(Yes, this is the star world, this is the great new world, it is always full of incredible miracles - The First Rain)
When Hongzhe drifted for a month, lost almost all his food, and was about to be forced to switch from four meals a day to two meals a day, his luck finally came.
A group of star thieves appeared around the Satan. There were many of them, and they easily surrounded the Satan.
"What are star thieves? They are extremely evil people who do all kinds of evil in the starry sky. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is not a good thing to meet them. In small cases, they will lose money and avoid disasters, and in more serious cases, their lives will not be saved.
But for Hong Zhe, a loser who is desperate and almost certain to die, meeting people, whether good or bad, is his savior.
" Moreover, he naturally doesn't care whether the other party wants his life. As a full-scale demon who stands at the top of the Demon Sea Galaxy, he will not be afraid of anyone in terms of combat power.
If the opponent is really pushing too hard, Hongzhe won't even mind killing everyone. This is really not a difficult task for him.
Hong Zhe has nothing to fear, only the excitement of living, but the Star Thief opposite is not so relaxed.
For them, seeing an intact empty ship is indeed a fascinating thing, but there is another question, could this empty ship be a trap? Or maybe it's a ghost ship filled with dangers.
Star thieves are a profession that licks blood from their swords. Not to mention the official suppressors, there are countless enemies, and many potential enemies they cannot even think of themselves.
Therefore, although the Star Thieves seem to be just a group of crazy thieves, they are actually more cautious than anyone else.
Caution is the only principle for Star Thieves to survive.
Therefore, facing a huge ¡®ghost ship¡¯ that seemed empty, the leader of this group of star thieves hesitated, and he had to be cautious.
He didn¡¯t even immediately send out a small team to test, in order to prevent potential enemies from awakening and triggering a major enemy counterattack.
The Star Thieves just carefully surrounded the Satan without attacking or retreating. They were prepared to wait for a day before making a decision.
Normally speaking, this is indeed a very calm judgment, which can preserve the strength to the maximum extent and respond to all possible emergencies in a timely manner.
But, is this really a normal situation?
You must know that the Satan is not a ghost ship. There is still a person inside, and this person can no longer hold on and wants to have a big meal right away
After listening to Hongzhe¡¯s previous narration, Chen Xiaoming could roughly guess the subsequent development of the situation, and Hongzhe¡¯s next words also confirmed Chen Xiaoming¡¯s judgment.
"Of course, at that time, I had been tortured enough by this boring drifting. I finally met people, so I was naturally eager to meet them. No matter what it would be like in the future, I couldn't care less.
I'm not in the mood to play ghost ship and scare them, and I'm not in the mood to wait for them to be cautious enough before they come to rescue me. Who knows how patient they are, if they have to wait another month or two, I would be dead.
Of course, maybe it would be a good idea to rush up and defeat them, but I was not in the mood to do such a troublesome thing at that time.
"I'm not a fool, so what if I defeat them? It's lonely to be defeated alone. Do I have to continue to wander?"
So, before these star thieves could test them, I ran out happily and raised the white flag to surrender.
They were dumbfounded at the time. They never thought that there was really someone on board the Satan, let alone that I surrendered without any resistance. "
"Hongzhe, I want to tell you, this is not something to be proud of." Looking at Hongzhe's excited face, Liuli reminded him helplessly, "But I want to say, why are you fighting with us? What about something other than such simple submission? All I can say is, you are such a huge idiot."
Hongzhe ignored Liuli¡¯s contempt, or in other words, he was completely immersed in his own story.
¡°After a simple communication, they quickly believed me and agreed to my request.
It¡¯s not that they weren¡¯t cautious enough, it¡¯s just that I gave them a big gift.
I told them that I am a trainee chef and I am very good at cooking. I just hope they don't kill me and take me in. I'm willing to sacrifice the Satan number. "
Chen Xiaoming showed a meaningful smile, "The conditions are indeed generous enough, but they are too generous. If I guessed correctly, you probably didn't tell them that the Satan was a pseudo-spacecraft."
"Haha. Again?You guessed it. Hongzhe shrugged, seemingly helpless towards Chen Xiaoming, but then he became serious, "Yes, that's it. I think since you asked, you must have guessed what I did." "
"Indeed. I think you must not be very upright." Chen Xiaoming said with a smile, "But don't worry, since our Night Butterfly Bandits are a group of thieves, of course we won't mind some despicable things."
"You mean?" Liuli didn't understand.
"Let's listen to Hongzhe himself." Chen Xiaoming shook his head and said, "I think he should be willing to give us a correct answer. Isn't it, our trainee star chef?"
"I specifically mentioned the trainee star chef. It seems that I really can't hide anything from you. I suddenly feel that working under you is a very stressful thing." Hongzhe said helplessly, "Okay, I said .
I have never said the following to anyone else. If you hadn't told me so frankly that you are a band of thieves and don't mind despicable things, I would probably have concealed it even if I was tortured.
Because I will be afraid, afraid that after saying this, you will refuse to let me join, and then I will really be desperate. "
"I have guessed everything you are going to say, so there is no need to hide it anymore. Tell it. Only in this way can you say goodbye to the past." Chen Xiaoming whispered, "I promise you in the name of the leader of the Night Butterfly Bandits that we will not They will discriminate against you, and of course they will not change their views on you.
¡°Perverts will always be perverts, I sincerely believe that. "
"Can't you let me be a little moved by your statement, Captain?" Wen smiled helplessly, "Okay, you won, but I have to say something in advance, I don't believe you guessed it.
Since you said [perverts will always be perverts], I also want to say, a soul thief will always be a soul thief! "
"You!" Chen Xiaoming roared.
"Haha." Chu Yu smiled, "I agree too."
Hongzhe, who had achieved a temporary victory, said arrogantly, "I know, although those people allowed me to join them and even gave me the position of chef, they never believed in me.
"These people are all the same. They only need my strength, but they don't care about my cooking skills.
Therefore, every time I joined different organizations in the past few years, although I chose various methods, I never confessed the following words to them.
Just because I know that once I tell them all this, no one will take me in.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? or even kill me immediately.
But, you are different.
I feel that if I don¡¯t tell you everything about me, it will be the biggest mistake of my life.
For a trainee star chef, maybe he can only meet one destiny team in his life. I am willing to bet everything on you.
Even if you are unwilling to accept me or even kill me after hearing my confession, I, Satan Hongzhe, will not hesitate.
Because, this is my fate as a trainee star chef. "
Hongzhe said with great determination, and the fire of determination and perseverance was burning in his eyes (still a real flame).
However, Chen Xiaoming didn¡¯t know if he was intimidated by his status as a soul apostle because he was so frank.
However, despite his doubts, these are unnecessary for Chen Xiaoming.
Because, no matter what the reasons were for Hongzhe to make such a decision, since his soul has not been shaken, Chen Xiaoming has no reason not to believe him.
Since Hongzhe dares to be so honest, no matter what he says later, Chen Xiaoming will consider it from the perspective of the team.
Rather than relying solely on your feelings for a person.
Chen Xiaoming knew that Hongzhe was able to make up his mind to confess everything about himself, which meant that he was determined to join the Night Butterfly Bandits.
Just like the original Liuli.
They are no longer afraid.
However, Chen Xiaoming did not expect that Hongzhe would actually reveal such a tragic or lonely past.
After receiving Chen Xiaoming¡¯s signal, Hongzhe seemed to organize his words and began to narrate his own blood and tears:
¡°Indeed, after what happened to my uncle, it¡¯s hard for me to trust others.
Therefore, although for various reasons, I urgently need to join other people's teams, I naturally have to hold back.
I must learn to protect myself so that I can survive alone in this world of strife without being taken advantage of by others.
There will be no chance of becoming a victim again, or a fighting machine without freedom.Only by maintaining my autonomy and preventing others from controlling me like this time, can I find my own team, and one day in the future, I can set foot on the road of diners again and return to Dilysus again. "
"It's not easy for you too." Chen Xiaoming shook his head and said, "So, what are your methods of retention?"
Hongzhe said, "What other means can I use, of course it is the Satan number.
"As long as I don't tell them, with their eyesight, they will never be able to see the prototype of the Satan. These star thieves would never be able to discover that this seemingly huge, even cumbersome spaceship turned out to be a pseudo-aircraft with the soul of a grass-mud horse.
In other words, no matter how they control me, I can easily leave, just like this time I escaped from the Demon Sea of ??Tears mercenary group.
The key is still in my hand. "
At this time, Wen interrupted Hongzhe's narration, shook his head and said, "Human nature is to trust others, but this world is not trustworthy.
When people are hurt again and again, and their trust is betrayed again and again, people will become unable to trust others, or even trust themselves.
For example, a young daughter-in-law¡¯s husband betrayed her and eloped with a woman. "
"Oh, how could this happen!" Liuli quickly felt sad.
Wen continued, the mask changed to a heavy expression, "This little wife wanted to get her husband back, but found that the mistress turned out to be a Tula Tula star, and his husband also had an undisclosed affair with the mistress. Human affairs have also become a Tula Tula planet."
Liuli¡¯s tears quickly dried up, ¡°¡¡.¡±
Wen said affectionately, "From this day on, this little daughter-in-law swore to kill all the Tula Tula people. From then on, she became a killer."
Liuli finally got angry, "Hey!!! I thought you were going to say that this little wife would never trust a man again!!! Why did a sad emotional scene turn out like this 1!!! This picture Who is the Tula Star!!! Why does he still appear!!!"
"Liu Li, you have to pay attention to your image. You are the iconic woman of our Night Butterfly Thieves Group. Does a Tula Tula star make you fuss?" Chen Xiaoming shook his head, like a teacher correcting an ineffective student.
"Yes. People from Tulatula are normal, right?" Hongzhe looked at Liuli in confusion, shook his head and said, "Teacher Wen, I understand what you mean. You mean that I am the same as that little daughter-in-law, who got Tulatula Is Latula sick of distrust?¡±
Wen nodded heavily, "Yes, through the analysis of this case, I can probably imagine your future."
However, Wen didn't finish speaking. Liuli stood up suddenly, flicked her hair, stepped on the chair with her high-crossed right leg, even exposing her thigh, and banged the table with her left hand.
What kind of image, what kind of lady, the actress Liuli could no longer care about it. She finally stormed off, "Hey, why do you even know about the Tulatula star? Why don't I know about it?! Isn't it just that I don't trust the disease?" Can adding a Tula Tula make it look like a difficult disease!!!
??Okay, you guys go on. Stop trying to pull the stars, otherwise I will definitely use my ultimate move, no joke. "
(It has to be said that these people are really top-notch talents for being able to force the beautiful Liuli, who always pays attention to her image and is always gentle and elegant, to be like this.
But at this time, even they didn¡¯t dare to say anything more.
And what kind of existence the Tula Tula Stars are will still be a mystery, lingering in Liuli's heart forever and becoming a shadow on her.
¡°Perhaps one day, Liuli will take this as an opportunity, and like that poor little daughter-in-law, she may change her job to become a Tula Tula killer.
Yes, this is the star realm, this is the great new world, it is always full of incredible miracles-
The First Rain)
After taking a satisfied look at the novel she had written in brackets, Chuyu raised her head with a smile, closed the notebook in the void, and continued to wait for Hongzhe's narration.
An angry Liuli finally did it, forcibly getting rid of the image of the Tulatula star in her mind, and then waited for Hongzhe fiercely, so that he would never dare to talk nonsense again.
Hongzhe, who had clearly done nothing wrong but took the blame for Wen, could only secretly wipe the sweat from his head and continued, "I paid almost everything they needed, and there is no harm to them in taking me in. Star thieves make a living by plundering resources and people.
So, I stayed in this star thief group and became a star thief.
It¡¯s just that I recommend myself to be a chef. But because I am not a star chef, although this group of star thieves gave me the position of chef, they did not let me perform any of the chef's obligations.
As a star thief group, their scope of activities is limited, so they only need a planet-level chef, not a star chef at all, let alone a trainee star chef without a star chef name.
Although my food is much better than their low-level chef, they would rather choose the old chef than let me cook next time. "
Wen chuckled and said, "It's understandable. Anyone who has been to the montage area knows the saying, 'The most terrifying killer is the chef.'"
"What should I say?" At this time, Liuli's anger gradually dissipated, and she returned to her usual ladylike image.
But it was Hongzhe who explained it himself, "It's very simple. Because the star realm is so big and traveling is so boring, creatures simply can't refuse a chef who can cook delicious dishes.
So, in the history of Montage District, there have been too many wars whose outcome was influenced by one chef.
¡°There are definitely many more people who die because of chefs than those who are killed by killers.
Therefore, in this era, it is absolutely impossible for a chef who is not a star chef to survive in the star world.
They are not qualified to travel around the star realm with the ubiquitous spacecraft. They can only live in a corner of the star realm.
This corner can be as small as a city or a planet, or as large as a galaxy or a star region.
These unqualified chefs will turn into killers once they leave their field.
Therefore, such ¡®killers¡¯ who specialize in killing their own people are consciously resisted by all star organizations.
This is also a kind of protection for the team, just like a rule not to become a star chef, so that any team can reject a trainee star chef without any scruples.
It is for this reason that the journey of being a diner is extremely difficult.
After all, the first step on the road to being a diner is to let the team give up the protection of this unwritten rule.
How to do this, whether to rely solely on cooking skills or use other means, is the test for trainee star chefs. "
Chen Xiaoming has learned a lot about Star Chef recently, so combining the explanations of the two at this time, it is not a problem to understand this old saying, "I see, I can understand this, but there is another question that is strange. .
Since they refuse to use you as a chef, then they have no reason to accept you at all.
The reason why they let you stay in their team is probably because they need your Satan number.
But, as a group of star thieves, there should be no moral principles to speak of, so why not kill you? ! Or just throw you into space, or to be kind, drop you on any planet.
I think this is what a star thief would do. "
Hongzhe shook his head and said with a sad smile, "You are right. For Star Thieves, killing people and seizing ships is a matter of course. It couldn't be simpler. There is no need for any psychological pressure at all."
