It's really like putting on a virtuous facade.
Spah's heartfelt words.
After everyone entered the reception area, the governor, swaggering around, gave the lobby manager a series of instructions before turning and leaving.
Spah shifted his gaze, scanning his surroundings, but found the interior of the hotel even more outrageous than the exterior.
The room was bathed in gold; the walls and marble floors were inlaid with gold.
Outside the window, a gust of wind blew in, causing the golden chandelier to rattle and clatter.
I never imagined... that while the people here live in such poverty, the environment is so luxurious.
Spah bit his lip, turned to look at the robin, and found that the girl, like him, had a furrowed brow.
"War is war."
The robin lowered her head, gripping her precious microphone tightly, a shadow of gloom flashing deep in her eyes.
The girl looked up at Spa, tears glistening in her eyes:
"I learned before I came: this planet had just resisted the antimatter legion, but then a civil war broke out, and peace was only restored in the last two years."
"It's already quite good that we can rebuild part of it."
"Really?"
Spah didn't say anything more. Instead, he took a drag of his cigarette, leaned against the white jade pillar, and squinted.
Although he is now wandering the universe, he was once a senior executive of the company and understands the laws of economic recovery better than anyone else.
Ah!
Two years?
In that time, if it were Elena, now known as Ms. Toppa... it would be enough to turn an impoverished planet into a money pit.
The leaders here have no intention of making life easier for ordinary people!
He wanted to tell the robin these things.
However, Spall glanced at the girl's face and saw a starlight shimmering in her eyes:
"We must! We must give this world hope... Even if half of our equipment was lost in the previous attack, there must be a way!"
The robin patted its cheeks, regained its smile, and took small steps toward its support team.
It is considered that the mountain cold equipment is similar to the four.
It's not good to spoil other people's fun.
Spall shook his head, took the cigarette butt out of his mouth, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it repeatedly until it turned into black powder.
He turned away from the robin's flock, walked to a quiet corner, and bent down.
"Since... Tong Xie is fulfilling his destiny, then I should also do some of the things that a patrol should do."
Spall muttered to himself, pulled out a bag of potato chips, and slurped them down his throat with a clatter.
Then, he closed his eyes and activated [Melancholy Blues].
Chapter 144 Catching the Fool's Little Tail
Spah opened his eyes, and time reversed.
People came and went around him, like a revolving lantern, flashing past his eyes.
Spah stared intently at the passing figure, his eyes unblinking.
He pondered to himself:
Previously... we did not notify the governor, but he had already noticed that my [Red Bird] spaceship had arrived.
The Red Bird was a groundbreaking model for the company.
This means that as long as an outsider arrives in Nalando, the governor will have a way of noticing it, and the Fool is no exception!
Moreover... the emergence of a high-level Destiny Walker from a remote planet is certainly unusual!
Spare chewed on his snacks and slowed down the rewind slightly.
He saw the governor sneaking around to a quiet, secluded corner of the reception room.
There was a cabinet there.
Strangely, the area around the cabinet was covered in dust, but its surface only had some fine powder.
The governor extended his fist and tapped the table with his knuckles.
Do! Do! Do!
hiss……
With a hiss of air being released, a hidden door opened to the left of the governor. Behind the door was complete darkness.
The governor shook his head from side to side, looked around, crouched down, picked up the fat in front of his belly, and crawled behind the door.
Something's fishy!
We can't afford not to chase after them.
Spah rolled his eyes and followed them inside, only to find it pitch black and he couldn't see anything.
He circulated his life energy and focused his eyes, and his vision cleared again, revealing a stone-paved tunnel.
The ground was rugged and covered with black footprints.
Spah followed the governor's footprints, and soon saw a black-robed figure appear out of thin air in front of him.
"Your Excellency! More than half the population of the planet are our followers, and miracles can be performed at any time."
The man in black robes lowered his head and knelt down.
The governor did not reply, but instead gripped the beads tightly in his hand, dripping and turning them around repeatedly, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"My lord! Just give the order..."
The man in black robe spoke again.
"No hurry! Wait!"
The governor's voice was cold, and the beads in his palm spun slower and slower.
"How long will it take?"
"I said! Wait!"
The governor's voice grew louder. The fat on his belly jiggled and trembled with each thud.
The man in black robes trembled all over, but dared not utter a word.
Silence fell. Five seconds later, the governor snorted, turned around, and flicked his sleeve.
Spall saw that the other man's fat face was plastered with a sinister grin.
Wow!
The man in black robes transformed into a black butterfly and vanished.
Spah was taken aback when he saw the change in the man in black robes.
Having chased the Crying Fool for so long, how could he not know what the black butterfly represented?
Each time the Fool disappears, a black butterfly appears.
This man in black robes is connected to the Fool!
check!
We must investigate this thoroughly!
Spah clenched his fist, gritted his teeth, and with a smack, bit off the candy he was chewing.
The next second, a chill ran through him. His ears twitched slightly as he heard footsteps that didn't belong to this space coming from not far away.
Someone in the real world is approaching me.
I have to stop replaying.
Spa closed his eyes again, and when he opened them, his body was back in the hotel, leaning against the corner of the wall.
The location is the same as before [Melancholy Blues] was activated.
"Spa! Spa Spa!"
The robin trotted quickly to him.
Spa glanced at the girl, only to find that she had changed out of her fairy-like performance dress at some point.
She put on a black short-sleeved shirt, revealing her fair arms. Interestingly, the girl also wore square-framed glasses, giving her a very refined appearance.
Out in plain clothes... (0) Flag IX Yin Umbrella Pa a... What does this little girl want to do?
Spall rolled his eyes, about to ask a question, when the robin came close, extended its index finger, and pressed it against his lips.
"Phew... I went out to investigate secretly."
The robin winked. Even through her black-rimmed glasses, this superstar still looked stunning.
However, Spahic is aloof and doesn't want to get too close to the big star, so he reached out his arm and pushed the other person away.
"If I'm not mistaken, you want me to be your bodyguard, right?"
Spah said.
He thought to himself:
Perfect timing! I'm also going to take a look around and gather information about this planet anyway, so there's no need to rush to refuse her.
However, despite thinking this, he still put on a cold and aloof face and kept his distance.
After all... robins are quite persistent!
"I guessed right, he really is Spa's brother."
The robin, with its hands behind its back, twirled like a swan in Swan Lake, until it reached Spa's back, pressed its lips to his ear, and whispered:
"Let me tell you, every time I arrive at a planet, I secretly slip away. Do you know why?"
"Because I had nothing better to do."
Spah shrugged, then distanced himself, took out a cigarette, secretly lit it, and the ash smoke rose in wisps.
"You're wrong. Because I want to observe the world properly. Being greeted like a big star would make me miss a lot of real things."
The girl pushed up her glasses.
Spall gave the robin a long look, quite surprised.
He never expected that this big star would actually go down to the grassroots level... Most leaders in the company wouldn't do that.
"However, before you go out... Mr. Spall, you should dress up properly, don't always look like a bartender!"
The robin blinked and poked Spa's blue suit. The touch of the girl's fingertips tickled his skin.
He's not a bartender!
Spare inwardly complained, his face slightly flushed, and slapped the girl's hand away, clearing his throat twice before saying:
"Don't do it! I'll do it myself."
……
Before long, Spa also changed his clothes, wearing a black men's short-sleeved shirt and light blue jeans.
It's worth mentioning that both of their outfits featured a rainbow pony, making them look like matching couple outfits.
"Hehe! Dressed like this, I wonder how many girls will be captivated by you? Yo! Yo! Let's go!"
The robin puffed out its cheeks and stretched out its fists into the air.
Spall shook his head.
Although he knew all along that Robin was quite lively in real life, unlike her frail image on stage.
But even with her outburst, Spah, an introvert, still found it hard to bear.
The two walked out of the hotel.
