Chapter 373: 373, Leader of Beak Country’s anti-union organization – Cindy Doppler_1
The reason why he set the [Hearthstone] here was that a legendary human figure of his past life — [Ice Red Tea] was besieged by the Skuru people in this town and eventually fell, still only 19 years old.
Su Yu comes here, on one hand, to commemorate the pioneers, and on the other hand, to remind himself: not to be lulled by the past smooth-sailing life. In this dangerous world, it’s possible to die at any moment, so one must always stay vigilant.
He returned to Beak City around 8 in the evening.
In a secluded, deserted corner, without any surveillance cameras, Su Yu used the [Invisibility Skill] to make himself unseen and walked towards the wealthy area in the west of the city.
“Hey, Nemesis, what are you planning?” Morning Star asked from its perch on Su Yu’s shoulder.
She’s in stealth mode right now, unable to play with her phone, so she only has chatting with Su Yu to relieve her boredom.
“I’m looking for a Skuru.”
“Who is it?”
“His name is ‘Cindy Doppler’, the leader of the ‘Anti-Alliance Organization’ party.”
“Oh~ So it’s him. But is it appropriate for you to go straight to his place like this?”
“Why not? Just watch me.”
The two chatted while they walked deeper into the wealthy area.
Su Yu followed a route from his memory.
Finally, he successfully found Cindy Doppler’s residence— a mansion located by the lake.
There are many security staff and large security devices, like Psychic Energy Arrays, around the mansion.
However, these security measures are all targeted at native assassins of Skuru Star, and are pointless against Su Yu who is an… cough cough, alien visitor.
With his [Invisibility Skill], he confidently walked through the front gate into the mansion. The security staff outside didn’t notice anything.
…
Half an hour later, a luxurious, pitch-black floating car pulled into the gate and stopped in the garden in front of the house.
Cindy Doppler, who had been busy all day, got off the car.
He made a signal to the driver to park the car, then called out loudly to the house, “Honey, I’m home!”
“Darling, you’re finally back! Why are you so late today? The kids are already asleep.”
A gentle Skuru woman came out of the house, took the coat from her husband, and hung it on a coat rack by the door.
“It’s all because of entertaining guests.” Cindy Doppler, slightly drunk now, kissed his wife, “I had dinner with Lun Kete’s Foreign Minister, Jeff, discussing the capture of ‘Number One’. Haha, you don’t know how hard Jeff’s face looked when we talked about ‘Number One’!”
“‘Number One’? Is that the Blue Star human?” His wife casually asked.
She wasn’t particularly concerned about this. She headed towards the kitchen, “Do you want to eat first while dinner is still warm? Or do you want to take a bath first?”
At this moment, Cindy Doppler suddenly embraced his wife from behind, “The kids are asleep, right?”
“Yes.”
“Why don’t we go back to our room first…” Fueled by the stimulating effect of the alcohol, Cindy Doppler’s mind is filled with some indescribable plans.
But at this moment, a voice appeared in his mind, “Ahem, Mr. Cindy, hold on, please. This is ‘Number One’, I am currently in your little son’s room on the third floor, and I want to see you.”
Cindy Doppler: “!!!”
He was instantly sober, and his previous arousal disappeared abruptly.
His wife was clueless about this.
Her face flushed red, she tried to smack her husband’s face.
Cindy hastily blocked.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t you want to…” His wife looked puzzled.
“Sorry, darling, I suddenly remembered that there’s still some business I need to handle. Let’s do what we wanted to do later after I finish this business.” Cindy Doppler quickly explained and hurriedly ran towards the staircase.
…
In the little son’s room on the third floor.
Cindy Doppler sternly surveyed Su Yu, who had turned into a human form, his seriousness almost tangible.
“You’re ‘Number One’?” Seeing Su Yu’s true face, he was quite certain that it was the real person.
Only exceptionally high-ranking Skurus had seen images of Blue Star humans. This “exceptionally high-ranking” refers to either the head of a country or spiritual masters above Level 6 in the Sanctuary. Ordinary Skurus wouldn’t be able to pretend to be “Number One”.
Additionally, what would anyone gain from impersonating “Number One”? He’s an international fugitive. Unless they were bored of living, no one would dare to impersonate him.
So, the moment he saw Su Yu, Cindy Doppler had confirmed Su Yu was the real person.
“That’s correct, I’m Number One. This is my partner, Morning Star,” Su Yu introduced Morning Star who was on his shoulder.
Morning Star maintained its yellow-skinned little electric mouse form, calling out to Cindy Doppler: “Pika pikachu.”
Cindy Doppler: “…”
He clearly remembered Morning Star transforming into the [Star Core Dragon] with its imposing figure, was this big guy actually pretending to be a native creature and acting cute now?
But Cindy Doppler didn’t say anything.
He straightened his tie, took a deep breath, and looked at Su Yu solemnly, “Mr. ‘Number One’, what brings you to me? And…”
His gaze fell on his sleeping little son on the bed, worry apparent on his face.
He himself was not afraid of Su Yu. Though he was only a Level 5 Spiritual Master, he had several life-saving means and was confident that he could escape from Su Yu.
But his family… He didn’t want to act recklessly and ruin his family.
Su Yu saw his worry and smiled, “Don’t worry, I know that the majority of the Beak country’s citizens oppose the war between our two planets. I am here with the intention to cooperate.
Of course, I wouldn’t harm your family. From a rational point of view, of course, I wouldn’t want to make enemies for myself.”
Cindy Doppler thought it made sense.
So, he extended a hand to Su Yu to gesture him to speak, “Then this honorable guest, this is not the proper place to talk. Shall we go to the reception room next door for a detailed discussion?”
“Of course.” Su Yu nodded, following Cindy Doppler out of his little son’s room.
…
Reception room on the third floor of Cindy Doppler’s home.
Cindy first activated the Psychic Energy Array in the reception room that blocks sound, then poured a drink for Su Yu.
He introduced, “This is our Skuru star’s specialty, made from the freshly squeezed juice of ‘Lake insects’ from the Sunshine Insect Farm located at 45 degrees north latitude. You can have a taste.”
Su Yu took the insect juice. Full of sticky, green liquid, it had the unique fishy smell of insects.
Of course, he wouldn’t drink the insect juice.
He politely left the insect juice on the coffee table in front of him. He took out a bottle of Coke from his backpack and handed it to Cindy Doppler:
“This is a special drink from our Blue Star. I think you can have a taste.”
