"No name"
What's a good name for him/her?
You can call me Protector.
"Protector!" Xu Fu opened his mouth, somewhat dissatisfied: "That sounds awful, like a computer crashing. How about I give you a name?"
You can't call me by my first name.
"Who?"
"Viren!"
"I'll kill her, won't I?"
"Basically, Velen is my master, and I must protect her."
Xu Fu grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth: "This means you're prepared to go to hell with her."
After a brief pause, the voice spoke again: "My first task is to protect Her Majesty the Great Queen, and my second task is to protect Velen. If the first and second tasks conflict, the second task will be automatically cancelled."
Xu Fu suddenly realized something, and his smile grew brighter and brighter, because he realized something interesting: this so-called spiritual center might very well become a "fence-sitter".
Of course, this is just a hypothesis and has not been confirmed.
"Then you're on our side."
"I will always support Her Majesty the Queen."
Xu Fu laughed out loud and tossed the incubator to Carol: "Congratulations, you've gained another loyal follower."
A look of confusion crossed the girl's face. The next second, before she could even process what she had just heard, her face turned deathly pale. "I don't know..."
She told me that Viren would hunt down our family.
...
Since Xu Fuliang's death, the old man at the Xiao family manor has become irritable. He beats people indiscriminately at the slightest provocation, and he verbally abuses everyone in the house, even Linda, who is a guest.
Strangely, the usually unruly and disobedient Kryptonian remained silent in the face of the old man's reprimand, which greatly alarmed Ling Xuzi, who was the "master".
Not only him, but Lin Fu, who had learned of the girl's strength, was also taken aback. Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not occur as expected. The old man said a few words with great confidence and then left with his cane. Linda, on the other hand, was panting heavily as she dragged her "master" to the backyard to practice martial arts.
After repeated training, Ling Xuzi finally created a martial arts manual suitable for Kryptonians, but to be honest, he had no confidence in the effectiveness of the manual.
The first step in cultivating internal breathing is to open up the meridians. Meridians are connected to nerves, and the slightest carelessness can cause irreversible damage to the body. Therefore, opening up the meridians must be done strictly according to the secret manual, without the slightest mistake.
At first, Lin Xiuzi thought so too, but when he saw that Linda's recovery ability far exceeded his, he suddenly had a new idea.
My birth mother is an alien, and her physical structure is significantly different from that of Earthlings. Who knows how her meridians are distributed? Since that's the case, why not mobilize all our forces and open up all the meridians in her body? Open up the meridians, open up the meridians, and even a fool can become a master.
Lin Xiuzi thought he was too clever for coming up with such a brilliant idea.
Thus, Linda, who had completely misunderstood the martial arts terminology, began to open up the meridians in her body according to the "master's" instructions.
This process is more troublesome than expected because of its persistence; the meridians that are forcibly opened will always return to their original state. It took several hours to stabilize just one meridian in the hand.
Linda was truly at a loss. She saw that it was getting dark and that her "master" had already gone back to the villa for dinner. She hadn't taken more than a few steps when she suddenly stopped.
Lin Xiuzi asked: What happened?
Linda was furious.
"You go in first, I need to take care of something."
Ling Xiuzi responded and obediently left, turning into the corridor. Then, she moved and hid in the bushes to observe secretly.
Vellan hovered in the air, looking at the brightly lit villa where that damned Earthling Xu Fu-Xiao lived.
Okay, let's kidnap your family members and use them as human shields, then see how arrogant you can be.
Just then, a feeling of a wild beast watching him surged from the depths of his soul. Vellan hurriedly lowered his head, and a beautiful blonde girl with blue eyes stood at the far end of his field of vision, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, her eyes half-smiling, carrying undisguised mockery.
Velen: "..."
After a moment of silence, he roared, "You can see me!"
Linda grinned: "What do you think?"
Viren took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to attack, and said.
"Who are you? What is your relationship with Xu Fu and Xiao?"
"We've been on a few dates, that's all. What about you?"
"He and I are enemies."
Linda suddenly realized, "So you've come for revenge!"
"Fine, if you don't want to get hurt, stay away. This is none of your business."
Despite the oppressive aura evoked by the girl, Vellan's tone sounded particularly condescending.
“That won’t do. I’m eating and living well, I can’t just ignore everything. How about this, we do…” Linda held up her finger and smiled, “I’ll stand here and you stand there and you stand there and you can withstand one of my air raids. If you go on strike, I’ll leave and ignore everything.”
Velen remained silent, pondering the various gains and losses in his mind, before speaking in a deep voice.
You must keep your promise.
“Don’t worry.” Linda rolled up her sleeves, bent her knees slightly, and made a fist. “I’m not the kind of person who promises to punch once and then never does it again.”
Chapter 1048 Joining the Sky Eye Society?
Amanda was not an unprepared adventurer. She had done extensive research on Xu Fu's life experiences and compiled a 5000-word document containing all of Xu Fu's social experiences over the past 17 years. The reason she made such an impulsive move was because she did not want Fogel to understand her true intentions. However, she did not realize that Xu Fu seemed to know her very well as well.
Amanda took out her phone and threw it on the table.
"The phone number is Stephen Martin's. He's the FBI director in Beach City. You can call him now and tell him I'm impersonating an FBI agent."
Xu Fu smiled and shook his head: "Only a man who doesn't care about feelings would tattle on you behind your back."
"Angie, take two people out for coffee."
Angie's secretary walked up to Amanda's two subordinates and made an inviting gesture. The two subordinates looked at their boss, received a response, and then led Angie away.
Once they left, the conference room felt much emptier. Xu Fu took out an unlit cigar, put it to his nose, and began to sniff it.
"I don't like dealing with government agents, especially those of unknown origin, so let's get straight to the point: what is the purpose of my search?"
Amanda took out a photo and placed it on the table.
Who is the person in the photo?
Xu Fu lowered his gaze and chuckled softly, "Such a sexy and beautiful woman is a rare sight. If you recognize me, you can introduce me to her."
Amanda leaned forward, her cold, stiff face radiating a faint sense of oppression, while
“Xu Fu-Xiao, I am not only representing the FBI, but also the government of the United States. This is a formal interrogation. If you do not answer, your girlfriend Carol Ferris will receive a special arrest warrant issued by the White House, and she will answer this question in prison.”
Can I take your words as a threat?
So what if it is?
Xu Fu grinned and shook his head: "Ever since I founded the Young Master Gang, I've been threatened time and time again. This is the first time you've threatened me so directly."
"In principle, I will eliminate anyone who dares to threaten me, but since you are a woman, I've decided to give you a chance."
Xu Fu shifted his posture and slowly said, "Ferris Aerospace has had a 20-year partnership with the Department of Defense. Carol's father, Carl Ferris, has close ties with political figures from both parties and has funded the current president..."
"The United States is a place where profit is everything. Do you really think that just because you have so much power of dubious origin, you can send the Ferris family's daughter to prison without any evidence?"
I want to know where your blind confidence comes from.
Xu Fu took the photo and put it in his pocket.
"This painting is nice, I'll keep it. Do you have any others?"
Amanda pushed the table, stood up, and stared at Xu Fu with her cold eyes.
"You're right. With the power I have, I can't really put Carol Ferras in prison. But don't forget, I'm not alone. I have many powerful supporters. Carol Ferras is the Purple Light Woman, a violent and cold-blooded criminal. Whether she admits it or not, the higher-ups will think so. For terrorists who threaten national security, no matter who her father is or how powerful her past is, she cannot escape punishment. That's... the rule."
"From today onwards, Ferris Airlines and the Ministry of Defense will no longer have a cooperative relationship, and all orders have been cancelled."
"How long can a sixty-year-old live, in Karl Ferras's view?"
Amanda spoke nearly a hundred words in one breath without pausing, her tone cold and her face resolute, giving off a powerful sense of oppression. If an ordinary person were here, they would probably be scared out of their wits. Unfortunately, the person in front of her was not an ordinary citizen, but a mafia boss whose life and death were at stake for thousands of people.
Xu Fu lit a cigar, took a deep drag, and then...
"I understand. You are not here to negotiate, but to declare war on me."
"Madam, I'll ask you one last time: Do you really want to declare war on me?"
The calm words echoed in the room, without the slightest hesitation. Amanda curled her lip in disdain, about to speak, when suddenly she remembered the fate of the Seaside City gang leader. A chill inexplicably crept up her spine, and the words stuck in her throat. She could only cough.
"I represent the White House; if you don't cooperate with me, something bad will happen."
"White House!"
Xu Fu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "There are so many people in the White House, which one are you talking about?"
"This is confidential; you don't need to know."
Xu Fu stretched out his finger and shook it twice.
“Dick Cheney, the man behind you, Vice President, the man behind you…”
