Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 195 Silence of the Lambs

Ning Ruyue sat in the corner of the restaurant with a lunch box in her hand, feeling nervous.

Sitting opposite her was a little girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with beautiful long dark blond hair and delicate features like a Barbie doll. When she saw her sit down, the little girl nodded slightly at her, then gracefully bit off a small piece of meat from the fried chicken leg, and a happy expression immediately appeared on her face.

She knew this little girl from the choir. After hearing her playing the piano, she took the initiative to come up to her.

This was the first friend she made on the flagship, and it should have been a relaxing and happy start. However, Ning Ruyue accidentally discovered the secret of this new friend after the choir activity ended - this was not her usual self, and it seemed that she would only appear in this way during choir activities and meals.

This friend usually dresses in a large, ill-fitting black cloak, a golden mask on his face, and a hood over his head, giving him a very gloomy demeanor.

Baptism, this is the name of the new friend.

Her other identity is the inspector of the Embers Consortium and the real owner of this flagship.

This made Ning Ruyue feel under great pressure.

But this might be an opportunity. Teacher Ming Yuan said that the inspector holds the power to judge civilizations. She can push Blue Star to sign a non-interference treaty with the company and recommend them to join the Sixteen Star Summit. She can also assess Blue Star as a planet corrupted by "cancer". At that time, the destruction fleet of the Universal Company will descend here and destroy the planet in artillery fire.

Ning Ruyue found it hard to imagine that their fate, and even the fate of the entire planet, was in the hands of a child who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old.

After much thought, she decided to confront the other party and reveal that she knew his identity as an inspector.

However, communication with Baptism is very difficult.

Since they met, the child hasn't said a word, not even made a sound. Her face is expressionless, just like a real porcelain doll.

Even the name "baptism" was said by the eyeball robot that had been following her.

Baptist's role in the choir was to play an instrument and he was close to the choir, but he never joined them.

Ning Ruyue always felt that this inspector was a little unpredictable. Logically speaking, there were so many changes in the flagship, Black Mass made a fool of himself in public, and the executive chef rolled down the stairs. Those were all her direct subordinates, and the inspector should be furious. However, Baptism seemed somewhat happy instead.

This abnormal phenomenon made Ning Ruyue very uneasy.

She tossed and turned in bed for a long time last night, and couldn't understand the purpose of baptism requiring them to live on the ship as believers for three days.

Did she really think that she could turn them into devout followers of the Sun King in just three days?
You have to know that the Huagang Group and Qinghua have implemented powerful rule in the court for hundreds of years, but they failed to brainwash her and the third prince.

Ning Ruyue didn't find anything attractive about the life of believers.

Instead of continuing to let your imagination run wild, it would be better to ask the inspector directly what he thinks.

She coughed lightly and successfully attracted Baptism's attention.

"Actually, I saw you changing your clothes yesterday."

Hearing this, Jinli tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

"So I know you are actually the inspector."

Jinli's expression remained calm. She nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.

She didn't seem to mind people knowing her true identity.

Not bad, at least we can still communicate normally.

Ning Ruyue breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time cheered herself up in her heart. Although Baptism looked like a weak porcelain doll, the combat power of each inspector was terrifyingly strong. They were the best selected from billions of believers, and their control over the energy of the scorching sun had already reached the level of perfection.

The Inspectors of the Embers Consortium are the only civilian positions in the company who do not need to be escorted by the Longbranch Guards. It is rumored that if a fight breaks out, their combat capabilities will definitely not be inferior to those of the Longbranch Guards.

At this distance, if Jin Li wanted to kill her, he would be able to do it in the blink of an eye. "Aren't you angry?"

Facing Ning Ruyue's question, Jinli once again showed a puzzled look, which was asking her "why".

"Because we caused such a big commotion on your flagship and injured your subordinates."

Baptism suddenly realized and then shook his head.

There's nothing to be angry about.

"Why do you want us to live as believers on the flagship for three days?"

"Because I heard about you."

The eyeball robot raised its head and floated to Ning Ruyue's side. Jinli stopped staring at Ning Ruyue and immersed herself in enjoying the rare delicacies in the restaurant cafeteria. She seemed to be in tune with the eyeball robot, and the eyeball robot would express everything she was thinking.

The eyeball robot continued, "You have a very rebellious spirit."

"Do you want to kill our spirit?"

Ning Ruyue tried to figure out the purpose of the baptism.

Black Mass regards Duan Mingyuan as an unclean person, while the executive chef's ideas run counter to Jiu Yue's. The encounter between these two incompatible people is naturally not going to end well.

"I hope you can carry on the spirit of resistance."

The unexpected answer left Ning Ruyue stunned for a long while.

"The people sent to the flagship by our headquarters are very annoying. No matter what method you use, teach them a lesson. This is the content of the trial."

?

Ning Ruyue couldn't believe her ears.

This is clearly the talk of a 15 or 16-year-old kid. They imagine the inspector to be mysterious and profound, and believe that these three days have a great purpose and will bring about great changes in their cognition and outlook on life. As a result, Baptism invited these "rebellious people" onto her ship just to teach a lesson to those subordinates who were forcibly assigned to her by the consortium?

It seems that what the eyeball robot said when they first met was actually intended to stimulate their rebellious psychology.

"If you teach them a lesson, I will write you a letter of recommendation."

The eyebot's response once again reinforces that baptism is no joke.

This kid...

He seems to be a very pure person.

"That's what I originally thought, but after hearing your piano playing, I changed my mind. I really like your piano playing. Do you want to stay on my flagship? Your world is really too small. I can take you to see a wider universe. In fact, there's nothing wrong with becoming the jurisdiction of the Embers Consortium."

"Thank you for your invitation, but there are still many people waiting for me on Blue Star."

Ning Ruyue refused.

The eyeball robot stopped talking, lowered its head, and slowly returned to Baptism.

Baptism no longer looked up and fell into complete silence.
