"Old Man, I'm heeere!!!" Su Ye's Dragon Roar rang out right on schedule.
Pushing open the door to Old Man's office, Su Ye found him seated inside, handling documents.
"You're here?" Old Man looked at Su Ye.
Su Ye nodded. He still remembered that the Empire was going to place some things into the Prison of Heaven today, and he was rather curious about what exactly they were.
"You came at the right time. People over in the Island Country are already starting to suspect you." Old Man spoke softly as he looked at Su Ye.
Su Ye's pupils contracted as he looked at Old Man.
"Suspect me? On what grounds?" Su Ye took a deep breath, unable to understand.
Old Man looked at Su Ye. "Sometimes, evidence isn't necessary. And if you look at it from another angle, this was bound to happen."
"As the saying goes, if you stand by the river often enough, your shoes will get wet eventually. In the end, you made too much of a mess this time."
"The Island Country needs someone to take the blame right now. You just happened to fall under suspicion, so they tacitly decided to pin it on you. You could call it a lucky guess."
Su Ye: ?????
"Old Man, are you saying they suspect me just so they can dump the blame on me?"
"Mm. At least half of it is for that reason. Of course, there's another reason: wherever you go, something happens. It's too much of a coincidence. And when there are too many coincidences, it becomes inevitable," Old Man said quietly.
Su Ye: !!!!!
Fine, then. He had never expected to see the day when someone would make him take the fall. How did they dare?
"They don't want the Genetic Potion anymore?"
