The girl's voice rose slightly, as if she were bewitching someone.
Xiao Na, emboldened by some unknown source, looked fiercely at Qi Jiu as if she were looking at Nan Chen.
"He saved me, pulled me out of the abyss, but this isn't the life I want! I don't want to live like this at all! I'm looked down upon for cleaning every day! Everyone in the organization can be a hacker, but he didn't have the patience to teach me! It's like living without any dignity!"
Looking at the tears dripping from her hands, Qi Jiu suddenly laughed, a mocking laugh.
"Foolish. Did that old man not teach you? You know whether you tried your best or not, whether you took the lessons seriously or not. But I have to tell you, I hate betrayal the most, and I hate it even more when someone impersonates Nan Chu. Such a person should be skinned alive!"
She grabbed Xiaona by the collar and flung her to the ground.
With a loud 'bang,' dirty water and blood instantly covered her, and a stench emanated from the tip of her nose.
But now no one pays attention to her, and she can only struggle on the ground in such a sorry state, because her hands are tied and she is wriggling on the ground like a maggot.
They had no dignity whatsoever, and just struggled on the ground like that.
Qi Silin didn't even glance at her now, his face full of disgust.
Meanwhile, Qi Jiu had already set her sights on the half-dead Chu Yu, and a dagger had appeared in her right hand at some point.
"I heard from Ah Lin that you're willing to tell me everything? Is that true? If it is, that would be the best, so I don't have to take action. Otherwise, you'll be the one suffering."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Yu shook her head violently, reacting extremely. "I'll talk, I'll talk, please don't treat me like this!"
She'd had enough! Spending every day in this place, not eating or sleeping well, having to be treated like a dog, her self-respect trampled underfoot!
"Okay, then I'll have to ask."
The wailing in the dungeon stopped at some point. As time passed, Qi Jiu and Qi Silin left the dungeon side by side, with Liu Guang and Liu Yu following behind them.
Emerging from the dungeon and basking in the sunlight, Qi Jiu stretched comfortably.
If you're used to the darkness, it seems a little strange to be in the sunlight.
"Miss Qi, what should we do with those two people?"
Should we kill them? Wouldn't that be too easy on them? But what use are the two of them now?
The girl glanced at the mercenaries still training not far away, and lazily squinted her eyes.
“Keep them, they’re still useful. Didn’t we find out about a stronghold? We were too passive before, and we lost patience. Sever their tendons, break their limbs, pack them up and throw them in front of Zero’s stronghold, let them see what happens to these two.”
Before, she would wait for them to come to her, but now she just wants to take the initiative.
Liu Yu was taken aback, then nodded. "I understand, Miss Qi."
As he spoke, he glanced at Liuguang beside him and walked straight into the dungeon.
The girl had just returned to her office and hadn't even had a chance to sit down when she heard a series of knocks on the door.
"Come in."
Luo An had just entered when he saw Qi Jiu and was momentarily stunned. He then looked at Qi Silin and resumed his usual serious demeanor.
"Master, the person you were discussing cooperation with has arrived and is currently in the reception room. Please lead them over."
The man nodded. "The leader of M came in person?"
His words reached Qi Jiu's ears without missing a single one. The girl visibly froze for a moment, then slowly turned her head to look at Qi Silin, her expression indescribable.
But the man didn't seem to have noticed anything and continued talking to Luo An. "Let's bring him to the office."
After Luo An left, he finally turned his gaze to the girl beside him. He paused, looking at the expression on her face.
"What's wrong? Why the expression? Do you have a grudge against the M organization? Then I'll tell them to get lost right now!"
At this point, the girl immediately became a little anxious. "No, no, no, no, we have no grudge." On the contrary.
Her current agitation alerted Qi Silin, who looked at her, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
The office fell silent suddenly. After what seemed like an eternity, he finally spoke, "The M organization... do you know anyone there? Are you very familiar with them?"
Currently, the only reason that could elicit this reaction from her, besides having an enemy, seems to be this.
Sure enough, the little girl nodded the next second.
Seeing her actions, Qi Silin suddenly fell silent and nodded. "Someone very important?"
Friends? Who else could be important?
The little girl continued nodding, "You know the leader of this M organization too."
Upon hearing this, Qi Silin raised an eyebrow with interest, his gaze gesturing for Qi Jiu to continue. However, she was taken aback by what Qi Jiu said next.
“It’s my elder brother, Shen Cimo.”
Qi Silin: "..." What? What? Are you deaf?
"Ouch, hiss... um, ah, okay."
After hesitating for a long time, he finally uttered just a few words, which made Qi Jiu both laugh and cry.
She remembered that there seemed to be no hatred between the two of them; they had just had a few minor arguments over some trivial matters.
"Knock knock knock!"
Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and Luo An walked in first.
"Master, Miss Qi has been brought here."
As he moved aside, he saw Shen Cimo, who was clearly stunned and then somewhat bewildered. He looked at Qi Silin, then at Qi Jiu, and then, as if he didn't believe it, he came to the office door and looked at the words on the door.
"Island Owner's Office, I haven't gone to the wrong place."
His muttering eventually reached the ears of the three people in the office.
Qi Silin: "..."
Qi Jiu: "..." For some reason, she felt inexplicably guilty.
She knew the identities of both of them, but she hadn't told them. Suddenly, she felt the air around her thin.
Instantly, everyone in the office stared at each other, until Shen Cimo broke the silence first.
"The Lord of Death Gate Island?"
For some reason, I suddenly remembered something the little girl said when I took her to school once. At the time, I was worried that Qi Silin would bully her, but the little girl just blurted out…
Even if he were the lord of Death Gate Island, there's nothing he can do.
What was his reply? I forget, but it wasn't anything nice...
Qi Silin nodded. "Mm."
Although he had previously felt that Qiqi, his older brother, was not simple, he didn't expect that she really was.
