Chapter 27 Protection Fee Fight

*

'Arale' outpost space station.

Compared to the bustling atmosphere in the square, the atmosphere in the VIP trading room located in the belly of the airship was much more condensed.

There was silence in the air for less than five seconds.

"Yes, that's right! It's 'paid protection.'" Su Xi added seriously.

After hearing this, George, with his beard, narrowed his eyes and smiled. His originally rude and vulgar expression became cheerful because of this smile: "Oops! I accidentally forgot the password of my Star Dollar account, so, haha! I can only exchange goods for goods!"

"Come on, there are many other 'good stuff' at this trade fair!"

Arale and the others immediately looked unhappy. They came to the pirates' den to eat a free meal? Seeing that the tension was getting thicker and a fight was inevitable, Su Xi smiled back and said, "It doesn't matter if you forgot. I just know it."

"Miss Su...SuSuSuXi..." Asa, who had disappeared for a while, reappeared in the VIP room holding an optical media terminal and grinned foolishly: "Done!"

"Xiguang, crack it." The hand under the black hood raised lightly, and a two-dimensional light screen was lowered from the chip board in the VIP trading room. The account of the star coin signed by George appeared in the projection in the air, and the blue and green interlaced interface was quickly cracked layer by layer...

"Captain George, you see, we set the price according to the old rules, and only added a little delay fee, erroneous labor fee, and reception fee..." Foxtail Sasaki smiled and passed the bill over, "Just a little bit more."

Seeing the extra zeros, Captain George's face darkened. With a bang, he signaled his men to clear out the guests in the other booths. Although each booth area was blocked by gauze, it would not be able to stop the fight if it really started.

Xiguang whispered into Suxi's earphone, "Sister, the intelligence of the Siren Galaxy is too vulnerable."

Asa, who had already reached a consensus in private after this incident, interrupted the temporary connection channel and asked, "Wow - so much money! Miss Su Xi, can you transfer it all to me?"

"Idiot! Shut up!" This is Leila Assay. From this turn on, she has been staring at George opposite her in silence with narrowed eyes, not knowing what she is thinking.

"Asa, of course you can't refuse to pay the debt. But taking without asking is stealing. As the 'Arale' that everyone in the Siren Galaxy fears, we are principled and organized star pirates." Su Xi smiled and explained patiently: "After all, stealing and robbery are two completely different concepts."

"So, we must inform the master and get back the reward we deserve in a friendly manner."

"After all, we'll have to trade frequently in the future, right?"

She deliberately didn't say this to the earphone in private, but stared at the increasingly oppressive eyes of the other party. Hmm. The pheromones also seemed to be very unfriendly. Fortunately, the cloak that Foxtail prepared was of good quality.

After taking a glance at the 'Key of Arale' that was deliberately exposed on Su Xi's wrist, George's expression completely changed!

"Who are you?" He sat down in the main chair opposite Leila Assayi, his eyes fixed on Su Xi.

"It doesn't matter who I am, it's who you are that matters."

As soon as he said this, Leila Asai also glanced over. He seemed to be watching silently and bored, but he took out a candy bag with one hand and ate the candy beans with a crunching sound.

George's eyes flickered. This Beta woman who hadn't shown her face yet had a terrifyingly sharp intuition. Also, the slight fluctuation of her mental power just now. Also, the portable intelligent computer that could easily break the password of Star Coin Bank, the "Arale Key" on her wrist... and the way everyone in "Arale" treated her. A new senior member? Not like it!

It's really... full of mysteries! Although the purpose is not pure, this trip to the Arale star field is much more interesting than I imagined.

"Haha!" George with a beard laughed heartily, "It doesn't matter who I am."

"I've already paid the reward even though I didn't want to," he showed a distressed expression, and the alpha's unique pheromone pressure in the air gradually dissipated, "Guys, we're even now! Then Inner Mongolian Da is left to you to do with as you please~"

"See you at the A-level area of ​​the trade fair in three days! The lucky prize of this trade fair awaits you!" George stood up and laughed, walked to the door and patted Pierriglio, who looked like a door god with a stern face, "I have other guests over there, I'll go and entertain them first!"

"See you guys~!"

George took off his bright and exaggerated feather hat and left with a 'circus' bow.

Pierre Gray snorted coldly and stepped aside to make way for the passage. Behind the passage were the circus' black-clad bodyguards, who were already staggering and knocked unconscious.

George remained expressionless, humming a tune and walking away calmly, swaying his bright feather hat.

"His motive is very strange," Su Xi discussed with Foxtail Sasaki.

"There are slight differences in the voiceprint," Foxtail Sasaki took the analysis data handed over by Su Xi and said with certainty, "This person is not George."

"Since the money has been collected," Leila said lazily, picking her ears, "let's just let this circus end and then get rid of it."

The 'Interstellar Circus' is a business organization that is already complicated and full of internal conflicts. As long as the interests of 'Arale' are not affected, there is no need to delve too much into other matters. The more you know, the more trouble you will get into.

"Let's all be more vigilant in these three months."

"All access to Arale's main planet is closed, and the only activity area is this outpost."

After saying that, Leila Asai no longer bothered to think about it. She exerted force on her hands that were resting on the table and nimbly jumped over the platform. She squatted steadily in front of the tied goods. She first kicked them with her feet, then stretched out her claws to poke the poor regional tax collector Inner Mongolia Dazowei. Regardless of his struggle, she tore off the silencing tape on the other's mouth with a ripping sound.

"Hey, Asay, at least my last name is Sai..."

"Shut up!" Leila Asay snapped the tape back on impatiently. "Tell me! What's going on with the tax increase?"

"Hmm! Hmm!"

Neimeng Dazuowei, a beta with a plain face, always smiling, and easy to identify with his triangular mustache, touched his loosened wrist and said to Leila Asay with a little complaint: "It's not me. Since I took your money and my superiors tacitly agreed, how could I do such a thing as taxing it after tax exemption!"

"So how come you're with Circus George?"

"It's a long story. That's because," Neimendazow smiled bitterly, "when I was checking taxes, I accidentally found something that I shouldn't have checked, and then I ran into him selling it on the black market..."

"Oh~" Leila raised her eyelids lazily and interrupted him, "I was careless!"

When there was no omega to bother him, his IQ was quite high. As for what he had found out, it was official stuff, Leila was smart enough not to ask and didn't want to hear more.

"Tsk! You've brought a lot of trouble."

"Hey, stop talking. Lend me a terminal first. I have to report to my superiors, or I won't get my year-end bonus if I'm not working!"

As everyone was trying to recognize their relationship and negotiate the price, Su Xi quietly sat back in the booth. She opened her personal terminal and asked Xiguang to enter the database of the "Interstellar Circus" to dig out more information.

Then, an extremely difficult encrypted file caught the attention of 'Xiguang'. It jumped on the optical media tablet in Suxi's hand and raised a box wrapped in ribbon and decorated like a gift!

"Sister, sister," the virtual red-haired little boy said coquettishly, "Look, look! Dig for treasure!"

Su Xi smiled and clicked it.

One pixel is terrible, less than five seconds of short video. No sound, and the camera is shaky.

But the bloody and cruel meaning is quite clear!

The smile on Su Xi's face faded a little. She turned off the mute, turned on the anti-peeping function, and chatted with her AI companion via text.

'Xiguang, what is that?'

She paused a frame and used her finger to circle a gleaming object in the blurry image.

"Scanning and restoring... Sister, please wait... Hee Kwang will be back soon!"

'Alright! Pixel modeling restoration completed! Video HD repair completed!'

"Sister, that looks like the insect core? To be more precise, it's the outer shell of the insect core, the part that has not been completely separated."

'What's the use?'

"It's a good material for spiritual armor. Sister... Sister... You must get it..."

'Although the U-mass energy shield is very strong, it is too unstable! The physical defense attribute is too low!'

The virtual red-haired little boy blinked his big amber eyes and said with a look of longing:

"Sister, your spiritual potential is very high! This mecha is most suitable for spiritual drive!"

'Xiguang wants to make an awesome bio-robot for his sister!'

"This way, no one can bully me!" The red-haired little boy clenched his chubby fists, remembering the time he was bullied on the Arale main ship. His chubby face was as angry as a bun, and he waved his chubby fists.

After hearing the cute words of the cute little boy, the psychological discomfort caused by watching the bloody video was dispelled at once. Su Xi's eyes flashed with a warm smile, and she wanted to hold it and kiss it. She tilted her head and thought for a while, then smiled and said, "When my situation is better, I will also be a body for Xiguang."

"Really?!?" Xiguang put his chubby little hand on his chin, his wet eyes sparkling with excitement!

Su Xi knew that this interstellar era had extremely strict ethical restrictions on AI materialization, but for her who had come to this world, those rules could not constrain her. Su Xi smiled and suddenly felt that she had a goal, and a small signpost appeared on the confused road ahead.

"Really, I'm not lying to Xiguang." She touched its cute outline vainly, then closed the optical media tablet and looked up at Inner Mongolia Dazuowei who was having a great conversation with Leila Asai, and Foxtail Sasaki who was talking to Pirelli on the side.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Xi moved her fingers slightly and sent an encrypted text message to Foxtail Sasaki's personal communicator.

If you can't eat the lamb alone, you still have to find cooperation with a group of lions that are good at hunting.

Only by focusing on interests can we forge the most reliable allies most quickly.

Giving 'Xi Guang' an entity, this goal, is like a small point of light, which marks a small beginning in Su Xi's journey to another world.

*

Less than three imperial star days.

Arale Star Region. Above the Outpost Space Station.

The energy of the vacuum universe is fluctuating. That is the energy aftermath of the interstellar transition.

An interstellar spaceship and two invisible escort ships appeared low-key above the outpost space station.

"Report to the commander, we have arrived at the designated location accurately." An interstellar navigator in the cockpit stood up and reported. "All parameters are normal, waiting for landing instructions!"

"Infiltrate in a low profile," Chris Zowei said solemnly as he looked at the elites of this special operation, "Act according to the plan!"

"We have to capture the target intact this time," Criszo emphasized.

"Group A follows me. As for Group B," Kriszowei turned his head and took a look, "Hall will be in charge."

The male alpha called Hall was checking the gun in his hand. His tight-fitting silver-gray combat suit outlined his tall and muscular figure. He raised his eyes, his silver-gray hair was combed back meticulously, revealing his full and shiny forehead, and his deep blue eyes were filled with extreme coldness.

With a clear click, the instrument inspection is completed!

Hall stood up and responded in a concise tone: "No problem, keep in touch after you get to the ground."

Ten thousand meters in the sky, the shadow of a huge ship moved slowly, and a dozen figures fell silently over the space station like fine sand scattered into the sea.
