Chapter 760 The Road to Betrayal(1/2)
(That's right, this is the astral world, this is the great new world, it is always full of incredible miracles - The First Rain)
When Hongzhe drifted for a month, his food was almost lost, and he was about to be forced to go from four meals a day to two meals a day, his luck finally came.
A group of star thieves appeared around Satan. They were in large numbers and easily surrounded Satan.
What is a star thief? It is an extremely evil person who does everything evil in the starry sky. In the eyes of ordinary people, meeting them is naturally not a good thing. If you lose money in small amounts, you will be free from disasters, and if you are seriously injured, your life will be unsafe.
But for Hongzhe, who is so desperate and almost dead, meeting people, whether good or bad, is his savior.
Moreover, he naturally would not care whether the other party wanted his own life. As a demon who stood at the top of the demon star system, he would not be afraid of anyone in terms of combat power.
If the other party is too forced, Hongzhe doesn't even mind killing everyone, it's not a difficult thing for him.
Hongzhe was fearless and only had the excitement of living, but the star thief on the opposite side was not so relaxed.
For them, seeing an empty ship intact is indeed a charming thing, but another question is whether this empty ship is a trap? Or a ghost ship full of dangers.
Star thief is a profession that licks blood on the sword. Even if you don’t mention the official encirclementers, you will have countless enemies alone, and many potential enemies can’t even remember them themselves.
Therefore, although the Star Thief seems to be just a group of crazy thieves, they are actually more cautious than anyone else.
Carefulness is the only principle for star thieves to survive.
Therefore, facing the huge "ghost ship" that looked empty, the leader of the star thief hesitated and he had to be careful.
He did not even send a team to test immediately to prevent the potential enemy from awakening and triggering a large counterattack from the enemy.
The star thieves just carefully surrounded the Satan, without attacking or retreating. They were about to wait for a day before making a decision.
Normally, this is indeed a very calm judgment, able to preserve strength to the greatest extent and respond to all possible emergencies in a timely manner.
But, is this really a normal situation?
You know, the Satan is not a ghost ship, there is still a person inside, and this person can no longer hold on and wants to have a big meal immediately...
After listening to Hongzhe’s previous narrative, Chen Xiaoming could roughly guess the future development, and Hongzhe’s next words also confirmed Chen Xiaoming’s judgment.
"Of course, at that time, I had been tortured by this boring drift. I finally saw people, so I naturally wanted to meet them impatiently. No matter what they would become in the future, I would not care about it.
I was not in the mood to play the ghost ship game, and I was shocked by the way. I was not in the mood to wait for them to be cautious enough and come to save me. Who knows how good their patience is? If I wait for another month or two, I will die.
Of course, maybe rushing up to defeat them was a good idea, but I was not in the mood to do such a troublesome thing at that time.
I am not a fool either, so what if I defeat them? Dugu Qiubai is lonely. Can I continue to wander?
So, before these star thieves were tested much, I ran out excitedly and directly surrendered with the white flag.
They were stunned at that time. They didn't expect that there were really people in the Satan, and they didn't expect that I surrendered without any resistance."
"Hongzhe, I want to tell you that this is not something to be proud of." Looking at Hongzhe's excited face, Liuli reminded him helplessly, "But I want to say, why didn't you surrender so simply when you were fighting us? I can only say, you are such a super idiot."
Hongzhe ignored Liuli's contempt, or he had completely fallen into his own story.
"After a simple communication, they quickly believed me and agreed to my request.
It’s not that they are not cautious enough, but that I gave a big gift.
I told them that I am an intern star chef and very good at cooking. I just hope they don’t kill me and take me in. I am willing to offer the Satan.”
Chen Xiaoming smiled meaningfully, "The conditions are indeed generous enough, but it is too thick. If I'm not wrong, you probably didn't tell them that the Satan is a pseudo-aircraft."
"Haha. You guessed it again." Hongzhe shrugged, as if he was helpless to Chen Xiaoming, but he immediately became serious, "Yes, that's it. I think since you asked this, you must have guessed how I did it."
"Indeed, I think you must not be very open and upright." Chen Xiaoming said with a smile, "But don't worry, since we Night Butterfly Thieves are a thief group, of course we will not mind some despicable things."
"You mean?" Liuli was a little confused.
"Let's listen to Hongzhe himself." Chen Xiaoming shook his head and said, "I think he should be willing to give us a correct answer. Isn't it, our intern star chef?"
"I actually mentioned the intern star chef. It seems that I can't hide anything from you. I suddenly feel that doing things under you is a very stressful thing." Hongzhe said helplessly, "Okay, I'll say.
I have never told anyone else the following words. If you hadn't told me so frankly that you were a thief group and wouldn't mind despicable things, I would have concealed them even if I was tortured.
Because I will be afraid, and if you say this, you will refuse to let me join, and then I will be desperate."
"I have guessed everything you want to say, so there is no need to hide it anymore. Let's say it out loud. Only in this way can you say goodbye to the past." Chen Xiaoming whispered, "I promise you in the name of the Night Butterfly Stealing Commander that we will not discriminate against you for this, and of course we will not change your view of this.
Perverts are always perverts, I sincerely believe them.”
"You can't let me touch the leader a little bit when you say this," Wen smiled helplessly, "Okay, you won, but I want to say something in advance, I don't believe you guessed it.
Since you said [perverts are always perverts], I also want to say that soul thieves are always soul thieves!”
"You!" Chen Xiaoming roared angrily.
"Haha." Chu Yu laughed, "I agree too."
Hongzhe, who achieved a temporary victory, said arrogantly, "I know that although those people allowed me to join them and even gave me a position as a chef, they never believed me.
These people are the same. They only need my strength, but they are disdainful of my cooking skills.
So, every time I joined a different organization in the past few years, although I chose various methods, I never confessed the following words to them.
Just because, I know, once I tell them all this, no one wants to take me in.
He would even kill me immediately.
But you are different.
I think if I don’t tell you everything about me, it will be my biggest mistake in life.
For an intern star chef, maybe he can only meet a team of destiny in his life, and I am willing to bet on you all my things.
Even if you don’t want to accept me after listening to my confession, or even kill me, I, Satan Hongzhe, will do whatever you want.
Because this is my judgment of my destiny as an intern star chef.”
Hongzhe said it extremely firmly, and his eyes were burning with a fire of resolute perseverance (still a real flame).
However, Chen Xiaoming didn't know whether he was so frank about being intimidated by his identity as a soul apostle.
However, despite some doubts, these are unnecessary for Chen Xiaoming.
Because, no matter what reason Hongzhe made such a decision, since his soul was not shaken, Chen Xiaoming had no reason not to believe him.
Since Hongzhe dares to be so honest, no matter what he says later, Chen Xiaoming will consider it from the perspective of the team.
Instead, rely solely on your feelings for a person.
Chen Xiaoming knew that Hongzhe was able to make up his mind to confess everything about him, which shows that he had the determination to join Yedie Thieves.
Just like the original glaze.
They are fearless.
However, Chen Xiaoming did not expect that Hongzhe would actually tell such a tragic or lonely past.
After receiving Chen Xiaoming's instructions, Hongzhe seemed to organize the language and began his own narrative of blood and tears:
"Indeed, after my uncle's incident, it's hard for me to believe others.
So, although I urgently need to join other people's team for various reasons, I naturally have to keep a hand.
I must learn to protect myself and allow myself to survive alone in this disputed world without being exploited by others.
Will not become victims again, or fight machines without freedom.
Only by maintaining autonomy and preventing others from controlling me like this time can I find my own natal team, and one day in the future, I will embark on the road of diners again and return to Dirithus again."
"It's not easy for you, either." Chen Xiaoming shook his head and said, "So, what are your means to keep?"
Hongzhe said, "What other means can I have? Of course it is Satan.
As long as I don't say it, with their eyesight, they will definitely not be able to see the prototype of the Satan. These star thieves will definitely not be able to discover it. This seemingly huge and even bulky spacecraft is actually a pseudo-aircraft with the soul of a grass mud horse.
In other words, no matter how they control me, I can leave easily, just like this time I escaped from the Demon Tears Mercenary Corps.
The key is still in my hands.”
At this time, Wen interrupted Hongzhe's narrative and shook his head and said, "Human nature can trust others, but this world cannot be believed.
When you are hurt again and again, betrayed by trust again and again, people will become unable to trust others or even themselves.
For example, a young wife, whose husband betrayed her and elopes with a woman."
"Oh, why is this happening!" Liuli quickly felt sad.
Wen continued, the mask was replaced with a heavy expression, "This young wife wanted to get her husband back, but found that the mistress was actually a Tulatula star, and his husband also became a Tulatula star because of doing something ulterior motive with the mistress."
Liuli's tears quickly dried up, "…."
Wen said affectionately, "From this day, this young wife swears to kill all the Tulatula people. From then on, she has become a killer."
Liuli finally got angry, "Hey!!! I thought you would never trust men if you said this little wife!!!! Why did a sad love scene become like this? 1!!! What is this Tulatula star man!!! Why did he still appear!!!"
"Liuli, you have to pay attention to your image. You are the symbolic woman of our Night Butterfly Thieves Group. Will a Tulatula star make you fuss?" Chen Xiaoming shook his head, and it looked like a teacher who was unable to correct the students.
"Yes. It's normal for Tulatula people." Hongzhe looked at Liuli in confusion and shook his head, "Teacher Wen, I understand what you mean. Are you saying that I am the same as that young wife, and I have Tulatula's distrust sickness?"
Wen Chen nodded with a key point, "Yes, through the analysis of this case, I can probably imagine your future."
However, Wen did not finish speaking. Liuliteng stood up, shook her hair suddenly, stepped on the chair with a high-square right leg, even exposing her thigh, and at the same time, she slammed the table with her left hand.
What kind of image, what kind of lady, actress Liuli has completely ignored it, and she finally left abruptly, "Hey, why do you even know the Tulatula star people? Why don't I know it?! Isn't it just a disease of distrust? Adding a Tulatula can make you look like a difficult and complicated disease!!!
