Chapter 29 The Poor Beauty
"Xiao Qianzhi," Rand twitched his lips, "I think even if his mental image was fine just now, he'll have trouble holding it in now."
"Rand." Ming called him gloomily, his expression dangerous, like a poisonous snake standing up ready to attack at any time.
"Alright, alright," Rand immediately raised his hands and changed the subject. "The most urgent task is to get Xiao Qianzhi out of the starship."
"But aren't you going to get rid of Leon and Shadow?" Qianzhi narrowed her eyes and asked, "Why don't you take me with you?"
"Qianqian," Ming raised his body, his strong arms loosely encircling Qianzhi's slender waist, "This is too dangerous."
But Qianzhi touched his lips with her finger, and the man under her immediately shut his mouth obediently.
He couldn't help but gently touch her fingertips with his bright red lips.
He stared at the girl in front of him with burning intensity, watching her smile softly and mischievously:
"Isn't this interesting? I have a score to settle with them too."
Alice felt extremely happy when she saw the unconscious Chizhi being locked in a cage and auctioned off.
The annoying person finally disappeared from her sight.
But she didn't expect that her own fate would be much better than Qianzhi's?
The rugged sentinels lifted her up by the neck like a chick and brought her to the man they called "Chief."
They called him "Leon".
She had seen the masked man before.
The man who ruthlessly knocked Chizhi unconscious in the wilderness outside District 9.
And now, he too glared at her with his cold grey eyes, and after a long moment he uttered a sarcastic sound.
"Alice Brown," he read out her current true level of mental power, "D-class guide, ward of interstellar SS-class Sentinel Ian Gwen?"
"Yes, that's right. He'll be coming to find me soon!" Alice's tongue tightened and her voice trembled. "You must let me go immediately! Otherwise -"
"What else?" Leon took a step closer and glanced at her with disgust.
"I can put you down, Miss Brown, but..." He gestured to the sentry next to him, who immediately drew his sharp dagger and grabbed one of Alice's hands.
"I'm going to chop off one of your hands first as a gift to Marshal Gwen."
He looked at Alice, who was stunned, and laughed maliciously. "I believe he will increase the ransom in order to redeem you. I am looking forward to the amount of the ransom."
Before he finished speaking, the dagger was about to fall with his last words.
“Wait! Wait, wait!” Alice screamed in horror, “You’ve made a mistake! I’m not Marshal Gwen’s ward! I’m not his fiancée! I’m just a guide! Ahem…”
Her wailing suddenly stopped, and Leon grabbed her throat hard.
"Guides are such hypocritical, dirty, disgusting creatures." He smiled coldly, threw Alice to the ground, and wiped his hands with silk, as if she were something extremely dirty.
Alice fell to the ground and was held down again by the sentry next to her.
She heard the man's terrifying voice:
"Since you have nothing to do with Gwen, you are of no value." He waved his hand, signaling the sentry holding the data collector to move forward.
"Let me drain the last bit of useful guiding energy from your body, and then sell it to low-level sentinels as a disposable item."
"No! No! Please!" The long needle of the collector pierced Alice's neck.
She screamed frantically: "I'm still useful!"
She thought of something and smiled grimly in fear.
"Qianzhi, do you know that she is Marshal Gwen's ward?"
"If you let me off the starship, I will find a way to bring her to you."
The long needle at the back of the neck really stopped because of her words.
“It’s her.” Leon curled the corners of his lips coldly.
She is indeed different.
She is not like those delicate flowers raised in the black tower. She has a keen sense of smell, pure and cold mental power, and clear and clean eyes.
As long as Qianzhi is on the starship, he has her in his hands.
“So you—ahhhhhhh—”
Alice looked up at Leon expectantly, but the next second the thick needle mercilessly pierced her neck again.
A dense and extremely concentrated mental force was released from the syringe.
Alice twitched and retched. The huge amount of mental power almost crushed her original mental image. She even heard the sound of her mental image about to collapse.
In a daze, she heard Leon's devilish voice.
"You are indeed somewhat useful. I hope you can make the most of your usefulness."
There are still two days until the "Stealth" starship docks on an alien planet.
"Qianqian, try this. I've tried it before, and it doesn't contain anything that's harmful to the guide's body."
It was indeed a very pleasing thing to see the beautiful lady wearing a figure-hugging starship space suit and walking towards her with a smile.
Even though Qianzhi's original form was a plant and was not sensitive to the human body, he was still controlled for ten seconds.
"Well, thank you, Ming." She wanted to take the nutrient solution from Ming, but he reached forward and put the bottle to her lips.
"It's more convenient to drink this way." He leaned over.
He had unbuttoned one button of his collar at some point, revealing his cold white skin that contrasted sharply with the black tight-fitting space suit, his deep, arched collarbone, and a bit of his pectoral muscles.
The smell of Ming's emotions permeated as he leaned over. It was not the extremely strong smell of liquor at the beginning, but the sweet and clear smell of liqueur.
Immersing yourself in this sweet taste and drinking the unpalatable nutritional supplement can be considered a kind of taste compensation.
But she couldn't finish half of it.
A common problem brought about by technological development is the simplification of diet.
Moreover, in order to reduce the difficulty of food storage on starships, nutritional supplements have become the only alternative.
"No, Ming." She pushed the bottle mouth against her lips with the tip of her tongue.
She didn't notice the sudden deep eyes of the man beside her.
Ming held the half-empty bottle in his hand, licked the bottle mouth several times with his tongue, and then drank the remaining liquid without leaving a drop.
When Rand walked in, he saw his brother dressed up in all kinds of clothes, licking the bottle of Qianzhi's remaining nutrient solution pitifully.
He tutted softly.
This girl who is so beautiful that she exudes poison will actually hit a wall one day.
Who could have imagined that this man who was once admired by thousands of people and never moved would one day be huddled in a small room in a starship, pitifully licking the bottle caps that his beloved no longer wanted.
