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

——Your calculation is quite accurate.

The white-haired loli was trying so hard to hold back her laughter that her stomach ached. It was obvious that she had known this would happen, so she kept it a secret and didn't tell the whole story.

"Director Yu, what are you doing?!"

Xia Wuyou was a little unhappy, mainly because your fall was too fake! Anyone who is not blind can know what you are up to... Anyway, she is very disgusted with this kind of behavior, bad woman, please don't bother our Xu Shi, okay? !

"Hey, the ground is slippery..."

Even though his trick was exposed, Yu Xingchuan was not embarrassed. He shamelessly got up and made up a lame excuse to get away with it.

If there is an opportunity, you have to seize it... She actually never thought that she would be able to go to sea as a member of the fleet.

But now that I'm here, I have to make the best of it. Even though my tricks may be lame, as long as I work hard, maybe one day I can climb up to Mr. Xu's... No, it's better to gain Xu Shi's favor and then reach the top overnight.

Xiaoyu, keep going!

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble."

Xu Shi helplessly held his forehead, "What's the matter?"

"We also sensed energy fluctuations here, so we came to check out the situation."

Xia Wuyou cleared his throat and said seriously, "So I should ask you, what are you doing?"

The so-called energy fluctuation is the aura that Xu Shi mentioned before. The higher the level of the "Upgraders", the more sensitive they are to the fluctuations caused by the "Rust Mist". Especially since Xia Ke'an is still SS-level, it is normal for them to feel it.

"Ah, this..."

Xu Shi thought about it and told them what had just happened, avoiding the main point.

Hearing that nothing had happened, Xia Xiaomao finally felt relieved. She didn't care too much about anything else, but she was also relieved to hear that her aunt was in good health.

This is a good thing for her. Although the relationship between the aunt and niece has become a little sour, they are still the most important relatives after all.

"Well, there's more..."

Yu Xingchuan didn't care at all and interrupted to talk about something else, "Mr. Xu, we have sailed about 500 nautical miles now. Are we going to start building the first signal relay station?"

"...Well, go and make the arrangements."

Facing the serious matters, Xu Shi also took it more seriously. "Safety is the most important thing. Ask Cheng Cheng to come along. If you don't understand something, just ask her."

Xia Wuyou and Yu Xingchuan are both capable and powerful, so Xu Shi naturally trusts them to serve as the first and second mates. They are also in charge of daily overall management, so they came together just now.

They did a really good job. Not only this command ship, but the entire fleet was managed in an orderly manner.

As for the other selected combat personnel, there was no problem either. To be on the safe side, Xu Shi mostly selected combat teams with a higher degree of transformation.

The training is relatively simple. Just plug in the brain-computer and input the relevant information. There is no need to worry that they will get seasick like Xie Qingyan. Otherwise, will we have to connect the ships together? Although we have the appearance of a prime minister, we cannot make the same mistakes as the prime minister.

"By the way, check the course again and make sure there are no omissions in any aspect at any time."

"Yes!"

Yu Xingchuan gave a not-so-standard military salute, "I checked before coming here. We are heading due west, at a speed of thirty knots, and there are no problems with the power reactors of the ships."

The fleet uses the standard battleship speed, and is powered by seawater. To be more precise, it relies on the real-time extraction of "rust mist" from the seawater as support - the work of engineering genius Jiang Chengcheng, which is inexhaustible.

Xu Shi nodded. He had not dealt much with this former adjutant, now the director of the Inspection Bureau, but it was undeniable that the other party's ability was beyond doubt. His performance in dealing with the riots previously made him look at him with awe.

It's just this kind of personality... Anyway, Xu Shi knew that when Yu Xingchuan was an adjutant, he was a complete jerk. He even bought a big house in District 16 with the help of gray income, which is something that many executives of the consortium cannot do.

From the small details, you can tell what kind of person she is. No wonder Tang Shuang is so troubled by her... Including why did she go to such great lengths to climb into his bed? Was it simply because he was handsome? No one would believe it if you told them.

You are so greedy. I have already appointed you as the director of the Inspection Bureau. What else do you want?

At first glance, I can tell that she is a greedy, evil woman who says one thing in public and another behind the scenes.

But he didn't care. Bad women were much more interesting than good sisters. The journey was long, and it would be fun to be trained by multiple people.

"...Ah, yes, there is one more thing."

Yu Xingchuan didn't know what he was thinking, but continued to report seriously and respectfully, "According to your instructions, we used sonar detection and captured some marine species. Do you want to let Xia, ah, Miss Xia..."

"...Okay, take me to see it."

The Miss Xia that she was talking about was naturally Xia Ke'an. She was commissioned by "Feather Pen" to record various things she saw and heard. After hearing this, she knew that she couldn't just sit around doing nothing all the time. Little Ke'an has a serious job!

"Would you like to come along sometime?"

The old lady stretched and asked with interest.

"No, I'm going back to the cabin to rest."

Xu Shi patted her on the shoulder and said, "Go and have fun. Come to my room and tell me about it in the evening."

"I'm not going to your room."

The white-haired loli curled her lips and called Xia Wuyou and Yu Xingchuan to leave.

"Director Yu."

Before leaving, Xu Shi added, "The sea is different from the city, remember to pay attention to safety, your health is the first priority."

This is true. The City of Night Sin has a very good defense system that protects everyone from being eroded by the "Rust Mist". The version carried on the ship is weaker, and the sea water is constantly steaming below. It stands to reason that staying on the deck for so long is actually quite dangerous.

“…Okay, got it.”

The adjutant was stunned. Is Mr. Xu concerned about me? The key is that he specifically mentioned me. This...

Meeting the other person's peach blossom eyes, the gentle tone of voice did not sound fake at all.

This made Yu Xingchuan a little proud.

Just say it, your own approach is still useful, right?

The two people standing by saw this but didn't react at all.

Xia Xiaomao didn't even feel jealous anymore, because she knew Xu Shi very well, and it was usually not a good thing when this person showed kindness to you...

I just don't know what he plans to do with Xingchuan...

But she would not remind the other party, because she had gone through the same thing herself.

People who have been caught in the rain always hope that others will also get soaked.

……

Xu Shi did not return to his cabin, but went to the one at the stern.

As soon as the door was opened, the layout inside was luxurious, comfortable and spacious, and there was no difference compared to the ones on land—most of the rooms on the command ship were equipped with this configuration. There is no need to go out of your way to suffer as much as you can.

But even so, the people living in this room were still not very satisfied. The furnishings in the room were deliberately messed up, and the meals that were delivered were not touched at all.

"Not to your liking?"

Xu Shi blinked when he saw this, and then gently advised, "Eat a little, Miss Shen Qin, what if you are starving?"

That’s right, the person staying here is naturally Shen Qin, who was brought here by Xu Shi to be a bodyguard.

"...You don't need to be so kind."

Shen Qin, who was sitting by the window in a daze, slowly turned around and looked at him with cold eyes, "You brought me here...how are you going to torture me again?"

She actually didn't quite understand the situation - the fact was that ever since she was locked back in the incubator that day, she was once again oblivious to what was happening in the outside world, and when she woke up again she was here, as if in a dream.

However, she was very clear that she was now under Xu Shi's control. As long as she was clear about this premise, she would not be able to be happy.

"What are you saying? Is asking you to eat torture?"

Xu Shi sighed. How could the little girl not appreciate a good heart? "Or do you want to starve yourself to death by fasting?"

"..."

Shen Qin remained silent, feeling disgusted as she watched the other person pretend to care about her.

She really wanted to find something to fight with and die together with the other party, but when she thought about what happened before, she gave up the idea.

This is the most contradictory part. She cannot kill him, but she also does not want to accept it submissively. This makes her in a state of entanglement and pain all the time.

Especially the feeling of powerlessness, which almost drove her crazy. This was the enemy who killed her brother in front of her!

However, when she raised her head and glared at Xu Shi, she suddenly felt her eyes blurred.

In a trance, it seemed as if something overlapped with each other, causing her to blurt out uncontrollably.

"Brother...brother?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 208 I would rather die than eat a single bite of your food!

giegie?

Who is this called?

Xu Shi was also confused. Oh my god, he never thought it would turn out like this.

And what happened to Shen Qin? Was she completely crazy?

Looking at her confused expression, someone might think someone had drugged her.

Anyway, Xu Shi definitely had never done such a thing - all of us were just following the KFC spiritual evil method, so what kind of low-level method is drugging? It was a bit cheap.

After a brief moment of confusion, he roughly sorted out his thoughts.

Could it be that because I have now integrated Shen He's supernatural power sample, some subtle changes have occurred in my aura, which led to this?

It seems that there is only this one possibility... The aura of the "Upgrader" is unique, so it is inevitable that I will have some of Shen He's aura, which can be regarded as a small gift for the implantation of supernatural powers.

This was originally a harmless matter, because this aura was not obvious and would not overshadow the others. Not to mention Xia Wuyou and the others, Xu Shi himself didn't feel anything at all.

Besides, this thing is useless. We have our own Observation Haki.

But it was different for Shen Qin. She was also an A+ level "promoter" and her perception of aura fluctuations was not weak. In addition, the little sister was concerned about her brother, so she was more sensitive to everything about Shen He than others.

Coupled with her current mental state...it's understandable that something like this would happen.

Oh, Yoshi~

After sorting out the causes and consequences, Xu Shi's face showed a hint of amusement.

"Xiaoqin, it's me."
