Chapter 120 I've been discovered!
Chapter 120 I've been discovered!
Moles was one of the most unremarkable men working for the slave traders.
He lived an ordinary and mundane life every day, occasionally going with his nominal older brother to beat people up.
However, due to his parents' upbringing, he never took action and simply watched silently from the sidelines.
He would only symbolically kick someone lightly if his nominal elder brother called on him to take action.
He continued to make the atonement gestures of the Church of Light and kept reciting the Atonement section of the Church of Light Bible.
This infuriated his nominal elder brother.
But a few days ago, his life changed dramatically.
He clearly remembered that the slave trader called him to his office and personally gave him the task of keeping an eye on someone.
Every day, I would hide behind a tree, observe a small house, record the owner's daily activities, and report back to him.
The tasks are simple, and you can earn a generous sum of money every day. Most importantly, you don't have to fight with anyone.
He even felt that as long as he wasn't discovered, he could do this job for the rest of his life.
However, things don't always go as planned, and today, he was discovered.
After Su Tu's incredibly leisurely voice slowly rang out, Moles paused slightly, as if petrified.
After a long while, he slowly turned his neck like a machine, looking in the direction from which the sound came from behind him.
At a glance, he saw the person he had been observing these past few days sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking at him with a relaxed expression.
Looking at the other person's appearance, Morales felt that this person seemed to be missing a glass of red wine.
He swallowed hard, and cold sweat involuntarily broke out on the back of his neck, sliding down his collar and soaking his clothes.
"Um, um, hello, I'm here, I'm looking at the scenery."
Moles was hesitant to look the other person in the eye, and could only keep shifting his gaze, stammering out a clumsy lie.
It was as if he practically plastered the words "I'm a ghost" all over my forehead.
Su Tu wasn't in a hurry, and just silently watched the person in front of him perform, his fingers rhythmically tapping lightly on the edge of the sofa back.
The relaxed and leisurely scene contrasted sharply with Morales, yet it also put immense pressure on him.
"The scenery here is beautiful, isn't it?"
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, glanced at the setting sun that was only half exposed on the mountainside not far away, and said this sentence as if it were a reference.
Moles glanced at the other person in surprise, and the pressure in his heart was relieved a lot after hearing those words.
But the fear did not diminish at all; in fact, as time went by, the fear continued to spread in my heart and gradually took over.
Cold sweat kept dripping down his back, and he could clearly feel the back of his undershirt clinging tightly to his back.
"Um, I..."
He didn't know what to say, and he stammered, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing his appearance, Su Tu knew that this guy was a nobody among the slave traders and didn't have a high status.
He probably doesn't know many things, so he's of no value.
"Should we just kill him?"
He thought to himself, his gaze fixed on the small fry in front of him with a mocking expression, his mind racing.
In the end, he decided to let the man go and allow him to deliver some information to the slave traders.
If that slave trader is sensible, he should come over in person.
But if they don't know what's good for them, he wouldn't mind going back again to "serve" this slave trader properly.
Having made up his mind, Su Tu didn't make things difficult for the small fry in front of him.
"Alright, get out of here now and go fetch that slave trader."
Su Tu waved his hand impatiently, seemingly not wanting to see the person in front of him, his gaze remaining fixed on the gradually setting sun.
Upon hearing this, Morales felt a great sense of relief and immediately scrambled away, using both his hands and feet to escape.
Within the area enveloped by Su Tu's illusion, Su Tu could clearly sense the direction in which this minor character had left.
Seeing the other person's disheveled appearance, Su Tu's eyes did not show much emotion; he just felt somewhat bored.
In his past life, what he hated most was bullying the weak by taking advantage of their strength and status.
Now, he has become the very thing he used to hate the most, which makes him feel no joy at all.
He even found it too boring, unable to stir his emotions in the slightest.
"Hopefully, these so-called slave traders will know what's good for them."
The slave trader's influence in the East District was still somewhat useful to Su Tu.
If the other party doesn't cooperate, he really doesn't mind getting his hands dirty.
On the other side, Morales ran back to the slave traders' headquarters, panting heavily. As soon as he entered, he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
It's like a drowning person being rescued, wishing they could inhale all the oxygen they could.
When the people around him saw him like this, they all gathered around, their faces full of mockery.
"Hey, isn't that the kind young man? Why are you running so fast? Did someone beat you up?!"
This group of people were unaware that Morales had accepted the mission to monitor Su Tu's avatar.
In addition, I usually don't like the kid. We're all bad people, but you insist on playing the good guy. Doesn't that mean you don't respect us?
So when they saw Morales like this, they all came up and made sarcastic remarks.
However, Morales ignored them and kept repeating the same sentence.
"I've been found out! I've been found out! I've been found out! I've been found out!"
His terrified appearance only fueled the laughter around him, which unsurprisingly attracted the attention of the upper floors.
A gang leader who often took Morales out to fight came downstairs and immediately saw Morales surrounded in the middle.
Especially after seeing him like this, he immediately had a bad feeling and hurriedly shouted angrily at the group of people.
"What the hell are you all doing huddled together? If you're so bored you have nothing better to do, go fight! Don't fucking slack off like this!"
He had accumulated enough prestige over the years, and when he shouted angrily, the group immediately scattered.
Only Morales remained slumped in place, repeating the same sentence over and over again.
The others didn't know that Morales had been assigned to monitor Su Tu, but he did, and he personally went to summon Morales to meet the slave traders.
Judging from his current appearance, he had roughly guessed that the surveillance had been discovered.
Although he didn't know why the slave traders were monitoring this person, he understood that this person was very powerful.
Without hesitation, he immediately had Morales lifted up and hurriedly went upstairs to see the slave traders.
He wasn't entirely clear on the matter and could only inform the slave traders. He didn't know what the specific arrangements would be.
Soon, he and Moles entered the slave trader's room.
Without hesitation, he immediately gave a brief account of the situation, and at this time, Morales recovered as he was being carried upstairs.
"I...he found out!"
This was the first thing Morales said after he came to his senses.
