"No, I'm just scanning the surrounding environment based on the floor plan given by the general to ensure that if he has any malicious intentions or ambushes, I can respond immediately. If he wants to escape, several exits can also be covered by Hinashi Shinkaku in the first place."
"...Captain, it seems that we are not well prepared."
"Ok?"
"If you're the one who initiates the conversation, how do you start the conversation without alerting the other person?"
"There is indeed something fishy about his identity. Even if he didn't bring the star core in, Luo Fu is almost certain to arrest him based on the reason that the 'pass document' is invalid. This is the 'talking point' and intervention point given to us by Si Duo. In addition, the special forces prepared by the general for us will soon enter the battlefield."
Sora glanced towards the lobby. A light pink and brown ponytail emerged from behind the rockery. The selfie stick held high was like a unique flag announcing the arrival of its owner.
"Family, this is Youxia Ting! The most mysterious and high-end hotel in Luofu where many important people gather!"
"Xiao Guizi, if they are all important people, isn't it inappropriate for us to take pictures like this..."
It seemed like it was not the time for her to help her sisters. After several setbacks, Leo finally understood what propriety meant and shrugged his shoulders without any chivalrous spirit.
If the meeting place had not been set here, she would have had to avoid suspicion for a few days under Sister You's advice after her little trick was exposed.
She still remembered clearly how the company representatives bowed and nod to her and the villagers last night - needless to say, it was definitely the Doctor's secret efforts. Apart from Kong, she really couldn't think of anyone else who had such power to make those guys who easily bought one-third of the shops change their attitude 180 degrees.
And corresponding to her ecstasy of having solved a major problem, before the expedition, the guard patted her shoulder with a complicated expression, as if sending a child out to catch wolves, and told her to "work hard and remember to tell me if you have any difficulties." The huge difference in attitude before and after also made her grumble even more.
I always feel that Xiaowei has misunderstood something, and the boss who is carrying out the mission today has become General Jingyuan's guard. Although they are all Xiaowei, the different identities mean that she has been promoted in a sense -
She was a little naive, but she knew clearly how important the command was in the Yunqi Army.
"Don't worry, I've confirmed with the receptionist that you can take photos in the lobby, but you have to use AI to automatically filter out guests marked as 'unpublished portraits' by Yu Zhao."
Gui Naifen, who is full of wisdom, had already considered some of her bestie's concerns - but it seems that she had not considered them thoroughly enough:
"Oh my, technology is really changing our lives. I've been hanging around in Jinren Lane for so long, and I didn't know that rich people could mosaic their faces in advance."
"Well, I hope everything goes well. Why don't I see Brother Yanqing? Hey, look for □＿蜀群：哵◇｝５七≯榴⒍"4＠4⒉Isn't that...the doctor?"
"Aren't you still working as a bodyguard for him? Go and say hello. He has helped us so much—"
"No, the assignment for this mission... is a bit special..."
Little Li repeatedly signaled Little Guizi to lower his voice: "When I was giving you the task, Brother Yanqing specifically mentioned that you can wait nearby and do your live broadcast normally, but if the situation changes, it will be automatically cut off. Remember?"
"Of course I remember. This is a great opportunity to take close-up photos of the 'Unconventional Cloud Riders' enforcing the law. I'm not surprised if there are any restrictions!"
No, it should be said that the only restriction is the strangest thing. He didn't even ask you not to talk nonsense, nor did he limit your specific range of activities...
Su Chang's single-threaded brain was working rapidly at this time, and in the end she only came to the conclusion that she was the hook in "the hook is straight and the bait is salty" and Gui Naifen was the bait, but who was she trying to catch specifically?
It can't be that he is trying to catch a doctor, right?
...Before Luofu broke off contact with Qing, Suyi said that it was okay to send her own daughter as a child, but she had to be a war hero and have a biological mother.
And the doctor just meets her mother's indulgent requirements for her mate -
Su Chang, who was disabled in both civil and military affairs, had no awareness of the advantages of her figure and appearance. It was only after Sister You mentioned it to her at the dinner table and asked her and Gui Naifen to be careful and reserved when "returning" to the doctor that she was finally sure - the previous arrangement for her to be the "receptionist" was indeed a trick by the Yunqi side to win over the doctor independently of the Tianbo Division and the Ten Kings Division.
As for Taibushi, even Taibushi himself went into battle... How exaggerated.
But today, there is no sinister sister... nor the fox sister. Do you want to give it a try? There may not be any benefits to establishing this relationship, but there must be no harm, right?
Most ordinary girls would be intimidated by the beautiful girls around Kong, but Su Chang really liked that atmosphere. Seeing that Gui Naifen was still taking pictures of the hotel's equipment, which looked restrained in appearance but was actually extremely luxurious, she subconsciously moved closer to Kong, who was emitting black energy.
...No, Su Shang, you can even fall into the trap of "three arrows for one, ten arrows for three", not to mention sticking to the doctor. People think you are a fool!
After some self-denial, she shook her head and decided to get along with Kong normally, starting with thanking him for preventing the company's violent merger.
In order to avoid being awkward, she thought carefully about how to say the polite words so as to express enough gratitude without being flattering.
She put on what she thought was a perfect smile, but in fact it was just a silly smile, emitting clear stupidity and moved towards the tea table.
But Kong seemed to be aware of her approaching, and suddenly turned around and glared at her, his eyes filled with a kind of "aggression" that she had never seen before.
So, is it like this to be stared at with longing eyes? It's exciting, but it seems a bit too exciting, right? It's like there's murderous intent...
Su Chang's whole body shuddered, and she put her legs together. If she didn't clamp them together, the ferocious glare from before would have scared her to the point of sitting down like a duck. The greeting that was about to come out of her mouth was like a heavy punch and was knocked back into her stomach.
Not only Su Chang, Xiao Guizi, who was also planning to send a lively greeting to Bakong, had her eyes blurred for a moment and the corners of her lips trembled when she was hit like a wall.
She is not as naive as Leo, and she can't tell the difference between a look of love and a look of desire to hate someone.
Could it be that our attempt to show affection has been exposed? But, but didn't he reject Tingyun and Jackdaw's advances before? He should be a typical carnivore man -
Or maybe he was offended by the fact that we used his reputation to intimidate the company representatives?
“Bo…”
"Miss Suchang? Why are you having a convulsion? Is it because the hidden injury you suffered a few days ago hasn't healed yet?"
"Ok?"
While both of them were stunned by the mental wall, the person who was actually hit by the wall that was mostly blocked by them finally spoke elegantly.
"…Rakshasa? You still live here?"
Although she was very concerned about the meaning of Kong's aggressive look, Su Chang felt her whole body lighten when the magic weapon in the golden hair dealer's hand emitted green light, and her knees, which had been slightly wet and cold, stopped trembling.
"I gave you a simple treatment. Strangely, this doesn't seem to be a spasm caused by muscle strain. It's more like a neurological one—"
The handsome and elegant blond man put away his magic weapon, and was about to give a business-like smile to the girl in front of him who had traveled with him on the Cloud Riders. However, his eyes blurred, and the anchor and Su Chang were instantly pulled away from behind. In their place was a short and thick thing with a caliber of nearly 40 mm, which could be called a cannon, almost touching his forehead, and a set of extremely wide and tall yellow power armor -
蒐∧〗索々※Q群∮:⑵⑷０※． ⑷⑶◇'⑹￥． ⑷"…What did you do to her?"
The Primaris Kong was not so nervous that his muscles were tense - he was restraining his urge to pull the trigger. Even the extremely calm thinking mode of the Space Marine had to use all the muscles in his body to fight against the infinitely expanding murderous intent.
"...My little medical skills may not be very popular in Luofu. I am rude..."
Luosha, who was being pointed at by a gun, didn't even see how Kong moved over - so he wasn't even afraid of the black muzzle of the gun, and was still a little confused.
"Don't move!"
Hiding behind the rockery to observe the situation, the young man in Yanyun swordsman uniform murmured in panic and quickly jumped out with his sword in hand.
What's the point of testing or tricking? Isn't this just arresting people?
Yan Qing really likes Kong's straightforward and resolute approach. This is the way to deal with the criminals who are causing trouble for the Xianzhou. The general still has too many concerns! Instead, he didn't follow the doctor's thinking -
Before he launched plan number two, Liu Yun and Lao Yang also stepped back to protect Gui Naifen and Su Chang - Lao Yang's cane was against Luosha's elbow, his eyes were no less fierce than Lao Yang's, while the chill of Shen He Xi Zai climbed up Luosha's earlobes to his hair from behind, freezing half of his face.
"...You are the kid sent by Jing Yuan, right? Go and seal off the lobby to prevent him from colluding with the outside world." Kong pouted at Yan Qing, and then signaled Liu Yun to take the frightened Gui Naifen and Su Shang away from here -
"Without any outside help, I have moved into the Yuxi Court alone, waiting for an opportunity to surrender myself... But I mean no offense, Bo Lushi - you seem to have a preconceived hostility towards me."
Rakshasa raised his hands helplessly.
He had thought of many situations where he might come into conflict with Kong, but he never expected to be threatened when he thought he had understood the other party's attitude.
"According to the laws of Xianzhou, even if I am a mercenary, the good things you have done are enough for me to blow your head off on the spot without reporting to the general, so be careful with your words and don't let me hear anything that I am not satisfied with."
"Family, family, hello, Xiao Guizi, it seems like you have been involved in some serious incident—"
"… Just cut her off during the live broadcast, don't make things worse."
427. Is there Kallen in your coffin?
An encounter with ulterior motives eventually turned into a arrest due to Kong and Lao Yang's improper handling.
Luosha's calm attitude was not at all like that of a criminal who brought the star core disaster to Luofu. Both his speech and behavior were quite like that of Apokalys.
He didn't know that this polite gesture between merchants to win favor and ease the atmosphere could easily irritate the sensitive nerves of the two veterans opposite. He was ready to talk it out in the lobby, but the moment he put down his raised hands, an empty bolter came down from above and hit his shoulder, knocking him off balance, and he was stunned.
"You are Jing Yuan's guard, right? Please arrange for us to have the meeting room we used the day before yesterday, as soon as possible."
"Hey, okay!"
Yan Qing, who was flying a sword and pointing it at Luosha, shot him in the air. He thought that special means would be used for "interrogation" next, but the doctor suddenly made a 180-degree turn, leaving the child a little confused.
This transition from extreme movement to extreme stillness was like the rapid cooling of a schizophrenia, and also made Luosha's eyes looking at Kong less mercenary than a traveling merchant, and more resilient like a "knight".
He climbed up while holding the left button, and became more serious under Sora's cold gaze:
"If this is the punishment you give me for Luofu's misfortune, I am willing to accept it, but please listen to my reasons for doing all this."
6 "I will listen, but this is not Luo Fu's punishment for you. I just need to calm down first. If your explanation does not satisfy me and the general, I will put a bomb into your skull next time."
The smell of gunpowder is still strong, but reason has regained its upper hand.
毶 "…Have we met before, Doctor?"
4. “Who knows?”
siThis ambiguous answer made Luosha silent for a few seconds.
2 Before he spoke again, Leo's weak voice sounded from behind him:
Looking for "You must be kidding, right? Mr. Luosha, are you an interstellar criminal?"
"Well, that's a serious accusation... not really at this point."
Facing Su Chang, with whom he had once been a comrade-in-arms, Luosha had no choice but to put on that smile that now seemed quite deceptive again.
: The knight's oath is so heavy that when concealment becomes a part of the oath, he will still be hurt by the look of betrayer - even if Leo has nothing to do with his plan.
"But...I heard the core--"
"...You are also a party involved, Su Shang, come in with us. I hope you can point out when he is lying. Gui Naifen's live broadcast has also been cut off, right?"
"Um...I don't know this gentleman..."
"Until we come to a conclusion, I'll have to ask you to wait in the conference room for a while. Liuyun, please take care of these two children."
[Teacher, there is no unusual movement outside. ]
[It seems that he did not contact the previous Sword Master to rescue him - the meeting was probably planned by him, but the time was not determined.]
Taking Luosha to the meeting room, Kong found that the guests had dispersed under the guidance of Tianbosi. Not only was the lobby quickly blocked, but those who were enjoying the cool in the courtyard also retreated to their rooms after being told by the waiters. It was unknown whether they had any intention of stopping the cloud or riding the sky.
"...Ah, damn it, sometimes I hate my reason. It always calls me to find out the truth first - even if you have admitted that you have harmed many people..."
Although he said that he would kill Luosha first and then avenge himself, when he really sat across from him, Kong was able to calm down and look at this lingering "stinky face":
"I hope you will be worthy of my sanity, Mr. Luosha - now, explain how it was placed in the Scaled Abyss?"
"Since the doctor was able to find me, he must have seen the clues I deliberately left behind. I will just tell you straight away - I don't know all the ways the star core entered the Scaled Abyss. I was only responsible for transporting it to Luofu. The rest of the transportation work should be done by the Medicine King's secret instructions. However, it must be prepared when the seal is removed, and it must be done by individuals with strong adaptability of the star core. I personally think they are related to the people who destroyed it, and the last step was done by the Legion."
As if he understood after repeated confirmation that if he continued to argue or conceal the truth from Kong, he would kill him on the spot without regard for Luo Fu's face, Luo Sha's voice became more serious: "Compared to how I smuggled the star core in, the purpose of my doing this should be more important to the general - after all, it has already happened. I have prepared all the clues for the Cloud Cavalry, enough for you to report to the general, but before that, please listen to my reason for transporting the star core. Allow me to ask you a question."
"I'm listening. As for the question, it depends on my mood."
At the same time as Sora made a muffled sound, Hina also walked lightly into the meeting room from the door. Luosha saw the girl holding the machine gun staring at him with a stern and indifferent look, and he actually tensed up.
