"-Master?"

The strangler was silent for a while, and then said coldly, "Joke." No one can be my master. ”

There were no blood-red flames in his pupils, but there seemed to be an inexhaustible rage that clung to the iris like dead flesh.

"I obey the Godfather because he is stronger than I am today.

"I followed his orders because I was learning from his actions and making up for myself. It's also because there are some things that only he can do. For example, to bring everyone together...... For example, accepting people from Uptown into the 'family'.

"There's no doubt I'm not going to be able to do that."

Strangling criticized himself without tactfulness: "I don't have that kind of energy, and I don't have that kind of charisma." I'm used to leading life in the White Lion group, and my vision has become too narrow to accommodate the people around me; I also don't have the patience to deal with outsiders, nor the verbal ability to persuade them; When it comes to leadership and command, it is limited to small organizations like the White Lion Group...... I guess it's not as good as the woman with ale.

"Not even the purity of my anger is comparable to that of the Godfather. That man is a man who is angry with the world from the bottom of his heart...... Even the Way of the Furnace, he has to go further than me. It's a height I would never be able to chase. ”

Although the white lion was sincerely praising the godfather, the others present always felt a strange sense of dislocation:

For the words of strangulation are not flattery, nor loyalty...... What ignited under his eyes was a flame called "ambition".

That's why I want to follow him. Like the young men of the White Lions, they are much better at following me than the leaders of the smaller organizations. For I will protect them, and I will not crush them easily—men are born to follow the strongest. Following the weak will only bring misfortune, because the gathering of the weak and the weak will only invite greater misfortune.

"I'm going to learn from his every move and hone my own abilities. Later, one day...... When the godfather becomes weaker, I may not be able to sit in that position. ”

Even in front of the inferior ones recruited by his godfather, Strangling never hid his ambitions.

That's the pride of strangulation.

"Aren't you worried about me talking to my godfather?"

A cacophony of mechanical synthesizes, coming from the helmet worn by the inferior.

Strangling was dismissive of this: "You just go and say it, the inferior."

"You've known the Godfather for too short. You can't understand the Godfather's measure...... He's fundamentally different from you uptown company dogs.

"From the first time I met him, I knew that this man had an extraordinary bearing. He knew that I was fangs open and hot breath on him, but he was undaunted and did not shy away from it.

"He looked directly at my wildness, accepted the fact that I had murderous intent and wildness towards him, and knew that I was not completely loyal to him...... He promised me that I could betray when I saw fit.

"—because the godfather has extraordinary self-confidence. He was confident that I would never betray him...... Because he'll never show his flaws. ”

Although the words are full of murderous intent towards the godfather, there is undisguised wildness in the eyebrows......

Although he himself said that he had never tamed the godfather-

But in Dr. Paradise's opinion, the white lion has already unconsciously chosen to succumb.

His words were full of admiration that he did not even admit himself. Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that he had already succumbed to the rule of the godfather.

"As for what you said...... What does he want to make the world look like? ”

Strangling glanced at the detective and sneered: "Then I might as well tell you about it."

"He gave me an analogy. The circus will tame the lions to get them to put on some shows, but no matter how tamed they are, there is always a chance that the lion will attack the lion trainer. Because the lion never has 'loyalty' to speak of—since he has never sworn allegiance, there is no such thing as betrayal.

"I asked him, what are you going to do with me, the untamed lion?

"He said, I'm going to make you human."

Strangler's tone unconsciously calmed down when he said this.

To the surprise of Dr. Paradise and the inferior, it was ......

The originally enraged countenance of the strangulation, the unconcealed wild fire under the eyes, turned out to be quiet at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The crazy and disorderly temperament of the strangulation, the dangerous feeling of madness is also dissipating, and it is gradually becoming rational.

At that moment, it was as if he had changed from a "standing lion" to a "man with the head of a lion".

The Godfather said...... I'm going to let you tame yourself. Make you the one who wears the lion puppet and the one who pretends to be a lion.

"And he said, I will let you, beasts, know from the bottom of your heart...... How good it is to be a person. ”

Strangling looked at the detective and said word by word: "What the Godfather wants to create is a world where lions don't need to bite off the head of the lion trainer to be happy and free." A world of equality, a world where there is no discrimination, a world where you don't have to sell your soul to survive with your head held high. That's the world that ordinary people want.

"I remember every word my godfather said, every word was good. Because every word he says comes from the heart, it is something that can really fall on the ground, not a disguise or a show, nor an empty prayer or philosophy.

"The Godfather is inherently different from those of you who glow with halos. You people, praying to the gods in a decent way, stealing power by deceiving the gods...... I look down on you.

"What cyber immortality you're after—even if it doesn't matter what you said, I don't think it matters.

"The thing people seek is not eternal life, but happiness. You deliberately confuse this concept by promising only eternal life without promising what kind of eternal life it is...... In my opinion, you are as inferior as Shensane Heavy Industries.

"It's all liars. It makes no difference whether you have someone to trust you or someone who works for you. They all deceive people, they all deceive people's hearts, what is the difference? ”

This is the rationality that strangulation would never have on weekdays.

Only when he mentions the Godfather can he think and speak so calmly.

In this respect, the Church Father did fulfill his promise that he was trying to transform the "beast" into a "man".

The detective stared at the strangulation, as if shaken by his words. It was as if I felt the charm of the godfather in the mouth of the strangulation...... He exhaled deeply.

"That's ...... so"

The detective shook his head, as if he had lost interest in continuing his conversation with the strangulation, and got up to say goodbye.

But just as the detective was walking at the door, the middle-aged man suddenly looked back at Strangulation.

"Let me explain to you, I'm not the same as the people in the church."

The detective stared at the strangulation and said calmly: "The power of my holy rank does not rely on deception of God. I got it on my own.

"The godfather of your mouth does have a great ideal. But if one day, for the sake of this ideal, he wantonly harms the world and indiscriminately harms the innocent...... I'm still going to stand up and stop him, kill him.

"I'm a detective, and the meaning of life is to find the truth...... I am a ghost of the past. It is the enemy of the elves and dragons.

"If the Godfather's influence swells infinitely, and eventually becomes a tyrant like the elves and dragons—if the Godfather has no enemies. Then I will be your godfather's worst enemy. ”
