Chapter 515: Cardeas' Request

"Hmm? Senator Cruze? You're not..."

"General Gepu and General Rebir are old, and they need to take a break because there are so many guests at the banquet."

"I see. Congratulations to Senator Cruze."

"I don't deserve it. It's just that the two generals are kind enough to chat with me for a while."

"Isn't that also the ability of Senator Cruze?"

"Thank you. I think Mr. Yang Hui has a good relationship with the two generals."

"The two generals are not ignorant people. Their clear eyes can naturally see things that others can't see."

"Sure enough, I have never believed the rumors from the outside world. Today, I talked with Mr. Yang Hui and confirmed that my vision is correct."

"It seems that Mr. Cruze also has a pair of clear eyes. Senator Cruze, please."

"Please."

The two raised their glasses and clinked them, took a sip, and showed a little respect.

The two were like strangers who met for the first time. There was a distance and courtesy in the conversation, but only the two of them knew that with such polite and distant words, they had achieved their goals.

It was mainly Cruze's report. He had a very happy chat with Gepu and Rebil. The two of them were also optimistic about him as a rising star in the political arena. Although they were only optimistic and would not express their support for him, this was a good start. There was still a long way to go before the two elderly and experienced generals could clearly support him.

Yang Hui told Cruze implicitly that his cooperation with Gepu and Rebil was going smoothly and his plan would not be hindered.

"Aslan, He, come here."

Aslan and Cong Yunhe came to Yang Hui and bowed slightly.

"I also want to thank Mr. Yang Hui for speaking out for justice. It is a small matter for my reputation to be damaged. It would be bad if it ruined Mr. Cardeas' birthday party."

"Since they are guests, as the host, we naturally have to treat them with courtesy."

After chatting casually for a few words, Cruze took Aslan and Cong Yunhe away from the balcony. He and Yang Hui were not acquainted with each other now. If they stayed together for a long time, it would inevitably cause bad speculation.

Besides, it was getting late, and the banquet was coming to an end. Some guests had already said goodbye and left. Not long after, the host and the guests had a good time, and the servants had to clean up the mess. Cardeas called Yang Hui to his study alone to talk about what happened before the banquet.

"When did you know?" Cardeas asked Yang Hui with a sullen face.

"It's been a while. It's not difficult to find out." Yang Hui shrugged and gave a fabricated reason. "The Bister family rose from my grandfather, and my grandfather rose too fast. Overnight, he created a huge Bister family out of thin air. He jumped from a maintenance worker to the founder of the Bister Consortium and conquered a huge empire. This is obviously problematic."

"...Continue."

"Although my grandfather has been constantly erasing his past experiences after he came to power, as long as he did it, there will be traces. It is impossible to completely disappear. Focus on investigating the things during that period, and then follow the clues..."

"Kacha~"

Cartiers suddenly took out a pistol from the desk and pointed it at Yang Hui. There was no need to listen anymore. He had already judged that Yang Hui did not hear any gossip from someone, but had indeed found out the secrets of the Bister family.

As the head of the family, considering the interests of the family, Cartiers had to take some compulsory measures...

"Haha, I bet you don't have bullets in your gun." Yang Hui smiled easily and comfortably, walked aside, poured himself a cup of black tea, and then drank it.

"...You are destroying the Biester family." Cardias said in a deep voice.

"Really? How to destroy? Just rely on that broken stone tablet?"

"That secret will subvert the Federation..."

"Nonsense, subvert the Federation, you think too highly of that stone tablet." Yang Hui smiled disdainfully. Why do the people of the Biester family think that the original text of the "Universal Century Charter" has the ability to subvert the Federation?

In a word, it is fake, and I don't admit it!

What if it is made public?

"...You don't know..."

"NT."

"Yang Hui! Don't say any more!" Cardias was horrified. He had actually been making excuses for himself, convincing himself that Yang Hui didn't know much and there was still room for redemption, but Yang Hui himself said a lot of facts that he didn't even dare to dream of, for fear that he would accidentally let it slip in his sleep.

If Yang Hui really knew everything, then as the head of the family, he must be ruthless...

"Is the current NT certain?" Yang Hui asked Cardias calmly.

"...I said..."

"Answer me, Cardeas, do you have a confirmed NT now?"

"...No."

"Then what are you worried about?"

"You mean...rule it out in advance?"

"Am I so dark in your eyes?" Yang Hui rolled his eyes. To be honest, the decline of the Bist family in UC0096 was not without reason. When encountering trouble, Cardeas's idea was to use these shameful means. Don't you know that if you do this too much, you can still cover it up when you are powerful, but once you are liquidated, it will be a powerful bomb?

And now the Bist family is at the top of the federation, and its industries are deeply rooted in every aspect of people's lives. To put it bluntly, if the Bist family is in turmoil, the federation will tremble.

As the head of such a family, can't your ideas be more open and aboveboard? Isn't it good to be open and aboveboard? Always like to use the conspiracy and tricks of the upper table?

"What do you mean?"

"What I want to say is...there are no NTs in the Federation?"

"Uh..." Cardeas was stunned for a moment, then thought about it...it seems to be true. In theory, NTs are evolved by humans to adapt to the cosmic environment, and the Federation also has people in the universe. According to the theory, new humans may also appear.

"But these new humans...are not the time bombs that subvert the Federation?"

"Are you saying that these NTs will impact the interests of the current top leaders?"

"Yes, you know NT..."

"What if someone in the top leaders is NT?"

"Uh...is this possible?" Cardeas doubted. After all, most of the core top leaders are in their seventies and eighties, and they stay in the comfortable environment of the earth all year round. Is it possible for them to evolve?

"Opportunities are equal, aren't they?" Yang Hui spread his hands and only said that there was such a situation, but did not give a definite answer.

But he knew very well that this situation really happened. Rebil was NT...it should be said that he would become NT in the future. He sensed something that the radar and reconnaissance team did not find. If this is not NT, what is it?

To put it bluntly, if Rebil hadn't died, the remnants of Zeon in the Delaz Fleet might have been wiped out before they had time to formulate the [Star Wars], and the Titans would have been impossible to establish. Naturally, there would have been no outbreak of the [Grimps War], and the new Zeon led by Hamman might not even dare to return, let alone a lot of bad things that happened later.

As long as Rebil didn't die, the Federation was as stable as Mount Tai, and this statement was not just for show.

In this case, what if the original text of the "Universal Century Charter" was exposed? Rebil, the NT, was already at the top, how could it be overturned?

Moreover, Rebil was not the kind of pedantic person. He had a very gentle view of the NT, and did not regard them as tools or experimental guinea pigs. What's wrong with capable people being competent for higher positions?

"... No, you can't convince me."

"So what? Do you want me to follow my father's old path?" Yang Hui smiled playfully.

Cardeas and Yang Hui's father, the previous head of the Bist family, was secretly executed by their grandfather, Sayam Bist, after he learned about the [Laplace Box], the original text of the "Universal Century Charter", the biggest secret of the Bist family.

And the reason why Cardeas felt extremely stressed was also because of this reason. He knew this secret and knew that his father was secretly executed by his grandfather.

And now, he may have to use the same attitude towards Yang Hui...

"I said, there is no bullet in your gun." Yang Hui smiled. This is not a joke, but Yang Hui's confirmation.

How much does Yang Hui know about weapons? When a gun is loaded, there is a difference in the sound of whether there is a bullet or an empty chamber. It is very subtle, but Yang Hui can hear it.

"..." Cardeas stared at Yang Hui, and finally sighed, and put the pistol without bullets back into the drawer, "My gun doesn't have it, but others have it."

"My gun also has it."

Assassination? Haha, has Yang Hui never experienced assassination?

Yes! And a lot!

Not only assassination, but also intimidation, threats, kidnapping, etc. No matter how well-known he is in the outside world, he is a member of the Bister family. There are countless people who want to use his identity to get something from the Bister family.

But what? Has anyone succeeded?

Not once, not only did they fail, but they were all killed in return. The people behind the scenes either disappeared or ceded land and paid compensation, and signed many "humiliating" treaties.

As for the assassination of the Bister family... Hehe, Yang Hui dared to say that he was the only one who could deal with others in the Bister family, and others wanted to make trouble for him? It's a fuss!

He is over a hundred years old, and he has lived three lives. He has been the leader of a secret organization, a heroic leader in the military, and a leader of a country. It is not easy for a small Bister family to arrange manpower?

Yang Hui was thinking, if he told Cardeas that everyone around him except Jarl Zhang was Yang Hui's people, what kind of expression would Cardeas have?

"......Hey, Yang Hui, can you ..."

"No." Yang Hui knew what Cardeas was going to say and interrupted him directly, "I need that stone tablet, I must get it."

"......Grandfather will never agree." Cardeas knew how much his grandfather feared the exposure of [Laplace's Box], otherwise he would not have secretly executed his own son.

"I will make him agree."

"......I don't know what you are planning, Yang Hui, but...I only have one request, no, it's a request, don't hurt the Bist family." Cardeas knew that he couldn't stop his brother who he couldn't see through since he was a child. Although he was the head of the family, he knew very well that if Yang Hui wanted to control the Bist family, he could do it without any effort. He just wasn't interested.

Therefore, even though he was the head of the family, he could only use the word "request" to Yang Hui.

"There may be a little impact." Yang Hui stood up and prepared to leave. When he walked to the door, he stopped and said to Cardeas, "But it's the family that has raised me for more than 20 years, isn't it?"
