I Married a Commander and Became a Galaxy Star

Chapter 182: Chapter 134: In This World... Magic Actually Exists?

The Shu Family residence.

Yawning repeatedly, Shu Chao Yu carried Xiao Juzi to the bathroom to pee.

His once-taut tail drooped limply. Zaizai shivered with relief, and a sleepy, child-like voice emerged from his pouty lips:

”Hasn’t Mama come back yet?”

”She came back, she came back,” Shu Xin’s voice drifted in from the doorway. ”She went to school with Ke.”

With a POOF, Xiao Juzi transformed into a cat in his grand-uncle’s arms. ”I want to go to school and find Mama. Mama said I could go if I’m like this~”

His face etched with exhaustion, Shu Chao Yu said, ”That was yesterday. Yesterday is over.”

”No! I won’t!” Xiao Juzi threw a tantrum in his arms, his fluffy paws scratching and clawing as he flailed wildly. ”I’m going! I’m going! I haven’t seen Mama all night!”

”Alright, alright, alright! You’re my little overlord, you know that?!” Shu Chao Yu conceded, but with a clever caveat. ”How about we call your mama first? If she says it’s okay, I’ll take you.”

Xiao Juzi stopped his tantrum but continued to pout unhappily.

Seeing he’d been swayed, Shu Chao Yu struck while the iron was hot. ”Your grand-uncle used to be a student at your mama’s school, so I know where it is. I won’t take you to the wrong place.”

’Provided Mama agrees, of course~’

”I know~” Xiao Juzi said. ”Yesterday, Mama and I even took a picture with you at the Wall of Honor~”

His heart melted at those words. Shu Chao Yu pressed his forehead against Xiao Juzi’s small, fluffy head and rubbed it affectionately.

Shu Chao Yu ordered his Light Brain to contact Shu Yao, but the response he received was:

”Master, your Big Treasure is not in a service area~”

The Light Brain’s cute voice made his heart sink.

He tried contacting her again, only to receive the same prompt.

Xiao Juzi sensed something was wrong and asked anxiously, ”Grand-uncle, why isn’t Mama picking up?”

Seeing tears welling up in Zaizai’s eyes, Shu Chao Yu’s heart softened. He put on a smile and said, ”Your mama might be in an exam. The school has a rule that you can’t use your Light Brain during tests.”

Hearing this, Shu Xin started to speak but then stopped herself. Flustered, she slipped away to a corner and used her Light Brain to contact Shu Yao, but she received the same prompt as Shu Chao Yu.

’It’s true the school uses devices to block students’ Light Brain signals during exams. But what time is it now? It’s the crack of dawn, it’s not even time for class yet!’

’Besides, based on the schedule, Shu Yao and Ke Dancheng should be on their way to the Imperial Hospital right now.’

Shu Xin realized Shu Chao Yu had probably just said that to soothe Xiao Juzi.

”Sis. You and Xiao Juzi play at home. I’m off to work.”

Shu Chao Yu handed the task of watching Xiao Juzi over to Shu Xin, threw on some clothes, and left without washing his face or brushing his teeth, looking completely disheveled.

He didn’t look like he was going to work at all.

Before he was even out the door, Shu Chao Yu contacted Ma on an encrypted channel. His tone was grave. ”Ma, I need you to locate my niece.”

Ma yawned and lazily named his price: ”One omurice.”

”Ten!”

Hearing Shu Chao Yu’s rare generosity, Ma instantly realized the gravity of the situation.

He immediately scrambled up, sat in front of his screen, and began typing rapidly.

A minute later, watching video footage of a Flying Machine’s tail being shot through before it made an emergency landing, he muttered in frustration:

”Fuck!”

Ma immediately sent the Flying Machine’s crash location to Shu Chao Yu.

”Mr. Yu, this is big!” His tone was solemn. ”Some bastard shot through our niece’s Flying Machine! The person should be okay; I saw the safety cabin eject! The signal in that whole area is being jammed. I suspect the other party is either the Imperial Family or the Austin family! This is all I can do to help!”

Shu Chao Yu’s expression changed instantly. He thanked Ma in a deep voice, ”Thanks!”

As he passed his neighbor’s electronic door, he suddenly stopped, walked over, and rang the bell.

The voice of First Generation came through the intercom: ”Hello, sir.”

Shu Chao Yu asked gravely, ”Is Ah Bao in?”

First Generation replied, ”Master left twenty minutes ago.”

Shu Chao Yu’s eyebrows shot up as he commented in displeasure, ”His wife is in mortal danger, and he still has the nerve to go to work?!”

An abandoned building complex.

”If you know what’s good for you, get the hell out!”

Antoine glared at Shu Yao, his gaze bone-chilling. A low, heavy growl rumbled in his throat, and his brown hair seemed to fly up in a wild rage.

A lazy, unrestrained smile played on Shu Yao’s lips. She glanced at the wrecked Mecha nearby and asked lightly, ”You want to retrieve the evidence and destroy it? Do you really think I’d give you that chance?”

Antoine was stunned for a moment, then he let out a laugh of amusement. ”Woman, do you not understand the situation you’re in?”
