Shen Shuyi learned from the information sent by the system that the Dennison family used a lot of black miners in its mining industry, and many of these miners were civilians abducted from the garbage planet.
Mining is the most dangerous and insecure job they do in the mining area. They don't get paid, don't even have enough nutritional supplements, and have no human rights.
But the Denison family is wealthy and in league with some ministers, so this matter has not been exposed yet.
Shen Shuyi restrained her expression slightly. If she could take over the Dennison family's business... and then use the financial resources to expand her power, she would not be afraid even if the emperor wanted to take action against her one day.
Xavier noticed that she was distracted, "Someone will follow up on this matter. I will take you back to rest."
"Okay." Shen Shuyi was indeed tired and a little dizzy.
Xavier has a temporary residence on Hermes, which is a two-story villa in the main city.
The environment of Hermes is naturally not as good as Coruscant. Even the air is more turbid than other cities. There are radiation areas everywhere, and residents are crowded in the main city area where the radiation is weaker.
After entering the house, Xavier turned on the air circulation system, and the two of them tacitly slept in separate rooms.
Shen Shuyi simply took a shower, and System 66 reminded him in time.
[Host, now you are in the same room together, you can continue to seduce him. ]
Shen Shuyi: “…” 66, you are too anxious, is this really okay?
"He and I still sleep in separate rooms."
[For you, this is not an obstacle at all. ]The host’s current task completion rate is 100%. As long as you keep going, you can earn a lot of points.
Shen Shuyi wiped his hair lazily, “66, why do I feel like you’re too positive.”
[Host, please call me the King of Volume System from now on. ]
They were so busy on Hermes that Shen Shuyi didn't deliberately flirt with Xavier, but they had already had a subtle, ambiguous atmosphere when they got along naturally because of the hug therapy.
She would notice the other person with every glance and every movement, and she quite enjoyed this kind of ambiguous pull.
In this way, they stayed in Hermes for six days and then returned to Tuyati. If nothing unexpected happened, they would arrive in twelve hours.
Shen Shuyi was sitting drowsily beside the cockpit when suddenly a rapid warning sounded above his head.
[Beep—Emergency alert, the spacecraft has been locked, all personnel on board please take emergency shelter. ]
Then, the aircraft began to shake violently.
"Shuyi, sit down." Xavier sat in the driver's seat and checked the surrounding situation. "We must have encountered interstellar pirates. They have locked onto our spaceship."
"Could it be that the other side is surrounding us?" Shen Shuyi contacted the system, "66, can you see how many people are on the other side?"
This was Xavier's private trip so he didn't bring any guards. If there were too many pirates, would he be able to handle them?
[Host, there are five spaceships on the opposite side, with dozens of people, and they are determined to capture you. But don't worry too much. Based on Xavier's previous battle record and the sturdiness of this spaceship, Xavier should be able to take you away safely. ]
The aircraft kept giving warning sounds that it was being attacked, and the cabin was shaking more and more violently.
Shen Shuyi was almost thrown away and hit the roof of the cabin. Xavier reached out and pulled her into his arms, and with his other hand he quickly controlled the spacecraft to fight back.
The man had a resolute face, without a trace of panic, he opened the safety door of the spacecraft and pushed Shen Shuyi in.
“Wait for me.” He looked into Shen Shuyi’s eyes before closing the metal door. “Don’t worry, it will be fine soon.”
The beautiful guide was a great temptation to those desperate criminals. Although he was sure he could kill all the enemies, what if she got hurt here? Better to keep it secret.
Shen Shuyi’s hand blocked the door, “General, I can help you shoot from outside.”
The guide doesn't have much combat power, but she still knows how to use thermal weapons. More people mean more strength.
Xavier pushed her into a sitting position, bent down to fasten her seat belt, and subconsciously stroked her long hair with his hand when he stood up, "Don't open the door, I won't let anyone come in and hurt you."
"Xavier, don't get hurt!" Shen Shuyi looked at him with a frown until the metal door was closed tightly.
Xavier turned around with a stern expression. The powerful fluctuations of his mental power, the emergency prompts of the spacecraft, and the scarlet warning lights dyed the cockpit bloody.
[warn! The spacecraft's protective device has been activated. Please determine the coordinates for the emergency landing as soon as possible. ]
Xavier's bony fingers tapped on the control panel, his azure eyes reflecting the surrounding red dots on the holographic star map. He chuckled softly, his Adam's apple rolling as a hint of lazy murderous intent emanated from him.
"Just five converted ships."
With a flick of his finger, he activated the attack mode.
After shooting down two enemy spaceships in succession, Xavier suddenly stood up and opened the hatch.
Chen Shuyi could not see anything or hear any sound from outside in the extremely closed cabin, and even the bumpy feeling was much lighter than outside.
She asked the system, "66, what's it like outside?"
[He has accurately shot down two of the five opposing spaceships. The bad thing is that the spaceships are running out of ammunition, and your spaceship may be shot down... Obviously Xavier did not give the other side this opportunity. He opened the door of the spaceship, apparently to let the pirates in. Host, don't worry, you will not be in danger. This cabin is very secluded and the other party doesn't know you are on the ship. ]
Shen Shuyi saw that the favorability value had exceeded 60%. Even if it was not for completing the task, just for Xavier's desire to protect her, she couldn't bear to watch him die.
"66, please alert me if Xavier's life is in danger."
