Chapter 289: Temptation
What's in it?
Glancing inside the mouth of the bag, the man insisted on being in place for several seconds before he reacted.
The contents of the bag were indeed stones, but they all looked black and gray, like small pebbles picked up from the ground.
"Momo, it's not a golden stone in here......"
When the little guy heard the man's words, his eyes widened slightly, as if he was a little dazed.
"How is that possible?"
Originally, the man was still a little angry, but he was surprised to see the little girl's expression, and his mood suddenly eased a little.
Forget it, maybe she got the wrong bag.
If you get angry with him now, you might not even get the last thing back from her.
The man thought so, and recalled the spar that Momo gave him for the first time.
Since she carries this crystal with her, she may know someone with this ability.
If there is such an outstanding person around her, the identity of the little guy must be unusual. After all, most of these high-level abilities work at the upper echelons of the Alliance...... Or the noble royal family.
And that kind of person is not something that he can afford to provoke as a little star thief.
The man knew this, so he sorted out his mood in a short time.
"Hmm......"
After Tao Tao heard his words, some sadness appeared on her little face. But soon he smiled again, and said:
"Maybe Momo got the wrong bag~"
When the little girl said this, there was a bit of grievance and self-blame in her tone, and her beautiful little face was full of frustration and looked pitiful.
Even the hard-hearted man was a little soft-hearted after responding to this appearance.
"It's okay to wait for me to return to the alliance and then look for you, it's hard for you to make such a trip."
Today's weather is not too good, and he hasn't forgotten the way the little guy ran from the alliance out of breath just now.
Tao Tao nodded, stuffed the bag back into her pocket, and then looked at him reluctantly and asked:
"Then when will Shu Huangsen go back to the alliance?"
The man is not too wary of the little one, after all, he looks like a helpless little friend.
Besides, she still has so many spars on her body, and she is still such an enthusiastic existence.
Merely...... If it's a pity, she can only blame herself for seeing the wrong person and not recognizing herself.
Thinking so, the man said vaguely for a while.
"It should take three or four hours, after all, after this matter is over, I still have to go to the underground level of the alliance."
Tao Tao didn't ask much after listening, she looked up at him very obediently, and said seriously:
"Okay~That peach peach is waiting for Shu millet in the alliance~"
On the other side, a soldier had already found out that he had turned out of the alley and nodded at the man, although there was no trace, he was still seen by the man.
He also gestured in that direction, and then looked back and heard the voice of the little one, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, you can go back."
After hearing this, Tao Tao quickly turned her head away, and the small voice disappeared in front of her.
The man hadn't paid attention to these details before, but this time he waited until the child's figure disappeared before turning his head to look at the soldiers who had been urging for a long time.
"What's urging, isn't this coming?"
The soldier's face became a little embarrassed, but he still didn't say anything, but quickly beckoned to him and said:
"Boss, we've spotted a couple of young people over here."
Hearing the specific number, the man's eyes lit up instantly.
"Let'sā"
The group quickly walked down the alley, and refugees from other places passed by, but no one dared to look at it.
I don't know how long it took for the man to finally walk out of the alley with a few soldiers, but there were a few fewer people behind him, apparently left there to guard the others.
-
On the other side, after getting her things, Tao Tao ran quickly in the direction of the main street.
Cheng Chencheng had already answered in front of him after seeing that everything was going well, and when he saw the little guy running towards him, he reached out and hugged her into his arms.
"Well done."
picked up Tao Tao and rubbed her big hand on the back of her head.
Tao was also very happy, and handed the thing that he had just taken out of the man's waist to Cheng Chencheng's hand.
"Gege, just introduce one~"
Cheng Chen stared at the shape of the key for a long time, and the size of the key was almost the same as the lock in his memory, and then he relaxed a little.
"Alright, let's go."
Tao Tao nodded and followed him in the direction of the alliance, and at the same time remembered what the man had just said to him on the way.
"By the way, Gege, that Shu Huang said he would come to me in three or four hours, and before that he would have to go back to the basement."
It is rare for the little guy to remember the man's words clearly, and Cheng Chencheng listened to it at this time, and his face became a little solemn.
"If that's the case, we'll have an hour and a half at most."
The steps of his feet, which were not slow, sped up again, and after thinking about it, he simply leaned over and hugged the little guy in his arms, and his tone of voice was a little urgent as he ran.
"He should have to do a lot of things in the basement, like send his new people to that institute, well, it should take a lot of time for him to do these things, so we have to do it quickly."
Momo didn't quite understand it at first, but now after hearing his explanation, it becomes clear.
Neither of them spoke again on the rest of the journey, but strode towards the front intently.
[Woo woo, this scene is too warm. ć
[I really think this big guy has changed a lot after coming to the game, I remember that he liked to tease Tao Tao very much. ć
[Actually, I always thought he didn't have a sense of responsibility......]
[What's more, when I saw what Tao Tao was going to face, I thought he wouldn't appear, because after all, this is just a game, everyone is here to relax and be happy, so there's no need to take these plots too seriously, anyway, Tao Tao will definitely solve it as the protagonist. ć
[Indeed, it is impressive. ć
It didn't take long for Tao Tao to arrive in the basement with Cheng Chencheng.
Now that they've got the keys, they didn't waste much time here. Following the previous route, he cautiously but quickly went to the cell.
However, this time it was not as smooth as before, and along the way they encountered many people who wore soldiers' clothes but talked in a relaxed manner, looking like a small group without organization and discipline.
Thinking that it was these people who locked the real alliance officers and soldiers under the dungeon, Cheng Chencheng's mood instantly became a little angry.
