Interstellar leader

Chapter 24 Surrender

Uncharacteristically, the Duke of Windsor did not wear his luxurious black formal suit with silver trimmings, but a white casual suit. His golden curly hair was not carefully treated with hairspray, and it looked as soft as a small animal's. fluff.

He leaned lazily against the wall, holding a large bouquet of alfalfa in his hand.Alfalfa in the interstellar era is no longer a dwarf weed. Its palm-sized lavender flowers and elegant heart-shaped leaves are loved by people and become a symbol of success and luck.

Seeing Li Qing open the door and come out, the Duke smiled and handed over the flowers in his hand.

"Celebrate your success."

Li Qing was a little confused.For a moment, he thought that the Duke was pierced by the same soul as he was.

"Shall we go in and talk?" The Duke raised his chin slightly and pointed to the small private meeting room next to him.

Of course Li Qing had no room to refuse, obediently followed him into the room, and locked the door according to his own habits.

"Don't lock the door." Windesa half-lyed on the soft sofa, his blue eyes narrowed slightly.Being alone with this descendant of Basdar actually made him nervous.What is he afraid of?The other party is just a harmless scientist. Even if the other party had the guts to attack him, wouldn't he be able to survive for three minutes before the security came to rescue him?

What Windesa didn't know was that he really couldn't last 3 minutes under Li Qing's hands.

If it were an idiot like Lin, it would be possible to find the Duke desperately, but in the eyes of a rational mathematician, doing that is obviously an idiot among idiots, a hopeless one.

"Okay." Li Qing turned the lock back again, and sat upright opposite the Duke.His sitting posture is full of aristocratic elegance, and no one can fault his etiquette.

"Dear Isaac, I am very satisfied with your recent results. I originally only planned to use your genes for publicity, and maybe it could be used to open Gaia's box, but I have changed my mind now." Windsha With a refreshing smile on his face, he was as kind as a big brother next door, "A genius like you shouldn't be buried in the dust of history, you should be the sharpest sword in the emperor's hand, pointing at you There is no match for it. You know what I mean."

Start recruiting so soon?Really restless, he thought it would be at least a month.Li Qing thought, Windesha really had no reason to worry that he would escape from his control - Basdar's bloodline provided him with an excellent cover, and the Duke took it for granted that the identity certificate that was full of loopholes under scrutiny back then It is to hide the existence of genes.

The genetic data of every newborn baby will be entered into the empire's database at the same time as the identity is registered. As a descendant of Basdar, there is no other choice but to forge the identity.

Even if he is a descendant of Basdar, after so many years, no matter how deep the hatred is, it should disappear. There is only one person left in the family, and revenge is meaningless.With both grace and strength, the duke firmly believed that he could hold Li Qing in his hands and turn him into a powerful supporter.

Windsha never thought about foreign spies from the beginning to the end.This is the blind spot of people's thinking. After all, in the history of the empire, the royal family of the previous dynasty has been completely wiped out. Even if there is a fish that slipped through the net, they can only linger in the unknown corner of the empire.Under the strict search and arrest at the beginning, how could it be possible to escape to Kepler, which had just been founded?

Windesa waited quietly for Li Qing's reply.die, or surrender.The former brings eternal silence and darkness, while the latter brings supreme money and power, and any fool knows how to choose.

"Your Excellency," Li Qing raised his eyes and showed a gentle smile, "Everything is as you wish."

"I don't think it's sincere enough." Windesa stood up, came to Li Qing, and looked down at him, his eyes full of mischievous cunning.

It's not easy to be a spy these days, it seems that the empire's tricks are inevitable.Li Qing sighed in his heart, the expression on his face remained unchanged, he knelt down on one knee without hesitation, clenched his right hand into his heart, looked into the Duke's eyes and said word by word:

"I, Isaac Bastal, pledge my allegiance to you. Your laughter is our honor, your tears our crimes; your enemies are my enemies, your cause is my cause, your Glory is my glory... I entrust my loyalty and dignity to you, and follow you until the end of my life."

Duke Windsor was stunned for two seconds, he didn't expect that he could get the highest standard oath.

The Duke looked carefully at this noble descendant of the previous dynasty. There was no trace of reluctance or fear on his face, and his black eyes were full of calm.A tidal wave of great satisfaction swept over him.A direct descendant of the Basdar family, a man who looks exactly like the all-powerful Emperor Keynes, is kneeling in front of him and swearing to surrender to him.His voice trembled imperceptibly with excitement. "I, Christopher Windsor, accept your allegiance."

Li Qing immediately caught this trace of abnormality.He smiled with satisfaction in his heart.The plan went well, and he finally gained the Duke's trust.This young nobleman thinks he is good at calculating. He thinks that carrots and sticks can make him surrender, but he doesn't know that Li Qing's soul comes from an era when "all men are created equal" has become the truth, and freedom and reason are his credo. .He thought he was considerate, but he was still too naive after all, but Li Qing appreciated this naivety, because it was exactly what he wanted.

The days ahead are long, and he has plenty of time to act slowly with Windesa. He is looking forward to the wonderful expression on Windesa's face when the plan is successful.

Li Qing stood up slowly and sat back to the original place. The Duke poured two glasses of water himself and put one of them in front of Li Qing.There is still a gentle smile on Windesa's handsome face, like a perfect mask, which is full of hypocrisy and darkness after it is uncovered—maybe others will be deceived, but Li Qing will not.The bloody and perverted scene of the man who was cut into countless pieces still vividly appeared in his mind.

"Isaac, I am going to let you take over the 'Wind Sound' project. You should also know that it is not purely computer research. The purpose of my construction is to spy on Elvis' intelligence. He is obsessed all day..." Wen Desha paused suddenly, with a strange look in his eyes, "He is a waste, but his confidant minister Adolf Ann is a ruthless character. I need information, and you will be responsible for the subsequent decryption work and our own encryption work."

What happened to being addicted to masculinity?Isn't it well known?Li Qing felt very strange. The degree of openness in the interstellar era is self-evident. Although you are as straight as you can be, it's not that you don't want to say such a word, right?

"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke." Li Qing replied respectfully while continuing to think about the reason for Windesha's strange behavior just now.

"Just call me by my name."

"Duke..." The ghost knows whether you are pretending to be kind or if you really want to be called by your name.Li Qing thought.

"I said my name."

Well, it shouldn't be an act this time. "Christopher?"

Li Qing never expected how much trouble this name caused.

The smile on the Duke's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a fleeting moment of fear and ensuing rage.His body suddenly tightened, as if he was holding back something, like a string that was about to break when it reached its limit, and it would explode in the next moment.

Before Li Qing could react, he grabbed his collar roughly and dragged him to the ground.His back hit the corner of the table, and clear pain came continuously. Windesa growled in his ear, his voice hoarse and trembling. "Bastard! Don't go by your full name! Don't go by your full name! It's Chris!"

Li Qing was indeed intimidated at first - he had never seen such an unreasonable person in his life.There's no logic at all, it's like a ticking time bomb.To serve this kind of person, it is better to die early and be born sooner.But he soon discovered something was wrong.Windesa seemed to be about to collapse, his whole body was trembling non-stop, tears ran across his cheeks uncontrollably, and fell drop by drop onto the light-colored wooden floor, forming a puddle of water stains, which was exceptionally clear.

"Chris? Calm down, Chris, calm down." Li Qing tried to touch him, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Windesa struggled back in horror as if he had seen some scourge.

"Don't come over!" he yelled.

"Calm down, nothing is happening right now."

"Let me go, please." The Duke obviously lost his mind.

"Let me go, let me go." He pleaded in a low voice, constantly, tears blurred his vision, blurred dreams and reality, past and present, like a ball of silk thread tightly entwined, more and more Tight, he couldn't think and couldn't breathe.

After 1 minute, Windesha finally recovered a little sanity, he got up from the ground while holding onto the edge of the sofa, his face was still as pale as a piece of paper.

Li Qing also stood up from the ground, and that minute seemed like a century.He straightened his wrinkled clothes nonchalantly, looking very calm, but he was thinking about the reason for Windesha's sudden madness.

It's classic PTSD, and it's extraordinarily severe.

Christopher, why did this name become a memory switch enough to drive him crazy?According to the rules of the empire, those who are close to him will only call him Chris, after all, the full name is too long; while others should only use honorific titles.Who the hell, and under what circumstances, would call him Christopher?And why did I trigger this switch? Is it because the voice is very similar?

"Sorry, I lost control." After a long silence, Windesa twitched the corners of his mouth, but he could only reveal a weak smile.Complicated emotions rolled in his heart, he closed his eyes, and he felt extremely ashamed to be exposed in front of his subordinates.

"Then, I'm going to work." Li Qing knew exactly what he should do—disappeared from the Duke's eyes.He still had a calm expression, and when he stepped out of the door, he thoughtfully helped the Duke lock the door.

The moment the crisp electronic sound of locking the door sounded, Windesa grabbed his hair in pain, curled up in a corner like a shrimp, and kept tightening it, as if it would bring some sense of security.He panted heavily, like a dying fish on the beach, and finally he screamed uncontrollably—a silent, silent scream that filled his mind, but stopped at the vocal cords , extremely weird.

"Christopher."

do not come.

"Christopher."

Can anyone help me.

"Christopher."

He figured he couldn't say it.

I want revenge.Windesa gritted his teeth and muttered silently, as if the flames of hatred could evaporate the sea of ​​pain.

I want revenge.

The author has something to say: Poor Duke, I can't bear to abuse him. (No, in fact, you are addicted to abusing him and cannot extricate himself x)

There is still a long way to go for him to abuse and be abused.

It is estimated that some of you have already guessed what the Duke has suffered. After all, your brains have always been bigger than mine, hiahiahia
