Chapter 39
Tick tock...tick tock...tick tock...
The pointer of time is cold and stubborn, never slowing down and waiting for someone to clean up his emotions and make the mask impeccable.It just throws the problem in front of you and keeps going, leaving you standing there helpless.
Zhou Zekai never thought that he would meet Ye Xiu again in this way.He didn't go to the earth, and he didn't go to any planets during his vacation, but they met again unexpectedly, just like when they first met, without any preparation, that figure was reflected on Zhou Zekai's retina.
That's a one-player mission.
Gallifrey is one of the member civilizations of the Shadow Alliance, and it is also the leader. Although most of the soldiers are assigned by the parliament to save the timeline, occasionally, some small tasks from the Shadow Alliance will also be sent. to them.There is no time assassination conspiracy for this kind of mission, and it is not a grand Star Wars. Only one Time Lord is enough to complete it. Even the soldiers of Garifrey regard this kind of mission as a disguised relaxation—of course, Now that we talked about disguise, this mission is of course not the kind of going to some planet for a cutscene. It is still difficult and dangerous, and the scene is not that big.
What Zhou Zekai had to deal with were interstellar pirates.
The opponent has only one pirate spaceship, which is lightweight and has low firepower, but it is fast and has a strong protective shield, which is the standard configuration of interstellar pirates.It's now leaning against a passenger ship that a pirate ship took after it grounded it a few hours ago.At present, the Judoon people of the Shadow Alliance have surrounded the two spaceships, but considering that these pirates have hostages, and one of the hostages is a member of the royal family of a moon satellite, those stupid and single-minded Rhinoceros are rare. Turning the corner did not choose to attack.
When Zhou Zekai arrived, the two sides had been deadlocked for an hour.The rhinoceros showed Zhou Zekai a photo of the key person - in the photo, a girl with twin ponytails was hugging a white long-haired rabbit.
"Okay." Zhou Zekai complied, but for him, rescuing all the hostages can be regarded as completing the task.After taking over the command, he immediately submitted a call application to the pirates.
"What's your request?" There wasn't so much hypocrisy, and as soon as he saw a figure appearing on the screen, Zhou Zekai went straight in.
"Hehe, here comes a sensible person." The pirate leader laughed when he heard this, "If we want to release people, of course we must show some sincerity first, you are much more sensible than those stupid rhinos."
Zhou Zekai ignored the other party's ambiguity: "Money? Items?"
"It's refreshing enough—a hostage counts as 100 million star coins, and I want the equivalent of precious metals. There is also fuel, enough for us to fly out of this galaxy."
Zhou Zekai nodded: "Yes."
The pirate leader squinted his eyes, as if he didn't expect that Zhou Zekai could answer such a big mouth without blinking his eyes-there are more than 300 people on this passenger spaceship including passengers and crew members. Astronomical figures.But then, Zhou Zekai spoke again.
"I want to see the hostage first."
The pirate leader pondered for a while, and then switched the screen to the lobby on the spaceship.Looking at the decoration and furnishings, this is obviously a restaurant, and generally this is the only place that can accommodate the entire spaceship at one time.Zhou Zekai glanced around, the number of people was the same as what he knew, and the key people were also safe... Huh?
Zhou Zekai's eyes widened slightly.
Although this change in expression is extremely subtle, it is inevitable that people who are observant will not notice it. It is absolutely impossible for Zhou Zekai to make such a low-level mistake when performing tasks in the past.But right now, he couldn't control his facial expression at all.
He saw Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu is really too conspicuous, it's not that Zhou Zekai can find Ye Xiu in an instant from the 300-odd people who squeezed into a ball through the screen - no matter how familiar he is with his lover, he won't be so obvious Good eyesight—it was Ye Xiu, who seemed to be isolated by the crowd.Where he was sitting, there was no one around, as if Ye Xiu was some kind of pathogen, he carefully kept a distance.Under such circumstances, relying on his understanding of his lover, Zhou Zekai could recognize him.
"Have you seen enough? There is not one missing, right?"
Zhou Zekai nodded, but still made a further request: "Maybe it's a video, I want a conversation."
"Damn it, you still say you are a cheerful person, why are you such a mother-in-law?" The pirate leader cursed, but unexpectedly did not refuse Zhou Zekai's request, "What to say and what not to say, you decide for yourself, little boy, Otherwise... hehe."
Zhou Zekai didn't say another word of nonsense, but just spoke into the microphone.
"Men in black suits and red ties, please raise your right hand."
In the crowd ten meters away from Ye Xiu, a man was at a loss before raising his right hand tentatively.Zhou Zekai watched Ye Xiu out of the corner of his eye - he just moved his legs and changed his sitting position.
"Are you satisfied now?"
Zhou Zekai nodded: "It takes time to prepare."
"How long? We're not very patient people."
"Four hours." It would take at least an hour in a fully mechanized civilization to transport such a large amount of precious metals, even if they were directly paid to the treasury.And starting from the nearest planet to get here, it takes three hours to say anything in this era.
The other party was obviously aware of the problem, and nodded with satisfaction: "Four hours, one second late... You should know the result, right?"
Zhou Zekai replied indifferently: "Enough."
The communication was cut off, and the rhino behind him was obviously stunned by Zhou Zekai.
"You don't really want to use..."
Zhou Zekai shook his head—these Judoon people are very straightforward and suitable for law enforcement, but...it is true that their brains are not very bright.
Of course, it was impossible for Zhou Zekai to drag so much precious metal to redeem people one by one. In fact, no matter what those interstellar pirates asked for just now, he would agree without hesitation, because he only had two goals: one is to stabilize the other party and let the other party I believe that these hostages are valuable, and when each hostage is directly equated with money, they will definitely not kill the hostages easily. The higher the price the other party asks, the safer the hostages will be; the second purpose is even more obvious. Of course it was enough time to delay.
Zhou Zekai had something in his hands that the pirates would never expect——
Tardis.
As long as there is this time machine with unlimited internal space, Zhou Zekai can sneak into the spaceship without any difficulty.The request to see the hostage just now is actually not only to confirm the safety of the key person, but also to find out the specific location of the hostage so that he can rescue him.
It's just Ye Xiu...
Zhou Zekai closed his eyes tightly, then opened them again, striding into his TARDIS without taking a Judoon with him.

There will be a fancy show of love ahead, everyone get ready...
