Chapter 213 Failure
After comforting his son, the next thing to do was naturally to interrogate Isaac.
However, Isaac's physical condition is now extremely poor. It seems that he did not receive good treatment and care after being rescued. After he woke up, he looked at least a hundred times gloomier than before, and he was creepy at first sight.
Isaac knew the members of the Goshawk Team, especially He Ziqian, and he had an even greater hatred for them. His cold eyes were filled with murderous intent. Unfortunately, everyone present was indifferent to his gaze. However, correspondingly, He Ziqian could not get any information from them.
Because Isaac refused to speak from beginning to end.
"Captain, you have to use some tricks to deal with this kind of person." Ren Wei was almost losing his patience. After all, the situation was tense and a civil war could break out at any time. Any one of them hoped to avoid the outbreak of this civil war, but they had to meet someone like Isaac. There was no room for negotiation. Isaac's gloomy eyes were clearly mocking, even cursing, as if he was hoping that the civil war would break out immediately and everyone would die with him.
It makes him angry just thinking about it. If He Ziqian hadn't been watching him, he would have beaten Isaac long ago.
This situation changed immediately the second Ruan Xi and Xiaoguai entered the interrogation room.
"Ruan Xi..." Isaac only saw Ruan Xi at first sight. Hatred and hope flashed in his eyes. At that moment, Isaac's expression was extremely ferocious. Xiaoguai was frightened and shrank behind Ruan Xi, but he couldn't help but stick his head out to look at Isaac.
Such an action immediately attracted Isaac's attention. When Isaac saw Xiaoguai's face that was 99% like Ruan Xi, he was shocked. When he felt that Xiaoguai had a similar aura to him, Isaac was completely stunned.
"You...you are...an alien..."
At this time, He Ziqian was quite foresighted and had already sent everyone else out, leaving only the three of them in the interrogation room.
"No! I am the son of my father and my father's son, I am a human being!" Xiaoguai was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this person actually say that he was an "alien". He jumped out angrily to correct the statement. His little face was puffed up with anger, and his two little fists were clenched, as if he was going to rush forward and beat him if Isaac dared to say that he was an alien again.
"You're a human... How ridiculous! You're clearly a half-human, half-alien monster like me. How could you be a human? How could you... be their son? They lied to you, hahahaha..."
Isaac laughed harshly, as if he had heard a huge joke. The gloom in his eyes gradually turned into madness, as if he could turn into substance and devour the three people in front of him.
"That's me! You're annoying! You're a bad person! I'm not like you! You're just a failure!" Xiaoguai was so angry that his logic became inconsistent. He kept talking and presenting all the evidence he could...Okay, these are all conclusions, not evidence at all. They can only be used to make excuses.
"A failure..." Isaac's laughter stopped abruptly. He kept muttering these three words like in a dream, with a dull expression on his face, as if he had lost all vitality.
Ruan Xi never expected that such a shout would actually work like this. Isaac looked obviously shocked. Apparently, he never thought of himself as a "failure" but just a "semi-finished product" in the past.
Isaac remained in this daze for who knows how long before he slowly came to his senses. He looked at Xiaoguai, then at Ruan Xi, and suddenly smiled sadly.
"Hehehe... Turns out I'm not even a semi-finished product, just a failure... Ruan Xi, did you know this a long time ago, but kept it from me?"
Ruan Xi felt a sense of sadness as she watched Isaac like this. The root cause was that Isaac's fate had never been in his own hands. He was just a chess piece destined to be discarded, yet he never knew his true destiny and still desperately wanted to survive...
However, such people do not deserve pity.
Isaac was innocent, and those he killed were only more innocent than he.
"Yes, I knew it a long time ago. To be honest with you, do I still have time to live?" Ruan Xi said it bluntly, even a little coldly. His heart really could not soften at all towards Isaac.
"Haha... Aren't you a doctor? Where is your medical ethics? How can you treat your patients like this..." Isaac seemed to want to provoke Ruan Xi, his mouth and eyes were full of sarcasm, but Ruan Xi remained indifferent the whole time and just looked at him coldly.
"Mr. Isaac, have you forgotten that you kidnapped me? I can't afford a patient like you." Ruan Xi didn't forget the humiliation he suffered, and he mocked back without any pause.
"You...you can cure him, why did you just watch me die? Then, what are you doing here to capture me now? Do you want to extract information from me? Haha...then cure me. If you cure me, I will tell you everything." Isaac's words and expression were full of threats. Although he looked weak, he was as arrogant as ever, the kind that made people want to beat him up.
He Ziqian, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly stepped forward and punched him without hesitation, "Don't take yourself too seriously."
If Xiaoguai hadn't taken the initiative to bring Isaac back, they would never have considered getting any information from Isaac. But the person is already in their hands, and giving up without trying is not their style.
Suddenly, a clear young voice rang out.
"Dad, he is a bad guy. I don't want him anymore. I'll send him back..." Xiaoguai is a straightforward person. If he wants something, he grabs it. If he doesn't want it, he sends it back. Ruan Xi was left in a state of amusement and helplessness when she heard this.
"Want to take risks again?" Ruan Xi's voice couldn't help but become stern, which frightened Xiaoguai so much that he quickly hugged Ruan Xi's arm.
"Dad, I won't run away secretly. I will only send him back if you promise!" It is obvious that this lesson is extremely profound for Xiaoguai. In the future, he probably won't dare to run away secretly again.
Ruan Xi was quite satisfied with this result.
After being disturbed by Xiaoguai, Ruan Xi felt a little relieved. When he looked at Isaac again, he had calmed down.
"Ziqian is right. Don't take yourself too seriously. Your existence isn't the key. From the beginning to the end, you've been nothing more than a pawn destined to be discarded, both to the alien race and to your new master. There's no need to resort to provocation. I might as well tell you plainly that your genetic disease is incurable. Your situation is completely different from Xiaoguai's."
Are you kidding? Xiaoguai has grown into what he is now because of the dual energy of him and the big tree. There are too many coincidences in this process. Even returning to the origin of the alien race is beneficial to Xiaoguai's body. This trajectory cannot be replicated at all. Therefore, Isaac's demise was destined from the beginning and cannot be changed.
"Impossible! My situation is the same as his, both of us are alien parasites. How is it possible that he can survive but I can't... It's because you refuse to treat me! You unscrupulous doctor..." Isaac began to talk without thinking, but before he could finish these unpleasant words, Xiaoguai had already taken a step ahead of He Ziqian and rushed forward angrily, throwing a series of punches from left to right, up to down, and knocked Isaac unconscious in an instant.
"My dad is the best man in the world! You are not allowed to say bad things about him!"
Ruan Xi and He Ziqian: "..." Their son is so awesome!
Then, Isaac fell into a state of madness. The only words that came out of his mouth were curses and angry insults. It seemed that the whole world had wronged him and he was the only one who was right. This theory was indeed consistent with his identity as a pirate.
Ruan Xi and He Ziqian immediately gave up on interrogating him and injected him with double the dose of sedative. Half an hour later, he gradually calmed down and fell into a drowsy state.
Unexpectedly, even after it became like this, Isaac still wouldn't stop.
"You humans are no good. Sooner or later, you will be destroyed by your own hands..."
"Haha, don't you still have family? They all have to die, no one will be left alive..."
"The final outcome for all of you will be the same as mine: you will all die..."
Hearing this, Ruan Xi and He Ziqian's faces changed at the same time. They wanted to ask more questions, but Isaac had already lost consciousness, with his head drooping limply, as if he was dead.
"Family... who is he referring to? Grandpa, or... Funong Star?" To be honest, Ruan Xi didn't have any deep feelings for the people on Funong Star, except for the old lady. However, those people were the family members that the original owner valued. No matter what happened in the past, he should protect the original owner's family.
"Why is Funong suddenly involved? It's clearly just an isolated agricultural planet that can't even connect to the star network. How did Isaac know about the existence of Funong?" For space pirates, such a planet does not have much plundering value and should not be taken seriously by them.
However, Isaac said these words before he fell into a coma, when his consciousness was hazy. If he was not the guide of the room, it meant that the existence of Funong Star really had a special meaning.
Could the outbreak of the civil war be related to Funong Star?
Not to mention Ruan Xi, even He Ziqian couldn't understand this.
"We don't have time to take care of Funong Star right now. Let's report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first and let him handle it. At the very least, we need to be prepared. I've always felt that there must be something wrong with Funong Star, but I've never found a suitable opportunity to investigate. Now, I have to investigate."
When Ruan Xi heard this, she felt an inexplicable panic. Her legs suddenly went weak and she fell down. He Ziqian immediately reached out to support her and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
"I suddenly felt a sense of panic. Could it be that something happened on Funong Star again?"
All the accidents on Fu Nong Star in the past were related to the Tree of Life. Could it be that this time, it is related to the Tree of Life as well?
"Dashu, do you feel anything?" Ruan Xi immediately asked Dashu, but Dashu took more than ten seconds to answer him.
"I don't know what that feels like. I just went back and the little tree is fine, and the place where it grew is fine too..."
However, this inexplicable uneasiness gradually spread in Ruan Xi and Dashu's hearts.
