It was because of this that Su Tu sensed something was wrong.

When Su Tu was a child, Su Qingping loved fishing and often found excuses and reasons to go fishing, but every time he was caught by Su Tu's mother.

Su Qingping never knew why he was caught, and even Su Tu was curious about how his mother could see through his lies with 100% accuracy.

Later, Su Tu's mother revealed the reason to him.

It was that whenever Su Qingping was lying, he would never directly answer the question, but would instead use this kind of rhetoric to express himself indirectly.

Just like earlier.

"Why would Dad lie to me? Logically, he shouldn't be hiding anything from me..."

Su Tu frowned.

Su Qingping was the kind of open-minded father who never made decisions for his children under the guise of it being for their own good.

For instance, Su Tu was previously the top liberal arts student in the entire school, even the whole city, with such grades he could easily get into any liberal arts program at the Ten Great Academies.

Yet, he chose to apply for the military exam instead. In such a situation, most parents would not support his decision, considering the difference between a sure bright future and a future that, although brilliant, holds uncertain outcomes.

Thinking about it, every Chinese parent would have an answer.

But after knowing Su Tu applied for the military exam, Su Qingping merely asked him to be careful and expressed his full support.

This already demonstrated what kind of person Su Qingping was.

But why, in this matter, would Dad deceive him? What exactly does he know...

Su Tu found it somewhat elusive, and at this moment, he looked in front of himself.

It was as if he traversed through time and space, seeing a young boy carved from jade, both gazing faintly at each other across a dozen years.

A breeze blew by, sunlight from the outside window fell on Su Tu, and at some unknown moment, the child's figure was no longer there, leaving only Su Tu alone, a hint of an indescribable expression appeared on his handsome face.

He turned his head and looked out the window, where a graceful starship was drifting leisurely across the sky.

At this moment, no one knew what Su Tu was truly thinking.

Ninth Relic Star.

In the laboratory, Su Qingping stood in front of the optical micro-particle projector, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

"Xiao Tu, why would he ask this question?"

"Is it a joke? Or did he find out something..."

"He probably wouldn't, he shouldn't remember anything, he wasn't chosen, he shouldn't recall anything!"

"Yes, he can't remember, can't remember! He just likes to joke with me..."

Su Qingping comforted himself within his heart.

But the restless emotions in his heart could not be suppressed no matter what.

At that moment, an urgent and delighted voice rang in Su Qingping's ear.

"Qingping!! Qingping!! Don't just stand there, quickly look at the records, did the gene slice move just now?!!"

An ecstatic lab technician in a white coat looked at Su Qingping.

It was only then that Su Qingping pressed down his emotions and walked to the in-brain computer, observing the records closely.

After three seconds, his expression slightly changed, and he began to adjust the playback speed of the records, slowing it down by ten times. Only then did he see, in the light screen, a piece of black cell moved slightly.

Instantly, the expressions of everyone in the lab turned incredibly excited.

"My god!!! There's still activity in that guy's genes!"

"OMG, this is simply unbelievable, does it mean he's still alive?"

"This is too incredible, based on our investigation, the relic of that guy has been buried for at least five thousand years, meaning if he's still alive, he has been sleeping for five thousand years!!"

"If he truly is alive, this discovery could fundamentally change humanity's current understanding of the cosmic humanities!"

The staff were overjoyed; if all this were true, their names would not only be printed in textbooks but earn them unimaginably generous bonuses.

However, unlike everyone else who was excited, Su Qingping's gaze turned incredibly sharp at this moment.

His eyes looked to the other side, piercing through heavily secured alloy Sealed Demon Gates, he saw a huge display cabinet.

Inside the cabinet was an enormous and somewhat exaggerated piece of amber, within was an 'individual' clad in broken armor.

This was a creature they dug out from the deepest part of the relic star; from its form, it resembled the Human Race to some extent, but the difference was that this creature's forehead protruded outward in two spots, as if possessing two flesh horns.

They had seven fingers on each hand, and their tangled hair was as hard and sharp as spikes, reportedly cutting through a protective suit when someone accidentally touched it.

In the moment of being unearthed, the creature's body began to age rapidly and wither until Su Qingping reacted quickly enough to use a vacuum-sealed amber to encase it, stopping the decay and successfully containing it.

In the entire history of the Star River, there were no records of this creature, and based on its appearance, the Federation suspected it had significant connections to the history of the Human Race.

Hence, it was classified as high-level confidential information, with orders for all scientific personnel to fully research and investigate the creature.

Now, with genetic activity found in this creature's gene slice, it was naturally an enormously good sign, but Su Qingping instinctively felt uneasy.

"I must be overthinking this; it indeed is a good thing. If any breakthrough comes out of this research, maybe the bonus will be enough to buy a villa in Celestial City Star."
