My Endless Life.

Chapter 474 Immunity

'I believe her'.

When Hongye heard Richie's words of trust in her, she couldn't help but feel a little happy and joyful.

Hongye never lied from beginning to end. She did not reveal Li Qi's whereabouts to anyone. She contacted the Renaissance Society to confirm the situation of the Renaissance Society.

Her companion Qingliu suspected that Hongye was hiding something, but out of trust in her friend, Qingliu did not continue to ask.

And when it was confirmed that the Fuxing Society would not come to visit for a while, Hongye felt relaxed and relieved instead of panicking.

She was glad that the Renaissance Society would not come knocking on her door, and that she could continue to be with Richie.

Hongye felt that she must have fallen in love at first sight.

When Hongye actually saw Richie, the Duke's son, in person, she felt her heart pounding.

Later, when she was on the run with Richie, his every move, all the actions that were beyond her expectations, deepened her love for Richie.

That's why Hongye is willing to work with Richie.

Because she knew that this might be her only chance to stay with Richie. Otherwise, with her status, position and strength level, it would be impossible for her to meet Richie, let alone be in the same city with him.

And now, Richie is willing to try to trust her, so Hongye will definitely not let him down!

“Calm down…Calm down…”

In front of the patrol team, Hongye showed her noble status and was surrounded by the patrol team members.

She stood in the empty hall, in front of her was the patrol captain, a fifth-level mechanic, who was walking towards her, and behind her were Art and Richie, who were disguised as servants and butlers.

Further back are the elite members of the patrol team.

From the time the patrol team showed up to the time they boarded the ship, it took no more than half an hour.

And within the next fifteen minutes, the patrol team completely took control of this old antique spaceship, so their captain had the leisure to meet Hongye, the only noble on the spaceship.

"Miss Trey, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

The patrol leader, an ordinary noble with the rank of captain, performed the noble salute when he came in front of Hongye.

It is not difficult to tell from the patrol captain's rank that he should be a viscount.

But because it was not hereditary, when facing Hongye who had a hereditary title, he had to bow first and not lose his composure in front of the high-ranking nobles.

The patrol captain bowed and saluted, and Hongye instantly changed from an ignorant "new recruit" to a lady from a wealthy family who had received a good etiquette education.

She responded to the patrol captain with a ladylike manner and a perfect smile on her face, showing her aristocratic demeanor.

The patrol captain looked at Hongye and also showed a polite smile on his face.

Hongye's identity is not difficult to confirm. The nobles all have their own family crests, and there are special records of the nobles' internal network. Hongye only needs to log in and confirm it briefly, and compare her pupil fingerprints and consciousness patterns to confirm her identity.

Therefore, the captain did not doubt Hongye's identity, and even wanted to establish a good relationship with her.

After all, one way for non-hereditary nobles to become hereditary nobles is to marry into a hereditary noble family.

Hongye is only in her twenties this year, which is a good age for marriage. The patrol captain is a low-ranking noble who was exiled to the border, so it is normal for him to have some thoughts about Hongye.

But having the intention is one thing, and he also has to complete the tasks assigned by his superiors.

So after the salute, the patrol captain said to Hongye:
"Ms. Trey, I have confirmed your identity, but please allow us to check your subordinates."

"Matt... Captain, right?" Hongye's expression remained unchanged. She tucked her hair behind her ears and asked Matt with a smile, "I remember that nobles have the right to be exempted from inspection."

"Yes, Miss Trey, under normal circumstances, nobles and their subordinates do not need to undergo a comprehensive inspection."

"Then why..."

"Miss Trey has been away from home for too long. I'm afraid she doesn't know what's happening in the empire right now."

Matt asked, changing the subject.

Hongye asked doubtfully, "Did anything particularly important happen in the empire?"

There are many galaxies within the empire, and many things happen every day, but there are only two things that are particularly important to the empire.

One is a cosmic event that could threaten the empire as a whole, and the other is a declaration of war by other countries.

Apart from that most incidents were minor.

Of course, Hongye knew why the patrol came so soon, but she was now acting as a runaway young lady and should show appropriate innocence and confusion.

Captain Matt replied:
"I'm not very clear about the specific situation. After all, I'm just a viscount. But... I heard from our legion commander that it seems that an important figure in the empire has been kidnapped. We need to find him."

"What kind of big shot? You don't even know?"

"It should be a big shot of the Sarnak family, because the kidnapped prince is a big shot with white hair and red eyes. We only need to conduct a simple physical examination to confirm the identity of that person."

Perhaps in order to please Hongye, Captain Matt told the truth.

After hearing Matt's news, Hongye did not show anything wrong, even though the 'big shot' Matt mentioned was right behind her. "That... there is no need for a physical examination. Captain, you should be able to see that my subordinates are not kidnappers, and they have nothing to do with big shots."

Hongye said in a half-joking tone.

Matt glanced at the two people behind Hongye, mainly observing their hair, and then looking at their eyes.

After confirming that the two did not have the family characteristics of the Sarnak family, Matt smiled and said:
"Of course, I believe that you, Miss Trey, have nothing to do with the kidnapper, but... this is my duty after all. I don't want to let the kidnapper go because of my negligence."

"..." Hongye's face instantly fell when she heard Matt say that.

Perhaps the nobles were very good at changing their expressions. Hongye's expression changed from sunny to cloudy in less than a second. She looked at Matt coldly and said:
"Captain Matt, for the sake of your dedication to duty, I will tell you straight out. The two people behind me are my bedmates, and one of them is even my designated lover. I don't want anyone to have contact with them. I think you can understand what I mean."

"!?"

Matt's expression changed when he heard this.

He could hear the coldness and threat in Hongye's words, and then turned to look at the two people behind Hongye.

Especially, he stayed on the boy who was relatively young in height and age for a long time.

After Hongye said this, the young man's face turned red and he lowered his head deeply, as if he didn't want others to see his shyness.

Matt understood one thing at that moment.

Why would the eldest daughter of the Trey family, who has the management rights of a planet, flee her own territory and come here?

Why were they robbed by pirate ships and encountered by them?

This is a classic drama of a rich girl falling in love with a poor boy! And this rich girl is planning to elope to the Irene Federation with her guards in order to court!

Thinking of this, Matt took a closer look at Miss Trey's 'lover' behind her.

It seems that he has not undergone any body remodeling surgery, and his face is pure natural. The way he lowers his head when shy is even more attractive. Even though Matt is a man, he can't help but have a good impression of him.

It is no wonder that Miss Trey would go to another country for love.

Turning to look at Hongye again, Matt was quite hesitant for a moment.

The people they are looking for are the kidnappers and the prince who was taken away by the kidnappers.

Regardless of whether it is the kidnapper or the prince, it should be impossible for them to appear here.

What's more, the prince has very conspicuous white hair, while the two people behind Miss Trey have black hair. Moreover, given the prince's status and position, how could he be willing to follow Miss Trey in this position...

Matt thought a lot in his mind, and he had even prepared for the worst, that is, the three people in front of him were the kidnappers who kidnapped His Highness.

But none of his speculations had any evidence to support them, let alone stand up to scrutiny.

Of course, the most crucial point is that Hongye is a noble. Based on her noble status alone, Matt can conclude that there is no problem with their identities.

Seeing that Matt seemed to be still hesitating, Hongye stepped forward and said:

"Besides, Captain Matt, you don't need to work so hard. I can see that your patrol team doesn't seem to take this matter too seriously. Otherwise... there would be more than just these people coming."

The structure of the Border Legion is quite large. With such a huge size, a small team extending below it can have thousands of people.

Among these thousands of people, most are ordinary mecha masters of around level three, and only a small number are level four mecha masters or mechanics, led by a level five strong man.

Normally, if the superiors really attach importance to the task assigned to them, they should all go out in full force, and the moment they board the ship, they will detain everyone and forcibly inspect them regardless of their identities.

At worst, I can let my superiors deal with the nobles' criticisms.

And now...

It is called a patrol team, but in reality the number of people here is only a quarter of that of a patrol team.

And most of the people were still on standby outside, only this fifth-level patrol captain entered here.

This means that the border troops here are not very serious about the tasks assigned by their superiors.

Otherwise, Matt, the patrol captain, would not have the time to build a good relationship with Hongye.

Although Hongye behaved a little silly in the Fuxing Society, that was because she was not familiar with the grassroots affairs.

As a noble, she had a decent political sense and could guess some things.

Sure enough, under Hongye's half-hard and half-soft attitude, Matt finally gave up checking the people Hongye brought. He slowly exhaled:
"…Miss Trey, I'm sorry, I was too reckless just now. I can assure you that you and your lover are fine, you can leave now."

"Thank you, Captain. By the way, I have one last small request."

"Please say."

"Please prepare a spaceship for me. I don't want to go home... Captain, you know that."

Hongye said this, holding the hand of the boy behind her in front of Matt, with a slightly happy smile on her face.
