“Cen Zhen!” The man hanging on the bed looked like he was about to die, yet still waved to them with great difficulty. Cen Zhen didn’t know what to say about this scene, so he pretended not to see it.
Yao Jin saw the masked killer next to Cen Zhen from a distance. In a flash, he analyzed the other party’s identity by smelling Lian Yu’s pheromones and seeing this masked killer’s suspicious movements. Who else could it be but Lian Yu? He hurriedly lowered his head and said to ShouHe: “The man next to Cen Zhen is Lian Yu.”
“Huh?” ShouHe didn’t know how many times he had been surprised today. These Sentinels and Guides always opened his eyes.
Of course, he didn’t realize that his behavior of suddenly going on a run holding a bed without a word was more eye-opening than anything. Especially when there was a whole living man lying on the bed.
The masked people were all semi-mechanized modified humans. Their thinking was like rows of step-by-step code, which gave all their behaviors low error rates and high efficiency, but also brought a mechanized thinking process.
For example, now. After the masked killer chasing ShouHe found another “companion” in front, he quickly calculated the distance and combat effectiveness between himself, the prey, and his companion and concluded that his companion was capable and it was more convenient for him to deal with these defectors. Then he immediately changed his target, acted on the labor-saving and efficient work principle, and headed to clean up other war slaves.
ShouHe couldn’t get into the alley with the bedboard, so the four of them successfully met outside the alley. Yao Jin was still very surprised that the masked killer behind him suddenly stopped chasing. ShouHe straightforwardly told him not to worry about it, “What’s the situation now? How did this little boy get in?”
“……” Lian Yu felt uncomfortable from top to bottom when he saw ShouHe’s face. He can’t shake away the constant feeling that this interstellar police would suddenly take out a pair of handcuffs in the next second and send him to the Universe Federal Prison. He rarely remained silent and subconsciously shrank behind Cen Zhen like a mouse seeing a cat.
ShouHe also felt strangely familiar seeing Lian Yu. To be more precise, he was very familiar with Lian Yu’s movements and expressions. When those criminals saw him and felt guilty, they all acted timidly like this.
“Is it inconvenient to say?…” ShouHe narrowed his eyes, supported the bed with one hand, pressed Yao Jin’s shoulder with the other, and quickly scanned the appearance memory database of fugitive criminals in his jurisdiction.
No match.
Cen Zhen had never been hunted, had never been on a wanted warrant, and had never been to the police station. Naturally, he could not empathize with Lian Yu, who was wanted by the whole universe and was imprisoned twice. Although he didn’t know what Lian Yu was afraid of, he subconsciously moved sideways to block ShouHe’s sight and included the Sentinel in his protection range.
Cen Zhen slightly tilted his head and met Lian Yu’s eyes, “…It’s fine, he has a signal jammer on him.”
“Let’s start from the beginning.” Lian Yu exhaled slowly. It’s not that he is afraid of ShouHe. It’s just that if someone was preparing to break through the atmosphere in a spaceship and a peerless tough guy suddenly appeared on the other side, driving a fighter plane, descending from the sky, and removed the spaceship engine in front of him with his literal bare hands…then please allow the witness to have a little bit of stress response when facing the tough guy again.
“I implanted a tracking program into the terminal of the highest executive leader of the masked killer. I copied all the data inside, but all the data were confidential information each with five layers of protection, which took time to decipher. Since I didn’t want to alert the enemy, I didn’t rashly use the location positioning function of the tracking program…”
Yao Jin felt that a turning point was coming next, and Lian Yu did not disappoint: “But I got my monthly heat today, and Cen Zhen is not around, so everything I do is out of control… Not only did I turn on the positioning, but I also forcibly killed a masked killer and took his identity.”
“But apart from these, I did everything else very carefully… So now conservatively estimating, there is a 50% probability that the high-level officials of the Slave Market have discovered the clues.” Lian Yu looked at Yao Jin and ShouHe, “But believe me, I can absolutely guarantee that we will not die.”
This sentence was said arrogantly and boldly, with extreme confidence, but it sounded compelling and promising when it came out of Lian Yu’s mouth.
Not everyone can be a sex slave under the Star Pirates the previous second but sneak into the Slave Arena the next second dressed as a masked killer and do whatever they want.
“……” ShouHe pinched the bedboard, leaving five finger marks on it. After a while, he looked up at Cen Zhen, thinking of how he had just exposed his eye color, plus Lian Yu’s words just now, he said solemnly: “From what you said, you are very good at network information security technology.”
No, because of him, network information is not secured. Cen Zhen’s mental link fluctuated slightly, Lian Yu immediately sensed it and fluctuated back unsatisfactorily.
“In fact, the entire Slave Market is not a problem for me.”
More arrogant words came out of ShouHe’s mouth, and he only needed a simple sentence to prove it: “I am from Zhongyang Star.”
“……” Cen Zhen and Lian Yu had no reaction. After all, they had already reacted respectively in private previously.
On the other hand, Yao Jin, who is the male protagonist but does not enjoy any male protagonist privilege, suddenly hears that the “prostitute” who had carried him all the way here was actually a Zhongyang. He was not prepared at all, these came without any prelude. When he thought about how he almost raped a Zhongyang before if it were not for the other party’s feature skill, Yao Jin was so scared that his whole body was shaking; so shaky the soil in his mental space was about to fly away.
“Oh My God…you,” Yao Jin showed the surprise that a normal Sentinel should have, “How could it be…no way…”
His current state is like suddenly finding out that the pit friend who they use to go to the bathroom together is Superman, and he even compared size with Superman before and blew a rogue whistle before leaving; or another example, the classmate in the same line as him in the cafeteria getting food is Thor, and he accidentally spilled soup all over him when he was carrying soup.
In short, it is not something that a human can experience.
“Since the Slave Market is not a problem for you, why–” Cen Zhen pointed to where ShouHe was currently and then pointed to the weathered broken bedboard. The meaning behind his words was: Why don’t you act like in the novel, always take action instead of using words, casually destroying a planet? Why don’t you just wipe out the Slave Market and let everyone go home quickly? Instead, you are really following the “game” rules of the Slave Market and hiding from the masked killer with a broken bed?
It can’t be that you are in a playful mood and are going to win the Slave Arena championship to prove your existence first, and then do your business? – Cen Zhen believes that even if he consider the whole vast universe, only Lian Yu would do such things.
Since learning about ShouHe’s true identity, Cen Zhen has always believed that he is hiding to wait for his companions, or there is some unknown information that needs to be found out, or like them, a companion is trapped in the Slave Market and he needs to find their location first.
But at this moment, ShouHe gave him an unexpected answer—— “We have been eyeing the Slave Market trade for a long time.” ShouHe didn’t know how much Cen Zhen knew about him, so he used “we” to hide the name of “Interstellar Police”. After saying the first sentence, he looked up to observe the reactions of Cen Zhen, Lian Yu, and Yao Jin. The first two still didn’t react, but the latter looked at him like an idol, his eyes shining with excitement.
“…But the location of the Slave Market is too secretive, and we spent a lot of manpower and material resources but still couldn’t find the specific venue. The news that the Falling Cloud Star Pirates have trade with the Slave Market was bought from an informant for a large sum of money not long ago.”
Cen Zhen subconsciously looked at Lian Yu, who blinked and made a subtle gesture of two and eight, indicating that he got eight of the Interstellar Police bonus, and the so-called informant took two.
“……”He seemed to understand the feelings of the male protagonists in the original novel, ‘Why are you, the Dark Sentinel 1802, a part of everything everywhere?’
ShouHe continued, “After learning the news, we immediately made a plan and decided to take an undercover action. I pretended to be captured by the Falling Cloud Star Pirates and became a slave to be sold, to sneak into the Slave Market. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the mission, my identity would not arouse suspicion… I was implanted with a slave chip by them.”
“The only thing that hinders me now is this chip.” ShouHe said seriously to those present, “I believe you have the same problem, so the most critical step now is how to cut off the control of the chip by the Slave Market.”
Yao Jin nodded, and he subconsciously touched the scar on his arm. The Sentinel’s strong recovery physique had made it very light, but it could still be seen that it had been cut open by a knife not long ago and a chip was forced into it.
Of course, the physical pain is far less than the psychological horror.
Lian Yu: “……”
Lian Yu: “No, we don’t have this problem.”
He said to Yao Jin: “Give me a sharper scalpel and tweezers now, I can make it no longer a problem for you.”
Yao Jin: “……”
Yao Jin: “???”
“But…” Lian Yu turned to ShouHe and said: “You are different from him. You are implanted with an injection. This, I–”
Halfway through his words, Lian Yu pretended to be deep and leaned against the wall with his arms folded, waiting for ShouHe to come to him anxiously. Cen Zhen saw that his eyes behind the mask were full of pride as if he had finally avenged his previous life in this life and had no regrets.
But ShouHe is worthy of being ShouHe, a righteous people’s policeman, and his awareness is higher than that of the Dark Sentinel who acts like, ‘If I am unhappy, I will make all of you unhappy.’ He said almost without hesitation: “Since you have a way, then quickly remove the chip for him first!”
“Then, what about you?” Yao Jin said anxiously.
The two lawful and just people didn’t realize Lian Yu’s little thoughts. Cen Zhen on the other hand was suddenly offline, not sure since when. No matter how Lian Yu hinted, he remained silent. However, Lian Yu couldn’t just say, ‘Come and beg me!’ The scene was very awkward for a while.
ShouHe asked seriously, “Is a scalpel and tweezers all you need? What else do you need? There is a hospital on the Slave Arena map. Maybe medical tools are specially placed for authenticity. I walk faster. You all can sit on the bed and I can take us there.”
Cen Zhen imagined the scene: a man carrying a bed on his shoulder walking briskly, and there were three men with red, yellow, and black hair sitting on it. If he dyed his hair green, he would be a walking traffic light…
Can’t think more about it.
“The hospital has become a restricted area.” Yao Jin said, “We can’t get in.”
Lian Yu tapped his arm with his index finger irritably. The four words ‘Quick! Come! Beg! Me!’ were already in his eyes, but he refused to speak.
“Then we can only think of other ways.” ShouHe lowered his eyes and pondered.
Of course, there are other ways, Lian Yu shouted silently in his heart, that is to come and ask me for help.
“No need for a hospital.” Cen Zhen raised his eyes and looked at the way they came, “I know where there is a scalpel.”
Lian Yu: “……”
Lian Yu crushed the word ‘Beg’ beneath the sole of his shoe, he smiled and said, “That’s great!”, and then the lion at Cen Zhen’s feet bit his calf fiercely.

Ten minutes later, the four caught the werewolf Coco who had fled to the Commercial District. The huge medical box was covered with blood and one side was completely dented. When they arrived, Coco was squatting in a container marked as Toilet, and next to his tail was a corpse that had just died – a scaled man of the same clan as Man Yun, whose skin could become hard armor when they needed it, indestructible. The one on the ground was bitten through the shell into the throat by the Werewolf’s sharp teeth.
The Werewolf was also badly injured, with a big gash on his head, and blood stuck to the fur all around his face, clucky… like a pitiful drowned dog.
“You——” The Werewolf was shocked. In such a large Slave Arena, he was hiding so secretly. How could these ghost-like people still be able to haunt him accurately? And the group of guys has grown larger! !
When he saw the masked killer walking at the back, the Werewolf’s blood flow reversed, and he subconsciously grabbed something and smashed it toward Lian Yu. “Roar!!!”
Lian Yu nimbly dodged to the side and saw from the corner of his eye that the bottle of disinfectant had smashed through the wall. What he thought in his heart was that: Did I for real get jealous of such a big fool just now? Am I crazy? The heat is too scary.
“Don’t be afraid, he’s one of us.” ShouHe comforted him. The Werewolf was panting, and his eyes kept blacking out due to lack of blood. “How the fxxx can he be… one of us?”

There is a saying when one’s partner cheats, one’s hair is dyed green. Green signifies cheating, and people often use it to hint and warn others.
