Chapter 720: Chapter 718: Reminiscing_1 Chapter 720: Chapter 718: Reminiscing_1 Su Gao’s tone was so natural that at a single glance, one could feel the yearning in her voice for a life of laying down arms and returning to the fields.
She is still just a little girl full of fantasies about the world!
This scene made Suzune’s blood boil with rage as she glared at Fu Qian, her eyes nearly bursting with blood.
Even Lego, the old hand, could not help but let out a chuckle at that moment.
“That guy isn’t much of a celebrity, and back then it was different, Transcendents weren’t worshipped in such a frenzied manner.”
“Even a little girl like you might have been scared upon meeting him.”
As he spoke, he sighed.
“His name was Delin–fair, sharp, powerful, surpassing me by far in all aspects and a considerably excellent team leader. We worked together for nearly five years.”
Though having had too many experiences, Lego had long lost the heart that once brimmed with indiscriminate compassion, yet he didn’t mind giving a casual reminder of the harshness of the world.
“Unfortunately, in the last mission, we still underestimated the evil of the human heart…”
“Transcendent powers in the hands of certain individuals created tragedies beyond imagination.”
“I can understand what you’re saying, but it’s still hard to picture what actually happened.”
Su Gao exhaled softly.
“Believe me, it’s not a bad thing, you should know that even I don’t like to dream about those scenes.”
Lego shook his head, his expression full of regret and reluctance to look back at the past.
“If you’re really that interested, I might take you to visit him someday.”
“Ever since he washed his hands of his old life, his temperament has become much gentler, and he probably would be happy to communicate with a young person like you, especially since he has a very pretty daughter.”
Sometimes the rope that rescues destiny floats around us unnoticed.
Lego thought to himself as he spoke.
He had heard more than enough from Suzune about the cold-blooded villain known as Darcy.
Well-versed in human nature, he knew there was no reasoning with such a character.
Their philosophy had become thoroughly alien and inhuman, they would not even fear the threat of death, driven only to satisfy their inner mania.
So, if this little girl from Violetta fell completely under his spell, the likelihood of a good outcome was slim.
He didn’t have the energy to enlighten everyone, but if she took his suggestion, her chances of escaping the hunt might vastly increase, and Delin might even be willing to offer her some protection.
Of course, all of this was premised on the fact that she could break free from the villain’s mind control–forget I said anything!
The next action by Su Gao made Lego swear involuntarily.
“Mr. Darcy, what do you think?”
No sooner had the words left her mouth, than Su Gao had already turned her head, seriously seeking Fu Qian’s opinion.
How could this guy possibly agree with the idea–
“Hmm, I think it’s a good idea.”
Fu Qian cut off Lego’s thoughts and gave an incredibly unbelievable answer.
“Just now, Captain Lego mentioned your friend, Delin–does he have a lovely daughter?”
Damn!
In that instant, Lego fully understood why Suzune had resorted to killing him then.
His first reaction was a new prey? Scumbag doesn’t even begin to describe this guy!
…
All in all, Su Gao seemed to remember very little about the past.
Having drawn enough hatred, Fu Qian didn’t even bother to imagine what Lego must be feeling and was instead focusing on another point.
This was not surprising, really; when they first met in the Old Town, it was evident that Su Gao didn’t recognize him.
Beyond her physical form, her memories had been shattered by the effects of the Fool’s Tree.
From this perspective, it was likely she also didn’t remember Lego and Delin.
Even when she was hiding in the tree and observing secretively, it’s possible that no one mentioned Lego’s name.
But her reaction just now was indeed somewhat unusual, she must have learned about it through some other channels.
For example, the data repository of the Night Watchman?
After everything had settled down, did she rely on internal data to, in turn, understand what happened to her?
This was a reasonable explanation.
At the same time, Su Gao seemed to be quite insensitive to her own name, which led Fu Qian to think that maybe some information was omitted from the data she accessed.
If that was really the case, then it was quite an interesting piece of information.
Had the Night Watchman classified parts of that past event as an even higher secret?
As for the reason, it was still not good to speculate at the moment, but Fu Qian didn’t believe it necessarily had to do with his own identity as the mission person; maybe it was because of that strange mine tunnel.
The Golden Cup Sect he had later encountered was clearly an ancient and mysterious organization.
In just an instant, Fu Qian had already thought of much.
…
“You better not have any strange ideas.”
At this moment, Captain Lego’s tone was truly murderous.
“Just kidding, I’ve lived here for a long time too.”
In response to the threat, Fu Qian tapped his forehead with his finger, explaining with a smile.
What he wanted to express was that he knew the limits; otherwise, could he have survived here for so long?
At this time, Captain Lego finally realized that the conversation had veered off topic and hummed softly.
“Really? Your recent actions don’t seem to show that at all.”
Here it comes!
Hearing Lego’s words, Fu Qian secretly chuckled inside.
“Are you referring to Carlos, Captain Lego?”
The next moment, he was also quite direct and straightforward, not beating around the bush.
“His behavior has nothing to do with me; in my view, he seems a bit neurotic due to some recent events.”
“Are you talking about the incident at sea? The conflict between Siren and Yasui Corp didn’t just start yesterday, of course; this time their action was indeed big, they actually made their way to Ye Island.”
Lego looked at Fu Qian’s face.
“Are you trying to say that because of that accident, a Fourth Phase Transcendent from Yasui Corp sought you out? Is there a cause and effect relationship between these events?”
“Of course there is. Lord Carlos thinks that I might be a Siren spy, hidden in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to harm Yasui.”
…
This guy really dares to speak!
Shocked as he was, Captain Lego no longer thought that Fu Qian was talking nonsense, because nobody would make up such a lie.
The purpose of staying behind was to confirm the reason Carlos came here–if that’s really the case–why would Carlos have such a judgment?
Now that he thought about it, the timing of this guy’s appearance was indeed a bit too convenient…
Although he was just an ordinary person, he had quite some methods…
His disappearance last time was very peculiar, according to Suzune Hayakawa’s statement, she was affected mentally, made a mistake, and killed someone from Yasui, but the corpse’s condition was actually a bit odd…
And judging from Carlos’s current attitude, it was hard to imagine that they would offer such protection–the man who died wasn’t here to safeguard Darcy, but to deal with him!
And someone took action against him, then framed it on Suzune Hayakawa!

At a certain moment, Captain Lego had an epiphany.
“So, do you have any connection with the Siren Group or not?”
The next moment he asked casually.
“Yes!”
Unexpectedly, the next moment Fu Qian simply nodded in confirmation.
