Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen

638 Unsettled Waves Yarin's POV:

Nobody mentioned punishing Heller and me. Dad and Mom didn't seem to care about our willfulness anymore. Although they would still ask us questions about this, they were not angry at all.

The police and soldiers had successfully captured all the Lily of the Valley members in the garbage disposal plant. If they hadn't investigated, they wouldn't have known. After investigating, they discovered that nearly a third of the workers in the garbage disposal plant were members of the Lily of the Valley, or had already been instigated by them. Even I broke out in a cold sweat when I heard this. I wondered if the officials of the Silver Moon Pack had already gone crazy from anxiety.

I wasn't surprised that this incident led to thoroughly investigating the entire Silver Moon Pack.

The three people who kidnapped me were still alive.

Marty was lucky he didn't die. It was said that the medical staff, under the instructions of the higher-ups, did everything they could to save his life. He seemed to be the main point of contact with the Lily of the Valley in the Silver Moon Pack, and he carried a lot of precious information, so even if he wanted to die, it was impossible.

Tilda and Ram were not that important. One was a killer, and the other was a cleaner. However, what awaited them was trial and conviction.

However, this was far from over. According to the results of the interrogation over the past few days, the Moonlight Festival incident, the square explosion, and the car accident were not done by the same group of people.

The Lily of the Valley House's minions caused the square's explosion. Some of them had already died at their people's hands, and more had been successfully captured. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍．𝒏𝒆𝒕

This group would never admit that they were behind the Moonlight Festival incident and the car accident. According to them, these were the actions of higher-ranking officers, and they were not qualified to know.

Combined with Lily's testimony, the chances of these people telling the truth were very high.

Based on what she had heard then, the leader was a young man, the same as the confession of the criminals.

"So I didn't catch Kara's murderer in the end." I couldn't help but feel disappointed when I learned the truth.

My mom comforted me gently, "Don't blame yourself, Yarin. You've done well. You're smarter and more courageous than most people."

"But I'm still rash and childish. I don't care about anything when I'm impulsive." I couldn't hide my embarrassment. "Whenever I think I'm right, I always end up falling."

This made my parents realize I was behaving abnormally, so I told them everything about my situation.

"The mimicry seems to have failed. I tried making the wound fuse, but no cell would listen. And the bullet in my body inexplicably disappeared-"

"Bullets?" My parents immediately became nervous. "You were shot? But, the doctor did not find anything."

"This is also what I am puzzled about. I am sure that the three bullets are in my body, but not only can I not feel them, but the medical equipment also can't detect them."

My parents took this very seriously and immediately called the doctor and a werewolf grandmaster to diagnose me.

"We've checked the machine many times, but we didn't find any problems." Craig frowned at the report. "This is the third scan, but we still didn't find anything that looked like a bullet in His Highness."

"Could it be that the bullet isn't made of metal?" I asked. "Maybe it's some kind of substance with a low melting point or fluid?"

Craig shook his head. "We have considered this, but ice can't withstand the temperature and pressure of shooting. We didn't find any other suspicious substances in your test report."

"It's been two days. Maybe it's already been digested…"

Yes, I'd been unconscious for two days and two nights. It was not like I had just slept. My circulatory system was completely normal, so the bullet might have been discharged.

The urine bag had already been sent for testing. The three bullets might become a permanent mystery if nothing could be found in it.

Actually, from my point of view, these three bullets didn't cause any damage other than worrying me, so it wasn't impossible to let them go.

However, my parents and Heller objected, so I had to drop it.

Heller and I stayed in the same ward again.

"Is Sisley still unreachable?" I asked.

Heller shrugged.

In the afternoon, Alfred came to visit us.

"I am glad you are safe, Your Highness," he said. "Your disappearance has caused the Queen and the King Consort to be distraught. Fortunately, the outcome is satisfactory."

I blushed at the mention of this. After regaining my rationality, I was too embarrassed to face this again.

However, he brought me bad news: Lily was missing.

"I suspected she had snuck out to look for you," Alfred said worriedly. "But you were unconscious, so I think she left on her own. Sigh, actually, I understand that she's not comfortable at home. It's just that it's very chaotic outside now. I'm terrified that something might happen to her!"

No, Alfred was right. Lily should have come to look for me, just like we had agreed.

But she didn't know where I was. My parents had also suppressed the news that I was injured and hospitalized again. How would she find me?
