On the day before his cat cafe opened, Shen Cheng found a cat-eared girl who had fainted from hunger at his shop's entrance. From then on, his world underwent earth-shattering changes.
A ...
"Please tell me everything you know!"
Looking at the confusion and chaos in Gabriel's eyes, Shen Cheng immediately understood that what he said to Gabriel last night seemed to have had a certain effect.
However, Shen Cheng shook his head and did not answer Gabriel.
"Why!"
Gabriel took a sudden step forward, his hands firmly grasping Shen Cheng's shoulders.
The doubts and confusion in his mind almost brought Gabriel to the brink of exploding.
Gabriel subconsciously used more strength, causing Shen Cheng's shoulder to hurt slightly, and he couldn't help but grin.
"Sorry..."
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Gabriel let go of Shen Cheng's shoulders and took two steps back.
At this moment, Gabriel seemed to have forgotten the conflict with Shen Cheng last time, and just wanted to seek answers from Shen Cheng.
Patting his shoulder, Shen Cheng said calmly:
"Because even if I tell you, you might not believe it."
Gabriel was silent. She knew that even if the Orange Man gave her the answer, she might not believe it.
"...But, I still want to get your answer from your mouth."
"OK."
Chen Cheng smiled faintly and pointed at the body behind Gabriel:
"Did you see those bodies?"
Gabriel nodded.
"The same fate befell those Phantoms you brought back. Even... a fate even more miserable than this!"
Hearing this, Gabriel felt his head buzzing and he froze in place.
"They didn't receive any so-called protection. Instead, they were dissected by the Dawn people and became guinea pigs for their human experiments. Do you believe me when I say this?
The justice that you have always upheld has become nothing more than a weapon wielded against the weak in their hands. Do you believe me when I say this?
You keep saying you're protecting their safety, but in reality, you're deceiving them step by step, personally pushing countless of your compatriots into the abyss. Do you believe me when I say this?"
Staring at Gabriel's slightly widened eyes, Shen Cheng spoke word by word, his tone becoming increasingly heavy.
When Shen Cheng finished speaking, Gabriel's body began to tremble slightly, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, as if he would fall to the ground in the next moment.
She kept shaking her head, feeling a wavering feeling in her heart:
"That's not the case... That's not the case..."
Gabriel didn’t completely disbelieve Shen Cheng’s words, but…he didn’t dare to believe it.
Or rather, unacceptable.
After all, for Gabriel, this answer was too cruel.
How many phantoms had she brought back to the dawn with her own hands? She herself didn't know.
If all the Huanyas ended up like this, then the words she had always upheld to protect them would be a complete joke.
She... is the real executioner.
"I know you don't dare to believe these things, so for some things, you still have to investigate them yourself to know the truth."
Shen Cheng shrugged and smiled:
"I don't have any evidence here, so it's useless to say more, but I guess you already know what you should do."
“…”
Gabriel did not answer, but silently moved away from Shen Cheng and walked out of the house.
Gabriel spread his wings and flew into the air, his figure quickly disappearing.
After watching Gabriel leave, Shen Cheng walked out of the hut and took a few steps in the direction Gabriel pointed. He soon saw a round-faced girl standing there.
That little round face made Shen Cheng want to pinch it, it was quite cute.
It would be better if the ears and tail were still there.
Hearing footsteps, Sheila turned around.
When Silla saw Shen Cheng wearing a hood, she was stunned for a moment, and then her eyebrows suddenly lit up with joy:
"It's you! I haven't thanked you properly yet!"
Shen Cheng nodded: "Daphne and the others are very worried about you, so they asked me to take you back."
Hearing this, Silla scratched the back of his head and laughed:
"Gabriel caught me. By the way, where is Gabriel? Did you chase him away?"
As she spoke, little stars immediately lit up in Sheila's eyes.
Shen Cheng didn’t answer, and started to retrace his steps with Silla.
Silla immediately followed Shen Cheng.
I have to say that these fugitives are really simple.
If it were someone with bad intentions, it would be too easy to kidnap Sheila.
Along the way, Silla was like a chatterbox, chattering and asking questions to Shen Cheng non-stop.
"Hey, what's your relationship with Gabriel?"
"Hmm... I can't say for sure. Are they enemies?"
"When did you meet Sister Daphne and the others?"
"Just now, I got to know them through Ellie."
"So you know Ellie? How is she now?"
"She's fine now."
Along the way, Silla asked a question and Shen Cheng answered it.
Shen Cheng was very happy to see that Silla was still full of energy.
It was clear that Gabriel did not do anything to Sheila.
"Um... do you think Gabriel is really a bad guy?"
Suddenly, Silla asked this question to Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng couldn't help but look sideways: "Why do you ask?"
"Before... I talked with Gabriel for a while, and I always felt that Gabriel's heart was not bad."
Silla pinched her chin and frowned, as if she didn't understand why she had such thoughts.
Shen Cheng smiled faintly and asked:
