Chapter 163 The True Face of a Man?
Chapter 163 The True Face of a Man?
He Suining, with half a piece of bread in her mouth, turned her head and looked over. A young man walked over, his face beaming with a happy smile.
He picked up his tray and pulled out the chair next to her, then sat down.
"I admire you so much! You're all newcomers, how come you're so amazing?" He kept praising you. "I wanted to get to know you back then, but you finished your mission and left quickly. I didn't expect to see you in the cafeteria today. Oh, right, my name is Liu He, you can just call me Xiao Liu."
He Suining gave a perfunctory smile.
Mo across from him remained silent, eating the rice on his plate with his head down.
Liu He chattered on and on.
Talking and talking.
He looked at Mo across from him.
It was just a casual glance, subconsciously, because he had noticed from the beginning that He Suining had come in with a man.
He was very tall, which gave people a sense of pressure.
He's only 175cm tall, and it took him a long time to mentally prepare himself for this.
Look at it this way.
Mo seemed to sense his gaze and tilted her head to look at him. Her face was expressionless, but a faint sense of gloom settled over her fair and even slightly handsome features.
He suddenly smiled slightly at him.
But it wasn't a normal smile; his thin lips were slightly parted, like a snake flicking its tongue.
Its dark pupils stared straight at him, treating him like prey. Within those seemingly small pupils lay a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
Liu He froze.
My neck and body felt ice-cold.
He had already died once before arriving here, yet here he felt a fear of being so close to death, a fear he had experienced before.
Gulu.
He swallowed nervously.
Suddenly realizing something, he hurriedly got up.
She picked up the plate from the table and said, "Um, He Suining, I just came over to say hello, that's all. I'll be going now."
He came and went in a hurry, head down.
He Suining stared at his retreating figure, completely bewildered. She looked at Mo across from her with a puzzled expression and said, "He's really a strange person."
Mo smiled shyly.
The dimples that were faintly visible on his cheeks were very cute, highlighting his harmlessness. "Maybe it's because your older sister is too popular, everyone wants to get to know you."
He Suining ate a small piece of crispy pork.
Chew, chew.
"Really?" Back on Azure Star, she had no friends, only teammates.
Speaking of Azure Star, "Manager Zhong said you're from my hometown, so you're also from Azure Star?"
Mo nodded.
He Suining finally realized that the two of them were from the same hometown, and a strange sense of familiarity rose in her heart. She felt much warmer towards him. "I didn't expect that we were really from the same hometown. But since you called me 'sister,' I might be younger than you."
Mo tilted his head innocently. "Really? I am a Level 1 gene awakener, and I am 230 years old this year."
"puff."
He Suining almost spat out the soup in her mouth. After swallowing it with difficulty, she smiled and said, "Okay, I misspoke. I'm 315 years old. You should call me 'sister'."
The two chatted happily.
The broken pieces peeked out from the light blue screen.
Just now when Liu He arrived, although the host did not notice, it saw how terrifying Mo was through the screen.
What kind of look is that?
Hmph, definitely not a good person, watch me scan you.
The broken item immediately turned on the scanner.
A layer of light blue light fell on Mo's body, just as it was activated.
Mo's dark pupils trembled twice, and he slightly raised his eyes.
It looked with perfect accuracy at the spot where the tattered thing was peeking out. Terrified, the round ball of fur turned into a pile of persimmons and collapsed on the ground, pretending it didn't exist.
"Sister, your system seems to be scanning me."
Mo blinked in confusion, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly. "Did I...do something wrong?"
"what?"
He Suining paused for a second, then frowned.
"Hey, you piece of junk, what are you doing?"
Her eyes darted around, and she questioned the broken-down item in front of Mo.
The broken thing groaned and didn't dare to say anything. It wasn't sure who the other party was or what their abilities were. What if someone overheard it? So it simply kept quiet.
He Suining nodded in a perfunctory manner.
Then she gave Mo a perfunctory smile and said, "Sorry, it's me and my junk. Oh, I mean my system is a newbie. It's still a baby and everything is new to it. Please forgive it. It said it didn't mean it."
Mo looked completely unconcerned, as if she didn't take the matter to heart. "It's alright, sister. I was just asking casually."
He switched the chopsticks to the other side, picked up a piece of spicy and sour pork rib, and put it in her bowl. "Sister, why is your system called 'Random'?"
Seeing his gesture that resembled "making up," He Suining neither refused nor picked up the piece of rib.
She casually replied, "I just picked that randomly. What's your system called?"
"Xiao Hei." Mo looked at the untouched rib, his eyes flickering slightly, as if some complex emotion was hidden deep in his pupils. "It was just picked randomly."
He Suining, biting her chopsticks, paused in surprise.
Little Black...
This inevitably reminded her of past events.
*
In the year xx of Azure Star, in the Shaanxi Desert.
Scorching sun.
At midday, the desert felt even hotter. The blazing sun hung in the sky, dazzling and intense; looking up, the heat seemed capable of melting everything.
He Suining led a group of teammates as they struggled to walk through the desert.
The team consisted of both men and women, all drenched in sweat and looking distressed.
"Damn it," one of the men cursed, "those red-tailed scorpions are really good at hiding. We've been searching for three days and still haven't found them."
One of the women, with a ponytail and a small triangular scar at the corner of her eye, wiped the sweat from her forehead and glanced at the man.
Silent.
She glanced again at the God of War, He Suining, who was walking at the very front, his lips pale but without uttering a single complaint.
On the Blue Star.
Everyone was used to calling her General He, and she was popular with the masses and loved by the Queen.
Even they, the soldiers, greatly admired her.
It's been three days.
The Red-tailed Scorpion is still missing. It's unclear why the Queen wants to find it, but it is ultimately her order.
But if things continue like this...
"General."
Wan Zhaoyi swung her arms and strode forward. "Let's turn back. We're running low on water and food. If we continue like this, we might not find the Red-tailed Scorpion and we'll die here."
Hear this.
The other teammates stopped and began to complain.
But no matter how much they complained, they dared not utter a word of complaint against the Queen.
He Suining wore a beautifully patterned mask, made of an unknown material that looked like iron but was remarkably lightweight.
When sunlight shines on it, it reflects a layer of golden threads, and ripples like water.
