Even if he killed Xia Xuan and destroyed most of the Gaoling Xia Clan's power, he never showed up, and he hid extremely deeply.

To be honest, Li Shi of Qingyang almost forgot that there was such a person.

Unexpectedly, at this time, he would use such a method to forcefully declare his existence.

At this moment, Qin Mo's face finally became extremely ugly.
