Offer your allegiance to Chaos!

These words naturally refer to the heart placed on the tray.

"It is also a warning, to you, to Longmen, and to all forces outside of Syracuse."

Aixi's words are always straight to the point: "Old Wei, we are half friends. I used the knowledge in my head to help you rebuild Longmen's financial, legal and administrative systems. You also took good care of me when I wandered to Longmen. I cherish this unusual friendship very much, even if you and I have other ideas, this friendship is still friendship in my heart."

"So, you don't want me to test your wishes again?" Wei Yanwu smiled: "For this reason, you even don't hesitate to kill my guests in my city-state, my mansion, and my banquet?"

At this moment, the smile on the face of the dragon with the obvious characteristics of atavistic blood was still a smile, but it lost the previous warmth and became solemn and cold.

Obviously, Ashe's behavior tonight has already touched his bottom line.

This not only refers to the absolutely offensive act of "killing someone at a diplomatic banquet", but also refers to the meaning behind Ashe's rejection of the Texas family's olive branch tonight.

There is no doubt that Ashe is an absolute danger, whether it is the taboo knowledge in his mind or the unexplainable mysterious power in his hands, it is enough to cause great danger to the safety of the entire mobile city-state.

He has almost collapsed the financial system of a certain city-state in Ursus through a scam. Will he assassinate the leader of a certain city-state through the mysterious killing method just now?

As Wei Yanwu said, since leaving Syracuse, wherever Ashe went, the leaders of the major city-states would pay attention to his movements.

Why be so careful?There is no other reason. Taking the analogy of Ashe's previous life, it is like a free man with a small nuclear weapon detonator. No matter his age, where he comes from, or his position, as long as he exists here, it is a dangerous signal.

And how to make this free man with an explosive device no longer dangerous?It is also very simple, as long as he is no longer free, as long as he joins the citizen system of any major country and is willing to be constrained by interests, social relations and ideology, even if he does not deprive him of his detonating device, this person is still controllable.

Controllability means safety.

But now, Ai Xi rejected a self-safety statement about controllability, so, in the eyes of Wei Yanwu, a leader of a mobile city... Regardless of personal friendship, Ai Xi has become a dangerous element.

What's more, this young man has no fear, warning him and the whole Longmen?

As a leader, if he still doesn't get angry after being kicked on the nose to this point, then he won't be called Wei Yanwu.

"I know that there are now more than one blunderbuss from the Guard Bureau and more than one sword from the Great Flame Shadow Guard hiding inside and outside this mansion, and they are all targeting me."

Looking at the shadows in the night in the garden of the mansion, Ai Xi looked normal, drinking the red wine in the glass lightly, "Frankly speaking, I don't have any ability to escape alive from the ambushes of so many elite forces of the Longmen, even It is impossible to take you as a hostage—as you can imagine, the killing method just now has limitations and even has great side effects. If it is really so omnipotent and invincible as it looks, then why am I being chased away by the Sicilian lady? Drive out like a bereaved dog, and directly slaughter the country alone."

Wei Yanwu remained silent. He and the leaders of the city-states in Terra have conducted a long-term investigation on the mysterious ability of this young man, and the conclusions they have drawn are generally the same as what Ashe said frankly—no matter how much you talk about the empty city plan, if you really want to With such a powerful ability, why did he flee for so many years?

That's why he had the courage to stand with Ashe to discuss this topic.

But... do you really want to use force against him?

Thinking of this again, Wei Yanwu frowned for the countless times—since Ai Xi entered the dragon gate, this thought has indeed been moved for the countless times.

But thoughts are just thoughts after all.

because……

"But you still worry too much, old Wei." Ashe sighed, and patted Wei Yanwu's shoulder with bloody hands: "Barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, unlike me, a desperado , you are a big shot, with the entire Longmen City on your shoulders, you have too many worries to worry about, it is impossible to take the risk of hurting your muscles and bones to fight with me, so, for me, I only need to have the most important thing for you. Basic deterrent capabilities are enough."

"For example?" Wei Yanwu remained calm.

"For example, this little brother." Ashe shrugged, put the red wine back on the tray, and patted the shoulder of the waiter who had been standing beside him for a long time: "Help me get a bottle of wine, the longest in the wine cellar That bottle will do, I'll take it back for the welcome party, thank you."

"..."

Without saying a word, the waiter saluted Ashe respectfully, then turned and walked out of the hall.

"..."

Wei Yanwu's complexion had unknowingly become extremely gloomy, and he unconsciously squeezed the wine glass tightly in his hand.

——Just now, when the waiter looked up and saluted, he finally saw clearly the eyes of the waiter who had kept his head down.

It was a pair, shimmering gold...

Eyes that are lifeless and dull.

"Since when?"

After a long silence, Wei Yanwu whispered, "How many?"

"Well, who knows?" Ai Xi shrugged, smiled and narrowed her eyes, "After all, I have been in Longmen for several months, how can I not be familiar with the local customs, so I borrowed the help of business Opportunity, I made a good turn around and met some friends... How many are there? How many? Dozens? Or hundreds? Alas, the talent of hypnosis is not good, it is too convenient, too easy to fall in love , once there are many beautiful girls who have played, it is easy to forget the previous serious gains. For example, when you went to the police station that time, you accidentally immersed yourself in the "special interrogation" of the group of police girls. Even the chief Almost forgot to visit—”

run business...

Hypnotize... sleep?

So, the first big thing he did when he first came to Rhodes Island, the real intention under the exaggerated appearance, was it for this?

Wei Yanwu's palms were clenched deeply, his face was livid, and when he looked out the window at the shadowy night, what he felt in his heart was no longer peace of mind, but a bone-chilling coldness.

Who knows how many of the shadow guards outside are still his people?

But at this moment, Ashe leaned closer to his ear, and added the last fire with a smiling voice:

"—By the way, your niece is quite nice."

Chapter 26 The Lost Dog Pulls the Dog

Xiongxiong is worthy of being a Xiongxiong.

In the end, Wei Yanwu was still not irritated by Aixi's words. The leader of Longmen, who was very deep in the city, chose to leave the banquet hall without saying a word. He didn't know whether to search for the ghost in the team, or to take his niece Chen to the hospital for medical treatment. Full body check up.

Ai Xi, who was left in the same place, did not end up in the tragic end of walking home alone. Wei Yanwu still kept the last trace of decency and left him a car, of course, without a driver.

Carrying the million-dollar red wine from the wine cellar, Ashe hummed a little tune, and drove all the way back to Penguin Logistics' headquarters, the bar at the end of the earth, without a license.

The welcome party was delayed for more than an hour for him. At this time, it finally started. Driven by Angel, Kong, Croissant and Ai Xi, the bar became a sea of ​​joy.

Ribbons, bubbles, and cake cream flew in the air, making a mess of the originally clean and quiet bar, but it was full of festive atmosphere. Almost everyone was smiling, even Texas, who wanted to eat chocolate quietly. They were all covered in cakes by the angels, so they had to show a helpless and doting smile and joined the hustle and bustle.

By nine o'clock in the evening, most of the people were exhausted from playing and drunk - the bottle of vintage wine that Aixi brought was indeed powerful. Apart from the delicious food, it also had a strong stamina. Angel and Croissant almost passed out on the table, Kong also collapsed after taking two small sips, rubbing his face against her calf with his Texas boots, staining the black stockings with saliva, hehe Laughing and talking nonsense, his hand would cling to his thigh dishonestly from time to time, and was knocked down by the helpless Texas.

In the end, not counting the emperor who secretly took the half-bottle of Ashe's wine back to his room for exclusive use, only Ashe, Laplande and Texas were left with a clear mind on the field. group of people.

Ashe is used to good wine and has been in battle for a long time. Laplande's self-consciousness as a soldier prevented her from drinking much from the beginning. Texas' past also made her adapt to the wine scene. The three will drink The drunk three moved back to the room and briefly cleaned the bar.

When all the dust settled, it was more than ten o'clock. The three of them looked at the clock and looked at each other. No one spoke, but no one took the initiative to go back to the room to rest. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Obviously, both Lapland and Texas have doubts about the night banquet that Ashe attended before, but for various reasons, they don’t know how to speak——Lapland just broke out. Emotional entanglements, Texas is a feud that has been accumulated for many years.

Perhaps, if any one of the two exited the scene, the remaining one would have room to speak, but the two looked at each other, and neither of them had the intention of voluntarily accommodating.

In the end, it was Ashe who broke the silence and embarrassment.

He sighed, smiled and said:

"Want to take a hot spring together?"

……

……

As I said before, there is a hot spring bathroom on the top floor of the bar, which is considered a special employee benefit. As usual, as the only male, it is naturally difficult for Aixi to find a chance to soak in the hot spring among a group of girls.

But now, several old employees are sleeping in the dormitory. As old acquaintances who can't be more familiar, Ashe, Laplande and Texas naturally have the opportunity to soak in the hot spring together.

Mixed bathing by three people, men and women, sounds quite messy, and one can immediately think of many unhealthy little yellow books, but for the three of Ashe, it is not such a novel experience.

The reason is very simple. Needless to say, Ashe and Dexas have already formed a fiancée relationship. Although they cannot be said to be very close in their hearts, it is still normal to take a bath in a large Roman-style bathroom together occasionally.And Laplande, on the one hand, is the mutual best friend of the two, on the other hand, he was the strongest warrior in Syracuse and served as the personal bodyguard of Texas for a long time. In such an empty space in the Roman bathroom, it is natural Inseparable from her existence.

The three of them have special identities, and they always see intrigues and entanglements of interests. They don't have the romance that adolescent boys and girls should have, and their gender concepts are quite weak.

However, that is a thing of the past.

The atmosphere of today's mixed bath is obviously a little weird.

"..."

After a brief wash, the three of them all entered the bathtub, but still no one spoke. Not only that, the three of them were separated in a triangle, far away from each other, and leaned against the three edges of the circular bathtub.

In the steaming mist, it was almost impossible to see each other's faces clearly.

For Ashe, this posture is his normal state from the past. After all, this damned forever 15-year-old body is always full of adolescent restlessness, and he really wants to stick to the watery girl in the bath Approaching zero distance, physical reaction is 100% the end, and Laplande is by his side, it is impossible for him to ask Texas to help him solve the problem in front of the bodyguard and best friend lady. Hold on—is there anything more painful in the world?

It's better to be out of sight and pure in mind, stay away, and quietly enjoy the "spiritual beauty" of mixing baths with beautiful girls.

And the entanglement between Texas and Lapland is naturally due to the reasons mentioned above. Between Ashe, one is entanglement, the other is feud, and the other party...it is more complicated , more messy than messy.

In the end, after a long silence, Ashe broke the embarrassment for the second time. He briefly narrated what happened in Wei Yanwu's mansion, including killing members of the Texas family. After all, it is one of his trump cards. What he said is unnecessary, and it is easy to make the two women feel uneasy-he has never used the talent of hypnosis on them. To be precise, for some reason, he did not It can't be used against these two people, but with his bad performance in the past, people have to believe what he said?

After hearing the whole story, the three fell into silence again. This time, it was Laplande who broke the silence first.

"So at least you're not going back to Syracuse?"

Since that special "confession", Laplande's mood has been not quite right. Compared with the previous activeness, it seems to be much lower, as if he is thinking about something repeatedly in his mind, taking up too much memory same space.

At this moment, she looked directly at Ashe, and even the fog could not block the sharpness of her eyes: "Then what are you going to do? Now that you have a killing order from Ms. Sicily, and you have completely offended the Restoration Alliance and even Longmen, you Are you going to hide in Penguin Logistics and wait for the enemy to come to your door? Or leave Longmen and continue your wandering career? Let me tell you first, although I am destined to follow you, I don’t want to live a ghostly life in the wilderness again.”

Ashe didn't immediately answer Laplande's question. He was more concerned about Texas' attitude towards this matter than the "future direction" that Laplande had been asking from the very beginning.

And this ignoring gesture sharpened Laplande's eyes a little bit. She glanced at Texas beside her and snorted softly.

"...I have no opinion."

Texas finally spoke, his voice still indifferent and even ethereal, "Whether you kill someone or refuse the invitation, it has nothing to do with me. I am no longer the leader of the family, and I don't care about the current situation in Syracuse. I just want to I want to stay in Penguin Logistics quietly and be my own messenger."

"Speaking lightly, my lady."

Although it was expected, Ashe still couldn't help frowning: "You think you're done with autism? I rejected it, and the only option left for Albert is to bring you back to Syracuse, even if It's the same if you are forced to take you back, not to mention there is a hunting order. Even if you reject the family, outsiders don't know it. They will only see that the leader of the Texas family summoned her subordinates at the Longmen ——With your current ability, how many times can you avoid being hunted down?"

"..."

Texas didn't speak. She squatted on the edge of the bath, leaning against the pool wall, hugged her knees, lowered her head, and bubbles began to bubble out of the water.

autism.jpg.

...and quite cute.

Ashe covered her face, and was a little caught off guard by the unexpectedly soft and cute Miss Godfather in front of her. Yes, he expected that Texas would undergo a big change after everything was over, but he didn't expect this change to be surprisingly big , What's the matter with being autistic for three years?

In his vision, Texas, freed from the shackles of family and sin, should be——

"After all, what does Texas have to do with you now?"

Her thoughts were interrupted, and unexpectedly it was Laplande who spoke. Ashe raised her head slightly in astonishment, and saw the cold face of her best friend.

"Don't forget, no matter how intimate you are, even if you are naked in the same bath as you are now, you are still a traitor. It’s the past, sooner or later it will catch up, you can’t erase this imprint.”

"If you are like this, why do you want to put on an appearance of a close friend and think about her future choices for Texas? Why don't you say hello after completing your mission as a traitor like three years ago? You don’t need to spank, just pat your butt and leave?”

"Or, is this just the beginning of another exploit? Which 'master' ordered you? Ordering you to persuade Texas to face the past, and after you succeed, you can beg for mercy in front of the master and get rewards?"

The unexpected backstab made the words prepared in Ashe's mind useless. He stared at Laplande in a daze, and smiled wryly for a while.

The unexpected "solidarity" made Texas, who was bowing his head and shutting himself up, couldn't help raising his head and staring blankly at his old friend.

The atmosphere was completely frozen for a while.

Until Ashe's words sounded again.

"What if I say it's because I like Texas?"

The voice fell.

At this moment, Laplande's sarcastic expression was completely frozen on his face.

Chapter 27 Defeated dog pulls the dog, come again dignifiedly!

"Like? Are you kidding me? Didn't you say you didn't understand—"

Whether it was due to jealousy or anger, or both, Laplande's face became slightly distorted.

"I don't understand love, but liking is not love."

Ashe shook her head: "I can still distinguish this feeling... I like Texas, but at least for now, it's just a favorite among friends."

"Even if that's the case, you are not qualified to call yourself a friend of Texas." Laplande was taken aback, his expression slightly relieved, but soon became cold again: "The same sentence, you betrayed her , you used her, you—”

The voice was interrupted by Ashe's sudden high-pitched words.

"Think of Syracuse in the past! Lapland!"

Unknowingly, Ashe's eyes became as sharp as a blade, "Think about what kind of hell it is? Thousands of people trample on the pyramids made of millions of human bones to overlook the world, crowned one by one. The vampires with the glory of the ancient family are eating the flesh of the people at the bottom. Murder, theft, robbery, gang fights, the highest record is that tens of thousands of people died in one day from gunshots, swords, sticks and even beating to death with fists; drug trafficking, The streets and alleys are full of firewood shaped like dry bones with dense pinholes on their arms. An addict's baby will be born with countless diseases; human organ trading, illegal organs in the entire Terra continent Almost all of them originated from Syracuse, from the living people whose internal organs were removed while howling on the operating table... Millions of people, millions of people have lived in this purgatory for generations... "

"Especially, drug trafficking..." Thinking of this word, Ashe's eyes turned cold for some time, and every word seemed to be quenched with murderous intent: "I don't want to tell you why I am the only one who is the most I hate it, I just want to tell you that from the first day I set foot in Rome, I wanted to burn this rotten city-state to ashes, of course, including every family involved in poisoning, every family in the family Members, I'm going to kill them all without leaving a single head - not even Texas."

"..." At this moment, both Texas and Lapland were stunned, and Lapland thought of something, and asked in disbelief: "Wait, hate that kind of thing, don't you? The crisis that started in Mivasil was also because—”

"Who made it the source of poison and the trading center of the entire Ursas?" Ashe's cold voice answered her: "Since passing by, let's clean it up."

"So, what exactly do you want to say?" There was another brief silence, and Laplande's tone became a bit difficult: "I admit that the Syracuse back then, and the family back then, were indeed rotten to the bone. Maybe what she did was just, maybe it was a good thing for Dexas, she didn't like those things from the beginning, maybe the current life is the happiness she pursues... But it is different from What does it matter what we are discussing? In any case, even under the banner of justice, even if you dragged Texas out of hell, you still betrayed your best friend. Are you trying to stand on the moral high ground? looking down on us? If so, all I can say is—”

"Are you kidding me? There's no justice, no moral high ground."
