A moment later..,
Under Liu Xiaojiang's instructions, Windsor and Charles left the residential area that was enough to make anyone forget to return according to some instructions that suddenly appeared on their mobile phones.
Liu Xiaojiang didn't care about the power of these two people. He even considered letting Windsor and Charles regain their freedom immediately. Anyway, he had already obtained legal identities for them through Gao Lian.
Windsor and Charles stayed by the old man's side during this period of time. After all, it could be considered as repaying part of the kindness Liu Xiaojiang gave them …
But under Windsor's strong request, he finally accepted Windsor's loyalty. He only dismissed Charles, who seemed to have the intention to leave, but he didn't really remove his control over Charles. He just pretended and verbally warned him not to act recklessly.
In the end..
He found that although Charles and Windsor left this place together, they didn't really go too far away from this residential area. Instead, they just wandered outside for a few rounds and quickly returned. Then, as if they were afraid of being detected by him, they directly found a place to carefully hide.
Little did he know that..
Charles' every move was still under Liu Xiaojiang's surveillance. It only took a simple thought for all the thoughts in his mind to be unable to escape …
However..,
After Liu Xiaojiang learned of Charles's thoughts through the control, he couldn't help but look at the old man in the room in surprise and said,
"Sir, I didn't expect you to really impress me. Not only are you a rare selfless wise man who is willing to think for others, but it seems that on the road of buying people's hearts... you are also far better than most people in the world."
Hearing this..,
The old man looked at Liu Xiaojiang with some surprise in his eyes. Because according to the plan he discussed with Charles before, it shouldn't be noticed by the other party so quickly.
But after all, he was also used to the storms in this world. Even his own student pointed a gun at his head just now. Naturally, he wouldn't lose his composure in front of Liu Xiaojiang because of such a small matter. In the end, he just shook his head with a smile and said,
"After all, I have also managed many people, and I have to constantly think about the problem of eating for many people. The problem of eating sounds quite simple, but once the number of people involved exceeds the daily necessities, after all, I haven't personally planted crops for many years. Using people … also has to be considered carefully."
"You, on the other hand …"
"If you're really the legendary God, then you've only recently returned to society and yet you're able to make that girl so loyal … Aren't you being too modest?"
"Regarding the problem with the barbarians, I've already reminded you …" Liu Xiaojiang ignored the old man's humility and didn't intend to be too calculative about Charles. Anyway, it didn't matter if Charles was loyal to him or the old man, it wouldn't affect anything.
"Since you're aware of the future and even forced others to acknowledge you, before the gears truly turn, if nothing goes wrong … This should be the last time we meet."
"Furthermore …"
"You're the one who requested this meeting. As for the so-called matter … Perhaps it can also be considered as your last words."
Hearing this,
The old man didn't have the slightest resistance toward his future. Instead, he was curious as to why Liu Xiaojiang seemed so sentimental today. It didn't seem like he was facing the 'public enemy of mankind' at all.
"Woah … Last words? I didn't expect that I would have the chance to say my last words to a God like you. The last moments of my life … are really worth it."
"But, for someone of my age, as long as I haven't done anything wrong in the past, I can accept death … with a clear conscience."
"Furthermore …"
"I'm also fortunate enough to add a handful of firewood to the burning torch at the end of my life. Ha … What else can an old man like me be unwilling to accept?"
Liu Xiaojiang gazed at the old man with his fiery eyes and suddenly felt that he was too cruel. "If I didn't appear, you and those people wouldn't have …"
"Humans will always die …" The old man shook his head and interrupted.
"Although there may be many young people who will be sacrificed in the future who are different from me, I believe that a merciful God like you will at least try to avoid sacrificing those who don't deserve to die …"
"As for the others …"
At this point,
The old man looked out of the window with a complicated glint in his eyes. "Even I can only apologize …"
"In order to obtain something, one has to pay a price …"
"Their sacrifices may not be voluntary, but perhaps they can become the cornerstone of the future. And the sins caused by their unwillingness … Isn't that what an old man like me needs to be responsible for?"
"Even though my life can't be equal to theirs, as long as I can bring those sins to hell … as long as the disgusting horrors like us disappear completely, I believe that people will eventually have the courage to look forward. After all, that's how people have been through life."
"Yinggou, it's actually because of your appearance that our sacrifices are worth it …"
"…" Liu Xiaojiang.
"I know …" The old man suddenly looked into Liu Xiaojiang's eyes. "You're not as cold and heartless as you look. Even if you're a transcendent existence that's different from ordinary people, you're not completely out of the category of 'human'. You still have selfish feelings that are extremely similar to humans."
"However, you're indeed the most suitable candidate. You're very suitable to be a potential threat to everyone. You've been secretly monitoring our actions and suddenly jumping out when they take a detour … You'll tell them that as long as they do this, there will be extremely serious consequences."
"You're more important than me …"
"So, regardless of whether it's out of selfishness or whether it's following the instincts of a creature to survive …"
"In my opinion, the path you've chosen today … is right because this is the only way you can coexist with others and be free in this world. You can also always enjoy the beauty that only appeared because of us."
As he said that..,
The old man even walked up to Liu Xiaojiang with the help of his walking stick. He stretched out his right hand and grabbed Liu Xiaojiang's shoulder.
"Yinggou, the reason why I want to see you for the last time and the reason why I'm willing to become the eternal sinner is naturally only one reason … A condition that you must agree to."
"Promise me …"
"In the future, you must seize the opportunity to disappear and appear reasonably. Become the Yinggou who always bears the fear of people and live on … Promise me!"
"I can die, and 'I' can also die in the future, but Yinggou can never truly disappear … Promise me!"
