The man sitting on the ground spoke indifferently. He looked very thin and indifferent. It was hard to imagine that he was a person from the main star of Shuta. His voice was filled with loneliness and desolation.

Doniel was a little confused about this hostage. He looked so small that he could be crushed by just one finger.

"That... please don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else. I just want to say, no matter what kind of deal, please let me go back to the main star of Shuta. There I have something I need to accomplish."

"You are a little too lenient. Do you think we will let you go just like that?" Doniel sneered: "You are our hostage, the bargaining chip we exchange with the government."

Qi Yan was silent for a while, and said: "Then you may be disappointed. The government will not promise you anything because of me."

- On the contrary, they wish you could get rid of me forever.

Qi Yan's identity is a bit special, which is only known to a few senior government officials and himself.

The main planet of Shuta is well-known for not letting people from the planet wander outside. After all, nobles and rich people may be involved in various plans and secrets, so Doniel is very sure that people from the government will come to negotiate with him.

At this moment, Qi Yan's words seemed to be advising him not to push his luck as a strong man. Doniel sneered, slammed the door, and then locked it. The sound of footsteps left, and the darkness returned to silence.

Qi Yan sighed lightly, remembering that Doniel seemed to be here to deliver food. Qi Yan couldn't see, so he could only tentatively feel around, expanding the range a little bit, and finally touched a stainless steel plate that was still warm in the upper right corner of his body.

Smelling it, it should be cream soup or something like that.

The hands cannot move, only the most powerful one can move. Kia can imagine himself lying on the ground, licking soup like a dog, and a chill ran down his spine.

It is better not to eat than to suffer such humiliation!

Qi Yan sighed and prepared to give up the food, but accidentally touched something next to him, making a crisp "click" sound.

Qi Yan was stunned, turned around and touched it with his bound hands, and found that it was actually a fork. Then the corners of his mouth widened a little: "God really helps me."

Holding the fork in his hand, Qi Yan tried his best to use the sharp end to grind the rope that bound him, and cut it a little bit. Although it was very difficult and strenuous, but with Qi Yan's efforts, one end of the rope was cut open.

As if he had found a breakthrough, Qi Yan gave a light shake, and the rope came loose.

Gently rubbing his stiff wrists, Qi Yan was finally able to fill his stomach.

Reaching out his hand to untie the cloth around his eyes, the light cut through the darkness, Qi Yan squinted, somewhat repulsed by the sudden brightness, and it took him a while to gradually adapt.

This was an enclosed cabin, not big, and not as dirty and messy as he had imagined. The bluish-white inner wall was shiny, and it was obvious that this was a new spaceship. Facing Qi Yan was a small door with a square opening on it. Three sturdy railings stood in the middle, and a man's sturdy arms could not even stretch out.

A piece of bread and a plate of cream mushroom soup were placed at the door. Qi Yan was so hungry that he quickly wolfed them down.

After eating a piece of bread to fill his stomach and drinking some hot soup, Qi Yan touched his stomach and felt that it was enough.

Strangely enough, there was no spoon for the cream soup, but a fork was given. Qi Yan was very confused, but the fork helped him a lot, and Qi Yan was not so troubled.

Qi Yan didn't have a big appetite. After he was full, he started thinking about how to get out.

Donil hated the government as much as he hated Shuta. Shuta is indispensable to everyone. After all, the nobles and the rich always want to know something to increase their own value, so they get information from various channels.

Qi Yan's identity is a bit special. He is the heir of a high-ranking government official and has been protected by the government all his life.

But on the other hand, he also hates those hypocritical people very much.

The cause of his father's death, the stolen document, the contract for his lifelong care... these were all mysteries one after another.

So, he had a reason to return to the main star of Shuta.

At noon, someone came to deliver food again. It was Xiya.

Xiya opened the door, brought the food in, then glanced at Qi Yan and was about to leave. Qi Yan couldn't give up the opportunity to talk, so he quickly called her.

"Well, please wait a moment!" Qi Yan asked anxiously: "Excuse me, when can I go back to the main planet of Shuta?"

Hearing this, Xiya's eyes flashed with anger: "Oh, can't any government official live a poor life?"

Qi Yan pursed his lips: "I think you misunderstood me. There are people and things I care about on the main planet of Shuta."

"Don't make excuses for yourself, you disgusting vanity!" Xiya turned her head away: "After a few days of negotiation with the government, they will naturally let you go back. Before that, don't have any bad thoughts!"

"Of course I know that. I don't want to cause trouble." Qi Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I thought it was bad enough that the government arranged for me to be a waiter, but I didn't expect to meet the famous Samud pirates."

Xiya frowned: "What do you mean? Do you mean it's even worse to meet us?"

Qi Yan shook his head: "Oh no, I'm just lamenting my life."

Xiya stopped talking, snorted coldly, and walked out.

Qi Yan saw her leave and shouted from behind; "If you are willing to listen to me, I advise you not to believe any of their soft words when negotiating with the government!"

Xiya paused, turned her head and looked at Qi Yan strangely, and then left.

Qi Yan felt that this was all he could do, and the rest depended on their luck.

That night, Doniel brought Thea and Bick to the cell and surrounded Qi Yan.

"What did you say to Thea today? I want to hear you tell me carefully now." Doniel stepped on the raised stone steps with a hint of impatience between his brows.

Kia glanced at Thea and knew that it must be Thea who told Doniel what he said.

"What I mean is, don't believe the government's lies." Qi Yan said bluntly: "The government will not agree to any of your excessive requests, but on the surface, they will pretend to be thinking about you."

"Do you know something?" Bick grabbed Qi Yan's collar and lifted him up.

Qi Yan's veins were throbbing, his face flushed and he couldn't breathe.

Doniel stepped forward and asked Bick to let go.

"What do you know?"

Donil squatted down, holding Qi Yan's chin with one hand, and asked him to raise his head and look at him while he was coughing rapidly.
