Chapter 142 You know, male insects are never reasonable.
But as soon as he said that, Cano immediately deflated.
Why did he have to speak so quickly? What if Tan Chi said he couldn't come with Eli?
He had previously noticed that Eli seemed to really like his younger brother.
I heard that Timothy was kicked out of the selection process for the Crown Prince because he took the wrong step when entering the palace.
What if his words just now upset Tan Chi?
Kano grew increasingly sad, and tears welled up in his eyes as if they were about to spill from the sunlight.
Fortunately, Tan Chi knew after the last palace banquet that this male insect wasn't very clever, and that his mouth was faster than his brain wasn't a big problem.
With his older brother around, he doesn't need to be involved in most things.
However, for those who covet his older brother, his ability to think faster than he speaks is actually an advantage.
Tan Chi is now quite accepting of his sharp tongue, which is as sharp as a mushroom.
Moreover, although he might say things against his will to Eli, the meaning he wanted to express could be gleaned from his expressions.
To put it bluntly, he's just a slightly arrogant little bug.
"Don't worry, my brother will definitely choose a time when Lord Cano has time."
Kano raised his slightly dejected head, his eyes still a little red. "Lord Tan Chi, are you serious?"
Tan Chi nodded, "Yes, although my elder brother is usually quite busy, he still has opportunities to spend time with the future leader."
When Kano heard the words "future great ruler," his cheeks flushed again.
Seeing that the little male insect had regained its vitality, Tan Chi couldn't help but chuckle to himself. As expected of a child, it was fully revived with just a few words.
"Your Excellency Cano, it seems it's getting late. How about we grab something to eat at the restaurant next door and then explore the other places?"
He spoke slowly again, asking for Cano's opinion.
Kano looked at the wrapped ceramic cup on the table and nodded happily, "Great, great, let's see what else His Highness might like nearby."
He imagined Eli receiving the gifts and being kissed, hugged, and lifted high in the air, and he couldn't resist wanting to buy more.
Tan Chi looked at his rosy cheeks, sighed helplessly, and then left Chai Na's handmade studio with him.
The two insects walked along the shady side of the street. It was the hottest time of the afternoon, and there were hardly any insects out on the street.
Suddenly, a cold wind swept by, and two ferocious-looking insects suddenly emerged.
"Don't move! Follow us obediently, or you'll regret it!"
Kano was clearly startled by the two insects and subconsciously looked at Tan Chi beside him. Before Tan Chi could speak, two female soldiers quickly appeared beside him.
They almost immediately began fighting with the two ferocious insects.
Tan Chi clearly sensed that the two insects had been taken away from their safe zone; it seemed that the two insects were merely targets to draw fire.
"Hurry up!" Although Tan Chi was not afraid of other insects catching him, he still had one with him.
Thinking this, Tan Chi pulled Kano along and continued walking towards the street on the side.
All the insects that tried to pursue him were silently dealt with by Tan Chi using his mental power.
They died silently before they even had a chance to get close to them.
Tan Chi quickly found a suitable corner and hid Kano inside.
"Kano, listen carefully. No matter what noise you hear later, don't come out, understand?"
Looking at Tan Chi's expression, Kano assumed that he was going to use himself to draw fire and protect his safety.
His tears instantly streamed down his face. "Lord Tan Chi, I want to stand with you through thick and thin, sob sob sob..."
Tan Chi rubbed his temples, somewhat speechless. "Kano, if you want both of us insects to go back safely, you'd better shut up, okay?"
The last few words he uttered were practically squeezed out between his teeth.
The fleeting murderous intent made Kano shudder. He had a feeling that if he didn't shut up, Tan Chi might knock him unconscious on the spot.
So he wisely kept quiet.
Only then did Tan Chi roll up his sleeves with satisfaction and stand calmly under the big tree not far away.
Only three female insects remained that had been tracking Tan Chi and Kano.
Looking at the three insects that appeared before him, Tan Chi asked calmly, "Who sent you?"
Three Insects sneered, "These are not questions you can ask, and even if you try to stall for time, you won't be able to wait for rescue."
"As space pirates, it's perfectly normal for us to capture a few male insects to have some fun. You can only blame your bad luck!"
"If you come with us obediently, we won't hurt you badly. But if you don't cooperate, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Tan Chi looked at the three robust female insects, their scarred faces, thick beards, and resolute square faces were truly unbearable to look at.
Especially considering their size, comparable to two Schwarzeneggers, he found it hard to imagine what kind of male insect would have such peculiar tastes as to like female insects with such a sloppy, drawn style.
He couldn't help but rub his eyes. "You're right, you can only blame your bad luck today..."
"What do you mean... ah!"
"ah!"
"ah!!!"
With the three insects screaming in agony, their bones seemed to be crushed, and they lay stiffly on the ground.
The three insects were quite heavy, causing the ground to sway slightly.
One of the three insects even landed headfirst and immediately fainted.
Tan Chi's lips curled into a smirk, his sinister gaze sweeping over the other two conscious female insects. A fake smile slowly spread across his face. "Now let's see which of you two insects is more unlucky..."
As he spoke, he pointed back and forth between the two insects with his fingertip, "Pointing out soldiers and generals, whoever is pointed at is the unlucky one!"
Tan Chi's fingertips landed on the female insect in the middle, and he knocked it down with a karate chop.
The female insect next to her widened her eyes instantly. "Didn't they say whoever's name is unlucky?!"
Tan Chi shrugged. "You know, male insects are never reasonable."
Female insect: "..."
Damn it, you wicked male worm.
He glared fiercely at Tan Chi, "I would never betray our boss, just kill me!"
Tan Chi stared intently at the female insect. "It's alright, don't be afraid. Look me in the eyes and tell me, who sent you to capture me?"
Almost instantly, the female insect's gaze became blank. "It's our boss, Roronoa."
Tan Chi frowned. "Why did he arrest me? I don't think I have any grudge against him."
The female insect's mechanical voice rang out again, "Boss, to avenge the Laneta family, we learned from the Second Legion that you are the master of Major General Letkar of the First Legion. Capturing you makes it easier to control him, ruin his reputation, and kill him... Ah!!!"
