Chapter 055 The pressure was overwhelming, making people dare not look directly at it.
Considering the difficulty of the transaction, Canglong finally said, "I'll contact the Cook family."
Hearing this, Sister Snake was smug, puffing smoke in the driver's direction. "I've always said it before, you can't just focus on the money when doing anything. You have to make sure you can get out of this unscathed first."
The driver stood there, unhappy but understanding the current situation.
He snorted through his nose: "Well, making some money is better than getting caught."
Canglong contacted the Cook family on the side.
He Xile hugged his big tail, said nothing, and sat obediently on the bed.
Not long.
"stand up."
Canglong closed the terminal and said, "Let's get ready to go."
——Since Your Majesty has intervened, the sooner the transaction is completed, the better, to avoid any changes.
He glanced at He Xile twice, then casually opened the wardrobe and threw a set of clothes over. "Go change into this. Be quick."
He Xile had no choice but to get out of bed.
He went into the bathroom to change his clothes.
With the extra tail, getting dressed was much more troublesome than before. It took He Xile eight full minutes to finally emerge. "Sorry, I can't control my tail well, it took me so long to get it stuck in there."
Canglong looked behind He Xile and said nothing.
"Let's go."
In addition to the big tail behind him and his face that has become much more ordinary, Canglong's second characteristic, the ability to disguise himself, has also made He Xile's height increase by nearly 30 centimeters.
With a full two meters in height, although still considered short compared to Hai Xinna, at least the difference is not too great to arouse suspicion.
If he walked down the street in this form, no one would think he was that precious human being.
Before leaving, Canglong put his arm around He Xile's waist.
A small particle gun was pressed against his waist, accompanied by Canglong's lowered voice: "Be good on the way. Don't worry when we get there. Stay at that shabby noble's house for a few days. Once the hype has died down and we've got the money, I'll bring you out again."
He Xile: “???”
Good job.
What are you bringing him out for?
Are they planning to sell it to that birdman again to score twice?
My God, this guy is good at making money!
The driver is impressed!
Canglong guessed what He Xile was thinking from his expression.
He said in a deep voice: "I won't sell you. You will follow me from now on."
He Xile: “????”
He Xile had more question marks in his head.
...No, are you okay?
The kidnappers are going to take the kidnapped person away?
He Xile couldn't help but look at Canglong twice more.
But the other party looked indifferent, as if what he said was the most normal thing.
That's all.
He Xile didn't care.
Just listen to what the other person says and don't take it seriously.
Haixinna is so huge that the seasons on each planet are not exactly the same. For example, when most areas are experiencing summer, Obsidian is in late winter.
It snowed heavily last night.
Except for the main roads which were cleared of snow using interstellar intelligence, the snow in other places retained its original appearance.
As soon as He Xile stepped out of the door, he was greeted by a vast expanse of white. The surroundings were blanketed in white, creating a beautiful scene and not feeling the cold at all.
He guessed that it was all thanks to the clothes.
The four of them walked out together.
He Xile immediately saw the patrolmen on the roadside who were questioning people one by one. Judging from their clothes, they were the same as the guards he had seen in the palace.
"Go away." Canglong shouted in a low voice.
He Xile felt helpless as he felt the strength in the other person's hand and the particle gun against his waist.
He is too weak now.
Canglong and the Snake driver behind him all had weapons in their hands. In this situation where they were completely shackled, it was not a wise choice to rashly seek help and alarm everyone. The patrolman over there saw He Xile's big tail and probably had no time to react before He Xile was killed by the angry Canglong.
There was no other way. In order to save his life, He Xile could only obey Canglong's words first.
These three people were obviously experienced space pirates. They were used to this kind of scene and did not show any abnormality.
Along the way, Canglong and others chatted casually, talking about family matters.
Passersby who heard them would just think that the four of them were close friends.
After taking He Xile to a nearby hovercraft rental place, Canglong took the initiative to approach and chat with the owner: "We are here for tourism. I heard that Obsidian Star has many famous gray projects?"
The boss said mysteriously: "Then you have come to the right place."
He glanced at Canglong's hand around He Xile's waist and asked, "But does your lover mind?"
"Let's play together." Canglong said vaguely.
The boss immediately looked at Canglong with a look that said "Awesome, brother."
He Xile: “…”
He Xile had no expression on his face.
What else can I say at this time? Damn it, I can only be forced to admit it!
While the boss was introducing the famous projects on Obsidian Star to Canglong and others, he was also completing the rental procedures.
"Oh right," he added, "but I don't know what happened. Since last night, there have been a lot more soldiers in the city. I guess some businesses are closed..."
Canglong frowned: "Then we came at a really bad time."
"That's not the way to say it."
The boss reached out, handed over the terminal, and winked, saying, "These projects will not be closed, but the prices... are quite high. If you have the money, you can consider them."
Canglong: "Thank you."
He reached out and touched his boss's terminal.
The boss took a closer look and saw a tip. He immediately smiled and said, "You're welcome. If you have any questions later, you can still come to me. I will tell you everything I know."
"Thank you in advance, boss."
Canglong turned around and winked at Sister Snake and the others, "There is indeed something else I want to ask you about."
Snake and the driver took the keys and logged into the hovercraft first, while Canglong continued to chat with his boss. When the terminal rang, he said, "My partner is calling me. See you next time."
Boss: "Okay, okay, have a nice trip."
The snow is a bit thick.
He Xile took one deep step and one shallow step, and followed Canglong to the front of the hovercraft.
After getting on the car, the driver said, "I've checked and found three tamperings on this car. I'll clean it up once we leave the station. I'll make sure we can get rid of these little tails and reach the agreed location with the Cook family within the stipulated time."
"Yeah. Thank you for your hard work."
As he spoke, Canglong finally stopped suppressing He Xile.
He seemed a little uncomfortable and sat aside with his eyes closed.
He Xile hugged his big tail that was about to be lost and sighed softly.
I don't know when His Majesty will arrive...
If it is any later, he will turn against you and take the lead in reporting Your Majesty.
Sister Snake whispered comfortingly, "Don't be afraid. Joule Cook is no fool. Your value is clear. Your final fate will not be the same as those fertilizers. If I were you, I would definitely cherish you."
He Xile: “…”
Not only was he not comforted, he even became more nervous.
The hover car is not slow.
Once on the main road, the driver activated the hovercraft's autopilot mode and began working. He disassembled the tracking system and other components from the hovercraft, which took him half an hour. "Alright."
Canglong stood up and began to prepare.
The three of them looked very relaxed, even cracking jokes. After they had hidden their weapons and done some warm-up exercises, Canglong said to Snake Sister, "Come on."
Sister Snake happily stood up.
After a few seconds, the originally tall Snake Sister turned into the appearance of He Xile in Canglong's hands!
He Xile: “!!!”
WTF???
"Wow. Is this what Smurfette normally sees?"
Sister Snake frowned slightly and reached out to hold the handle beside her. "Damn, I'm a little scared. Stay away from me, further away."
Seeing this, the driver sneered and argued with Sister Snake: "How come you are not even as good as a child?"
Snake Sister: "Come if you can???"
He Xile looked confused.
What's going on?
Canglong and others did not explain.
Everything was ready, and the hovercraft stopped safely at the transaction location.
—A skyscraper owned by the Cook family.
"Let's go."
This time, Canglong didn't embrace He Xile. Instead, he approached Snake Sister, who was disguised as He Xile, and once again placed a small particle gun against Snake Sister's waist. He turned around, bared his teeth at He Xile, and said, "You go in front. Don't try to be clever. With your E and F physiques, we'll recapture you before you can be rescued. Do you understand?"
He Xile: “…I understand.”
After getting off the car, He Xile looked up.
The building is so tall that it reaches the sky, and its top cannot be seen. Its obsidian-like surface makes the whole building look very depressing and dull, like a giant dragon that is in deep sleep, but has opened its mouth wide, waiting for its prey to enter.
In comparison, He Xile still prefers the colorful and flashy buildings on the Imperial Capital Star, which look very sunny and make people's mood become more cheerful.
He took a deep breath and walked forward.
Several people entered.
There was no one guarding the gate, and the inside was empty, like a dead city.
Only on one side of the huge wall was the glorious past of the Cook family being played in a loop.
Sister Snake is next to Canglong.
As she observed her surroundings, she muttered, "…Why does it feel a little off?"
The driver waved his hand. "Don't worry. The Cook family should have contacted the people in the building earlier and asked them to leave. After all, the transaction involves precious humans."
"Too."
After taking the elevator to the agreed top floor, two bodyguards immediately came forward. They looked at Snake Sister who was disguised as He Xile, and invited the four of them to a more secret room.
Enter it.
The door was closed behind him.
The room was very quiet, and only a figure could be vaguely seen sitting behind the water curtain not far away.
"Hello, Mr. Joule Cook. We have brought the goods." Canglong reached out and pushed Sister Snake forward. "We also hope that you can keep your promise and transfer the agreed amount to our account as soon as possible."
He Xile stood aside, staring at the water curtain curiously.
——He wanted to see what this pervert who tortured the handsome man and dumped his body in the back garden looked like.
Next second.
The person behind the water curtain stood up and walked out.
The man wasn't particularly tall, and he wore the aristocratic attire unique to the Cook family, which accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist. His long, beautiful silver-white hair flowed down like moonlight, a truly beautiful sight. However, the most striking thing about him was his face—while handsome, a black streak ran down his face, extending into his collar and nearly obscuring half of it.
Tiny scales are slowly emerging on the lines.
"Hmph." The other party snorted lightly, and there was no emotion in his fiery eyes. When he looked at Canglong and others, it was as if he was looking at dead people.
The pressure was so overwhelming that people dared not look directly at it.
He Xile: “?”
Um?
The pervert is actually Wen Jiyu? ?
