Chapter 409: To do evil, you must use the identity and name of your enemy
Having decided to sneak out of Napa Harbor tonight, Mo Cheng first asked Isabella and Lilia to go out and buy clothes and food for changing.
In the following time, Mo Cheng asked everyone else to rest first, as it would be troublesome to carry out the operation at night without a good spirit.
At the same time, he looked at the little beggar he met in the Eight Seven Area. An inexplicable look flashed in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"May I have your name?"
The little beggar was stunned for a moment, then pointed at himself and asked, "Are you talking about me?"
"Of course, it's just you and me here."
"Taysai."
Asking the name was the first step in communication. Mo Cheng considered the language and asked, "So Taisai, is there anyone else in your family?"
Tai Sai looked at Mo Cheng in confusion, "What does it mean that there is someone else at home?"
"Is there anyone who can take care of you, or someone you need to take care of? For example, a father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, or younger brothers and sisters?"
"There is no one to take care of." Tai Sai shook his head. "My father was a gangster and was killed during a honey trap. My mother was a prostitute and died of a disease from working too much. I have younger brothers and sisters, but they were sold by my father for money."
Taisai's self-introduction left Mo Cheng silent. He didn't know whether he should comfort Taisai or advise him to be more open-minded.
However, seeing that the other party looked indifferent and didn't seem to care about this matter, Mo Cheng changed the subject and said, "Okay, Taisai. You also saw that the heavy fog before was a means for others to assassinate us. The others are all unlucky people who suffered from it."
"We have committed some crimes and are now wanted by the whole city. We have to find a way to leave this city tonight."
"You've been following us for a while. I don't know if those people will find you and ask for information about us. And if it involves the things we committed, with your identity, you will most likely be arrested and tried as an accomplice. It's basically impossible for you to survive."
"So you have two choices now."
Mo Cheng slowly raised two fingers and said, "The first choice is to leave this city with us. We will give you a sum of money as hush money and let you live in another city."
"The second option is that you hide here and come out after the sun sets tomorrow. I will leave enough food for you to survive until tomorrow night. I will also give you a business card. After tomorrow, you can take this business card to a place to get money. If you want, you can also work there."
Mo Cheng naturally didn't have any industry in Napa Harbor, but the Seranis family did. Although Seranis didn't have many industries in Napa Harbor, it wasn't too difficult to support Taisai.
As he spoke, Mo Cheng suddenly laughed, "Of course, you can also choose to report us to the city guards. Maybe you can get a lot of money, or even become a noble."
Although he was smiling, there was no smile in Mo Cheng's eyes, and he was observing Taisai to see if he had any moment of interest in this proposal.
Taisai didn't say anything. He picked up the last fruit in his hand and started eating it. He had picked it up from a fruit stall on the street before leaving with Mo Cheng and the others.
Mo Cheng did not urge him, but just silently waited for Taisai's answer. Taisai's way of eating was very interesting, he would take small bites each time, chew five times and swallow, a way of eating with minimal consumption, treating eating as a necessary work for survival.
After finishing the fruit in his hand, Taisai looked into Mo Cheng's eyes. His dark eyes were like a winter night, quiet and cold.
"I'm leaving with you."
"Oh..." Mo Cheng dragged out the last syllable. Taisai made a choice that was not wrong. At the same time, the eye contact just now made Mo Cheng have the illusion that he saw himself in the other person.
"Tell me why, and don't try to cheat, or there will be serious consequences."
If the choice just now was to bribe Taisai and give this little beggar who was innocently involved in the incident a chance to live, then Mo Cheng now has some interest in this little guy.
He smelled a smell from the other person.
A taste that is just average, definitely not good.
"I was born in a dark alley. You looked like thugs who were falsely accused of killing a cadre close to the local boss and were in a hurry to leave before being surrounded. If you tell on me, I will die."
Taisai's family never allowed him to go to school, and he couldn't even read, but his long life of struggling in dark alleys gave him his own unique views on many things.
He might not understand what the Aundair delegation was, or what the Lord of Napa Harbor was, but he could understand something from another perspective based on his own experience.
"If I stay here, those people might find me. They will just throw me out and call me the murderer, and then ask me to tell you where you are."
Taisai did not consider that after leaving the city, Mo Cheng and others would kill him in order to keep the secret, or rather, he had already considered it, but leaving with them was the way to allow him to live the longest.
Mo Cheng saw an infinite desire to "live" in those eyes.
"Hey!"
Mo Cheng laughed, holding Taisai's neck with one hand, and took him to the bathroom, "Let me give you a bath first. The smell on your body can be smelled by dogs ten miles away."
First he summoned the ice element, then used the fire element to melt it, and then boiled it. Then, while Mo Cheng was cleaning Taisai, he asked, "You have some brains, would you consider hanging out with me? I'll send you to school, it's better than hanging around like this alone."
Taisai, who was being rubbed hard by Mo Cheng with a worn-out towel that he had torn off from somewhere, didn't say a word. His eyes were deep and dark, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
…
At night, Napa Port was placed under curfew. Except for the official guards, anyone who dared to walk on the street would be pulled aside, beaten with a stick, and then interrogated.
Relying on the power of [Night Hunter] and [Nightmare], Mo Cheng is always able to bypass the patrol team before they find him. Although the power of [Night Devil] and [Source of Chaos] is not suitable for use in front of others, it is really practical.
After many twists and turns, they arrived at the city gate, and as expected, it was heavily guarded.
"Oh, there are quite a few experts here."
Mo Cheng turned his head and said to Isabella , "According to the original plan, I will go to another place to make a scene and attract attention. You guys can escape in the chaos, and I will meet up with you later."
Make a big fuss to attract attention and buy time for others to escape, and then Mo Cheng will leave.
It was a simple plan, but a practical one, and at the same time, only Mo Cheng had the ability to leave safely after the commotion.
After saying that, Mo Cheng disappeared in a flash.
On the other hand, Mo Cheng's image also began to change. Since he wanted to make a big fuss, he naturally had to change his identity.
A tall figure, holding a dark red giant sword, with horns growing on his head and a pair of devil-like wings behind him.
On a quiet night, a deep and destructive voice spread throughout Napa Harbor.
"I am the Darkin, the End of Worlds!"
"I am... Aatrox!"
The extinct scarlet sword energy will bombard the city wall, and the city gate will instantly activate its defense facilities to digest, divert, and even block the extinct sword energy.
"I will bring about your destruction!"
