Star Wars: The Silver Pledge

Chapter 154 Goodwill

The gray-haired veteran walked first, and said as he walked, "You will be in charge of this later, this is the entrance of Tianxuan Yudong, please take good care of it."

After the words were settled, the veteran stopped and turned around.

Sean was still standing in the elevator, and did not follow the veteran into the bright silver underground space.

"What's the matter, what are you doing?"

Xiao En asked: "This is not the underground passage of Tianxuan Yudong?"

Hearing Xiao En's question, the gray-haired veteran couldn't help but frowned: "What are you talking about?"

Xiao En said coldly: "It took 1 minute and 20 seconds for the elevator to sink to a stop, with an average speed of 15 meters per second. You are not going to tell me that the foundation of Tianxuan Yudong is more than 1,000 meters deep? "

Speaking of this, Sean simply dragged the blaster behind his back to his chest, and pointed the gun directly at the gray-haired veteran.

"What is this place?"

The gray-haired veteran was silent for a while, then sighed: "As expected of Xiao An's friend, you are more sensitive than I expected."

Hearing the word "Xiao'an", Xiao En's heart moved, and then a guess that was almost absurd at first thought, but reasonable after further study.

Xiaoan...it should refer to Anping, the captain of the Red Xing Squad, right? Could this gray-haired veteran be Anping and Lu Nan's friend?

At this time, I only heard the veteran say again: "When ordinary people are highly nervous, their sense of time will be completely distorted, and even a short second will feel extraordinarily long. It will come down to your own illusion. People like you who accurately measure time and report it with confidence are really rare."

Xiao En's heart sank when he heard this, because the other party was already clearly answering his own question: This is indeed not the underground passage of Tianxuan Yudong, this elevator brought him into a trap.

For a moment, Sean just wanted to pull the trigger without hesitation, kill this unpredictable veteran on the spot, and then go out with all his strength!

"Kill me, the bomb in the elevator shaft will detonate immediately, and you will be completely trapped in this confined space. Well, don't be so nervous. If I want to harm you, I will call you at any time along the way. You It’s hard to fly with wings, isn’t it?”

Sean didn't comment on this, but just stared at the scar on the gray-haired veteran's face, trying to capture his psychological activities from the other's micro-expressions.

However, the other party did not show any flaws, that vicissitudes of face, like a tattered man-made mask, did not carry the slightest sincerity, and made it impossible to judge his heart.

"You are from the Silver Knights, to be precise, from the Red Apricot Squad, right?"

These words finally shocked Sean, and the blaster in his hand dropped.

This gray-haired veteran actually knows his identity?

"Heh, of course you are a member of the Red Xing Squad, and only after being influenced by those bold people, would you choose to go against the current in a desperate situation and run to Tianxuan Yudong. You want to control Zhang Jincheng, Then use him to find a way to get back to [Xun], right? It’s exactly the same as Anping and the others back then.”

Hearing this, Sean vaguely caught a hint of kindness in the other party's words, and considering that if the other party really harbored malicious intentions, there would be too many mobile phone opportunities along the way... Sean decided to put aside his hostility for the time being, and walked out of the elevator, Came to this silver bright underground square.

Unsurprisingly, this is of course not the underground passage of Tianxuan Yudong, but a completely enclosed space. When it was designed and built, it was probably used as a warehouse. The interior space was square and square, and it was extraordinarily upright. The surrounding area was tightly sealed by thick metal plates, leaving only a few narrow ventilation ducts, the diameter of which could not accommodate human beings at all. pass.

In other words, apart from the elevator behind him, this is an absolutely confined space.

Whether there is really a bomb in the elevator shaft, Sean does not know. He will not accept the other party's rhetoric completely, nor will he rashly deny it. But no matter what, he is now undoubtedly in a passive situation. The other party knows his origin, and can even see through him in advance that he wants to counterattack Tianxuan Yudong... In this case, impulsiveness is the most meaningless choice.

Sean asked, "Do you know Anping and Lu Nan?"

"Of course, ten years ago, we were teammates who fought side by side..." the veteran said, "but I'm afraid you have no way of verifying what I said. Even if you say the name Xia Jiang to those two people in person, they will never give up." won't admit it."

Sean asked, "Have you turned against each other?"

"To be precise, I betrayed them." Xia Jiang said, "When they were betrayed and abandoned, and it was the most difficult time, my friend chose to stand by. Since then, I have no extravagant hope of getting them." Forgive me, so after seeing you as an old friend... or a friend of the old man, I am very happy in my heart."

Sean pondered for a while, but didn't rush to respond.

Since the other party has the desire to confide, let him have a good talk... No matter how careful the person's words are, they will inevitably lose their words. Even if the rhetoric itself is flawless, information will always be leaked inadvertently in the gestures and even micro-expressions.

Although so far, Xia Jiang gave people the impression that it was like a bright and flawless piece of ice, and there was no expression on his scarred face.

But this calmness has actually allowed Sean to vaguely capture the other party's mood.

While talking endlessly, he was stingy with showing his expression. This restraint just showed that he was nervous.

However, he has clearly taken the initiative, so what else is there to be nervous about?

Are you worried that you will give up on yourself and die together? If he really had this worry, there was no need to personally act as bait to lure himself here. And if he wasn't nervous about himself, what was he nervous about?

When Xiao En's thoughts changed sharply, Xia Jiang said again: "The first meeting between us was not pleasant, but it was our duty at that time, please forgive me."

Sean couldn't help feeling slightly confused: when did he meet this gray-haired man?

However, in a daze, looking at the meticulous standing posture of the gray-haired veteran, a pair of pitch-black armor suddenly appeared in Xiao En's mind... After looking closely, Xiao En was shocked to realize that the figure of this veteran was exactly the same as that man!

"It's you?" The Jedi apprentice took a deep breath.

Xia Jiang finally showed a smile: "Sure enough, even you didn't recognize me. Many times, a person only needs to shave and change his clothes, and immediately he becomes completely different, doesn't he?"

While speaking, Xia Jiang touched his eyebrows deliberately, as if laughing at Xiao En's disguise.
