The man is about 40 to [-] years old, with bronze skin, dark coffee-colored hair tied with a rubber band and hanging down to his right shoulder, dressed in simple clothes, and his exposed arm muscles are angry.

"It really is you." Zhuo Xi said leisurely.

"It seems that your identity is not simple." Teng Gu sat leisurely in the chair with an unfathomable expression: "You are not just a simple imperial researcher."

"Oh? How do you know?" Zhuoxi asked.

Teng Gu raised a smile, slightly sinister: "Of course it's because ordinary people can't see Lao Tzu's photos in the imperial database at all."

Zhuo Xi: "Yes. But where are you going to take me? Now that you know that my identity is not simple, you dare to do this?"

"No way." Teng Gu spread his hands and made a helpless gesture: "Who asked someone to call you by name. Why don't you guess again, who wanted you?"

At this time, Zhuo Xi had roughly sorted out everything in his mind, including everything that happened after the lights in the banquet hall went out.

At that time, the surroundings were pitch black, and while there were many people, someone quietly touched behind him, stunned him with a tool with electric voltage, and then took him away.

Then, the man handed him over to these interstellar pirates.

Reminiscent of the fact that the only ones who were able to sneak into the crowd in the banquet hall during the chaos were the guards in the palace.And why would an ordinary guard do this?Most likely, it was manipulated by people.

Thinking of this, he had an answer to the person behind the scenes.

"It's Baihong, right." He said.

"Pa-pa" two times, Teng Gu's eyes showed admiration, and he said to him: "You are really smart, it seems that the boy surnamed Bai called you by name, and it is not without reason."

"..." Zhuo Xi thought to himself, these pirates probably didn't know who he was, they just made some deal with Bai Hong to help Bai Hong take him there.

But...he lowered his head, "What did you put around my neck?"

He noticed that 013 hadn't made a sound until now, and the group of pirates didn't seem to care about the positioning chip on him at all, which only showed that there was something blocking all of this on him now.

And this thing—it seemed to be right around his neck.

He lowered his head as hard as he could, but he didn't see that thing. He could only feel a slightly cool thing around his neck, which was a bit hard, like a collar.

The pirate members on the opposite side laughed again, Teng Gu glanced at them casually, and they restrained themselves a little.

Teng Gu said: "The surname Bai asked us to wear it for you. He said that if you don't do this, you will run away soon."

"Boss, is it true or not, just this little boy?" The big man who picked off the black cloth from Zhuoxi's eyes just now expressed his doubts. He didn't believe that Zhuoxi could run away by himself, and he would probably cry for a long time if he punched him.

Teng Gu just glanced at him and didn't answer him.

He didn't intend to talk to Zhuo Xi anymore, and was about to turn his chair back when he heard the young man behind him say:

"What deal did Bai Hong make with you guys? What did he exchange for me?"

"?" Teng Gu's interest was aroused by him again, "How do you know everything?"

"Tell me, let me see how much I'm worth." The young man said seriously.

"I have to say, you are quite valuable." Teng Gu replied slowly: "He gave us a resource-rich ore planet, which is very generous, but the condition is that it must be safe and must be caught alive to bring him back."

Zhuo Xi caught the point: "Take it back? Take it to Bai Hong?"

"Don't ask me about that, the place of the transaction will naturally not be told to you." Teng Gu winked at the people around him, "Blindfold his eyes."

"Wait." Zhuo Xi said, "I know that the ships of your interstellar pirates have never been recorded in the empire system, so you can come and go freely as you like, but have you ever thought that this is what you rely on for survival? Are you afraid that after you catch me this time, something will be left behind? Taking such a big risk to work for Baihong, are you afraid that he will sell you?"

Tengu laughed.

"The kid named Bai from the Abyss Organization is definitely not a good person, but it's good to make deals with him occasionally. I don't plan to mix with him in the future, young man, no matter what you say, this deal , we must keep our promise. Otherwise, being hunted down by the abyss organization is no less than being wanted by the empire, don't you think?"

Teng Gu is a sober person, and he knows exactly what he wants, he was not persuaded by Zhuo Xi.Having been outside for so many years, the experience is not in vain.

Zhuoxi also understood that he could not make the other party feel compassion, and tried to provoke Teng Gu and Bai Hong, but he failed.

This is a mature and stable leader, and he underestimated the other party.

His eyes were covered with black cloth again, and he fell into deep thought.

Why did Bai Hong arrest him?Is it because of Project Dawn?Or should he be used to control Qin Heng?

Or, implant that virus into him and turn him into his puppet?

He thought of many possibilities.

Although his eyes were blindfolded, his hands were handcuffed, and he was wearing a collar that blocked information, the young man sitting on the ground seemed to be well-behaved, and he did not feel cowardly at all because of his situation.

Teng Gu couldn't help but look at him once or twice, but this doesn't mean that he will violate the deal he made.

The starship finally entered the sky above a certain planet. Zhuoxi felt that the starship was slowly landing. It should have reached its destination and was about to land.

A big man walked over with heavy footsteps and lifted him up.

"Boss, is Bai really waiting for us down there? He won't play tricks, right? This little boy is what he wants?"

The big man stared at Zhuoxi and looked left and right, but he didn't see anything special about him.

It's a bit strange that General Chihu of the dignified Abyss organization would use such a rich planet to make this deal with them.

"Why are you asking so many questions? Anyway, you just need to know that this little boy is worth more than you, an old cucumber." The companion laughed and bumped him with his arm.

"Cut!" The big man raised his chin nonchalantly.

"..." Zhuo Xi frowned unconsciously again, nothing else, the smell of this big man was indeed too strong.

The starship quickly docked on the ground, the hatch was opened, and the dazzling light came in, and Zhuoxi could feel it through the black cloth.

The big man took him out.

Zhuoxi heard Teng Gu's voice beside him: "General, the matter is over, how are you doing, did you not disappoint?"

Then there was Bai Hong's smiling voice: "I'm very satisfied. As expected of an interstellar pirate, I always do things safely."

Teng Gu: "Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand, general, what about the agreed remuneration?"

"Of course the reward is ready." Bai Hong smiled and said, "Come here, hand over the planetary transfer letter to Mr. Teng Gu."

Teng Gu took the transfer letter, opened it, read it carefully, and then nodded to his own person.

"Give him the man."

"Yes, boss!" The big man holding Zhuoxi's arm replied, and then pushed Zhuoxi forward.

Zhuo Xi was pushed forward by that force and staggered a few steps forward. Bai Hong looked at him with a smile, and was about to reach out to help him, when he saw the young man turn around, lift his leg, and quickly and ruthlessly gave the big man a certain vulnerable part. Here comes a kick.

"...Aw!" The wailing sound of the big man cut through the somewhat tense atmosphere, and everyone paused, looking at the lower body of the big man with a little sympathy.

At the same time, they were also surprised that the young man was able to find the location so accurately even though his eyes were blindfolded, it was simply too ruthless!

The big man stared at Zhuo Xi fiercely, he seemed to want to come up and give him a few punches, but he was stopped by Bai Hong's eyes - Bai Hong sensed his meaning and looked at him a little coldly.

"Damn!" The big man had no choice but to walk back to the starship cursing.

Teng Gu and the other pirates also went back, and the big man's companions still laughed and teased him.

"Is it very painful, I see you turning into a duck, haha!"

"Try to get kicked by that kid!" The big man said speechlessly, what's the matter!Why is it always him who gets hurt!

On the ground, Bai Hong walked up to the young man with a smile on his face, and the people around him looked nervous and wanted to stop him: After all, the young man did that aggressive behavior just now, and they were a little afraid that Zhuo Xi would give Bai Hong another chance. Come on.

"It's okay." Bai Hong said with a light smile, as if he was answering them, and it seemed to be comforting words to the young man: "Don't be nervous, I just invite you to be a guest, there is no other purpose."

After speaking, he put his right hand on the young man's wrist, leading him to a certain direction.

"Let go." Zhuo Xi said coldly.

"Don't be ignorant!" The subordinate angrily scolded him, "The one in front of you is our general!"

"Oh?" The young man said without emotion, "General? But to me, he is just a betrayer, a liar."

"..." Bai Hong pursed his lips, and gave his subordinate a warning look, signaling him not to speak again.

"You go back."

"But..." The subordinate wanted to say something, but Bai Hong said again: "Did you hear me, I told you to back down."

"……Yes."

Bai Hong took Zhuo Xi to a ship, helped him to sit down, and then sat in the driver's seat.

"Since it's agreed to be a guest, it's natural to take you to my usual place. Sit down firmly. Remember to tell me if you need anything."

Zhuo Xi didn't answer him, but turned his face to the other side.

Bai Hong looked at him, not annoyed, smiled kindly, and started the ship.

"Are you wearing this thing for me to insult me?" Zhuo Xi said abruptly.

Bai Hong turned his head to look at him, his eyes fell on the black collar around the young man's neck, and he smiled: "No, how could it be, you may not know, but I researched this thing carefully, so that Qin Heng could not find it. You, how much work did I spend?"

"That's really hard work for you." The young man's voice was cold, "You arrested me, not just as a guest, right? After all, it was to deal with the empire."

"Who knows?" Bai Hong still chuckled, "But I think it is necessary for me to let you see what I am doing and what achievements I have made. After all, this is what we have agreed upon. ,Is not it?"
