Constance saw Callan's body crumbling.

Raphael held her firmly, then took her to the edge of the square, half-carrying her into the underground parking lot.

The surroundings were so chaotic, with military police, school security, and fire alarms rushing around, and students screaming one after another. Except for Constance, almost no one noticed this scene.

At this time, the underground parking lot.

"Are you okay?" Raphael asked from the driver's seat.

Karan closed his eyes and shook his head, looking very pale.

"We can get to the institute in five minutes." Raphael started the car and heard no response, "Karan? Talk to me and don't fall asleep."

Karan was still shaking his head in pain.

She felt a needle-like pain in her chest, and every pump of blood made her want to scream. But she couldn't move or make a sound.

"We'll be there soon, right away." Raphael continued to reassure him.

Rebecca's research institute is a research institute affiliated with the Medical College, just near the school. However, due to Bai Xuegong's attack, the passages within the school were blocked, and checkpoints were set up at the entrance and exit.

Raphael had a smooth ride and took nearly ten minutes to get to the institute.

On the other side, Constance got on his bicycle and nimbly shuttled among the crowd, and even followed them. He watched Raphael take Karan out of the car and take him to the research institute, and couldn't help but feel that he was on the other side.

I meditated for a long time under the trees on the street.

When Karan woke up again, it was already dark.

Raphael was on the phone by the window. When he saw her waking up, he immediately handed the phone to her.

He whispered: "It's father."

"...Check the media that reported the attack. If there are photos of her appearing, take them all down." On the phone, Siouvel's voice sounded calm, and he was still arranging tasks for Rafael.

"What happened to the attack?" Karan asked.

Raphael raised his eyebrows while holding the phone, gesturing for her to put it on speakerphone.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.

"Are you awake?" Xiovel's voice was slightly lower and his speaking speed was slow.

"Just woke up."

The other end tapped something anxiously, making a clicking sound.

Karan heard Siover say: "I will arrange the surgery when I return, so take a good rest first."

Then he hung up.

Raphael put away his phone and told Karan what happened before.

Karan suddenly fell ill after the attack, but luckily Raphael was also at the scene.

He drove her directly to the research institute. The doctors at the institute worked hard all afternoon and finally brought her back from the brink of death.

She now mainly relies on medication to control her condition, but this is not a long-term solution.

Sooner or later she will need surgery.

"I always said the surgery was too risky, so I didn't do it..." Karan raised his hand and pressed it lightly on his chest.

Raphael frowned slightly: "I heard that heart bypass surgery is now very mature."

"My situation is more complicated... The operation is very difficult. If you want to have a heart transplant, there is no source of organs. Even if you have one, you will still face a high risk of postoperative rejection. It is not a one-time solution."

The last time Siovel made a medical investment was to achieve technological breakthroughs in this area.

"I hope I can still wait." Karan opened his hand and slowly closed it.

A ray of sunset leaked through the curtains and finally disappeared into the night.

Karan suddenly raised his head and asked Raphael: "How did you find me?"

"This speech was organized by the student union." Raphael said flatly, "I'm just backstage... I have to complete some routine questions later."

Karan thought of something, and his heartbeat that had just calmed down suddenly accelerated again.

She looked at Raphael: "Could you..."

"Of course not me!" Raphael's stern look looked a lot like his father's, "I'm not stupid enough to assassinate Snow White! I still use a stupid sound device!"

Karan pressed his chest, and Raphael slowly lowered his voice.

"Before my father goes to the Republic... let me pay a little attention to you." He opened and closed his lips slightly, as if he didn't want to mention it, "I think I have fulfilled my duty. But he still sounded very angry, because Bai Xue

My father-in-law gave you a heart attack...literally."

Karan was amused by him.

"What? I never had a heart attack when I was with your father. Does he feel unbalanced?"

Raphael looked away uncomfortably.

Karan realized he still didn't like talking head-on about his father's relationship with her.

"Sorry." She immediately changed the subject, "Did you catch the attacker?"

"No, the security department is still looking for someone to question."

"What about Snow White's situation?"

"He was a little frightened, but other than that, he was unscathed. However, according to internal information, there was an explosive hidden in the speaker, but due to unknown reasons, it could not be detonated immediately. If it was detonated, it would definitely not be

Now this is the result.”

Karan heard Raphael's voice solemnly.

The Theovir family and Mephisdel Snow were mortal enemies, but Raphael did not take pleasure in this matter at all.

"Is this an attack on the royalists?" Karan asked sensitively.

"I don't know." Raphael's voice was as heavy as lead, "But in any case, this is not a good thing for us. There are some situations that you may not know... Nearly 80% of the political assassinations in the empire last year were caused by..."

"Planned by Thorn Bird Manor?" Karan asked.

Raphael shook his head: "It was planned by the Davis family."

This family, who was born as a pirate and once dominated the imperial fleet, is Xiovir's most powerful ally at present.

In accordance with Xiovir's request, they completed some things that were apparently impossible to do - protect allies, assassinate political figures, supply arms to the enemy's enemies, steal important military achievements of the Republic and use them in the Eastern Front War, and so on.

"In short, the Siouville family has a bad reputation in this regard." Raphael expressed his concern tactfully, "Last year the Dunant assassination occurred, and this year Mephisdel was attacked again at Capital University... I'm sure

There will be people making false claims. I don’t know what my father will tell the Queen and Parliament when he comes back..."

Karan said dryly: "Then you have to first determine whether he did it."

"He's in the Republic!"

Karan didn't think this was an alibi: "He definitely didn't throw the stereo down with his own hands."

Raphael was a little excited: "And I was backstage at the time! If the explosives in the speakers exploded, wouldn't I be dead..."

"You also have a twin brother."

"..."

Raphael's expression was very hard.

Karan didn't know if he was suspicious, she could never read Raphael's thoughts.

After a while, Raphael looked down at his watch and said goodbye to her: "Okay, the security department is still waiting to question me. You can rest first."

Karan stayed at the institute for one night and went to school as usual the next day.

Rebecca tried to keep her, but she knew that hospitalization and taking medicine could only stabilize her condition to this extent. Without surgery, even if she did nothing and lay in the hospital bed, she would still be in danger.

It's better to go to class.

"Karan, can I talk to you?" After the experimental class, Constance blocked her next to the toilet again.

Karan remembered that she went to listen to the speech with him yesterday, but then an attack occurred and they were separated, and she did not report that they were safe.

"Sorry, I didn't feel well yesterday, so I left first."

"That's not it." Constance's face, which always kept a smile, had a hint of depth, "I saw Siovel taking you into the car."

"Oh..." Karan was stunned for a moment and didn't realize that the "Xiovel" he was talking about meant "Raphael Xiovel".

She cleared her throat: "We met in the student union. I was not feeling well, and he sent me to see a doctor..."

Constance knew she was lying.

She joined the student union this semester.

And he heard Raphael's voice appearing at her home through the phone as early as during the summer vacation.

Constance spread his hands as if he were relaxed: "Are you a noble? You know... Xiovir never comes into contact with worthless people."

"I'm not a noble." Karan found it difficult to explain, "Why do you ask so carefully?"

Constance had never looked at her with such a cold look: "Because now you are a member of the 'Tower of Babel', I have to protect the society from infiltration."
