Rebel Demon King

Chapter 1001 Monster and Moonlight (4)

Cheng Mo grabbed Athena's arm, dragged her and rushed towards the door of the coffee shop. He looked at the terrain of the coffee shop and was always ready to speed up.However, Cheng Mo did not expect the twists and turns to come so quickly, but it was not the clerk who prevented him from leaving the coffee shop, but Athena.

Before he ran out of the range of the two dining tables, his hand was ruthlessly thrown away by Athena.Cheng Mo turned his head and saw a cold light from Athena's pupils.

"I think your hands are really redundant on your body."

Athena's voice was not loud, but her voice had a strange and stern texture, like metal tens of degrees below zero, so cold that it was hard to touch, but it was crisp and crisp, which was extremely pleasant to the ear.In a quiet coffee shop, such a sound is very eye-catching.When Cheng Mo got up, no one noticed them. Following Athena's cold voice, everyone in the coffee shop looked at them, including the waiters in the coffee shop.

Probably noticing that something was wrong, one of the waiters actually came over to them, apparently wanting to ask what happened.

Cheng Mo noticed that Athena's gaze was lingering on the steak knife on the dining table, as if she was about to cut off his hand first.Cheng Mo was one head and two older. He pulled Athena's wrist, but he was afraid that the two of them would run in different directions. Now that neither of them had a mobile phone, it was just troublesome to find, and he didn't want to take advantage of it.

But Athena would definitely not understand such an explanation, Cheng Mo immediately said softly: "Can you go out first and talk about it first, it will cause big trouble for the police."

Athena probably temporarily gave up the idea of ​​chopping off Cheng Mo's hand with a steak knife, and said to Cheng Mo expressionlessly: "The police? What kind of trouble can the police be!"

If someone else said that, Cheng Mo would definitely think that she was deliberately finding fault. Athena was different. This woman was so strong that she dared to single out the general on the top of the Acropolis, which meant that she would go her own way and never let anyone go. in the eyes.Then Cheng Mo could only be forced to "it's okay", and quickly think about how to solve the current problem.

Cheng Mo glanced at the waiter from the corner of his eye, and the waiter was getting closer. He found that Athena's expression was indifferent, and he thought something was wrong, so he asked vigilantly: "You can't eat the overlord's meal, and you want to eat it?" Have you smashed up the shop?"

Athena looked at Cheng Mo like an idiot, and said confidently: "Who said that the store must be smashed? I told him I can give him money next time?"

Cheng Mo was speechless, raised his hand and scratched his head. From this, it can be seen that Athena's secular life experience is basically zero. He looked up and down Athena's disguised bloated figure, and said angrily: "You think you are now Athens? Na? You are Wendy now, a fat woman with a height of 178 cm and a weight of about 178 cm, who looks like a freeloader, will others believe you?"

Athena looked down at the slightly protruding "swimming ring" around Wei's stomach, frowned and said, "It's definitely not 178 catties, at most 150, it's not very fat, right? Don't fat people be trusted? "

Cheng Mo glanced at the dining table full of empty plates behind him and sneered, "Shall we make a bet that the other party will believe a fat woman who ordered five pieces of moussaka and five pieces of soufflaki? I'm sure he'll think you're a refugee from the ghetto who's come here on purpose to eat the king's meal."

Athena is not an idiot either. After thinking about it carefully, she still agreed with Cheng Mo's statement, "Then I will bet. Ouroboros is here, and I will change it when the time comes!"

Cheng Mo was moved by Athena's naive generosity, but he refuted her without hesitation, "Ouroboros? That's even better, you have another charge of defrauding with a fake watch."

Athena said impatiently: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what are you going to do? It's impossible to escape, at worst, I'll smash the store today, and I'll pay for the restaurant, food, and medical expenses next time." that is."

After talking for a long time, Athena still wanted to use violence to solve the problem, Cheng Mo rolled his eyes and said contemptuously: "Don't act like you are great if you have money, pay for the meal now if you have the ability!"

Athena has no quarrel skills at all, she was speechless when Cheng Mo said it, she didn't look angry, she just looked at the shiny steak knife on the dining table with a straight face, and then looked at Cheng Mo's hand.
The waiter who came over was completely unsure what happened, and smiled at the two people standing in the corridor across the dining table and asked, "You two, do you want to pay the bill?"

Athena naturally ignored the waiter, but Cheng Mo turned around and said, "Sorry, my girlfriend is a little angry because I complained about her food."

Athena sneered, "Who is your girlfriend?"

Cheng Mo didn't explain, but just shrugged helplessly to the waiter, who immediately shook his head and smiled understandingly.

The exchange of expressions between the two of them made Athena baffled. She also turned her head to look at the waiter and said seriously, "I'm not his girlfriend."

The waiter raised his hands slightly, and made a gesture and expression of "it's none of my business", "Just don't quarrel in our store, both of you."

"No, no, my daughter and I." Seeing that Athena finally couldn't hold back and reached for the steak knife, Cheng Mo took back the word "friend" and coughed lightly, "We are not such unqualified people, No fights in your store."

Athena picked up the shining silver steak knife on the dining table sideways with lightning speed, pointed at Cheng Mo and said flatly, "I can only fight."

The sharp tines on the silver knife emit a dazzling halo under the orange light.

Seeing Athena pointing the knife at Cheng Mo, the male student with a mustache was frightened and turned pale. His frightened appearance had the charm of a Bulgarian demon king.The Yaowang waiter subconsciously threw away the menu card in his hand, quickly raised his hand in a "stop" gesture, and said loudly in a panic: "Madam, calm down, you must calm down, there is nothing that can't be done without arguing." solved"

Cheng Mo stared at the curved tip of the steak knife, and smiled calmly at the nervous waiter, "Don't be nervous, she's just angry, I'll be fine after I communicate with her."

The waiter of the Demon King compared the orchid finger of the king, and said in agreement: "Yes, many things are caused by lack of communication that leads to conflicts. It is true that your girlfriend eats a little too much, but it is not a big problem." Waiter Wang raised his arms, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and showed his bulging biceps, "I also eat a lot, but I will exercise and keep fit. As long as I keep in good shape, my boyfriend will not Blame me for eating too much, speaking of fitness, there is a very good fitness club near us, do you want to know about it, ma'am?"

Athena moved her eyes from Cheng Mo to the waiter of the Demon King, her eyes seemed to be looking at a dead person.

The demon king waiter seemed to feel the murderous intent, his expression was a little frozen, he withdrew his orchid fingers, and smiled awkwardly, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to know."

Cheng Mo is not sure whether the demon king is just making jokes or really selling, these are irrelevant, he only knows that Athena's mood is unpredictable, it is really hard to be sure whether she will cut the demon king's waiter's mouth with a steak knife , he wasn't worried about the waiter of the Demon King, he was just afraid of being exposed because of this.

He felt a chill in his heart, and he didn't care about the possibility of losing his hands. Anyway, Athena really wanted to chop her hands, and he might not be able to stop him, so he raised his hand again and grabbed Athena's wrist, and said to the waiter of the demon king: " Please, leave for a moment and let us solve the problem by ourselves." Cheng Mo moved closer to Athena and whispered in her ear, "Don't you want to know why I don't have 'Ouroboros'? Artifact?"

This question successfully diverted Athena's attention, she turned her head to stare at Cheng Mo, and there was a ripple in her blue eyes like Pinghu.

Cheng Mo didn't expect that the ultimate weapon he had prepared would be used as soon as it left the slums. He sighed in his heart, and pulled Athena back to the dining table to sit down again.

The waiter of the Demon King had no idea that he had saved at least one mouth and at most one life. Seeing the two sitting down again, he said "Okay", turned around and walked towards the bar, turning his head from time to time, paying attention Did Cheng Mo and Athena continue to clash.

This time the two did not sit opposite each other, but sat down next to each other. Cheng Mo still held Athena's wrist tightly, and Athena also held the silver steak knife tightly.

"This knife may not be very useful for cutting hands, but cutting fingers faster should not be difficult." Athena said nonchalantly.

"I just touched your sleeve, it's not fair." Cheng Mo planned to try to argue first.

"Why should I be fair to you?" Athena asked back.

Obviously, reasoning with Athena is useless, so Cheng Mo switched angles and said in a complaining tone: "Hey! Athena, I don't know where your dislike for humans comes from, I have reason to think You are the lizard people's racial discrimination against us humans! We promised to be friends, if you are like this, I can't be friends with you."

Cheng Mo's sarcasm-like attitude and sayings are too new for Athena. For so many years, no one dared to touch her like this, let alone threaten her not to be friends with her.All in all, Cheng Mo's words and deeds make her feel interesting.However, this kind of "feeling silent and interesting" emotion has nothing to do with the goodwill between men and women, but the kind of high-ranking god who is curious when he finds a different human sample.

Therefore, tolerance for Cheng Mo does not come from pity and love, but from curiosity about new things.

This kind of curiosity can't be simply attributed to Cheng Mo's words and deeds just now. If someone else did that, Athena would have chopped off the opponent's fingers with the steak knife in her hand.The reason why Cheng Mo is more tolerant is because of Nebuchadnezzar's appreciation, and Cheng Mo's excellent performance in the "Hydra Building" also played a big role.

So Athena didn't break free from Cheng Mo's hand this time and cut off his tender fingers with a steak knife. She just asked a little confused: "Racial discrimination? Do I have it?"

Cheng Mo, who had seen countless people, realized the subtle changes in Athena's mood, and knew that he was safe. He took the initiative to let go of Athena's hand, nodded and said, "It's obvious. Your identity allows you to know each other all the time." You feel that you are a minority, but in fact you ignore that what you experience is a minority of the minority, because you are still the ruler at the top of the pyramid." After a short pause, Cheng Mo added, "A very beautiful ruler."

"Then what happened?"

Cheng Mo knew that in Athena's mind, the lizard people were a minority and could not disclose their identities. Therefore, because of her identity, she would have a biased perception of herself and humans. He guessed that this was because of Athena's withdrawn personality. where the roots lie.This is an extremely sensitive point and also a breakthrough.

After thinking about it for a while, Cheng Mo pretended to be nonchalant and said: "So the human beings you know are very few elite human beings. In the eyes of ordinary people like me, it is a word that originally refers to special treatment. Relativized words, which confuse the differences of these different human beings. There is a gap between every race, every class, and every group. If you don’t explore it deeply, you can’t really understand it. Just like you are a white person , but said to a black man, I understand your race, you are low in IQ, lazy, and like to commit crimes. Not only in blacks, this kind of prejudiced thinking is everywhere, just like many people think they understand Huaxia, and they are not polite , Closed, dirty and messy" Cheng Mo turned his head and said mockingly, "I guess you probably think that human beings are a group of greedy and selfish species. This view is very in line with the self-positioning of elites."

Athena asked noncommittally: "Are you an ordinary person?"

"Yes." Cheng Mo nodded, "At least it used to be, just four years ago, I couldn't even afford hundreds of thousands of heart transplants. As for now, the class transition is very complicated for me. At the time, I didn't like the role I'm playing now, and I honestly hate taking responsibility."

Maybe it was the rare sincerity of Cheng Mo's words, or maybe it was the words "hate taking responsibility" that resonated with Athena, and Athena gently put the brand new steak knife on the side of the table.Then she said lightly: "I will lend you my hand first, and if you want to make me dissatisfied next time, I will cut off my feet."

Cheng Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "We have to get out of here quickly. As for how to use the artifact and skills on the body without wearing Ouroboros, it's too complicated to explain, and I'll tell you when I'm free." you."

"Okay. But I don't like running away," Athena emphasized again, "I never run away."

Cheng Mo thought for a while and said, "Okay! Let's go out in an open and aboveboard manner."

Athena nodded, without wasting any time, and immediately got up from her seat.

Cheng Mo hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab Athena and said, "Wait! I didn't ask you to run orders so blatantly!"

Athena looked down at Cheng Mo's hand that grabbed her wrist for the third time.

Cheng Mo said eloquently: "This is the hand you lent me, not mine. There is nothing wrong with your hand touching yours."

Athena remained half-up and thought for a while before sitting down again, and directly and frankly expressed the embarrassment in her heart, "It seems that there is no reason to refute."

Athena's voice was full of sincere entanglements. Thinking of Athena's lofty appearance and her rather naive words, there was a strange contrast.Thinking of Athena's behavior style and her eating habits, Cheng Mo felt that it was a bit of a crime to perfunctory her so easily.

To some extent, Athena is still a very pure person, but this kind of purity is not the kind of transparent purity that people usually think, but pure blue, or pure black, which is what she was originally. .
Anyway, Cheng Mo found that Athena was not as unattainable, scary, and annoying as he imagined.What's more, as long as it is a normal man, it is impossible to hate her.Cheng Mo suddenly felt that the next journey would be very interesting, he whispered: "You wait for me, I'll go to the bathroom, we can leave soon!"

Athena didn't ask Cheng Mo what he was doing, but just stared at Cheng Mo's white right hand in a daze, maybe she was still thinking about what was wrong with Cheng Mo touching her with her hand.

Cheng Mo stood up and judged the location of the bathroom, then left quickly.

After a while, about seven or eight minutes later, Cheng Mo returned to the dining table and sat down, picked up the cup of coffee that belonged to Patani on the table, took a big sip, and said in a low voice: "Ready to go. "

Athena looked at Cheng Mo's right hand and asked, "When?"

"Wait until there is an explosion in the kitchen."

"explode?"

"Yes! Explosion!" Cheng Mo nodded.

As soon as Cheng Mo's words fell, there was a loud noise from the right rear of the coffee shop, and then a man in a white chef uniform with a dark face rushed out and said something to the waiter at the bar.

Everyone in the cafe was attracted by the explosion and looked in the direction of the kitchen and bar.Cheng Mo grabbed Athena's wrist without hesitation, dragged her and ran towards the door, shouting as he ran, "My God, the gas exploded! Run!"

Suddenly the whole coffee shop became a mess because of Cheng Mo's shout. Seeing someone taking the lead, the others quickly grabbed their belongings and rushed towards the door of the coffee shop in a panic.The waiters didn't know whether it was a gas explosion. Not only did they not stop it, but some of them rushed out of the cafe and stood by the side of the road.

The surroundings were chaotic, and everyone was nervous because of the unknown danger. The tables in the coffee shop were not set loosely. It was inevitable that someone would bump into the tables and chairs, and drop the cups and plates to the ground. The sound was mixed with the "crack bang bang bang" sound of porcelain shattering, as well as the screams of the women, making the scene even more like a disaster scene.

Inexplicably, Cheng Mo and Athena just ran away from the order, and they actually created a thrilling feeling.

This time, Athena did not shake off Cheng Mo's hand, but Cheng Mo ran out of the coffee shop along the flow of people by the wrist with a puzzled face.Cheng Mo didn't know the direction, and led Athena into the crowd of tourists. Before the waiters in the coffee shop realized what was going on, they disappeared into the crowd with Athena.

Cheng Mo and Athena ran to the Ares Park not far from the coffee shop and found no one chasing them, so Cheng Mo let go of Athena's wrist and slowed down.

Athena also seemed to have accepted the setting that Cheng Mo's hand belonged to her, and she didn't show any abnormality.

Ares Park is not a tourist attraction, and it is a little far away from the tourist attraction Acropolis Mountain. At eight or nine o'clock in the evening, there are very few people here, and only some nearby residents pass by.The two walked side by side on one side of the flagstone trail, with lush forests on both sides of the trail. It rained all day, and the weather was extremely cool, because the battle between Athena and Napoleon VII almost destroyed the Parthenon, never The lights of the extinguished Acropolis were all extinguished as an exception, and from a distance there was only a shadow under the thick haze.The weather was extraordinarily cold under such heavy weather.

Cheng Mo's breathing has not yet calmed down, and every time he pants, he will exhale a large amount of white air. A gust of cold wind blows, the leaves covered with water droplets sway with the wind, and the rain drops on Cheng Mo's face little by little. Being carried away by the wind, Cheng Mo, who only wore a long sleeve and a down jacket, shivered involuntarily.He turned his head towards Athena. Athena's physical fitness was quite strong, and she didn't blush or pant after running for a long distance, and even her breath was barely audible.

For some unknown reason, Cheng Mo, who had regained his freedom, seemed to see Athena's flawless face through a human skin mask in a trance, which made Cheng Mo vigilant. Entanglement, and more importantly, he has an unrealistic view, like a mortal coveting a god.

Athena noticed Cheng Mo's prying eyes, turned her head to look at Cheng Mo, Cheng Mo subconsciously avoided staring at Athena, and pretended to keep looking straight ahead.

"How do you make the gas explode on time?" Athena asked.

"I didn't let the gas explode, it would be too dangerous."

"Then why is there an explosion?"

"I just let the flue explode. Using the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, the gas in the flue forms a strong pressure and breaks through the flue. This kind of explosion is very powerful. However, the flue is inside the wall, so there will not be too much damage." Great danger, but especially loud."

"There are still a lot of cleverness."

Athena's tone was flat, making it hard to figure out whether she was complimenting or sarcastic.Cheng Mo didn't care too much, and asked, "Now we have to find a way to leave Athens immediately. I guess that maybe all the main roads leaving Athens and even Greece are guarded by Napoleon VII. He should be looking for you." right."

"It's not just him! Maybe Baimon and Astaru are also looking for me everywhere, let's not take risks in places where it is easy to be caught."

"Other problems are easy to solve now. The key is that neither of us has a penny." Cheng Mo smiled bitterly and said, "Did you bring a bank card or mobile phone when you came out?"

"Do you still have to bring these yourself?" Athena was suspicious at first, but then relieved, "Oh! By the way, you are a poor boy. I usually have maids and bodyguards with me when I go out, so I don't know how to bring these things by myself."

Cheng Mo could tell that Athena was really confused, and he didn't deliberately mock him. He shrugged his shoulders and glanced at Athena's black rucksack, "Apart from Ouroboros, is there nothing in your bag that can Something in exchange for money?"

"Besides Ouroboros, it's just the laptop and the hard drive where I store my research materials."

Cheng Mo asked unwillingly: "As a woman, you don't have any diamonds, jewelry, or luxury goods?"

Athena shook her head, without disdain or embarrassment on her face.

Cheng Mo said helplessly: "Okay! It seems that the two of us have to be thieves and rob houses. Let's get some money first."

Athena did not reject Cheng Mo's proposal at all, but raised an objection, "Is the robbery too inefficient and too easy to be discovered?"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Athena said as a matter of course: "Rob the bank! This way, you don't have to rob the jewelry and sell it again, and you don't have to rob the next one if you don't have enough money. It's too troublesome. Robbing the bank is more direct and quicker. "

"Using a carrier to rob a bank? Is there a risk of being discovered?"

Athena asked puzzled, "You still need a carrier to rob a bank?"

Cheng Mo felt a little pain in the brain, and Xin Dao, to the main body, robbery and bank robbery are completely two concepts, and the degree of danger is not the same as whispering.But he knew that safety was irrelevant to Athena, so he could only say: "It seems that I am too worthless, and I can't find any reason to refute it."

"That's the decision. Let's go to the street to find a bank, and then go directly to the vault later."
