Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

Said seemed frozen in place, silently watching Sofia's movements, as if anticipating something.

After Saeed's mask was completely removed, Sofia's pupils dilated instantly, a reaction that Saeed naturally did not miss.

"I'm sorry, I scared you."

Said wanted to put the mask back on, but Sofia stopped him. After looking at her again, Said noticed that Sofia's eyes were red.

“I wasn’t scared. I said before, I… I was just heartbroken. You must have been in a lot of pain back then.”

Chapter 537 Cause and Effect (2)

Said was stunned when he heard Sophia's words. He had prepared himself for the scene of Sophia being frightened by him, but what he did not expect was that Sophia would say that she felt sorry for him.

The next moment, Sofia hugged Said tightly and said in a slightly tearful voice:

"You must have been in so much pain and despair back then. When I saw my grandfather die in front of me, I even thought about going down to join him. But you were watching an entire village die in front of you. You must have been in so much pain!"

Even the real man, Said, couldn't hold back any longer. His nose tingled, and tears silently blurred his vision.

After his father died, Said never shed another tear. He said he would avenge his father and the people of the village. He would no longer be cowardly and would not shed another tear.

But after hearing Sofia's words of comfort, Said dropped all his pretense and hugged Sofia, bursting into tears.

“I just wanted my dad and the others to come back. At first, I just wanted to protect my little village, but... but I couldn’t do anything. I was just hanging there, and I could only watch them fall one by one. I’m not as great as people say. I just hope that my people won’t die in front of me anymore.”

"So what you are doing now is not just for yourself, but also for the people of Asara. We are not alone now. You have me, Abel and Wuming, and Xiaohao. What we need to do now is to unite the people of Asara and give each of them the right to enjoy happiness."

After humming in response while holding Sofia, Said seemed to regain his composure, put his mask back on, and said to her:

“You’re right, Sophia. I’ve avenged my father. Although that bastard Hamk is still alive, I think he’ll crave death in the days to come. What I need to do next is what Xiao Hao said back then: since these Asara leaders all have their own ulterior motives.”

“Very well, then I will lead the people of Asara to break free from their shackles, I will lead the people of Asara to freedom and peace, so that those newborns will not be tormented by war like we have been!”

Seeing Said regain his confidence, Sofia smiled faintly. This was the real Said, the Said that people living in Dam Zero saw.

"I will always be with you, always..."

Unfortunately, the voice was too soft, so Said, who had stood up, didn't hear it. Otherwise, Said would have given Sofia a real demonstration of what it means to blush on the spot, though of course, the mask would have obscured it.

"Boss, the person is already in the back of the car, shall we go?"

Abel and Nameless also came out at this moment. Looking at Sofia with red eyes and Said with a calm face, Abel couldn't help but sigh that his boss's emotional intelligence had finally improved a bit, and he knew to comfort Sofia.

Fortunately, these were just thoughts in Abel's mind, and he didn't say them out loud. Otherwise, Said would definitely have to find a secluded place to hide. This wasn't him comforting Sophia; it was clearly Sophia comforting him. He had just hugged her and cried his heart out.

"Ahem, let's go back and hand Hamk over to the brothers. His nightmare has only just begun."

After saying that, Said took Sofia's hand and naturally walked towards the parking lot. Abel, who saw this, immediately showed an "I knew it" expression, and then said to the nameless person beside him:

"Hey, look, Boss Said has finally come to his senses! Now he even takes Sophia's hand. I used to ship them so much, but Boss Said was such a straight man back then. I was even thinking of having him read more books and learn something new. I never expected their relationship to develop so quickly."

Unfortunately, Wuming had absolutely no interest in this. In his view, it was just that the two demons had taken a liking to each other, and one of them had attacked him the first time they met.

The other person not only didn't stop him, but also filmed all of his embarrassing moments, which was an unforgettable dark history for Wuming.

Moreover, this Said even tried to lure me into writing math for him with cornbread, but the problem was that I didn't know the Chinese math he was writing. And that Sophia was the same; she was fine most of the time, but once things got complicated, she would capture me and make me her slave.

What? You mean why didn't they go and catch Abel? Wuming could only say that there was no need to catch him at all; he just happily went to work overtime on his own.

Nameless: You're really something! I'm a military general, and you're making me work on a desk to process documents? Don't I have any shame?

Anonymous said that he also regrets it every night, wondering if things would be completely different if he hadn't driven from the GTI to this place.

Zhang Hao: Uh... Actually, no. If we were in the Special Operations Department, I think the current trio would probably become a gang of four. Tsk tsk tsk, I can't even imagine that scene.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

After bringing Hamk back to the dam, Said immediately convened a meeting of squad leaders and had Abel take stock of those who had been persecuted by Hamk. After collecting the list, it was time to make that bastard Hamk begin his atonement.

"Phew! Everything's arranged. I feel a bit melancholy. I'll make a video call to Xiao Hao."

Said leaned back in his office chair, looking at the ceiling and sighing. Hamk, who could be said to have been able to compete with Reese just two years ago, has basically come to an end. He felt a little sad.

"Hey? Uncle Said, what brings you to call me today?"

Chapter 538 Said: Xiao Hao, have you been kidnapped? (1)

After seeing Zhang Hao, Said wanted to tell him about his ambitions after dealing with Hamk, but at that moment, a very familiar mechanical voice came from Zhang Hao's side.

"What's wrong, Xiaohao? Are your people still worried? Should I come and talk to them?"

Demulan: Damn it, why are those people calling again? Can't they just let my Cammy and Xiaohao have a couple of days alone? I've already compromised and not let them completely abduct me. Xiaohao is easily swayed, I hope they don't persuade him to go back again.

"Ah?! No, Aunt Demurean, oh dear, it really isn't them!"

Before Zhang Hao could finish speaking, Demulan took the phone back and made eye contact with Said on the screen.

Zhang Hao: What's going on here? I'm speechless. Aunt Desmoulins' hands are incredibly fast; she always manages to snatch something before I even have a chance to dodge. (；'д｀)ゞ

"De! Mu! Lan!"

Said roared in anger, "That despicable Demulan actually kidnapped Xiao Hao? He clearly doesn't respect me, the leader of Dam Zero, at all!"

Sofia: He's the safety director of the space base, why should he care about you? You've lost sight of yourself, haven't you?

"Hey, isn't this Said? How come you're connected to the GTI people? Does Yousef know about your relationship with Xiao Hao and the others?"

As soon as Demulan posed these questions, Said, who was originally planning to explode, immediately fell silent. This... why are all of Demulan's questions so tricky? How could he possibly let Yousef know about this?

But considering that Xiao Hao was the most important person right now, Said ignored Demulan's questions and pressed on with his own:

"Answer my questions first. Did you kidnap Xiao Hao? Why is Xiao Hao with you now? Where are the other members of GTI? Did you attack GTI? Demulan, do you know what you've done?"

Hearing the commotion from Said's side, Wuming and Abel were also drawn over, and Sophia, needless to say, came directly to Said's side and saw Demulan on the screen.

"Hmph, do I need to report to you, Said, what I did? Why are you so worried about the GTI people? Do you two have some kind of secret deal going on? That's interesting. Hey, Hao, wait a minute..."

Demulan wanted to tease the fool Said a little longer, but unexpectedly, Zhang Hao, with the help of Kami, managed to retrieve the phone.

"Kami, you..."

Demulan looked at his precious daughter Camille with disbelief. How come their relationship wasn't even official yet, and his daughter was already siding with the outsider?

Demoulin: Ah! My daughter has grown up and is no longer home! I'm so heartbroken!

"I'm sorry, Mom. I was just worried because Xiaohao looked so anxious..."

Kami didn't dare look at Demulan's betrayed eyes and could only dart away as he spoke.

Hearing what Cammy said, Demulan could only console himself, thinking that it was just his daughter trying to deepen her relationship with Xiaohao, and that he was just helping her out.

Daisy, sitting in the back of the car, couldn't help but chuckle, looking at the sullen Desmoulins beside her and saying:

"Hahaha, Demulan, you've finally met your match! Now you know how I felt when you betrayed me back then, right? Don't be so down. I can only say that Kami completely inherited it, you know? Two love-obsessed people, one big and one small, hopeless, hopeless."

Demulan rolled his eyes at Daisy. How could this involve him? He was already so old, and she still wanted to drag out things from his youth and whip him.

Meanwhile, Zhang Hao quickly explained to Said that Mai Xiaowen and the others would analyze the current situation after learning about it, and they would also consult with Uncle Shenlan before taking any action.

But it's a different story with Uncle Saeed. There's no one at the dam who can stop him. You mean Sister Sofia? When it comes to big things, Uncle Saeed is the only person in charge at the entire dam.

Moreover, Zhang Hao was very clear that once someone related to Uncle Said was involved, Uncle Said's already limited intelligence would be completely wiped out. If nothing unexpected happened, Uncle Said would probably be preparing to gather the soldiers at the dam to come to the space base to rescue him.

This is no joke. Uncle Said is really capable of doing something like this. That's why Zhang Hao asked Kami to help him get his phone back from Demulan. He needed to explain things to Said.

"Are you going to stay at the space base for a couple of days? With Demulan? Do Roy Weylon and the others know? Are they really that comfortable with you going to the space base? Have they lost their minds?"

Roy: You're the one who's brainless. Neither you nor Wang Yuhao are brainless. And you call me brainless? I'm the first one to think about Xiaohao's current situation. Besides, if Xiaohao can really win over Demulan's daughter, wouldn't that be the same as infiltrating the Hafk Group? I can only say that your level is too low.

"Uncle Said, don't worry, everyone knows. And Aunt Demulan is just thanking us for helping her deal with Reis last time. I'll stay there for two days and then go back to the Special Operations Department. By the way, Uncle Said, what did you want to see me about?"

Seeing Zhang Hao's sincere expression, Said put down the PKM that was already loaded with bullets. Still somewhat worried, he asked a few more questions before starting to tell Zhang Hao what he wanted to say.

After hearing what Saeed said about Hamk's upcoming situation, Demulan, sitting in the front passenger seat, couldn't help but speak up:

"You know how to interrogate people? Want me to teach you a few tricks? Don't mess with them too much."

Chapter 539 Said: Xiao Hao, have you been kidnapped? (2)

"Demulan, are you questioning my skills? Do you know how accomplished I am in this area? My knife skills are truly superb. You know, there are quite a few soldiers in Asara who were trained by me!"

When Said saw that Demulan actually doubted his interrogation skills, he couldn't help but retort, "What does Demulan know? Under my Chixiao, no one can withstand her."

"Oh, he's just a brute who only knows how to use a knife. I don't think you just stabbed someone into submission with a knife, or maybe you're even more skilled at slicing people."

Said: Oh no, how did Demulan know about my secret weapon? Could it be that she can also kill people? This requires extremely precise swordsmanship.

"Ahem, well... even if that's the case, so what? At least we got the question asked, why worry about everything else? Xiao Hao, do you want to come over? What's with this space base? That Demulan isn't a good person. If you want to come back, just tell me, and I'll come over and..."

Before Saeed could finish speaking, he realized the video call had been cut off, and he immediately roared in his office:

"Damn human trafficker Demulan! Give me back my strategist!"

In the car, Demulan casually withdrew the hand that had just hung up the phone, and silently leaned back in the seat in front of him, saying:

"Xiao Hao, don't listen to this Said's nonsense. He's not very educated, but in my opinion, he's a good person. He's just a bit old-fashioned, like an old man. He's unwilling to accept our Hafk's help, don't you think so, Xiao Hao?"

Zhang Hao: I'm not going to say anything. I just want to be a quiet bystander.

If Said were here right now, he'd probably be yelling and challenging Demulan to a duel. It's true he can't beat Reis, but at close range, Said might not be unable to put up a fight against Demulan.

Said: I probably can't beat that monster. After all, I feel like he's not even a normal person anymore. After all, no good person would react like nothing when hit by a bullet. But you, Demulan, are different. I'm afraid you're afraid of being sniped by me from a distance. If I get close to you, you'll know how strong I, Said, am.

After traveling for some time, Zhang Hao and his group arrived at the staff dormitory of the aerospace base.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Hao saw this familiar scene and, without any apparent reason, asked Demulan:

"Aunt Demurean, are there any satellite dishes in this dormitory area?"

Demoulin: ? ? ? ? ?

Looking at the bewildered Demulan in front of him, Zhang Hao smiled awkwardly. He hadn't shaken off his professional habit of asking the question out of turn.

"Well... we probably don't have any in the staff dormitories, but if you want one, Xiao Hao, I can have someone bring one over for you."

Seeing this, Zhang Hao waved his hands repeatedly, saying that he didn't need that thing now, since he didn't need to upgrade the Special Operations Department or anything. But if he had the Heart of Africa... well, that would be a different story.

Zhang Hao: No matter where you are, the allure of the Heart of Africa is unparalleled!

"Come with me, this dormitory up ahead is ours. Xiao Hao, you and... my Kami will be there."
