Chapter 816: I Already Agreed to Cooperate
“Creak…”
As the door slowly closed, a trace of unease flashed across the face of the sunglasses man. In the moments before following Ling Mo into the room, many thoughts had raced through his mind, but he hadn’t figured out what to say.
A few days earlier, Ling Mo had asked him about the route, and now it was clear that what he was interested in were those secret details about the granary, the very leverage the sunglasses man depended on for survival. Although he wasn’t sure why Ling Mo hadn’t handed him over immediately, or even chosen to return to Falcon right away, and instead brought him to this remote, uninhabited place, that wasn’t his main concern.
All he could think about at the moment was: Does he really want to sell himself out?
This feeling was quite strange. Although his link with his main body had been completely severed due to the increasing distance, the memories in his mind still belonged to the Big Boss. When it came to betraying himself, he was momentarily at a loss…
At this point, the sunglasses man had lost all of his previous arrogance. On one hand, it was because he had chosen to temporarily submit, but on the other, it was because of the immense frustration brought on by today’s events. This depressive emotion immediately surged to a boiling point, making him feel like spitting blood when Ling Mo spoke:
“Don’t just stand there, sit. You’ve done well this time.” Ling Mo, uncharacteristically calm, said with a rare touch of warmth. However, as he spoke, he discreetly fished something out of his backpack, looking at the sunglasses man’s head with great interest.
The sunglasses man felt a tightness in his chest: “I’m one of the Big Bosses of Niepan! Can’t you be a little considerate of a captive’s feelings? This is practically a form of prisoner abuse!” As a Big Boss, having to watch the enemy calmly slip away right in front of him was already bad enough, but what if they did so using the route he provided? What if the route was handed over willingly by him?
This wasn’t just bad; it was maddening!
