Chapter 233 Arrival
The rooms on the starship were brightly lit.
The door made a soft sound.
A tall, thin young man with two gray cat ears walked in.
The young man had a handsome and refined appearance, with extremely fair skin that made him look very clean and clear. Surprisingly, he had a pair of cat-like eyes of different colors, one pink and one gold.
"Hello, human." The cat-beastman casually sat down on the bed where Jiang Mian was lying.
The soft bed sagged in one place.
Jiang Mian glanced at him slightly, but didn't say anything.
The cat-beastman glanced at her, its cat-like eyes flashing slightly before it quickly lay down. Just as it was about to rest its head on Jiang Mian's lap, Jiang Mian subconsciously pulled her legs back and sat up cross-legged.
And so, no one spoke, as if whoever couldn't hold on any longer would be the first to speak.
Now that they haven't imprisoned her or sent her to do hard labor, but instead prepared a nice room for her to rest and treated her wounds, they must want to get something from her.
Then the cat-beastman seemed to be the first to lose control, lying on his side and looking at Jiang Mian, casually asking, "Hey, human, don't you want to ask me what happened?"
His cat-like heterochromatic eyes curiously examined Jiang Mian's face.
He knew about Sleepless because of her comprehensive guide to treating orc wounds and various diseases published on the cloud network.
The press conference at the Imperial Capital Forum also showed him what sleepless nights look like.
So he was somewhat curious about this human.
How could someone who is clearly an Imperial researcher be so knowledgeable about the various signs and treatments of different beastmen's diseases?
After all, Imperial researchers serve the Empire, and the Empire naturally prioritizes humanity above all else.
How could they be researching things like the treatment of diseases in orcs?
Upon hearing his words, Jiang Mian seemed to react and looked at him: "There's nothing to be curious about. You didn't kill me, but instead captured me. You must want something from me. You'll tell me when the time comes."
Upon hearing this, the cat-beastman Yan Ting narrowed his eyes, then sat up nimbly, stared at Jiang Mian for a while, and then smiled: "Wow, Special Agent Jiang is so smart!"
Jiang Mian remained silent.
Yan Ting continued, "Yes, Special Agent Jiang. We brought Special Agent Jiang back so that we could explore together the experiment of the perfect fusion of machines and beastmen. Those researchers are really useless. The mechanical arms need to be replaced every ten days or so, and they also have a rejection reaction with the beastmen's bodies. So Special Agent Jiang is so smart, he can definitely solve this problem for us, right?"
"Once it's all resolved, will you let me leave?" Jiang Mian looked at him with her dark eyes.
Yan Ting's pair of dark, clear, and beautiful eyes paused slightly. Perhaps people will like what they don't have.
Because his eyes are one pink and one gold, he is very interested in other people's pure black eyes.
He quickly regained his senses, his handsome face smiling with an extremely pure and innocent expression, but his voice remained so casual: "That's hard to say, it depends on what our city lord thinks."
Jiang Mian's eyes flickered slightly when he heard the words "city lord".
Because she suddenly remembered that the beginning of the orc uprising was the beginning of the rise of the major orc lords.
"Who is your city lord?" Jiang Mian asked casually.
“Our city lord…” Yan Ting’s heterochromatic eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled, “I won’t tell you.”
Jiang Mian:......
She was naturally unaware that Yan Ting had been staring into her eyes the whole time, taking in every subtle change in her expression.
Yan Ting continued, "Alas, although our city lord is indeed very beautiful, she utterly despises humans. Don't even think about taking any shortcuts. I haven't even had the chance to get into our city lord's bed."
Jiang Mian extracted several pieces of information from his words: their city lord was a woman, and it seemed that she was indiscriminate in her relationships with men and women.
"Is your city lord a woman?" Jiang Mian asked again, but this time with an affirmative tone.
"Yes," Yan Ting replied subconsciously.
Jiang Mian asked this question only to confirm that this city lord was not one of her five beast husbands. Although she was somewhat disappointed by this news, she still composed herself.
"Oh, I see," Jiang Mian replied casually. In the early stages of the riots, various forces did indeed rise, various beast cities emerged, and powerful figures appeared.
In this pursuit and struggle, those who survived and eliminated others became the Beast Lords, the five Beast Lords in Jiang Mian's memories.
"You should stay here for now. Once we reach our main city, you can take up your post," Yan Ting said casually. "Someone will send you nutrient solutions later."
Jiang Mian paused, then called out to him, "Wait a minute, I have another question."
Yan Ting, who was about to leave, stopped and turned back to look at her: "Is there any other problem?"
"What did you inject me with while I was unconscious?" Jiang Mian was always uneasy.
Upon hearing this, Yan Ting chuckled and said, "Let me think about it. Oh, the injection is... I won't tell you."
Jiang Mian:......
What a cheeky cat.
Yan Ting left.
So Jiang Mian stayed on the starship, spending her days staring out the window and drinking nutrient solutions, with no entertainment whatsoever. The other side didn't give her any communication tools at all.
She is now completely penniless.
There were guards outside the door, and she was like a prisoner being held there.
Jiang Mian:......
However, Yanting would sometimes come over and chat with her.
It's commonly said that they're afraid she has Alzheimer's disease.
Jiang Mian:......
She felt it was okay if he didn't come.
Fortunately, such days did not last long, and they arrived at the city that Yanting had mentioned.
Jiang Mian didn't even know which planet it was.
Jiang Mian followed Yan Ting into a hovercar, which took them to a huge research institute.
The research institute is very large, and it is frequented mostly by orcs; humans are very rare.
Judging from the city, this research institute must have been established a long time ago.
Yan Ting led her into a laboratory, where Jiang Mian recognized all the equipment and instruments.
He walked up to an orc wearing a white coat and tiger ears, and casually said, "Hey, I brought you a handyman."
The orc, with his silver hair, was still adjusting the potion, not even raising his head, but his voice was arrogant and indifferent: "Don't just throw any Tom, Dick, or Harry at me."
"Oh? You really don't want it? Don't regret it later." Yan Ting smiled.
"Who goes there?" The white tiger beastman tilted his head, looking at Jiang Mian with obvious impatience.
He paused the moment he saw Jiang Mian, then exclaimed, "Sleepless, so it's Sleepless!"
The white tiger beastman seemed particularly happy.
"Oh, didn't you just say you didn't want it?" Yan Ting said deliberately.
"If you had told me who it was earlier, would I have refused?" the white tiger beastman cursed.
