It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

The six-pointed star tried hard to recall, but the more he thought about it, the more disappointed he became. He lowered his eyes dejectedly, [I’m sorry…]

"No need to be sorry, it's not your fault."

Lin Yue held her cold mechanical hand and said seriously, "But since you don't have a name, I'll give you one... From now on, I'll call you Lin Xing, okay?"

【Why? 】

"I have had similar experiences as you. From now on, let me protect you."

Lin Yue said seriously, "If you are willing, you will be... my sister in the future."

"Ah, I just don't know who is older between us. If you are older than me, I can call you sister..."

[Then...sister? ]

Seeing her suddenly become shy after her domineering words, the hexagram tilted its head and laughed unconsciously.

It was obvious that she was somewhat touched by being treated like this.

"Ah."

The two held hands and smiled at each other.

"Then you should have a good rest first. By the way, how do you replenish your energy? Electricity or fuel? I'll go get some for you."

[Just charge it, thank you for your help, sister. 】

Lin Xing changed his words quickly, but when Lin Yue was about to leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something and grabbed the corner of her clothes.

[Sister, you just mentioned "Spark"... Is it the "Spark" led by Chief Shen He before? ]

"Yes, what's the matter?"

Lin Yue nodded. Ever since Shen He joined "Disger", the name "Starfire" had disappeared, so after returning to Sin City, she picked up this banner again.

[Has there ever been an engineer named Luo in your organization? ]

"Ok?"

In a strange way, the sisters were realized.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 77: So Strange, I Worship You Again

Lin Yue was shocked when she saw what Lin Xing wrote on the blackboard.

The person the other party was talking about was obviously Luo Zhikang... After all, he was a capable operator of "Starfire" in the past, and Lin Yue knew a lot about him.

She knew very well that the old man's position in the organization should not be underestimated, and that Spark's current state was closely related to his capture.

But she didn't expect to hear news about him from Lin Xing.

"...How much do you know about Mr. Luo?"

Lin Yue turned around and sat back, asking seriously.

[I don’t know much about it, except that when I was caught in the “snake ring”, I was locked up next to him for a while.]

Lin Xing blinked, seemingly not expecting such a big reaction from his sister. [At that time, Xu Shi would often torture him, and I knew a little bit about it.]

"Is he still alive now?" Lin Yue asked again.

[I can only be sure that he was not dead before I underwent transformation.]

"..."

After learning this information, Lin Yue's brain started working rapidly.

This matter cannot be underestimated. It has not been long since Lin Xing underwent transformation, and the chance that Luo Zhikang is still alive is not small.

But she also knew that she had to take action and find a way to rescue him as soon as possible... After all, with Xu Shi's personality, she couldn't rely on any luck.

But she is far from enough to do this kind of thing. With more than a dozen people and seven or eight guns under her command, it is simply a fantasy to talk about saving people.

So, after carefully asking Lin Xing for more information, she chose to pass this information to Shen He.

There's only so much I can do for you.

……

Sin City, District 6.

"Mr. Luo... is he still alive?"

When Shen He saw the news, his reaction was also quite surprised.

Although Lin Yue has left the organization, the two have not completely lost contact. Not long ago, the other party sent a message to tell him that he had suffered a loss at the hands of Xu Shi and told him to be careful with him.

She didn't need to say this, Shen He already knew it very well. The other party's methods and oppression were completely beyond his expectations, otherwise he would not have fallen to this point.

During the time he was dormant in "Disger" to regroup and accumulate strength again, he was always thinking about the day when he could fight back and avenge his previous defeat.

Then now...

To be honest, he was a little hesitant.

Having suffered so many losses at the hands of Xu Shi, it was impossible for him to have learned no lesson at all. He quickly realized that there must be something fishy about the other party not killing Luo Zhikang.

If I lose my mind and rush to rescue them without any consideration, I might end up repeating the mistake of District 13, or even worse.

But he had to save him. Putting aside the relationship between him and Luo Zhikang, the other party's ability was also crucial to him.

During the time he joined "Disger", he has used his ability of "United as One" to secretly win over many people from Zhang Shijun. On the surface, he is still the small leader of those blocks, but if you really count, nearly half of the people in "Disger" can be used by him.

Naturally, there are many talented people in mechanics among them, and they are very good at modifying sex dolls, but when it comes to the armed parts, the level they show is a world apart from Luo Zhikang.

How can we revive the "Milky Way" with those insects?

So, after thinking for a long time, he made a decision.

We must rescue them, but we must come up with a foolproof plan.

He might not be without advantages either - Xu Shi might not know that he had learned the news. After all, Lin Yue also said that she learned about it by accident, and he had not been able to find out the situation in this regard before.

Maybe it was because he was distracted by the assassination attempt recently? Or maybe he never took me seriously and just wanted to seduce me as a diversion?

But no matter which one it is, it will always give him a slight advantage, especially since the information Lin Yue provided was quite detailed, even revealing the approximate location where Luo Zhikang was imprisoned.

What is needed now is an opportunity.

A perfect opportunity for him to attack or defend.

……

"What a kind child."

In the office, looking at the images sent back, Xu Shi felt a rare sense of guilt.

Hexagram, oh no, now he should be called Lin Xing. Naturally, he is a hidden chess piece he sent to Lin Yue.

The other party has long been an emotionless killing machine. Even the sisters holding hands and laughing at each other do not have that kind of ability at all.

In fact, those words were all manipulated by himself to communicate with her - the black doctor in Sin City was not capable of discovering the miniature camera in Lin Xingyi's eyes, and he had already commissioned Jiang Chengcheng to make relevant modifications to it.

It can be said that every move of Lin Yue was visible to him, and tracing back to the origin of the sworn sisterhood with her... it seemed that it was also him, Xu Shi.

So weird, I'll bow again (bushi)

The reason why he did this, of course, was to better monitor Lin Yue.

After all, if he really had to choose between Ding Jun and Lin Yue, he would prefer the latter.

After all, the child is relatively innocent, and he had already planted the seeds in her a long time ago. It is easier to control her than Ding Jun, and he feels more at ease using her to take root in Sin City.

Keeping Lin Xing by her side would allow her to recall from time to time the short, beautiful and warm time they had spent together before.

Another purpose is to use her to pass on the news about Luo Zhikang - if Shen He jumps again, I'm afraid that "Disger" will be completely eaten up by him. I have been talking about increasing his strength, and it seems that the time is about right.

However, he knew in his heart that after the lessons learned from the previous times, he was afraid that the other party might not act rashly. The target left for him this time was the headquarters building of the "Snake Ring", which would have been postponed for a long time in the original book.

Then I have to give him some more bait... Thinking of this, Xu Shi turned off the bracelet, stood up and walked towards Ye Shanshan in front of him.

After wearing "Silence" for a few days, the little Curly is now very well behaved. He does whatever he is asked to do and also does the task of transporting weapons to the "Long Knife Party" perfectly, efficiently and secretly.

Even the "woooo" sound hardly came out.

And when Xu Shi took off the "Silence" for her, her reaction was a little bit unbelievable.

"Is this... the end?"

After confirming that she was not dreaming, Ye Shanshan rubbed her cheeks and asked tentatively.

She felt like she couldn't even speak anymore.

"Yes."

Xu Shi smiled and nodded, "We agreed that the punishment will end when Su Lin comes back. She will be back to work tomorrow, and Miss Ye can be free too."

"Or do you want to wear it for a few more days? If that's the case, it's not impossible."

“…I don’t want to.”

Little Curly waved his hands quickly and pouted, "Thank you, Mr. Xu, for being magnanimous. I know I was wrong and I won't make the same mistake again."

She must be crazy to want to wear this. She cannot speak, can only eat liquid food, and has to be wrapped tightly no matter what she does... The most torturous thing is when she has to report the situation to Xie Qingyan. Fortunately, she doesn't have to report in person these few days, and the excuse of "I'm sick and my throat can't speak" is about to be revealed.

If she didn't take it off, she wouldn't know what to do.

But although she appeared grateful on the surface, Ye Shanshan still complained about Xu Shi a thousand times in her heart, just wait!

"I'm glad you think so."

Xu Shi rubbed her head with a smile, then dialed Xie Qingyan's number.

The other party seemed to have expected it and answered the call immediately.

"What's the matter?" they both asked in unison.

"Never mind, ladies first."

After an awkward moment, Xu Shi broke the silence.

"Mr. Xu is truly a gentleman."
